Chapter 245 Protecting One's Own



“We are siblings, why would we be afraid of you being a burden?”

"We're worried that it will be hard for you, a woman, to live alone." Hearing her say this, both of her brothers-in-law's faces darkened.

He couldn't help but glare at He Ming again. It was all his fault for having to bring that old woman here.

He Ming shrank his neck twice; it seemed he couldn't avoid this beating.

"Brother, I've made up my mind."

"I want a divorce. They are disgusting!" Wu Xiaohong took a deep breath and made her final decision.

She had walked a path of life and death, and had seen and understood everything.

She barely escaped with her life, and she absolutely cannot let it fall into the hands of others again.

"No, Xiaohong, I won't get a divorce, I won't get a divorce."

"If you don't like Mom, then I'll send her back. I won't let her come to our house anymore." He Ming's body went limp, and he knelt down on the ground with a thud.

He got this job after he got married, with his wife's family helping him find it.

If they get divorced, how will he continue working?

He was very self-aware; he wasn't very capable, but he was a treasure in his mother's eyes.

Without the Yue family, I'd be nothing.

If it weren't for the help of the Yue family over the years, they would never have been living such a comfortable life.

If they really get divorced, he'll probably have to go back to the countryside.

He's kicking himself now; why did he have to bring his mother over?

"Didn't you just say your mother had a hard life? Why are you sending her back now?"

I think you two should go back together.

After all, you are so filial. How could I feel at ease if I didn't go back to take care of you? Seeing his tearful appearance, Wu Xiaohong felt a secret sense of pleasure.

My heart, which had been filled with pent-up frustration and bitterness, finally felt a little better.

"Xiao Hong, I won't get a divorce. I was wrong. I apologize to you."

Seeing that he still had something to say, Wu Xiaohong said impatiently to her two older brothers, "Brothers, I'm tired. I want to sleep for a while. He's too noisy."

"Understood!" The two brothers-in-law nodded in unison, then each grabbed one of him and pulled him toward the door.

And just like that, the farce came to an end.

The ward quickly returned to its previous silence.

A short while later, the old woman entered the ward with her two daughters-in-law.

Looking at the women on the hospital beds, their expressions were somewhat complicated.

After a long silence, she finally said, "Alright, if you want a divorce, then go ahead. Mom will take care of you during your postpartum period."

Wu Xiaohong could no longer hold back, and tears welled up in her eyes, "Mom,..."

………

"Are you tired? Lie down!" Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Gu Yanbai helped her up with one hand and laid out the pillow with the other.

Gu Yanliu looked at the woman opposite him with a sympathetic expression.

She held the baby and gently rocked her, "Sister-in-law, Xiaxia is sleeping so soundly, just like a little pig."

“Gu Yanliu, you were like this when you were little. You would eat as soon as you woke up, and then sleep again after you were full. You slept even more soundly than her.” Gu Yanbai glanced at her, his eyes smiling.

"Brother, is this what they call protecting your own? I just said Xiaxia is like a little pig, and you dragged me into it too."

"It's good that you know. From now on, as her aunt, you're not allowed to bully your little niece." He helped Su Nianxue tuck the blanket in.

Gu Yanliu...

When did she ever bully her? She really loves her little niece, okay?

They only stayed in the hospital for one night and went home the next day.

The old man and his wife, Gu Yansong, were already waiting at home early.

Upon seeing them, they all rushed to greet them.

The old man carefully took the child, exclaiming, "Oh my, my little darling, how come you've grown so beautiful?"

He was intrigued for a while before finally asking, "Has the child been named yet?"

"I've just given it a nickname. We're waiting for you, sir, to choose its proper name!" Gu Yanbai said with a smile.

Su Nianxue quickly added, "Yes, Grandpa, please give me one."

This child was born on your birthday; it's a special connection between you and your grandchild, so you should be the one to name him/her.

The old man looked kind and said, "Alright, I'll give it a try. If it doesn't sound good, you can choose one yourselves."

He thought for a moment, then said solemnly, "Let's call her Gu Yusu!"

Gu Yanbai and his wife exchanged a glance. See? They knew the old man had already chosen the name.

"Okay, this name is really nice." Su Nianxue kissed the child's little face, and that was the end of it.

Yang Hongxing arrived early the next morning.

Of course, Zhou Mingjie was following behind her.

Now, unless he's away from home, he's wherever Yang Hongxing is.

They used to always mock Gu Yanbai, saying that ever since he got married, he'd been following his wife around like a tantrum, always clinging to her.

She's become a bit fussy and indecisive.

But now, he has become the very thing he once looked down on.

He became even more clingy after being hospitalized once.

Firstly, I learned a lesson from the old man in the same ward, and I was afraid that I would end up like him in the future.

Secondly, he has been unable to move around easily these days and relies heavily on Yang Hongxing for care.

He had always intended to repair their relationship, and during this time the two of them spent every day together, he discovered more of her good qualities.

She seems easy to talk to, but deep down she's quite opinionated.

She has a gentle nature, but when she's really determined, she can be quite stubborn.

Moreover, she has been staying at home these days, which has made her skin noticeably fairer.

In addition, due to pregnancy, her body has become fuller, and she looks even better.
