The afternoon exchange meeting went on as usual, and Cao Wenzon did not bother Lin Jingshu again.
He even changed his position, moving further away from Lin Jingshu.
Huang Chengyu simply disappeared and didn't come to the meeting.
Lin Jingshu was happy about this, and finally no one was disgusted.
Chen Zhuhua also complained to her about this matter in private, saying that someone in Huang Chengyu's family had informed the leaders of the newspaper.
There's nothing anyone can do if the young lady doesn't want to come.
The exchange meeting ends today, and everyone is free to do as they please for the remaining two days.
Some organized trips to the park, some suggested studying in the library, and everyone had their own ideas.
Lin Jingshu listened for a long time but was not interested. She still followed the previous decision and acted alone with Gu Chengze.
The two of them had a great time in Guangzhou and Lin Jingshu was reluctant to leave.
"Let's do it next time when I'm on break."
Lin Jingshu really wanted to see the scenes of other coastal cities in the 1970s, but given Gu Chengze's special identity, it was obviously unrealistic.
But she is content. Even if she doesn't have the chance now, she can still do it in the future. She wants to travel around the beautiful rivers and mountains of her motherland before she turns 70.
Before leaving, those who got along well with each other left their contact information with each other.
Before returning to the island, Lin Jingshu brought gifts for everyone.
Although the island is not far from Guangzhou City, this is my first time going out, so I brought some small gifts to everyone as a token of my appreciation.
Normally they would bring gifts for themselves when they went out, as friendships last only if they interacted with each other.
The longer I stay on the island, the more they become to me, not just neighbors in the family compound, but true friends.
It is no exaggeration to say that the time I spend with them is longer than the time I spend with Gu Chengze.
When leaving, Gu Chengze left his bicycle at the dock and asked someone to look after it.
After getting ashore, they paid a management fee and rode their bikes back.
Back on the island, Lin Jingshu took a long breath, feeling the fresh air.
It’s more comfortable to be at your own doorstep.
During the few days that Lin Jingshu was away, the news that she went to the university to attend an exchange meeting somehow spread throughout the staff quarters.
All we know is that she graduated from high school and by chance became a teacher in a school.
Unexpectedly, she had real talent and knowledge. Not only did her drawings get published in newspapers, but she was also invited to attend conferences.
It is a very face-saving thing to be in the newspaper. If they can be in the newspaper, they can't wait to show off with drums and gongs.
Lin Jingshu is usually silent and low-key, making herself unnoticed.
Curious people bought a newspaper early to read it.
Some people even wait at the door in advance to get first-hand gossip.
As soon as Lin Jingshu entered the family compound, several sisters-in-law greeted her warmly.
"Jingshu is back."
"How's the university? Is it impressive?"
"Let me ask."
“…”
Lin Jingshu was instantly surrounded by a swarm of people, and Gu Chengze quickly protected his wife behind him.
"Sisters-in-law, we are anxious to go home. We can talk later."
After saying that, he got on his bicycle and ran with his wife, fearing that they would be caught if they were a second late.
Ride all the way home in one go.
Su Hongping was picking bean pods in the yard when she heard Xiaobai's cry. Worried that something had happened, she got up and went out to check.
As soon as the door opened, Xiaobai couldn't wait to run out and circle around Lin Jingshu.
Lin Jingshu squatted down and touched its little head, "Xiaobai, I'm back."
"I was wondering why I heard Xiaobai's voice just now. It turns out it heard you guys coming back."
Seeing that they were back, Su Hongping smiled.
"I'm back."
"Sister-in-law Su."
Lin Jingshu greeted her with a smile on her face.
Lin Jingshu handed her the gift she brought. "This is something new I bought from Guangzhou City. It's for the children to play with."
"How can this be? It's not easy for you to make money. I can't accept it."
Lin Jingshu stuffed the money into her arms without saying anything, "Just take it, sister-in-law. I didn't buy anything expensive. These are a few picture books for the children to play with when they are tired from studying."
Su Hongping: "Then I'll accept it. Nian Nian was talking about buying a picture book a few days ago. If she knew you bought it for her, she would definitely be very happy."
Su Hongping took the things and felt uncomfortable if she didn't take the initiative to help with some of the chores. Seeing that Lin Jingshu's house had not been cleaned for several days, she had to help.
Lin Jingshu couldn't persuade her and had to agree.
When leaving, Gu Chengze gave the key to the house to Lin Shan, and Lin Shan came to feed the chickens on time.
Xiaobai ate whatever Lin Shan ate, and they lived happily for a few days. However, Lin Shan didn't have time to take it out to play.
Xiaobai had been bored at home for three days. He was so excited that he saw the birds outside and swooped over, scaring away a flock of birds and eating a mouthful of bird feathers.
The temperature on the island in winter is stable at around 17 or 18 degrees Celsius, with a large temperature difference between day and night, and it is cool in the morning and evening and warm at noon.
Lin Jingshu was wearing a long-sleeved shirt in the morning, but after packing up, she was too hot to wear it.
After taking a shower and changing into pajamas, I relaxed and slumped on the sofa, not wanting to move.
Gu Chengze came in from outside, just finished taking a shower and drying his hair. "What are you having for lunch? I'll make it."
The vegetables in the yard are growing wildly, and Lin Jingshu wants to eat something light.
"Let's stir-fry tomatoes and shredded potatoes, and make some dumpling soup."
She stretched herself and said, "Let me help you."
Gu Chengze is fully capable of handling things on his own and cooking is no problem for him.
After dinner, Lin Jingshu nodded her head like a bird pecking at rice.
Gu Chengze urged her to go upstairs and sleep, "I still have to go to the military marketing for leave, and I won't be back this afternoon."
