Father Gu paused with a look of relief and continued, "Going to the Northwest is your own choice. I also hope you won't act on impulse. Your mother has been very angry about this matter recently and is mad at you, so she doesn't want to come down to see you off. You have always been a person with your own ideas, but you really should discuss this matter with your family first."
"I'm sorry, Dad. I was wrong about this."
Father Gu waved his hand and said, "I've been to the northwest before. The environment is a bit harsh, but it's a good thing for young people to be motivated and have fighting spirit. I will go and counsel your mother. I also hope that you can gain some experience and gain something from this trip."
Here, Song's mother kept preparing things for Song Zhi. "Mom, why don't you come with me?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can a mother-in-law follow her son-in-law to join the army? If you tell others about it, they will laugh at you." Song Mei felt very hurt by her daughter's words, but she still scolded her.
"But……"
"Don't worry about it. You and Xiaojin should hurry up and have a baby, and I will come to take care of you right away." Song's mother joked.
"Mom" Song Zhi said loudly.
"Okay, okay, come and watch me pack things. These are the new instant noodles. I heard that they can be eaten directly by soaking in hot water. You will be in the car for several days, and you can't just eat dry food, so I bought a few bags." Mother Song said as she put the instant noodles into the luggage bag.
Then he took out two glass jars and a bag of white steamed buns from the cabinet. There were about five or six of them. "This is the meat sauce I made a few days ago. It won't keep for long, so eat it as soon as you open it. There are also these two packets of toffee, a packet of peach cakes, a packet of roasted chestnuts, and a packet of melon seeds. I'll heat up the chestnuts when you get up early so you can have something to eat in the car so you don't get bored."
Listening to the nagging voice in her ears, Song Zhi did not feel impatient at all. On the contrary, she listened carefully and responded to every word Song's mother said with great patience.
Only at this moment did she feel that she also had a family, and that she was not just a soul without a sense of belonging.
After packing, Song's mother took her back to the room, held her hand, and said a lot of things. The most important point was that she decided to leave the Gu family after Song Zhi left.
Having stayed in the Gu family for more than 20 years, to be honest, she was reluctant to leave. However, her daughter had already married into the Gu family, and it would not be good for her to stay any longer. Mother Song was now in her forties, and to be honest, she had also made some plans for her future.
She had saved some money over the years at the Gu family, and she planned to look around to see if there was a suitable house. She thought she could afford to buy a smaller house, so that she and her daughter could have their own home in Kyoto.
The city has been developing slowly over the years, and she plans to find a job after finding a place to live.
During the years she worked as a nanny, her cooking skills became more and more refined. She also humbly asked for advice. She was good at making pastries, soups, and nourishing medicinal foods. She was confident in her cooking skills. After listening to her plan, Song Zhi expressed his support and encouragement. Of course, he also hoped that Song's mother could have her own career instead of being trapped in a small world.
…
After getting on the train and looking at the bustling crowd inside, Song Zhi felt as if he was looking at a scroll painting of the times, a sense of unreality.
Gu Huaijin walked in front of her, carrying two large packages easily without any effort.
Song Zhi was in a bit of trouble. Although she was carrying small things, she had no strength, so it was a bit difficult for her to walk.
After finally finding my berth, I was stunned by the scene in front of me.
"This... is our seat, right?" Song Zhi took out the ticket from his bag and checked it again unsurely.
