Chapter 782: Peaceful and Fulfilling
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Hu Jing showed no regard for decorum, declaring his departure and driving off abruptly, leaving Hu Jie standing in his wake. The sudden departure left her fuming, her usual composure shattered as she stomped her foot in frustration.
However, once her anger subsided, she found herself without any other recourse. For her, her maternal family was her greatest support, their commands unchallengeable. Having enjoyed their protection, she had to pay the corresponding price. This was a lesson she had learned deeply after her father’s departure.
No one knew how much pain she had endured over the years. On the surface, she was the belle of the military district, greeted with respect by everyone who met her. Yet within her family, she was nothing more than a puppet, always cautious and careful, fearing that one wrong move would cost her position to other girls in the family. It was a consequence she could not bear…
Su Shen, stationed at the new base, found his daily training routine monotonous and tasteless. Five days passed in the blink of an eye. One day, a courier from the military district arrived at Su Shen’s command post, delivering a letter from Guangcheng. “Commander Su, your letter.”
Upon seeing the sender’s name on the envelope, Su Shen’s eyes lit up. He took the letter to his office, closed the door, and began to read it carefully.
After reading, he carefully stored the precious letter, planning to buy some local specialties to send back during his afternoon break. He would bring more when he returned. However, the phrase “green hat” kept lingering in his mind, causing him some worry. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He decided he should make a phone call when he had the time.
Meanwhile, in Guangcheng, Gu Zi’s life remained peaceful and fulfilling. When Mr. and Mrs. Lin learned that she wanted to turn the backyard into a vegetable garden, they took on the task willingly. Over the next few days, they tidied up the backyard, sowing seeds, planting seedlings, setting up trellises where needed, and installing fences where necessary. The backyard was soon brimming with life.
What’s more, Mr. Lin, in his meticulousness, had considered Gu Zi’s convenience when picking vegetables. To prevent her from dirtying her feet, he had Lin Cheng bring cement and stones to pave paths throughout the vegetable garden.
Gu Zi began to understand why her mother could endure so much hardship with him without any complaints or regrets.
