From childhood to adulthood, Gu Qingning has never been away from him for such a long time.
Seeing Gu Qingning's bulging belly, Gu Zhang felt a pang of sadness in his nose: "Son, I've wronged you these past few years."
He walked up to her, grabbed her hand with red eyes, and said, "You've lost weight, and your hands are rough. You've really suffered in the countryside these past two years! Qing Ning, during the time you were gone, Daddy regretted it every day. I wish I had been nicer to you!"
Gu Qingning was also moved by what she said, and tears began to flow unconsciously.
She whispered, "Dad, you have more and more white hairs on your head. You should eat more nutrition every day, stop being so frugal, and smoke less!"
Although it was just a few simple words of concern, Gu Zhang couldn't help but turned his back and quietly wiped away his tears.
To be honest, he couldn't remember when anyone had cared about him so much.
Even if Gu Qingqing occasionally cared about him, it was only to achieve some purpose.
He is not innocent, he knows it in his heart, but he just loves the mother and daughter too much, so he often indulges them again and again.
But Gu Qingning's love for him was pure and she would never ask him for anything. His daughter's sincere love made him feel that he owed her even more.
He took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, Dad is fine. Dad, there are people to take care of you. But you have suffered so much in the countryside in the past two years. You haven't experienced this since you were a child... I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore. I'm glad you're back. Don't leave now that you're back!"
Gu Qingning wanted to say something, but she heard Gu Qingqing suddenly rushing towards her like an angry leopard.
"Dad, my sister just kicked me secretly when no one was paying attention. Look at what I got kicked in!"
She quickly lifted up her trouser legs, revealing her bruises.
In fact, it was too chaotic just now, and she couldn't be sure that it was indeed Gu Qingning who did it. However, since she already had scars on her body, how could she not use them to frame Gu Qingning?
Gu Zhang took a look and felt a little distressed, but when he looked at Gu Qingning again, he just thought that how could such a kind daughter of his do such a vicious thing?
He immediately said, "Did you misunderstand your sister? Have you forgotten that when you were at home, your sister often gave things to you, and even helped you go to the countryside!"
"What do you mean she went for me? Didn't my sister apply for it herself?"
Gu Qingqing is not as scheming as her mother, so she naturally says whatever she thinks.
She even grabbed her things and said, "Look! As soon as my sister came back, she threw all her things at me and bullied me like this. Dad, don't you care about her?"
Gu Qingning quickly wiped away her tears: "Dad, shouldn't I have come back?"
Just this one sentence completely made Gu Zhang lose his mind.
"How can you say that? This will always be your home. If you don't come back here, where else can you go?"
He quickly grabbed Gu Qingqing and said, "Hurry up and apologize to your sister. I told you not to go to your sister's room, but you secretly changed the lock. Now you deserve to have your things thrown out! If I hear you say bad things about your sister again, you'll have to rent a house and move out!"
Gu Qingqing’s eyes widened so wide that she even suspected there was something wrong with her ears.
"Dad, what do you mean?" She was extremely confused.
"You're already so old, yet you're still so naive. You still want your sister to give in to you! Look at your sister, how tortured she is now. She suffered all this for you, and you're still not satisfied?"
Gu Qingqing couldn't stand this kind of grievance: "Dad..."
"Say one more word, and I'll punish you by not letting you have dinner today!"
It was rare for Gu Zhang to be so impartial, and she was so angry that she burst into tears.
Gu Qingning deliberately gave her a provocative smile where Gu Zhang couldn't see.
Gu Qingqing was so angry that her lungs were about to explode!
After entering the house, Gu Qingning quickly introduced Lu Changqing to her.
"Dad, this is my partner!"
Lu Changqing is a handsome man, and there is nothing wrong with his appearance.
Gu Zhang certainly looked down on the poor boy from the countryside, but there was really nothing wrong with Lu Changqing's appearance.
Gu Zhang also knew that his daughter was a little bit of a fangirl, so it was normal for her to lose control when she saw such a handsome guy.
But he still kept a straight face and acted like an old man: "Even if you two got married in a hurry, you should have waited for two more years. Are your families in a hurry to have a child? Qingning is still so young, and you let her get pregnant. Who knows how bad it will hurt her body!"
Gu Qingning was also raised under his careful care. Whenever he thought of this, he felt extremely distressed.
Lu Changqing quickly took out the cigarettes, alcohol and tea that he had prepared long ago.
"Dad, you're right. Qing Ning's pregnancy is my fault. I will never do anything so impulsive again!
Don't worry, once this child is born, whether it's a boy or a girl, I won't have another one. Qing Ning's health is the most important thing."
This made Gu Zhang look at him with new eyes.
Lu Changqing took the initiative to make tea and handed it over.
Gu Zhang wanted to smoke, but he stopped her: "Qing Ning is pregnant now, please bear with it for a while!"
"Yes, yes, I was so happy that I forgot all about it!"
Gu Zhang touched his nose and put the cigarette back in his pocket: "You can not care, but don't your parents care too?"
Lu Changqing smiled and said, "My situation is quite complicated. I can't explain it clearly in a short time. Please wait for us to have a good chat one night and I will explain it to you in detail!"
But don't worry, my family won't put any pressure on Qing Ning, and we definitely won't favor boys over girls!"
Although Gu Zhang was confused, he was quite satisfied with the answer.
Gu Qingning also took the opportunity to change the subject.
"Dad, don't worry. I'm living a good life in the countryside. I work from sunrise to sunset every day. It's more regular than my life in the city!"
When Gu Zhang heard this, his facial features wrinkled into a ball.
"Are you still looking at Father Meng? Do you think I don't know? I've been to the countryside to investigate. The conditions there are horribly difficult. You've been raised in a sugar jar since you were a child. How much hardship must you have endured?"
Gu Qingning smiled and said, "It's actually not that bad. I'm pregnant now, so I haven't been working much. But a lot of things have happened in the educated youth team."
She said that she heard that several female educated youth in the neighboring village were raped by bachelors in the village, which was very dangerous.
He also talked about the incident where human traffickers came to kidnap people.
Gu Zhang's heart was bleeding when he heard this. He kept touching his daughter's hand and blamed himself for not being able to give his daughter a good place.
"Qing Ning, don't worry, you're back now, Dad will definitely take care of it for you!"
