Chapter 260 Grandma Gu Leaves
When Grandma Gu saw Gu Yihan and Lu Huailin return, she craned her neck to look behind them, but didn't see Hao Hao.
He immediately stood up and asked anxiously, "Where's Hao Hao?"
"Haohao is at daycare," Gu Yihan replied casually to Grandma Gu as she walked.
After closing the courtyard gate, Lu Huailin walked to his wife's side.
Smiling, he explained to Grandma Gu, "Grandma, my wife is about to go back to work, so today we're letting Hao Hao get used to the environment at the daycare."
Gu Yihan stood next to Grandma Gu, glanced at the package next to the stool, pursed her lips, and a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Gu turned her head to look at her silent granddaughter, and wanted to ask what to do if Hao Hao was not adapting well to the daycare.
Then she realized that even if Hao Hao didn't adapt well, she wouldn't have time to take care of him.
A bitter feeling spread through my heart.
Grandma Gu turned around, holding her granddaughter's hand tightly with one hand and stroking her soft hair with the other.
The older generation says that children with soft hair also have soft hearts.
That's absolutely right; her little granddaughter is a kind-hearted child.
The thought that if Gu Yihan were arrested because of her own problems made her feel that she would not be able to rest in peace even after she died was unbearable.
Grandma Gu's lips trembled slightly, her eyes reddened, and she whispered worriedly to her granddaughter, "Xiao Han, after Grandma is gone, take good care of yourself."
"Discuss things with Xiao Lu more often in your life. Don't make all the decisions on your own. You two should live a good life together."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yihan could only give a soft "hmm".
She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, her nose would sting and tears would fall uncontrollably.
Seeing her granddaughter nod, Grandma Gu assumed she had listened and turned to Lu Huailin, instructing, "Lu, Grandma is entrusting Xiaohan to you."
"You mustn't bully her."
Upon hearing this, Lu Huailin smiled, turned his head, and looked at his wife, who was keeping her head down and not speaking, with a smile in his eyes, and said, "Grandma, don't worry."
"Xiao Han is my wife, I cherish her so much, how could I possibly bully her?"
Grandma Gu nodded, bent down to pick up the package next to the stool, and muttered to herself, "Now I can go to Gu Meng's house with peace of mind."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her granddaughter's eyes instantly fill with tears.
She could only suppress her sadness and say, "If Hao Hao misses me, Xiao Han, you can take him to Gu Meng's house to see his grandma."
Without waiting for her granddaughter's reply, she picked up her package and tried to leave, not intending to let her granddaughter see her off.
Gu Yihan quickly grabbed Grandma Gu's arm and whispered, "Grandma, let Huailin take you there."
Grandma Gu walked to Gu Meng's house by herself because she was worried about her.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Gu glanced at Huai Lin, who was standing beside her granddaughter.
He quickly shook his head and waved his hand in refusal, saying, "No need, he still has to go to the army! We can't waste his time."
Lu Huailin glanced at his wife and nodded to her.
Smiling, she walked over to Grandma Gu and said, "Grandma, don't worry, I'm off today, I have plenty of time to take you."
After saying that, he reached out to take Grandma Gu's package.
Seeing this, Grandma Gu quickly hid the package behind her back.
Looking up at Lu Huailin, he said in a low voice, "Xiao Han must be feeling unwell. Why don't you stay home and keep her company..."
"Grandma, if you don't want Huailin to take you, your granddaughter will take you on her bicycle."
Gu Yihan interrupted the wet nurse, speaking coldly.
Before Grandma Gu could react, he grabbed her arm, walked her to the bicycle, took her package, and stuffed it into the front basket.
The movements were fluid and seamless, executed in one go.
By the time Grandma Gu came to her senses, her granddaughter had already started turning around with her bicycle.
He immediately reached out and grabbed her arm, whispering, "Let Xiao Lu deliver the milk."
She didn't want her granddaughter to meet Gu Meng, lest the two of them argue again because of her.
Upon hearing Grandma Gu's words, Lu Huailin strode over to his wife and took the bicycle from her.
He looked up at her and smiled, "Honey, don't worry, I promise to deliver the milk safely."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yihan nodded, not wanting to look at Gu Meng's smug and arrogant face.
She could imagine how happy the other person would be when they saw Grandma Gu.
At the entrance of the courtyard,
As Gu Yihan watched her grandmother's departing figure, she couldn't hold back her tears, which fell down her cheeks.
"Crunch."
Su Nian carried Zhou Ni out and paused for a moment when she saw Gu Yihan's slightly red eyes.
Pretending not to see, she smiled and asked, "Xiao Han, I remember you have some baby formula. Could you give me a can instead?"
Upon hearing Su Nian's voice, Gu Yihan composed herself and managed a weak, slight smile: "Okay."
Seeing that Gu Yihan had agreed, Su Nian smiled and followed her into the courtyard. As soon as she sat down, Zhou Ni, who was in her arms, burst into tears.
Gu Yihan walked over to Su Nian with a can of milk powder and saw Zhou Ni crying loudly with her mouth open.
She frowned slightly: "Sister Su, is Ni feeling unwell?"
Su Nian patted her daughter's back, glanced at Gu Yihan, and said shyly, "She's hungry."
Are you hungry?
Gu Yihan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then looked at Su Nian in disbelief and asked, "You didn't feed her?"
"We ran out of formula at home yesterday."
"This morning I asked Zhang Xia to watch the child for a while so I could go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy milk powder. Who knew they didn't have any in stock?"
Gu Yihan was speechless.
Milk powder is a scarce commodity; even with a ration coupon, it's impossible to buy. How could the supply and marketing cooperative possibly have any in stock?
She turned and went to the bedroom, found Hao Hao's unused baby bottle, unscrewed it, put in two scoops of formula, and added water.
She shook the baby bottle as she walked toward the living room.
"Here you go, the baby bottle was mailed by Hao Hao's grandpa, it's never been used."
Gu Yihan handed the baby bottle that Jiang Chong had prepared to Su Nian while explaining the situation.
Su Nian smiled slightly at Gu Yihan, took the bottle, and before she could even shake it a couple of times to test the temperature, she was already taking it.
Zhou Ni, who was crying incessantly while holding Huailin, immediately stopped crying upon seeing the baby bottle.
Two chubby little hands tightly hugged the bottle, and the baby anxiously opened its mouth to suck on the nipple.
"Gulp, gulp."
Zhou Ni drank her milk so quickly and forcefully that she didn't even have time to catch her breath.
Su Nian looked at her daughter drinking milk with a pained expression.
"Xiaohan, where did you buy your baby formula?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yihan looked up at Su Nian and saw that Su Nian was staring intently at her.
She sighed and said, "Sister Su, the milk powder for our family is all sent from Beijing by Hao Hao's grandfather."
"It wasn't bought in Kunming."
Hao Hao started eating solid foods early, so we don't use up much formula at home.
Upon hearing this, Sister Su's face fell, and she said listlessly, "What are we going to do if we can't buy milk powder!"
Gu Yihan glanced at Zhou Ni, who had already finished her milk powder.
She smacked her lips, clearly not full.
"Sister Su, an 11-month-old baby can start eating complementary foods."
