Volume 1 Chapter 471 Entertaining Guests

Gu Tong nodded with red eyes, hugged Grandma Gu, and couldn't help crying.

She knew that her illness was not a minor one, as her hair was falling out in clumps, and the last time she fainted it was not due to fatigue but stomachache.

But she couldn't show her panic in front of her parents, for fear that her parents would worry about her.

The mother and daughter stayed in the room for a long time and came out only when it was time for dinner. Both of them had red eyes.

Grandpa Gu frowned when he saw this, but the visitors didn't have the courage to ask what happened.

In order to prevent Gu Tong from having any concerns, the Gu family's status and connections are there, so even if there are any problems, there will be ways to solve them.

Second sister Gu and her family also came back, holding a lot of things in their hands. These were all sent to her by Second sister Gu's mother-in-law.

Many of them were prey and mushrooms collected with the help of relatives in the countryside, all of which were carefully selected by Gu Erjie's mother-in-law.

After all, with her family background, Second Sister Gu would be loved in any of her husband's families, not to mention that Second Sister Gu has a cheerful personality.

Even if there were any sisters-in-law who were not on good terms with each other, they would not dare to act rashly in front of Second Sister Gu, who would beat them directly if she was unhappy.

Her mother-in-law even handed her a stick. After all, when her mother-in-law was young, she was also a good fighter.

"Aunt, I haven't seen you for a long time."

When Second Sister Gu saw Gu Tong coming back, she happily took her aside to chat about family matters. Gu Tong was also happy to see her little niece.

"Good boy, isn't your aunt coming back to see you?"

"Please don't take me, your aunt, to the army to experience your skydiving. I'm scared just looking at you."

What Gu Tong feared the most was his little niece. He remembered that when she first joined the army, she jumped off a plane right in front of him.

She almost fainted on the spot, and she thought something had happened to her niece.

"What are you talking about, aunt? How dare I scare you?"

Second sister Gu (Gu Tingting) waved her hands, ever since she had frightened her aunt once.

My family members hung me up and beat me up, and I never dared to do that again.

"You still have the nerve to say no. I remember when you first joined the army."

"You insisted on showing your aunt your new skills. Like a shooting star, you flashed in front of her."

"Your aunt had never seen these things before, and these were her own relatives. She was so scared that she had nightmares for several days."

Mother Gu ruthlessly exposed her daughter's secrets, and Second Sister Gu looked at her mother in anger and shame.

"That was many years ago."

"Mom, why are you still talking about it?"

"I'm your mother, why can't I tell you?"

When Gu's mother refuted her, Second Sister Gu didn't dare to resist at all. Her mother was the queen dowager in the family, and whatever she said was the final word.

Yi Yi looked at Second Sister Gu, thinking about what talents he could show his aunt so that she would be scared and have nightmares.

"Aunt~"

Yi Yi looked at Second Sister Gu (Gu Tingting), and Gu Tingting turned her head to look at her.

"What's wrong?"

Yi Yi jumped off the stool and did a split on the ground in front of Second Sister Gu. Second Sister Gu's eyes popped out when she saw it.

This...how come it is so soft?

I can do splits just like that. I exercise regularly, but I can't even do splits.

"Are you tired?"

Looking at everyone one by one, Sheng Wanyan held her forehead with her hand, not wanting to admit that this was her daughter.

But the elders in the family were very supportive. They applauded her and praised her for her great performance.

Children are naturally flexible and they often like to stretch their calves wide, which makes them even more flexible.

“Awesome!”

"My sister is amazing."

"Brother, come one."

Ning Junlin’s eldest son (Ning Dongliang) pushed his three-year-old brother (Ning Donghua), and little Ning Donghua shook his head frantically.

He can't do it, he can't do it, don't make it difficult for him.

"You are half a year older than your sister, how can you be so useless."

"You are eight years old, why don't you come?"

Ning Dongliang stared at him, and little Ning Donghua lowered his head silently, not daring to speak.

My brother hits people with great strength and it hurts so much. I don’t want to be beaten.

After dinner, Gu Tong's family had to go back to rest early. Before leaving, the children must have received a lot of red envelopes.

Sheng Wanyan also gave titles to several grandchildren in Gu Tong's family, even the two grandchildren who were not present had a share.

Sheng Wanyan gave two more gifts to the two children of Second Sister Gu. Although they had been given them during the reunion dinner, today was the second day of the New Year, so she had to show some appreciation.

Naturally, Second Sister Gu’s family also had to contribute another portion, just for fun and excitement.

Gu Tong's family moved into the small courtyard prepared by Gu's mother. That night, Grandma Gu told Gu's father and grandfather about Gu Tong's situation.

Grandpa Gu looked a little nervous when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he arranged to go to the hospital tomorrow.

"Let's go to the military hospital for a checkup tomorrow. We'll get treatment if necessary and spend money if necessary."

"Don't delay. It's not good to delay any longer."

"Mom, I'll go with my little sister tomorrow, so don't rush around."

Tomorrow is the third day of the Chinese New Year. In the next few days, many of Grandpa Gu and Father Gu’s subordinates will come to visit our home, so one of Grandma Gu and Mother Gu must stay behind to take charge of the situation.

Mrs. Gu's body cannot be overworked, and as a 34-year-old pregnant woman, nothing can happen to her.

"No, I have to go myself."

Grandma Gu has made up her mind. Her daughter is sick, so how can she not go and check on her?

Mother Gu had no choice but to bring Grandma Gu along, and Sheng Wanyan had to be the one to entertain the guests at home.

"Yan'er, I'll leave the house to you for the next two days."

Mother Gu took Sheng Wanyan's hand and instructed her, and Sheng Wanyan nodded.

"Mom, don't worry."

"I'll leave it to you. I'm at ease."

Mother Gu knew that her third daughter-in-law was suitable to be the mistress of the house and was very good at dealing with human relationships.

It's just that she is a little more casual than the eldest daughter-in-law and doesn't like being restricted, so she always lives like this.

The next day, Grandma Gu and Mother Gu went out after breakfast. Gu Tingxiao was afraid that his wife would be too busy to take care of the children at home.

Just after breakfast, many of Grandpa Gu and Father Gu’s subordinates and old friends came to visit.

Mrs. Gu was able to entertain a few people at first, but she was obviously unable to cope with it later.

"Sister-in-law, go and have a rest."

"I can do it."

Sheng Wanyan took the tea set from her hand and asked her to go back to her room and have a good rest.

Mrs. Gu nodded. She was sleepy and her waist was sore, so it was really not suitable for her to stay on the first floor any longer.

"Third sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work."

"Thank you, sister-in-law. We are all daughters-in-law of the Gu family. It's no trouble at all."

When Mrs. Gu heard her words, she felt much better and no longer felt so guilty about not being able to help.

"Xiao Fang, help your mother up to rest."

"Aunt San, here I come."

Gu Jinfang quickly ran over and helped Mrs. Gu upstairs. Sheng Wanyan took the tea set to the living room and made tea for the bosses.

"Old Gu, is this your third grandson's wife?"
