Extra Chapter 6
It’s not that Liu Jialing wants to be a good mother-in-law, but she is afraid that Chu Hong will eat the chicken she bought.
Gu Ci said calmly, "You're welcome, Aunt Liu. This is my home."
Liu Jialing was choked and speechless.
When Gu Haihua came back, he saw the strange yet familiar Gu Ci, but he didn't dare to call out to him. It was Gu Ci who called out to him first with a gentle smile: "Father, I'm back."
Shanghai is a big city, and I started calling them mom and dad many years ago.
As soon as you hear the title "father", you know there is something wrong.
Gu Haihua's mouth twitched. Seeing the beautiful young lady next to Gu Ci, he was still a little cautious and said vaguely: "Why didn't you bring my two eldest grandsons with you when you came back?"
He is a man who cares a lot about face. It was because he wanted face and a good reputation that he was threatened by Gu Ci and sent him twenty yuan every month because he was afraid that he would come back and say something wrong.
He was afraid that others would know that his eldest son was a failure.
Doesn't that mean that he, as a father, did not teach his son well?
Therefore, even though he looked down on the wife that Gu Ci married in the countryside, he did not think of him abandoning her husband and children in order to return to the city.
Although there are many such cases nowadays, he saw an abandoned country woman in the hospital, who brought her brothers and relatives from her hometown, and beat the man's family half to death, and now they are all lying in the hospital in good health?
He was also a spectator at the time, but now seeing Gu Ci's behavior, he was worried that Gu Ci's country wife would come to the hospital to make trouble?
He didn't want to lie in bed.
He was afraid that Gu Ci had deceived the beautiful female comrade next to him with sweet words, so he deliberately said that his eldest grandson came to remind them.
"Okay, we'll bring the two children home the day after tomorrow." Gu Ci said casually, "By the way, this is my wife Chu Hong. We were lucky enough to catch up with the college entrance examination last year, and now they are both studying at Shencheng University."
Gu Haihua suspected that he had heard it wrongly: "Shencheng University?"
I really didn’t realize that Gu Ci is so promising? He couldn't believe it.
"Yes." Gu Ci smiled at him again: "My grandparents came back last year. They were specially hired and are now professors at Shencheng University."
Gu Haihua had also heard that many teachers who had encountered accidents were invited back, and many others were left sleeping in the countryside forever, never to return.
He originally thought that his ex-father-in-law and mother-in-law were old and had been living a life of luxury, so there was a high probability that they would never come back. However, he did not expect that his ex-father-in-law and mother-in-law were so resilient and could return to the university to become professors.
In this cold winter, he was so stimulated that sweat broke out on his forehead.
He said dryly, "That's a good thing. I'll go visit them tomorrow."
"Grandpa and grandma will definitely be happy to see you." Gu Ci seemed to not be able to hear his insincerity: "There is even better news. My uncle and aunt, Chu Yan and Chu Chu are all back."
"We are now living in the grandparents' dormitory with our two sons," Gu Ci sighed, "It's really a bit crowded. We want to bring the children back to live with us."
Liu Jialing, who was carrying the dishes, heard what he said, her face changed, and she hurriedly said, "There are only four rooms in the house, I'm afraid there won't be enough room for you?"
After saying that, he was afraid that Gu Haihua would think that he was not good for his ex-wife's son, so he forced a smile and added: "Besides, my home is far from the school. It takes more than an hour to go there and back. Why not rent a house near the university?"
She regarded her home as her own territory, so naturally she didn't want them to come back.
Now we can only spend money to avoid disaster.
Chu Hong also laughed: "It's okay, Auntie. We are still young. Ten miles is nothing."
He looked at Gu Ci with suspicion again: "Didn't you say that you had a house in Shencheng that your mother left for you? When are we going to go see it? My parents, brother-in-law, uncles, aunts and cousins can also come and stay for a few days."
"You're not kidding me, are you? Or are you just bragging?"
Although it is impossible for these people to really come, it does not stop her from saying something first.
Sure enough, after hearing Chu Hong's words, Gu Haihua and Liu Jialing's faces turned bad.
If Grandpa Chu and the others couldn't come back, Gu Haihua could still righteously say that the house belonged to him.
After all, sometimes, if you tell too many lies, you can even deceive yourself.
But when the house was being built, he was working in the hospital, and it was his brother-in-law who helped with the construction.
He now suspected that the Chu family was also secretly wary of him, otherwise the house certificates would all have his ex-wife's name on them.
Now that the old matter was brought up again, Gu Haihua's first reaction was that he must not fall out with the other party, otherwise his reputation would be ruined.
He immediately said, "This is indeed the house that Yunxiao helped us build when Xuanxuan and I got married. It is naturally your home as well. Let's squeeze in together later."
Originally, the doctors’ dormitory was a tube-shaped building. Gu Ci’s mother thought it was too crowded, so the Chu family bought the old house for them and rebuilt a new one.
In fact, the hospital also expanded the dormitory building a few years ago, but it was only a two-hall building, which was considered spacious and comfortable for others.
But they felt it was too crowded deep down, and in order to have a good reputation, Gu Haihua said he would give his chance to draw a room number to other colleagues.
Now he felt very regretful. If he had known that all the Chu family members could come back safely, he would have kept the house. Now he wouldn't have to worry about not having enough space at home.
He also thought far ahead. The Chu family was quite powerful back then, and they knew a lot of people from all walks of life, so he was a little afraid of being harmed.
Thinking of this, he looked at Gu Ci and Chu Hong again, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm glad that Chu Hong is good-looking, and I'm also glad that I've given Gu Cihui living expenses for the past ten years.
Although he had not wanted to remit the money in the first place, now because of those remittances, the Chu family could not say that they ignored Gu Ci.
Therefore, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked gently, "Are you used to everything in college? Is the subsidy enough?"
The reason Gu Ci came back this time was not to reconnect with his father, but to continue to cheat on his father.
He immediately complained about the expense of raising two sons, and how they all had to eat, and how expensively he had to buy them clothes and shoes just to look good.
Anyway, the meaning is the same: there is not enough money and tickets.
Gu Ci finally sighed: "Especially the two little ones, they are spoiled by my father-in-law and mother-in-law. They want to eat meat, eggs and noodles every day. They cry and make a fuss when they are not satisfied. They also like to fight, and they don’t like to be clean and noisy..."
After that, he smiled helplessly at them and said, "Please bear with me when the time comes."
In my mind, I have already pictured Gu Haihua and Liu Jialing as two naughty, unhygienic, greedy and playful children.
Nowadays, you can see boys playing tricks, fighting and crying everywhere, and you can also hear the sound of a boy crying loudly in someone's house, like a devil's sound piercing the ears.
The two looked at each other and began to back out.
Even though Gu Haihua wanted to see his grandson, the prerequisite was that he had to be a well-behaved, sensible, smart and obedient grandson.
There can't be much affection between grandparents and grandchildren if they have never met each other.
