A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her

Mrs. Xu? She remembered that Luo Ning's cousin's husband seemed to be called Xu Jianguo.

That's right.

When Xu Jianguo pursued cousin Luo Ning, it was so passionate.

She also often recited love poems to her cousin Luo Ning downstairs of the Zhong family's building.

Even if the mountains have no edges, the rivers have dried up, the winter thunders roar, and the summer snows, and the heaven and earth merge, I will never break off my relationship with you.

What does it mean to hold your hand and grow old with you?

Why not leave the green mountains?

Zhong Luoning was a gentle and shy girl, so she couldn't stand such an attack and was soon pursued by Xu Jianguo. That guy was good at lying and speaking eloquently, and he even coaxed several elders of the Zhong family into believing him.

Later, the original body met the Xu couple at Zhong Luo Ning's wedding, and the memory was still fresh in her mind. Xu's mother even said in public that she would treat Sister Luo Ning as her own daughter.

God's fucking daughter.

When a wall falls, everyone pushes it. It seems that Sister Luo Ning is not having an easy time in the Xu family. She is the type of person who chooses to report good news but not bad news. Maybe she has suffered a lot of grievances in private.

It was obvious that Mrs. Xu was not a good person, with a sarcastic face.

I haven't contacted my cousin Zhong Luoning these days since I came back. Thanks to her for telling me about Lanting's news, I don't know how she is doing recently.

I was so busy recently that I forgot about this matter.

Gu Qinghuan happened to meet her mother-in-law today. After hearing her crazy words, she had a bad feeling in her heart, but it was not a good time to verify it immediately.

Let’s go tomorrow. I’ll go see my cousin tomorrow.

A few middle-aged women looked around, bought nothing, and wandered over to other counters.

Xu Jianguo's mother walked around here and there but didn't recognize Gu Qinghuan. It might be because Gu Qinghuan's temperament had changed so much and her aura was too strong, or it might be that she simply didn't remember such a small matter as her daughter-in-law's family.

The teller finally brought the two watches.

Seeing that Gu Qinghuan's eyes were fixed on the ladies who were leaving, she whispered, "Do you know them?"

Gu Qinghuan shook her head and denied: "I don't know him, I'm just curious."

The cashier was sure that she didn't know them, so he said with disdain: "They are regular customers of the Friendship Store, the kind of hypocritical people who only look but don't buy, and they often boss us around and ask us to show them our best products.

At the beginning, everyone was fooled and their mouths were watering, but people just wouldn’t buy. Later, everyone knew about them.

Tell me, what do people like them want?" The teller shook his head.

Gu Qinghuan understood it immediately. This was similar to the fake socialites and fake rich women in later generations. They obviously had no money to spend, but loved to go to luxury stores, clicking and trying on items, making the cashiers very annoyed, and in the end they didn't buy anything.

What they seek is a kind of pleasure that ordinary people cannot understand. They feel that they often go to high-end places, which makes them very prestigious and they can brag about it and show off.

In short, it is meaningless and embarrassing.

Gu Qinghuan smiled, inspected the goods, and left with Ming Ruxue and the two children.

The two children have been very well behaved today. When checking out, Gu Qinghuan even bought them two boxes of imported chocolates as a reward.

Imported chocolate is expensive, and Ming Ruxue can't spend money every time. She can actually afford it, but she can't buy it often. Not only does it require foreign exchange coupons, but eating too much of it is not good for the child.

Dabao had already learned numbers and had a preliminary sense of economics. When he was checking out, he was shocked to hear the cashier say that a box of chocolates cost three yuan.

There are only a few small pieces of chocolate in this box, but it costs three yuan. Three yuan can buy a lot of White Rabbit chocolates and several kilograms of fruit candies.

Aunt Ruxue usually buys several boxes for them. Isn’t that very expensive?

Dabao held Gu Qinghuan, his clear eyes full of resistance: "Mom, I don't want chocolate anymore."

Beibei didn't know why her brother didn't want such delicious chocolate, and pouted unhappily.

Gu Qinghuan understood that he might be feeling sorry for the money. He was such a sensible child. However, she didn't need them to be too sensible. After all, growing up would be so hard. They should just enjoy the fun of being a child when they were young.

"Why don't you want it anymore? Do you think it's too expensive?" Gu Qinghuan asked, bending down.

Dabao looked at her, then looked at Ming Ruxue, tugged at the buttons of his clothes, lowered his head and whispered, "Yeah."

He was worried that his mother would find him embarrassing.

But he really doesn't want it anymore, and it's hard for his parents to earn money to support them.

He had heard from his mother before that he had asked Aunt Xiaowei to do the cleaning for two small Western-style buildings, paying her four dollars.

He originally thought he had to pay a lot of money, but now that he knew that the chocolates he usually ate cost three yuan a box, he felt that he was being extravagant and wasteful.

Aunt Xiaowei had to clean two small Western-style buildings to earn enough money to buy a box of chocolates. Thinking of this, he couldn't bring himself to eat this thing called chocolate anymore.

Gu Qinghuan didn't say anything, but smiled and rubbed his little head: "Our Dabao has grown up and can save money for his mother.

Okay, Mom was going to give you and your sister a box of chocolates each as a reward, but since you don’t want them, then Mom will give you the money for the box of chocolates to use with it.

Whether you want to keep it or spend it, it's up to you, okay?"

Dabao didn't expect this to happen. He thought his mother would be unhappy, but he didn't expect her to actually give him the money to deal with. He was stunned for a moment.

Beibei was still young and had no concept of money. She could not resist the temptation of chocolate. Gu Qinghuan bought her a box of chocolates, and she held it happily in her hands.

Along the way, Dabao held the three dollars he had just earned tightly in his hand, planning to use it to do something more meaningful.

Beibei broke off a piece of chocolate and asked her brother while chewing it: "Brother, do you want to eat it? I'll give you a piece of mine."

Dabao shook his head. He had already taken the money and the chocolate was no longer tempting to him.

"Eat it, I have this." He raised his fist.

Beibei looked at him puzzledly, as if he were a fool: "Brother, you can't eat money, you are so stupid!"

"You're the stupid one!" Dabao snorted and turned away.

After a while, the two were back to normal.

Ming Ruxue looked at the two cute little ones in front of her, and looked at Gu Qinghuan with admiration: "Sister, you are so good at teaching children! You don't treat them perfunctorily, don't spoil their fun, treat them as equal individuals, and respect their own wishes. I dare not imagine how happy it will be to be your child!

You and my brother-in-law should have a baby as soon as possible!"

In the last sentence, Gu Qinghuan expressed that it was totally impossible. She and Xu Huaian were still roommates, so how could they have developed to the point of having a child?

In fact, she doesn't know how to teach children, and she doesn't dare to be a mother. She is always afraid that she is not doing well enough, ignoring the needs of her children, and frustrating their little hearts.

Raising these two children is just an effort to make up for what I lacked in my childhood, hoping that they will be happier and freer.

People say that raising a child is actually raising yourself again, and this is true.

There were many times when she could see the shadow of her own childhood in Dabao and Beibei, and she was afraid that they would encounter the same difficulties as she had and suffer mental frustration.

Some wounds cannot be seen, but they are there and may never heal.

If you are not cherished and pampered as a child, you will probably not cherish yourself when you grow up.

That's why she tries her best to be better and better to her two children, so that they will have enough confidence to deal with the ups and downs of life in the future.
