Chapter 346 Falling Asleep by the Scent of Osmanthus
Some images are etched in my mind.
Gu Nan stood outside the bathroom, his Adam's apple bobbing.
He thought that if his little girl hadn't gotten pregnant, he could have been doing *that* kind of thing.
pity……
But when the image of a baby flashed through his mind, Gu Nan felt a sense of happiness enveloping him.
A smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
At Gu Nan's age, there's absolutely no need for him to take a hot bath in this kind of weather.
They used a basin to draw water from the water tank in the yard.
I quickly took a quick shower outside the bathroom.
When Su Niannian finished washing up and came out, Gu Nan had also finished washing up.
"Next time, you should use warm water to wash," Su Niannian said to Gu Nan.
"It's alright. When I was in the army, I always took cold showers in the winter," Gu Nan said with a smile, then wrapped Su Niannian's head with a clean towel.
"Hurry inside, be careful not to catch a cold." Gu Nan told Su Niannian to cover herself with a towel, then picked her up by the waist.
"Mmm." Su Niannian felt a sense of happiness and warmth as she was held in Gu Nan's arms.
Looking at Su Niannian in his arms, her cheeks flushed, Gu Nan was truly captivated.
After returning to the room, Gu Nan placed Su Niannian on the bed and carefully dried her hair.
The movements were extremely gentle.
Su Niannian also enjoyed Gu Nan drying her hair, feeling very happy to see such a rough man so carefully and attentively drying her hair.
After drying their hair, the two of them turned off the lights.
Su Niannian nestled in Gu Nan's arms.
Gu Nan drifted off to sleep, inhaling the faint scent of osmanthus blossoms from Su Niannian's hair.
The next morning, when Su Niannian got up, Gu Nan was no longer in bed.
In the morning, Gu Nan originally wanted to help with the cooking, but because Zhao Tian was now there, Zhao Tian took over the task of cooking.
While there was still time, Gu Nan filled the water tank in the kitchen in the yard.
After all, fetching water is hard work.
When Su Niannian got up and came to the yard, breakfast was already prepared.
"Sister-in-law, thank you so much. I got up a little late this morning," Su Niannian said with a smile as she watched Zhao Tian's busy figure.
"What are you saying? You're pregnant now, that's the time when you should be resting more."
"Let's not beat around the bush, okay?" Zhao Tian said with a smile.
Then place the boiled eggs on the table.
Gu Ningning was also yawning as she sat down in a chair at the dining table.
A few strands of hair were still on her forehead, dripping water.
This looks like someone washed their face but didn't dry it properly.
"Niannian, come and wash your face." Gu Nan had already prepared hot water for Su Niannian and was calling her over.
Su Niannian smiled and agreed, then went to wash her face.
"Mom, why are there boiled eggs this morning?" Gu Ningning asked her mother.
After all, Gu Ningning thought that fried eggs tasted better than boiled eggs.
"So guess what? Is it some little dog's birthday?" Gu's mother's voice came from the kitchen.
Gu Ningning then remembered that today... it seemed...
It's my birthday.
Children of this age really enjoy celebrating their birthdays.
After all, most families weren't well-off, so it was a blessing for the children to be able to eat something nice on their birthdays.
Or you could just buy something you like, that would be great.
However, the Gu family never skimped on Gu Ningning's food, but even so, Gu Ningning was still very happy.
After Su Niannian finished washing up, she came over and heard that today was Ningning's birthday.
Thinking back to when they were in Kaoshan Village, he had promised Gu Ningning that if he came to Beijing, he would take her to a state-run department store and buy her ready-made clothes.
Today happens to be Gu Ningning's birthday, so let's go buy it today.
“I promised some elderly people yesterday that I would see them. I’ll go over there after I finish eating. When I get back, let’s go to the city center.”
After Su Niannian sat down, she said to Zhao Tian.
Zhao Tian nodded. If Su Niannian wanted to go to the city, she would definitely go with her.
After all, Su Niannian is pregnant now, and I can go with her to take care of her.
"Hmm? Second sister-in-law and eldest sister-in-law are going to the city. Will they bring me back some delicious food?" Gu Ningning asked, blinking at Su Niannian.
"No, I won't bring it," Su Niannian replied with a smile.
Gu Ningning knew that Su Niannian was teasing her, and she wasn't upset. She just hugged Su Niannian's arm and shook it.
"Good sister-in-law, it's Ningning's birthday today, so please buy Ningning some delicious food!" Gu Ningning said coquettishly.
Su Niannian gently stroked Gu Ningning's nose with her index finger.
"It's because it's Ningning's birthday today, so Ningning is coming with us," Su Niannian said with a smile.
Gu Ningning was so happy to hear that she was going to be taken to the city that she felt like she could fly.
Over there, Gu's mother had already peeled several eggs and given one to each person.
Yangyang held an egg in his hand, took a bite, and thought it was delicious.
After breakfast, Gu Nan told Su Niannian that she needed to be extra careful now that she was pregnant.
Don't join in just because something is interesting.
Su Niannian complained that Gu Nan was nagging, but she still enjoyed the fact that Gu Nan cared about her so much.
After Gu Nan left, although it was still early, Su Niannian had already slung her bag over her shoulder. The bag contained acupuncture needles, paper, and pen. She said goodbye to Gu's mother and the others and was about to leave.
"Is it in the family compound? Otherwise, I'll go with you?" Gu's mother was a little worried about Su Niannian.
"No need, Mom. It's just inside the family compound. I'll be right back."
"When I get back, I'm going to go shopping in the city with my sister-in-law Ningning," Su Niannian replied with a smile.
Thinking that since it was just in the family compound, there was no need to worry too much. Gu's mother filled a pot with warm water for Su Niannian and let her go.
Su Niannian took the water bottle with a smile and set off.
When Su Niannian arrived at the family compound, the place where Chief Miao had his accident yesterday, there were already some elderly men and women waiting there.
Seeing that Su Niannian had arrived as promised, the elderly men and women smiled happily.
"Young lady, you're up so early. I thought young people liked to sleep in," an older woman said with a grin.
Su Niannian smiled and responded.
"Come quickly, I need to go to the city center after I've shown you all this," Su Niannian said with a smile.
"Oh! There are buses going to the city center from this residential compound every day, twice a day."
"You can take a bus there. There's one at 7 a.m. and another at 9 a.m.
"They come back twice a day, once at 2 PM and once at 4 PM. It's quite convenient," the old lady enthusiastically explained to Su Niannian.
Then he pointed to the outside of the courtyard gate.
"Look, it's over there where you get on and off the bus," the old woman said, pointing to the area.
