Chapter 219: Prosperity 219: Gu Canyang also gets angry?
"You are willing to give it up." Seeing his daughter-in-law hesitate, Chu Yuan nodded and said, "This old man is so kind, just accept it. We are family, so it won't be a problem."
He also knew a little about Qin Zhou's past. When he was a teenager, the war was raging and he fell in love with a girl. He wanted to give the girl the heirloom left by his mother and marry her.
Unfortunately, in that era, there were few love stories that had a happy beginning and a happy end.
Qin Zhou smiled and nodded: "I don't have any offspring. Now you call me godfather, and your children will be mine in the future. I am really taking advantage of you."
Chu Dai sighed.
I don’t know what to say about the sacrifices these two old people made for their two little ones.
Qin Zhou is not like Chu Yuan. He has many students all over the world, and all of his students hold important positions.
Now I just hope that the two little guys will grow up and work hard, live up to the expectations of the elders, and do something practical for the country.
Whether in politics or other fields, one must not lose the pride in the bones of the Chu family.
But now, as a father, he just hopes that his two sons can grow up safely and healthily.
Even if they grow up and don't want to follow the path planned by their elders, it doesn't matter. They can do scientific research or military work. Even if they want to go back to farm with their grandfather, it is their own choice.
He always respects their choices and is willing to be a lighthouse and guide them when they are lost.
He thought the two old people should be the same.
"Fuck daddy." He changed his tone, took the jade bracelet from Qin Zhou's hand, pulled the woman's slender wrist, and put it on her gently.
The cool and moist touch touched her skin. She stared at the man in a daze as she looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist.
Chu Dai asked, "Do you like it? Then I'll buy you one too."
"No," Gu Qingqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I just think it's too expensive." Even if she had never touched a jade bracelet before, she knew it was a good thing at a glance. Moreover, this was something that her godfather had been wearing for so many years, so it meant a lot to him.
"Take it. It's useless if I keep it. It will be the same if you pass it on to you." Old Qin said with a smile.
Since it was already on her hand, Gu Qingqing didn't want to take it off. She just thought about going back to the room and putting it away quickly, otherwise what if it bumped into something while cooking.
"Thanks, daddy," she said.
Qin Zhou smiled and shook his head, feeling relaxed.
Chu Yuan understood him, so he got up and went to the kitchen to get a bottle of Bamboo Leaf Green Tea. The two old guys raised their glasses and drank together.
Not long after, Xiao Xiao also came back, pulled out a chair and sat down, and said to Gu Qingqing: "My father was killed by my mother." He could not hide the excitement in his eyes.
Gu Qingqing: “…” She suddenly remembered that she said that day that her mother was very fierce, and Xue Xu’s mother was even fiercer than her mother.
Suddenly I couldn’t imagine how fierce these two ladies were.
Xiao Nian Nian, who was sleeping on the sofa, also woke up. He opened the quilt, pushed away the chair next to him, rubbed his eyes, and walked towards the dining table. He found Gu Canyang accurately and climbed onto him using his hands and feet.
Gu Canyang held him and sat him on his lap, facing the dining table, and asked him, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
"Shui Shui." Xiao Niannian leaned into his uncle's arms and yawned.
Chu Dai held Gu Qingqing down, stood up and said, "You eat, I'll get it."
I poured some warm water into the bottle and handed it to my son. He said, "Why don't you go back with your uncle at night? The Air Force dormitory is not bad. Your uncle is a high-ranking official and the accommodation is good. You can live alone and cry as much as you want at night."
Little Niannian bit the pacifier and drank half a bottle of water with trembling legs. He was still not satisfied and let go of the bottle, which fell into his uncle's palm.
Putting the bottle aside, Gu Canyang asked him, "Will you come back with me?"
Xiao Niannian turned around and rubbed his neck with his head, saying in a baby voice: "I want it~"
Chu Dai patted his butt and sat down next to Gu Canyang. "Okay, go sleep with your uncle tonight. Take your milk powder and diapers with you."
Xiao Niannian nodded, "Chirp~"
Gu Qinglie asked the little girl in Chu Yuan's arms, "Why don't our Dabao sleep with our second uncle? His bed is big, and you don't have to squeeze with your parents. He can also secretly give you candy, and you can drink sugar water if you want."
Little Tuantuan blinked and said in a baby voice, "Liar Tuantuan!"
The adults couldn't help laughing. Gu Qingqing ate her meal leisurely and said to Xiao Xiao, "He has lied to Tuan Tuan a lot these past two days. I've made a note of it."
Xiao Xiao thought it was very interesting: "I thought children don't remember things. I have to be more careful in the future and not tease them."
Gu Qingqing wondered: "Then why don't I remember anything about my childhood?"
"I just remember it." Gu Qinglie drank a bowl of fish soup, which was sour and appetizing. He said, "If someone bumped into me outside, I would sit on the ground and cry for a long time. After crying, I felt unwilling to give up, so I went home and cried again in front of my brothers."
The Gu family only has this one girl. Not to mention her cousin, even her brothers Gu Tiezhuan and Gu Tieshi were so angry when they saw her crying.
Chu Dai found it a little funny: "So coquettish."
"Yes, my brother and I had a lot of fights with others because of her. Now this heartless girl has forgotten her brother's kindness and always bullies me." Gu Qinglie glanced at her.
Gu Qingqing felt a little guilty, "Then I will be nicer to you in the future?"
