"You can't talk about him in front of Mo Bao anymore. He's getting better day by day and can understand everything you say.
He hated it most when people said bad things about him, especially when he was fat. Every time someone saw him, they would call him a fat boy.
And soon there will be two more children in the family. As the eldest, Mobao has no authority at all. If his younger siblings don't listen to him, how can he manage them? "
When Gu Qingbei thought about his boy's dark eyes looking at you, he really didn't look like a baby who knew nothing.
"Alas, it's still a little early. I originally planned to wait until Mobao was four or five years old before having a second child, but the second child came so suddenly that I was caught off guard.
Mobao is only two years older than his younger siblings, and he's still a baby himself. Can he accept having a second child in the family?
Gu Qingbei didn't expect that there would be a day when he would miscalculate, but he also didn't expect that the quality of small umbrellas in later generations would be so poor.
"It's okay, as long as we as parents can strike a good balance, not favoring the younger one, but definitely not neglecting the ink treasure.
I remember a saying: as long as you are good enough and loved enough, he will take good care of your younger siblings for you.
If the water bowl is not treated equally, it will also lead to the indifference of the relationship between brothers and sisters, and even make them feel worse than outsiders."
Gu Qingbi nodded. To be honest, he didn't know how to educate children either.
He himself is an only child, and has never had any brothers or sisters to share the love of his father and mother since he was a child.
Although his father and mother didn't have much time to spend with him, they never lacked material support.
Even if they themselves had nothing to eat or wear, as long as they had the ability, they would never treat him unfairly.
So he thought that as for children, you should give them whatever you have. They will grow up in a few years. When they grow up, they can train with the army and go to school when they should. There is no need to teach them much. This is how he grew up.
But he doesn't understand this aspect, as long as his wife understands it, it's fine. He can't be wrong if he does as she says, right?
One thing that is commendable about Gu Qingbei is that he listens to advice. When it comes to knowledge points that are unfamiliar to him, he is still willing to listen to what people who understand him say, and he will not be arrogant.
Looking at Mo Bao lying between the two of them, Gu Qingbei thought, even if there were a few more children in the family, how could they compare to the weight of Mo Bao in his heart. This was his first child. Although they would quarrel from time to time and neither of them would give in, it was only a matter between them.
He felt that even if he had a second child, he would not be partial. He still loved Mobao the most, but if he had a daughter, he would love her equally and he would not be partial.
Jiang Mengxue didn't know why he suddenly stared at Mo Bao's sleeping face. She just felt that the look in his eyes was so disgusting. Eh!
Turn off the lights and go to bed.
——————
Ever since Li Cuiying and Gu Zhenjiang came, Jiang Mengxue has nothing to do.
On the first day the two of them arrived, considering that they needed to have a good rest, they did not mention the pregnancy.
But there was no need to live at all. Li Cuiying realized it herself the next day.
The posture of a pregnant woman, walking with a slightly bulging belly, is so obvious that if she hasn't noticed it, then something must be wrong.
I was immediately surprised. Jiang Mengxue was not allowed to interfere in any matters at home. She was just allowed to have a good rest and go out for a walk when she was bored.
Jiang Mengxue didn't have to worry about Mo Bao, as Gu Zhenjiang took him out either horseback riding or to study at home.
Even though Mobao can't speak, he knows quite a few words.
Gu Zhenjiang took into consideration what Mobao needed to learn, so he bought a lot of books suitable for young children before coming.
Whenever I have time, I bring my calligraphy home to study.
At first, Jiang Mengxue thought that children would definitely not like learning, but she didn't expect that Mobao was quite interested. As long as the adults taught seriously, he would follow and watch attentively. Of course, you would know whether he understood it or not.
That day, Han Siyue got off work and happened to see Jiang Mengxue peeling peanuts at the door. She didn't even go home but came over excitedly. It was obvious that she had some gossip to tell.
It was exactly what Jiang Mengxue thought.
Han Siyue's face was full of gossip, and she said excitedly, "Sister-in-law, do you remember that before Uncle Gu and his men arrived, a car drove into the family compound? Do you know whose car it was?"
Jiang Mengxue certainly still remembered what happened that night, but she hadn't been out in the past two days, so she didn't know who was in the car. She signaled Han Siyue to continue with her eyes.
Han Siyue simply likes gossip and can talk happily without anyone's support.
"The people in that car are our General Qi's family, his wife and youngest daughter. I heard they have two sons who are still in school and are staying at their grandfather's house in the capital.
Our commander's wife comes from a good family. I heard her father was a high-ranking official, so once she arrived at the family compound, there was no one she could look up to. Even Commander Qi spoke carefully in front of her.
When Han Siyue mentioned the senior official, she pointed her finger upwards, indicating that it was indeed very high up.
Jiang Mengxue became a little curious after hearing this.
I remember hearing Gu Qingbei say before that this General Qi has connections from the capital, and they are not on the same side as the Gu family, so it is enough for them to get along with him as long as they can appear to be okay.
So the so-called relationship is his wife's family? His own father-in-law?
But these are not what she cares about. Many interpersonal relationships need to be kept in mind only if they are useful.
According to Gu Qingbei, as for Commander Qi's family, you can spend a few years with them at most, and it will be fine if you can just stay close to them. It's even fine if you don't have any contact at all.
So she didn't care much about the commander's wife coming over.
If other military wives come to visit, she will just go with them, as long as she can look presentable.
“Everything about our family compound is good except that the children cannot go to school.
Therefore, many families did not bring their children who were going to school here. The oldest was only seven or eight years old and could be sent back to their hometown to go to school next year.
I don’t know if we can open a school here, otherwise the family members will definitely have to go back to their hometown to send their children to school.”
When the child goes back to his hometown to go to school, there will always be someone at home. How can a mother trust others? She will definitely go back alone.
Just like Mo Bao's situation, he is young, but as long as he is of school age, Jiang Mengxue would definitely be worried about him being alone, even though he has his second uncle and second aunt taking care of him.
"These things had to be done one by one. First, we established the family compound, then we set up a supply and marketing cooperative, and then we had to find ways to solve the survival problems of the military wives.
Now there is another issue of sending a child to school, so let’s deal with them one by one.
I think the military leaders have been busy lately, and just when they're free, they've found a lot of things to do."
This is also the truth. Han Siyue has the most say because Lu Zhengming is in charge of these matters and is busy all day long.
Not only is he responsible for family matters, but he also has to lead the ideological and political work of the troops. There are so many things to do that he wishes he had eight hands.
