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

She sensed something unusual in his solemn expression, so she thought about preparing something for him.

I put some medicines for him in a waterproof sealed bag, including the medicines he usually took, some anti-inflammatory drugs, medicines to help wound recovery, antipyretics, etc.

Another thing to do is to give him a small bottle of spiritual spring water in case of emergency.

Xu Huaian tightly grasped the thing in his hand and said in a hoarse voice: "Okay!"

After the two said goodbye, Gu Qinghuan couldn't sleep, so he got himself ready and secretly made millet porridge in the villa.

Then I plan to go home and see the children.

Xu Huaian gathered with the team and started his journey.

-

Zhong Luoning recovered well and was allowed to go home to recuperate the next day.

Xiao Zhuo also helped drive her back to the small villa.

Xiao Zhuo's mother, Ms. Xiao Fengying, felt quite regretful since she learned that Gu Qinghuan was married.

Lanting School is on winter vacation.

He and Ming Ruxue were both drafted by Gu Qinghuan to help take care of the child.

It has been a few days since they moved into the small western-style building, and Gu Qinghuan has been busy all the time, so she hasn't had time to treat everyone to a meal.

She specially arranged a weekend and invited Xiao Zhuo, Xu Lei, He Qiang, Wang Xiaowei and others to come over for a warm pot meal.

I originally wanted to invite Grandma Gu to come over for a gathering, but when I got there, the house was empty. The neighbors said she had gone up the mountain to serve the Buddha.

Gu Qinghuan no longer insisted.

The splint on He Qiang's hand has not been removed yet, but he looks in good spirits. He also brought mung bean cakes made by his younger brother and sister, as well as homemade sauerkraut.

It’s no wonder that the pickled cabbage his family made was of moderate saltiness and a refreshing sour taste, quite delicious. It was perfect for making pickled fish, and Gu Qinghuan used it that night.

Inviting Wang Xiaowei was a surprise.

She was so busy every day that she almost forgot about this person. It was only when she suddenly came to return something these two days that she knew about her recent situation.

After the lease of her previous tube-shaped building expired, Wang Xiaowei finally found a job.

It’s a bit embarrassing to say that she is now helping rich families breastfeed their babies.

I found this job by accident.

When she was looking for a job before, an aunt saw her holding a baby and asked her how old the baby was and whether the milk was good.

She said the baby is more than three months old and her milk supply is still good.

Then the aunt said, "Girl, to tell you the truth, it is very difficult for you to find a job with a baby in your situation.

But I have something that's perfect for you.

A rich family just gave birth to a baby, and the mother had no milk to feed the baby, so she was looking for a wet nurse all over the world. Her requirements were quite high: she didn't want an old one, and she didn't want one whose child was already grown.

I am telling you that it is up to you to go or not because you have a young child and you are young and clean.

I heard the salary is quite high.”

The aunt's words touched Wang Xiaowei's heart. She had been looking for a job for so long and had already become discouraged. She had planned to take her children back to her hometown if she couldn't find a job again, but now her situation had taken a turn for the better.

She took her child to the interview.

The interview location was actually near the small western-style building where I had previously helped Gu Qinghuan clean.

The family looked her up and down, asked her a lot of details and her specific situation, and finally agreed to let her breastfeed the baby once.

Maybe the child was really hungry, so she ate very happily and fell asleep after eating. The child's grandparents were very satisfied, so they waved their hands and agreed to let the mother and daughter stay and live in the servants' room on the first floor.

This requires her to take a bath every day, maintain hygiene, and feed the host family's child first before feeding the child.

She felt that this was acceptable, after all, the child was still young and couldn't eat much.

For her, this was a perfect job as she could make money, live in such a nice house, and take care of her children, so she stayed.

She eats with her master's family every day. Because she has good nutrition and plenty of milk, it is more than enough to feed two children, and the master family is very satisfied.

Moreover, when she has free time, she does not slack off and takes the initiative to help with cleaning and cooking, which makes the host family very satisfied.

After settling down in this family, she specially sent over the things she had borrowed from Lanting and expressed her gratitude at the same time.

I also bought some fruits for them. It happened that Gu Qinghuan was having a party, so I invited her along as well.

Wang Xiaowei came here after feeding the child of the host family over there.

Xiao Zhuo had originally planned to come alone, but Xiao Fengying heard that the girl from the hospital was treating them, so she insisted on coming to join in the fun and even prepared gifts on her own initiative.

He had no choice but to agree to come with his mother.

As soon as the mother and son went out, they met Qu Hanwen who came to see them. It was the weekend when Qu Hanwen had some free time, so he came to see them to keep in touch.

Qu Hanwen has not looked for another woman since his divorce from Xiao Fengying. He has devoted himself to his career and has been quite successful in recent years. The only thing he lacks is a wife, children and a warm home.

His parents have passed away, and he is now alone. Sometimes when he sees other happy families, he can't help but feel sad.

See, ever since the Xiao family moved back, he has been coming over under the pretext of looking after his son. He shamelessly comes over to eat and drink for free, but his ulterior motive is not to drink.

