Volume 1 Chapter 727 Good things happen to the Gu family
"My husband is in the army, and the kids are here. He's afraid he won't see them once a year."
"That's right. It's not that convenient for soldiers to go abroad."
Sheng Wanyan also wants her two sons to come to Country M. She has her own manor in Country M, and it would be nice for them to come here and see the world.
But...she couldn't bear to leave Gu Tingxiao. His wife and daughter were not around, and his son was gone too.
Sheng Wanyan doesn't know yet that the two little beasts are in the process of applying for the procedures to go abroad, and Gu Tingxiao is also battling wits and courage with his two sons.
———
Soon it was the 29th, Yi Yi and Gu Jingjing were both on vacation, and the two children ran out every day.
"Come here to mommy, one by one."
That night, Sheng Wanyan reminded the two children not to go out in the next few days. After all, Louis and Mei Di also need to celebrate the New Year!
"Mother."
"Yi Yi, Uncle Louis and Aunt Mei Di are going home for the New Year. They will come back when you return to school."
"You can't go out starting tomorrow. Mom will get off work early tomorrow and take you to celebrate the New Year."
"good."
Yi Yi readily agreed, and Sheng Wanyan touched her head with relief. Gu Jingjing had known about this matter for a long time, so she had no plans to go out tomorrow.
New Year's Eve is not just a holiday in Country M, it is a holiday all over the world. After all, tomorrow is January 1, 1982.
The new year has arrived and everything is moving in a good direction.
Sheng Wanyan called home the next day. She learned a lot about family matters from Gu Tingxiao, and there was a lot of good news about the Gu family.
Yang Dongxia gave birth to a daughter on December 17th. Grandpa Gu named her Gu Jingxing, and she looked like a sister to Gu Jingjing.
When giving birth, Gu Tinghao knew it was a girl but he didn't say anything. Besides, he was in love and with Yang Dongxia around, he didn't dare to show his little thoughts.
Although Gu's father and mother value sons, they also like girls. The Gu family is a military family and they need sons.
What's more, there are only four grandchildren, so I hope to have a boy, but a girl would be fine too, so that I can have another little girl to love.
When Sheng Wanyan knew the news, she asked Gu Tingxiao to give a pair of silver bracelets to Gu Jingxing. After all, she had given gifts to all the children in the family, so it was impossible for Gu Jingxing not to give one. So Gu Tingxiao did everything she was told.
There is another good news at home, that is, Gu Tingxiao got promoted! ! !
He was not old enough to be promoted to the position of brigade commander, but he had all the rights of a brigade commander and the highest military command at the first level.
Sheng Wanyan knew that he had made great achievements in battle, but she had underestimated her husband before.
At the age of 33, he possessed all the rights of a brigade commander, which others may not be able to do even at the age of 45.
Sheng Wanyan was so happy. She was so happy being an officer's wife. She would definitely reward Gu Tingxiao well next time.
Not only that, Gu's mother was also promoted from the team leader of the Finance Department to the deputy director of the Finance Department.
Gu's mother's father was the Minister of Finance. After Gu's mother was promoted to the position of Deputy Minister, he immediately applied for retirement pension.
With the existence of Gu's mother, if he does not retire, the Wen family will be a popular commodity to be slaughtered at will.
Besides, Grandpa Wen is at the age where he should retire. It was the country that needed him before, and now that the country has trained a lot of talents, he is relieved.
Seeing this, Sheng Wanyan also lamented that time passed so quickly. Originally, Pan Yue could not stay in Kyoto because Sheng Wanze’s household registration was not in Kyoto.
In order to stay in Kyoto, the Pan family made a lot of arrangements to allow Pan Yue's household registration to remain in Kyoto.
"My fourth brother wanted to bring his wife back to the compound to recuperate after childbirth, but grandpa refused."
When Sheng Wanyan heard what Gu Tingxiao said, she didn't want to say what Gu Tinghao was thinking. Didn't he understand that Brother Gu and Sister-in-law were the ones in charge of the compound?
Gu's father and mother didn't say anything, so why did his younger brother take the initiative to let his sister-in-law go to his eldest brother's house to recuperate after childbirth?
"Then my fourth sister-in-law might not feel comfortable either. After all, I was in the compound for confinement after my birth."
Sheng Wanyan really guessed it right. Compared to Yang Dongxia, Gu Tinghao felt even more uncomfortable.
"Wife, you went to the compound to recuperate because it's the New Year. Your grandparents, parents, brother, and sister-in-law all took the initiative to suggest it."
"Besides, I'm not the brainless Fourth Brother."
Sheng Wanyan was amused when she heard what Gu Tingxiao said. Why did she feel like there was something else behind what Gu Tingxiao said?
Isn’t Gu Tinghao just stupid? He has such good elders at home, but he doesn’t know how to cherish them. In fact, the more he has, the more unsatisfied he becomes.
"Comrade Gu Tingxiao, you are very proud."
"Yes, of course I am proud to have you."
"I'm so glad that I shamelessly married you."
Sheng Wanyan smiled. She knew that Gu Tingxiao actually had regrets in his heart, so he wanted a happy family and a wife who was fair to their children.
"You're just sweet-talking."
"How is Lai Lai Mau Mau lately?"
"Very good. Dad is so confused every day that he can't tell east from west and south from north. He is lawless at home."
Gu Tingxiao's tone was helpless, and Sheng Wanyan was also helpless when she heard Gu Tingxiao's complaints. This man was even jealous of his son.
"Did Mom go to take care of my fourth brother's wife?"
"Yes, I went to take care of my fourth brother's wife during her confinement."
After hearing this, Sheng Wanyan understood what was going on and continued to ask about Gu Tingxiao's visit to Country M.
"The performance will be on the 10th of next month. Have you completed the formalities for coming to Country M?"
"I am working on it."
Gu Tingxiao did not say that he was processing the formalities for his two sons and that he wanted to bring his two sons to Country M with him. He still planned to give his wife a surprise.
Knowing that their two grandsons were not with them, Gu's father and mother were even more reluctant to let them go and wished they could have them with them every day.
It’s a pity that Gu’s mother had to take care of Yang Dongxia during her confinement, so she could only visit her two grandchildren on her way home when she went shopping during the day.
"Are you not taking any vacation this year?"
"We'll see when the time comes."
Gu Tingxiao gave an uncertain answer, and Sheng Wanyan did not doubt it and let him take his vacation on his own.
"Then you make your own arrangements. When the time is up, I'm hanging up."
"good."
The couple's conversation ended here. Sheng Wanyan also had to go to work and take her two children out to celebrate the New Year.
Today, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs still asked all colleagues to leave work early to celebrate the New Year. There was a department dinner today, and Sheng Wanyan planned to take her two children and colleagues to celebrate the New Year together. It would be safer if there were more people.
Sheng Wanyan first drove her two children out to buy New Year gifts. Since she was with her children, she couldn't eat for free, and she had to bring gifts to other families during the New Year and other holidays.
"Mom, my dancing shoes are broken."
"I'll take you to buy two new pairs later."
She nodded and went to her colleague's house for dinner. She also bought some gifts for children and women.
Yesterday, my colleague's wife came to visit with their son, and naturally I had to give them some toys for the children.
