Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Returning to Her Mother’s Home

Yan Zhen Guo looked at Gu Fuqiao, who didn’t speak, and continued, "Choose one."

Gu Fuqiao looked at Yan Zhen Guo’s face, which was both roguish and righteous, and couldn’t suppress her anger. She simply stretched her foot onto his knee and said, "Apply the medicine!"

Yan Zhen Guo chuckled softly, poured some liquid medicine onto the top of Gu Fuqiao’s foot, and said, "I’ve been busy before, so I haven’t accompanied you back to your parents’ home. Counting it up, this will be our first visit since we got married. We’ll go to the market tomorrow to buy the things we need to take back. What do you want to bring home?"

What to bring home?

How would Gu Fuqiao know? She wasn’t familiar with the original host’s family, but she couldn’t say that to Yan Zhen Guo.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "I don’t have experience with this... you handle it."

"Sounds good. We’ll see at the market tomorrow. Your family doesn’t lack other things, so let’s just bring some... candies. There’s some grain and oil from last time at home, we’ll take some of that back too." Yan Zhen Guo suggested after thinking.

Although the original host’s family didn’t lack anything, in these times, some things couldn’t be bought with money.

"Okay." Gu Fuqiao nodded.

The next day, Gu Fuqiao naturally opened her eyes a little after six, but Yan Zhen Guo was even earlier.

She put on her clothes and walked into the living room, seeing Yan Zhen Guo placing some rice and oil on the table.

"We’re not making breakfast this morning. We’re going straight to the food market and will eat outside later." Yan Zhen Guo turned and said, "You have ten minutes to wash up."

Upon hearing this command, Gu Fuqiao immediately went to the bathroom to wash up.

However, her washing speed was always quick, and it didn’t even take ten minutes.

Yan Zhen Guo, still dressed smartly, carried the things and walked in front while Gu Fuqiao followed in a floral dress.

The two of them really did have the feeling of newlyweds returning to the bride’s family.

The market in the 80s was not much different from modern markets, but in this serious era, everything was solemn.

When buying sugar at the supply and marketing cooperative, Gu Fuqiao looked around. She had been to this cooperative before, but at that time she didn’t have a single ticket and couldn’t buy anything.

After entering, Yan Zhen Guo went directly to the candy counter. The sales clerk for candies was an older auntie.

The sales clerk, seeing such a handsome young couple, couldn’t help but smile a bit more, "What do you want to buy?"

"A pound of this candy and two pounds of that one," Yan Zhen Guo pointed at two types of candies and then took out the sugar tickets.

"Okay, I’ll weigh them for you right away." The clerk took the tickets from Yan Zhen Guo and began weighing the candies.

Gu Fuqiao wasn’t really into candies. Seeing that there were no White Rabbit candies that she liked, she glanced over at the nearby counter.

Seeing the fabric counter, she remembered she wanted to make pajamas for Yan Zhen Guo.

But with Yan Zhen Guo’s height, it would probably waste a lot of fabric tickets.

"Let’s go." After weighing the candy, Yan Zhen Guo took the candies and walked out.

Seeing Yan Zhen Guo leave, Gu Fuqiao quickly followed him out.

Yan Zhen Guo found a breakfast stall, ordered two bowls of porridge and some buns, and sat down.

"Here, have some candy." After Gu Fuqiao sat down, Yan Zhen Guo took out two candies from the candy bag and handed them to her.

Yan Zhen Guo remembered that the girls in their yard generally liked eating candies.

Although Gu Fuqiao wasn’t a little girl, her stature was similar to the girls in their compound, so she should like candies too.

Gu Fuqiao looked at the candies in Yan Zhen Guo’s hand and asked softly, "You’re giving these to me?"

In her memory, apart from her grandmother giving her White Rabbit candies, no one else had given her any.

After her grandmother passed away, no one gave her candies anymore.

Her grandmother was born in the 40s, and in her grandmother’s eyes, candies were a rare treat.

"If you don’t want them, never mind." Yan Zhen Guo glanced at Gu Fuqiao and was about to put the two candies back.

"No! I want them!" Gu Fuqiao quickly snatched the candies back.

Yan Zhen Guo hadn’t intended to take the candies back, so Gu Fuqiao easily got them in her hands.

The candies were domestic corn sugar and an unknown sugar made from brown sugar.

Thinking that, in Yan Zhen Guo’s eyes, these candies were good enough to be gifts, she thought she should treat him better in the future since he gave her these good things...

With that in mind, Gu Fuqiao unwrapped a corn candy and put it in her mouth.

After breakfast, the two headed towards the Gu Family’s house.

The Gu Family was well-off and lived in a large building that, in today’s terms, could be called a villa.

Moreover, the decor was quite stylish.

Gu Fuqiao glanced at the house, then thought about the place she and Yan Zhen Guo lived...

"Are you feeling homesick?" Since Yan Zhen Guo seldom saw Gu Fuqiao looking so low-spirited since they shared a room together, he asked.

"No, it just feels like it’s been a long time since I left." Gu Fuqiao shook her head.

Seeing that Yan Zhen Guo kept looking at her, she was afraid he might overthink and lower her impression score, so she added, "After all, it’s my family... it’s normal not to have come back for so long. But I think living in a small house feels more cozy for two people."

Hearing Gu Fuqiao’s words, Yan Zhen Guo reached out to hold her hand, paused for a moment, then said, "Let’s go in."

"Okay!" Gu Fuqiao nodded.

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman with neatly combed hair and wearing a blue cloth outfit. When she saw Gu Fuqiao behind Yan Zhen Guo, she couldn’t hide the joy in her eyes.

Gu Fuqiao thought, could this be the original host’s mother?

Just then, the middle-aged woman happily turned back and called out to the people inside, "The eldest daughter is back."
