Chapter 388: How Old-fashioned!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Ah, little Lele, what’s that on the corner of your mouth? It looks like you’ve been poisoned,” Gong Xin intercepted little Su Le midway, cradling the little child in her arms and wiping away the purple stain on her lips.

Gong Xin had always felt a special bond with Su Le. Whenever she saw her, she wanted to hold her close. Of course, the main reason was that Gu Zi had made her so adorable. Who could resist a sweet, soft little bundle of joy?

“What’s this?” Mrs. Chen’s eyes lit up as she looked at the little girl in her daughter’s arms. She seemed familiar. She had seen Gu Zi carrying her before. After stapart, the child seemed to have becfairer, plumper, and more lively. She hadn’t expected Gu Zi to be so good at raising children.

It was strange, she remembered that Gu Zi didn’t like children before. It seemed that people do change and grow!

“Mother, isn’t she adorable? This is Lele, Gu Zi’s daughter,” Gong Xin handed Su Le to Mrs. Chen, whose face broke into a doting smile. At her age, she had long wanted to hold her grandchildren.

However, Gong Zhan’s tumultuous marriage had left her waiting. Even after he finally got married, there were complications. She didn’t know when she would be able to hold her grandchild.

As for Gong Xin, she had little hope. Gong Xin had always been a tomboy, carefree and casual. When asked to go on arranged dates, she reacted as if it were a matter of life and death. There were no signs of any ambiguous male companions around her. It was tough!

“Lethold you, little Lele. Here’s sred envelope money from grandma,” Mrs. Chen said, pulling out five hundred yuan from her purse and stuffing it into Su Let s little hand.

Su Le was a little money-lover. She clutched the money tightly and refused to let go. Then she turned and ran towards Gu Zi, as if she were absconding with the loot, amusing both Gong Xin and Mrs. Chen.

For a moment, Mrs. Chen and Gong Xin seemed a little dazed. What were they doing at the hospital again? Ah, never mind, the child was too adorable. They wanted to take her home!

Mrs. Chen felt a mix of emotions. These three children, none of whom were Gu Zi’s biological offspring, were all raised so well by her. Besides Su Le, the two older boys had also changed a lot. They looked energetic and their faces were rosy.

Although they were still thin, it was clear that they were starting to gain weight. This was the look of happiness.

Especially the older boy, Mrs. Chen could tell. His gaze was distant and cold, but it was different when he looked at Gu Zi, his stepmother.

If she could treat other people’s children as her own, how bad could Gu Zi be?

She shouldn’t have believed those rumors back then. But it was too late for regrets now. She could only watch as a good woman becsomeone else’s daughter-in-law. The concept of social status had truly ruined things. How old-fashioned!

Mrs. Chen and Gong Xin played with Lele for a while before returning the child to Gu Zi. They exchanged a few words, advising her to rest well and to forgive Gong Zhan for his foolish actions this time.

Afterward, Su Shen entered, intending to take his wife and child away. Mrs. Chen spoke with him briefly, expressing her apologies once again.

Previously, Mrs. Chen hadn’t paid much attention to Gu Zits rural husband. It was only now that she took a good look at him. Judging by his appearance and demeanor, it was hard to believe that he was merely a pig farm owner.

Mrs. Chen had heard that he had also served as a soldier. Indeed, there was a unique masculinity and toughness about him that was characteristic of successful men, a quality that could only be honed on the battlefield. Even the best upbringing couldn’t instill this, and it was a quality that even her own son lacked.

Yet, Mrs. Chen saw it in him. Moreover, he was not inferior to any of the decorated veterans she had met. This man was not as simple as he appeared. Mrs. Chen then gave each of the two boys a red envelope containing five hundred yuan, insisting that Su Shen and Gu Zi accept it.

Su Shen didn’t care about the money. He just didn’t want his wife to have too many ties with the Gong family, so he left the decision to Gu Zi.

Gu Zi wasn’t one to refuse money. Moreover, she understood Mrs. Chen’s character. She just wanted to resolve the issue at hand, unlike the Gu family who gave money in exchange for greater benefits. If she refused, it would seem as if Gu Zi lacked vision. Without any hesitation, she let the children accept the money and left the hospital with Su Shen and the children.

After they left, Gong Xin laughed and said, “What do you think, mom? Isn’t Gu Zi naturally born with a wealthy fate? Even if she didn’t marry into our Gong family, she could still strike gold in the village..”
