Chapter 60 Grandma is doing this for you
Gu Dong: "We're here to see grandpa."
Qin Shulan's expression froze. She didn't expect Gu Dong and the others would come specially to see her.
The old man was not at home. He was playing chess with Old Sun under the Huangguoshu tree in the alley. Gu Dong and the others should have seen him before going upstairs.
"Grandma, Grandpa is obviously not sick, why are you..." Gu Nan couldn't help but ask, but he stopped before he finished speaking.
Qin Shulan leaned sideways, put the cake in her hand into her pocket, walked forward, and took the candies and biscuits from her two grandsons.
"Grandma, this is all for you."
For us? The two brothers looked at each other, not quite understanding.
Qin Shulan put the candy and biscuits into the chest of drawers, closed the door, and turned to look at her two grandsons and said, "Your father gave all his salary to your stepmother. The money is in her hands. Can she still give you this money? Can she spend it on you?"
"I can find an excuse to ask for a little money now, just a little bit, and save it secretly for you so that you can use it in the future." Qin Shulan looked like she was thinking, "I'm doing this all for you."
Although grandma lied and cheated money in order to save it for them, Gu Dong and Gu Nan still felt that lying and cheating money in this way was not good and was a moral problem as their father said.
"She also buys us food, clothes, and toys." Gu Dong said in a low voice.
How can this not be counted as spending on them?
Qin Shulan: "How much money can she spend? She has plenty of money in her hands."
"Anyway, just remember that no matter what Grandma did, it was all for your own good. Don't listen to your wicked stepmother and the neighbors' instigation and think that Grandma is bad and doesn't love her anymore."
Gu Nan wanted to say, "My stepmother didn't say anything," but he held back.
Although the neighbor aunts and mothers-in-law said bad things about my grandmother, my stepmother never mentioned it again after she passed away.
Gu Dong nodded stiffly, "I know, grandma is doing this for our own good. I won't stop loving her."
Grandma lied and deceived them, but she was also the best grandma to them.
When Qin Shulan heard this, she smiled and changed the subject.
"You came here by yourself?"
"No, I took the bus into the city with my stepmother. My brother and I got off the bus at Liujiatuo, and my stepmother continued to drive Xixi and my sister to the state-owned store to buy things."
Qin Shulan wrinkled her nose and said, "You're still buying things at state-owned stores. It's not your own money, so you really don't feel bad about spending it."
When she thought of Yu Hui taking her children shopping in state-owned stores, she felt as if her own money was being spent by Yu Hui and felt very sad.
Gu Dong frowned, "Beibei's milk powder is gone. She went to buy some."
Lin Chenglong, who was playing with a wooden cart, drooled as soon as he heard the word "milk powder" and shouted, "Grandma, drink some..."
Qin Shulan glanced at her eldest grandson, then said to Gu Dong and Gu Nan, "Your brother Longlong is out of milk powder, and our family can't get any more coupons. It just so happens that your stepmother bought some. Gu Dong, why don't you go back tomorrow and bring two bags to your brother Longlong?"
There was such a commotion the day before yesterday, and those gossipy women in the military family compound will definitely spread the news all over the compound, so she has been too embarrassed to go there recently.
My baby grandson is out of milk powder, so I have no choice but to trouble my grandson to deliver it to him.
Gu Dong was in a dilemma and didn't know how to refuse his grandmother.
Last time, grandma took away two bags of milk powder, and Beibei almost ran out of food. It was only after I went to ask Brother Wu Chao’s mother for two milk powder coupons that Beibei did not run out of food.
Because of this, he always felt a little sorry for his sister.
Gu Nan glanced at his little brother Longlong with some disdain. He was drooling and his eyes were squeezed into slits by the flesh on his face. "Brother Longlong is almost two years old and still so fat. He doesn't need to eat milk powder anymore."
My sister’s milk powder is rationed, with only six milk powder coupons a month. If she gives the milk powder to others, she won’t have enough.
Little brother Longlong is so big and fat now, he doesn’t need milk powder anymore.
Lin Chenglong and Lin Chengfeng were born in July and will be two years old next month.
"Your little brother Longlong loves to eat, doesn't he? Beibei is the one who really needs to be weaned." Qin Shulan was disgusted when she thought of Beibei, a little girl who was already one year old and still eating formula. "She's already one year and one month old, so she can eat rice. But your little sister Fengfeng, she only eats rice now. She eats whatever the adults eat."
Gu Dong and Gu Nan both looked at Sister Fengfeng who had been sitting quietly in the corner of the lounge chair.
He was obviously the same size as Longlong, but he looked two times smaller than Longlong. His hair and face were yellow, and he was thin. There was a bruise at the corner of his eye, and his clothes were dirty. He looked timidly at them, and looked a little pitiful.
Grandma asked them to tell outsiders that their stepmother abused Beibei and them, but compared with her younger sister Fengfeng, Beibei was much better than her.
Gu Dong felt a little uncomfortable. "Beibei has never had breast milk, so it's not nutritious enough. She needs to drink milk powder for a longer time. Besides, Beibei also likes milk powder."
"Longlong and Fengfeng are the same age. If Fengfeng can eat, then Longlong can eat too."
Qin Shulan was stunned. She didn't expect Gu Dong to refute her grandmother's words. In the past, he always did whatever she said and was particularly filial to her grandmother.
She doesn't eat meat or eggs, so she always gives the eggs to her grandmother.
Today, I just asked him to send two bags of milk powder tomorrow, but he actually said these words.
Seeing that his grandmother looked unhappy, Gu Nan was afraid that she would be unhappy because his brother did not bring her milk powder, so he said, "Last time, grandma took away my sister's milk powder, and my sister almost became weaned. Now my stepmother is watching my sister's milk powder very strictly and even locked it up, and doesn't allow us to touch it." He told a little lie.
"Is that so? Forget it then." Qin Shulan said unhappily, then sat back down on the reclining chair, stroking her eldest grandson's chubby face and saying, "Poor Longlong, he won't have any milk powder to eat anymore."
When Lin Chenglong heard that he would have no more milk powder to eat, he burst into tears.
He seemed to know that it was because his cousin Gu Dong didn't send him milk powder that he had no milk powder to eat.
He threw the small wooden cart in his hand directly at Gu Dong. The latter didn't have time to dodge and was hit on the forehead.
"Ah..." Gu Dong covered his forehead and cried out in pain.
"Why are you hitting people?" Gu Nan pointed at his cousin angrily.
"Oh, Longlong, be good. Don't cry, Longlong." Qin Shulan coaxed her precious grandson while turning her head to look at Gu Dong who was covering his head. "Your brother Longlong didn't mean it. He's still young. How much can a single hit hurt? Don't bother with him."
Gu Dong rubbed his forehead and put his hand down. Gu Nan looked and saw that his forehead was red.
"It's all red. He obviously did it on purpose." Gu Nan said angrily, glaring at his cousin.
Qin Shulan was a little impatient. "Oh, he's young. You are his elder brothers, so don't bother with him. Brothers shouldn't be so stingy."
Longlong obviously did it on purpose and it was his fault. But instead of saying anything to Longlong, grandma said they were stingy.
Gu Nan's cheeks puffed up with anger. Gu Dong curled his lips, feeling a little aggrieved, but said nothing.
