The mother of the era is reborn to support her cannon fodder children!

Chapter 68 "He is my lover"

Gu Chenghuai frowned and pressed his slender, clean fingers against Lin Zhao's red lips.

"Zhao Zhao!" His voice was slightly harsh, and a hint of pain flashed in his dark eyes. "You are digging into my heart."

He didn't dare to think too deeply about every word Zhao Zhao said, as thinking about it would make him feel extremely painful.

It was as if a hand was pointed at his chest, and the coldness penetrated through it, dragging his heart back and forth.

Repeatedly.

Even more.

She said...it seemed like it happened at some point.

It made him heartbroken.

Just thinking about it drained all my strength.

Those deep black eyes were fixed on his wife, as if he wanted to hold her in his heart.

He was really, really scared.

Lin Zhao felt that Gu Chenghuai's tone was a bit harsh. She raised her eyes to look at him, her gaze clear and calm. "Gu Chenghuai! Are you being mean to me?"

She would only call him by his full name when she was angry. The common names she called him were varied, such as Comrade Gu, Captain Gu, the father of the son, the father of the child, Gu San... all depending on what she wanted.

Gu Chenghuai placed his hands on his wife's shoulders, looking down at her with intense, focused eyes. His voice was calm, yet with a hint of melancholy, "I'm not mean to you, I just..."

He paused, his voice slightly hoarse, "I can't stand what you said, Zhao Zhao."

It was so rare for them to see each other, and Lin Zhao was reluctant to waste time on quarrels. As long as he was willing to coax her... she would calm down instantly.

Her eyes curved slightly, and she hooked Gu Chenghuai's hand, with her right hand held in his palm.

"Okay, I won't say anything more!" She was just venting her emotions without intending to make the father feel bad.

Gu Chenghuai's tense expression relaxed instantly, his eyes fixed on his wife, gentle and tender, "Does your head still hurt?"

"If it hurts, I'll take you to the hospital."

Lin Zhao's expression softened as she stared at the man, not wanting to look away for a long time. "It doesn't hurt anymore!"

This is her man. She hasn't seen him for a long time, so naturally she misses him.

Even if there is a little sense of unfamiliarity, it will be overwhelmed by the strong emotion of wanting to cherish every second with him...

Noticing that Gu Chenghuai's hands were empty, without even a cloth bag, she asked curiously, "You didn't bring any luggage with you?"

"I brought it." Gu Chenghuai was always gentle and patient in front of his wife, speaking at a steady pace, "It's with Yang Junzhi."

He looked at Zhao Zhao's forehead again. There was not even a red mark left on it, so he should be fine.

"Did you borrow the money to buy your job, bicycle, and watch?" Lin Zhao frowned slightly, fearing that Gu Chenghuai owed her a favor.

"No." Gu Chenghuai shook his head in denial and explained, "I took it from the mission bonus passbook."

He had two passbooks, one for his allowance and one for his mission bonuses. When they first got married, he had offered both passbooks to his wife. Lin Zhao only took the allowance passbook and left the one for his mission bonuses, leaving it to Gu Chenghuai to keep.

She felt that this was the money he earned with blood and sweat, and she shouldn't take it.

"It's good that I don't owe anyone a favor," said Lin Zhao.

Gu Chenghuai looked at her with deep black eyes, hinting at expectation. "Aren't you afraid that I'll give money to Gu Xing'er, so you'll keep the other passbook as well?"

Lin Zhao's eyes showed helplessness as she spoke softly, "It doesn't matter if you take it or I take it. Who would complain about having too much money? Just leave it nearby and you can take it directly when you need it."

"I don't need it." Gu Chenghuai said in a deep voice.

He didn't want Zhao Zhao to be distant with him.

Isn't he working hard outside to give her and the children a good life? Whether it's an allowance or a task reward, it's the same to him, just a number to make his family live a better life.

"You brought it back?!" Lin Zhao raised his eyebrows.

Gu Chenghuai decisively took out the passbook from his pocket and handed it to her.

Active and self-aware.

"You are the head of the family, you keep it."

"Put the passbook in your pocket." Lin Zhao glared at him in astonishment. Without a word, she took it and stuffed it into her bag without even glancing at it. "You're not afraid of losing it!"

This is his father's hard-earned money! !

Gu Chenghuai's brows relaxed, his black eyes were filled with smiles, and his whole body felt light and cheerful.

The look in his eyes when he looked at his wife became more and more disgusted.

He really likes Zhao Zhao to take care of him.

This made him feel that Zhaozhao cared about him, and she was not the kind of person who would deny her rights just because she had his body and ate his flesh.

"What are you laughing at!" Lin Zhao patted his arm. His arm was as strong as iron. He could lift her up with one hand and walk from the county back to the brigade, and then to the Dongfeng Brigade.

"I'm happy." Gu Chenghuai's voice was filled with laughter.

His voice is deep and pleasant to begin with, and when he smiles it becomes even more alluring and seductive, making people's ears warm.

"Are you stupid? You're happy when you're given money." Lin Zhao was happy in her heart, but she complained.

