Chapter 653: 653 Kisses......

Gao Ping brought in the dumplings and placed them in front of Lin Weiguo, saying, "Weiguo, eat up and see if they are to your taste."

"They definitely are," Lin Weiguo responded without even tasting, "All these years, I’ve been missing mom’s cooking."

The taste of home is something you never forget, no matter where you go.

When they heard Lin Weiguo had returned, other members of the Lin Family also came to the main house, even Lin Xiuyuan and Zhao Shuzhen, who didn’t like going out in the dead of winter, were there.

After some conversation and while Kuwa was taken out to play by Zhicheng and the others, Zhao Shuzhen asked, "Weiguo, what are your thoughts regarding that child?"

Lin Weiguo was worried his family might be reluctant and felt somewhat uneasy, but spoke with exceptional determination, "...I want to take Kuwa as my godson!"

If he didn’t intervene, his comrade’s child would be ruined!

Wanting to persuade his family to agree, Lin Weiguo shared Kuwa’s story.

Yu Gen’s wife had remarried and had a new pair of children, completely casting Kuwa aside and even refusing to speak of her.

The family was getting by on Yu Gen’s pension money quite well.

Lin Weiguo brought along a comrade from the military department to the brigade where Kuwa’s birth mother was, and together with the captain, they demanded that the woman return Yu Gen’s pension money.

Such a selfish and heartless woman naturally didn’t want to.

In the end, they had to use some special measures to retrieve some of the money from the brigade, with that woman and her new family compensating with their labor points.

Ignoring the woman’s wailing and the man’s frustration, Lin Weiguo strode away with his people.

After leaving there, he changed Kuwa’s name and then rushed home with the child overnight.

The Lin Family felt deep sympathy upon hearing of Kuwa’s plight.

"How can there be such a mother!" Gao Ping said angrily and incredulously, "A mother should feed her child even if she goes without. It’s instinct. That woman, Yu Gen’s daughter-in-law... sigh, even if she wanted to remarry, she should’ve taken her child with her. How could she bear to abandon her own flesh and blood?"

Li Xiuli couldn’t understand it either; just putting herself in the situation for a moment caused her heart to ache.

"...It’s unbelievable what some people are capable of!"

As a few women remotely criticized the woman whose face they didn’t know, Lin Tang shifted her attention and said, "Uncle, I have an idea..."

The moment she spoke, Lin Fu immediately straightened up with a smile on his face, asking, "What’s up? Tangtang, what idea have you got?"

His eyes and brow were all smiles, rendering Lin Weiguo somewhat stunned.

The image of his father that he remembered was still stuck on the impressions of severity and sorrow.

Lin Tang: "What do you think about building a school for our brigade?"

"Clang!" Lin Fu’s cup fell from his hand.

He didn’t even bother to pick it up and scratched his ear incredulously, "Start a school?! Aren’t we stepping a bit too far ahead?"

Building a school, huh!

The land could be easily procured, and building the school was feasible, but what about teachers, principals...? They had to consider all aspects.

It was going to be tough.

Lin Tang shrugged casually, "How is that a big step? With the economy getting started, it’s time to pay attention to education. We can learn if we lack experience. And don’t we already have ready-made teachers among the educated youths? They are all highly capable; it’s a waste to have them farming. It would be better to have them become teachers."

In those days, the standard of high school graduates was nothing to sneeze at.

Each one of them was a talent.

Lin Fu listened to his niece’s words, his gaze deepening as he pondered them carefully.

Gu Yingzhou added, "Considering the current situation outside, building a school in the brigade is all advantages and no disadvantages."

Upon hearing this, Lin Fu made up his mind.

"Good, we’ll build it. We’ll start after the New Year."

The sight of those educated youths working the fields really made him want to scratch his head.

People need to be placed in suitable positions; those who are fit for the fields shouldn’t be in an office, and office workers can’t handle fieldwork.

Seeing her uncle agree, Lin Tang smiled slightly.

Quality education was going to be on the agenda soon.

Hopefully, the proverb ’You are influenced by the company you keep’ wouldn’t be a joke anymore.

The room was stuffy; seeing that there were no major issues left, Lin Tang stepped outside.

Kuwa was being engaged in conversation by several children of the Lin Family, and the atmosphere looked quite cheerful.

Ruffling Zhicheng’s hair, she spoke with meaningful depth, "...Get along well with Little Ping’an."

A child who knows how to cling to the right leg has a promising future.

Lin Zhicheng looked baffled, "..."

-

After the New Year, Gu Yingzhou suddenly received a call from home, telling him something had happened.

Upon receiving the news, he quickly packed his things, handed over his work at the factory to Jiu Wei, picked up his luggage and his little ancestor, and headed to Lin Tang’s place.

Seeing her partner’s expression slightly grave, Lin Tang’s heart skipped a beat.

"What happened?"

Since there was still some time before the next train, Gu Yingzhou wasn’t in a hurry.

He pulled Lin Tang down to sit with him, his voice slightly heavy, "Something happened at home, and I need to return to Jing City immediately. This time... I can’t take you with me."

The situation at home was unclear, and Tangtang’s work hadn’t been properly handed over yet; she would have to wait until next time.

"What’s the matter? Weren’t we prepared?" Lin Tang paled slightly.

Gu Yingzhou touched her face, speaking softly, "It’s nothing serious; grandpa had an incident, so I need to go back and see."

He had been raised by his grandfather since he was little and had a close relationship with the elderly man; he was quite anxious after hearing the news.

Lin Tang heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as it wasn’t too serious.

Thinking of her current assignments, she pursed her lips, "Why so sudden!"

The confidential documents of the fine-spinning machine needed to be sorted out by her, something no one else could handle; it was urgent, and she couldn’t leave for the time being.

They had previously agreed that she would finish her tasks and then go to Jing City with Xiaogu.

Seeing the slight pout on the young girl’s lips, Gu Yingzhou leaned in and kissed her.

When he saw her bright, sparkling eyes, a smile appeared at the bottom of his eyes.

"There will be other chances if you can’t go this time. It’s not comfortable to travel to Jing City at this season anyway. When spring comes and flowers bloom, and you have time, I’ll take you there. Wherever you want to go, you can go, alright?"

His voice was deep and pleasant to listen to.

Lin Tang internally sighed, "Alright, there’s nothing else to be done."

Having said that, she reluctantly sat on Gu Yingzhou’s lap, wrapping her arms around his neck.

In her mind, if he dared push her away, she’d bite him.

Gu Yingzhou also couldn’t bear to part with his little girl; his arms tightened, pulling her into his embrace.

Resting his head on Lin Tang’s neck, he said warmly, "Take good care of yourself at home, keep warm, eat well. I’ll be back in at most a month, and I’ll bring you a gift. What do you want?"

"Books."

Gu Yingzhou chuckled softly upon this response.

It was as he expected.

The sound was soft and made his heart flutter with delight.

Lin Tang turned and gently pecked at his long, white neck.

"Don’t laugh."

After speaking, she watched as spots of rosy blush spread on that porcelain neck, quickly reaching his ears.

His cool and clear eyes became vibrant, like the begonia flowers of April.

"Zhouzhou, you are really handsome."

Lin Tang cupped Gu Yingzhou’s face, her fingers tracing his features, her eyes filled with affection.

Gu Yingzhou felt as if his heart had been filled with honey’s sweetness.

Gently pinching the chin of the person in his arms, he bent down and kissed her lips.
