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

Chapter 264 I think, given this weather, it's definitely going to pour rain within half an hour!

But she had no money.

I can only get it from my mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law, however, kept making excuses to delay.

Now that school has started, Zhizhi still hasn't been able to go to school.

Helpless, Chunxing, who had only studied for two years, could only wait for her mother-in-law to bring money while teaching Zhizhi.

Unexpectedly, today, my mother-in-law actually laid her cards on the table.

She just didn't want Zhizhi to go to school!
Chunxing could not tolerate this.

Although Chunxing hadn't read many books, she knew all too well the importance of reading.

She knew that with her abilities, she couldn't help Zhizhi in any way.

She didn't want Zhizhi to end up like her.

She also knew that studying was Zhizhi's only way out.

and so……

As Chunxing watched her mother-in-law's departing figure, she resolved that even if it meant another divorce, even if it meant risking her life, she would ensure that Zhizhi could continue her education!

Over here, Amber looked at her daughter Hongying, who had returned after chasing after that wicked old woman, and shook her head with a smile in her eyes.

Amber gave birth to four children: three sons and one daughter.

Gu Jianing gave each of them a name.

The eldest son is named Thunder, the second son is named Sharp Sword, the third son is named Lightning, and the youngest son, who is a girl, is named Red Tassel.

Of these four little ones, Hongying is the most mischievous.

Amber and the others were first sent to their home on Huansha Island, where they were responsible for looking after the house.

The male owner, Sheng Zexi, also arranged for someone to take care of them and feed them.

That person came today, but forgot to close the door when they left.

Amber didn't think it was a big deal, because they understood the importance of closing down.

Since their master had not yet arrived, they could not go outside.

The kids have been cooped up in the house for a while now.

Today, Amber will play hide-and-seek with them.

Unexpectedly, they noticed someone coming in halfway through the game.

Amber could smell that person's scent immediately.

She would stand at her sister's door every now and then, cursing and swearing, and Amber disliked her aura very much.

But I never expected that she would come in today and even steal things.

So Amber and her four cubs gave her a fright.

The most mischievous red tassels chased after them. They certainly wouldn't bite, but they could still scare people.

"Mommy, when are Xingxing and Yueyue coming?" Hongying ran up to Amber and asked sweetly.

"It'll be here soon, it should be in the next day or two."

"Alright, didn't you want to be military dogs later? Come on, get started training."

"Okay~" The four little ones, who aspired to be military dogs, immediately became serious when training was mentioned.

Meanwhile, the Gu Jianing family of four, who were on the minds of Amber and the others, finally got off the train after a day and a night's journey.

As soon as they got off the train, they saw Zhao Weiguo, Sheng Zexi's comrade-in-arms, who had come to pick them up.

Zhao Weiguo looked quite old, almost forty.

He has regular facial features, a strong build, and looks very honest.

Zhao Weiguo's eyes lit up when he saw Gu Jianing, as well as Xingxing and Yueyue.

He patted Sheng Zexi on the shoulder and said, "You're not bad, kid."

His wife was so beautiful, truly the most beautiful of all the military wives and female soldiers he had ever seen, even the female soldiers in the cultural troupe couldn't compare to her.

No wonder their two children are so exquisite and beautiful.

"Come on, let me treat you to some local specialties first, then we'll take a boat to the island."

Soon, Zhao Weiguo hosted them and led them to a state-run restaurant. Every place has its own unique characteristics.

The most distinctive food in this place is tea and snacks.

Each tea snack was served in a small bamboo basket, making them very delicate and exquisite.

Xingxing and Yueyue were very satisfied with the novel food.

While eating, Sheng Zexi chatted with Zhao Weiguo and reminisced about the past. Gu Jianing also learned from their conversation that it takes more than two hours to take a boat from the port to the island, which is quite a long time.

However, once you get to the island, it's a completely different world.

Outside, the sky was clear and the weather seemed quite nice.

only……

Gu Jianing ate while checking the weather forecast, but frowned when she saw the updated weather.

This weather can be located over a region the size of an entire province.

Therefore, although she is not on Huansha Island now, the weather around her is already shown on the map because the distance is not that far.

Gu Jianing saw on the map that in half an hour, there would be a four-hour downpour on the waterway from the port to Huansha Island.

"Brother Weiguo, I'd like to ask, is there only one waterway from here to Huansha Island?"

Zhao Weiguo was chatting with Sheng Zexi when, unexpectedly, Gu Jianing suddenly asked a question.

Zhao Weiguo paused for a moment, but then answered Gu Jianing's question.

"Yes, that's the only one at the moment."

"What if we encounter a rainstorm on the way? Will that affect us?" Gu Jianing asked again.

"of course!"

"If it's just a light drizzle, that's fine, but heavy rain, or even a downpour, is not good. Visibility will be affected, and if you're trapped at sea, that would be even worse."

"But don't worry, sister-in-law, it won't pour rain today," Zhao Weiguo said, patting his chest.

Gu Jianing remained silent.

Sheng Zexi noticed that something was wrong with Gu Jianing.

He knew that his wife wouldn't make things up without reason.

So I asked, "Ningning, did you figure something out?"

Gu Jianing coughed lightly and said, "I also have some knowledge of the weather. I think it will definitely rain heavily within half an hour!"

"I think it's better for us to postpone our trip."

Zhao Weiguo frowned; his previously good impression of Gu Jianing had somewhat diminished.

This sister-in-law is just talking nonsense.

Why did it suddenly start pouring rain when the weather was perfectly fine?
Besides, my sister-in-law is so young and has never lived in places like the islands before, how would she know about the weather?

Could this be just random talk?

The most important thing is...

"I've purchased some supplies, and I need to transport them back to Huansha Island as soon as possible."

This is one of the reasons. Of course, another reason is that Zhao Weiguo believed in his ability to read the weather and did not trust Gu Jianing's judgment.

Sheng Zexi also noticed Zhao Weiguo's distrust of Ningning.

One is a comrade-in-arms, and the other is his wife. Naturally, Sheng Zexi believes in his wife's abilities.

So, just when Zhao Weiguo thought Sheng Zexi would stand on his side, or even blame Gu Jianing.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Zexi asked Gu Jianing, "Ningning, how long do you think this downpour will last?"

"It's estimated to last for 4 hours."

Sheng Zexi frowned, then said to Zhao, "Brother Zhao, since it's going to rain heavily, I plan to find a place to settle down here first, and then go to Huansha Island tomorrow."

"Brother Zhao, what's your opinion?"

Zhao Weiguo never expected that Sheng Zexi would actually believe his beautiful wife's words.

He said, "Then I have to go back first. I can't help it, I need to get my supplies to the island as soon as possible, and besides, I don't think it will rain today." Let alone a downpour!
