Ignoring the woman, Chen Lishu took out a big coupon from her pocket and handed it to the three children and said, "If it's broken, we'll buy more. You three can buy more together."
The Wang brothers' eyes suddenly lit up when they heard her words: "Aunt Gu, how many bottles should you buy?"
"Buy as many bottles as you can."
The three children were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.
One bottle costs one dollar, but ten dollars means ten bottles!
When the woman saw Chen Lishu's behavior, her face suddenly became very ugly, and Liu Dafu wanted to find a crack to get in.
The three children quickly went to the service shop. Canned goods were originally a luxury product, and they could not sell a few bottles in a month. There were only five bottles left in the store, all of which were covered by the three children.
"Rui Rui can't eat that much, so you two brothers should share two bottles each."
When they heard that they could get two cans at once, the brothers immediately cheered: "Oh, great, Aunt Gu, you are so kind."
"Aunt Gu, I wish you were my mother." Wang Yanhui got carried away for a moment and said what was in his heart right in front of his mother. Zhao Guiying immediately repaired him.
"I see you don't look good. Are you sick?" As soon as he entered the house, Gu Xingdong raised his hand to cover Chen Lishu's forehead. He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was no fever.
"Mom said she was tired when she was riding in the car," Ruirui said.
Seeing Chen Lishu going to the kitchen, she was stopped by Gu Xingdong: "Since you are tired, go back to the house and rest. I will make dinner."
"Okay, I'll go back and lie down for a while." She happened to have little strength and didn't really want to move, so she didn't object and went straight back to the bedroom.
"Dad, did I make my mother unhappy because of my fight today?" Ruirui said very remorsefully when she saw Chen Lishu closing the door.
"No, your mother knows that you are a good boy and won't fight randomly, otherwise she can buy you canned food? You may be really tired. You go back to the house and play while dad goes to cook." Gu Xingdong rolled up his sleeves and went in.
The kitchen.
His cooking skills are definitely not comparable to Chen Lishu's, and since he doesn't do it often, he can barely cook anything.
While cooking, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. Gu Xingdong quickly put down the spatula in his hand and went to open the door.
Zhao Guiying saw that he was wearing an apron and knew that he was cooking. He glanced inside unconsciously, but did not see Chen Lishu, so she gave him the plate in her hand: "I will bring you the fried radish balls for you to try."
Gu Xingdong took it and said, "Thank you."
Because there were still vegetables cooking on the pot, Gu Xingdong didn't say much to her and hurriedly turned over the vegetables after closing the door.
When Zhao Guiying returned home and looked at Wang Jianshe, who was sitting on a stool with his legs crossed, waiting to eat, he suddenly felt dazzled.
"Look at Deputy Commander Gu. His official position is higher than yours, and his arrogance is incomparable to yours. When he comes home, he is either doing laundry or cooking. I have seen him several times. Look at you again. Your children can't help you.
, I can’t help with the cooking, I’m the only one in this family, right?”
Wang Jianshe immediately sat up straight: "Looking at what you said, let me take care of the child."
When he said this, Zhao Guiying became even more angry: "The child is playing there happily now, so what are you looking at?"
Wang Jianshe felt a little aggrieved: "But I don't know how to cook either."
"Then learn and do it now."
…
Gu Xingdong finished cooking and went into the house to call Chen Lishu.
"Xingdong." Chen Lishu called in a low voice.
Gu Xingdong sat down by the bed: "Is there something wrong?"
Chen Lishu nodded and told him what happened in the past few days.
"If it is confirmed that Ruirui is the child they lost, they will definitely take Ruirui away. I can't bear to..." Chen Lishu's voice was trembling.
Gu Xingdong was startled when he suddenly learned the news.
After all, Gu Xingdong also has feelings for Rui Rui after being raised for such a long time. What's more, Chen Lishu has always been with Rui Rui and has hardly been separated in the past two years. It must be even more sad.
Gu Xingdong thought for a moment and grabbed her hand on his chest, rubbed it twice, and said, "You should be happy for the child. After all, it would be a good thing for Ruirui if he could find his biological parents."
"But I can't bear it."
"Children will always leave their parents when they grow up. It's just a matter of sooner or later."
Chen Lishu sat upright in a hurry: "But, it's too early."
"Then if he leaves, he is no longer our son?"
Chen Lishu stopped talking. No matter when the time comes, she will definitely treat Ruirui as her biological son.
"According to what you said, the two families are not far apart. We can visit him often. Ruirui is a sensible and good child. A child like you will definitely not feel at ease even if he leaves."
Chen Lishu was angry: "I can't be happy."
Gu Xingdong smiled and pinched her cheek: "Who didn't force you? Otherwise, I would lend you my shoulder and allow you to cry in my arms. After crying, we will talk to the child."
"Gu Xingdong!" Chen Lishu said deliberately with tears in her eyes: "You pinched me."
Gu Xingdong's eyes darkened for a moment, and he quickly said nonchalantly: "What should we do, or will you come back to vent your anger?"
"You are thick-skinned and thick-skinned. I am too lazy to pay attention to you. You have to eat. Let's go. The food will be cold soon."
Chen Lishu said as she got out of bed and walked towards the door.
Looking at her back, Gu Xingdong sighed secretly. He felt bad about Ruirui, but it was enough that one of the couple was sad.
Originally, the couple had never deliberately concealed the adoption of Ruirui, so after dinner, when Chen Lishu told Ruirui that his biological parents would come over, the child just froze for a while and did not show too strong emotions.
Ruirui lowered his head, picking at the hem of his clothes with his fingers. After a while, he raised his head and asked cautiously: "Mom, can I not leave? I promise not to fight again. Don't let me go."
He didn't even know what his biological parents looked like. He only knew that the two people in front of him were his parents.
In his mind, Chen Lishu suddenly mentioned that she wanted to send him away because he had done something wrong in the fight today.
Seeing his eyes full of prayers, Chen Lishu couldn't help it any longer, covered her mouth and turned her head to cry silently.
Gu Xingdong waved to him, asked him to come closer, touched his little head, and said softly: "Mom and dad will always be your parents. They can't abandon you. Your biological parents will definitely love you as much as we do."
"Think about it, you have an extra father and mother than other children. If you miss us, we will visit you, or we can come and stay for a while during the winter and summer vacations. Everything will be the same as now.
the difference."
Ruirui nodded in understanding, but still seemed depressed because of the separation, and even hid in the quilt and cried for a long time.
As soon as the day of the scheduled meeting arrived, Chen Lishu asked for leave from school in advance, and Gu Xingdong drove over from the army early in the morning.
