Although Shen Ningsi didn't want Gu Hong to appear in their house, Shen Ningsi had to admit that Gu Hong was right.
Uncle Gu would definitely be worried if he saw his pale face.
Gu Xiuwu has become much more restrained during this period. Although he is still impatient, he will definitely not fail to take good care of An An.
Shen Ningsi still felt relieved to leave An An Kang Kang to Gu Xiuwu.
Not wanting to bring her illness to the two babies, she didn't doubt it too much, turned into the room and closed her eyes.
Game meat has a firmer texture than regular meat and requires longer cooking time.
Shen Ningsi closed his eyes peacefully and fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up again, a strong aroma of meat was lingering around his nose.
Taking the old man's taste into consideration, Shen Ningsi used fewer irritating seasonings this time and only used a little bit of spices to increase the mellow taste.
She moved her steps, went into the kitchen, poked the meat hard with clean bamboo chopsticks, and cut it into pieces of appropriate size.
The rich reddish-brown color looks even more delicious amidst the layers of heat. There is a noticeable resistance when the chopsticks go in, but you can tell at a glance that the meat is definitely not difficult to chew, it just enhances the taste.
Ana Shen couldn’t help but curled her lips.
Gu Xiuwen completed the task assigned by Shen Ningsi and hurried back.
Seeing Shen Ningsi smiling with satisfaction in the kitchen, he went up to her with a smile.
"It seems that mother is also very satisfied with the braised meat cooked this time."
Seeing Shen Ningsi fall in love with him, Gu Xiuwen couldn't help but straighten his back.
"Mother, I have secretly sent all the potatoes in that sack to Third Grandpa Gu's house. I also told Third Grandpa's family to open the sack to anyone who comes to see it, and to tell them that if anyone sets their sights on these potatoes, General Gu will come after them."
This mature young man couldn't help but feel nervous in front of his mother one day.
After completing the task assigned by his elders, he even developed a sense of pride from the inside out, hoping to receive praise from them.
Shen Ningsi smiled and rubbed Gu Xiuwen's hair. Since Gu Hong left, Gu Xiuwen, as the eldest son of the family, has taken on the responsibility of taking care of the whole family. If Shen Ningsi handed these things over to an adult, she would worry that the other party would not do a good job.
But when it came to Gu Xiuwen, she never felt nervous.
"Mother knows that Wen'er always does these things beautifully."
Gu Xiuwen hadn't had his head rubbed for a long time. He felt the warmth coming from above his head, and his face felt a little hot.
Shen Ningsi didn't notice the young man's nervous and happy eyes. She just narrowed her eyes slightly and continued.
"It will be like this from now on. If someone comes here and just mentions the name General Gu, I won't believe anyone else will dare to come and cause trouble."
Apart from anything else, the two words "Gu Hong" are indeed very useful.
There was a sly glint in those narrow eyes, as smart as a little fox, which did not make people feel disgusted at all. Instead, people felt that Shen Ningsi was a very approachable person.
Shen Ningsi continued slowly, "But Wen'er, you have to remember that it doesn't matter what I call General Gu. General Gu and I have no relatives or friends. He treats me well, and I am grateful to him from the bottom of my heart. It's only natural that he treats me badly."
"But you are General Gu's biological child. It is reasonable for you to enjoy General Gu's kindness to you. There is absolutely no need for you to deliberately distance yourself from General Gu."
Shen Ningsi didn't think that after witnessing the prosperity of the capital, Gu Hong would willingly give herself the title of wife.
There are so many things that can be exchanged for the position of Gu Hong’s wife.
She didn't think that she would live with Gu Hong for the rest of her life, but since Gu Hong insisted on keeping Gu Xiuwen and the others by his side, she naturally had to fight for the interests of these three children.
Shen Ningsi lowered her voice and said gently, "Wen'er, mother doesn't want you to deliberately please General Gu so that General Gu will give you benefits. Mother just doesn't want you and your biological father to hate each other in the future."
Gu Xiuwen certainly understood Shen Ningsi's painstaking efforts. A complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed all the words back into his stomach.
"Mother, don't just think about us. We should also make more plans for An An and Kang Kang. Let's... forget it..."
"After all, mother, no matter what, father will never treat An An Kang Kang unfairly."
Shen Ningsi smiled. This was what Gu Xiuwen didn’t understand. Even if a young man was mature, he still couldn’t understand people’s hearts.
"On the contrary, mother feels that General Gu will never treat you and Wu'er unfairly no matter what."
"Although An'an and Kang'kang are General Gu's biological children, they came out of my belly. General Gu never saw me carry them for ten months. From now on, I will not let An'an and Kang'kang get close to him. On the contrary, you are the ones who were raised by General Gu's eyes. You have his blood in your veins. Isn't it obvious to anyone with a clear eye who he treats better than others?"
After saying this, Shen Ningsi gently rubbed Gu Xiuwen’s hair.
"Okay, go see what An An and Kang Kang are doing. Mom made some thick rice soup and will send it over later. You can also have some fun with An An and Kang Kang."
Gu Xiuwen had a lot to say, but these things were too complicated to say out loud. He didn't know how to start, nor did he know what Shen Ningsi would think after hearing this.
In the end, Gu Xiuwen lowered his head and went to An An Kang Kang's room. Just as he reached the door, he stopped in his tracks.
"Yun'er, go get that wave drum. Kang Kang seems to like the one with the red bell more. I'm holding this little kite, but he won't even look at it."
"Daddy, you are so impatient. Kang Kang is still so young. He hasn't even seen what the kite in your hand looks like, but you are so anxious to take it away."
Gu Yuner said in a baby voice, "Kang Kang doesn't like that little wave drum. He just likes things that make sounds."
"You know what, Kang Kang's personality is really similar to mine, so lively too. If mother saw Kang Kang like this, I'm afraid she would have a headache again."
Gu Hong looked over coldly and said, "What are you talking about? Even if this brat's personality is similar to someone else, it's only similar to me. What does it have to do with you?"
"I am their real father."
Hearing this, Gu Xiuwu frowned tightly, but after thinking about Gu Hong, it seemed that what he said did make some sense.
But he refused to give in.
Gu Xiuwu crossed his arms in front of him and said, "Even if it's related to you, it's still a question whether Kang Kang is willing to call you dad."
