When the car arrived in town, Gu Changzheng got out and went to see Gu Xiangdong again. The two brothers talked about something, and when he came out of Gu Xiangdong's office, he said that everything was settled.
Lu Huaijiao didn't ask him what he had sorted out. In short, if Gu Changzheng said there was no problem, then there was no problem.
She's more focused on news from 998 now.
But 998 always seems to be quite slow? Lu Huaijiao searched for it in her mind several times, but couldn't find it anywhere. She didn't know where it had gone.
Since she couldn't get news from 998 right away, Lu Huaijiao couldn't be too anxious.
She chose to believe in 998 and wait patiently.
Back in the city, Lu Huaijiao and the others handed over what they had brought back to He Meizhu. He Meizhu looked at what the third and eldest brothers had asked the fourth brother to bring back, and she gave a cold laugh.
"Boss, you must be really reluctant to part with him, right?"
The saying "no comparison, no harm" is true. Compared to the corn cobs that Gu Changshan picked, Gu Changhe's dried goods seemed to require a lot of effort.
He Meizhu glanced at them, then selected the corn cobs and prepared to cook them all in one pot.
Sanbao doted on Lu Huaijiao, showing concern and care. Although they had only been apart for a few days, Sanbao missed his parents terribly.
Specifically, I miss my mother the most.
Seeing this, Lu Huaijiao smiled and patted their heads.
"You're so reluctant to leave Mommy? What if Mommy goes to a farther place or stays for a longer time? What will you babies do then?"
She asked with her eyebrows curved.
He Meizhu, who was tidying up the corn, looked up with a smile when she heard Lu Huaijiao's words: "Although Sanbao is a boy, he misses his mother just like a girl. These past few days while you and Lao Si have been away from home, he has been asking every day when his mother will come back."
"Oh, is that so? You miss your mom that much?"
Sanbao nodded repeatedly.
"I miss my mom."
"I love my mom."
"I love my mom the most."
Sanbao really gave me face.
He always managed to make Lu Huaijiao very happy.
Gu Changzheng came out of the house and saw his son surrounding his wife. His heart softened. "Wife, you rest at home. I'm going out for a bit."
After returning from the village, he would definitely report what he had found out to Nie Heng first.
Lu Huaijiao did not interfere much in his affairs.
He Meizhu and the others naturally wouldn't interfere too much in their son's affairs.
After Gu Changzheng left, Lu Huaijiao started talking to He Meizhu about things in the village, mentioning that Gu Changhe and the others were thinking of going to the city, and that Gu Changqing and Xu Honglian were still bickering...
Speaking of her good-for-nothing second son, He Meizhu scoffed.
"Forget it, I'll just pretend I never gave birth to him."
Perhaps at first, He Meizhu was a little unaccustomed to it, but after several years, she has successfully seen through Gu Changqing's son, who is impossible to raise properly.
As for Gu Jindan and Gu Baodan's two grandsons, He Meizhu showed no joy whatsoever.
Hearing that they had bullied Daya and Erya like that, He Meizhu scolded Gu Changshan and Liu Chun in exasperation.
"These two are idiots. They were incredibly clever when they were scheming against you. But when their own daughter was bullied, they couldn't even protect her. I've never seen parents like them."
He Meizhu genuinely felt that her eldest son was too stupid, and her second son was overly shrewd.
So much so that even she, as a mother, didn't know how she could have sons like them.
It seems she has never really understood them.
Lu Huaijiao smiled and comforted He Meizhu, telling her not to be angry.
"Mom, you still have me and Fourth Brother, right? We'll take good care of you and Dad. Besides, I think Third Brother and his wife are also filial. Third Sister-in-law even makes shoes for you and Dad."
When talking about her daughter-in-law, He Meizhu managed a slight smile.
“Your third sister-in-law was bullied by her sisters in her own family and was very timid. After marrying your third brother, she always felt inferior because she didn’t get pregnant right away and had no presence in the family.”
But it was this daughter-in-law, who had the least presence in the family, who still remembered the two elderly people who came to the city.
Actually, He Meizhu and her family don't want much right now; they just want their children to remember them. But it seems they can completely give up on their eldest and second sons' families now.
Lu Huaijiao thought of the Gu brothers and worried that her three children might become completely different people after getting married, just like Gu Changqing and Gu Changshan.
She reached out and patted their heads, gently reminding them, "Sanbao, you must love each other, be filial to your grandparents and parents, and cherish your little sister."
Sanbao nodded repeatedly.
He Meizhu laughed happily from the side: "Our Sanbao is the most filial, he would never learn from those heartless people, right?"
He Meizhu truly dotes on her three grandsons, whom she raised single-handedly. Fortunately, the three children have good personalities, and He Meizhu's doting isn't spoiling them, so they haven't developed bad personalities.
If they were like Gu Jindan and Gu Baodan, Lu Huaijiao felt that she would beat them up without anyone telling her, until they couldn't take care of themselves.
…………
Time flew by amidst the family's laughter and joy, and before they knew it, it was June in the lunar calendar.
Lu Huaijiao is five months pregnant with twins.
Her belly is now very big, so much so that Niu Fangfang keeps grumbling that it's a pity she didn't let Lu Huaijiao be her bridesmaid.
Yes, that's right. Summer vacation is almost halfway over. June 18th is an auspicious day for weddings, and Xiang Dongcheng and Niu Fangfang's wedding will be held today.
Lu Huaijiao couldn't be a bridesmaid, but she still had to attend the wedding banquet.
However, because of her growing belly, Gu Changzheng and Chen Lin took care of Lu Huaijiao every step of the way.
Fortunately, the family had hired bodyguards beforehand to help He Meizhu take care of the three children. Otherwise, He Meizhu definitely wouldn't have been able to bring the three children alone to an event like this.
Lu Huaijiao attended Niu Fangfang's wedding banquet. Watching Niu Fangfang being led by her father and handed over to Xiang Dongcheng while crying and laughing, the corners of her lips never left her lips.
It's so wonderful to see someone find their happiness. Especially when that person is your best friend; it feels even more exciting than getting married yourself.
Unfortunately, she is currently pregnant and cannot participate in the whole event. She can only make a brief appearance and then leave. Otherwise, she would definitely like to spend some quality time with Niu Fangfang and the others.
Someone from the crowd walked over and whispered something in Gu Changzheng's ear.
Gu Changzheng nodded and turned to Lu Huaijiao, saying, "Wife, let Comrade Chen take you home first."
"Hmm? Okay, then be careful."
Gu Changzheng did not tell Lu Huaijiao what he was going to do.
However, Lu Huaijiao keenly sensed that what Gu Changzheng was doing might be somewhat dangerous.
That's why she reminded him to be careful.
Gu Changzheng hummed in agreement.
"I'll be back tonight."
