The two children were impatient with being restrained and twisted their little bodies unhappily, trying to break free from the adults' wrists.
The two had no choice but to let them go and allow them to move around freely.
Before Su Nianxue could speak, the two children had already run far away.
She said to Yang Hongxing, "Let's hurry up! If we don't catch up, these two little rascals will disappear."
………………
"Brother, sister-in-law, I've brought you some things." Gu Yanliu appeared at the door carrying a large bamboo basket.
As soon as Xiaxia saw her, she ran over and hugged her leg, tilting her little head up and sweetly calling out, "Auntie!"
"Xiaxia, do you miss your aunt?" Gu Yanliu rubbed her little head.
The little girl nodded vigorously and said in her childish voice, "I want to!"
Gu Yanliu bent down, picked her up, and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.
Xiaxia quickly touched her face with her chubby little hands.
Whenever someone kisses her, she quickly wipes the water off her face.
No one is an exception.
Su Nianxue quickly took the bamboo basket from her hands. "Put her down. This girl is so heavy, like a stone. My arms will get sore if I hold her for too long."
Gu Yanliu didn't care at all, "This is nothing, no matter how heavy she is, can she be as heavy as a load of tofu?"
She hadn't seen the little girl for a few days and missed her terribly.
Once I held her in my arms, I was reluctant to let go.
"You're just like your brother, always spoiling her. This girl is getting more and more naughty, it's all because of you two." Su Nianxue glared at Gu Yanbai.
If you were to ask who in the family dotes on this little girl the most, it would undoubtedly be him.
This man is usually very fierce outside; almost everyone who deals with him is afraid of him.
But once he gets home, especially in front of his daughter, he has no temper at all.
As soon as we went out, I either carried her in my arms or hoisted her onto my shoulders, so I never let her walk more than a few steps.
Oh, and toys too.
Now, every time he goes out and comes back, the package he carries is mostly filled with his daughter's toys.
It's no exaggeration to say that those toys could fill half a room.
This is also why Zhou Mingjie's son likes to come to their house.
Xiaxia has many toys, and the two of them can play for most of the day just by staying in the house without going anywhere else.
"No, what does this have to do with me? I didn't say a word." Gu Yanbai spread his hands, looking very innocent.
"Do you think her lawless nature only developed recently?" That's really something to say about him.
Knowing he couldn't win the argument, Gu Yanbai had no choice but to leave. "Fine, you guys sit for a while! I'm going back to the village for a stroll, so I won't get in your way."
When they were building their house, they had already told the workers that they wouldn't provide food or drink, but their wages would be higher than in other places.
Although this method does save a lot of trouble, he would still go to the construction site from time to time to help buy materials and run errands.
Occasionally, they would give the workers extra meals, such as cigarettes and tea, and they were never stingy.
Now the villagers have a much different opinion of him.
At first, people said that their family was heartless, saying that how could they build a house without providing food for the workers?
But now I think it's actually quite a good deal.
The workers who built their house were not only paid well, but they also got to eat a good meal from time to time.
All things considered, it's much more cost-effective than building houses for others.
"Okay, go ahead and get busy." Su Nianxue waved to him.
The two sisters-in-law haven't sat down and chatted together for a while.
Seeing that Su Nianxue had finished her work, Gu Yanliu sat down with Xiaxia in his arms.
She pinched Xiaxia's little face, "Sister-in-law, now my brother's family has also welcomed a baby."
"Huh?" This was a bit sudden, and Su Nianxue was a little taken aback.
“I was just saying, your older brother has a kid now.”
Gu Yanliu understood her feelings. You see, when she first heard the news, she had the same expression as her sister-in-law.
"When did this happen? Whose child were you adopted from?"
"Just yesterday!"
They had something to do yesterday and needed to go to the county. Just as they reached a crossroads, they saw a baby crying loudly by the roadside.
"My sister-in-law felt sorry for the child, so she took him in," Gu Yanliu explained.
"That's good too. Doesn't your sister-in-law always like children?"
Now that a little girl has joined the family, it will be much more lively from now on. Su Nianxue was also happy for Taozi.
Gu Yanliu nodded, "Yes, you don't know, my sister-in-law has been so happy these past two days."
Although I was busy and flustered all day, the smile on my face never left my face.
Of course, she would also help her when she had free time, since Peach was a novice at taking care of children.
Sometimes we're too busy to handle everything!
"Then... Aunt Yang has no objections?" She remembered that Taozi had said that before.
Her mother once suggested that she take one of her nephews home to raise, so that he could help take care of her in her old age.
Now that they've brought a girl back, they just don't know if the Yang family will have any objections.
"Aunt Yang did come to our house once."
She also disliked the little girl quite a bit, but her sister-in-law liked her, so she couldn't do anything about it.
The news that they had gone out and brought back a baby spread throughout the entire village in less than fifteen minutes.
Of course, Gu Yansong and his wife never intended to keep it a secret.
They found the child by the roadside; they were upright and honest, so they weren't afraid of people gossiping behind their backs.
