Chapter 441 This Unreliable
The child grows fast, and Jiang's mother doesn't know what size clothes to buy for the child. She can only buy larger clothes so that the child can still wear the clothes. If the clothes are too small, she will have to spend a lot of time to alter them.
"Aunt, it's better if the clothes are bigger. He has a lot of clothes to wear in winter, and bigger clothes are better for him to wear."
Jiang's mother brought over a lot of things, all of which were nutritional supplements. She bought two of each and asked Shen Shuyu to take them.
The relationship between the two families is so close, Shen Shuyu is not polite to Jiang's mother, they interact with each other and their relationship becomes closer and closer.
Mother-in-law came, Shen Qiu wanted to take a day or two off to accompany her mother-in-law here, but Jiang's mother waved her hand and said, "Mom doesn't need you to accompany me. I'm fine staying at home by myself. You go to work, and I'll cook and wait for you to come back."
"Then I'm going to work, mom."
"go Go."
Jiang's mother was alone at home, but she was not idle either. The vegetable patch in the yard had not been tidied up yet, so she took a hoe and tidied it up. Her daughter-in-law was pregnant, so she went to a fellow villager's house to exchange a few chickens.
Knowing that Shen Qiu was pregnant, Shen Shuyu went to catch chicks and raise them the next day. When Shen Qiu gave birth to the baby, the chickens would be edible and there would be no need to buy them.
When I got home from get off work, I saw Jiang's mother carrying chickens back. "Aunt, you changed so many chickens."
"Xiao Qiu is pregnant, so I thought of getting two more chickens so she can drink chicken soup anytime she wants.
I'm going to make chicken soup tonight, and Shu Yu wants to come over to drink it."
"Okay, we have mushrooms at home. I'll bring them over later." She and Xiaoqiu both love eating mushrooms.
This time, Gu Jiandong and his team returned from the mission very quickly, in less than a week.
They came back in the middle of the night. Shen Shuyu was sleeping so soundly that she didn't even know Gu Jiandong had come back.
When she heard some noise in the kitchen in the morning, she thought it was Xiaoqiu. "Xiaoqiu, why are you here so early?"
Gu Jiandong, wearing an apron and holding a spatula, poked his head out with a grin, "Shu Yu, it's me. I'm back."
Shen Shuyu trotted up and threw herself into his arms, "Gu Jiandong, when did you come back?"
Shen Jiandong thought about her head, and when he raised his hand halfway, he remembered that his hand was stained with oil, so he hugged her empty-handed, "I came back in the middle of the night, and I didn't want to wake you up, so I didn't wake you up."
Shen Shuyu lifted up his clothes to check, "You are not injured this time, right? If you are injured, tell me, don't try to hide it from me."
"No injuries, not even a scratch."
Shen Shuyu sniffed her nose and asked, "What's that smell?"
"I fried eggs, but the fire was too big." There were still eggs in the pan, so Gu Jiandong quickly took them out. Fortunately, the eggs were not burnt very well and were still edible.
Breakfast was ready, and Xiaoze woke up. Gu Jiandong took off his apron and said, "Shuyu, you eat first. I'll go and coax Xiaoze."
Xiaoze opened his eyes and didn't see his mother. He howled twice, then looked up and saw his familiar father. His mouth suddenly flattened and he reached out to his father for a hug in a wronged manner.
Gu Jiandong skillfully picked up his son, changed his diaper, helped him pee, and wiped his face with a towel. Only after doing all this did he start feeding Xiaoze.
Shen Shuyu was full and had to go to class, "Gu Jiandong, I have class to go to, Xiaoze, do you want to take care of him or should I?"
"I'll take it. I don't have anything to do today."
Shen Shuyu was not worried that he would not be able to raise his son well, as he raised his son better than she did.
His son is usually more attached to him.
This is Shen Qiu.