Xiao Xiao looked at Gu Canyang, who was feeding his nephew with his head down, in surprise. He walked over to Gu Qingqing and asked, "Did your elder brother often fight when he was a child?"
It's simply unimaginable.
Does Gu Canyang also get angry and have emotional fluctuations?
The only time she had seen him do this was when he had an expressionless face and kicked Chu Dai hard.
“Often,” Gu Qingqing recalled, “but the only one who got scolded was my second brother.”
Xiao Xiao couldn't help laughing.
This is just like what happened to Chu Zhao. Three people got into trouble and he was the one who took the blame.
After the meal, there was no rush to clear the table. Chu Yuan and Old Qin drank and talked about the past in low voices, while the young men planned for the future. Shen Sui also listened quietly, trying to get useful information from them and reconfirm his direction.
Gu Qingqing heard Xiao Xiao talk about all kinds of gossip in the compound, which were all what she heard from her mother, about all kinds of family gossip. The people in this compound are all high-ranking cadres in the military region, and there are always some who want to use the back door.
Some aunties feel unbalanced when they see their husband's relatives coming in, and want to push their natal relatives in as well.
It is said that the most common reason for quarrels between couples in the compound is because of this.
Gu Qingqing held her chin with one hand and listened to her vivid words. When she thought of something, she said "Oh!" and said, "Wait for me."
"What?" Xiao Xiao took a glass of water to moisten his throat.
"Didn't you buy some fruit? I'll go wash them. Grapes will go bad if they're not kept properly." Gu Qingqing went to the kitchen.
She washed the grapes one by one and put them in a bowl, cut the mangoes into pieces and put them on bamboo sticks, and did not forget to take the pineapple with her.
This is the advantage of living in Nanyang. There are abundant fruits and seafood and they are cheap. Some of the fruits are grown by the production team and some are wild. As for seafood, the government allows fishermen to catch them and the production team sells them in the market.
When the fruits were served, no one reacted. The most common fruit Gu Qinglie had eaten in the border town was watermelon with red flesh and green skin. He was not familiar with these fruits.
Seeing that they were not interested, he just held the bowl and ate.
Little Tuantuan had already gotten out of Grandpa's arms and ran to turn on the TV. When there was food, she came over again, smiling brightly at her uncle.
“Chirp~”
Gu Qinglie snorted and laughed, "I'm not your uncle, I'm a liar."
Xiao Tuantuan put her hand on his arm and stood on tiptoe to see what was in the bowl, but the man was too tall. Even when he was sitting, he was much taller than him.
The root of the pressure cannot be seen.
Xiao Tuantuan was so anxious that she kept shaking his arm: "Chirp~Woo~"
Gu Qinglie found it a little funny, but was afraid of making him cry, so he bent down slightly and held the bowl in front of him: "Tell uncle what this is?"
"Guoguo!" Little Tuantuan reached out and took a grape. Seeing his uncle lowered his head, he stood on tiptoe and put his little face against his uncle's wheat-colored face: "Uncle~"
As he said this, he stuffed the grapes into Gu Qinglie's mouth.
Gu Qinglie was so delighted by his coaxing that he picked up the little guy and let him sit on his lap, "What else do you want to eat?"
He poked another piece of mango with the skewer.
"He ate a lot in the afternoon, so don't give him anything." Gu Qingqing warned.
"I know, I know. Just let him smell it." She said this but still put the mango piece to his mouth. Little Tuantuan licked it with his tongue, then smacked his lips and secretly savored the taste while hiding in his uncle's arms.
Gu Qingqing could only smile helplessly when she saw this. She was also spoiled by her brothers when she was a child.
Life got a little better when she was in her teens. Sometimes if she ate too much of something, her mother would tell her and her brothers would secretly feed her. When she got bloating, she had to go to Hao Yizhen to get some digestive medicine, and then take the note to Uncle Suanpan to get reimbursed.
It was getting late, and Xiao Xiao was about to go back after helping to clean up the table. Gu Canyang had a mission tomorrow, so he handed Xiao Nian Nian to Chu Dai and also got up to leave.
Xiao Niannian held his uncle's fingertips and looked at him eagerly.
Chu Dai picked up his son and said, "You really want to go with your uncle. He has a flight mission tomorrow and can't take care of you. When you are older, you can live with your uncle and eat flight attendant food every day, okay?"
Little Niannian was in his father's arms. He turned his head and looked at his uncle, as if waiting for his answer.
Gu Canyang nodded, "It's uncle's allowance, you can go and eat it anytime."
The young man then stopped.
Gu Canyang and Xiao Xiao walked along the way. Looking at the girl's excited back and the unmoved man beside her, Gu Qingqing shook her head and smiled.
After eating and drinking, Xiao Tuantuan went to play with his younger brother. The two little guys were waiting for their father to turn on the TV.
Gu Qinglie saw the two elders finish their drinks and clean up the table with his sister.
"Can we maintain this standard of meals for the next few days?" he asked, looking at the empty dishes.
"As long as you want to eat it, the standard can be raised a little bit. Why don't you come with me to the market tomorrow? You don't have to wait for Brother Jianguo and the others to deliver the food." Gu Qingqing wiped the table and said, "Don't you like eating meat? I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to get a piece of pork belly and make spicy pork belly for you?"
"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow. No need to bring a ticket. I have one here."
Gu Qingqing took the bowl and went to the kitchen. "You should keep the money for marrying a wife."
Gu Qinglie scratched his head, rolled up his sleeves and followed in, bending down to get a basin from under the cupboard to collect water for washing dishes.
