The car quickly arrived at the family compound, checked the two people's letters of certification, and only let them in after registration.
The weather in May is sunny and breezy on the island.
It was just past dinner time and everyone was sitting at the door chatting.
Seeing Lin Shan driving, everyone stretched their necks and looked curiously at the back seat.
Lin Jingshu was waiting at the door, and Xiaobai was lying obediently at her feet.
Zeng Lingshu looked at her daughter-in-law waiting at the door from afar and felt very distressed.
"Why did Jingshu come out in such a bright sun?"
Those who didn't know her would think she was a wicked mother-in-law who bullied her daughter-in-law and made her come out to pick someone up with her big belly.
She looked at her son suspiciously, wondering if he had asked Jingshu to come out and wait for her.
As soon as Gu Chengze saw his mother's eyes, he knew that she had wrong thoughts again.
"Mom, I don't know anything. I asked Jingshu to wait at home. She must be worried that you guys can't sit still at home."
Zeng Lingshu thought so too, and as soon as she got off the car, she couldn't wait to run towards Lin Jingshu.
"Jingshu, aren't you tired after waiting for so long? Let's go home and rest."
Lin Jingshu smiled and said, "It's okay, Mom. I just waited for a while."
She calculated the time and came out to wait, which was about three to five minutes.
I can't sit still at home, so I go out and stand up to move my body.
Gu Chengze and Lin Shan each held a package, while Xiao Chen and Aunt Liu were carrying things in their hands.
Lin Jingshu quickly invited everyone to go in and rest.
"Jingshu, are there guests at your house?"
Su Hongping heard Lin Jingshu say that people from both families would come, and she was not sure which one they were from.
"My mother came from Jing City."
Su Hongping understood immediately and realized that it was Captain Gu's mother.
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Su Hongping. I live next door."
"Hello, hello. I heard from my daughter Jingshu that she was able to get here thanks to the help of neighbors like you."
When Feng Jinhua, who was watching, heard the word "neighbor", she hurried forward to show her support.
"Auntie, I live to the right of Captain Gu. If you need any help, just call me."
I heard from the child’s father that Captain Gu’s father is a big leader in Beijing City, and the person in front of him is the big leader’s wife.
If she could establish a good relationship with the other party, maybe one day her family could go to Beijing to live.
Lin Jingshu whispered in her mother-in-law's ear: "This is Feng Jinhua."
Before Zeng Lingshu came, she had already asked her daughter-in-law about the environment of the family compound and had also heard of Feng Jinhua's name.
She curved her eyes and said with a forced smile, "Thank you, comrade. We heard that Comrade Feng has two children at home, so we won't bother you."
The smile on Feng Jinhua's face froze. She guessed that Lin Jingshu had told her in advance that their relationship was not good.
After being slapped in the face in front of so many people, Feng Jinhua could not stay any longer even though she was thick-skinned. She returned home with a red face and closed the door.
Everyone looked at each other. Some people had said that the Gu family looked down on Lin Jingshu, a daughter-in-law from the countryside, and would definitely not take her seriously.
Today, it turns out that it’s not the case at all. Not only does he take me seriously, he even came all the way from Beijing to take care of me.
You have to know that the distance from Beijing to the island is not just three or two hours.
The intimacy between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't seem fake, but Captain Gu, who was carrying things and helping them, didn't seem like they were real family members.
Zeng Lingshu entertained her daughter-in-law fully and took her home with satisfaction.
“This puppy is quite cute.”
Xiaobai stuck out his tongue, put his hands on his chest, and stood up to say hello.
"Wow, this dog is really smart."
Aunt Liu exclaimed in surprise and looked at Xiaobai with a look of surprise on her face.
Zeng Lingshu held Xiaobai's front paws and was very fond of it because of its cleverness.
"I asked the chef in the cafeteria for this. When Chengze goes on a mission, Xiaobai stays at home with me and I don't have to worry about him."
Don’t be fooled by Xiaobai’s harmless appearance in front of acquaintances. If he smells danger, he will immediately turn into a manic puppy, baring his teeth and glaring at the enemy.
"Mom, Aunt Liu, have you eaten yet? There's rice and hot water in the pot."
"Jingshu, sit down and rest. Don't worry about us."
Zeng Lingshu was really scared when she saw her big belly. When she heard her say that she had a poor appetite recently, she didn't bother to clean up and immediately asked Aunt Liu to find the things she brought from Beijing.
"This is the medicine I asked the old doctor to prescribe for you. It's specially formulated for your condition. Take two doses later, and you'll be plump and healthy in no time."
The kitchen was clean and tidy, and Aunt Liu smiled as soon as she entered.
When she came, my wife was worried that the couple were just muddling through their lives, but that was totally overthinking.
The bottles and jars in the kitchen alone are enough to prove that they are people who live.
Listening to the laughter outside, Aunt Liu hurriedly prepared the medicine.
Lin Jingshu thought that the medicine her mother-in-law brought would be some unknown black potion, but she didn't expect that the medicine in front of her tasted a bit like sour plum soup.
She took a tentative sip and found it was true.
"Mom, isn't this sour plum soup?"
"It's sour plum soup. The doctor said he adjusted the proportions for you and said it would improve your appetite or something."
Zeng Lingshu only felt at ease bringing the baby after hearing what the doctor said. Drinking sour plum soup will not have much effect on the health of pregnant women.
If she changed it to other medicinal herbs, she would not feel comfortable giving it to her daughter-in-law to drink.
Since it was a recipe for sour plum soup, she couldn't finish a pot of it herself, so she gave everyone a bowl.
Even Xiao Chen, who had packed up and hadn't had time to leave, had a bowl.
After drinking the sour plum soup, Zeng Lingshu finally felt at ease to wash up.
Lin Shan and Xiao Chen returned to the military camp to return the car.
Before leaving, Zeng Lingshu told Lin Shan not to forget to come home for dinner in the evening.
Before his younger sister married Gu Chengze, Lin Shan had contact with Zeng Lingshu. He understood that this was not just a polite remark, so he agreed with a smile.
After Zeng Lingshu finished washing up, she came back and saw some snacks on the table, all made by her daughter-in-law.
She just took a quick look at the house. Not only was the yard well-maintained, but the house was also warm and cozy.
All the visible cabinets in the house were wiped clean, and there were photos of the couple's wedding on them.
Some of them Zeng Lingshu had seen before, and some she had not. I guess they took the photos here.
Furniture that is not in use temporarily can be covered with a piece of floral cloth to make it look neat and not cluttered.
It’s obvious that it was cleaned by the daughter-in-law. To put it nicely, the second son’s room is simple.
If the bed is moved out, it will look like the house has not been decorated at all and has no taste at all.
Zeng Lingshu rolled her eyes at her son and said, "Didn't Jingshu clean all of this? It doesn't look like you cleaned it at all."
Gu Chengze didn't argue with her. "You know what my room looks like. If I still keep it that way after getting married, people who don't know me would think I live in a dormitory."
Lin Jingshu just smiled and said nothing.
In fact, the mother-in-law really wronged Gu Chengze. Since she became pregnant, he has been responsible for the hygiene of the house.
Sometimes when Lin Jingshu saw something she couldn't stand, he wouldn't let her do anything, but would just let her sit on the bench and give orders like a leader.
After doing this a few times, he knew which areas needed to be cleaned up without Lin Jingshu saying much.
