Chapter 25 Returning to My Hometown to Take Care of the Children

Zhang Qianjin closed his eyes in anguish, trying his best to suppress the urge to fight.

"If I don't hear from you and Ji Sisi when I get back at noon today, I'll buy you a ticket the day after tomorrow, and I'll also apply to have the leadership take back the house. I'll be living in the dormitory from now on, and if you don't leave, you won't have a place to live."

Zhang Qianjin got up and strode away.

Wang Cuicui chased after him, yelling and cursing at his retreating figure, "Zhang Qianjin, you're a complete coward! You don't care when your woman is being bullied, you help others bully your woman, you're not a real man at all! I'm so unlucky to have married you, I'm getting my just desserts!"

Wang Cuicui started crying as she cursed. She angrily raised her hand to wipe away her tears and looked at his resolute back.

She turned around and saw the two children in the main room, one big and one small, both blinking at her. Wang Cuicui felt like she had grasped a lifeline, so she quickly went back into the room and picked up one child in each arm.

"Yuanyuan, Xiaoman, hurry and tell your dad not to send us away! You two go after him! Hurry up!"

Wang Cuicui forcefully pushed the child out.

Zhang Xiaoyuan's eyes were filled with fear of Wang Cuicui, and her childish voice trembled with fear.

"Mom, I'm going to chase after Dad."

Zhang Xiaoman, the one-year-old daughter, did not understand why her mother was suddenly like this, but when she saw her mother suddenly acting crazy, she was so frightened that she opened her mouth wide and started crying.

Wang Cuicui urged, "Xiaoyuan, hurry up and go. I know I didn't give birth to you in vain."

Zhang Xiaoyuan ran out without looking back, trying to find her father's workplace based on her memory.

The alarm clock woke Ji Sisi from her sleep. She groggily got out of bed, but fell back down a few seconds later.

This soft, big bed is so comfortable to sleep in!
Ji Sisi closed her eyes and felt the bed. It was indeed worth the 10,000 yuan she had spent on it.

Unfortunately, if she sleeps with Qi Yan in the future, she won't be able to enjoy the big bed anymore.

Thinking of Qi Yan, Ji Sisi sat up in bed again. She blinked at a certain spot, her eyes clear, bright and lively. Her cherry lips were slightly upturned, her cheeks flushed pink, and she was secretly looking forward to something.

Stepping out of the space, it was just dawn. Ji Sisi opened the window and breathed in the fresh air, which was filled with a sweet fragrance.

Ji Sisi pushed open the door and ran into Qi Yan pouring porridge.

"I smelled the porridge as soon as I finished washing up, and I knew it was you who came back with breakfast." Ji Sisi sat down and looked at the sweet potato porridge in the bowl.

Qi Yan met her clear, almond-shaped eyes, her black and white hair casually draped over her shoulders, and she looked adorable.

Seeing her, Qi Yan's fatigue from staying up all night vanished.

Qi Yan asked, "Why are you up so early? Did I disturb your rest?"

"No, what time did you get back last night? I saw you were almost ten o'clock and you still hadn't come back."

Ji Sisi held the small bowl and drank the porridge. Her mouth was filled with a sweet aroma. Her stomach, which had been empty all night, was now satisfied, and her expression was one of contentment.

“I slept in the yard last night. If I’m not back by nine o’clock in the future, don’t wait for me. Lock the door and get some rest.”

Qi Yan also took a big gulp of porridge. Even though he had been drinking porridge for almost five years, for some reason, this morning's porridge seemed to taste much better than usual.

Ji Sisi nodded, "I'm going to dig for cordyceps with Shen Zichen this morning, and I probably won't be back until noon or afternoon."

Qi Yan's gaze froze, and her hand holding the bowl tightened slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Okay, try to come back around noon. The altitude is high, and the work is much more tiring than usual. It takes a lot of physical exertion, and I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle it."

“I already spoke with Brother Zhang yesterday. He asked you to deliver the items before tonight. It’s not certain if you can get them exchanged the first time, so it’s best not to send too many. Just pick some good ones to try.”

Qi Yan offered Ji Sisi some advice. Ji Sisi agreed, realizing she had underestimated the situation. "Okay, tell me where he lives, and I'll deliver it to him after I finish digging."

"He is Wang Cuicui's husband, his name is Zhang Qianjin, you can just call him Brother Zhang. He is our purchasing assistant."

Wang Cuicui? Ji Sisi's lips twitched.

I met Wang Cuicui's husband yesterday. He seemed like a reasonable person, but will Wang Cuicui agree to it?
Qi Yan saw through her concerns. "Don't worry, she won't do anything to you. Brother Zhang promised me last night that he would handle everything. You can send it over with peace of mind."

"Okay, I listen to you!"

With Wang Cuicui's big problem solved, Ji Sisi was no longer worried and was overjoyed.

Qi Yan's words reminded her of a saying: "Being loved is like having a powerful backer."

Yesterday was the same. When Qi Yan wasn't around, although she wasn't intimidated or afraid of Wang Cuicui's slander and interrogation, she always felt like she was fighting alone. After Qi Yan spoke up for her, she felt much more at ease.

After the meal, Ji Sisi volunteered to wash the dishes. She had never cooked or washed dishes before, as she always ate in the cafeteria. Qi Yan then washed the dishes.

Ji Sisi noticed that Qi Yan's eyes were dark and he was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday. She guessed that he probably hadn't rested well and wanted to help him.

"Be careful, and remember to bring your medicine." Qi Yan reminded Ji Sisi like a concerned mother before seeing her out.

Ji Sisi looked up at Qi Yan, who was a head taller than her. He had the face of a cool and handsome man, but at this moment he looked like a mother.

The contrast was so striking that Ji Sisi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely take good care of myself!"

Ji Sisi carried a small basket on her back, which contained a small hoe she had borrowed from Li Hongying, and walked alone toward the snow-capped mountains.
-
Shen Zichen and the team leader took half a day off and arrived early at the place they had agreed to meet Ji Sisi.

Upon seeing Ji Sisi, he couldn't help but ask with concern, "Is there any progress with the method you mentioned?"

“Yes, my fiancé asked the procurement department of the hospital for me. He’s going to the county town tomorrow and will ask around for me.” Ji Sisi also told Shen Zichen about Qi Yan’s suggestion.

Shen Zichen agreed.

After yesterday's learning, Ji Sisi's efficiency has increased dramatically today thanks to the tools she has been using.

She knelt on the ground, skillfully parted the grass to find the cordyceps, then estimated the distance, swung the hoe down, and then hooked the hoe back up, digging up the entire clump of soil, finally obtaining a whole cordyceps.

This isn't cordyceps, it's money!

Once she can scrape together two thousand yuan to unlock the Marrow Cleansing Pill, she won't have to worry about her body collapsing at any moment.

[Host, if you become pregnant, I'll give you ten Marrow Cleansing Pills and Whitening Pills for free!]

The system suddenly appeared, startling Ji Sisi so much that her hand trembled and she almost dug up some cordyceps.

Ji Sisi: [I don't believe it. Unless I reward you with one pill first to show my sincerity, and then give you a whitening pill to see its effectiveness.]

System: [Host, the sound of your abacus is deafening.]

Ji Sisi burst out laughing, not expecting the system to see through her little trick.

Shen Zichen, who was digging for caterpillar fungus in front of her, looked at Ji Sisi with a puzzled expression. "What's wrong?"
