Chapter 605: If your child is the most important thing, then what about me?
After the door opened, the fence over there was almost completely covered with strips of cloth. After bringing it in, Gu Nan and Li Ergou installed the fence together.
"If you're going to live in this house permanently, it would be better to install a heated kang (traditional Chinese bed)," said Gu's mother.
Perhaps it's just a habit, but Gu's mother always felt that this 1.8-meter bed looked a bit small.
And it would probably be quite cold to sleep in during the winter.
"Yes, I plan to have someone build a kang (heated brick bed) after the baby turns one month old," Li Ergou said.
"Will the landlord agree?" Song Zhaodi asked with some concern.
After all, building a kang (heated brick bed) is quite a big undertaking, and you also need to get a stove to heat it.
"It's okay. When we rented the place, the landlord said we could do whatever we wanted with it," Li Ergou reassured Song Zhaodi.
If the landlord allows it, then it would definitely be better to install a heated kang (a traditional Chinese bed-stove), as it would be very warm in winter.
Moreover, in the summer, those earthen kang beds are cooler than regular beds!
"Thank you so much, Auntie, for these past few days," Song Zhaodi said, seeing her mother busy taking care of everything.
"Why are you being so polite? Your parents aren't around, so I'm practically your elder. Isn't it only right that I take care of you?"
"Back in Kaoshan Village, you were the ones who helped with Gu Nan and Su Niannian's wedding." Gu's mother smiled as she poured the boiled water into a thermos.
At this time, the thermos flask was made of metal on the outside and glass on the inside, with a wooden stopper on top.
It's bright red with a pair of mandarin ducks on it, which looks quite festive.
This was also something Li Ergou and Song Zhaodi bought when they got married; they brought it from Kaoshan Village.
The glass inner liner provides fairly good insulation.
Gu Nan also took out some baby formula from the trunk; it's for babies and is quite hard to find.
It was Grandpa Bai who found someone to buy it.
Su Niannian placed it in her spatial storage and had Gu Nan take it out from there.
"This formula can be given to Zhao Di when it's inconvenient for her to feed the baby," Su Niannian said, taking the formula and a glass bottle from Gu Nan.
"Don't make the temperature too high when you're preparing it," Su Niannian explained to Li Ergou how to prepare the milk powder.
Li Ergou nodded quickly and wrote down what Su Niannian said.
After tidying up the place, Gu's mother went to the kitchen to cook.
Su Niannian followed along and together they prepared some food in the kitchen.
There are also things suitable for Song Zhaodi to eat.
After the group finished eating and saw that the house was almost ready, it was getting dark.
"Then we'll head back now, and I'll come back tomorrow," Su Niannian said to Song Zhaodi and Li Ergou.
"Well, my mother should be able to come over in a few days, then you won't have to bother traveling back and forth anymore," Li Ergou said with a grin.
When Song Zhaodi's due date arrived, Li Ergou sent a telegram home and received news that her mother was coming.
Because it was the busy farming season, Li Ergou's father couldn't come.
However, Li Ergou's mother was worried about Song Zhaodi and the baby, and still planned to come and take care of her during her postpartum period.
"Okay!" Su Niannian replied with a smile.
Then Gu Nan drove Su Niannian and his mother home.
After the three left, Li Ergou sat on the edge of the bed, watching Song Zhaodi holding the child and comforting him.
Suddenly he laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Song Zhaodi was afraid that Li Ergou would disturb the child.
"I'm a dad!" Li Ergou said with a grin.
"Silly!" Song Zhaodi rolled her eyes at Li Ergou, but then laughed.
Yes, he became a father, and she became a mother herself.
By the time Su Niannian and Gu Nan returned, it was completely dark.
When Zhao Tian saw the three of them return, she quickly asked if they had eaten.
If you haven't eaten, you should hurry to the kitchen and make something.
"I've already eaten," Su Niannian said with a smile.
At this moment, Gu Ningning came out carrying Gu Zhendong's youngest son.
Su Niannian's two children were already walking by then.
The two stumbled out of the house.
Yangyang followed behind, worried that his two younger siblings might fall.
At this time, Su Niannian's baby was already one and a half years old.
"mother……"
"Hehe, Mom."
Su Niannian's heart melted when she saw the two children.
The two kids are getting better and better looking lately.
And they are talking more and more.
I don't know if it's because I gave birth to her, but the filter is a bit heavy.
Su Niannian always felt that the two children were particularly bright and intelligent.
Su Niannian squatted on the ground, surrounded by the two children.
"hug!"
"I want a hug too!"
The two children began to speak.
Su Niannian reached out and picked up both children at the same time.
Honestly, it wasn't light, but luckily Su Niannian was quite strong.
He picked up the children, one in each arm.
"Mom, you can just hold me... no need to hold me, little brother!" Gu Yining said.
Even at an age when he could barely speak properly, he already knew how to care for his elderly mother.
Su Niannian smiled and said, "What about the little brother? It's so pitiful if he doesn't get to be held!"
"Mmm!" said the younger brother, Gu Yiqing, indicating that he also wanted a hug from his mother.
As a result, Gu Yining glanced at Gu Yiqing.
Gu Yiqing immediately fell silent and put her fingers in her mouth.
"Actually... I don't need to be hugged, I'm fine without being hugged..." Gu Yiqing began, speaking haltingly.
"Haha, those two are so interesting every day," Gu's mother said with a laugh when she heard the commotion outside.
“Indeed. Both children are very smart,” Zhao Tian replied.
Su Niannian couldn't help but smile when she saw Gu Yiqing's pitiful appearance.
The bloodline suppression between siblings really does exist.
"Yining, you can't keep bullying your younger brother. You two are the people your mother loves the most."
"You keep bullying your younger brother. What if he becomes autistic in the future?" Su Niannian said seriously, but her voice was gentle.
Gu Yining thought about what her mother had said, and then slowly asked.
What is autism?
"Autism means not being close to people, not liking to talk, and not liking to interact with people," Su Niannian explained patiently.
“Oh… then my little brother doesn’t know how!” Gu Yining thought for a moment and replied seriously.
My dog brother, although he sometimes seems aloof and doesn't like to talk, most of the time he's just a chatterbox.
Even Gu Yining thought he talked too much.
Su Niannian was amused by Gu Yining's serious expression.
Gu Nan's face turned cold. Damn it, my wife says those two little rascals are the people she loves most.
Then what am I?
No, I have to send these two kids to their parents' room tonight!
Gu Nan was making plans in his mind.
That night, despite the two little ones clamoring to sleep with their mother, Gu Nan still put them in their parents' room.