After so many years, Xiao Fengying has actually forgiven him for the most part. After all, they are both almost fifty years old, so there is nothing for her to be upset about.

But he was still harsh in his words.

Xiao Fengying turned her head away and ignored Qu Hanwen, so Xiao Zhuo could only act as a peacemaker.

When Qu Hanwen heard that it was Zhong Weiqian's granddaughter who was treating them, he quickly said that he wanted to join them.

So the people who came to eat became a family of three, and they prepared a lot of gifts.

Gu Qinghuan was shocked. She didn't know the relationship between Qu Hanwen and Xiao Zhuo, and thought they just happened to meet. It was not until later that she figured out the relationship between the three from some minor details.

Fortunately, she prepared a lot of dishes, so she wasn't afraid of having more people.

Xu Lei was the last to arrive, and he was very busy as it was almost the end of the year.

The furniture that Gu Qinghuan had ordered earlier had already been delivered.

Everyone gathered around the big round table and drank together.

Although the identities and status of the people at the table varied greatly, they were all well-educated people and they enjoyed the meal very much.

Zhong Luo Ning sat at a separate table with her children. She couldn't eat anything at the moment, so she just got up to join in the fun and help Wang Xiaowei hold the children and coax them.

Children are truly the purest angels in the world. Their smile can make people forget all their worries.

After eating the dishes made by Gu Qinghuan, Xiao Fengying exclaimed that they were delicious and asked her to teach her when she had time.

Qu Hanwen laughed at her for being worse than a young girl despite her age.

Xiao Fengying retaliated by stepping hard on her foot under the table.

Xiao Fengying is quite bored every day now. She comes from a prominent family and her ancestors left her more money than she can spend in a lifetime. Apart from shopping with some people of her age, she just eats, drinks and sleeps. She really has no pursuits in life.

Xiao Zhuo strongly agrees with his mother's idea of ​​learning cooking.

On the one hand, it allows her to divert her attention from always focusing on her marriage.

On the other hand, the food cooked by Gu Qinghuan was really delicious. If he could learn how to cook it, he would also have a great time.

Qu Hanwen did ask a few questions about Xu Huaian's situation, but Gu Qinghuan of course would not tell the truth and only said that he was out for a few days.

Xiao Zhuo probably knew something about the situation, so he ate his food in silence without explaining.

Wang Xiaowei was probably feeling a little uncomfortable, so she left with her child after dinner.

Gu Qinghuan didn't try to keep her either. After all, she was still breastfeeding someone else's child. Seeing how she was very careful about what she ate, not eating spicy or too sweet food, she guessed that the other person might have very strict requirements on her.

Before leaving, she gave Wang Xiaowei a thick cotton-padded jacket as a return gift because her jacket looked very thin and old.

Wang Xiaowei refused for a while, but finally accepted it with embarrassment.

He Qiang also took the opportunity to resign.

Gu Qinghuan gave him some dry goods and food brought from the Northeast. For him, real food might be more economical than anything else.

There was rice, flour, millet, soybeans, grits, etc., filling a bag, estimated to be about 50 kilograms.

He originally wanted to pack more, but he only had one hand to use now, and fifty kilograms was probably the limit.

He Qiang carried the bag on his shoulder with one hand and thanked Gu Qinghuan again and again.

He really needed these things. Food was scarce everywhere now, and his family had several people who were in the growing stage. These foods could solve his urgent needs.

When Xu Lei came, he brought some snacks made by his wife. They looked extremely delicate and even more beautiful than those sold on the counter. Only then did Gu Qinghuan know that his wife was the heiress of a time-honored pastry shop in Beijing.

It’s a pity that her luck was bad and her shop’s sign is no longer there, but she still occasionally makes some cakes to give to relatives and friends.

Gu Qinghuan had long noticed that although Xu Lei worked at the police station, his family might not be particularly wealthy.

I can use this as an excuse to help him.

So when he left, Gu Qinghuan ordered a batch of pastries from him and paid for them at the market price.

Xu Lei originally thought that she was going to eat it herself and said he was giving it to her as a gift. But when he heard that she wanted to order so much and had already given him the deposit, he knew that she really wanted it. He was so happy that he turned around and went back to tell his wife.

His wife started soaking the ingredients overnight.

His job sounds impressive, but he actually doesn't earn that much. His wife takes care of the children at home and secretly runs a small business, which is how their family can make ends meet.

It is very difficult to cross the class of the poor. It cannot be achieved by the efforts of just one generation. He was sponsored by Zhong Zijun when he was studying. Although he learned well, it is still difficult for him to become rich and become a superior person.

Gu Qinghuan also followed suit and sent him some food and daily necessities.

The last ones to leave were Xiao Zhuo’s family. They were the last to leave.

Qu Hanwen liked Dabao very much, so he teased him. Unexpectedly, Dabao answered questions fluently and clearly, which made him and Xiao Fengying very happy.

Xiao Fengying has long wanted to have a grandson, but her son is almost thirty years old and still not married, which makes her anxious to death.