Gu Chenghuai saw that she was saying one thing and thinking another, and he felt better. He said, "I'm happy to give it to you."

"Captain Gu, you are really hopeless!" Lin Zhao took his hand and strode forward.

Gu Chenghuai looked at her profile and smiled without saying a word.

He was beyond saving from the first sight of Zhao Zhao.

After walking a little further, Lin Zhao suddenly stopped and slapped his forehead, "...I forgot my bike!!"

Gu Chenghuai pulled her hand away, reached out and gently touched her forehead, and said helplessly, "If you forget it, then forget it. No one dares to steal it."

Nowadays, all bicycles are licensed and must be registered. Anyone who dares to steal them will be put in jail.

Before Lin Zhao could say anything, Gu Chenghuai took the initiative to invite her, "It's still early, do you want to watch a movie?"

Lin Zhao suddenly remembered that he had said this when they first started dating.

It was winter at that time. Comrade Gu was not as imposing as he is now. He was still a little immature. He didn't even dare to look at her openly, but only dared to glance at her.

I would even feel shy when she saw me, and with my ears red, I would pretend to be calm and answer her questions.

"I miss you. It's been a long time since I watched a movie with you!" Lin Zhao said with a smile.

"Let's go." Gu Chenghuai took her hand and walked towards the cinema. He would let go of her hand as soon as he met someone on the road, but would hold her hand as long as there was no one around. It seemed as if his eyes were fixed on his wife, and he could not get enough of looking at her.

"What if the kids are waiting for me at the village entrance?" Lin Zhao hesitated, and her conscience ached for a moment.

"It's okay, my family is watching over me." Gu Chenghuai didn't care.

He never thought of using his four sons to tie down his wife. Zhao Zhao was first Lin Zhao, then his wife, the mother of four children, and the daughter-in-law of the Gu family.

"You don't even miss them." Lin Zhao said casually.

"Of course I do. How could I not? It's a priceless treasure that you created with so much hardship and blood. It's impossible for me not to think about it." Gu Chenghuai was not taciturn in front of his wife. He said whatever he had to say, for fear that Zhaozhao would think he was bored.

"There's plenty of time to cultivate relationships with them at night. I just want to be alone with you now." His eyes were focused and serious.

In the sunlight, the whole person is glowing.

Lin Zhao tilted her head slightly and just happened to see his sexy Adam's apple and kissable lips.

She smiled and responded happily, "...I want to, too."

Gu Chenghuai lowered his eyes, wanting to kiss her, but couldn't. He withdrew his gaze with regret and took her to the cinema.

"The day I spoke to you on the phone, I took my eldest and second sons to see a movie. They were so happy that they told the other kids in the team about it for several days." Lin Zhao remembered the last time she took her son to the movies and shared this interesting story with his father.

A picture emerged in Gu Chenghuai's mind.

The gentle and beautiful wife was holding their two sons' hands. The eldest son was calm and quiet, and didn't say much. He smiled sweetly at his mother. The second son was jumping around and talking non-stop, asking questions here and there, and was curious about everything. His eyes were bright, very similar to the clear and bright eyes that Zhaozhao saw when he first saw himself.

It makes one's heart collapse in an instant, and then suddenly become soft.

"Thank you for your hard work." He looked serious, tightened his grip on Lin Zhao's hand slightly, and a look of guilt and heartache flashed in his eyes.

He couldn't be with them, and he felt guilty towards Zhao Zhao, his four children, and his parents.

Lin Zhao shook her head and smiled sweetly, "It's okay. You know, the eldest and second cubs are very well behaved and don't give me any trouble. That's why you're the one who's working hard."

After not seeing each other for a long time, the couple had endless things to talk about, especially Gu Chenghuai. He was full of doubts about his wife's changes. He wanted to ask but was afraid of stepping on some landmine and making Zhao Zhao think that he was blaming her for not taking care of the children in the past. He could only keep it in his heart and observe the situation first.

"Are you used to the work? Are you tired?"

Lin Zhao's eyes turned up softly. "Don't you know what a salesperson's job is? It's easy, and I get off work early. I love it."

She shook Gu Chenghuai's arm, her tone light and cheerful, "Dad, you don't know how much I envied those who worked as sales clerks when I was in school."

"I was thinking, how can there be such a comfortable job? It's just displaying the goods, and when someone comes to greet you, you can do whatever you want, even take a nap or knit a sweater, and the pay is not bad. It's like a heavenly job."

“I didn’t expect I could get in.”

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I tell you this, but the night before my first day at work I was so excited I couldn't sleep for a long time. I wanted to talk to someone but..." There was no one.

Gu Chenghuai heard the hidden meaning in her words and his heart suddenly tightened.

Lin Zhao did not need the guilt of her son's father. As early as when she agreed to Gu Chenghuai's proposal, she knew that he was a soldier and would definitely not be able to stay with them like other husbands and fathers.

That’s all I have to say.

She smiled with her eyes curved, calmly changed the subject, and said in a joyful tone: "Cheng Huai, I'm very happy."

