Chapter 298 Child, can I... hug you?

Gu Fuju's face showed no emotion, his eyes were heavy, but his heart ached.

It was not a dilemma, but the indifference in Yu Tingwan's eyes. This child does not have hope in her biological parents, and does not think they will choose her.

Eighteen years have passed, which is indeed too long.

He and Jiashan have been absent from this child for eighteen years.

He has not seen the girl babbling and toddling.

He has not held her hand and taught her how to write with a brush. He has not

taken a detour to buy her a bag of her favorite snacks on the way back from the morning court.

Jiashan was pregnant for nine months and felt pain for her once during childbirth. Now she is a beautiful young lady, but he has not done anything for her.

Gu Fuju's hand fell weakly.

There was a hurried sound of footsteps behind him.

"Child."

Jiashan had learned from Gu Fuju how much this child had suffered. He also knew what she had experienced.

But the more he knew, the more distressed he felt.

He wanted to listen, but he dared not listen again.

When the pregnancy was first diagnosed, who wouldn't say that this child would be reincarnated?

She chose herself and Gu Fuju as her parents, but it didn't go smoothly, but she has been stumbling up to now.

Jiashan, who was still speaking ill of others not long ago, opened and closed his mouth. It was obvious that he had a lot to say, but he said it cautiously for fear of being rejected.

"Can I... hug you?"

Yu Tingwan frowned and looked at Jiashan.

It was a little awkward.

Her face was awkward.

But at this time, she was more absent-minded.

Yu Tingwan remembered that her mother would always take her out for a walk in the evening.

Aunt He from next door would always tease her when she saw it.

["Oh, mother and daughter are out to digest food again."]

Aunt He would persuade.

["Yu Niang, Yao girl is not little anymore, why is there no movement in your belly?"]

Maybe Yu Niang would care about this when Yu Jingcheng didn't come back with the soft and small swaddling clothes.

Yu Niang will always remember that day when it was dark outside, the night watchmen were beating outside, and only one lamp was on in the house.

Yu Jingcheng, who was supposed to be out escorting, came back. His arms were bulging, and he walked unnaturally, as if he was afraid of dropping something. He walked to the bed and woke her up, his eyes brighter than the stars outside.

The man who usually had a loud voice spoke softly, as if he was afraid of startling something.

He said excitedly.

["Yu Niang, we have a child."]

She was still confused, and Yu Jingcheng put the baby who had been coaxed to sleep in his arms into her arms.

Yu Niang lowered her head.

It's not like she hasn't seen newborn babies before, and it's obvious that this baby is much smaller.

It looks like a premature baby.

The face is dirty, and there are obvious traces of tears.

He can't open his eyes yet, but he was still awakened. His voice is like a cat's meow, very weak, and even hoarse.

Yu Niang didn't react before she sobbed and held her hand.

Not very strong.

But it was like a feather scratching her heart.

When Aunt He mentioned it, she smiled softly.

[“I am content with having Yaoyao. Her father and I will protect her for the rest of our lives.”]

Aunt He knew that the couple loved their daughter like the apple of their eye, so she didn’t mention it again. In the end, she sighed again and again.

[“Look at her eyebrows and eyes, they are all beautiful.”]

[“Yu Niang, this child is very much like you except that she has a stronger temper and is more delicate. You are too soft and easy to talk to.”]

Yaoyao is always very proud.

She is A Niang’s child, so naturally she looks like A Niang.

But times have changed. Yu Tingwan looked at the strange woman in front of her.

She felt inexplicably sad.

This emotion seemed to shatter and drown her composure.

It turned out that her personality was not like her mother's, and her appearance was not like hers.

It was obviously her mother who brought her up, and she taught her how to behave and distinguish right from wrong. The woman who always smiled gently at her every time she did something wrong, how could God arrange a mother-daughter relationship, really not look like her at all?

She softly refused: "No."

No matter what happened in the past, the tragedy of the Gu family couple was not caused by her.

Jiashan's face was painful.

Ning Yunling came leisurely at this time.

His not very smart mind could not see the weirdness of the atmosphere at the moment. Looking at Jiashan who was still looking at his sister-in-law eagerly after being rejected and trying to speak to her softly.

"Mrs. Gu."

Ning Yunling guessed with his own intelligence: "You see that my sister-in-law looks like you, and you feel that you have a good impression of her, so you want to adopt her as your adopted daughter?"

No wonder he said that, everyone present thought so.

The two of them looked quite similar, and now standing together, the visual impact was even more obvious.

Ning Yunling took a serious look and said, "You know what, my sister-in-law looks more like your biological daughter than Gu Wu."

"If it weren't for the fact that you gave birth to her once, I would have thought that my sister-in-law was accidentally left outside."

As soon as the voice fell, Wei Zhao laughed.

Ning Suchan, who was sitting upright, looked at the resistant Yu Tingwan, then looked at the Gu family couple, thinking about Wei Zhao's abnormality. Suddenly, an absurd thought flashed through her heart.

She slowly put down the teacup in her hand.

She could see the abnormality, but others couldn't.

Lady Ningguohou walked over to her and sat down.

"Yu is lucky to have caught the eye of the Gu family."

"Don't say that Madam Gu has moved her mind. If there is a girl who looks like me, I will also adopt her as my adopted daughter."

What's more, with such a relationship, the relationship between the Taifu Mansion and the Shunguogong Mansion has become more solid, which is beneficial to both sides.

"The Gu family has few descendants, only a daughter. No one would say anything even if they adopted a son, let alone an adopted daughter."

Lady Ningguohou sighed, "Don't mention it, Yu's biological mother is quite good at giving birth."

Ning Suchan: ...

Whether Gu Wu and Jiashan are biological mother and daughter remains to be investigated, but Ning Yunling must be born in the Ningguohou Mansion.

Madam Zhou was so angry that her mouth was about to be crooked.

Why?

Why didn't Madam Taifu recognize her Zhou Yurou as her adopted daughter!

Zhou Yurou was also unconvinced, and the handkerchief in her hand was about to be torn to pieces by her.

Ning Yunling felt a chill on his back, and his voice was low.

He asked tremblingly, "Brother, did I say something wrong?" Wei Zhao replied faintly, "No."

Well said.

That's good!

Ning Yunling stood up immediately.

He continued to chatter.

"But my sister-in-law probably won't agree."

He turned his head to look at Yu Tingwan.

"Right, sister-in-law?"

"Who wants to have two more elders above them? They are not related to me, it's really troublesome. I have to respect two more people."

"The Gu family has a lot of rules."

Ning Yunling was still frightened: "Even the maids in the mansion can all read."

Even though Gu Fu Ju was famous for his strictness, Jia Shan was about to cry.

But...

he was afraid! Wei Zhao.

Ning Yunling: "It's not that the junior is unruly, it's really that you are too strict, you are strict with the students, and you treat Gu Wu equally. Madam, you have always been difficult to talk to before."

"Then Madam Zhou had a loud voice on the street before, and my sister-in-law said she was scared. What about you?"

Shen Zhiyi spit out a mouthful of water.

Does this fool really think that Yu Tingwan is a weak woman!

"If my sister-in-law agrees, she will be under a lot of pressure in the future."

Ning Yunling felt that she was right, especially when she saw Gu Wu who was supporting the empress dowager not far away. She had a loud voice and raised her hand and said, "You have daughters, so why are you here? Why do you want someone else's?"
