However, she only hoped that Bai Ruoxin and his wife would never come back, and just pretend that they didn't have this son, so that they wouldn't use their son as an excuse to come to the provincial capital and cause trouble in the future.
Fortunately, Pei Guohong is not a stingy person and didn't say anything about it.
After dinner, Bai Ruozhen talked to Li Qiulan about the Li family again. Li Qiulan finally showed some joy on her face. "Your grandparents still want us to go to the capital. But we have lived here for so many years, and we really can't adapt to going to the capital."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ruozhen glanced at Bai Jiansheng and felt that Bai Jiansheng looked a little embarrassed and uncomfortable. Bai Ruozhen did not expose it. It was probably not that Li Qiulan did not want to go, but that his father was uncomfortable with the fact that the two elders of the Li family looked down on him and was unwilling to go.
The matter was over afterwards, but Li Qiulan decided to wait until Pei Guohong was out of confinement and then take Ruoyun and Lishan to Beijing to visit the Li family.
Bai Ruozhen was also a little tempted. She had been traveling around Yancheng and the provincial capital for several years since she came here, and she had never seen the legendary capital city.
Bai Ruozhen mentioned this matter before going to bed, and Gu Changqing said, "This is not easy to handle. When we take the college entrance examination, we should apply to a university in Beijing."
Bai Ruozhen was planning to go to sleep, but suddenly she shuddered. Yes, she still had to take the college entrance examination.
In an instant, she returned to her study state, which had been left to a corner since the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. She probably wouldn't have a good life when they returned to Yancheng.
Gu Changqing said leisurely, "Wife, enjoy your happy life for a few more days while you are at your parents' home. When we return, we will work hard together."
Bai Ruozhen hid under the quilt and tried to struggle again, "I, I still have to go to work."
"I know." Gu Changqing lay down and took her into his arms. "But I also know that your work is actually quite easy, so I have adjusted your study schedule. When the time comes, you will definitely have no problem studying according to the study plan I specified."
There are problems, big problems.
Bai Ruozhen thought so secretly, but she couldn't muster the courage to refute, because she knew that as soon as she opened her mouth, the man next to her would have a lot of reasons to convince her. If she continued to argue, he would pretend to be miserable and talk about the separation of husband and wife, father and son.
Ah, she felt a headache just thinking about it, so she decided to just study.
But it's a bit strange that she was able to pass the exam given her poor learning ability.
Fortunately, Bai Ruoxin and his wife were no longer around, so Bai Ruozhen finally had a few days of peace in the provincial capital. On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Bai Ruozhen and Gu Changqing prepared to return to Yancheng.
Before leaving, Gu Changqing took Bai Ruoyun and her brother to many places to buy textbooks and learning materials. He even made a lot of test questions based on junior high school knowledge. In order to encourage the two children to study hard, he was very generous and bought pens for the two children again.
For this, Gu Changqing was collectively criticized by Li Qiulan and Bai Jiansheng.
He really doesn't know how to live.
Gu Changqing accepted the criticism cheerfully and decided to buy it anyway.
So Li Qiulan picked up Bai Ruozhen and started nagging him again.
Bai Ruozhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't worry about it, Mom. If he doesn't have money, he can't buy it even if he wants to."
Li Qiulan knew about Gu Changqing's business, but she also understood that it was not easy for her son-in-law to earn money. A pen cost twenty yuan, which was almost equivalent to a worker's monthly salary. No matter how rich he was, he couldn't spend it like that.
Bai Ruozhen said, "A pen costs ten yuan, twenty yuan is a scam to cheat big sister."
Li Qiulan stood up angrily and said, "If you like flowers, spend them."
Having said that, when Bai Ruozhen and her family of four got on the train for lunch, they discovered that Li Qiulan had actually stuffed fifty yuan into her pocket. As for when it was put there, she had no recollection.
Gu Changqing said, "Your mother-in-law loves you, so you have to study hard and get into university to repay them."
Bai Ruozhen: “…” I really want to hit him.
It was already midnight when they arrived in Yancheng. Doubao and Jiaozi had already gone to bed. Gu Changqing was carrying bags in one hand, one in front and one behind. Bai Ruozhen wanted to share the burden but was sternly refused.
When I got outside, I didn't want to see Gu Changsong squatting in the waiting room. I got closer and found that he was still asleep.
Gu Changqing said mischievously, "How about we leave?"
Bai Ruozhen rolled his eyes at him, then woke Gu Changsong up, "Third brother, what are you doing here?"
Gu Changsong saw them coming, stood up and said, "I'm here to pick you up." Then he took the luggage from Gu Changqing's hand.
"Why are you so kind?" Gu Changqing asked.
Gu Changsong said embarrassedly, "Hey, I'm going to be a father again. I'm so happy. I couldn't sleep at night, and your third sister-in-law couldn't sleep because I tossed and turned, so she drove me out to pick you up."
Bai Ruozhen: “…” You’re touching the wrong person.
It was almost twelve o'clock when we got home. Gu Changsong had already heated up the kang and lit the stove. "Second Aunt will probably be here the day after tomorrow, and Second Uncle will probably come with her."
Bai Ruozhen understood. Uncle Gu would not be back to work until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, so it was normal for him to come.
Sleeping on the warm kang, Bai Ruozhen sighed comfortably, "It's still warm at home."
When I first slept on a kang, I felt it was very uncomfortable, but after a long time, I found it very comfortable.
Gu Changqing put his son on the end of the kang, turned over and pressed on him, "Come on, your wife is home, let's do some exercise."
