Chapter 244 Suffering a loss is a blessing
The next morning
After getting up, Lu Huailin turned around and kissed his wife's forehead.
She then reached out and picked up Hao Hao, who had just woken up, and quickly helped him urinate and get dressed.
Grandma Gu heard the noise in the bedroom and knew that Lu Huailin had gotten up.
Standing at the door, he asked softly, "Xiao Lu, is Hao Hao awake yet?"
"Daddy, Grandma," Hao Hao called out in his childish voice.
"Shh, son, your mother hasn't woken up yet, so don't speak loudly."
After Lu Huailin finished speaking, he quickly picked up Hao Hao, carefully opened the door, and went out.
One hour later
Gu Yihan raised her hand to rub her eyes, opened them, looked at the tarpaulin above her head, and sighed.
He muttered, "I'm so tired!"
She lifted the blanket and just as she sat up, the little hamster fell out of her chest.
Gu Yihan looked at the sleepy little hamster and laughed in exasperation.
She knew it, she was so tired after sleeping so much last night.
I always feel like there's a big rock pressing on my chest.
I even had a nightmare where I traveled back to the War of Resistance against Japan and was chased and beaten by the Japanese devils.
She was fully conscious in the dream, and although she knew it was a dream, she just couldn't wake up.
These are all probably the work of this little hamster.
Gu Yihan reached out and grabbed the hamster by its tail, then slammed it against the bedroom door with a powerful swing of her arm.
A "thump."
The little hamster bumped into the wooden door of the bedroom and slid down the door panel.
The little hamster that fell to the ground was bewildered. After looking around, it realized it was Gu Yihan's bedroom.
The next instant, all the fur on its body stood on end.
With her small eyes wide open, she jumped up and yelled, "Gu Yihan, are you sick? Why did you throw me like that for no reason!"
Gu Yihan finished dressing, walked up to the little hamster, and squinted at it.
He kicked it under the bed and said coldly, "You made me lose a night's sleep and you still have the nerve to complain."
After saying that, she ignored it, opened the bedroom door, and walked out.
After the little hamster stood firm, it stared at Gu Yihan's figure, its tiny whiskers bristling with anger.
If it weren't for the fact that it had been away from the space for too long, causing its soul to become somewhat unstable, it wouldn't have tolerated Gu Yihan's sullen attitude.
In the courtyard
"Xiao Han, wake up."
Su Nian, carrying her youngest daughter Zhou Ni, followed Grandma Gu in as they entered.
Seeing Gu Yihan standing in the yard, bending over to wash up, she smiled and greeted her.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yihan looked up, picked up a towel from the sink stand, and said while wiping herself, "Sister Su, why are you up so early?"
She was quite surprised, as this was the first time she had seen Su Nian so early.
Su Nian smiled slightly at Gu Yihan and said, "Ni woke up earlier."
Grandma Gu glanced at Su Nian. Coming to see her granddaughter so early, she must need help with something.
She pursed her lips and said, "Alright, that's enough. Let's go inside and sit for a while."
"Xiao Han, there's some food left for you in the kitchen. Take it to the table in a bit."
Gu Yihan looked at Grandma Gu's expression with surprise, smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "I understand, Grandma."
She tidied her hair, which was wet from washing her face, and turned to smile at Su Nian, who was standing to the side.
He said, "Sister Su, why don't you go inside and rest for a while?"
Su Nian smiled and nodded, then hugged Zhou Ni and followed Grandma Gu back into the house.
Grandma Gu sat on the mat on the ground, looked up at Su Nian, and said, "Little Su, has your mother-in-law always been this unreasonable?"
Upon hearing this, Su Nian gave an awkward laugh, unsure of how to explain it to Grandma Gu.
It is said that family scandals should not be aired in public.
But after her mother-in-law made such a scene in the residential compound yesterday, I guess everyone knows about their family's situation now.
"Xiao Su, your mother-in-law..."
"Grandma, after get off work today, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy you a radio."
Gu Yihan carried millet porridge and eggs into the living room, interrupting Grandma Gu's desire to get to the bottom of things.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Gu excitedly slapped her thigh and looked directly at her granddaughter, asking, "Really?"
Gu Yihan walked to the dining table and sat down, smiling as she said, "Grandma, when has your granddaughter ever lied to you?"
She suddenly remembered that Grandma Gu had been taking care of Hao Hao at home for a long time, and over time, she had become depressed.
Buy her a semiconductor device to cheer her up.
Grandma Gu's eyes narrowed into slits with laughter.
Seeing Hao Hao playing with building blocks, she picked him up and lifted him above her head, smiling at him and saying, "Mommy, okay?"
Hao Hao was startled and stunned for a moment when Grandma Gu suddenly picked him up.
She fluttered her little feet, stepping on the air, and soon burst into giggles.
Su Nian sat on the sofa, watching Hao Hao interact with Grandma Gu, and couldn't help but show an envious expression.
She turned to look at Gu Yihan, who was eating breakfast, and said, "Xiaohan, I've started my period, and my stomach is upset. We're out of brown sugar."
"Could you bring me half a pound of brown sugar after get off work?"
Gu Yihan swallowed the egg in her mouth, looked up at Su Nian, and smiled.
He said, "Okay, it's nothing."
Seeing that Gu Yihan had agreed, Su Nian smiled gratefully at her and quickly took out the money she had prepared in advance and placed it on the dining table.
Gu Yihan didn't stand on ceremony and casually put the money into her pocket.
On the other side
large courtyard
The Jiang family's six-square-meter partitioned room
Jiang Zifeng lay on a three-legged stool and carefully recorded everything Mei Erhua had done over the past week.
Grandpa Jiang had just finished cleaning the toilet when he returned home and saw his grandson writing diligently. A look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
I slowed down, walked over to him, and after reading what he had written, the smile on my face gradually disappeared.
He snatched it away.
Jiang Zifeng was startled by the sudden appearance of Grandpa Jiang, and wrinkled her little nose: "Grandpa, why are you taking my things?"
Grandpa Jiang was surprised to see that his grandson hadn't realized his mistake.
He growled in a low voice, "Xiao Feng, do you know what you're doing?"
"If what you wrote gets out, it will harm people. Don't you know that?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zifeng calmly looked up at his grandfather and whispered, "Grandpa, I know."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Jiang's face turned cold, and he gripped the paper in his hand tightly.
Suppressing her anger, she walked over to her grandson, squatted down, looked directly into his eyes, and patiently said, "Xiao Feng, you are still young and don't understand the seriousness of the matter."
"We need to have a bottom line. Even if others haven't harmed us, you can't..."
Jiang Xiaofeng jumped to her feet, her eyes bloodshot, and interrupted Grandpa Jiang: "Grandpa, she insulted me!"
Grandpa Jiang glanced at his thin grandson and wiped his eyes with his sleeve: "Xiao Feng, suffering is a blessing."
I won't listen.
"Your idea of 'suffering a loss is a blessing' means that if someone steals your family's food, you can't say a word in your defense."
"And the thicker clothes and blankets at home were also taken away. We can only endure it and bear it!"
Jiang Zifeng cried as she questioned Grandpa Jiang.
Grandpa Jiang looked at his grandson, opened his mouth as if to say that their family had a bad class background.
If you're not careful, you might not even have a place to stay.
