The two of them told Ge Huiyun not to forget to eat the braised dishes they brought, and then took An An on the bus.
I went home and played with An An for a while, and then coaxed An An to sleep.
Then the two of them had to clean up the chores at home, and the food they had eaten this afternoon had not yet been cleaned up.
The coffee table was still piled with the garbage from their afternoon meal.
After they cleaned up the garbage, they washed all the used dishes and put them in the cupboard. Then they took a shower and went back to bed.
The Chinese New Year is almost here, and Gu Zhao's unit finally has a holiday. These days, Gu Zhao takes Tian Tian and An An out to play every day. They don't walk very far, because the weather is too cold now, and they are afraid that An An will get frozen if they walk too far. So they just go to the small park near home to accompany An An to grab some snow and look at the branches frozen in it, which is called rime.
An An is very happy just to go out for a walk every day.
An An is now three months away from turning one year old. He is becoming more and more clever and can stand steadily now. When he has nothing to do at home, he will stand there holding things and try to take steps. However, after falling several times, he finally learned his lesson and is no longer in a hurry to walk.
Tian Tian was worried before that An An might have fallen a few times, and after being hurt, she would become afraid of falling again. But later she found that An An was more cautious. She would prepare for a long time before taking each step. After taking a step, she would stand there and rest for a while before taking the next step.
After seeing this, Tian Tian felt relieved. As long as she didn't have any fear about learning to walk, it would be fine.
She didn't have to worry about An An learning to walk, but Tian Tian was still a little worried about other things.
Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, she is struggling with whether to go back home for the New Year. Personally, she wants to go home. Although this is also her home, it is not as good as staying with her parents.
But she was a little conflicted because An An was still too young and it was quite tiring for her to take the train.
Especially when the weather outside is too cold and taking the train is inconvenient, she might get sick or feel unwell.
She told Gu Zhao about her concerns, and Gu Zhao didn't hesitate after listening to her.
"If you want to go home, then let's go back. I'll go back with you during the New Year. Then it won't be a problem for the two of us to take care of An An." Gu Zhao said.
Before they got married, they had agreed that they would celebrate the New Year once here and once at Tian Tian's home, or they could go back to their respective homes to celebrate the New Year.
But the weather outside is so cold now, it is unrealistic to let Tian Tian go home with the child alone, and Gu Zhao is also worried.
"Are your parents okay? Grandpa passed away, and it's just the two of them during the New Year. It sounds like they'll be lonely, which isn't good," said Tian Tian.
If Gu Zhao had a brother or sister, Tian Tian would not say anything, but the key point is that Gu Zhao has no brothers or sisters, he is the only son. If this son does not spend the New Year with the old couple, then the old couple will only have the two of them. Just thinking about it makes Tian Tian feel bad.
"How about I go back by myself? You send me and An An to the car here, and I'll call Tian Zhuo and Tian Mu to pick me up. I'll just get a little tired in the car and look after the children, and you don't have to worry about anything else." Tian Tian said.
She wanted to go back to see her parents, and she had no reason to ask Gu Zhao to go back with her. Gu Zhao should stay at home with his parents.
Gu Zhao is like this now. He is worried about Tian Tian and his parents. He wishes he could be split into two.
"If it really doesn't work, I will send you back to your home, and then I will take a bus back before the New Year." Gu Zhao said.
"Then it will be so hard for you." Tian Tian also disagreed.
Taking the bus is a tiring job, even though their two homes are quite close and it would probably only take a day to get there.
But it was a torture on the way. Every time they came back from Tian Tian's house, they felt hollowed out and could lie in bed all day without thinking about doing anything. Tian Tian was reluctant to let Gu Zhao suffer this.
"Don't worry, I'm already an adult, just send me to the car, and then Tian Zhuo and Tian Mu will pick me up at the platform. It's no big deal."
The two people were struggling with this matter. Tian Tian thought to herself that it would be great if the high-speed rail was available at this time. It would only take a few hours to get there. There was really no need to struggle with this and that like they were doing now.
Even if I go home, the worst that can happen is that I'll be a little tired, and I can get back in a day.
Neither of them could make a decision. One was worried about the mother and daughter, and the other felt sorry for the other party being too tired. As a result, they were hesitant and finally called Ge Huiyun and the others to resolve the matter.
Ge Huiyun asked Tian Tian to ask her parents if they would mind if the two of them went back with them to celebrate the New Year together. This way, they could go back without having to worry so much. They were both parents, and they understood Tian Tian's desire to go back for the New Year. After all, Ge Huiyun also married into the family from outside, and they felt that if they had a daughter who was married, they would also hope that she could come back for the New Year.
Tian Tian was very happy to hear this, and she immediately called her parents to ask about it. She thought her parents would also be very happy, but unexpectedly, she got a scolding.
Lin Meiyu and Tian Lisong felt that Tian Tian was a little willful. Just because she wanted to go home for the New Year, she made trouble for her father-in-law and brought her mother-in-law back with her.
They are not young anymore. What if they get sick after going back and forth like this? If they don’t want to come back for the New Year, then they don’t have to. After the New Year, Tian Tian and the others will go back too. There is no need to go through all this trouble before the New Year.
Tian Tian cried after hanging up the phone. After hearing what her mother said, Tian Tian felt that she was too ignorant, but she just felt very aggrieved. Why was it so difficult for her to go home for the New Year? She just wanted to spend the New Year with her parents, but she ended up struggling here for several days and finally came up with a solution, but it didn't work.
When Gu Zhao saw Tian Tian crying, he quickly sat next to her to comfort her. Although he did not hear what her parents said to her, when he saw Tian Tian crying after she hung up the phone, he knew that something must have made Tian Tian feel uncomfortable.
"What's wrong? Tell me if there's anything wrong. We are husband and wife, so we should face anything together. Don't cry there alone. It makes me feel bad seeing you." Gu Zhao hugged Tian Tian and comforted her.
