Chapter 77: Three Bedrooms and One Living Room
The one who filed for divorce was Lin Siyu, and she was also the one who didn't want the children or this family.
But Gu Huai didn't want to say that his ex-wife was wrong in front of his children, making them feel that their mother had abandoned them and resent and hate her.
This is also a kind of harm to them.
"Your mother Yu Hui is your father's new wife and also your new mother. She takes care of you, washes clothes and cooks for you, and protects you and stands up for you when you are bullied." Gu Huai's mouth felt a little dry when he said this, so he paused.
"She does what a mother does, silently giving to you, and you must respect her."
There are many things that their biological mothers have never done for them.
"Just because you can't accept the fact that Mom left this home and separated from us, you can't hate her or hurt her. That's wrong. She didn't do anything wrong."
Yu Hui exhaled a breath of foul air. If the original owner had not left, she would probably feel comforted after hearing these words.
Although Gu Huai did not marry the original owner out of love or affection, he still had very positive values and respected her very much.
Gu Dong pursed his lips, wanting to cry but not crying. He knew that what his father said was right and made sense, but he just couldn't accept it in his heart.
Once he accepts it, his biological mother will never come back.
"Do you understand?" Gu Huai asked the three children.
"I understand." Gu Xixi sat properly and nodded honestly.
Gu Nan glanced at his elder brother and whispered, "I see."
Gu Dong suddenly raised his head and glared at his second brother Gu Nan, saying that he had also betrayed him.
Gu Nan lowered his head and scratched his neck to avoid his brother's gaze.
He didn't want to rebel, but for the first time in his life, he felt protected by his mother, and he liked this feeling very much.
"Gu Dong." Seeing that his eldest son had been silent, Gu Huai called his name.
"I understand." Gu Dong said in a muffled voice with his head lowered.
Gu Huai showed a look of relief, raised his head and smiled at Yu Hui.
Yu Hui: “!”
If you're not my big brother, why are you smiling at me?
It was nine o'clock in the evening. The three Gu Dong brothers went back to their room to sleep, and Yu Hui also carried Beibei back to the bedroom.
The quilt for the small bed in Gu Huai's study was placed in the closet in the master bedroom.
Yu Hui had just laid down when Gu Huai pushed the door open. She suddenly sat up, grabbing the thin quilt and looking at him warily.
Could it be that he wants to go back to the bedroom and sleep?
Gu Huai was startled by her movement. Seeing her looking at him warily, as if facing a great enemy, he touched his nose and said awkwardly, "Let me get a blanket."
Quilt?
What quilt?
Seeing Gu Huai opening the wardrobe, Yu Hui suddenly realized what was going on and was so embarrassed that she could have dug out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment with her toes.
Gu Huai just came to get the quilt, she thought...
This is so embarrassing.
Gu Huai took out a thin quilt from the upper layer of the wardrobe.
"Go to bed early." After saying that, he went out with the quilt and closed the door.
Gu Huai hugged the quilt and sighed. It seemed that Xiaohui was still afraid of him.
Let's wait a little longer.
Ahhhh, so embarrassing.
Yu Hui covered her head with a thin blanket and screamed silently.
"Gu Dong, Gu Dong..."
Gu Dong was angry with his brother last night and fell asleep very late. While he was dreaming, he heard someone calling his name.
"What are you doing..." He groaned, turned over and covered his head with the quilt.
"It's dawn. It's time to get up and go to school, otherwise you'll be late." The quilt over my head was pulled away.
When he heard the word "late", Gu Dong sat up suddenly.
If he was late, he would have to stand on the podium to attend the class, and he didn't want to be so embarrassed.
"Dad?" Gu Dong saw his father standing beside the bed. He felt that the light was a little dim. He looked out the window. It was still dark.
"Go wash up." After saying that, Gu Huai started calling another little pig, Gu Nan.
Gu Dong looked at his father who started to call his second brother, "It's not dawn yet."
"It's not daylight yet, but you should get up."
"Why?" Why should he get up before dawn?
Gu Nan was also woken up at this time, rubbing his eyes and looking like he was still sleepy.
"Because children who do wrong must be punished."
Another punishment? Gu Dong suddenly became fully awake and asked angrily, "Did she complain to you again?"
I punished him by making him wash the dishes yesterday, and today he was asked to get up early again. He must have been complaining again.
"She didn't say anything," Gu Huai frowned and said, "others told me everything. Gu Dong, before I left, I told you to be obedient."
"You teased and slandered Mom, causing her so much injustice and hurting her heart. Naturally, you must be punished."
"From today on, you are responsible for the cooking at home, Gu Dong, and the cooking at home, Gu Nan."
"Every morning at 5:30, get up and run with me for half an hour and stand for half an hour. The punishment will end only when you truly realize your mistakes and sincerely apologize to your mother."
"Dad, I was wrong. I will go and apologize to Mom later." Gu Nan, who is always smart, immediately raised his hand and said.
"Okay, then tell me where you went wrong?"
"I..." Gu Nan scratched his head and thought, "I shouldn't have played tricks on Mom with my brother before."
"Comrade Gu Nan, it's obvious that you haven't realized your mistake yet. Get up quickly." After Gu Huai finished speaking, he left them with a cold back.
After Gu Dong and Gu Nan finished washing up, they were taken out by Gu Huai to run as punishment.
Gu Nan couldn't run anymore after running for less than five minutes, but Gu Dong could still hold on.
Gu Huai did not let go of Gu Nan who was unable to run, but carried him with one hand and ran.
Gu Nan was so dizzy and his internal organs seemed to be displaced that he felt very uncomfortable.
When Gu Dong couldn't run anymore, Gu Huai did the same, running with one child in each arm.
When people who were also jogging in the morning saw this, they praised Gu Huai's weighted running as a novel way.
After running, Gu Huai went to the cafeteria to buy some buns and fried dough sticks. After returning home, he boiled some hot water and gave Gu Dong and Gu Nan a bath. He asked them to change their clothes and stand against the wall under the eaves as punishment.
Gu Huai also took a bath and cooked porridge on the stove.
When Yu Hui woke up and walked out of the main room, she saw Gu Dong and Gu Nan standing under the eaves.
"What are you doing standing here?" she asked curiously.
Gu Dong glanced at her and continued to face the wall. Gu Nan whispered, "Standing in the corner as punishment."
"What did you do wrong so early in the morning that your dad made you stand in the corner as punishment?" Did you wet the bed last night?
"Are you up?" Gu Huai walked out of the kitchen. "The porridge is almost ready. I bought some buns and fried dough sticks from the cafeteria. You can get ready to eat after you wash up."
Is the meal cooked?
Gu Huai is quite hardworking.
Yu Hui took the washbasin to the kitchen to get some hot water, and asked Gu Huai, "What happened to Gu Dong and Gu Nan? You're standing in the corner so early in the morning."
“They did the wrong thing.”
Yu Hui rolled her eyes. He must have done something wrong and was being punished by standing in the corner. If he punished his child for no reason, then there was something wrong with his father.
"So what's it about?"
