Chapter 288: This is already preferential treatment

Gu Mu was obviously relieved, it wasn't easy, she didn't cry today.

... She didn't think her granddaughter was spoiled and loved to cry. It was normal for a milk baby that big to want her mom before and after sleeping.

As a grandma, she only felt heartache for her granddaughter, wondering if her eyes were uncomfortable, and hoping she wouldn't cry her voice hoarse...

"Does Seeing Yaobao want to pee?" Gu Chan asked softly.

"Want!" The little girl answered crisply.

Gu Chan took her niece to the latrine.

The two went to the backyard, waiting for Bang Bang and the others to return.

Qian Bao looked for his sister first.

"Where is sister?" He looked at Gu Mu, his bright black eyes full of doubt.

"Your aunt took her to the latrine!" Gu Mu saw that the little grandson was covered in sweat, and found a towel to wipe Qian Bao.

This towel was Qian Bao's. Lin Zhao was particular, and the washbasins and towels of the several cubs at home were separated.

Although Gu Mu didn't understand and felt it was wasteful, she followed whatever her daughter-in-law said.

Qian Bao nodded his small head.

"Your mom sent a telegram." Gu Mu said to him.

The serious little milk dumpling's eyes lit up.

"Mom?" His tone rose, and his mood was higher than usual.

"Shh!" Gu Mu quickly glanced at the latrine direction. Ah Chan and Seeing Yaobao hadn't returned yet, so she relaxed. She pressed her index finger against her lips and shushed.

"Lower your voice, if your sister hears, she'll howl again."

Qian Bao covered his mouth with his small hand, blinked his beautiful eyes, his long eyelashes fluttering, and his soft, cute voice wasn't very clear.

"Don't say, don't tell sister."

Gu Mu saw that the little grandson was so smart, hugged him, and called him her heart and meat. "Oh, my little obedient grandson."

Hearing this clamped voice, Bang Bang and the others felt their cheeks sour.

Tie Dan laughed. "Grandma, is your throat uncomfortable?"

"What?" Gu Mu didn't understand what he meant.

Tie Dan felt danger and closed his mouth.

Nothing, didn't dare to have anything.

"Grandma, telegram." Qian Bao asked his grandma for the telegram.

Gu Mu gave it to him without a word. "Here, be careful, don't break it..."

One character costs several cents.

"Mm." Qian Bao promised obediently, opened the telegram paper slowly, and read it with serious brows and eyes.

Watching the little guy's serious appearance, Gu Mu couldn't help but laugh. "Can you understand, looking so seriously..."

Where did Qian Bao nod, his tender finger like a bamboo shoot pointed to the second character and said: "Arrived!"

Gu Mu's eyes widened, her tone rose. "You recognize it?"

Her obedient grandson is only a few years old, and he already recognizes characters!

Qian Bao was startled by his grandma's loud voice, but soon returned to calm, and said seriously: "Mom taught, Little Uncle taught."

Gu Qingzhou was stunned when he heard this. He was afraid Qian Bao and Seeing Yaobao would cry, so he told them stories. Seeing Qian Bao was interested in reading, he taught him to recognize characters with a playful attitude, but didn't expect him to remember them?!

He was very surprised and a bit excited.

He took out the notebook for teaching characters and tested Qian Bao.

"Qian Bao, what character is this?"

Qian Bao looked. "Sky."

"What about this one?"

"Hand."

"What about this one?"

"Head."

As Gu Qingzhou's fingers slid, without him asking more, Qian Bao read out the characters he pointed to.

"!!!"

He came back to his senses from the stupor, held his little nephew's face and rubbed it. "Qian Bao, you are really a good seedling for reading!"

Qian Bao curved his eyes and said in a milky voice: "Study hard, take the university entrance exam, earn money, buy meat for the family."

Gu Mu's heart melted, hugged her grandson. "Oh, our Qian Bao is really filial."

Gu Qingzhou said: "Mom, do Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law know Qian Bao recognizes characters fast?"

"... Should know." Gu Mu guessed. "Your Third Sister-in-law is careful, and she is the one tutoring the four cubs, how could she not know."

Just didn't say it.

Not strange either.

Qian Bao is only this big, showing intelligence too early is not a good thing.

Gu Qingzhou understood. "Then let's not talk about it outside."

"Can't talk about it." Gu Mu also knew that their family lived well, and many people were watching, so it's not a good thing to stand out again.

Still Third Sister-in-law is smart, look, she doesn't reveal anything at all.

"Qian Bao, be low-key outside, know?" Gu Qingzhou rubbed his little nephew's head.

Qian Bao looked up, revealing a puzzled look.

"You are still young, it's not good to show your intelligence too early, Little Uncle means... don't show that you recognize characters outside for now, wait until you are a year or two older."

The short little boy nodded his small head. "Know, Mom said."

This is Lin Zhao's own son, and also the smartest son. How good is his memory, how fast he recognizes characters, how could Lin Zhao not know?

She reminded Qian Bao long ago.

"Third Sister-in-law really knows." Gu Qingzhou looked at his mother and smiled.

