Qin Yunzhou rarely saw Xu Sui smile so happily. Her clear and beautiful eyes looked over, filled with his image, making his heart skip a beat.

He paused slightly, his gaze involuntarily falling on Xu Sui's fair face, lingering there for a long time, before nodding earnestly.

"Hmm, that's impressive."

The cramped room was almost only enough to sit on the bed.

Upon hearing this, Xu Sui smiled even more brightly. She walked over and sat down next to Qin Yunzhou, subconsciously taking his arm, tilting her head back to lean closer to him, and staring intently at the man's angular, refined, and handsome profile.

"Really? You're not lying to me?"

From this angle, this person looks even better.

His skin was fair and flawless, his nose was high and straight, his eyebrows and eyes were deep, and his overall demeanor clearly indicated that he was a cultured person with higher education, carrying a faint scholarly air.

If he wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, people would probably believe he was an intellectual working in cultural education at a university.

It's a pity she didn't have any of those gold-rimmed glasses; otherwise, she really wanted to put them on him and let him try them on.

They were so close, practically touching, as if a slight turn of the head would brush against the other's face. Feeling the other's warm breath, Qin Yunzhou's ears turned slightly red.

He swallowed hard, forcing himself to stay still and to ignore the woman's soft hands holding his arm.

"Really, I'm not lying."

"Most of the staff at the grain depot were either transferred there or had relatives who were employees; very few people got in on their own merit like you."

The woman's faint fragrance wafted over from the close proximity.

Before Xu Sui, Qin Yunzhou had never been so close to a woman, and even after they established a relationship, they rarely got this close.

Even when they sleep at night, each with their own blanket, the other person might occasionally roll into her arms, but that's when she's asleep and not fully awake, and it's usually late at night.

But right now, Xu Sui is awake, and it's not dark outside yet.

For some reason, Qin Yunzhou's face grew increasingly hot, and his heart pounded faster, making him hesitant to turn his head to look at the person beside him.

For a fleeting moment, he seemed to understand why some men were so eager to get married.

Xu Sui also felt that she had performed well. She released Qin Yunzhou's arm, cleared her throat, and told him roughly about her next plan.

"Actually, getting into the grain depot was just my first small goal."

"Next, I plan to work while preparing for next year's college entrance examination. Judging by the time, I should be just out of my postpartum period by then, which will be just in time."

"This may require your and your family's support. At that time, I will not be able to take care of the child much. Your leg should be healed by then, and you will have to go back to the army. We will have to trouble your parents to help us take care of the child."

"So, I want to go to university. Will you support me?" Since they were already husband and wife, Xu Sui didn't want to beat around the bush and simply asked the question directly, staring intently at Qin Yunzhou to see his reaction.

Although she was asking him, she had already made up her mind about taking the college entrance exam and had planned it out long ago.

It may seem like a question, but it's actually a way of letting him know in advance.

For Xu Sui, family and children are important, but she herself is also important. Having children is one thing, but she never wants to limit her identity to being a mother and a wife, spending her whole life revolving around them.

Therefore, Xu Sui will never let go of any opportunity to improve herself, nor will she give up for anyone.

Of course, it would be best if she could have the support of Qin Yunzhou and others, as they could help share some of the pressure. If not, that's fine too; she can manage on her own even if it's a bit tiring.

Qin Yunzhou was taken aback, not expecting Xu Sui to bring up this matter.

He thought for a moment, "I support your desire to go to university, but won't it be too tiring for you to work and study at the same time while pregnant?"

People who know how to improve themselves deserve respect and admiration.

Getting into university isn't easy; even getting into a regular university or junior college isn't easy.

In a county-level high school, sometimes even if students study hard all year round, they may not be able to get into university.

Therefore, if you want to pass the exam, it's best to go all out and study hard for a year. The learning atmosphere at home is definitely not as good as at school.

If she really wanted to go to university, he could actually use his connections to let her repeat her second year of high school. However, she is currently working and pregnant, so she probably wouldn't want to go back to school.

Xu Sui had thought about this issue long ago, otherwise she wouldn't have made this plan.

"I'm definitely tired, but I enjoy these fulfilling days."

"My job at the grain station is in an office. When I came out of the grain station today, I ran into Brother Hong and asked him. There are more than just me as a purchasing agent at the grain station. I don't have to run around or do any manual labor."

"All I need to do is organize the purchasing information, make a phone call to the delivery people, and communicate with them."

"Even if I travel for work occasionally, I won't go too far, so I won't get tired."

Hong Tao is the logistics director, and she is a purchasing agent under Hong Tao's supervision. What she said cannot be false.

Qin Yunzhou was silent for a moment. "So you had already planned this all along: work during the day, study for the exam at night, and then take the college entrance exam next year after giving birth and finishing your postpartum confinement. If you pass, you'll go straight to university?"

"Have you thought about how to resolve the issue of exam eligibility?"

She has been out of school for a year now and has gotten married. It won't be easy for her to go back and take the college entrance exam again; there are many issues involved.

Xu Sui looked at Qin Yunzhou and blinked.

"I've thought about it, and I think you have a solution, so that's why I've come to ask for your help."

"You just said you'd support me, which means you definitely have a way, right?"

With such a great opportunity right beside you, you should definitely take advantage of it when the time is right. This is called making good use of resources, and it's also a form of personal ability.

She never felt there was anything wrong with asking for help.

It's all about finding shortcuts and making things easier for yourself.

Qin Yunzhou did indeed have a solution. He raised an eyebrow slightly, and a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes as he looked at Xu Sui. "You do trust me."

"Of course, given our current relationship, who else would I trust if I didn't trust you?" Receiving a reassuring reply, Xu Sui finally felt relieved and answered without hesitation.

He's a future big shot; he's just temporarily injured and has gone back to his hometown. He's not really crippled.

In that historical novel.

The Qin family's situation was only dire at the beginning. It was because Qin Yunzhou was in a slump and suffered various setbacks that he couldn't take care of the Qin family, which is why things became so bad.

Later, just one year later, Qin Yunzhou recovered from his injuries and returned to the army. He rose through the ranks, and those in the Qin family who had been kind to him also benefited. Their lives underwent a dramatic transformation and became prosperous.
