Chapter 59: Not Like a Person Without Milk
"How about this, we'll take the bus into the city together. You get off at Liujiatuo to visit Grandpa, and I'll take Xixi and Beibei to the state-owned store to buy things. We'll take the 2:30 pm bus home. After lunch, around 2:20 pm, you can go to the bus stop and wait, and we'll come back together."
Beibei’s milk powder was almost finished, and she had just received a milk powder coupon, so she went to buy some more.
The last time Qian Lan went to a state-owned store to buy cloth, she heard that the store had received a batch of navy blue striped cotton cloth, and the color was very beautiful.
Isn’t that the fabric used to make sailor shirts?
Yu Hui planned to buy some and make a short-sleeved sailor shirt for each of the children.
Gu Dong had no objection to this arrangement and nodded in agreement.
Before leaving, Yu Hui also asked the two brothers to pick two items from the gifts sent by others as an apology and take them to visit their grandfather.
Although their grandmother was a liar, it would be inappropriate for the grandchildren to go visit their grandfather empty-handed.
Gu Dong chose a bag of rock sugar and a box of biscuits.
When she got on the bus, the ticket seller was still the one Yu Hui was familiar with.
The ticket seller was talkative and chatted with Yu Hui all the way. When they arrived at Liujiatuo Station, Gu Dong and Gu Nan got off the bus.
"Why did these two kids get off the bus?" After collecting the tickets from the people getting on the bus, the conductor walked up to Yu Hui and started chatting with her.
Yu Hui smiled and said, "They went to see grandpa."
"Then why aren't you going?" the conductor seemed puzzled. Isn't the child's grandfather her father? Shouldn't she go down with him?
"I'm their stepmother, and they're visiting their biological grandfather."
The conductor was stunned for a moment, then pointed at the two children in her arms and the one sitting next to her and asked, "These two are your children. I was saying that at your age, you don't look like you can give birth to children that big."
Yu Hui smiled and shook her head, "Neither."
The conductor was stunned again, staring at Yu Hui for a long time before giving her a thumbs up. "You are this good. Even as a stepmother, you can still raise several children so well."
She admired her from the bottom of her heart. If she compared her own children with her children, her own children looked like they were raised by a stepmother.
After getting off the car, Yu Hui put Beibei into a small backpack specially for carrying children, put Beibei on her back, held Gu Xixi's hand, and walked into the state-owned store.
There are many new arrivals at the cloth counter, including fashionable and good-looking cloths, and there are quite a lot of people queuing up at the moment.
Yu Hui held Gu Xixi's hand and stood at the end of the line.
She waited for more than twenty minutes before it was her turn. In addition to the navy blue striped cloth, there was also a new bright red polka dot gauze. The material was very thin and no cloth coupons were required.
Whether it is made into a dress or a stand-up collar shirt, it will look very Hong Kong and beautiful.
People of this era still wore relatively simple clothes. Although this bright red polka-dot gauze looked nice and many people liked it, few people bought it.
Yu Hui bought four meters and planned to make herself a short-sleeved shirt and a long skirt.
The remaining material can also be used to make a small skirt for Beibei.
I bought six meters of navy blue striped fabric.
After buying it, I went to the milk powder counter.
Yu Hui bought four bags at once. The salesperson took one look at the child in her backpack and reminded her, "This child is already over a year old. You can stop using this milk powder now."
Many children whose mothers have little breast milk stop feeding them with formula at ten or eleven months old, and are fed with muddled food instead.
Yu Hui smiled and said, "Our child has never been breastfed, so I want her to continue drinking this formula for a while longer before stopping."
Hearing this, the salesperson stared at her breasts for a few seconds, frowned, and said, "You don't look like someone who doesn't have any breasts at all."
Yu Hui: “…”
Although the original owner was thin, her breasts were not small at all. Unlike her previous body, which only had a pair of A cups, the original owner had at least C cups, which was a very perfect breast shape.
Because she was embarrassed, the original owner always wore a chest binder and always hunched her back, so no one noticed her good figure.
But Yu Hui couldn't stand it, so she never tied her clothes since she came here. She also walked with her head held high and her chest puffed out. The clothes she wore also fit her well, which showed off her good figure.
Speaking of breasts, she should buy herself two suitable bras. The original owner's thick vest is almost worn out.
After Gu Dong and Gu Nan got off the car, they carried candies and biscuits and walked towards the yard where their grandfather lived.
As soon as I walked into the alley of my grandfather's yard, I saw him wearing a gray vest, waving a fan, and playing chess with someone under a big tree.
Gu Dong and Gu Xi looked at each other and saw a hint of disappointment in each other's eyes. Grandpa was indeed not sick.
The two brothers still walked over carrying their things.
"Grandpa." Gu Dong shouted.
Lin Yong only had his eyes on the chess pieces and didn't notice someone calling him, "I'm going to use my chariot to take your cannon."
"Grandpa." Gu Nan also shouted.
"Old Lin, your grandson is here." The old man who was playing chess with Lin saw Gu Dong and Gu Nan.
"What grandson? Old Sun, you're trying to trick me again. While I'm looking back, change the position of the chess piece."
Old Sun rolled his eyes at him and said, "Your grandson is really here."
"Grandpa." Gu Dong and Gu Nan called out in unison.
This time Lin Yong heard it and turned around to see Gu Dong and Gu Nan, whom he had met during the Chinese New Year.
Seeing his two grandchildren, his face did not show the joy that Gu Dong and Gu Nan had expected. Instead, he frowned and asked, "Why are you two here?"
Grandpa was so cold that the two brothers felt a little lost. Gu Dong said, "Grandma said you were sick, so we came to see you."
"I'm sick? When did I get sick? This old woman is cursing me!" Lin Yong didn't think anything was wrong and blurted out the answer.
On Thursday, Qin Shulan only said that she was going to the military family home to visit her grandson, and did not say that she was going to ask for money under the pretext of Lin Yong's illness.
If other people in the family knew that she had gone to ask for the money and wanted it back, not only would the money not fall into her hands, but if she didn't get it back, they would also think that she had hidden it away.
It turned out that grandma went there to lie and cheat money.
"They're bringing more things," Lin Yong said, noticing the candies and cookies the two brothers were carrying. "Come in quickly, your grandma is home."
Gu Dong nodded, then walked into the yard as if he was familiar with the place, went up to the second floor, and entered the two-bedroom apartment at the far end.
"Come, let our Longlong have another bite." In the living room, Qin Shulan was feeding her baby grandson egg cake, breaking it off into small pieces and feeding it to him.
Lin Chengfeng sat on a reclining chair, looking up with drooling eyes.
"Grandma." Gu Dong walked into the house and called out.
Hearing Gu Dong's voice, Qin Shulan subconsciously hid the egg cake in her hand behind her back.
Her action stung Gu Dong and Gu Nan's eyes. Why did grandma hide the egg cake? Was she afraid that they would snatch the egg cake from their younger brother Longlong?
"Why are you here?" Qin Shulan looked at her two grandsons in surprise.
