Chapter 70: Night Talk
Knowing that there is a black market near the train station, the two of them don't plan to change places. When I returned to my room, I washed up with hot water in the water room, and then rested early.
In the military compound at the other end of Linyang City, Zhou Mingjuan coaxed Gu Mingzhu to sleep with a pair of new leather shoes, and pushed open the door of the master bedroom with a cup of hot water.
Gu Huaiqing was leaning on the bedside reading the newspaper, took the hot water handed over by Zhou Mingjuan, drank a few sips, and asked, "Mingzhu slept?" ”
Zhou Mingjuan took the empty water cup in Gu Huaiqing's hand, put it on the table casually, and sat down next to Gu Huaiqing, as if he was wronged and complained:
"Hmm. You don't know how difficult Mingzhu is to make trouble, I was so entangled that I had no choice, so I promised to buy her new leather shoes this weekend. ”
"Buying new leather shoes? Didn't you just buy her a pair last month? Gu Huaiqing put down the newspaper and frowned tightly, "Isn't Mingzhu's dress too outstanding?" It's even more eye-catching than Commander Bai's daughter, and you'll have to pay attention to it in the future. ”
Zhou Mingjuan's lowered eyes flashed with annoyance, and she softened her voice even more:
"Brother Qing, Mingzhu is not eye-catching. It's December, Mingzhu is still wearing single leather shoes, we can't let the child freeze for the sake of a good reputation, right? Besides, both of us are paid, and there is only one child in the family, Mingzhu, so it is reasonable to be particular about dressing. ”
Seeing that Gu Huaiqing's brows were a little looser, Zhou Mingjuan continued unhurriedly:
"You men just don't know how to dress. We have a lot of clothes in Mingzhu that I make of defective fabrics, a piece of cloth is only a few dollars, and I can make a few new clothes, and the people in these courtyards know that what is eye-catching.
If you want to talk about the real eye, it is still the three children of Commander Bai's family. The eldest of Commander Bai's family is only sixteen this year, and he has just entered high school, and he wears a watch on his hand, which is still a foreign product, and it costs three or four hundred yuan! Commander Bai's daughter is as big as our pearl, and the clothes she wears are all sent from the capital, and they are made of the latest fabrics, which are not sold in our Linyang Department Store.
One piece of clothing can top ten of our pearls, tell me, who is this eye? ”
Zhou Mingjuan's facial features are good, her person is also white, and she is well maintained, she is in her early thirties, still slender, and there is no wrinkle in the corners of her eyes.
When she lowered her head and looked at Gu Huaiqing as she spoke, the expression on her face seemed to be resentful, her eyes were sparkling, and she had both the coquettish style of a mature woman and the sweetness and weakness of a girl, Gu Huaiqing was fascinated by just one glance.
Stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Zhou Mingjuan's waist, and whispered to her: "Mingjuan, I don't understand this, I said the wrong thing." Well, I'll accompany you to the department store this weekend, buy leather shoes for Mingzhu, and then buy you new clothes, okay? ”
Zhou Mingjuan hesitated for a moment, frowned and shook her head and refused, "Forget it, there will be more places to use money at home in the future, so it is better to save a little." ”
"What's wrong? Can you use less money at home? ”
"Alas......" Zhou Mingjuan sighed and leaned into Gu Huaiqing's arms, "If there is only one child in the family, Mingzhu will naturally not be short of money, but ...... Brother Qing, no matter which child we take home in the future, eat, dress, go to school, and go out to socialize, I have to give the child a good treatment in advance, at least the treatment cannot be worse than Mingzhu, otherwise my stepmother will not do well.
If the family doesn't take advantage of the money and treats the children lightly, not only will my face be bad, but even you will have to lose face.
Our family has such a little family foundation, let's use it on the children. ”
Zhou Mingjuan said that it was a sincere and profound understanding, Gu Huaiqing was very distressed when he heard it, and immediately hugged Zhou Mingjuan, and said with confidence:
"What are you afraid of, I can't afford to support you as a man, or what's the matter? Buy whatever you like in the future, you don't have to save for me! Besides, even if there is one more mouth in the family, you don't have to be so particular about eating and dressing, the boy's house, just have food and clothing, you don't take it too seriously, get used to him! ”
Zhou Huaiqing said that he didn't give up the plan to take his son back, and Zhou Mingjuan became more and more irritable.
Turned over and sat up from the bed, his eyes were covered with mist, and he looked at Gu Huaiqing aggrievedly and said, "Brother Qing, I don't know the bottom in my heart, I'm very worried." ”
"Worried about what?" Gu Huaiqing frowned, and then asked, "Mingjuan, I promised you to only take one son back, but you still don't agree?" ”
"No......" Zhou Mingjuan shook her head and reached out to stroke her lower abdomen, "How could I disagree?" I have been married into the Gu family for so many years, and I have never given birth to a son for you, if you take over the bloodline of the family, I will only be happy for you, how can I stop you. ”
"I'm just worried...... Those two children grew up with the eldest sister, will they have resentment towards us in their hearts? Even if you take it back, will you still think about the eldest sister in your heart? In the future, if the child is out of luck, will he only recognize the eldest sister and not our family? ”
I have to say that Zhou Mingjuan really pinched Gu Huaiqing's lifeblood with every word.
Especially the last sentence, she and Gu Huaiqing, as well as Gu Mingzhu, are invisibly counted as a family, and Gu Guangzong or Gu Shinian, who are about to be taken back, are excluded from her family.
Huaiqing didn't hear a sentence that meant to provoke such an obvious one, or maybe he heard it, but he deliberately ignored it.
"Don't worry, I know these things. As long as he is still surnamed Gu, as long as I am still here, he will not dare to be disrespectful to you. ”
What if you're gone?
These words went over and over again in Zhou Mingjuan's heart, but she didn't dare to ask them after all, she sighed leisurely, leaned on Gu Huaiqing's chest again, and said:
"And Mingzhu, this child, I just tried a sentence today, she cried and said that she didn't want her brother, she didn't even eat dinner, you said that if you really take it back, the two children will not have to fight together? If you have time, persuade your daughter, I can't persuade you. ”
"It's still a child, get along more and have feelings, I'll take the time to pick up the two children after the year, you and Mingzhu pick a pleasing one to stay......"
Gu Huaiqing said vaguely in his mouth, and his hand kept pressing Zhou Mingjuan to lie down......
Early the next morning, Yunshang and Gu Shinian had breakfast early, put everything into the space and went downstairs.
The waiter with big pigtails was still sitting behind the counter, Yunshang ran over with her short legs to say hello, and the waiter rubbed her face for a while before leaving the guest house.
Half an hour later, the two got off the tram at the entrance of the hospital, and before they could stand firmly, two loud rumbling noises came from the sky, shaking people's ears numb, and the ground under their feet was shaking slightly.
