When Gu Jiuyan thought of that scene, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Once they grow up, we will throw them out so that they won't bother us all day long."
"That's your son? Are you willing to give him up?"
"It's okay to send those with thick skin and flesh out there to suffer a little. That's how their fathers got through it."
When Shen Yunshu heard this, he shed a tear of sympathy for his son in his heart. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a misfortune to have a father like Gu Jiuyan.
Shen Yunshu's hair was long and thick, and Gu Jiuyan had to change the water three times before he could rinse the foam off her head.
There were no hair dryers in those days. If you went to bed with wet long hair, you would definitely have a headache when you woke up the next morning, not to mention that Shen Yunshu was still in the confinement period.
Gu Jiuyan took two dry towels and dried his wet hair bit by bit. He kept doing this until very late, and only then did Shen Yunshu fall asleep.
the next day.
When Shen Yunshu got up early to feed her baby, Grandma Gu noticed something was wrong with her: "Shushu, did you wash your hair last night?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes instantly focused on Shen Yunshu's hair.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Shen Yunshu, who wanted to hide it, nodded in a perfunctory manner: "My scalp was too itchy, I couldn't help it."
Gu Jiuyan happened to come back at this time. After seeing the situation in the room, he immediately stood in front of his wife and said, "I insisted on giving my wife a bath and washing her hair. You can scold me if you want."
Shen Yunshu looked at the stupid teammate in front of him, and a feeling of powerlessness swept over his body.
She deliberately concealed the fact that she had taken a shower, but this guy actually turned around and sold her out. She took a shower and washed her hair, and considering the personalities of her family members, they would surely be furious.
"Shushu doesn't understand, and you are fooling around with her. She is in confinement now. What if she catches a cold? She will suffer from confinement diseases when she is old." Mother Gu stood on tiptoe in anger and flicked Gu Jiuyan on the head.
The others also looked at Gu Jiuyan with condemnation.
Shen Yunshu couldn't bear it any longer: "I wanted to wash it myself, it has nothing to do with Gu Jiuyan, if you want to scold me, scold me."
How could the people from the Gu and Chen families bear to scold Chen Yunshu? Now she is the treasure of the Gu and Chen families.
Grandma Gu sighed softly, "Shushu, don't be so sneaky next time. If you really want to take a bath and wash your hair, tell us and I'll make you some mugwort water."
In the end, she compromised. Her granddaughter-in-law was a beautiful and clean girl before she gave birth to a child. It was really unfair to her to let her take such a long time to wash her hair and take a bath.
"Grandma, you didn't lie?"
"I didn't lie to you."
Shen Yunshu was happy, and the others in the room didn't have the heart to interrupt her, so they waited until they left before they dared to speak.
"Mom, Jiuyan is making trouble, how can you join in the fun? Shushu's health is the most important thing now."
"Sheng Lian, the happiness of my granddaughter-in-law is the most important thing. As for the rest, we just need to be careful. Close the doors and windows tightly, and dry them after washing. Nothing will happen."
"But……"
"In-laws, just listen to your aunt. Shushu's happiness is the most important thing." It was Shen's mother who spoke. When she thought of her daughter's disappointed expression yesterday when she heard that she couldn't take a bath, her heart ached.
She wants her daughter to be happy for the rest of her life, even after giving birth to a child and becoming a mother.
Mrs. Gu was not a bad mother-in-law. She said that because she felt sorry for her daughter-in-law. Now that she saw that both female comrades in the family had mentioned it, she agreed without hesitation.
As for the mugwort used for bathing, there was none at home, so Grandpa Gu and Grandpa Shen were entrusted with the important task of going to several nearby brigades to collect mugwort.
At noon, Wan Xinyu came by car and brought home some bad news. Old Mrs. Lin accidentally fell while going to the toilet at night and is currently receiving treatment in the hospital.
When Shen's mother heard the bad news, she panicked for a moment: "When did this happen? Why didn't you call us to tell us?"
"On the one hand, I'm afraid you'll worry, and on the other hand, I can't leave here without someone. Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin won't let me tell you."
Elderly people are most afraid of bumps and collisions. Shen Yunshu spoke to comfort the shaky mother Shen:
"Mom, you and my dad should ask for leave from your boss and go back to Beijing to look after grandpa and grandma. You don't have to worry about the family. With so many of us, we can definitely take care of the kids.
If anything happens, call your family. It would be best if the situation is stable and you can bring your grandma and grandpa over to live with you."
It was not until this moment that Shen Yunshu realized how heavy the burden was on herself and Gu Jiuyan. She was an only daughter and Gu Jiuyan was an only son. They had nine elderly parents to take care of and six hungry children to raise.
The only thing that could solve this problem was money, and Shen Yunshu developed an urgent desire to make money.
Mother Gu supported Mother Shen, who was about to fall, and comforted her:
"Shushu is right. Let's go to the hospital first to see what's going on. I'll call Lao Gu later and ask him to help contact the best doctor in Beijing to treat Auntie."
Mother Shen forced herself to cheer up and asked someone to notify Father Shen who was at work.
When Mr. Shen heard that his mother-in-law was in trouble, he rushed home quickly. Before he could say anything, he was dragged to the car by Mrs. Shen.
When Grandpa Gu and Grandpa Shen came back from the countryside after collecting mugwort, they heard that Grandma Lin had fallen. They were both very worried.
But the family needs someone to stay at home now, so worrying is unnecessary. They can only pray in their hearts that Old Mrs. Lin is safe.
At noon today, Wan Xinyu was the chef. He could make anything he touched into a masterpiece. He even made an ordinary pot of noodles into the standard of a five-star hotel.
However, everyone was worried about Mrs. Lin's injury and had no appetite, so the pot of noodles made by Wan Xinyu was left over for the first time.
Grandpa Gu said, "In my opinion, Old Man Lin and the other two are old and have no one to take care of them. When Old Lady Lin is discharged from the hospital, they can move to the family compound. Then our three families can get together and live happily together."
"There are no extra rooms in the house." Gu Jiuyan pointed out the problem directly.
He and his neighboring father-in-law's house have a total of four bedrooms, which are all occupied now. If the children grow up in the future, it will probably be even more crowded.
"I'll find a way." Grandpa Gu took the responsibility of solving the problem on himself.
When Old Man Lin moves in here, he'll have someone to play chess with, so he has a little selfish motive.
Grandpa Gu worked very quickly. I don’t know what method he used, but he built a small courtyard less than a hundred meters away from the Gu family’s house, with the same layout.
Grandpa Gu took Wan Xinyu and Gu Jiuyan, who had just finished work, to clean up. Grandpa Shen also came uninvited with a broom to help clean up.
