Chapter 195: Vent My Spleen To Enjoy My Engagement (2) (1/2)

Five to six years?

Gu Conghua and Wen Ruyu were taken aback when they heard that, and they turned to look at Gu Qingyao.

“Who told you that?”

Gu Qingyao pursed her lips and thought before saying, “Elder Brother Beihan told me so. He said I should not be too worried and that these times will surely pass. Times are always turbulent whenever there is a new era. He heard that schools have reopened in some cities, so he thinks that in a few years, these times will pass.”

Gu Conghua’s eyes brightened. “Are classes really resuming?”

Gu Jinlin frowned. “I did hear some rumors, but I’m not too sure whether classes have really started, or whether all schools will be reopened. When I get back, I will immediately tell you if I hear any news.”

Gu Conghua calmed down and thought about it carefully. “If you ever have external news like that, remember to tell us. Based on my analysis, this situation cannot persist for long. If they are really reopening all the schools now, then there might be hope in a few years’ time.”

Gu Qingyao stopped talking. She bowed her head and ate her food.

Gu Yunshuang awoke in the evening and Wen Ruyu brought some chicken soup over to feed her.

Gu Yunshuang was taken aback at the sight of the chicken soup.

“Mother, where did the chicken come from?”

The soup was made from a fresh hen. It was not preserved, or the kind of wild chicken that was dried.

It was very hard to come by.

When Wen Ruyu thought of her granddaughter, a hopeful expression surfaced on her face. “Don’t ask so many questions. Just focus on getting well. Come, have some more.
