Chapter 155 Liking Girls
Early the next morning
I don't know if it's just psychological, but foot baths and massages help pregnant women sleep. When I opened my eyes, it was already dawn.
She got up humming a cheerful tune, washed up, and then sat at the dining table to drink her porridge.
Grandma Gu looked at her granddaughter, who was in a good mood all morning, and asked in confusion, "Did you find money all night?"
Gu Yihan put the peeled eggs into a bowl and smiled at Grandma Gu, saying, "Grandma, I'm happier than if I found money."
How could I not be happy? Money is the source of happiness, not counting the odds and ends at home.
Before the marriage, Lu Huailin gave me two bankbooks with a total of 19,000 yuan in them, and yesterday Lu's father gave me another 10,000 yuan.
Even without considering the two thousand yuan in the box given to her by her mother, she is now a small-time rich woman.
Grandma Gu didn't ask why she was happy. She put the boiled milk in front of her granddaughter and said, "Xiao Lu ordered the milk. He said everyone will have a cup every morning from now on."
Gu Yihan happily called out sweetly to Grandma Gu, "Thank you, Grandma."
Grandma Gu rambled on, "Xiao Lu went to the army early this morning. Before he left, he told me to make sure you eat your breakfast properly."
Gu Yihan hummed in agreement, picked up the milk, drank it all in one gulp, and replied, "Okay, milk."
After finishing breakfast, she happily pushed her bicycle out of the house.
Textile factory
Gu Yihan pushed open the door and saw that Sister Min and Sister Su had already arrived. She greeted them and walked briskly to her seat.
She took out a pen and started writing and drawing, calculating the spare money at home, planning to deposit it in the city during her rest time.
"Xiao Han, do you think you could...?"
Before Su Yonghong could finish speaking, Gu Yihan interrupted him, saying, "No."
She put down her pen, looked up and stared directly into Su Yonghong's eyes, and said coldly, "Sister Su, your daughter's marriage is not my responsibility."
"It's a favor if I can help you, but it's my right not to. Since I've already refused, I hope Sister Su won't make such unreasonable requests again in the future."
Su Yonghong blushed because Gu Yihan was a military wife, and she dared not offend her. She looked at Sister Min across from her.
Minjie glanced at Su Yonghong with a mocking look, thinking to herself, "They really think they can take advantage of others."
"Did you sow discord between Xiaohan and others?"
Su Yonghong glared angrily at Sister Min with red eyes.
Minjie was almost laughing in anger. What a coward! She really thinks she's easy to bully.
She said sarcastically, "Su Yonghong, don't act like a mad dog, biting anyone you can."
Gu Yihan watched as Minjie and Su Yonghong started arguing rhythmically, each saying a sentence.
She took out a newspaper and read it while watching the two of them argue to pass the time.
The two stopped bickering just as it was getting close to dinner time.
Minjie walked up to Gu Yihan and said, "Xiaohan, let's go eat."
Gu Yihan took out her lunchbox and walked side by side with Sister Min towards the cafeteria: "Xiaohan, you can't be soft-hearted."
Minjie, still worried, added, "You live in the military region, so you don't know, but their family's reputation is ruined because of this."
Gu Yihan didn't want to talk about Su Yonghong in front of Sister Min. She thought darkly to herself, what if she echoed with a meaningless comment?
What if these two suddenly go crazy and reconcile, and then sell themselves out again?
Seeing that Gu Yihan was not speaking, Minjie patted her arm and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"
Gu Yihan looked at Sister Min with an embarrassed expression and said, "Sister Min, I'm sorry, I'm pregnant, and I was feeling a little uncomfortable just now."
After hearing Gu Yihan's words, Minjie glanced at her not-yet-protruding belly and asked curiously, "Xiaohan, are you pregnant? I didn't even notice."
Seeing that Sister Min's attention had been diverted, Gu Yihan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it didn't involve her own interests, she didn't want to judge Su Yonghong.
Gu Yihan tugged at her down jacket and replied with a smile, "I'm wearing a lot, so you can't tell."
She quickly entered the cafeteria, lined up for food, and since she had eaten a lot in the morning, she wasn't hungry yet. Gu Yihan ordered a bowl of tofu soup and a steamed bun.
After the two found a seat, Minjie looked at Gu Yihan's lunchbox and said, "Why did you only eat so little?"
Gu Yihan looked at her and smiled, saying, "I'm not very hungry, this is enough."
After finishing lunch, the two were on their way back.
Min asked softly, "Xiao Han, do you hope the baby in your belly is a boy or a girl?"
Gu Yihan glanced at Sister Min, then, thinking of the baby in her belly, her eyes filled with a gentle smile: "I like girls,"
Minjie stared at her with wide eyes, quite surprised: "You actually like girls? Don't people all hope their first child is a boy, so they can gain a foothold in their husband's family?"
Gu Yihan laughed upon hearing this and shook her head, saying, "Girls are so great. They can wear all sorts of beautiful dresses and style their hair beautifully."
"Boys only wear black, gray, and blue; it looks awful."
Minjie was stunned, thinking that Gu Yihan had something wrong with her brain.
No one would like girls just because they can wear pretty clothes. Although she herself doesn't discriminate against girls, the premise is that she already has a son.
Gu Yihan didn't care what Sister Min thought. Girls are great; they can be cute and charming, obedient and adorable when they're little, and still be their mother's sweet little darlings when they grow up.
When boys are young, cats and dogs dislike them, but when they grow up, they grow wings and fly away, forgetting to even call home.
Back in the accounting office, Su Yonghong was already in her seat. Minjie glanced at her, snorted coldly, and went straight back to her own seat.
The office was incredibly tense all afternoon, but finally it was time to leave work.
After Gu Yihan became pregnant, she was very careful, always walking slowly and not in a hurry. When she got to the bicycle parking area, there were only a few bicycles left.
"Xiao Han?"
Gu Yihan didn't need to turn around; she knew it was Qiao Shuhui just by the voice. She didn't want to acknowledge her and pushed her bicycle forward.
Qiao Shuhui walked quickly to Gu Yihan and said, "I saw your grandmother giving money to a female comrade a couple of days ago."
Gu Yihan looked up at her upon hearing this, and was shocked. Her face was swollen and sallow, and her belly was frighteningly large.
Qiao Shuhui smiled at Gu Yihan: "I'm not trying to cause you trouble, I just can't bear to see you kept in the dark."
Although Qiao Shuhui looked haggard and pitiful due to her pregnancy, Gu Yihan was not prone to sympathy; she still vividly remembered what this person had done in the past.
He replied perfunctorily, "Comrade Qiao, thank you for informing me."
After saying that, Gu Yihan pushed her bicycle past her.
Qiao Shuhui couldn't help but feel envious and jealous as she looked at Gu Yihan's back. Both of them were pregnant, but their complexions and figures were completely different.