Gu Chan took Seeing Yaobao to the front yard, and as soon as she arrived, she heard this, and asked curiously: "What are you talking about?"

The Gu family had been tossed by Seeing Yaobao for the past few days, how dare they mention her mom in front of her, and gave Gu Chan a look not to mention it.

"I'm going to make milk powder for Seeing Yaobao!" Gu Mu found an excuse and walked toward the kitchen.

Gu Qingzhou took Qian Bao into the room. "Your clothes are wet, Little Uncle will change your clothes."

The uncle and nephew entered the room.

Seeing Yaobao looked left and right, pouting her cheeks.

Gu Chan couldn't stop laughing.

Her niece is really cute.

If it weren't for work, she would want to bring Seeing Yaobao herself, but it's a pity... work tied her up.

Gu Chenghuai took his wife and children to board the car to the city.

Also together were Jingmo, Guangbai, and Mao Dan. Meng Jiusi also came. He originally didn't want to come, fearing his sister and brother-in-law couldn't bring the children, so he followed.

They were sitting in the car purchasing materials for the military region, sitting in the open carriage, very free, and also very messy.

The wind blew through the hair of several people, opening their hands, there was a feeling of flying.

"Ah!!" Gu Hangbao shouted excitedly, his mouth filled with wind.

Gu Chenghuai pressed his shoulder. "Sit properly, if you cough, I will definitely let your little uncle prescribe the bitterest medicine for you!"

Gu Hangbao's expression was resentful. "Bad Dad."

The man didn't care, and put a hat on his head.

Xiang Yubao looked at the vastness in the distance, his eyes shining. "The sky here looks so low!"

Mao Dan nodded, shouting loudly: "I thought so too when I first came, I got used to it after watching it!"

Jingmo was also used to it, and said to Xiang Yubao: "The hometown is also good, I like everywhere."

Liking it here is because Dad has a job, no need to work hard in the fields anymore, liking the hometown is because... there are people he likes in the hometown.

Xiang Yubao hummed. "Me too."

The wind of the wilderness blew to every corner, the sky was blue and the water was clear, the grass and trees were lush, occasionally one could see running small animals, everything was so returning to the basics.

It's easy for people's hearts to become broad here.

If the road were flatter, it would be better.

Lin Zhao was shaken until her face turned pale.

"Nothing wrong?" Gu Chenghuai didn't know where he took out a green-skinned orange, peeled it in a few swipes, and stuffed a piece into her mouth.

"Holding it in your mouth should be a little better."

Lin Zhao bit it open, so sour she almost lost her expression management.

"So sour."

Never eaten such a sour one in this life!

"Sour is useful." Gu Chenghuai hugged her shoulder.

"... Are these people driving so fiercely?" Lin Zhao was shaken until her butt left the stool, helplessly said.

Meng Jiusi's expression was complex. "This is already good!"

He guessed his brother-in-law had told the driver in advance to drive slower, otherwise the few children would also be vomiting.

Lin Zhao: "..."

This is already preferential treatment?

"Bear with it again." Meng Jiusi shrugged.

No way, it's not that no one complained, but the people driving didn't listen at all, they felt driving fast saved fuel, they were reducing the burden for the country.

Lin Zhao closed her eyes.

Suffering.

Gu Chenghuai touched his wife's hair and said softly: "Or, this car doesn't have many people, and it's not tossing people, if you are not used to it, next time let's take a car."

Lin Zhao opened her eyes to look at him, chewed the sour orange, swallowed it into her stomach, and said: "It's alright, the car is too stuffy, and the smell is not good, not as good as this."

Shaken is shaken, at least it's ventilated.

"Can you still sit when you come back?"

Gu Chenghuai shook his head and said: "Can sit, but it's very cold at night, sitting in this is not good, better take a car."

Fearing Lin Zhao wouldn't be happy, he added: "We'll go early then, and occupy a few good seats."

"Alright." Lin Zhao agreed.

Xiang Yubao patted his chest. "I'll help Mom occupy, I'm best at occupying seats."

"Then I'll trouble my eldest son." Lin Zhao's eyes were smiling.

Xiang Yubao laughed very happily.

Gu Hangbao struggled for a while, and reluctantly said: "Then I'll occupy for Dad."

Gu Chenghuai: "... Thank you."

So reluctant, better not occupy it at all.

Gu Hangbao's expression was serious, dissatisfied: "Dad, your attitude is not correct!"

Gu Chenghuai glared at him, asked back: "How am I not correct?"

Gu Hangbao choked.

He didn't know how to say it, but he just felt his dad was perfunctory to him.

Humph.

Lin Zhao smiled and closed her eyes to rest.

Seeing her close her eyes, the twins didn't speak again.

The wind blew, the sun was big, it should have been very dry and hot, but because of the wind, it seemed very suitable for traveling.

Shaking for more than half an hour, the car finally stopped.

Gu Chenghuai helped Lin Zhao stand up.

"Legs are numb." Lin Zhao's expression was unbearable.

"Don't move first, I'll press it for you." Gu Chenghuai let his wife hold the railing, half-squatted, and gently pressed Lin Zhao's legs.

