After arriving home, she found Gu Zhao sitting on the bed with his back to her, holding the child. He didn't even turn around when he heard her come back.
Tian Tian was a little confused and took a look. "What's wrong with you?"
But as soon as she sat down next to Gu Zhao, Gu Zhao turned around and wiped his face with the child in his arms, then turned around and said, "Nothing's wrong."
As soon as Tian Tian saw Gu Zhao’s red eyes, she knew that he must be feeling very uncomfortable.
"You've been busy with the funeral arrangements these past few days, and you haven't had time to think about Gu Xingshu's absence. But now that the funeral is over and you're not so busy anymore, you suddenly have that energy back.
Gu Zhao couldn't accept it for a moment. Tian Tian didn't say anything to comfort him, but reached out and hugged Gu Zhao.
Gu Zhao couldn't help it anymore, so he put the child aside, lay in Tian Tian's arms, and cried out loud.
"I will never see my grandfather again."
In fact, when Gu Zhao was young, it was Gu Xingshu who took care of him more. He taught Gu Zhao how to walk, write, and draw.
During the years he spent in the brigade, his relationship with his grandfather became increasingly better.
In fact, Gu Xingshu had been ill for such a long time, they had been mentally prepared, and Gu Zhao also thought that he could accept his grandfather's departure. But now that his grandfather is really gone, Gu Zhao felt a little bad when he thought that he would never see his grandfather again.
They have been living at home during this period just because they want to see their grandfather more often and not have any regrets if their grandfather really passes away.
Gu Zhao and the others tried their best to prepare for this day, but when this day came, he still couldn't bear it.
"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore." Tian Tian hugged Gu Zhao and said, she knew how this felt. In fact, she couldn't imagine what she would do if Old Mrs. Tian passed away.
She felt that she would definitely be devastated.
Gu Zhao cried heartily in Tian Tian's arms. After venting the pain in his heart, he felt a lot more relieved.
Gu Zhao was still a little embarrassed.
"Did your parents get on the car and leave safely?" Gu Zhao wiped his tears and asked, changing the subject.
"Don't worry, they've all left. I watched them get on the bus."
"That's good! Are you hungry? I'll go out and cook for you." Gu Zhao said.
Tian Tian didn't specifically mention the fact that he was crying just now, but nodded, "What else is there at home? Let's eat some vegetarian dishes. We are a little tired of eating fish and meat these days. Let's get some vegetables to eat?"
Gu Zhao nodded and went to the kitchen outside to see if there was anything.
There have been people coming and going in our house these two days, so most of the meals were eaten in restaurants. Even the vegetarian dishes in the restaurants were often fried with lard, which was quite greasy.
What Tian Tian wants to eat most right now is mixed cucumbers, but there are no cucumbers available at this time.
Tian Tian saw An An sleeping soundly beside her, so she went to the bathroom and changed into home clothes. Then she came over and hugged An An in her arms, gently kissed her delicate little hand, and felt at ease.
Gu Zhao cooks very quickly. Tian Tian felt that it didn’t take long before Gu Zhao came over to call her to eat.
She went to the dining table and saw a plate of stir-fried pickled cabbage and a plate of radish strips.
When Tian Tian saw the plate of radish strips, she could hardly control her saliva. Radishes are at their most delicious now, and the radishes here are crispy, sweet, and very juicy, just like fruits.
Tian Tian ate several radishes in a row before her craving was somewhat relieved.
Gu Zhao saw this and laughed, "If you don't know, you might think I'm abusing you. You eat a carrot so happily."
Tian Tian sighed.
"Because it's really delicious. I'm tired of eating so much meat and fish these days." Tian Tian said a little coquettishly.
Gu Zhao shook his head helplessly, picked up a few more radishes and put them in Tian Tian's bowl, "Do you want some sauce? If you want some, I'll get it for you. These radishes taste best when dipped in soybean paste."
Tian Tian shook her head. "No, the radish is sweet and delicious."
Tian Tian ate most of the radishes by herself, and Gu Zhao finished the plate of sauerkraut.
The pickled cabbage was fried dry and crispy, which was just right when eaten with rice. Tian Tian usually liked to eat it very much, but today she preferred the crispy and sweet radish.
They ate the two dishes cleanly, then went to feed An An who had woken up, and watched An An crawling around on the ground and playing for a while.
They played until the evening and then changed An An into clean clothes and a diaper. They also went to the bathroom to take a bath and then went to bed.
Although Gu Xingshu passed away, the living still have to live their lives. After Gu Zhao and the others were sad for a while, they devoted themselves to their work and gradually dissipated their sadness. In the blink of an eye, it was January.
Tian Tian has been very busy during this period. Only after the exam is over did she feel completely relaxed.
On the last morning, I finished all these tasks and then had a complete holiday.
During the holiday, Tian Tian didn't think about going to the nursery to pick up An An. Instead, she went home relaxed. She first called Gu Zhao and asked him not to forget to pick up the child during the holiday. Then she went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into pajamas, rolled onto the bed with ease, and after a deep sleep of two hours, all the physical fatigue she had accumulated during this period was relieved.
After waking up, they went to the kitchen cupboard and rummaged through the various snacks they had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative and department store during this period. They placed all of them on the coffee table and ate snacks while watching TV. The television industry is developing quite well now, and many TV shows that will become famous in the future have already been released.
Tian Tian was watching TV leisurely until there was a sound at the door in the evening. Gu Zhao came in carrying An An. Tian Tian took a look but did not move and continued to sit on the sofa and watch TV.
"Mom." An An waved her little hands and said to Tian Tian. She could speak now, but her words were unclear and she could only make the sounds of "mom". But it was enough to surprise Tian Tian.
"Oh, my baby, why are you calling mommy?" Tian Tian hugged An An affectionately.
An An also held Tian Tian's face, spit on it, pointed at the snacks on Tian Tian's coffee table, and shouted "ah ah" for food.
