Chapter 24 Received an Invitation
"Yes, go and have a rest first. Let Aunt Zhao clean it up first. If it doesn't work, we can connect the two rooms and renovate them. Then we can ask Nuannuan for her opinion." Father Gu also said.
"Okay. It's getting late today, let's all go to bed." Mother Gu agreed with Father Gu's opinion.
The next afternoon, Ye Nuan was awakened by the ringing of her cell phone. She answered it and heard Gu's mother say on the other end, "Nuan Nuan, did you have a good rest?"
"Well, is there anything I can help you with?" Ye Nuan was still a little confused. After all, she had worked the night shift all night and had only slept for 6 hours.
"Mom will ask the driver to pick you up, okay? Let's go have a meal and then go shopping at the mall." Mother Gu's tone was full of anticipation.
Ye Nuan hesitated when she heard what Gu's mother said. She looked at the time and asked, "Have you not had lunch yet?"
"Yes, Mom thought that you had finished your night shift and must not have had lunch yet, so she thought of waiting for you to eat together." said Mrs. Gu.
"Okay." Ye Nuan thought about her decision and decided to try to change herself.
"Okay, okay, Nuannuan, Mom will ask Uncle Zhao to pick you up at the hospital entrance." Hearing Ye Nuan agree, Mother Gu said happily.
Ye Nuan got up, washed up, rummaged through her suitcase, and found a pair of jeans and a white shirt that she had rarely worn. After thinking about it, she felt that they were quite suitable.
Usually, Ye Nuan wears black casual pants and a black top. This has always been her habit. Black will not fade, unlike jeans, which may fade after wearing for a long time and turn white after washing too many times.
After her second year of high school, Ye Nuan hardly grew taller. At 168cm tall, she was often envied for being tall and thin. It was only after meeting the Gu family that she realized that her height was really hereditary.
Therefore, some of Ye Nuan's clothes were bought in high school. Most of them were black, with no particular pattern or style, and they would not look out of place at any age. The blue jeans were bought with Ye Nuan's first salary, and the white shirt, black trousers, and small leather shoes were bought with the money she earned from working part-time for half a month before the interview.
Ye Nuan felt that if he wore a white shirt with black trousers today, it would be too formal and not suitable for meeting family members. But he couldn't be too casual either, as he was going out with Gu's mother after all. Therefore, jeans and a white shirt were the best choice.
After quickly changing her clothes, Ye Nuan checked the time. It had been ten minutes since Gu's mother called. Yesterday, it took Gu Mocheng about half an hour to take her to Gu's house, but did the driver from the Gu family who came to pick her up leave in advance?
I decided to wait at the hospital entrance. I didn’t have much appetite in the morning. I only drank a bowl of millet porridge and didn’t eat lunch, so I took out a mint candy from my backpack and put it in my mouth to avoid motion sickness and hypoglycemia.
After waiting at the hospital entrance for 10 minutes, Uncle Zhao opened the passenger window and waved to Ye Nuan. Ye Nuan saw her, walked up to him and said "Hello," and Uncle Zhao let her in. Along the way, Ye Nuan didn't communicate with the two people in front of her. She felt a little awkward and thought that if she went to Gu's house again in the future, she would take the subway.
Fortunately, the driver drove fast and they soon arrived at the Gu family mansion. Ye Nuan got out of the car and walked into the villa with Zhao Bo. Gu Muyan, Gu Muxi, Lu Qingqing and Gu Mochen surrounded Gu's mother and Gu Mucha, and it was unknown what they were discussing.
Little Gu Jingnian was playing with building blocks on the carpet when he suddenly looked up and saw Ye Nuan coming in. He waved to her enthusiastically. Soon, Gu's mother also saw Ye Nuan coming and hurried over, "Nuannuan, you're here. Come on, you must be hungry. Come eat. Aunt Zhao, quickly bring the dishes over."
Ye Nuan didn't have time to greet the others before being dragged to sit in the restaurant by Gu's mother. Aunt Zhao quickly put the dishes on the table and brought hot towels to wipe Ye Nuan and Gu's mother's hands.
Mother Gu said, "Nuannuan, I don't know what you like to eat, so I asked Aunt Zhao to prepare these. Tell me what you like to eat, and I will ask the kitchen to make it for you next time."
"Thank you." Ye Nuan nodded and said softly. Her heart felt like it was being grabbed by a pair of hands. She couldn't describe the feeling.
She picked up her chopsticks and looked at the half-filled table, not knowing what to eat. Seeing her dazed look, Mother Gu picked up her chopsticks and helped Ye Nuan pick up some braised pork and beef brisket while introducing the dishes. Ye Nuan didn't refuse and started eating. Needless to say, the food tasted really good. At least, Ye Nuan had never eaten such delicious food before.
After a while, Aunt Zhao brought another bowl of black chicken soup and placed it in front of Ye Nuan, saying, "This is specially stewed by Madam for you to nourish yourself."
"Thank you." Ye Nuan was stunned for a moment and said. At this moment, she realized that these meals were not made just for her! Gu's mother was eating with her, and the other members of the Gu family must have eaten, so Gu's mother was really waiting for her. Ye Nuan's heart softened again. It felt so good to have a mother.
