Chapter 360 - 360: Very Fruitful
Her daughter, Su Le, had risen earlier and was entertaining herself in bed. Upon seeing her mother awake, the little girl clapped her hands in delight, encouraging her mother to rise and start the day.
After dressing, Gu Zi picked up her daughter, pinching her chubby cheeks affectionately before heading downstairs.
In the kitchen, she found breakfast left for her by her husband.
She picked up a large dumpling to eat. The dumplings, as always, were generously sized.
However, they had cooled, so after eating one, she took the plate of dumplings into the kitchen and fried them into potstickers. She and Su Le enjoyed a small feast.
She then steamed some rice and prepared a few simple dishes before heading upstairs to read.
Gu Zi calculated that she had more than half a year before her advancement exams. This was ample time for her, but she didn’t want to slack off. Whenever she had spare time, she would flip through her books.
Seeing her mother reading, Su Le imitated her, picking up a dictionary to flip through. The little girl looked as if she could truly understand the words, and Gu Zi found her heart filled with joy whenever she saw this.
Her little Lele was simply too adorable!
When it was nearly time, Gu Zi put down her book, tidied up her desk, and lifted Su Le onto her lap, straining slightly with the effort.
She suddenly realized that her little girl had gained quite a bit of weight, her face now plump with baby fat. This was proof that her efforts in raising her child were fruitful.
She decided to take Lele to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up when she had the time, just to be completely at ease.
For lunch, Gu Zi prepared pickled cabbage fish slices, a cold mixed three-shred dish, and a fresh vegetable soup. She wasn’t particularly hungry, so she packed everything up, planning to take it to the pig farm to share lunch with Su Shen.
Before leaving the house, Gu Zi prepared a bottle of milk for Lele to drink. The little girl accepted the bottle and began to drink eagerly.
On their way, they ran into Aunt Zhang and Shi Tou. Little Lele waved her milk bottle in greeting, amusing Aunt Zhang to no end.
Upon arriving at the pig farm, Gu Zi was greeted with warm welcomes, with people affectionately calling her “sister-in-law.”
As they observed the plump and joyful Lele, their admiration for Gu Zi’s beauty and kindness only grew.
Jin Long hurried over, eager to know what delicious treats Gu Zi had brought that day. However, before he could finish his sentence, Su Shen appeared and led his wife and daughter away to his office.
Jin Long tried to follow, but found the office door locked against him. He could only sigh at his brother’s protective nature.
Gu Zi watched Jin Long’s retreating figure with a sympathetic smile, remarking, “Jin Long just wanted to share in the food. I made plenty, it’s no trouble.”
She then served him a piece of fish and a large, round fried egg. The egg, having been deep-fried and then soaked in vegetable soup, was filled with a fragrant broth.
One bite released a burst of crisp, savory flavor that was utterly satisfying.
The man, while eating, casually remarked, “Don’t worry about him, he won’t starve. You should eat too.”
He was a man of few words, but his love was evident in his actions. He served her food, handed her napkins, fed their daughter, and even draped his coat over her when he felt a chill in the air, always fearing she might catch a cold.
Knowing how busy he was with work, Gu Zi didn’t plan to stay long. After sharing lunch with him, she left with their daughter, inviting her sister-in-law who was delivering food to Lin Cheng to continue learning how to make spicy soup at her place.
Li Hua was a quick learner. The spicy soup she made this time showed significant improvement, and Gu Zi estimated that she would soon master the dish. However, Gu Zi reminded her that she still needed to practice the technique of washing the gluten.
After finishing the spicy soup for the day, the two sisters-in-law chatted for a while. Li Hua had visited her father in the city the day before and assured Gu Zi that he was recovering well.
As for Lin Miao’s wedding banquet, their parents had decided not to attend, deeming it unnecessary.
Lin Miao’s parents, who had raised her for over a decade, couldn’t bear to see her taken away by the police for investigation on her happiest day. They thought it best not to attend.
On the day of Lin Miao’s wedding banquet, a light rain began to fall. Lin Miao’s parents rose early, watching the rain outside the window and reminiscing about their memories with their daughter. Despite their efforts, tears inevitably welled up in their eyes.
But this would be the last time. They were determined to sever ties with the daughter who was no longer theirs, hoping that she would mend her ways and live a good life with Gong Zhan.
In Daqing Village, Su Shen and Gu Zi prepared to leave after breakfast. Gu Zi reminded the boys to take good care of their sister, assuring them that Aunt Zhang would come to help look after her once she finished her farm work..