When Shen Qiu woke up in the morning and saw someone beside her, she realized that Jiang Ziqiang had returned. He was on a mission, so Shen Qiu couldn't tell him about her pregnancy. Now that he was back, Shen Qiu nudged the man beside her and said, "Ziqiang, I have good news for you."
Jiang Ziqiang was half asleep, and he hugged his wife in his arms, "What's the good news?"
"I'm pregnant, you're going to be a father!"
Jiang Ziqiang reacted after hearing the news. He suspected that he had not woken up yet. He rubbed his ears and got up suddenly. "Xiao Qiu, what did you just say?"
Xiao Qiu repeated, "I'm pregnant, you're going to have a father, are you happy?"
Jiang Ziqiang had tears in his eyes, "Really? I'm going to be a father?"
"Of course, I went to the hospital for a checkup, and the report clearly stated that I wanted to get pregnant. How could it be false?"
Jiang Ziqiang hugged his wife excitedly, "That's great, Xiaoqiu, I'm going to be a father, I'm going to be a father."
Jiang's mother got up and passed by her son and daughter-in-law's room. Her son's voice was too loud, so Jiang's mother took a look and said, "You can hold her, but don't strangle your wife."
Jiang Ziqiang let go of his hand, jumped twice on the kang, put on his clothes and went to show off next door, "Jiandong, I'm going to be a father, I'm going to be a father, Xiaoqiu is pregnant."
Gu Jiandong was happy for him in his heart, but his face was calm, "I know, I know, I'll set up two tables for you tonight to celebrate you becoming a father."
Jiang Ziqiang really had this idea. At his age, his comrades-in-arms all have several children, and his best brother's child is almost one year old. He himself likes children, and he was very happy to hear this news when he came back from the mission.
"We need to set up two tables to reward Xiaoqiu. Come on, let's go out and buy some groceries." Jiang Ziqiang pulled Gu Jiandong out.
Xiaoze was on Gu Jiandong's back, so Gu Jiandong didn't need to carry anything and just went out with him.
"Mom, Xiaoqiu, I'm going out for a while."
Jiang's mother was muttering in the living room, "This guy is unreliable. He didn't even bother to accompany his wife when he just came back. He just ran out in a hurry."
"Xiao Qiu, don't be angry. When he comes back, I'll beat him up."
"Mom, I'm not angry. Ziqiang is going to be a father, so he must be too happy and is showing off."
Even though they sleep on the same kang, Shen Qiu still understands her man.
"Ziqiang is back and you are pregnant, so you don't have to do housework anymore. If there is anything, just tell him to do it. If he wants to eat something, ask him to buy it for you. You can also tell your parents." Jiang's mother said with a smile.
"I know, Mom. I won't treat myself badly." She was still pregnant, and Shen Qiu didn't plan to rely on her man to do everything.
Her life now was much better than those girls in the countryside who were married. She didn't have to work in the fields.
Her mother-in-law is kind, and there are no sisters-in-law who like to cause trouble. Her husband also knows how to care for her. She has a job, and her elder sister is also around.
Jiang Ziqiang and Gu Jiandong went out and brought back a lot of food. "Why did you buy so much? Are you going to invite your comrades to your home for dinner?"
"Aunt, Ziqiang said he's going to be a father, and he's very happy, so he wants to set up two tables."
"Set up two tables to reward Xiaoqiu. Mom, please make more dishes that Xiaoqiu likes. I'll go call my comrades and come back to help you later."
Jiang's mother nodded in satisfaction that her son had such awareness, "Go ahead, I can handle it myself."
It was still early and she could finish it by herself.
"Aunt, I'm with you."
"Okay, help your aunt chop these big bones." There were two ribs, and Jiang's mother planned to use them to make bone soup.
The two of them started to get busy. Shen Shuyu always ate at Shen Qiu's house after get off work. Knowing that they were going to invite their comrades to their house for dinner, Shen Shuyu went back and got some dried vegetables.
"Aunt, these dried vegetables are delicious when used to stir-fry meat or cook soup. I'll leave them here."
