Volume 1 Chapter 126 Arrival in Kyoto 1
After the family had their meal, Pan Yue and Sheng Wanze cleaned up and let them have a good sleep and rest.
Gu Tingxiao didn't clean up much. Sheng Wanyan saw him out the door and watched him get into the car before going back.
When Gu Tingxiao returned to the military compound, his mother asked him all kinds of questions. She had also wanted to go pick up her mother-in-law today.
I didn't go because I had to go to work, and I was afraid of disturbing my mother-in-law's rest on my first day.
She has already taken a day off for tomorrow and will take her mother-in-law's family to visit the Great Wall, and the day after tomorrow to visit the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square.
"How is it? Has my third daughter-in-law and her family arrived?"
Father Gu, Grandpa Gu, and Grandma Gu were also staring at him. Gu Tingxiao felt his scalp tingling from being stared at by his elders.
"We're here. We've had our meal and are resting."
"That's good. Get up early tomorrow and take my in-laws around Kyoto."
"Mom, I know."
"You know nothing. Your main task is to make the third daughter-in-law have fun. Otherwise, she will despise you before the wedding."
Gu's mother always felt that the third child had tricked Sheng Wanyan into being his wife, otherwise why would such an outstanding child like Sheng Wanyan fall in love with this ice cube.
In her heart, she really always felt sorry for the Sheng family. When Sheng Wanyan married into the family, she would definitely treat her well.
Her third son had committed a sin, and as a mother, she could only try her best to atone for his sins.
"Is the third brother's wedding room ready?"
Gu Tingxiao's wedding room was prepared by Grandma Gu. Everything was replaced with new ones just so that he could get married.
From this, we can see that the Gu family has been worried about him getting married, and the standards for his future wife have been lowered again and again.
From being well-matched and intellectual, it has been reduced to just being a woman with good character.
"Everything has been prepared according to the standards for the eldest and fourth sons' weddings, there are no mistakes."
Grandma Gu nodded. With so many children in the family, it is inevitable to have some concerns, especially after the children get married, things will become more complicated.
"That's fine. Have you given out all the invitations?"
"Yes, we have. We have sent invitations to every household in the compound, including the chef."
"Well, pay more attention to it and don't let others look down on the third grandson's wife."
Grandpa Gu's last words made everyone in the family look at each other. Sheng Wanyan's family was indeed easily ostracized by people in the circle.
For them, a new bride who could marry into a military compound from the city was marrying up.
I don’t know what the Gu family was thinking. They actually agreed to this marriage. Isn’t this pushing Gu Tingxiao into the abyss and ruining Gu Tingxiao’s future?
His brother and sister's in-laws are both very supportive and can help with their careers, but this one from the city would be lucky if he doesn't hold them back.
Although they looked down on the new daughter-in-law of the Sheng family, they had no choice but to continue to save face in front of the Gu family.
They want to see how the Gu family will regret bringing back a troublemaker.
The young girls in the compound who had been staring at Gu Tingxiao felt very uncomfortable when they knew that he was going to get married.
Another promising young man in the compound got married, and they had one less candidate for a spouse.
If they had known that Gu Tingxiao had such low standards, they would not have continued to pretend to be ladies.
Now, the best husband you had your eyes on has become someone else's.
It’s too late to regret and do anything now, as others are about to have their wedding banquets.
All they can do is regret.
The next day, Gu's mother went to the small courtyard to look for the Sheng family early in the morning. When she arrived at the small courtyard, the Sheng family had just finished breakfast.
"Mother-in-law, here I come!!!"
Gu's mother arrived before anyone knew it. When Sheng's mother heard the sound, she immediately put down what she was holding and ran out to greet Gu's mother.
"Mother-in-law! I finally waited for you."
The two mothers immediately held hands and expressed their longing for their child with a smile.
"Oh, I've been back in Kyoto for the past few months. I've been missing the days when I chatted with my mother-in-law in Chengdu. I finally see her again."
"That's right, I think about you every day."
"Hurry up, I'm here to take you out to play. I've brought two cars with me."
Mother Gu was so excited that she kept pulling Mother Sheng out. Seeing how excited she was, Mother Sheng quickly stopped her.
"Mother-in-law, wait, I'll go get the bag."
"Hurry up, hurry up, grandpa, grandma, and father-in-law, Yan'er, hurry up and pack up, let's go out and play."
"Third brother, go help your grandparents get in the car."
Gu Tingxiao first helped Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng into the car and sat them down. Mother Gu had a guard and was in the same car with Father and Mother Sheng.
Sheng Wanyan, Gu Tingxiao and two old people were in a car, and the first place they set off was the Great Wall to eat Peking duck.
Although Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng are a bit old, they are in very strong shape thanks to Sheng Wanyan's care during this period.
Climb up slowly, it's not a big problem. There are really a lot of people coming to climb the Great Wall, but most of them are young people.
Old people basically don’t come to climb the Great Wall. Those who don’t have the physical strength usually go to Tiananmen Square.
But Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng are different. It’s their first time in Kyoto and they are full of energy and motivation.
They climbed for more than three hours without taking any rest except to drink some water.
If Sheng Wanyan wasn't in good physical condition, she would not be able to keep up with the speed of the two old men.
Gu Tingxiao stood behind her and put his hand on her back so that she could feel more relaxed.
"Hurry up, Yan'er, the scenery is so beautiful."
Grandma Sheng urged Sheng Wanyan, and Sheng Wanyan really admired the physical strength of the two old people.
"The view from up here is really good. You can see the whole of Kyoto."
Sheng Wanyan finally climbed up and drank several sips of water before she came to her senses.
"Yan'er needs to exercise more."
Grandpa Sheng glanced at her, and Sheng Wanyan quickly took two steps back and shook her head to refuse. She didn't want to exercise.
Being diligent is not her life goal. Her life goal is to live a comfortable life... and to be bad.
"My grandparents are in good health."
Mother Gu thought about her two elderly parents in the family. Let alone climbing the Great Wall, just taking a walk around Tiananmen Square would already be the limit.
The two old men were injured when they were young while fighting in the war, and they often had to see a doctor for treatment, otherwise they would not be able to withstand the cold weather.
"Our bodies are all taken care of by Yan'er. When Yan'er was in school, she loved reading books on this subject and also learned massage techniques."
"We get massages every day, and we all sleep much more comfortably."
"Really? Yan'er also has medical knowledge?"
When Mother Gu heard this, her eyes lit up. The third son’s wife really was full of surprises.
"I used to like reading it, so I would give my family members massages according to what was in the book, and I would also cook some medicinal food according to the steps in the book."
When Mother Gu heard this, she nodded. She really didn't expect that the third son's wife had some abilities.
With her by the side of the third brother from now on, I can feel at ease.
