Gu Qizheng felt sorry for Lin Han, but he didn't rely entirely on asking others for help. He led by example himself.
Aside from work hours, he almost always takes care of his three babies himself as soon as he gets home. He's become increasingly skilled at washing and massaging their tummy.
Even Grandpa Gu joked that Gu Qizheng could earn money by babysitting instead of joining the army.
Lin Han immediately pictured Gu Qizheng wearing an apron and a nurse's cap in her mind.
I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Do you think Gu Hong deliberately made things difficult for Aunt Li? I'll talk to Grandpa and Grandma about this."
After all, Gu Hong was Old Master Gu's cousin and had even saved his life. The family only tolerated Gu Hong because of Old Master Gu's reputation.
If it weren't for this connection, Gu Hong would have been kicked out long ago.
After attending the wedding of their old comrade-in-arms' grandson, Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Gu returned home and immediately washed their hands and went upstairs to see their grandson.
Lin Han and Gu Qizheng were singing nursery rhymes while holding the baby, and the elderly couple couldn't help but smile at the heartwarming scene.
"Oh my little darling, your great-grandfather misses you as soon as he's gone for a short while."
"Let Great-Grandpa hold you!"
The Gu family, including Grandpa Gu, took excellent care of the child and held him in perfect posture, so Lin Han never worried that her family would not take good care of the baby.
After seeing the baby, Grandma Jiang was overjoyed and thought of stewing the lotus root she had specially brought back from Grandpa Gu's old comrade-in-arms's house for Lin Han. She turned around to tell Aunt Li, but suddenly realized that she hadn't seen Aunt Li at all since she came home.
"Where's Aunt Li? Why isn't she here?" Grandma Jiang asked in confusion.
Lin Han hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the elderly couple that Aunt Li had gone home and quit her job.
The elderly couple were both very surprised and asked in unison, "They're quitting? How could this happen?"
Lin Han explained, "I didn't see the specific details of what happened, but Aunt Li went downstairs to wash diapers and never came back. Aunt Gu Hong said that Aunt Li had left. So I'm wondering if it might be related to Aunt Gu Hong?"
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Jiang's face immediately darkened. She glared at Gu Hong and demanded, "What did you do to Aunt Li?"
Gu Hong immediately felt wronged and quickly defended herself, saying, "I didn't do anything. I just said a few words to her, and then she left on her own."
Besides, there was no one else at home at the time, and Lin Han's story was only one side of the story. Grandpa Gu might not believe it. As long as we stick to our guns and deny it, that's fine.
"I'm innocent! I didn't do anything! She wanted to leave on her own, what does that have to do with me?"
Grandma Jiang didn't believe it. Gu Hong had caused a lot of trouble since she came to the house, and Aunt Li was a hardworking and reliable person. Even if she left, she wouldn't leave without saying goodbye.
Actually, even Grandpa Gu didn't really trust Gu Hong.
