"Both the Sheng Group and Doctor Gu are truly capable individuals. From now on, I won’t doubt their words anymore."
"If only the Sheng Group and Doctor Gu could stay here at Huan Sha Island forever."
When Gu Jia Ning finally left the house after her postpartum period, she realized that she seed to have gained more "friends."
Everywhere she went, it was as if everyone knew her, warmly greeting her.
To be honest, with everyone’s sudden enthusiasm, Gu Jia Ning found it a bit overwhelming.
After her postpartum period, Gu Jia Ning returned to work at the hospital.
However, because Tuantuan was still very young,
she requested reduced working hours from the hospital.
She also asked to bring Tuantuan with her.
The hospital naturally agreed.
Everyone knew that during Gu Jia Ning’s leave, countless patients were waiting for Doctor Gu, with surgeries piling up, waiting for Doctor Gu to perform them.
It’s not that others couldn’t do it, but the patients truly trusted Doctor Gu.
So, Gu Jia Ning embarked on a journey of balancing work while taking care of Tuantuan.
If she needed to perform surgery, other available doctors and nurses would help look after Tuantuan.
The doctors and nurses at this county hospital were all very kind.
Plus, Tuantuan was very well-behaved and adorable.
So, life was quite well-coordinated.
anwhile, Sheng Zexi resud his training just a few days after a month’s leave, and soon after, he was off on a mission with no set return date.
Ti flew by, and the year turned into 1979.
As they approached the 1980s, everything was thriving.
Gu Jia Ning calculated the ti. When they first ca to Huan Sha Island, Tuantuan was only three months in her belly.
Now, Tuantuan was two months old.
In another three months, it would be a full year since they ca to Huan Sha Island.
By then, Brother Xi would transfer to Beijing, and she would go with the kids following the military post.
After the Lin Family was arrested, the Huan Sha Island Military District seed to have entered a period of calm.
In the blink of an eye, the three months were nearly up.
By this ti, Tuantuan, once just a little bundle, had grown to five months old.
Lately, when lying on the bed, this little guy always tried to sit up.
Whenever soone was nearby, he would babble, asking for help to sit up.
Once seated, he could happily play with his toys on his own.
As for Sheng Zexi, he had already confird his transfer to the Beijing Military District, and it was assured that upon arrival, due to his accumulated accomplishnts, he would imdiately be a brigade-level officer.
Sheng Zexi, still in his early thirties, was quite a promising young officer.
It’s worth noting that when Lin Chushi beca a brigade-level officer, he was nearly fifty years old.
Gu Jia Ning, on the other hand, was transferred to Beijing First Hospital to serve as a departnt head.
Moreover, Gu Jia Ning was invited by Beijing University to beco an honorary professor in the dical school.
She had already held the position of honorary professor at Beijing University.
Now they hoped that, besides her duties as a doctor, she could spare so ti to teach at the Beijing University dical College once she was in Beijing.
Gu Jia Ning said, "I’m supposed to be a doctor and a teacher; that’s too busy!"
She was still a mom who needed to take care of her children!
As a result, Gu Jia Ning agreed to be both a doctor and a teacher, but the institutions needed to coordinate her schedule properly.
So before she even went, there were already discussions between Beijing First Hospital and Beijing University over how to allocate Gu Jia Ning’s ti.
Both sides wanted to secure as much of Gu Jia Ning’s ti as possible.
Today was the day Sheng Zexi officially processed his departure from the Huan Sha Island Military District.
When Sheng Zexi returned to the family quarters, Gu Jia Ning was busy packing with Xingxing, Yueyue, and Amber.
"Xingxing, Yueyue, make sure you pack your own things properly."
"Okay～"
"Amber, bring along all your belongings, take whatever you’re used to."
Amber responded as well.
Seated in the baby carriage, Tuantuan watched his busy mom, brother, and sister, thinking they were playing a ga, clapping happily and babbling "ah ah ah."
Upon returning, Sheng Zexi joined in the packing.
"We have more than a month before reporting to the Beijing Military District. I’ll first accompany you back to Huaihua Village."
"Then we’ll visit Hai City to see my elder brother and sister-in-law."
"After that, we’ll head back to Beijing."
"How does that sound?"
Gu Jia Ning’s eyes lit up, "Do we have that long a break? That’s perfect, let’s do it the way you suggested."
Talking about family, Gu Jia Ning’s eyes were filled with longing, "My parents, brother, and sister-in-law haven’t seen Tuantuan yet."
"They haven’t seen for a long ti either; I’m sure they miss too."
Especially considering the recent interruption due to a typhoon, when the communication company was down and we couldn’t contact them.
At that ti, my parents’ anxiety and worry were fully imaginable.
Perhaps only when a girl gets married, does she understand such longing for her parents.
Perhaps only when becoming a parent can one truly understand the care and worries parents have for their children.
Ti will help her grow gradually into a mature and stable daughter.
But ti will also make parents grow older.
Once married, distances can be great.
There aren’t many opportunities to reunite.
Every ti we et, it’s one less eting in the future.
Understanding this made Gu Jia Ning cherish every mont of family reunion.
Therefore, hearing the plan of returning to the hotown made Gu Jia Ning very happy.
"Mom and Dad, can we go back and see Grandpa, Grandma, and Uncle, and Aunt?"
"I miss Brother Shitou and Brother Zhuangzhuang."
Upon hearing they could return to Huaihua Village, Xingxing and Yueyue joyfully crowded around to ask.
"Of course, Daddy will take Mommy and you with us!"
"Yay, yay!" Xingxing and Yueyue clapped in delight.
Tuantuan, sitting in the baby carriage, although unsure why his mom, brother, and sister were so excited, he clapped in happiness seeing them so cheerful.
At that mont, Gu Jia Ning noted Amber’s slight silence and told Sheng Zexi, "We should visit the army dog training base before we leave!"
Hearing this, Amber suddenly paused, looking at Gu Jia Ning, eyes slightly moist.
’Sister～’
Gu Jia Ning walked over, gently stroking Amber’s fur, and said, "I know, Amber must miss Zai Zai and the others greatly."
"Xingxing, Yueyue, and I miss them too."
Hearing this, Xingxing and Yueyue’s longing surged.
"I miss Hong Ying."
"I miss Lei Ting too."
Truth be told, they missed them all, Flash and Lijian included.
It’s just that they had spent more ti with Hong Ying and Lei Ting, growing closer to them.
