Jiang Yunshu had just kicked out her fiancé who was cheating on her when her long-deceased grandparents appeared in her dream. Before leaving, they even gave her a mustard seed space obtained from...
At the dinner table.
While the whole family was together, Grandma Gu told her daughter-in-law what she and her daughter-in-law had planned a few days ago.
"Shushu's belly is getting bigger every day, and she's about to give birth. I'm thinking of moving back to the old house, which is closer to the hospital. If Shushu goes into labor prematurely, we can rush her to the hospital in time."
There was one thing that Grandma Gu didn't mention. Ever since the Hao Chunhong incident broke out, everyone in the hospital's attention was focused on Shen Yunshu's belly.
Grandma Gu was worried that other people would gossip about her in private and say some nonsense that would be heard by Shen Yunshu. She had endured for such a long time and was about to give birth, so there must not be any accidents.
Mother Shen agreed without any hesitation: "The yard is full of smoke and miasma, it's better to move back to the old house, at least it's quiet."
Then she turned her head again, looking at Shen Yunshu with guilt in her eyes: "Shushu, Mom has to be busy rehearsing the show recently and can't go back with you, but don't worry, I will finish the work at hand as soon as possible and rush back to take care of you."
She must be present when her daughter gives birth and during her confinement period.
"I don't need so many people to take care of me. With my grandma and grandpa here, you can just focus on your own things."
The whole family did nothing but revolve around her, and Shen Yunshu felt very guilty.
Seeing their daughter so considerate and sensible, Shen's father and mother felt even more guilty. They secretly swore in their hearts that they must do their best to make up for their daughter in the future.
Gu's mother called the Gu family's old house in advance. Knowing that their daughter-in-law was coming back, the Gu father and son were extremely happy.
Gu's father asked his boss for an afternoon off, cleaned the house inside and out, and took the quilts and mattresses to the yard to turn them over and dry them in the sun.
Grandpa Gu was not idle either. He asked someone to bring home a few crucian carps and kept them in a water tank. He planned to stew crucian carp and tofu soup for his grandson's wife tomorrow to nourish her body.
When he thought of the six babies in his granddaughter-in-law's belly, he was so excited that he was full of energy.
He will retire in another month, and in his free time he can help take care of a few kids. When the kids grow up, they will surround him and call him "Grandpa". Grandpa Gu will be so happy.
The family compound was busy packing things to take away. Shen Yunshu was inconvenient with her big belly, so Shen's mother and Gu's mother helped her pack.
In fact, there was nothing much to pack, just a few sets of outer clothes and some underwear, plus a pile of bottles and jars on the table, and it was impossible to tell what was inside.
When Mrs. Gu was packing things, she didn't hold it properly and one of the small bottles rolled under the bed. She subconsciously bent down to pick it up.
When she got the bottle, she accidentally caught a glimpse of a notebook that fell under the bed, and she kindly helped pick it up.
"Shushu, you dropped something..." Mother Gu straightened up and looked clearly at what was in her hand. She was suddenly speechless.
Even though she was used to many ups and downs, she couldn't help but blush at this moment.
Seeing her mother-in-law suddenly become hesitant, Shen Yunshu subconsciously followed her gaze. Now, she was no longer calm.
With her face as red as a monkey's butt, she immediately denied it: "It must have been hidden by Gu Jiuyan. It has nothing to do with me."
After she finished speaking, she regretted it and wanted to slap herself. How could pregnancy make her brain stupid?
She and Gu Jiuyan were husband and wife, so this story was naturally related to her. The more she explained, the more obvious it seemed.
At this time, Shen Yunshu was too embarrassed to even look at her own mother and mother-in-law's faces. Her reputation of being an innocent person was ruined by Gu Jiuyan.
Where did he get it from? Or when did he hide it under the bed? Shen Yunshu had no idea.
Far away on Qiongzhou Island, Gu Jiuyan was chewing on a hard biscuit and drinking coconut wine freshly picked from a tree. Suddenly, he sneezed violently.
Jiang Chen, who was also drinking from a coconut beside him, teased, "Old Gu, your sister-in-law misses you."
"I miss my wife, too."
Gu Jiuyan took out the photo he carried with him, looked at the face of the person he had been thinking about day and night, and the longing in his heart instantly spread.
During the time he was away, I wonder if the babies in her belly have bothered her again?
Jiang Chen's cheerful face immediately turned depressed, and he muttered:
"I also miss my wife and my three naughty children. I don't know if we can return alive this time."
This mission was far more difficult than they had imagined. After being here for so many days, they hadn't found any clues at all.
The longer it goes, the worse it gets for them and the more dangerous their situation becomes.
Gu Jiuyan said in a resounding voice: "I promised my wife that I would rush back before she gave birth."
His wife is so delicate, she must be terrified on the day of delivery, so he has to rush back to be by her side and cheer her up.
The important thing is that he cannot die as he is about to become his father.
Jiang Chen, stimulated by Gu Jiuyan, felt like he had been injected with chicken blood: "I can't die, I have to go back alive, and my child can never call another man dad."
If that really comes to the point, he might be so angry that he would jump out of his coffin.
The scene changes and returns to the Gu family.
Knowing that her daughter-in-law was thin-skinned, Mother Gu didn't dare to say anything more. She quickly stuffed the things in her hand into Shen Yunshu's hand, and then hurriedly fled this embarrassing place with Shen's mother.
Shen Yunshu's face was so red that blood could drip out. The moment she made sure the door was locked, she couldn't resist her curiosity and opened the hot potato.
After reading the contents of the storybook, Shen Yunshu suddenly woke up as if a basin of cold water was poured on her head. The more she turned the pages of the book, the more angry she became and gritted her teeth.
Gu Jiuyan learned all his stuff from storybooks.
No, there must be more than one of these storybooks. Shen Yunshu, with a big belly, rummaged around the room and finally found two similar storybooks among the clothes that Gu Jiuyan hung in the closet.
Gu Jiuyan was holding this thing in his hands and studying it seriously. The picture seemed weird no matter how he thought about it.
Shen Yunshu suddenly laughed out loud, and then there was endless silence.
As long as he can come back safely, she will not pursue the matter of the storybook.
At night, Shen Yunshu had another nightmare. The scene of Gu Jiuyan being eaten to death by a wild boar was so real that she woke up in shock.
Sweating profusely, she lit the talisman and summoned Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang from the underworld office.
Looking at their granddaughter’s pale face, Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang felt very distressed.
Grandma Jiang quickly came to Shen Yunshu and asked anxiously, "Shushu, are the babies in your belly bothering you again?"
Shen Yunshu shook his head: "No, I had a dream, the same dream as last time, I dreamed that Gu Jiuyan was in trouble."
