While Jiang Ning was lost in thought, the car had already stopped in front of the courtyard of the single-family house.
The stone outer wall is about two meters high, but the yard is very large, about five or six hundred square meters.
There is a mobile house in the middle of the yard, with a total of five rooms and a solar power generation device installed on the roof.
This is the home of the chief of Fengcheng base.
Before the disaster it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a construction site shack, but after the disaster it was already top-level treatment.
There was a light on in one of the rooms, and someone hurried out after hearing the noise outside.
He had short hair, dark trousers and a light-colored short-sleeved shirt. He looked to be about 40 years old. "Old Gu, did you pick up Jiang Ning?"
Jiang Ning was slightly startled. It turned out to be Shu Xueqing.
Looking at the way she is dressed at home, it seems that the lovers have finally gotten married.
In the darkness, I couldn't see Gu Tinglin's expression, "Yeah."
Shu Xueqing came over warmly and wanted to help carry the luggage, but she was frightened by something jumping out of the darkness and quickly took two steps back.
Secretary He explained, "Sister Shu, these are the wolves and dogs that Jiang Ning raised."
Raising wolves and dogs in the end times? Shu Xueqing was surprised, but then she thought that Jiang Ning should be living a good life.
As long as Jiang Ning doesn't suffer, Lao Gu can rest assured.
There were only two large mountaineering bags, both of which were carried in Huo Yishen's hands.
"Jiang Ning, you're finally here." Shu Xueqing smiled and walked forward, "It's good to be reunited. Old Gu has been worried about me for the past two years."
She led the group into the house, "I've cleaned up the house, come in quickly."
The room is not big, with an iron bed that is over one meter wide, and the sheets, quilts and pillows are all new.
This is the leader's home. Ordinary people would not even have a half-new towel. It can be seen that he really cares about it.
Jiang Ning's impression of Shu Xueqing was neither good nor bad, but it was also a good choice for her to form a partnership with Gu Tinglin and take care of each other.
There are five rooms, a master bedroom, a kitchen, and a study. The remaining two rooms are occasionally used for office reception, and now they are moved to Jiang Ning and others.
Shu Xueqing cleaned the house very well.
Worried that she didn't care enough, she said attentively, "You must be hungry. I'll make some midnight snacks."
Jiang Ning called her, "We've eaten."
Being a stepmother for the first time, Shu Xueqing was very nervous, fearing that she was not doing enough.
When she was at the base, Jiang Ning even resisted her biological father, let alone her as an outsider.
Standing next to Gu Tinglin, Shu Xueqing did not speak easily, but observed the atmosphere between the father and daughter.
However, his daughter didn't speak, and Gu Tinglin didn't know what to say. He was silent for a long time before he managed to say, "Jiang Ning, if you see anything missing, ask Aunt Xueqing to make it up tomorrow."
Jiang Ning said calmly, "It's already very good."
There was no shortage of food, so Gu Tinglin could only say, "It's getting late, you guys should get some rest."
Shu Xueqing was very considerate, "I'll go boil some water so you can wash your faces and rest. You'll sleep more comfortably."
There is a kettle with some cold water, and it will be brought over quickly.
Huo Yi thanked him deeply and saw his father-in-law off.
I don’t know what the two of them talked in the yard. He came back several minutes later, remembering to close the door.
I was exhausted, covered in dust and sweat, and felt sticky and uncomfortable.
Jiang Ning first took Doudou into the space to take a bath.
After washing, Doudou took Langxin Goulu to the next room to rest.
After turning off the lights, Jiang Ning and Huo Yi went deeper into the space.
After coming out and lying on the bed, she asked, "What did he tell you?"
"I'll ask you how you've been doing these past few years so that I can take good care of you."
It can be seen that Gu Tinglin cares about Jiang Ning very much, but the father-daughter relationship is too distant. He doesn't know how to express his concern, and he is even more worried that it will make her unhappy.
Although he was exhausted and sore all over, Jiang Ning had no desire to sleep at all. "Did you promise him?"
"You are my wife, so it's only natural for me to take care of you." Huo Yishen held her in his arms, "But he does care about you."
Jiang Ning rebelled in his heart, "Are you on his side?"
Huo Yishen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Aning, whether you decide to go or stay, I will respect your decision, but if you don't mind his concern, I hope you can give him a chance."
Humans are emotional animals, and even if she lives two lives, she will have regrets.
“Even without Chief Gu, you can live well, but I hope your life can be more complete, just like you gave me a chance back then, and you don’t have to rush to reject his concern.
There is nothing wrong in letting this world have one more person who cares about us."
The key is that he feels Jiang Ning needs this family affection.
Her personality is not as sharp as it used to be, but she still has many flaws, which are caused by the absence of her parents in her early years.
If I could make up for it, the rest of my life would probably be happier.
"Of course, if you're so resistant, we can always leave."
Jiang Ning didn't say anything. He opened his eyes and looked at the dark ceiling, trying to examine his own heart.
Does she really need this family affection?
On the other side, Gu Tinglin was lying on the bed but he didn't feel sleepy at all.
Shu Xueqing was worried that she hadn't done her job well. "Old Gu, Jiang Ning should have had a good life these past two years. I'm worried that she won't be able to get used to the food at home. How about making some porridge tomorrow morning?"
"Okay." Gu Tinglin doesn't know how to cook. "Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen are both capable. They won't have a bad life. The conditions at the base are a bit poor right now. I'll ask the guards to send some supplies over tomorrow."
Shu Xueqing couldn't make up her mind, "She's new here, does she need me to walk her around?"
But the hospital was just starting out and there was a lot to do.
Gu Tinglin stopped her, "No, she is used to being independent."
Jiang Ning grew up in an orphanage. She is independent and indifferent. Her upbringing makes her resist people who approach her too enthusiastically.
