Volume 1 Chapter 221 Arrival in Kyoto

Sheng Wanyan nodded when she heard it, and talked to Hu Zi with a smile on her face.

"Huzi, I hope you grow up safely and healthily, and have a smooth life."

Pan Yue heard this and laughed happily: "Hu Zi should thank aunt for her blessing. I will definitely do it in the future."

Sheng Wanyan played with Hu Zi for a while and was very happy to see that the child was sleeping soundly.

With the presence of Huzi, the Sheng family is bustling every day. Grandpa Sheng and Father Sheng can't wait to hold him in their arms every day.

Grandma Sheng and Mother Sheng took care of Pan Yue during her confinement and helped her to recuperate every day.

As the saying goes, the first ten years depend on the mother-in-law, and the last ten years depend on the daughter-in-law. Sheng's mother understands this truth.

After Pan Yue gave birth, Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao packed up and returned to Kyoto to celebrate the New Year. Gu Tingxiao sent a telegram back to Kyoto and told them the news that Sheng Wanyan was pregnant.

When Gu's mother found out, she was overjoyed. Knowing that they were coming back to celebrate the New Year, she quickly cleaned up their wedding room.

The things for the wedding room were brought to the army a long time ago, so the current furniture was what Gu Tingxiao used before he got married.

Gu Tingxiao took good care of it, and apart from being a little old, there was no other problem.

When Gu's parents found out that she was pregnant, they immediately went to buy some food suitable for pregnant women and brought it home. Even Grandma Gu couldn't sit still.

I often go to overseas Chinese stores these days and bring back some supplements from time to time.

A week later, Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao arrived in Kyoto safely. As soon as they went out, they saw Grandpa Gu's guards coming to pick them up.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Gu have to go to work, so only Grandpa and Grandma Gu are at home, and the children in the family are not on vacation at school yet.

She and Gu Tingxiao came back early. There was still half a month before the Chinese New Year and the school holiday lasted for another week.

So there were not many people at home. Brother Gu and Sister-in-law Gu also had to go to work. With Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao coming back, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu were so happy.

When Grandpa Sheng's guard saw them, he waved and ran over to help them get their things.

"Uncle Hu, thank you for your help."

Uncle Hu is Grandpa Gu’s bodyguard. He has been with Grandpa Gu for 20 years and is now 45 years old.

"Why are you being so polite to me? The old general knew that you and the Third Young Master's wife were back, and he was so happy that he couldn't sleep the whole night."

"You made me wait so early in the morning."

Even though Uncle Hu is just a guard and does not hold a high position, he has been with Mr. Gu for so many years and has long been Mr. Gu's confidant.

Even though he is a guard, others have to show some respect to him when they see him.

"Come on, the car is over here."

Gu Tingxiao and Uncle Hu put the things in the car, and Sheng Wanyan waited on the side with nothing in her hands.

Gu Tingxiao helped Sheng Wanyan get into the car. After Uncle Hu saw that they were seated firmly, he started the car and drove back to the compound.

Sheng Wanyan looked at the scenery outside the car window. The temperature in Kyoto was about the same as that in Chengdu, equally cold.

On the way back to the compound, they passed Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. Sheng Wanyan felt itchy when she saw the courtyard houses nearby.

When it is opened, I must buy a few sets for myself and save them for future appreciation.

We arrived at the military compound more than half an hour later, and the guard at the front door conducted routine checks as usual.

After checking that there is nothing illegal, they will be released.

The car drove into the military compound and stopped at the door of the house.

When Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu heard the sound of a car, they hurried out to the door to check if he and the others had arrived.

As expected, as soon as she saw her and Gu Tingxiao, Grandma Gu hurried forward and held their hands.

"Finally I'm back. It was such a hard journey."

"Grandpa, grandma."

Sheng Wanyan greeted Gu Tingxiao, Grandpa Gu standing behind nodded, and Grandma Gu quickly pulled them in.

"You came back here even though you're pregnant. Don't be so reckless next time."

Grandma Gu held Sheng Wanyan's hand, and seeing that her face was rosy and everything seemed to be fine, she felt relieved.

"Grandma, I'm not tired. Ting Xiao takes good care of me."

Sheng Wanyan defended Gu Tingxiao, and Grandma Gu was so happy to hear that.

The young couple has a good relationship and they can discuss things with each other in the army, so they can live a good life.

"Just you protect him."

"Come and have a cup of hot water to warm yourself up."

Grandma Gu's eyes narrowed with laughter, and she quickly asked the nanny to bring out two cups of hot water.

"Thank you, grandma."

Sheng Wanyan was indeed a little cold, so she quickly drank a few sips of hot water before her body warmed up.

"Your parents and brother and sister-in-law are all at work, you should eat something and rest first."

"Let's have a good chat together as a family tonight."

Sheng Wanyan looked good, but Gu Tingxiao's complexion was not so good, and he even had stubble growing out.

The dark circles under his eyes clearly showed that he hadn't had a good rest for several days.

"I cooked two bowls of noodles for you, fill your stomachs quickly."

Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao went to the dining table and finished all the noodles under the watchful eyes of Grandma Gu.

"Grandpa, grandma, let's go and rest first."

Gu Tingxiao took the things back to the room, and Grandma Gu nodded quickly, telling the young couple to have a good rest first.

Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao returned to the room. The room was cleaned very nicely and the bedding smelled like soap.

"Wife, go take a shower first, I'll pack up."

Gu Tingxiao found her pajamas. Sheng Wanyan hadn't taken a shower for a whole week on the train.

Apart from changing my inner layer when going to the toilet, luckily it is winter now and there is no sweat smell on my body.

Otherwise you will become a stinky person.

"Don't clean up yet. Wait until you've rested enough before you do it."

Sheng Wanyan felt sorry for him. She was fine as she just ate and slept, but Gu Tingxiao not only had to take care of her, but also had to watch over the luggage in the middle of the night.

She has been sleeping very deeply since she became pregnant, and she may not be able to hear any movement outside.

Seeing that she cared about him, Gu Tingxiao felt sweeter than eating candy.

"Okay, I'll listen to my wife."

Sheng Wanyan glared at him. This guy really had some free time and was just teasing herself here.

"Shut up."

"Okay, wife."

Sheng Wanyan really didn’t know what to say. This person really would shine if given a little sunshine.

Sheng Wanyan picked up her pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower. She washed her face and brushed her teeth. Then she returned to her room to rest.

Gu Tingxiao saw that she had finished washing and came out, so he helped her dry her hair. While he was drying her hair, Sheng Wanyan fell asleep.

After seeing this, Gu Tingxiao covered her with a quilt and then went to take a shower.

When I woke up, it was time for dinner and everyone in my family had rushed back from get off work.

Gu Tingxiao woke up first. Seeing that she was still sleeping soundly, he didn't call her and let her continue to rest.

He sorted out his things and put the gifts for his family aside, waiting for his wife to distribute them when the time came.

Gu Tingxiao changed his clothes and went downstairs. His family was waiting in the living room.
