Unexpectedly, the father couldn't grasp the little guy's mind and was abandoned all of a sudden.
The little tiger jumped out of his arms and ran out.
"I'm looking for my uncle! I want him to scrub my body too!"
Gu Qi had long been accustomed to his son's ever-changing "superpowers". He did not try to stop him, and even if he wanted to, he could not. He just picked up the book and read.
The mother was different. When she saw her son running out of the room, she hurriedly asked about the leisurely and calm father.
"Is the gate closed? It's dark outside, we can't let little Tiger escape."
"It's closed." Gu Qi replied: "Even if he accidentally runs out of the door, Dahei will follow him, so it's okay even if he runs around."
Dahei sleeps in the front yard and will bark as soon as someone comes in or out.
Little Tiger was his beloved, and he had grown up with him, and they had a deep affection for each other. Whenever Little Tiger left the room, Dahei would follow him around.
Chen Xingling asked again: "Is the kitchen clean?"
"Yeah." Gu Qi replied, "After dinner, Ah Yi and Ah Xuan cleaned up together. Don't worry, just take good care of your hands. If you don't do it, someone else will have to do it."
He told his two sisters that their family of three would move to Chongqing after the New Year, and they would have to help with the kitchen chores at home, so they should learn a little now so that they would be able to cope with it later.
Chen Xingling felt sweet in his heart and whispered: "The chilblains on my hands are almost gone. I think they will be healed tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
These days she has been applying frostbite ointment and moisturizing facial cream, and will sneak into the space to apply a facial mask when she has the chance.
In addition, she drinks donkey-hide gelatin and red dates soup every day, and plans to stick to it.
She found that this body had been overworked for many years, lacked food and clothing, and had no nourishment, which resulted in irregular menstruation for more than a year.
Menstruation comes less frequently, only once every two or three months, and the amount of each time is very small. Although she has not consulted a gynecologist, Chen Xingling knows that most of the causes are malnutrition, not other gynecological diseases.
She usually pays great attention to personal hygiene, taking a bath and changing clothes frequently, and insists on exposing her menstrual belt and menstrual paper to the sun or baking them on the stove to ensure that there are not too many bacteria.
Now that there are mountains of sanitary napkins, tampons, sanitary pads, etc. in the space, she has no worries in this regard.
Therefore, the top priority is to take care of your body and keep it healthy. Then your menstrual period should return to normal soon.
Gu Qi shook his head gently and said gently, "Don't worry, you should take care of your body. You have obviously been less dizzy in the past two days. This is a sign of recovery."
Chen Xingling has been secretly eating sweets every day recently, and her hypoglycemia has indeed increased more often, but she cannot talk about it in detail.
"If the food is good these days, I can eat enough and have a good meal."
In the past, the losses were too great, and after a little nutrition, it was like a long drought finally coming to an end, and the effect was great all of a sudden. Others didn't know, but she, a woman, knew it very well.
Gu Qi lowered his voice and said, "Once we get to Yucheng, I will ask someone to buy you some supplements so that you can replenish your body."
"No, no." Chen Xingling waved his hand: "I just need to have three meals a day and take care of myself for a while, and I will definitely recover my previous healthy appearance. I'm still young now, it's just a loss, it's easier to take care of myself."
After hearing this, Gu Qi couldn't help but think of his sarcastic and brainless old relative, and sighed helplessly.
Suddenly, he also remembered the little incident that happened during dinner just now.
"Xing'er, why... why are you suddenly against my mom and little sister selling pork on the black market? Do you know something?"
Whether it was meat or sugar, most things required tickets and money. Sometimes, even if you had money on hand, you couldn't buy anything without tickets. Because of this, some people liked to buy and sell on the black market.
Almost everyone in the city knew about the black market. Although the location of the black market changed from time to time, everyone knew it. If they wanted to buy or sell something, they only needed to ask quietly to find out.
He worked in a shipyard, and the Finance Department would occasionally issue various food coupons, meat coupons, and sugar coupons, so his family didn't have to go to the black market often.
My younger brother said earlier that although the family did not have to go to the black market to buy rice or meat, my younger sister was always greedy. As long as she had a little money, she would run out to buy some snacks, and most of the places she went to were the black market.
She was used to running, so she naturally thought there was no danger and had no idea that this was actually against the rules.
My wife probably never cared about my younger sister before, so when she spoke out to stop her this time, my younger sister was so angry.
Chen Xingling paused for a moment and told the reason he had already made up.
"Most people have experienced it, but it doesn't mean it's legal. The day before yesterday, when Xiao Huzi and I were telegraphing my mother's home, we found that there was a man in formal clothes on the phone, talking about the black market in the city."
Gu Qi raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Oh? What did you say?"
Chen Xingling lowered his voice: "I can't hear the details clearly, but I heard someone say, 'We need to clean it up before the New Year. We can't just leave it alone. And we need to do a big cleanup at the end of the year when there are so many people.' I don't know the person, and I don't know if it's true. But it's better to be safe than sorry, right?"
Gu Qi frowned, then nodded approvingly.
"Yes, you were right to stop him. If we get caught, we won't be able to celebrate the New Year, so it's better to be careful."
Chen Xingling explained in a low voice: "Our family is not a regular black market business. If we get caught just for selling a piece of pork at a high price, it would be too unfair, right? But making a mistake is making a mistake. When people interrogate us, we won't be able to explain it clearly even if we have a hundred mouths. Forget it, anyway, let's not touch anything illegal, so we don't have to worry about it."
"Yeah." Gu Qi praised: "That makes sense."
Chen Xingling blinked at him and murmured, "So, I can only stop you from jumping, just in case!"
Gu Qi smiled slightly, his eyebrows and eyes were as gentle as jade.
“No need to risk your life for a little illicit income—it’s not worth it.”
He is an extremely handsome man, with perfect features. When he usually has a cold face, he looks extraordinary and gives people a sense of distance, like a banished immortal.
However, when he smiled, his smile was as gentle as water, making people feel like they were in a spring breeze, and the distance between them was shortened in an instant.
Chen Xingling was stunned for half a second, unable to extricate herself from her husband's godly looks.
"Oh, and if you follow the black market and get caught by accident, I will be very worried and distressed."
Gu Qijun blushed slightly and nodded shyly.
"I...will listen to you and won't go wrong."
At this time, Xiaohuzi's voice came from the backyard, and he seemed a little anxious.
Chen Xingling smiled bitterly to himself and secretly cursed "stinky boy". He could only resign himself to his fate, put down the basket, and quickly jumped off the bed.
"If you don't punish him for three days, he will tear the roof off the house! You continue reading, and I will bring the boy who deserves to be punished here!"
Gu Qi looked at her cute back as she hurriedly left, and smiled softly unconsciously.
I thought that after not seeing each other for so many years, my wife would become much more distant from me, and I was even worried that my son would be afraid of and feel unfamiliar with me.
Now it seems that husband and wife are husband and wife after all. Even if they have not met for many years, they quickly became familiar with each other after just a few days of getting along, and they are even more intimate than before.
My son has gone from being resistant and unfamiliar with me in the beginning to pestering me and acting like a spoiled child now.
This warm and happy feeling should be the warmth of home.
Gu Qi felt a little sweet in his heart and couldn't help looking forward to the future life of his family of three in Yucheng.