"Lightly, numb!" Lin Zhao frowned.

"Bear with it." Gu Chenghuai slowly increased the force, this is also no way, the numbness has to pass.

After a while, Lin Zhao recovered, she stamped her feet. "I'm fine."

Gu Chenghuai's brows relaxed.

Just about to get up, a short leg stretched over, Gu Hangbao blinked his eyes. "Dad, my legs are numb too."

Gu Chenghuai looked at him expressionlessly.

Seeing this, Gu Hangbao silently retracted his leg. "... Seems not numb again, hehe."

"..." You say he is sensible, he is indeed sensible, you say his face is thick, this face is indeed thick.

Doesn't know how to be embarrassed at all.

Meng Jiusi was afraid his nephew would be slapped, scooped him up and got off the car.

Gu Hangbao screamed, saw his little uncle's handsome face at close range, and said softly: "Thank you, Little Uncle."

Meng Jiusi's eyes were smiling. "Don't provoke your dad, if he wants to discipline you, I can't stop him."

"It's okay, my mom can stop him." Gu Hangbao was monkey-smart. "With my mom around, my dad won't beat me."

At most a stern face.

Dad only slaps him when Mom is not around.

Meng Jiusi scraped Gu Hangbao's nose. "You are really clever."

Gu Hangbao giggled. "I follow my mom!"

Meng Jiusi didn't agree with this.

His sister wasn't this annoying, in terms of courting death, Gu Hangbao must be like his dad.

Meng Jiusi helped Mao Dan and the other children off the car.

Thanked the driver who brought them to the city, three adults, five children walked toward the department store.

Lin Zhao saw the large store with three floors, her eyes surprised. "Such a big store?!"

This should be Director Jiang's goal.

Their supply and marketing cooperative, if expanded once more, would become like this.

Just right, go in and learn some experience.

She smoothed her braids and walked into the department store with light steps.

Four children followed closely behind.

Gu Hangbao supported his face. "It's so big here, so many things."

Lin Zhao said: "In a year or a half, the place where I work will also become this big."

Gu Hangbao gave face and said wow. "Amazing."

Lin Zhao pressed the tuft of hair on his head, took out money from her bag, actually gave one yuan to each, and said generously: "Give you one yuan each, big shopping today, spend as you like, as long as it's within the budget unit, buy whatever you want."

Gu Hangbao's eyes turned into the shape of money, took the small money, and distributed it to his little friends one by one.

"Hold it well."

He laughed like a little cat that stole a fish. "I want to use this money to buy gifts for Qian Bao and Seeing Yaobao."

Xiang Yubao added: "And Li Bao and the others."

Gu Hangbao said reasonably: "Must prioritize younger brother and sister first, they were left in the hometown, how miserable, I guess Seeing Yaobao must be crying, Qian Bao... Qian Bao won't be happy either, I want to find the best gift for them."

Xiang Yubao struggled, saying: "Then you buy gifts for younger brother and sister, I'll pick gifts for Li Bao and Grandpa and Grandma."

Gu Hangbao had no opinion. "Alright."

Hearing this, Lin Zhao was full of smiles from the corners of her eyes to her brows.

"I will prepare the gifts to bring, you use the money in your hands to prioritize yourselves, buy what you like."

Gu Hangbao's eyes were bright. "Can I?"

He is also a child, and has things he wants.

"Yes." Lin Zhao said with full patience.

"Good." Gu Hangbao cheered, hugged his mom and twisted his body.

Lin Zhao patted his head. "Stop acting spoiled, hurry to the counter and see what's the difference between here and our supply and marketing cooperative."

Gu Hangbao let go of her, and he and Xiang Yubao ran toward the counter.

The few children were dressed well, looked good, their cheeks were fleshy, and they were generous and not shy, looking like children of worker families at a glance.

The salesperson noticed Lin Zhao and Gu Chenghuai, didn't dare to look down on the few children, and the service attitude was quite good, patiently asking what they wanted.

Bai Bai pointed to the malt sugar in front of the counter. "Want this."

He looked left and right, counted the heads silently, compared a five, and said softly: "Five pieces, thank you."

Not as tall as the counter, and still knows how to say thank you.

Such a pleasing child, no adult had the heart to give him a cold face.

"Want five pieces of this sugar, Auntie will cut it for you." The salesperson said with a smile.

The voice was clamped, but the volume wasn't small, attracting several people to look over.

"Doctor Meng?"

Several interns from the military region hospital rarely had a holiday, didn't expect to meet Doctor Meng, and walked over to greet him.

Li Can was also among them.

She brightened slightly, a smile playing on her lips, "Dr. Meng, how do you have the time to come out?"

This girl's voice was clear, and her tone carried obvious joy.

Lin Zhao saw at a glance that this female comrade had a good impression of her Little Brother.

She didn't make a sound, gave the children a look, signaling them not to speak for now, especially the talkative Gu Hangbao, pretending to look at the things on the counter, but actually all her attention was there. ===== CHAPTER 289 =====
