Volume 1 Chapter 809 Gu Family Moves Upward
"Okay, call Xiaona, and the three of us will go tomorrow."
"good."
Mother Gu comforted Grandma Gu, and waited for Sister-in-law Gu to come home from get off work and told her that she would go get her hair done the next day.
"Okay, I have a day off tomorrow, let's go out and get our hair done and go shopping."
"Buy some paintbrushes and stuff for Jingjing and send them to her. Last time, my third sister-in-law came back and told me that Jingjing was going to participate in a painting competition. I was even more nervous than she was."
Mrs. Gu touched her heart. Her daughter was participating in the competition, and neither she nor Brother Gu were with her. She didn't know whether her daughter could perform well.
Will you be afraid, nervous, or lack confidence?
These are all what Mrs. Gu worries about. If she could go to Country M, she would pack her luggage and buy a ticket tomorrow.
"Don't worry about it. Yan'er and Tingxiao are here. You and the boss can't leave the country."
A leader of a military region and a leader of an education bureau. Without an order from the state, there is no way they can go abroad these days.
Mrs. Gu sighed. The more she thought about it, the worse she felt. So she decided to buy more things and send them over to reduce the burden on her third brother's wife.
That night, Gu Tinghao brought Yang Dongxia and Gu Jingxing back to the compound for dinner. Today was Grandma Gu’s birthday!
Mrs. Gu and her mother were preparing dinner. Gu Tinghao was holding some supplements in his hand. Yang Dongxia came to the compound with her daughter in her arms. Father and mother Gu didn't say anything when they saw them.
They knew that at their age, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu naturally wanted the younger generations in the family to be well, and it was a rare opportunity for the family to have a meal together.
"It's winter now, so you don't have to worry about catching a cold if you bring Jingxing out."
Grandma Gu glanced at her great-granddaughter and saw that Gu Jingxing was sleeping, wrapped up thickly by Gu Tinghao and his wife. She felt relieved.
She and Grandpa Gu have always had a clear distinction between gratitude and resentment in their hearts, and this child must not be implicated in the mistakes made by Gu Tinghao.
"Grandma, Dad, Big Brother."
Yang Dongxia greeted them, and Grandma Gu nodded. Father Gu and Big Brother Gu also nodded without saying anything. Grandma Gu asked her to put Gu Jingxing on the bed to rest first.
"Jingxing is only three months old. Don't take her out to run around in the middle of winter."
"Grandma, don't worry, we don't usually carry Jingxing out."
Grandma Gu nodded. It would be a very dangerous thing if a three-month-old baby got sick.
"By the way, did you come here by train?"
"yes."
Gu Tinghao and Yang Dongxia didn’t have a car. When Gu Tinghao had a good relationship with his family, his father and grandfather would ask their guards to pick him up.
Now neither of them pays attention to Gu Tinghao. If there is no car, then take the tram. If all else fails, then walk.
"Sit down and have a snack."
"Grandma, I'm going to help mom and sister-in-law."
Grandma Gu nodded. She was satisfied with her granddaughter-in-law Yang Dongxia, who was not trouble-making and had brains. She also cared about her stepdaughter Gu Jingjing.
No matter what you think in your heart, as long as you do a good job on the surface, that's enough.
At least Gu Tinghao, as his biological father, can't even pretend to be nice. Yang Dongxia is at least a smart person, and he is willing to be nice to her.
"Go ahead."
While preparing dinner, Mother Gu and Sister-in-law Gu were talking about getting their hair done tomorrow. The two were discussing what style they wanted to have.
"Mom, how about I just do the big wave like last time?"
"Okay, you can't be too exaggerated at work. That one suits you. It's gentle and generous."
Mrs. Gu smiled and nodded. She thought so too. She should not do her work too exaggeratedly, otherwise she would just be an ornament in the Education Bureau.
"What do you want me to do? Get an afro?"
Mother Gu wanted to have an afro, but Aunt Gu stopped her immediately: "Mom, you have to go to work too, isn't this afro not good?"
"Then I'll be that Hong Kong movie star. What's that called? Right! Wool curls!"
"I cut my hair to the neck and made it into a wool curl."
Mrs. Gu has already imagined what her mother would look like with that hairstyle, with her hair cut short and curled. Her mother has a good temperament, and the attire suits her age and daily life.
"Sure, Mom, you try."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so excited in their discussion that they didn't even notice Yang Dongxia came in. It was Yang Dongxia who called for help.
"Mom, sister-in-law."
When Mother Gu and Sister-in-law Gu heard the voice, they turned around, and when they saw her come in, they stopped talking and started chatting with her with a smile.
"Xiao Xia is here."
"Xiao Xia, where is Jing Xing?"
"The Crystal Star child is asleep, I put him in the guest room to rest."
Mother Gu nodded. The first floor contained Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu's rooms and a guest room, while the rooms upstairs were for Father Gu and Mother Gu and Big Brother Gu's family.
Yang Dongxia didn't dare to go upstairs, let alone go to the two old people's room, so she could only put her in the guest room.
"That's fine. The child didn't catch a cold, did he?"
"No, Tinghao and I were wrapped up well, so we weren't exposed to the wind."
Mother Gu nodded. Seeing Gu Tinghao and his family of three coming, she thought of Gu Jingjing who was far away in Country M.
"By the way, mom and sister-in-law are going to get their hair done tomorrow?"
"Yes, it's your grandma's birthday today, and your grandpa is mad at her, so I'm taking her to get her hair done."
"You're going to work tomorrow, right?"
"Yes, I have class tomorrow."
Mother Gu nodded, and gave up the idea of asking her to join the group. It is not easy to be a university teacher, and she dare not mislead the students.
"You and Lao Si have worked hard, so eat more tonight."
Yang Dongxia smiled and nodded. When she heard that Gu's mother did not call her, she did not go forward to embarrass herself.
Who made her choose Gu Tinghao...
"Hey, I have to trouble mom and sister-in-law today."
"What the hell."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were busy chatting in the kitchen. From time to time, Mother Gu and Sister-in-law Gu would talk about what they needed to buy for Gu Jingjing tomorrow.
"Mom, sister-in-law, Tinghao and I bought some school supplies and clothes for Jingjing. We would like to trouble you to send them to Jingjing."
"Your eldest brother and I have already bought everything for Jingjing. You can save the money and buy more for Jingxing later."
"You don't have to worry about Jingjing. Your elder brother and I will take care of her."
"Sister-in-law, please accept it. Tinghao and I brought it here."
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she couldn't refuse. The things had been bought and brought over. If she said anything more, she would be disliked.
"Okay, I'll send it over when the time comes."
"Sorry to bother you, sister-in-law."
Mrs. Gu nodded, and the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and grandpa Gu prepared dinner. Grandpa Gu also went home happily. When he got home and saw Gu Tinghao was there, he rarely did not scold him.
“Hahahahahahahahaha!”
Everyone heard Grandpa Gu's booming laughter before he even entered the house, and Grandma Gu knew something good was going to happen as soon as she heard it.
"What's wrong? So happy?"
"Our Gu family has married a great granddaughter-in-law! How can I not be happy?"
"Is it Yan'er?"
Grandma Gu thought of Sheng Wanyan first. After all, the other two granddaughters-in-law lived under her nose, and she knew everything about them.
