Monts later, a myriad of tiny, warm feelings surged in her glistening eyes.

He was actually so considerate…

So, he had bought so many chestnuts just to warm her hands.

The chestnut seller was stunned by Gu Chen’s gesture, even forgetting to take the money.

Good fellow!

No wonder this guy could marry such a beautiful wife.

This is true spoiling!

He really knows how to do it!

What woman wouldn’t love a man like this?

Eight yuan to keep his wife warm all day, he’s a master of romance!

What a great deal!

He smiled at Ji Pianran.

“Your husband is really good to you, not to speak of his good looks, but he’s also so considerate. It’s hard to find such a good husband these days.”

Before Ji Pianran could speak, Gu Chen, with a beaming smile, handed the eight yuan to the seller.

“Wishing you prosperity, Happy New Year!”

The seller responded warmly as well, “Happy New Year, the very best of luck!”

Ji Pianran, head lowered, felt the warmth from the chestnuts in her pocket.

It extended from the tips of her fingers all the way to the depths of her heart.

After paying, Gu Chen turned back and smiled at her.

“That should do it, let’s go, it’s ti to head ho.”

Undeniably, Gu Chen was very handso, with a sharply defined face and a pair of large, deep-set, peach blossom eyes.

In that mont when he smiled at her, she suddenly felt as if he was surrounded by light.

Ji Pianran’s heart skipped a beat, caught off guard.

She blinked rapidly, squeezing the hot roasted chestnuts in her pocket hard.

Undeniably, this warm feeling was really nice.

They had been running around all day.

Tangtang wasn’t as lively as she had been in the morning. After all, she was just a child and soon beca listless.

Fearing the little girl might catch a cold, he opened his cotton jacket’s zipper and wrapped Tangtang inside his own coat.

The family of three started walking towards ho.

On the way ho, they had to pass through a coal washing plant’s residential area.

The coal washing plant was staffed by workers, and mostly both spouses worked there, generally aning better living conditions.

So, many hos had televisions.

Gu Chen, holding Tangtang, walked with his head down.

He had no idea that the drowsy little girl was watching an animated series through soone else’s window pane.

She hadn’t watched for more than a few seconds, but the image was deeply etched in her mory.

It made her sleepiness vanish in an instant.

“Daddy, what’s that!!!!!”

Tangtang looked up, pointing at the window of the house, prompting both adults to quickly look where her little hand was pointing.

Gu Chen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

“Television?”

He never imagined a child just over two years old would be interested in television.

Perhaps it was because it was her first ti seeing one.

Tangtang’s surprise turned into excitent.

She struggled to get out of Gu Chen’s arms.

“Daddy, I want to go see, the kitty inside is a police officer!”

The cartoon playing was the Black Cat Sheriff.

Gu Chen was frightened by her struggle, worried she might fall, and quickly bent down to put her on the ground.

Then, the little girl tiptoed towards the window of the other family’s ho.

Gu Chen and Ji Pianran hurriedly followed behind.

This was a family of coal washing plant workers, with a three-year-old child. At this dinner ti, the family of three was eating while watching Black Cat Sheriff.

Tangtang watched Black Cat Sheriff on the television, her eyes wide with amazent.

“Daddy, that kitty is so aweso!”

Looking into the little girl’s eyes filled with longing, Gu Chen’s heart ached for no reason.

Similarly afflicted was Ji Pianran, but what could be done about such heartache? It was obvious that they had only just started to live a better life, and it wasn’t the ti to buy a television yet.

She bent down and affectionately stroked the little girl’s head.

“Tangtang dear, shall we go ho? It’s not polite to stand under soone else’s window like this.”

The words left unspoken were that such behavior was not only impolite but would also make their family of three look pitiful.

Ji Pianran was obstinate by nature, she had never needed anyone’s pity nor did she ever want it.

She definitely didn’t want anyone to pity her child.

Moreover, such pity could even be tinged with mockery.

Hearing this, Tangtang’s dark eyes brimd with questions.

Clearly, she didn’t understand why it was impolite.

Looking at Ji Pianran, her innocent little face was full of childlike naivety.

In a tender, milky voice, she said, “Mommy, how about we knock on the door and go in?”

She really wanted to watch a little longer, just a little while, even a minute would do.

Ji Pianran, seeing the pleading look on her daughter’s face, felt like her heart was shattering.

Yet, she still shook her head and softly spoke, “We can’t, but we can go ho and play with the wooden figures.”

As she spoke, Gu Chen clearly saw the helplessness on her face.

Before he could say anything, Tangtang pouted with a face full of grievance and then burst into tears.

Big, round tears rolled down her cheeks.

She truly wanted to watch for a while, even just for a little bit.

She had never before seen a cat that could walk.

She really liked it.

Ji Pianran picked up her child and repeatedly comforted her with a gentle and apologetic tone.

“Tangtang dear, it’s not ti for us to buy a TV yet, but Mommy promises you, one day, you’ll be able to sit at ho and watch cartoons, okay?”

Seeing his daughter’s dejection and his wife’s helplessness,

Gu Chen’s heart ached once more.

One couldn’t deny that people’s fates truly differed.

So children are born without worries of food and clothing, able to sit in a warm house, enjoying tasty treats and watching cartoons.

Yet, for other children, having a full al could be a struggle, let alone watching cartoons.

In his past life, his Tangtang had unluckily beco one of the latter due to his own misdeeds.

In this life, he would do everything in his power to make his daughter one of the forr.

He was determined to change her destiny!

To give her a beautiful childhood and a complete, happy family!

Gu Chen, looking serious, gazed at Ji Pianran’s face.

“You take the child ho first, I need to go into town!”

Then, without looking back, he walked in the opposite direction.

Watching his retreating figure, Ji Pianran had a premonition that Gu Chen was likely going to buy a television!

She called out anxiously, “Hey, don’t be rash…”

Truthfully, it wasn’t that she didn’t sympathize with her child; Tangtang was flesh of her flesh.

As a mother, she could only love her child more than herself.

However, she didn’t feel that their circumstances were good enough to spend thousands of yuan on a child’s whim.

Although their situation had improved, it had only been a few days.

The road ahead was long, and everything was unknown.

Before her words could finish, Gu Chen’s figure had already disappeared around the corner.

It was nearly one o’clock now, and he was in a hurry!

He was going into town to buy the television!

Today was New Year’s Eve, he wanted Tangtang to watch cartoons, wanted Ji Pianran to watch the Spring Festival Gala!

…

Having entered the city,

Fortunately, the city’s malls would all be closed by six o’clock in the afternoon on New Year’s Eve.

Without a word, Gu Chen headed straight for the electronics store.

In those tis, televisions were still sold alongside other appliances, and they were all back-projection TVs.

They looked small and cumberso, totally incomparable to the televisions of later eras.
