Chapter 9 Captain Gu is Really Blessed
Yu Hui ignored what these people said and did not explain, because people who misunderstand you and those who have judged who you are will not change their minds because of your explanation.
After all, not everyone is Qian Lan, who sees her as a person and is willing to believe her.
Yu Hui went to the candy counter and bought a pound of rock sugar, a pound of granulated sugar, and a pound of milk candy.
I went to the vegetable counter and bought a pound and a half of green onions, half a pound of mushrooms, a handful of green vegetables, a pound of carrots, and half a pound of tomatoes.
I bought thirty eggs at the egg counter.
After buying everything, Yu Hui carried a big bag of things and left the grocery store amid the gazes and discussions of everyone.
She had to hurry back to make breakfast, and after making breakfast, she had to go into the city to buy milk powder from the state-owned store.
Among the three brothers, Gu Xi was the first to wake up, awakened by the fragrance.
Seeing that his brothers were still asleep, he got dressed and got out of bed.
"Mom, what delicious food are you making?" Gu Xi ran into the kitchen.
Yu Hui, who was standing in front of the stove frying scallion pancakes, shook her head. Seeing Gu Xi's hair standing up like fried hair, she couldn't help but smile, "Frying scallion pancakes, are you guys awake?"
"Not yet." Gu Xi shook his head, staring at the golden and green pancakes on the plate on the stove, swallowing his saliva, "Mom, I want to eat pancakes."
Yu Hui looked at him and said, "You need to wake up your brothers and have them help you brush your teeth and wash your face before you can eat."
"I'll go call them right away." After saying that, Gu Xi ran out of the kitchen.
Gu Dong and Gu Nan were woken up by Gu Xi, and Gu Dong carried his awakened sister into the kitchen.
Yu Hui had fried the scallion pancakes. She fetched water for the children to wash their faces, then changed Beibei's diaper and wiped his face.
The three brothers squatted under the eaves of the kitchen and brushed their teeth. Yu Hui put Beibei in the cradle in the main room, picked up four thick scallion pancakes and five eggs, and asked Gu Dong and Gu Nan to send the one pound of pork belly that had been divided to the next door. The eggs and meat were returned to the next door.
The two brothers put on stern faces in front of their stepmother, as if they were unwilling to be ordered around by her, but their expressions changed when they went next door.
The Yu family was having breakfast. Seeing the two brothers coming, Yu Qiang invited them to sit down and have something to eat as usual.
"Uncle Yu, Aunt Qian, Brother Jianshe, Brother Lixin." The two brothers called people very politely.
"Dongdong, what are you holding?" Yu Lixin asked while swallowing his saliva, his eyes glued to Gu Dong's hand.
Gu Dong: "Yu Hui asked me to bring the scallion pancakes."
"There are also meat and eggs. Yu Hui said she would return them." Gu Nan took out the eggs from his pocket and put them on the table.
Qian Lan looked at the two brothers disapprovingly, "What Yu Hui? That's your mother."
After that, she took the pork belly from Gu Nan and the scallion pancake from Gu Dong, then turned to Yu Qiang and said, "Look, Xiao Yu is just being polite. She lent her some things, and when she returned them, she even gave her such a delicious scallion pancake."
While she was cooking, she smelled the fragrance coming from next door. She was still curious about what Xiao Yu was making, and then Xiao Yu asked the children to bring it over.
Qian Lan poured the scallion pancakes into the plate of eggs on the table and returned the plate to Gu Dong.
Thinking it would be bad to leave the two children empty-handed, I gave them three candies.
As soon as the two brothers left, Yu Lixin took a piece of still hot scallion pancake to eat.
"Crunch..." The crispy texture of the skin made his eyes light up, and the aroma of onions and meat inside made him chew and swallow faster.
"Mom, this scallion pancake is so delicious!"
"Is it that exaggerated?" Yu Jianshe picked up a scallion pancake suspiciously and took a bite. He was stunned at first, then he quickened his eating pace.
After hearing what her son said, Qian Lan also picked up the scallion pancake and took a bite. "Xiao Yu's cooking skills are amazing."
It was the first time she had ever eaten such a delicious pancake, which was much better than the one made by the chef in the cafeteria.
Yu Qiang nodded in agreement with his wife while eating, and thought to himself that Captain Gu was very lucky. His first wife was beautiful, and his second wife was a good cook.
"Ah, ha, ha..." Gu Huai, who was wearing a green military uniform and sitting upright in class, sneezed twice while covering his nose.
He glanced around and felt relieved when he saw that he was not disturbing other people's classes.
Rubbing his itchy nose, the old man often said that sneezing means someone is missing him. He has been away from home for more than ten days and doesn’t know how his children at home are doing?
Did the three sons listen to Yu Hui?
He could see that the two older children were very disgusted with their stepmother Yu Hui.
When I'm here, I can still control them a little, but when I'm not here, the two older ones will probably become even more noisy.
Gu Huai couldn't say he liked his young wife, whom he had been married to for only two months, but he didn't hate her either.
Although he was forced to marry by his mother, he knew very well that it would be difficult for a man like him with four children to find a good remarriage partner. Even if he did find one, the other person might not be genuinely good to the children.
Just as his mother said, although Yu Hui is illiterate and uneducated, she is honest, hardworking, kind-hearted and sincere.
Only if she marries him will she do her best to help him take care of the four children, treat them well with all her heart, and let him have no worries.
After the divorce, he was so busy raising four children and working that he couldn't take care of anything.
Work, not doing the job well.
The house is a mess, a complete mess.
So, he compromised, listened to his mother, and got married with Yu Hui.
After they got married, Yu Hui basically didn't let him worry about any household matters. She kept the house in tidy order and didn't let the four children go hungry or cold.
However, the two older ones are a little disobedient.
Compared to his previous marriage, this gives him much less worries, and he is quite satisfied with his current situation.
Thinking of his previous marriage, a hint of sadness appeared on Gu Huai's resolute face.
Gu Huai and Lin Siyu were introduced to each other. He was attracted to her at first sight because of her fair, beautiful and bookish appearance. It can be said that he fell in love with her at first sight.
She was willing to date him and marry him, and Gu Huai thought that she also liked him. Although she had been very cold after marriage and did not know how to cook or do housework, he just thought that was her personality.
But he didn't expect that when she filed for divorce, he found out that she was willing to marry him not because she loved him, but because she didn't want to go to the countryside, so she got married with him under the pressure of her parents.
She also said that she looked down on a crude country boy like him, and that she took a shower after every act not because she liked to be clean, but because she hated the smell he left on her body.
She also hated the four children he had made her give birth to like a sow, litter after litter.
Lin Siyu's words deeply hurt Gu Huai's heart. He didn't expect that she had always had this idea in her mind.
He did not listen to his mother-in-law's advice, nor did he try to keep her, and directly divorced Lin Siyu.
What else can he want to keep a mother who doesn't love her children and a wife whose heart is not with him?
Now he just wants to finish his studies and go home early, live a good life and work well.
