Chapter 191 Lu's Mother Returns to the Capital
For two days in a row, Gu Yihan slept very comfortably.
No need to get up early to make formula for the little one, or to get up early to watch him play.
Even though it was only for two days, it was still great.
"Thump, thump, thump."
Grandma Gu had just gotten up when she heard a rapid knocking on the door.
Deputy Battalion Commander Wang stood anxiously at the entrance of the courtyard, and saw Grandma Gu open the door.
He said anxiously, "Aunt Gu, my wife has a stomachache and seems to be going into labor. Could we borrow your bicycle?"
"Need a car?"
Grandma Gu was in a dilemma; her granddaughter still needed to ride her bicycle to work.
If we don't lend it, we're neighbors, and if something happens to Zhang Xia, they'll definitely blame us.
Lu Huailin was sitting on the sofa teaching Lu Chenhao pronunciation when he heard Deputy Battalion Commander Wang borrowing a car.
He quickly got up and went out of the living room: "Grandma, quickly let Deputy Battalion Commander Wang in, your sister-in-law is giving birth, it's important."
"Thank you, Commander Lu." After saying that, Deputy Battalion Commander Wang quickly walked into the courtyard, pushed his bicycle, and left.
After closing the door, Grandma Gu said to Lu Huailin in an annoyed tone, "You can tell Xiao Han yourself later."
Lu Huailin smiled and said that the bodyguard who was picking up his mother had gone to Kunming. His wife had discussed it with him, and it wouldn't be good for her not to show up.
She couldn't very well have her elders come all the way and not even get to see them, so she asked the factory for a day off.
"Grandma, don't worry, Xiaohan isn't going to the textile factory today."
Grandma Gu was stunned when she heard this: "You took leave?"
Lu Huailin smiled and nodded, "It was too late yesterday, I forgot to tell you."
Grandma Gu was relieved and muttered, "She's about to give birth, and she didn't know to go to the hospital beforehand."
The family had just finished breakfast
Xiao Wu parked his jeep at the entrance of the courtyard and called out into the yard, "Commander, the car has been delivered to you."
Gu Yihan packed two changes of clothes and diapers for the little one, then carried the child to the door.
"Honey, get in the car first. I need to tell Xiao Wu something."
Gu Yihan nodded, opened the car door, and got in.
The little guy curiously looked around the car, patted the window, and called out to Lu Huailin standing outside, "ba..."
After Lu Huailin opened the door and got into the car, he turned to Gu Yihan and instructed her, "When you see Mom later, don't take what she says to heart."
Gu Yihan glanced at Lu Huailin and nodded in agreement.
She hadn't spent much time with Lu's mother, and her initial impression of her was quite good. But when it came to Lu's older brother's family, she seemed like a completely different person.
Since we don't get along, let's not make things difficult for each other and just keep things superficial.
The jeep quickly drove to the military guesthouse.
After Gu Yihan got out of the car, she saw a strange man standing next to Lu's mother. He looked quite young.
After parking the car, Lu Huailin walked to his wife's side, took his son from her arms, and chatted with the guards behind his mother.
Gu Yihan walked up to Lu's mother and called out, "Mom, have you eaten?"
Lu's mother didn't even glance at Gu Yihan, pretending not to hear.
He said impatiently to Lu Huailin, "Stop talking so much nonsense."
Lu Huailin frowned and said with displeasure, "Mom, my wife is talking to you!"
Mrs. Lu glanced at Gu Yihan standing to the side and said irritably, "Isn't that a pointless question? What time is it? Aren't you going to eat?"
Gu Yihan was so angry she laughed; she felt completely superfluous today.
Lu's mother reached out and shouted at Lu Huailin, "Give me the money!"
The guard standing to the side was taken aback by her confident tone.
Lu Huailin glanced at his mother and said expressionlessly, "No money."
"No money?" Lu's mother screamed.
Lu Huailin frowned: "Mom, even if I had the money, I wouldn't lend it to my older brother."
"Borrow what? You're so rich, even if I gave your older brother 5,000, it wouldn't shake your family's foundation," Mother Lu roared.
Gu Yihan was stunned by Lu's mother's shameless words.
Doesn't she know what 5,000 yuan means in an era when wages are only a few dozen yuan?
Lu Huailin turned to the guard and instructed, "Brother Tang, I'm entrusting my mother to you."
The guard glanced at Lu's mother, whose face had turned pale with anger, and replied, "Don't worry, Commander Lu, I will definitely get Aunt Lu back to Beijing safely."
Lu Huailin nodded and said to his mother, "Mom, you should go back to Beijing soon, or you'll miss my brother's good news."
Lu's mother realized that Lu Huailin really had no intention of giving her money.
Enraged, she cursed, "How can you be so selfish? We've given you all the family's resources, why can't you help your brother through this difficult time?"
Even the guards couldn't stand it anymore and went to Lu's mother to interrupt her: "Madam Lu, the commander asked me to tell you that he will handle Comrade Lu Huaixu's matter."
Hearing the guard's words, Lu's mother looked up at him and asked, "Really?"
The guard nodded.
Even though Lu's father resolved Lu's eldest son's issue, Lu's mother still felt that her youngest son's attitude was too cold and heartless.
She glared at Gu Yihan.
He scoffed, "What? You have money to support unimportant people, but no money when your own mother needs it?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yihan frowned and said coldly, "Who is an unimportant person?"
When Lu's mother saw that Gu Yihan dared to contradict her, she sneered, "Isn't Grandma Gu an outsider? Isn't she supported by my son...?"
Lu Huailin, holding the child, walked to his mother's side and whispered sharply, "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Gu Yihan shoved Lu Huailin away as he spoke and stared intently at Lu's mother.
She said sarcastically, "What? My grandmother was looking after your Lu family's grandson and she made a mistake?"
A mocking glint flashed in Lu's mother's eyes as she glanced at Gu Yihan and said sternly, "If you can give birth, you can raise a child. If you can't raise a child, then don't give birth!"
"Did I force you to have this? And you're even helping the Lu family take care of the child! Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Lu Huailin was about to speak when Gu Yihan glared at him, and he dared not utter a sound.
“Aunt Lu, since you say so, it makes things easier. You didn’t raise me, you didn’t take care of me during my postpartum period, and you don’t even acknowledge the child I gave birth to!”
"From now on, nothing you do will have anything to do with me, and I will not take care of you in your old age."
When Lu's mother heard that Gu Yihan was so ill-mannered, not only calling her "auntie" but also being so blatantly unfilial, she was shocked.
Enraged, he raised his hand to slap her.
Gu Yihan swiftly grabbed Lu's mother's wrist, looking at her coldly: "What? You can't win an argument, so you resort to violence? Who gave you that right?"
After saying that, he forcefully shook off Lu's mother's wrist.
Lu's mother stumbled after being pushed by Gu Yihan. Seeing her youngest son standing by and watching her being bullied, completely indifferent, she was extremely disappointed.
Sure enough, only those who have been by her side for a long time will care about her and be concerned about her. The eldest son will not be as cold-blooded as the youngest son.
"Fine, since you treat me this way, I'd like to see how far you two can go."
After saying that, he turned to Lu Huailin and said fiercely, "If I had known you would grow up to be like this, I would have strangled you when you were born."
After saying that, he scolded the stunned guard beside him, "Why aren't you moving? Do you want someone else to take you to the train station?"
After saying that, he walked out of the guesthouse without looking back.
