this……
It was all just a dream!
Gu Changzheng sighed resignedly, washed the fruit, drained it, and then brought it over for Lu Huaijiao and the others to eat.
"Auntie, have some fruit."
Lu Huaijiao picked out a pear for Zheng Shujuan, and then picked one up for herself and handed it to Gu Changzheng.
"I want to eat this."
Gu Changzheng hummed in agreement.
She turned around and went to peel the pear.
Zheng Chunhua watched from the side, finding it somewhat amusing.
"Huaijiao, you've managed your husband very well."
If it were her eldest son, he probably wouldn't treat the little girl so patiently and without complaint.
Lu Huaijiao smiled and said, "Fourth Brother likes to help me with chores."
The little girl had a sweet voice, which sounded innocent and pure.
But as Gu Changzheng was peeling the skin, his hand trembled. He had married such a hardworking woman who didn't want to do any work. If he didn't do the work for her, who would?
Was he supposed to just stand by and watch her starve to death because of her laziness?
Honestly, Gu Changzheng felt extremely cruel whenever he thought of that scene.
He's probably not ruthless enough? Anyway, no matter what, he wouldn't do something like that.
Gu Changzheng was lost in thought, but thankfully, she didn't neglect her work at all. She skillfully peeled the pear and cut it into small pieces so it would be easy for her to bite into.
When he handed the pear over, Lu Huaijiao took it and let him take a bite first.
Gu Changzheng was flattered.
"Jiaojiao, I don't like sweets."
In fact, this is his baby's and his little ones' food, how could he have the nerve to steal it?
Men don't need fruit, as long as they have food to eat.
Lu Huaijiao frowned: "That's why I let you taste it to see if it's sweet. I don't eat sour things."
Zheng Shujuan, who was standing to the side, wanted to say that the pear was very sweet, but Lu Huaijiao had already forced a bite of the pear in her hand onto Gu Changzheng.
Seeing Lu Huaijiao's arrogant and domineering expression, Zheng Shujuan suddenly realized what was going on.
It's not that I'm afraid of pear acid!
This is because you feel sorry for your loved one and want to give them something delicious to eat!
Zheng Shujuan watched the interaction between the two young people and felt extremely envious.
When she was young, she had a good relationship with her husband, but after several decades, their relationship became incredibly bland.
That feeling is like the water you drink every day; it has no taste, but you can't live without it.
People like Lu Huaijiao and Gu Changzheng are like those colorful and sweet sodas sold on the shelves of department stores!
It tastes completely sweet.
Zheng Shujuan sat there for a while, but seeing that Lu Huaijiao was getting sleepy, she felt embarrassed to sit any longer.
Ask them when they will leave Shanghai, and insist on having a meal at their home before they leave.
Lu Huaijiao hummed in agreement.
"Not so fast. My captain is good to us. He gave us a month's leave. After deducting the time spent on the road, we can stay at home for twenty days."
Gu Jianhua truly cares for them.
I wrote them a one-month introduction letter.
This monthly family visit introduction letter required the signature of both the brigade leader and the commune, but the young couple didn't have to worry about any of that; Gu Jianhua took care of it himself.
Only after everything was prepared was it given to Lu Huaijiao and the others.
This is mainly because we feel sorry for Lu Huaijiao, who is pregnant with three babies.
As for my son, I can only dote on him incidentally.
Zheng Shujuan was extremely gratified to hear this.
"That's good. You must come to our house for dinner another day."
Zheng Shujuan was very enthusiastic.
Of course, he's not enthusiastic towards everyone.
The main problem was that Lu Huaijiao had come all the way back with her newlywed partner, only to be met not by her family who were waiting for them with great joy, but by her father who had just married the nanny. Anyone would be upset in that situation.
Zheng Shujuan invited them over for dinner, and also wanted to use this opportunity to tell Gu Changzheng that even though Lu Zhengde had done something unpleasant, they, as neighbors, still cared for Lu Huaijiao.
Lu Huaijiao hummed in response.
Nods obediently.
"Auntie, I need to trouble you with something!"
"Hmm? What is it?"
"That's right. Gu Changzheng and I got married in the countryside. None of our neighbors in the city know about it. I'm thinking of finding a good day in a few days to have a meal at home with two tables."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Shujuan exclaimed, "That's a good idea!"
"That's great! Once you've set a date, your Auntie Pang and I will come to help. We'll take care of the cooking."
"Yes, I'll definitely need to trouble you, Auntie. Right now, I'm thinking of asking Uncle Liu to help me decide when would be a good time to hold the banquet."
Although the rules are still very strict outside, people secretly check what kind of days are suitable for what activities.
Logically speaking, a young person like Lu Huaijiao shouldn't be so superstitious.
But the truth is quite the opposite. After experiencing what happened in her previous life, Lu Huaijiao felt that there were some things she had to believe in.
On such a big day as a wedding, it's definitely something I have to see.
Zheng Shujuan understood.
She nodded and said "eh".
He patted Lu Huaijiao's hand.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I'll talk to your Uncle Fang when he gets back."
"Yes, thank you, Auntie."
"Why are you thanking me, Auntie? That's too polite." Zheng Shujuan gave her a reproachful look, then smiled and said, "Alright, you should go and get some rest. I won't bother you any longer."
"Okay, goodbye, Auntie."
After seeing Zheng Shujuan out and closing the door, the girl, who had just been smiling sweetly and looking so well-behaved, immediately became lazy.
He turned around, his face full of dejection, his shoulders slumped.
"Gu Changzheng, quickly carry me to bed."
Gu Changzheng, who was tidying up the house, immediately put down what he was doing when he heard his wife's words, and came over to carry his beloved wife upstairs.
The housekeeper Lu Huaijiao had previously hired came to clean once a week. They returned just in time; the housekeeper had just finished cleaning the morning before yesterday, so the house was still quite clean.
Zhu Guihua, that old woman, only got the keys to the yard and the first floor from Qin Lan. Lu Huaijiao never gave Qin Lan the keys to the rooms on the second floor.
So if they wanted to enter the room, they had to ask the cleaning lady.
When they arrived yesterday, the cleaning lady had already left, so they hadn't been able to get the room key yet.
Gu Changzheng carried Lu Huaijiao to the room on the second floor with a small terrace garden. He took out the quilt from the closet, changed it into another unused quilt cover from his backpack, laid out the sheets, put on the pillowcases, and then let the person who was sitting on the rocking chair in the small garden, who was drowsy, come and sleep.
Lu Huaijiao tugged at the shirt on his chest.
I mumbled sleepily that the duvet cover was dusty and that sleeping on it would make my skin itchy and cause bumps.
Gu Changzheng found it both amusing and exasperating. Even though he was so sleepy, he still remembered to be picky!
“My little darling, this is from home, the same set we wore for our wedding. You saw it when I was washing it a few days ago.”
