Ye Jiaying took Gu Ning to sit in the rest area and carefully explained to her the nature of Gu Qinglin's work.
Gu Ning is three years old and has asked where her father has gone before. Ye Jiaying did not give her a perfunctory answer just because she is young. She explained seriously that her father was at work. This was the first time she cried because of her father.
She was too young to understand why her dad couldn't come home from work.
Ye Jiaying was talking to Gu Ning about her father's work when an old voice interrupted them.
"Xiao Ye, Ningning is already this big."
Ye Jiaying turned around and saw Academician Chen, Gu Qinglin's leader.
He was the witness when they got married.
"Mr. Chen."
Ye Jiaying stood up, greeted Academician Chen, then picked up Gu Ning and asked her to call him grandpa.
Gu Ning was not afraid of strangers and called out "Grandpa" in a crisp voice.
Academician Chen touched her little face happily, sighing that the child had grown so big.
Then he felt a little embarrassed.
Xiao Gu’s children are already so grown up, and he hasn’t been home for more than two years. Now that the family members are coming, he feels embarrassed.
"Xiao Ye, is there any difficulty in coming here today?"
Although many people in the Academy of Sciences did not go home for several years due to confidential projects, few of their families came to visit. He was afraid that there were some problems and asked with concern.
"I'm going back to my parents' home today, and I'll bring Ningning to see where Dad works."
Ye Jiaying explained.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences is close to Yejia Village, so I can go back and visit Ye’s father and mother.
"Grandpa, let's see why Dad doesn't come home."
Little Gu Ning blinked his big eyes and answered seriously.
As soon as these words were spoken, Academician Chen felt his face turn red.
"Ningning, Mom just explained it to you, right?"
Ye Jiaying pinched little Gu Ning's face, feeling a little helpless.
"Ningning, are you missing your dad?"
Academician Chen felt a little embarrassed, as if it was him who caused the little girl to not be able to see her father.
"I haven't met Dad yet."
The little girl nodded seriously and said.
"Dad will be back soon."
Academician Chen comforted.
Ye Jiaying followed Academician Chen's words and coaxed Gu Ning for a few words before saying goodbye.
As a family member, she naturally knew what she could ask and what she could not ask. She did not ask whether Academician Chen Gu Qinglin was in the hospital or when he would be back.
Because she knew that if Gu Qinglin was there, he would not refuse to let her see him, and if he was there, he would not refuse to call her.
After leaving the Chinese Academy of Sciences, she drove back to Yejia Village.
Little Gu Ning returned to his grandmother's house and happily went to the village to play with his brother.
Sister Ye gave birth to a boy who was two months older than Gu Ning and had a very good relationship with Gu Ning.
Mother Ye didn't care about the two little ones. They wouldn't get lost in Yejia Village anyway.
She pulled Ye Jiaying into the house and asked her.
"Xiao Gu hasn't come back yet."
Ye Jiaying nodded and sighed.
"The children are running around the house and don't even recognize their own father."
Ye Jiaying smiled and told the story of Gu Ning crying yesterday.
Ye's mother sighed again.
My son-in-law is good in every way except that he is not at home every day.
It’s okay now that her grandparents are around, but what will she do if they’re gone in the future?
Thinking of this, she said.
"Xiao Gu is good in every way, but she can't take care of the family. You're a woman, taking care of a child, how tiring it must be."
"Mom, I can't take care of the child alone. I have Aunt Lou and my grandparents."
If she is a weak woman who has no power and no money, she will really collapse if she has to raise a child by herself.
But she is not, and besides, she is very good at spending money.
Now that Aunt Lou is at home, she hardly has to do anything.
When Gu Ning grows up and goes to school, she will hire a teacher.
Live with an aunt, learn with an aunt, she is only responsible for her mental health and playing with her, where is she tired.
You will feel tired if you don’t have money.
