After entering the county town, Mr. Gu found a random inn and stayed at it.
The inn was empty and quiet. It was as if they were the only ones living in the whole inn. It was eerily quiet.
Mr. Gu and others entered the inn and opened four sky-style rooms and eight ground-style rooms. The hired guards were responsible for taking turns to be on duty outside the Tianzi House. Although the rest of the Gu family felt that they did not need to watch any night, after all, they were all countrymen and not worthy of such a big fight, but Mr. Gu waved his hand and stopped everyone's thoughts. .
Apart from the Gu family, there were no other residents in this inn, which made Mr. Gu suspicious, so he decided to eat some dry food for everyone in the evening. He would leave the county town early tomorrow morning and find a place to cook and cook delicious meals. .
There is no point in everyone, after all, they ate too much at lunch, and most of them are not very hungry.
Especially for Tianbao, she bought a lot of pastries in Fenglai County when she came here. Mrs. Gu was afraid that she would be hungry all the way, so she fed her something to eat, or stuffed it into her mouth while she was not paying attention. In his mouth, she turned into a little hamster.
There were pastries and tea, which made Tianbao so stunned that he didn't dare to move a step.
Mrs. Gu felt that the reason why Tianbao was so energetic was because he was not full, so she kept feeding him hard.
Being active has become the shortcoming of Tian Bao.
Everyone ate a simple meal, which was paired with spicy dried radish, and found it very tasty. After eating, the Gu family went to rest one after another.
There were people walking back and forth in the corridor of the room, making the already silent night a little more tense.
Tianbao slept with Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu at night. He was too energetic during the day, so when the night got darker, sleepiness swept over him. He didn't even take off his clothes and fell asleep, holding hot water outside the door. Mrs. Gu, who came in, had just placed the wooden basin she was holding on the ground, planning to let Tian Bao come over and wash her feet.
But when he turned around and looked at the bed, he found that Tianbao was holding on to the collar of his pink dress, leaning down on the quilt, breathing evenly, and obviously fell asleep.
Old Mrs. Gu suddenly felt that it was funny, so she walked forward and sat on the bedside to take off Tianbao's clothes. When she just stretched out her hand to move the little chubby hand away, the sleeping little dumpling began to groan. Old Mrs. Gu He quickly patted his back and coaxed her.
"Sweetie, honey, can you please take off your clothes? We can sleep with our clothes off. It won't be comfortable to sleep with our clothes on."
"Huh, mom, take off your clothes and let the baby sleep." Nuonuo's voice was filled with the sound of milk. Tianbao moved in his sleep and replied unconsciously.
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she smiled softly, her brows and eyes became softer, and the movements of her hands became lighter. After she took off Tianbao's clothes, she soaked the hand towel in hot water. When the hand towel was full of hot water, she took out the hand towel with her plain white fingers and squeezed out the excess hot water on the hand towel regardless of the scalding hot water. He took it off, and after the hand towel had cooled down a bit, he slowly wiped Tian Bao's body.
The plain white fingertips were glowing with red.
As soon as Mr. Gu entered the room, he saw Mrs. Gu's loving look on her face and her red hands.
He walked forward quickly, took the towel from Old Mrs. Gu's hand, moved Old Mrs. Gu to the side, and then said in a hoarse voice: "I'll take care of these little things. Look, your hands are all red." What's going on?" He then wiped Tianbao's body for Mrs. Gu.
Old Mrs. Gu had a smile on her face and was very sweet in her heart, but she still glanced at Mr. Gu with an angry look on her face: "How can this be a trivial matter? You take care of everything about Tianbao as a child, which makes me seem like a serious person." My mother is a little useless."
When Mr. Gu heard this, he just smiled and said, "You can worry about Tianbao's birth. As a father, I must not be left behind." After wiping Tianbao's body. , the smile on his face faded, he sighed, and continued: "From now on, it's up to you to clean yourself."
My daughter is getting older, so she has to avoid suspicion.
Mrs. Gu nodded, knowing what Mr. Gu meant. She knew that Mr. Gu was sad, so after thinking about it, she changed the topic: "Are those guards sent by the family today?"
When Mr. Gu heard this, the sad look on his face was gone, but there was a bit of anger. He immediately said angrily: "No, he was sent by elder brother."
"Since I was sent, don't show off your face to others every day, and don't be angry with elder brother." Old Mrs. Gu had a headache when she thought of this. The Gu family in Beijing is a well-known family, but the only flaw is that the ancestors gave birth to seven sons and no daughters.
The old couple hoped that their daughter-in-law would give birth to a daughter in the future, but things went against their wishes. Grandsons were born one after another, but there was no granddaughter.
Mr. Gu, on the other hand, was deeply disappointed by what happened in Beijing that year, so he found a place to live in seclusion in the mountains. It was at this time that she met him.
And these years have passed, Mr. Gu has to stimulate the people in the old house every year, especially after the birth of Tianbao in the past two years, the stimulation has become more and more diligent, and she can no longer stand it.
It's rare that my father-in-law and the others can bear it and not come to see him.
It's just that Mrs. Gu didn't know that it wasn't that she wouldn't come, but that she couldn't come.
Mr. Gu listened to Mrs. Gu's dissuasion and hummed a few times. When Quan heard it, he picked up the cold wooden basin and turned around and walked out.
As soon as I went out, I happened to meet Boss Gu coming out of the next room.
Mr. Gu looked at the closed door, then at the basin of foot-washing water held by his eldest son, and then silently lowered his head to look at the good shoes on Mr. Gu's feet.
"Hey, where are you bringing your wife's foot-washing water?"
Mr. Gu saw the opportunity to make fun of him and hurriedly said as Mr. Gu turned around and left.
Mr. Gu almost stumbled and fell to the ground. Fortunately, he steadied himself in time, coughed slightly, and said slowly, "Dad, this is for me."
"I am serving it for myself?" Mr. Gu asked.
"Yeah." The tips of Mr. Gu's ears were slightly red, his back was turned to Mr. Gu, and he hummed softly.
But after hearing this, Mr. Gu sneered, making Mr. Gu blush instantly. After all, it was the second time he had done it to bring his wife footbath, but it was the first time he was caught.
Mr. Gu waved the wooden basin in front of Mr. Gu, raised his eyebrows and said, "Did you see, I'm going to bring water for my wife's feet."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the kitchen, taking just one step. He turned around and said, "Coward."
Boss Gu blushed with embarrassment, poured the water in a hurry, and hurried back to the room.
As soon as she put the child to sleep, she saw Boss Gu rushing in. Qin Xue was a little puzzled. Before she could think about it carefully, she asked, "But what happened?"
