Days passed by like flowing water, and life in the village became more stable and peaceful thanks to the efforts of Gu Qianning and everyone else. Every morning, the sun shines on the scattered houses, and curls of smoke rise from the chimneys, and people begin their busy day.

Gu Qianning always gets up early. She will first check the material reserves in the space and think about how to better allocate and utilize them to help the village develop further. After that, she will go to the fields to work with her family and teach everyone new planting techniques and breeding methods.

Chu Mohan was also busy with various affairs of the village. He organized young and strong villagers to strengthen the village's fortifications to prevent the invasion of bandits and thieves; he also led everyone to repair dilapidated houses so that every villager could have a warm home. In his spare time, he would help his father sow and weed in the fields, or accompany his mother to dry grains and weave clothes.

At a harvest celebration, the villagers gathered around a bonfire, singing and laughing. Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan sat aside, quietly watching the happy crowd. The flames danced, reflecting their faces, and their eyes flickered with warm light.

"Qian Ning, I really thank you for your help during this period. If it weren't for you, I don't know what this village would have become." Chu Mohan broke the silence first, his voice gentle and sincere.

Gu Qianning smiled slightly, "Without you, I wouldn't be able to do so much on my own. It's you who has always supported and helped me."

Their eyes met, and at that moment, time seemed to stand still, the noise around them gradually faded away, leaving only the sound of each other's heartbeats and breathing. Chu Mohan's eyes revealed a hint of different emotions, and Gu Qianning's cheeks turned slightly red, and she quickly turned her head away.

After that, their contacts became more frequent. They watered the farmland together in the morning mist, discussed the future plans of the village in the afterglow of sunset, strolled by the stream together, listened to the gurgling sound of the water, and shared each other's dreams and thoughts.

One day, an old man in the village suddenly fell ill and his condition was severe. Gu Qianning hurriedly took out precious medicinal materials from the space, and boiled the medicine with Chu Mohan to take care of the old man. They stayed by the old man's bed day and night, carefully wiping his body and changing the dressings.

On the night when the old man's condition was most critical, there was a strong wind outside and the candlelight flickered inside the house. Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan held the old man's hands tightly, giving him strength and comfort.

"Brother Chu, do you think the old man will survive?" Gu Qianning's eyes revealed worry.

Chu Mohan patted her shoulder gently, "Don't worry, everything will be fine with you here."

At that moment, Gu Qianning felt the warmth and strength of Chu Mohan's palm, and a different feeling surged in her heart.

After a few days of careful care, the old man's condition finally improved. When the old man opened his eyes and saw Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan guarding the bedside, tears flashed in his eyes.

"Thanks to you, children." The old man said in a hoarse voice.

Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan smiled at each other. At that moment, they saw joy and relief in each other's eyes.

As they spent more and more time together, Chu Mohan became more and more attentive to Gu Qianning. Whenever Gu Qianning came home after a busy day, Chu Mohan would always bring her a cup of hot tea or prepare some snacks she liked.

Once, Gu Qianning accidentally fell off the ladder while repairing the house. Chu Mohan happened to pass by, and he rushed up and caught Gu Qianning.

"Are you okay?" Chu Mohan's voice was full of concern and nervousness.

Gu Qianning looked at his anxious face and felt warm in her heart, "I'm fine, thanks to you."

Since then, their relationship has become closer. When walking together on the path in the field, Chu Mohan would pick a beautiful wild flower for Gu Qianning and pin it in her hair; Gu Qianning would mend Chu Mohan's worn-out clothes and cook a delicious meal for him.

The people in the village gradually noticed the subtle feelings between them and often made some good-natured jokes.

"Chu boy, when are you going to marry our Miss Qianning?" an auntie joked with a smile.

Chu Mohan would always lower his head with a red face, while Gu Qianning would run away shyly.

However, although they both have each other in their hearts, neither of them has the courage to speak up first. On the one hand, it is because they are living in a chaotic world and the future is full of uncertainty; on the other hand, they are both worried that this relationship will bring burden to each other.

On a moonlit night, Chu Mohan asked Gu Qianning to come to the old locust tree at the entrance of the village. The breeze blew gently, and the leaves rustled.

"Qian Ning, I..." Chu Mohan hesitated and rubbed the corners of his clothes nervously with his hands.

Gu Qianning raised her head and looked into his eyes, "Brother Chu, what do you want to say?"

Chu Mohan took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to say, "Qian Ning, I like you. I've loved you since the first time I saw you. I don't know what the future will be like, but I want to be with you, take care of you, and protect you. Am I willing?"

Gu Qianning's face flushed, tears glistened in her eyes, "Brother Chu, I do."

At that moment, the moonlight sprinkled on them, as if covering them with a layer of silver yarn. They hugged each other, feeling each other's warmth and heartbeat, and their hearts were tightly pressed together at this moment.

Time flies, and several years have passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan have experienced countless ups and downs together, but they always support each other and move forward together. With their unremitting efforts, the village gradually prospers and the lives of the villagers are getting better and better.

Today's village is no longer the poor and backward mountain village it once was, but has become a place full of vitality and hope. The children in the village have better educational resources and can learn more knowledge; the adults live a self-sufficient life by planting various crops and raising livestock. At the same time, Chu Mohan also led everyone to build roads, bridges and other infrastructure to facilitate the villagers' travel.

All these changes are inseparable from the hard work of Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan. With their wisdom and sweat, they have brought vitality to this once dilapidated village. The villagers are grateful to them and regard them as heroes and benefactors of the village.

However, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan did not become complacent. On the contrary, they knew that they had a greater responsibility and had to continue to work hard to live up to everyone's expectations. Therefore, they decided to further expand the scale of the village, attract more people to settle here, and develop some characteristic industries, such as tourism.

During this process, they encountered many difficulties and challenges, but they never gave up. Whenever they encountered a problem, they would always sit down together to discuss solutions. Chu Mohan, with his intelligence, could always come up with some unique ideas to deal with various situations; while Gu Qianning, with her carefulness and patience, ensured that every detail was properly handled.

In this way, with their joint efforts, the village has become more and more beautiful, attracting more and more tourists to visit. The villagers' income has also increased, and their living standards have been significantly improved. Seeing these changes, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan feel very gratified, because they know that this is what they have always pursued-to enable everyone to live a happy and fulfilling life.

In this process, the relationship between Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan has become deeper and deeper. They are not only lovers, but also each other's closest partners and comrades-in-arms. No matter what difficulties and challenges they face, they will stand together firmly and overcome all difficulties and obstacles together. Their love is as warm as the spring sunshine, making people feel endless warmth and sweetness.

Finally, on a sunny day, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan held a grand wedding. Men, women, young and old from the whole village came to congratulate and witness the couple finally getting married. At the wedding, Gu Qianning was beautiful in a white wedding dress, while Chu Mohan was handsome in a black suit. The two walked hand in hand to the center of the stage with smiles on their faces, accepting everyone's blessings.

Amid the cheers of his relatives and friends, Chu Mohan looked at Gu Qianning affectionately, his eyes full of love. He gently held her face and said softly: "Qianning, thank you for accompanying me through all the ups and downs over the years. From now on, I am willing to spend the rest of my life with you, regardless of life, death, sickness, and death, we will never be separated!" After that, he gently kissed her lips, and the whole audience suddenly burst into warm applause and cheers.