Gu Chenghuai's eyes stirred, "As long as you are happy."

"I'm happy. Being a salesperson was my ultimate goal when I was in high school." Lin Zhao looked up at the branches shining in the light, and the light and shadow cast a soft glow on her profile.

"Isn't it strange that I don't have the same lofty ideals as others?" She retracted her gaze and looked at Gu Chenghuai, her tone slightly teasing.

"Not surprising." Gu Chenghuai shook his head, his eyes bright and sincere. "Everyone has their own aspirations. Everyone has the right to choose their own way of life. You're doing great."

Lin Zhao's smile widened. "You always know how to make me happy."

In Gu Chenghuai's heart, it doesn't matter what she is like.

"I'm not kidding you, I'm sincere." Gu Chenghuai emphasized.

"I know." That's why it's more precious.

The two of them talked without stopping and walked straight to the cinema.

At the ticket window, the person selling tickets was still Guo Meizhu.

Some people have no sense of queuing. When they see a lot of people, they deliberately squeeze forward. Several hands reach into the window, which makes people very angry.

Guo Meizhu's pretty face was cold as she roared, "What are you doing? What are you doing? You're all adults, and you don't know how to line up? You're all worse than children. The one with the mole on his hand is still pushing it. Are you trying to take advantage of the situation? I saw it all!"

While cursing.

The hands kept moving.

The eyes are sharp, and no one can successfully cheat tickets by taking advantage of the situation.

Lin Zhao took in everything that happened in front of the ticket window and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Do you know him?" Gu Chenghuai asked.

"Yes, my junior high school classmate." she replied.

Seeing that Guo Meizhu noticed her, Lin Zhao waved towards the ticket window, then pointed to the location of the cinema, indicating that she wanted to watch a movie and asked for two tickets.

Guo Meizhu nodded to indicate that she had received it, and then got busy again.

Seeing that his wife's mouth was a little dry, Gu Chenghuai asked her to stay in the shade. He quickly left to buy soda.

Even though the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, their tacit understanding remained. Lin Zhao knew what he was doing, and there was a smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

After Guo Meizhu finished her work, she came over with two tickets.

"Zhao Zhao, your ticket."

Lin Zhao took it, gave her the money, and stuffed a piece of chocolate into her hand.

"Chocolate?! It's chocolate, right, Zhaozhao?!" Guo Meizhu had never eaten chocolate before. She had heard her cousin in the provincial capital boast about it, saying it was very delicious. All the sugar in the supply and marketing cooperative combined were not as delicious as this thing.

"Yes, it's chocolate." Lin Zhao nodded.

"I heard it was very expensive and not available in the supply and marketing cooperatives. I didn't expect you to have it and be so generous to give it to me. Thank you." Guo Meizhu thanked with a smile.

"You're welcome. You saved the ticket for me," said Lin Zhao.

Speaking of leaving tickets, Guo Meizhu thought of the person she saw from afar, her eyes shining, "Zhao Zhao, who was that person next to you just now? Is that your third brother?"

Lin Zhao was slightly startled and shook her head, "No, he is my lover."

Gu Chenghuai happened to hear these words.

The young soldier, who was as cold as the cold moon, suddenly lost the coldness in his black eyes and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Ah...?!" Guo Meizhu exclaimed in surprise, her expression suddenly becoming complicated and a little weird.

Is this the country guy that classmates talk about privately, the ugly and unfashionable one?
Earthy?

Ugly?

Are you all blind? !
"What's wrong?" Lin Zhao frowned slightly.

Guo Meizhu didn't want those unfounded rumors to affect Zhao Zhao's mood, so she quickly shook her head and said, "No, it's nothing. Your husband is such a nice person."

She is indeed worthy of being Lin Zhao.

She said that the words "self-degradation" are not too far away from Lin Zhao. She has always been sober and knows what she is doing.

"Oh." Lin Zhao didn't ask any further questions. She said goodbye to her and followed Gu Chenghuai into the cinema.

The newlyweds, who have been separated for a long time, just entered the cinema and are enjoying their sweet world of two, while the four children and two dogs at the village entrance are waiting anxiously.

"Brother, why hasn't mom come back yet?" Erzai asked impatiently.

He and his brother had just finished washing clothes, and the hems of their clothes and trouser legs were a little wet, and the sandals on their feet were covered in mud.

The eldest son kept his eyes fixed on the place where his mother usually appeared, without letting go for a moment, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

The fourth child tilted his head, blinked his large, watery, clear eyes, and suddenly uttered two puzzled words: "...Lost?"

Erzai grinned, bursting out a loud laugh, deliberately drawing out the tone, "Do you think your mother is you...?"

"Ha ha ha ha!!"

"Mom is an adult! An adult!! How could an adult get lost? You idiot bastard!"

The little kid's face turned red with anger, his arms like lotus root nodes swung like small windmill propellers, and his whole body looked like a kitten with its fur standing on end... He pounced forward with a howl.

"Bad brother!"
