Sanbao is not old, but he already knows what it means to favor boys over girls.
Lu Huaijiao found it very funny.
Huang Tingxiu couldn't help but laugh.
Fortunately, she had a natural birth. If she had had a surgical delivery, she might have hurt her incision by laughing.
Looking at Sanbao's sincere eyes, she earnestly assured them that neither she nor Gu Tiezhu would ever show favoritism towards boys, so Sanbao had nothing to worry about.
Sanbao nodded.
"Then we'll all love our younger brother just the same."
"I'll take him to play with Tao Tao in the future."
The triplets really wanted a younger sister, so they treated their cousin Gu Taotao very well.
Now that they know that Gu Taotao won't be ostracized even though she has a younger brother, they've come to like this little brother as well.
I really want him to grow up quickly so we can all play together.
Not long after, Gu Taotao woke up from her afternoon nap.
When she saw her three older brothers return, she immediately got out of bed, wanting to play with them.
Lu Huaijiao told the children to go play in the yard and not to go outside.
"We know, Mom."
"Tao Tao knows too, Auntie."
After they finished speaking very obediently, they took off running into the yard.
Lu Huaijiao placed the sleeping baby in the crib next to her.
Huang Tingxiu asked her softly when she planned to have a second child.
"You like daughters, when do you plan to have another one?"
“It’s not a good time right now.” Lu Huaijiao covered her younger brother with a small blanket before standing up. “I still have some things to take care of. I’ll give birth after I’ve settled everything.”
She never said that she would never have any more children.
Moreover, she had a child with her own husband, and she didn't see anything wrong with it. So, there was nothing wrong with openly admitting it.
Gu Tiezhu didn't return from outside until it was almost time to prepare dinner, after staying next door until the afternoon.
Seeing that he had returned, Lu Huaijiao got up and prepared to go home.
"By the way, Brother Tiezhu, Mom said you should take Taotao over for dinner tonight, and bring Xiuxiu's food over later."
Their families lived close by and often ate together.
Gu Tiezhu did not refuse, but instead agreed.
After conveying her message, Lu Huaijiao went home.
Sanbao, along with Gu Taotao, moved their play area back to their neighbor's house next door.
He Meizhu had already prepared the chicken soup. She stood in the courtyard near the wall where Gu Tiezhu and the others were, and called out to Gu Tiezhu next door, asking him to bring a bowl so that she could deliver the food to Huang Tingxiu first.
There was only a wall between the two houses, so you could hear each other when they spoke.
Not long after, Gu Tiezhu arrived.
He Meizhu filled a lunchbox with chicken soup and chicken meat, and also filled a large bowl with rice, making sure it was enough for Huang Tingxiu to eat.
Gu Tiezhu felt it was a bit too much, and He Meizhu scolded him for it.
They say that you should eat more after giving birth so that your breast milk will be nutritious enough for your baby.
Unable to persuade He Meizhu, Gu Tiezhu had no choice but to send all of those items to Huang Tingxiu.
Huang Tingxiu saw a lunchbox full of chicken and chicken soup, and she naturally felt that it was a bit too much.
Besides, she was also very embarrassed, feeling that they had eaten too much from He Meizhu and the others.
Gu Tiezhu said softly, "Xiuxiu, don't worry. Once you're a month old and feeling better, we'll invite your aunt and the others over for dinner."
"Yes, they have helped us a lot. Brother Tiezhu, you must do your best when you are at work."
Huang Tingxiu didn't know how to repay Lu Huaijiao and the others, so she could only say that she worked extra hard during her work hours.
"I know."
The couple talked as Huang Tingxiu finished her meal.
After she finished eating, Gu Tiezhu tidied up, left his own house, and went to eat next door.
He Meizhu killed a large chicken and also cooked a pot of braised pork. The adults and children in the family all had a hearty meal.
After eating and drinking his fill and cleaning up the kitchen, Gu Jianhua went to open his small shop.
Lu Huaijiao and Gu Changzheng took the three children for a walk in a nearby park.
As they walked out the door, they talked as they headed toward the park.
The content of their conversation was naturally about Lu Zhengde, who had come to their door today but missed them.
"Jiaojiao, don't worry. I went to see Brother Meng this afternoon. He said he would have someone keep an eye on our safety and make sure Lu Zhengde won't threaten our family."
Because he was worried about Lu Zhengde, Gu Changzheng brought back some local specialties from Shanghai and went to the dock to find Meng Yong as soon as he returned.
Although he received Meng Yong's promise, Gu Changzheng had other thoughts in his mind.
Of course, this doesn't mean I have a problem with Meng Yong.
Rather, he will encounter many more things in the future, and he cannot always seek help from Meng Yong or Xiang Dongcheng.
He still needs to become stronger himself.
"young married woman……"
"Fourth Brother, why don't you talk to those people you know and start a legitimate security company?"
Lu Huaijiao and Gu Changzheng had the same idea.
Gu Changzheng looked at Lu Huaijiao with delight, feeling as if their souls were in sync.
This made Gu Changzheng very happy.
Everyone hopes to be on the same page with their partner, that feeling of not only physical intimacy but also a fusion of souls—it's simply too wonderful.
Lu Huaijiao snorted and shook her head, saying, "Don't you even know who I am?"
She's usually too lazy to use her little brain, but when she really gets going, she's incredibly clever.
Gu Changzheng chuckled, agreeing with his wife's words.
The family of five took a walk in the park, and as it got dark, they started walking home.
A few steps from the park, across the street was Gu Changzheng's vocational school. As the couple and their child walked over there, they saw Zhang Qiang and Liu Aiguo walking out of the school one after the other.
Lu Huaijiao clicked her tongue.
"Is there something wrong with your principal?" She reached out and tugged at Gu Changzheng's sleeve, whispering to him in a very low voice.
Gu Changzheng glanced at Liu Aiguo with some confusion, unable to understand why he would still have something to say to Zhang Qiang. Liu Meiling's brain must be filled with shit; it's one thing if she likes that scumbag Zhang Qiang.
However, Liu Aiguo was an extremely shrewd person.
He has no romantic feelings for Zhang Qiang, so why would he hang out with Zhang Qiang?
Is there some crucial element in this that they didn't anticipate?
Gu Changzheng frowned almost imperceptibly, but quickly relaxed again.
Zhang Qiang, who came out from the opposite side, obviously also saw Gu Changzheng and Lu Huaijiao. When his gaze swept over them, it was inevitable that there was a trace of hatred in it!
He was still resentful about their previous reports that he was involved in Miao Yuan's death.
