As soon as she entered the house, He's mother's expression changed. She threw some cloth and other things into the room, and immediately took the dishes prepared by He's grandmother and her husband and went into the kitchen to start cooking.
He Wanqing, who followed closely and wanted to go in to help, was chased out by He's mother. The reason was simple: she was pregnant with twins and it was safer to wait for the food to be ready.
After He's mother was busy for a while, Aunt He and a few others, who had returned from work early, also came over.
After instructing their wives to go home and cook lunch, the three of them stayed in the kitchen to help He's mother prepare lunch.
Uncle He, who came to pick up the people, seemed to have planned it all. Lunch was ready in the house, and Aunt He and others had just returned home for dinner when he arrived with Father He and Grandpa Gu. They were also accompanied by Gu Chengshi and others who had arrived on their way to work.
"Come in, old man." Mother He stood at the door to welcome Grandpa Gu.
Grandpa He and the other three who were chatting with He Wanqing on the kang immediately got off the kang when they heard what happened: "Take your time, don't be in a hurry, we'll go first." After Grandma He finished speaking, she and Grandma Shen and the other two had already left the house.
When He Wanqing, who had finally put on her shoes, walked to the door, a group of people had already come into the house.
"Didn't I tell you to get off the bed slowly? Why are you in such a hurry? Don't tie your stomach."
Seeing her anxious look, Grandma He glanced at Grandpa Gu who was smiling happily and said.
Grandma He's words not only explained why she came out now, but also told Grandpa Gu how difficult it was for He Wanqing to get pregnant.
Grandpa Gu understood the meaning of the words, glanced at her with cloudy eyes, and his gaze stayed on her belly for a few seconds and said:
"Wanqing, your grandma is right. You are heavy and it is inconvenient for you. Don't be so reckless next time. Come in and eat."
He Wanqing, who was blocked from speaking, smiled and said, "Okay, Grandpa. Grandma, I was careful just now. I didn't tie my stomach this time."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Gu's face changed and he asked a few more questions.
After learning that she had tied her belly several times, he turned to look at his grandson and granddaughter beside him: “Didn’t I ask you to take care of your sister-in-law?
Is this how you take care of them? ? ? "She was still tied up with her belly. Fortunately, the great-grandson in her belly was fine, otherwise he would definitely settle accounts with these three people who were more likely to cause trouble than help.
"Grandpa~"
"Grandpa~"
Seeing Grandpa Gu about to teach Gu Chengshi and the other two, He Wanqing immediately interrupted Gu Ya and explained:
"Grandpa, Xiaoya and the others have taken care of me, so don't blame them. Let's have lunch quickly. It's getting late." After saying that, he looked at the three people again:
"Aren't you going to work in the afternoon?" He winked at the three of them, signaling them to leave quickly and to talk about anything in the evening.
The three people who saw what was happening said a few words to Grandpa Gu, then hurriedly ran away with their tools.
Seeing this, Grandpa Gu looked at the three of them and then at He Wanqing, smiled and praised her a few words, then sat cross-legged on the kang at the invitation of Grandpa He and Grandpa Shen.
Seeing that Grandpa Gu was seated, He's mother asked He's father, who was a patient, to sit on the kang before turning around and going to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Ten minutes later, the food was served.
There was a plate of sweet fish stewed with tofu, a plate of stir-fried three fresh vegetables, a plate of chicken stewed with wild mushrooms, stewed pork ribs with potatoes, sweet and sour pork, stewed beans with large bones, braised eggplant in oil, and a plate of stir-fried wild mushrooms, exactly eight dishes plus rice.
Among the eight dishes, except for the sweet fish, none of the other dishes had chili peppers. The meat was stewed till tender, which was just enough for Grandpa Gu and Father He to eat.
During the dinner, Grandpa Gu, as the first elder from the man's side to visit, thanked Grandpa He and his mother.
He also apologized to He Wanqing because Gu Cheng'an could not join the army this time.
Finally, he thanked Uncle He and his three families before picking up the wine glass to drink with Grandpa He and Grandpa Shen.
He Wanqing was sitting on the side eating quietly, watching the three old men drinking while picking up food for her biological father whom she had finally met.
Thinking about her previous life, she regretted so much that she didn't even get to see her father's body.
Fortunately, everything has changed now, and the things that happened in the previous life will never happen again in their family.
After picking up another piece of mushroom for her father with chopsticks, she ate her meal at her father's request.
He Baolian felt an indescribable feeling in his heart as he looked at his daughter whom he had not seen for a long time.
He felt even more sad when he thought about how he didn't come back when his daughter got married, and how he finally came back but was injured and needed his pregnant daughter to take care of him.
He picked up the chopsticks and picked up a large chicken drumstick for his daughter and put it in her bowl: "Wanqing, you can eat several people by yourself, so eating more chicken drumsticks is nutritious.
After a while, when I feel better, I will go up the mountain to hunt some pheasants for you to nourish your body. ”
When I thought about what my wife said, that my daughter might be pregnant with triplets, I became extremely worried.
If his body did not allow him to go up the mountain, he would have wanted to go up the mountain now to hunt pheasants for her to replenish her body.
"You need to eat more, Wanqing. Don't be reluctant to eat. If you don't have enough money, Grandpa still has some."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Gu, who was drinking, looked at his granddaughter-in-law's belly with a worried look on his face.
He had just found out that his granddaughter-in-law might be pregnant with triplets. Even if it wasn't triplets, it would be twins. Thinking of the environment here, the old man was a little hesitant about whether to take her back to Nanshi to give birth.
Then he thought of the current chaos in Nanshi, frowned, and wondered whether he should take his granddaughter-in-law to live with his eldest son again.
Looking at the dishes piled in the bowl, He Wanqing smiled and said thank you to the two of them, then picked up the bowl and started eating quickly, fearing that she would not be able to finish the dishes piled up by the two of them.
Lunch took an hour to finish, and before Grandpa Gu had time to rest after eating, he took Grandpa He and Grandpa Shen away.
"Dad, go back and lie down on the kang. You don't need to interfere with the affairs of the family."
After forcing He's father to rest on the kang, He Wanqing left the room and chatted with He's mother in the yard for a few words before taking the things He's father brought her home.
Passing by the village entrance, I chatted with three old men for a few more words before going home again.
After returning home, she originally wanted to go up the mountain, but she took Mr. Gu's things into his room and tidied the house again before sitting in the yard and chatting with Chen Ping, who did not go up the mountain in the afternoon.
Soon it was evening, and she returned to her parents' home again. After dinner, she, Gu Chengshi and others took Old Man Gu home.
As we walked, we listened to the old man sighing about how much better life is now than many years ago, and he also reminded the six people who were going to work to work hard.
After returning home, Gu Chengshi helped Grandpa Gu prepare the bath water, helped him take a bath, and washed his clothes before sitting on the kang to chat.
"Wanqing, stop being busy and sit down and have a rest. The old man didn't come here for you to take care of him.
If you have any issues, please tell Chengshi and Xiaoya and the others, and just focus on taking care of your pregnancy. ”
Holding his granddaughter in one hand and his great-granddaughter in the other, Grandpa Gu looked at her belly and waved at her with a worried look on his face, indicating that she should quickly go to the kang and rest, and stop busying around on the floor.
