Gu Jia Ning: “I just think Xi Ge, you are truly a good husband, and you will definitely be a good father in the future.”
She spoke the truth. Since confirming her pregnancy, after asking Doctor Hao about what pregnant women should pay attention to and how to take care of pregnant women, Sheng Ze Xi has been diligently practicing it.
However, Gu Jia Ning hasn't told the Gu Family about her pregnancy yet, nor has she told Grandfather Sang and Grandmother Sang. She's waiting until after three months, when things are stable, to tell them the good news.
At this moment, Sheng Ze Xi heard his wife's praise, his eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but fly up, the corners of his mouth also hooked up a big arc. "Of course, I, Sheng Ze Xi, dare to guarantee that I am absolutely the best husband in the world."
As for being a father, he hasn't been one before, and he doesn't know how to be one.
He doesn't have a concept in his mind yet, but he thinks that if it's his and Ning Ning's child, he will strive to be a good father.
Gu Jia Ning roughly understood the unspoken meaning in Sheng Ze Xi's words, she gently glared at him, and didn't say anything more.
And Qin Tian, sitting in the back seat, watching the whole thing: Sister Gu and Brother-in-law have such a good relationship.
The jeep slowly drove out of the Military Region. Kaoshan Village wasn't far away, and under Qin Tian's guidance, it took less than ten minutes to arrive.
Getting out of the car, Gu Jia Ning stood in front of the Qin Family house.
Unexpectedly, she had previously thought that the Qin Family was very poor, perhaps living in a thatched hut or a rammed earth house, but unexpectedly, it was a grey brick house, although not very large, it wasn't small either.
Seeing Gu Jia Ning looking at the house, Qin Tian also looked at the house, as if looking through it to see something, he softly said: "Grandma said, this house was built with money from my father and mother…"
Qin Tian forgot how long it had been since he last said the four words "father and mother". Now that he said it, even he himself felt a little strange.
They left home 8 years ago.
They were suddenly picked up by a car and left. At that time, Qin Tian and Qin Qing were only 2 years old.
Older sister Qin Qing's memory isn't as good as Qin Tian's; she doesn't even remember what her father and mother looked like.
Qin Tian, however, had an early memory, and he has remembered those memories from when he was 2 years old all these years.
He remembered that day, his mother was telling him and his sister how to make very powerful weapons, and his father was holding a small knife, using a piece of wood to carve a small pistol for him and his sister.
It was a very ordinary and warm day.
The arrival of that car broke this warmth and made that day unusual.
That car hurriedly took his father and mother away, they didn't even have time to pack their clothes.
His father and mother only had time to say goodbye to Grandma, and only had time to hug him and his sister.
At that time, he remembered his mother holding him, telling him to live well with Grandma and wait for them to come back.
Perhaps it was due to a child's intuition, the genius Xiao Qin Tian cried, begging his father and mother not to leave.
He had an intuition, a very bad intuition, telling him that if his father and mother left, they might never see each other again in this life.
So, he wanted his father and mother to stay.
But in the end, no matter how much Xiao Qin Tian cried, his father and mother still left.
Through blurry tears, Xiao Qin Tian and his sister chased after the car, but they eventually fell down, only able to watch the car carrying their father and mother quickly disappear from sight.
Later…
During the time his father and mother were gone, he and his sister would cry from time to time whenever they remembered them.
Xiao Qin Tian also cried and asked Grandma where his father and mother were.
At that time, Grandma embraced him and his sister, saying: "Your father and mother are doing very, very important things for the nation and the people."
"Tian, Qing, don't blame your father and mother, they are great."
The two-year-old Xiao Qin Tian didn't understand the two words "great," he only knew that he and his sister missed their father and mother, but they were not there.
But children seem to forget things relatively quickly.
Once, when Xiao Qin Tian remembered his father and mother, he suddenly found that his sister hadn't cried or mentioned his father and mother for some time.
Later on, even though Xiao Qin Tian's memory was good, he was only two years old at that time, and as he grew older, the scene of that day, including the figures and faces of his father and mother, seemed to gradually become blurred.
Father and Mother, if you don't come back, my sister and I may not remember you.
In the distant southeastern Weapons Research Institute, a young woman assembling weapons suddenly felt a pain in her chest, and tears fell.
"What's wrong?" Her husband beside her noticed the situation and anxiously asked.
The woman gently shook her head, "Nothing, I just suddenly remembered the two children."
The man hugged his wife, "Soon, we will be able to go back soon. Although we can't send letters back, we do send our salaries back every month. Mother and the children should be doing alright."
"Mmm, I hope so."
The sadness was only a moment; time was pressing, and the couple quickly recovered their composure and continued their work.
On the Kaoshan Village side, Gu Jia Ning had already entered the Qin Family and come to Grandma Qin's kang.
Grandma Qin was awake, and when she saw Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Ze Xi, a perfect couple, her eyes were full of kindness.
She coughed and said, "You are the Sister Gu that Tian often talks about, the Sister Gu who is very kind to them, Comrade Gu. Thank you for coming over. It's such a cold day, Tian shouldn't have bothered you."
"They say that life and death are predetermined, this old woman has lived long enough, I just can't bear to leave the two children, cough cough…"
"Grandma…" Qin Tian and Qin Qing both turned red-eyed.
"Grandma, since you can't bear to leave the two children, you must take good care of your health. You should know that in the situation of the Qin family, if you're not here, those two siblings, they don't know how they'll be bullied."
Gu Jia Ning comforted her while having the system bind Grandma Qin as a patient, and at the same time scanning Grandma Qin's physical condition with her eyes.
She quickly came to a conclusion: it was indeed tuberculosis.
She took Grandma Qin's pulse and finally said, "...it's tuberculosis."
After hearing the word "tuberculosis" from Gu Jia Ning, Grandma Qin's already pale and thin face flashed a gray pallor again.
She had seen this disease, tuberculosis, in her lifetime.
Very few people had ever been cured.
Grandma Qin seemed to foresee her own death.
She had lived this long, and it didn't matter if she died, but what about the two children?
She knew that in this village, many people were eyeing the Qin family's brick house.
Her son and daughter-in-law had been gone for eight years, not even a letter, let alone sending money back. Otherwise, this family, with the old and the young, wouldn't be so difficult.
She wondered if she could wait for them to return before she closed her eyes.
Thinking about it, turbid tears flowed from Grandma Qin's eyes.
"Grandma…" Seeing Grandma cry, Qin Tian and his sister were immediately stunned.
"Hey, Grandma, don't cry, although it's tuberculosis, I didn't say it can't be cured."
"
