Chapter 340： exhausted

Chapter 340 Physically and mentally exhausted

Kyoto, No. 36, Chang'an Road.

Lan Shu will celebrate the New Year in her new house this year.

She and Xiaobai started to move one after another as early as last month.

Knowing that her parents and brothers would come, Lan Shu arranged rooms for everyone in advance.

In addition, she also reserved a place for her in-laws to live in.

But Gu Anguo and Wei Qiushuang felt that they were more used to living in the compound, and it was more lively when friends and neighbors visited during the Chinese New Year, so they did not agree to celebrate the New Year here.

In addition to his family this year, Xiaobai also took in someone to live here.

Ms. Lin, who lived in the first house at the bridge head of Linfu Street, Qingyang County, was taken to Kyoto by her grandson this year.

The old lady is getting old, and Xiaobai hopes to take her over to take care of her in the future.

But the old lady doesn’t want to live in the capital all the time. She said before she came that it’s okay to stay a little longer. She’s been in the capital for a long time, and she’ll miss those old sisters who chat with her every day on Linford Street.

Before Xiaobai made these arrangements, he had discussed with Lanshu.

Regarding the matter of taking Xiaobai's grandmother home, Lan Shu agreed without any hesitation.

She has had contact with Mrs. Lin. The old lady is very nice, and there will be no problem living together.

The house they bought is big, and the old lady agrees to stay for the elderly in the future.

It's just that the old lady has her own ideas and doesn't want to mix with the lives of young people.

…

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Bai took Lan Shu back to the compound early in the morning.

Follow the rules of relatives on the first day of the new year, and the married couple will go to the man's house to pay New Year's greetings and leave a meal on the first day of the new year.

Although they were going back to their own home, Xiaobai and Lanshu also brought gifts to visit their elders.

Cakes, rock sugar and brown sugar, and canned fruit bought in the supply and marketing cooperative are the most basic configurations.

In addition to these, Lan Shu also brought a whole set of skin care products and cosmetics produced by her own cosmetics company, packed in a gift box designed by herself, which looked exquisite and high-end.

Lan Shu still remembers that her mother-in-law, Wei Qiushuang, gave her a lipstick before, but now, there are ten lipsticks in her gift box!

Gu family, after Wei Qiushuang received the gift from her daughter-in-law, she liked it very much.

Which woman does not love beauty?

Even though Wei Qiushuang is now forty years old, deep down in her heart she still hopes that she will always look good.

While Lan Shu and Xiao Bai were sitting in the living room talking to their parents, there was a knock on the door outside with 'Boom, Boom, Boom,'.

Gu Anguo got up and went to open the door. Half a minute later, he followed Gu Cheng into the living room.

Today, Gu Cheng didn't have the usual proud expression, he seemed very tired, Lan Shu just raised his eyes and glanced over, and he could see the obvious bloodshot eyes in Gu Cheng's eyes, as well as the thick circles under his eyes.

Such Gu Cheng seems to have not slept well for many days.

Even Gu Anguo, a careless old man, could see the fatigue in his eldest son's eyes.

Gu Cheng walked in, and instead of sitting on the sofa, he moved a chair and sat next to the dining room not far from the living room.

Gu Anguo was a little displeased by his obvious separation of relationship with Xiaobai and Lanshu.

And when Wei Qiushuang saw Gu Cheng's attitude, he didn't bother to pay attention.

It's not her own son, and she can't feed him well, so she just ignored him.

It has nothing to do with Gu Cheng's appearance outside in the future.

Gu Cheng's main purpose of coming this time is not to celebrate the New Year with his family.

Even after he came, he didn't even react much when he saw Lan Shu.

This is entirely because there is another thing occupying his heart, which makes him exhausted, and he has no mind to think about other things.

This incident is also the reason why he has been sleepless and mentally exhausted lately—

…

More than ten days ago, Gu Cheng received a call from a stranger.

The call was made directly to his personal mobile phone, and the other party's voice was hoarse, as if something had covered up the original tone.

During the phone call, the man said that he was about to be found out about his murder in Qingyang County!

Just this one sentence made Gu Cheng's back wet with cold sweat in an instant—

"Who are you?!" Gu Cheng asked.

But the other party has hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone of 'Di...di...di...' on the phone, Gu Cheng panicked even more!

So he left Haicheng immediately and secretly went to Qingyang County to inquire about the news.

Through internal relations, Gu Cheng learned that more than a month ago, the Qingyang County Law Enforcement Team caught several local hooligans, and the other party accidentally confessed that they killed someone two years ago.

So there is now the result that the county law enforcement department attaches great importance to and strictly investigates this matter.

Gu Cheng didn't know who made the call to him before, but he knew that the other party must have a plan!

He hoped that the other party was looking for money, so he waited for the other party to call again.

But this time, the other party has no news at all.

On the contrary, he had a ghost in his heart. He was afraid that he would be found out about the crime he had paid for, so he couldn't sleep during the day and night, and his body was about to go wrong.

When he came back this time, Gu Cheng wanted to go home to find out what was true, and to find out if his father and Wei Qiushuang knew about it.

At the same time, he also suspected that Gu Jue might have made the phone call?

Gu Cheng knew that Gu Jue would go home for the New Year's Day, so he also came back to observe Gu Jue's expression, and judged whether this matter had anything to do with Gu Jue.

…

In the living room, Xiaobai just glanced at Gu Cheng indifferently at first, and then he didn't look at Gu Cheng again.

In Gu Cheng's view, all Gu Jue's attention was on Lan Shu and Wei Qiushuang.

The three of them were sitting on the sofa, eating melon seeds, eating fruits, and chatting leisurely.

The TV on the opposite side was on, but the three of them didn't watch much. Instead, they used the program on the TV as the background sound, and the topic revolved around pregnancy and children.

Wei Qiushuang smiled, her gaze was always on Lan Shu's stomach, she said to Lan Shu with an expectant expression.

"I don't know who this child looks like? But no matter which one of your husband and wife you choose, it must be good-looking!"

Wei Qiushuang is quite confident about her son's appearance!

And Lan Shu is also considered one of the most beautiful girls in a hundred, and the two of them look very good when they sit together.

"It's very hard to give birth to a child. Shu Shu gritted her teeth when the time came, and she must persevere. Just get over it."

"After the child is born, regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, if you don't want to have any more in the future, your parents will understand. After all, it is really not easy to have a child."

Wei Qiushuang has personally experienced this matter, so she can understand it.

Her thinking is not feudal, not the kind of mother-in-law who insists on her daughter-in-law to have grandchildren.

When Lan Shu heard this, she nodded immediately.

She has gone through most of the process of pregnancy, and it is indeed very hard.

After the child is born, she will not have the idea of ​​having another child in a short time, but it may not be certain in the future, just wait and see.

Now her mother-in-law can understand, and being able to tell her this makes Lan Shu feel very heart-warming.
