Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 262 She felt as if she were being watched by something!
The government had a unified boat, and everyone would come out together every day. Apart from handing over a portion of the harvest, the rest would be distributed among each household.

This is actually the same as the villagers in Huaihua Village. Every household works in the fields to earn work points. Every year, part of the harvested grain is handed over to the public grain, and the rest is distributed to each household according to the number of work points.

As Gu Jianing listened to Sheng Zexi's words, she thought about the future.

Soon, the household contract responsibility system will be implemented.

At that time, land can be contracted out, forests can be contracted out, and fishermen can also buy boats from the government and go out to sea on their own.

It's coming soon, very soon, in the near future.

"I wonder if the military wives on the island are easy to get along with..." Gu Jianing murmured.

After spending several years with the wives of soldiers in the Northwest Military Region, Gu Jianing had a very good impression of them.

Although some people were not so easy to get along with, no one dared to disrespect Gu Jianing because of her identity as a doctor, Sheng Zexi's position as deputy regimental commander, and her reputation as the "Jade-Faced Yama" in the military region.

"It's alright. If anyone dares to bully you, or Xingxing and Yueyue, you can bully them back. I'll back you up," Shengze practically patted his chest in assurance.

Gu Jianing smiled, her eyes crinkling, "You're so kind."

It's so wonderful to have a husband who can always stand up for you.

Xingxing and Yueyue looked at their father with bright eyes, their eyes full of admiration.

"I remember you mentioned before that the island kindergarten was specifically for the children of military personnel?" Gu Jianing asked.

"Yes, there are." Since he was going to the island, Sheng Zexi naturally wanted to find out about the situation there first.

Coincidentally, Sheng Zexi had a comrade-in-arms named Zhao Weiguo, who was the director of the logistics department of the island military region on Huansha Island.

So Sheng Zexi learned about the situation on the island from him in advance.

"Are you planning to send Xingxing and Yueyue to that kindergarten?" Sheng Zexi guessed Gu Jianing's thoughts.

"Yes, you're busy, and I've also been transferred to work at a hospital on Huansha Island. I don't have much time either. Xingxing and Yueyue are actually two years old, and three years old by the Chinese age reckoning. I think it's fine to send them to kindergarten."

"Xingxing, Yueyue, do you want to go?" Gu Jianing asked, bowing her head, realizing she hadn't asked the two children's opinions yet.

Kindergarten was a novel place for Xingxing and Yueyue, so after Gu Jianing explained what kindergarten was, both children nodded.

"Mom, if we go to kindergarten, you won't be too tired."

"There's a little brother in Mommy's tummy too."

Yueyue placed her little hand on Gu Jianing's belly and said in a soft voice.

Xingxing nodded as well. Although he was a man of few words, he agreed with his sister.

Gu Jianing was slightly taken aback. So, the child's willingness to go to kindergarten was also to prevent her from getting tired.

She's so young, yet she already knows how to think about her mother.

Gu Jianing's eyes welled up with tears, and she hugged the two children tightly, saying, "You are so kind."

"Mom thinks that Mom must have done a lot of good deeds, which is why Xingxing and Yueyue were able to become my children."

What mother wouldn't love such a sweet and adorable baby?

Xingxing and Yueyue were held in Gu Jianing's arms, their eyes crinkling with joy.

Suddenly, Xingxing thought of something.

"Daddy, have Amber and Zai Zai gotten there yet?" Xing Xing asked.

"We've arrived. Amber and the others arrived a long time ago; they're probably guarding our home now."

"Don't worry, Dad has asked the uncle who is on good terms with Dad to feed Amber and her baby every day."

Xingxing and Yueyue breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

The two little ones have a deep bond with Amber and his babies. Almost from the moment they were born, Amber and the babies have been with Xingxing and Yueyue.

Now, their family is moving from the Northwest Military Region to Huansha Island.

The Amber family of five would naturally go with them. However, considering that they needed to return to Huaihua Village first for a month, it wouldn't be convenient for the Amber family of five to come along.

So, they asked someone to take Amber and her family of five to Huansha Island.

"Now, Amber and the others are in their new home, waiting for us to come over. We'll be able to meet them soon."

"it is good."
-
Huansha Island has a changeable climate.

At this time of year, in October, Huansha Island had just experienced a rain shower, which had taken away some of the warmth.

The temperature, which was originally 33 degrees Celsius, has now dropped to around 20 degrees Celsius.

Recently, the daytime temperature on Huansha Island has been quite high, but it feels cooler in the mornings and evenings.

At this moment, in the military compound on the island, an old woman looked at the newest and largest bungalow. Seeing that the door was open, she thought for a moment and then went inside.

“My son is a regimental-level officer. Why wasn’t this house allocated to him? Instead, it was given to an outside officer. It’s so unfair.”

"I heard there are quite a few things already inside."

"No, even if we can't stay in there, we have to get our things back."

This old woman's name is Niu Fen. She had been living on Huansha Island with her eldest son, Zhang Jianjun, who was serving in the army long ago.

Not long ago, Zhang Jianjun was promoted to regimental-level cadre and was able to choose a larger house in the family compound.

Niu Fen had long coveted this house. Only one family lived in it after it was built—Jiang Lü—but he was transferred away recently.

So the house was left empty, and many things inside were not moved out.

Niu Fen thought to herself, "It would be so great if I could move into this house."

She then asked her son, Zhang Jianjun, to try and win him over.

As a result, Zhang Jianjun tried to fight for it, but the house was ultimately not allocated to them.

Instead, it was assigned to an officer who was about to be transferred from another place, I think his surname was Sheng.

The house Zhang Jianjun was reassigned to wasn't bad either, and it was large, but the location wasn't as good. Most importantly, it was empty inside, with nothing in it, so he had to spend money to buy whatever he needed.

Niu Fen was furious about this and even went to her superiors to make a scene.

However, a satisfactory result was not achieved.

And so, every time she passes by here, looking at this house, she is filled with resentment.

The door had been locked when she passed by before, but now it was open.

Although the reason is unknown, it gave her a chance to go in.

She didn't open that door.
She just went in to take a look.

Of course, only Niu Fen herself knows her true purpose.

She heard that the officer surnamed Sheng was coming in the next couple of days.

If she comes, then she will have absolutely no chance.

Niu Fen was not about to accept this.

Even taking just one item from this house would be good.

Seeing that there was no one else around, Niu Fen boldly walked in.

As they went inside, the place was empty. Niu Fen immediately spotted the thermos on the table.

Her eyes lit up; that was something really good.

We have to take it back!

Niu Fen quickly picked up the thermos, and just as she was about to check if there was anything else, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She felt as if she was being watched by something!
