Lin Suqing spent the money to give gifts to the Gu family for two reasons. Firstly, it was her first time visiting the Gu family, and she wanted to be polite. Secondly, she wanted them to know how much she cherished Lin Han.
Tell them to treat Lin Han better. Lin Han has an aunt who loves her very much and is willing to do anything for her.
The Gu family knew about Lin Suqing's family circumstances. This time, she spent most of her savings on gifts, hoping to show the Gu family how much she valued Lin Han and to make them value their precious child.
"My dear in-laws, you're too kind. These are just some inexpensive little things, but I'm willing to spend them for Hanhan's sake."
The three chatted for a while longer, and Lin Suqing offered to help in the kitchen.
When Qin Shuman is at home, she helps Grandma Jiang with kitchen chores, but today there are guests, and she can't just leave them to go to the kitchen on her own. She was a little surprised when Lin Suqing suggested going to the kitchen to help.
"Aunt Hanhan, you can just sit here and talk to Hanhan. I'll go help."
Lin Suqing insisted, "I can't stay idle, so please let me go and help out."
Hanhan has been spoiled by me and can't do any chores. She's never even stepped foot in the kitchen. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all.
It sounds like they're criticizing Lin Han for not being able to do housework, but in reality, her family is telling her in-laws, "Our Hanhan never did any housework when she was at home. Now that she's married into your Gu family, don't expect her to be able to cook. She's not good at it."
Qin Shuman is a shrewd person, so how could she not understand?
"Hanhan is lucky that she can't cook. There are me and Grandma at home, so she doesn't need to lift a finger. Besides, Gu Qizheng can cook, so even if the young couple moves out to live separately, they won't go hungry."
Lin Suqing was surprised that her future mother-in-law was so understanding, and that the men in a powerful and wealthy family like the Gu family could actually cook.
That put her at ease.
"Okay, okay, I'll go help the old lady."
The two entered the kitchen, and Lin Han wanted to follow, but Lin Suqing blocked her from entering.
"Go outside and have some tea. What are you doing meddling in the kitchen? You're doing a huge favor by not helping."
Lin Han pouted, "Am I really that bad?"
Lin Suqing scolded her for being stupid, "This is not the time to be competitive, go sit down."
After Gu Qizheng and Gu Huaiming put their luggage away at home, they went to the military base again. By the time they returned, it was already noon.
Grandma Jiang and Qin Shuman set the food on the table before Gu Huaiming and Gu Qizheng came in from outside.
Grandpa Gu was in a good mood today and brought out a bottle of his treasured wine.
Lin Suqing could also have a drink, but Gu Huaiming and Gu Qizheng had to go to work in the afternoon, so they could only drink tea.
After dinner, Qin Shuman prepared a room for Lin Suqing.
"Aunt Hanhan, please stay here without worry. Hanhan is pregnant now and can't go anywhere else. You two can catch up and keep Hanhan company."
Lin Suqing spent half a day at the Gu family home and felt the love and care that everyone in the Gu family gave to Lin Han, especially Gu Qizheng, whose eyes never left Lin Han.
She was initially worried, but now she has no more concerns.
"Okay, thank you for your trouble, Mother-in-law. I'll be staying here for a while and will be bothering you."
"Aunt Hanhan, you're too kind. I'm so glad you came. If you're happy, our whole family is happy. Please feel free to stay. If you need anything, just tell me. You can also tell Hanhan. She's the lady of the house too."
