Gu Qinghuan didn't want to reveal her injuries in front of Zhong Luoqing.

She reached out her hand and slapped him on the head: "Come and pack the buns! I'll go boil some water and steam them." Before leaving, Gu Qinghuan gave him a killing look to signal him not to ask any more questions.

Gu Lanting could only swallow the doubts in his heart and took the bags with the little guys.

Xu Huaian has already scrubbed the steamer clean.

Gu Qinghuan puts the wrapped buns into the steamer and waits for them to ferment for the second time before starting to steam them.

The dining table at home is not ready yet, so the family gathers around the low table in the living room, listening to music on the radio, eating melon and chatting, waiting for the dumplings to be steamed. The atmosphere is very good.

Chatting and laughing, almost half an hour passed quickly and the dumplings were ready.

Each person had a bowl of millet porridge and a pot of dumplings of various shapes.

The children happily found their own bags.

Xiaobao found the two bags he had packed and gave one to Xu Huai'an and the other to Gu Qinghuan.

"Mom and Dad, eat the buns I made."

Beibei was not to be outdone and found two bags from her bag and handed them over: "Give mine to Mom and Dad, too."

Lan Ting pretended to be unhappy and said, "You only give it to mom and dad and not to uncle?"

꺶Bao and Beibei 꺗 quickly found a rabbit for their uncle.

Seeing this, You Ran seemed to be thinking about something. She suddenly picked up a bag she had packed and placed it in front of her mother: "Mom, eat it."

Zhong Luoqing was stunned for a second, his eyes full of sadness and emotion. The child could imitate other people's behavior, and the action was so heartwarming.

She took the bag, took a bite and said, "Thank you, Youran."

You Ran is now happy.

The family started to eat steamed buns in a lively atmosphere.

Zhong Luoqing ate one third of the small packet given by her daughter. She couldn't stand the smell of oil and felt nauseous, so Gu Qinghuan let her drink some porridge.

Millet porridge is good for the stomach and is specially made for her.

Fortunately, the millet porridge was delicious. Zhong Luoqi drank a small bowl and went back to the house to rest.

After dinner, Gu Qinghuan used spiritual spring water to make some medicine for her and sent it to Xiao, but she had already fallen asleep.

Gu Qinghuan went upstairs quietly, and after sending the children to bed, she told Gu Lanting what had happened during the day.

Lanting was so excited that he was about to rush out to fight.

"Why are you so excited! Can you please use your brain? You can't even see Xu Jianguo now. He is detained by the police. We should think of a way to suppress Xu Jianguo to death and not let him have a chance to stand up.

What can you do if you beat him up? You can only send yourself to jail as well. "Why is this kid so impulsive when encountering things? It makes people worry.

"Sister, I understand. What should we do now?" Gu Lanting was depressed.

To be honest, Gu Qinghuan didn't know what to do. Xu Jianguo was a member of the Revolutionary Committee, but there were people protecting him, so the matter was left unsolved.

But she still has a trump card in her hand, which she cannot use unless it is absolutely necessary.

She had thought about it. If Xu Jianguo's officials protected him, she would find someone to release the photos she had taken before and make a fuss about it, preferably one that would make the news. She would use the power of public opinion to force the people behind him to abandon their bodyguards and no longer protect him.

However, once this method is used, it means that Sister Luo's private affairs will be exposed to the public. From then on, she may never have peace, and people will point fingers at her and gossip about her wherever she goes.

There are too many restrictions on women in this era. Although they are clearly the victims, they are forced to endure a lot of gossip.

So she didn't want to go that far unless it was absolutely necessary.

Xu Huaian reminded: "I wonder if the old classmate you mentioned last time about your mother-in-law can help find out something."

"Yes, how could I forget Uncle Xu? Although we are in different jurisdictions, he is always better at getting information than us. I will go find him tomorrow." Gu Qinghuan made up his mind.

Speaking of connections, Gu Lanting also thought of someone.

"Sister, have you forgotten Uncle Zhang who helped you change your direction? Doesn't he also work in the Revolutionary Committee? We can still ask him about the situation."

If Lanting hadn't said it, Gu Qinghuan would have almost forgotten about this person. After all, it was the original body who asked for the reincarnation, and the two families didn't have much in common.

At that time, the original body knew that his stepmother had helped him register for a place in the countryside, and it was still to the northwest. He was very angry and anxious. He remembered that his mother had said before she left that if he had any problems, he could go to Uncle Zhang from the Revolutionary Committee for help, so he went to find him.

This uncle of Zhang was also a former student of my grandfather Zhong Weiqian. When the Zhong family got into trouble, he intervened. Although he failed to save the Zhong family, he at least arranged a more suitable place for them to be released.

Later, for Zhong Weiqian's sake, he helped change the hometown's direction from northwest to northeast.

Come to think of it, I have never thanked him properly and never even gave him a piece of fruit. So it seems that Uncle Zhang is a kind and righteous person.

I have to visit her tomorrow with some gifts.

After a brief discussion, the three of them went to sleep.

Gu Qinghuan's room was right next to Zhong Luoxi's room. She slept very lightly and was always paying attention to what was going on in Zhong Luoxi's room.

In the middle of the night, Zhong Luoqing started talking in his sleep and cried loudly, which woke up Gu Qinghuan.

She quickly got up and went over.

Maybe people are most vulnerable in the middle of the night, and every emotion in their hearts will be released. Zhong Luoqing looked like he was about to break down, with tears pouring down his face. He was not as calm as he was during the day.

She half-sat on the bed, hugging her legs tightly.

"Huanhuan, I dreamed that Youran fell from the building. There was blood! There was so much blood that I couldn't clean it up no matter how hard I tried."

Youran was sleeping soundly beside her, completely unaware that her mother had a nightmare because of her.

It seemed that the shocking moment during the day did not leave any deep impression in her mind.

"Sister Luo Qi, dreams are always the opposite of what they actually are. Look, Youran is fine here, sleeping soundly."

Gu Qinghuan was worried that their conversation would wake Youran up, so he carefully carried her to his bed and slept with Beibei.

"Huanhuan, I want to take a shower. My hands are dirty. I'm dirty all over. Xu Jianguo made me dirty." Zhong Luoxi said while feeling nauseous and wanted to vomit but couldn't.

"Sister, I'll go get you some water to wipe it. The wound on your wrist can't come into contact with raw water, okay?" Gu Qinghuan knew that she must have remembered what happened last night and felt sick.

Zhong Luoqing was as helpless as a little beast, curled up in the corner of the bed and kept tearing at his clothes.

"I feel bad, I feel so bad." Not only physically, but also mentally, it's like there's a hole in my body that can't be plugged.

Gu Qinghuan went downstairs and quickly fetched a basin of hot water. Fortunately, the charcoal stove they were using had a habit of having warm water on the stove every night, so they could still have hot water.

Gu Qinghuan took a new snow-white wool and wiped her hair over and over again.
