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

Zhong Luoning said that Gu Lanting works at the Overseas Chinese Hotel, which is also close to the city center.

It was still early and going there would probably disturb him at work, so Gu Qinghuan took the children for a walk around the neighborhood and looked for a suitable place to stay.

This place is not far from Beijing City Hospital, so it will be convenient for Xu Huaian to see a doctor.

As for the two houses that Zhong Zijun gave her, she didn't know what the situation was now, so she shouldn't rush over and alert the enemy.

The two of them went to several places before they decided on a small house in an alley. They did it for the fact that they could check out at any time. Most landlords wanted long-term rentals, but they were not sure about what would happen next, so they only wanted a short-term rental.

However, renting a house is more cost-effective than staying in a guesthouse. You can cook your own meals and have private space. Most importantly, it is cheap.

Guesthouses in Beijing are still not cheap, so you should save where you can.

After putting the luggage away, it was almost time for lunch.

Gu Qinghuan led his family to the Overseas Chinese Hotel to find Gu Lanting.

Gu Lanting huddled in the small storage room, eating cold steamed buns with water.

Although the meals in the hotel are subsidized, they still cost money. He feels that it is not cost-effective and wants to save more money to send to his sister.

At this moment, the door of the storage room suddenly opened.

"Gu Lanting, someone is looking for you."

After saying that, Gu Lanting looked up and saw his sister whom he hadn't seen for more than a year. For a moment, they both stood there in a daze.

Gu Qinghuan felt an unspeakable sense of intimacy in her heart, which came from her original body's love and longing for her younger brother.

"sister?"

"Lanting, you've lost weight."

They both spoke at the same time.

Gu Lanting stood up and quietly hid the cold steamed bun behind him, then rushed over with a smile and gave his sister a big hug.

Gu Qinghuan had never experienced this kind of blood connection feeling before. This person was her younger brother, a family member who was closely related to her.

She gently hugged Gu Lanting back. This guy had starved herself to the point where she was just a bag of bones. Don't think that she didn't see his actions just now.

Alas, it’s all about money.

But now that she is here, it won’t happen again.

After the surprise, Gu Lanting began to feel guilty. Why did his sister come to see him? Maybe Luo Ning told her, right?

"Sister..." He lowered his head guiltily, secretly observing her expression from time to time.

Gu Qinghuan was not angry, she just felt sorry for the child.

"Let's go, let's talk about it outside. I have prepared a surprise for you this time." Gu Qinghuan said mysteriously.

Gu Lanting didn't expect that the surprise his sister mentioned was actually his brother-in-law with two children.

This isn't a surprise, it's a shock, okay?

How could his sister, who is such a good person, marry a divorced man?

Although this man has a nice appearance.

Didn't my sister always like Yun Nianzhou? Did she really let him go?

Gu Lanting looked at Xu Huaian with eyes that were almost spitting fire, as if he wanted to pierce through him.

Gu Qinghuan just watched the fun and did not help.

Xu Huaian touched his head awkwardly. It seemed that his brother-in-law was quite hostile to him. But when he thought about it, it was reasonable. He really had accidentally picked up a huge bargain.

Therefore, whatever Gu Qinghuan’s relatives treat him is what they should do.

"Hello, Lanting, my name is Xu Huaian." Xu Huaian stretched out his hand and greeted warmly.

Gu Lanting glared at him fiercely, stretched out his hand to hold it, and squeezed it hard in a somewhat childish way, trying to intimidate Xu Huaian.

Unexpectedly, Xu Huaian didn't react at all, as if he didn't feel any pain. He even said enthusiastically, "Let's go eat first. If there's anything, we can talk about it after we're full."

"My dears, you haven't greeted your uncle yet." Xu Huaian pulled out the two children hiding behind him.

The two children had just secretly seen Gu Lanting's unfriendly attitude towards their father. They were a little scared, but they still said timidly, "Hello, uncle."

Gu Lanting is actually a very good child. He is just hostile towards Xu Huaian, who took his sister away. He is much gentler towards the other two children.

"Hello, you must be hungry. Let's go eat first." Gu Lanting touched the last two yuan and thirty cents and a few food coupons on his body. He was a little nervous, not knowing whether they were enough.

I didn’t know what worry felt like before, and I never cared about two dollars. Now I can only bow down for a few bowls of rice.

These years of training have made him well-versed in human nature at a young age.

Since my sister brought them here, I think she has accepted them in her heart. If I show too much resistance, it will make it difficult for her and affect their relationship.

But as a younger brother, he still had to express his attitude and give his new brother-in-law a warning. He couldn't let this new brother-in-law think that his sister was easy to bully.

Gu Qinghuan saw this and couldn't help but develop a natural liking for this younger brother.

He's a good kid.

A few people walked along this street and came to a place to eat. Beijing is better than small places. There are many choices of restaurants, all of which are state-owned restaurants.

Gu Qinghuan sat down with the two children. Gu Lanting wanted to order food, but was stopped by Gu Qinghuan: "Sit down, let your brother-in-law go, this is his responsibility."

Gu Lanting didn't want his brother-in-law to look down on them the first time he came, but Xu Huaian had already walked over naturally, so he didn't insist.

Xu Huaian still had some pocket money given by Gu Qinghuan, so he was the one who went to get food and buy other things along the way.

After living with Gu Qinghuan for so long, he already had a rough idea of ​​her taste.

We ordered the famous local Beijing-style fried tripe, roast duck, stir-fried liver and Beijing-style shredded pork with sauce, and finally a serving of stir-fried vegetables and rice.

Looking at the dishes coming up one after another, Gu Lanting wanted to say that they were too many and too luxurious.

But seeing that his sister and his cheap brother-in-law had normal consumption expressions on their faces, even the two children didn't seem particularly surprised.

He could only swallow his doubts. Now was not the time to talk. Let's eat first.

After dinner, there was still some time, so Gu Qinghuan took Gu Lanting to the small courtyard where she was temporarily staying. The two siblings hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally they had to exchange greetings.

Xu Huaian considerately took the two children out for a walk, helping them digest their food, and left some space for the siblings.

"Sister, what's going on, why would you...?" Marry this person?

"It was also a coincidence. Your brother-in-law is a retired soldier. He is a nice guy and treats me very well. He doesn't look down on our family background and he takes good care of our grandparents and mom. He adopted the two children before he retired from the army.

Don't think too much, I'm doing well now." Gu Qinghuan said this, she really felt that she was doing well now.

Xu Huaian does not have the male chauvinism that men have nowadays. He can understand her and always follows her ideas. The two children are also well-behaved, and it is good for the two of them to live together.

Gu Lanting didn't think so. He thought his sister had given up on herself, gone with the flow, and given up on herself.
