◎One push◎

Before dinner, Cheng Yanzhou and his second brother were called over for questioning.

The questioning between the two ended quickly, and when they came out, they caught up with Xiao Wu delivering a lunch box.

After the Inspection Department took over, the meals for the three of them were also taken over by the Logistics Department. The money for the meals was deducted from the wages of Cheng Yanzhou and Gu Heting, so now you only have to tell them what they want to eat.

He didn't sleep well last night, so Gu Guanning took a few mouthfuls of rice in the afternoon, drank the medicine, and then lay down to rest.

When Cheng Yanzhou came back with the meal, she still hadn't woken up and couldn't wake her up.

Two yellow enamel rice bowls contain one meat and one vegetarian rice bowl respectively.

He chose the portion of Mushu Pork and Carrot Strips and ate them all, leaving the other portion of Pork Vermicelli and Vinegar Shredded Potatoes warm next to the stove, waiting for someone to wake up and eat them while they were still warm.

Before taking a break, Cheng Yanzhou added a few briquettes to the stove and turned the fire up.

He had just returned from outside. When he passed by the lobby, he saw snow falling outside. It would probably be colder at night.

After wiping his face and washing his feet, he got into bed. As soon as he lay down, a warm body rolled into his arms. Cheng Yanzhou immediately hugged the person tightly, lowered his head and asked, "Are you awake? Are you hungry? There are pork vermicelli and potato shreds. How many bites can you eat before going to sleep?"

"Not hungry, I don't want to eat."

Gu Guanning closed his eyes and yawned, "I have a sore throat. I feel bad. I want to drink some water."

"I'll get it for you." Cheng Yanzhou stretched out his arm and poured a glass of water over. After testing the temperature, he said, "It's hot, let it cool down before drinking."

Hearing this, Gu Guanning's half-opened eyes closed again. "Why do I feel like it's not much warmer than yesterday even with the stove?"

The bottom of the tank was warm. Cheng Yanzhou put it against her face and said, "It's snowing outside. I just added coal. It will be warm when the stove heats up."

The weather is cold and the water is getting cold quickly.

Gu Guanning held the jar that was bigger than her face and drank all the water. "I still want to drink."

Cheng Yanzhou took it and looked at it, poured another half cup and kept it warm.

Gu Guanning lay back, wrapped himself in quilt and asked him: "What questions did they ask you? Did they say when they would let us out?"

"Today is the first day of the lunar month, and the last train back to Nanhe County is on the seventh day of the lunar month. It's just a few days. We need to prepare things for the journey. If we delay any longer, it will really be a waste."

Rubbing her hair, Cheng Yanzhou muttered, "I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time."

Gu Guanning sighed, "I called two days ago and my mother said she would take me there. Popcorn poppers in the county. My mother also said that the river east of the brigade will be iced for fishing this winter, so we can eat fresh fish in the winter."

Cheng Yanzhou smiled and said, "The streets in the city are celebrating the New Year here. You can also see popping popcorn on the street. Last year I had to prepare for the competition. This year, when I have time off, we will take a few days off to live in the city. Then I will take you around the city to go to the toilet. Two streets, it's still not enough." Gu Guanning shook his head, "Then it will be just the two of us during the New Year this year."
