Lin Wanwan knew that the Gu family's situation was not good and there was not much food at home.
She didn't want Mother Gu to suffer because of her. She picked up a package and opened it. There were some dry goods, dried mushrooms, dried fungus, and dried bamboo shoots. In an era like this, these things are very precious.
Lin Wanwan was very touched. She knew that these things must have been carefully selected by Gu's mother in order for her to take them back to her parents' home without losing face. She was grateful and her eyes were a little moist. She raised her head and looked at Gu's mother, "Mom, thank you."
"Hey, thank you. This is what I posted myself. It's not worth much. Then go ahead."
Mother Gu smiled and said.
There was a hint of helplessness and reluctance in Gu's mother's smile. She gently patted the back of Lin Wanwan's hand and said, "Wanwan, you are a good child and know how to be considerate of my mother. Although these dry goods are not valuable, they are still my mother's share. I mean. You take it back to your parents’ home and let your mother know that although our family is poor, we will not treat you badly.”
Lin Wanwan felt even more moved after hearing what Gu's mother said. She knew that Gu's mother was reluctant to let her take these things away, but she didn't want her to lose face in her parents' family. She held Gu's mother's hand tightly, with a firm light shining in her eyes, "Mom, don't worry, Gu Yishen and I will live a good life in the future."
"Really, if you keep nagging, we won't be able to get back and forth in one day."
Gu Yishen was impatient with waiting.
Lin Wanwan could only pick up the things and follow quickly.
"You hold it, it's too heavy."
Lin Wanwan pushed two packages of things to Gu Yishen.
"Okay, okay, I'll get it. Don't be so anxious. Just say when you're tired and we can take a rest."
Gu Yi looked at her deeply and pursed his lips. He was worried that she was too fat to walk.
Lin Wanwan's eyes flashed with sadness, but she still raised her head stubbornly and faced Gu Yi's direct gaze. She smiled softly, pretending to be relaxed and said, "I knew you disliked me for being fat."
Gu Yi was stunned. He didn't expect Lin Wanwan to think so. He hurriedly explained: "That's not what I meant, I was just worried about you..."
Lin Wanwan didn't let him finish. She took over the words: "I know, you are afraid that I won't be able to walk. Don't worry, I can do it."
After she finished speaking, she walked quickly to her parents' house.
Gu Yi looked deeply at her back, shook his head helplessly, and then hurriedly followed. He couldn't make Lin Wanwan angry.
In Lin Wanwan's natal family.
Ever since Lin Wanwan got married, her father, Lin Daniu, has been missing her all day long.
He often sits under the eaves alone, looking into the distance and muttering Lin Wanwan's name.
Zhang Chunhua often teases Lin Daniu, "Isn't it just a daughter getting married? Isn't it a normal thing? You feel like you have lost a treasure."
Lin Daniu said, "Lin Wanwan is my treasure."
Zhang Chunhua couldn't talk to him, so she had no choice but to let him go. Hope he can figure it out soon.
On the way back to her parents' home, Lin Wanwan was in a very excited mood. It had been a long time since she had seen her father, and she missed him very much. After all, Lin Daniu was the only one who was kind to her in her family.
The journey was quite hard, but when she thought about returning to her parents' home, Lin Wanwan was very excited and not tired at all.
Gu Yishen was also surprised that Lin Wanwan felt tired after walking a few steps. But along the way today, she didn't even complain that she was tired. It really made people feel that she was holding on hard.
Lin Wanwan walked in front, and Gu Yishen followed behind. Along the way, Gu Yishen wanted to talk to her, but Lin Wanwan walked too fast and couldn't communicate.
As they walked along, the scenery of the fields was beautiful, but compared with Lin Wanwan's mood when she returned home, she had no intention of enjoying it.
After running all the way, they finally arrived at the entrance of the village.
"Oh, isn't this Lin Wanwan? Why are you back?"
Aunt Zhang from the village saw Lin Wanwan and joked, "Oh, you brought back such a few things. Your husband's family is really stingy."
Gu Yishen touched his nose awkwardly and said nothing, feeling a little embarrassed.
Lin Wanwan didn't take it seriously. She knew that Aunt Zhang deliberately made people uncomfortable.
"This is a treasure given to me by my mother-in-law. I brought it back to my father. You are not envious of it. Do you have a daughter? Has your daughter brought you such a good thing?"
Lin Wanwan said to Aunt Zhang with a smile, her eyes full of disdain.
After saying that, she took Gu Yishen and left.
"You, you... how do you speak? Are you imitating your stepmother? Let me tell you, you are just as vicious as her."
Aunt Zhang was so angry that she couldn't say anything nice, so she took Zhang Chunhua as an example.
"Don't care what other people say, we don't live our lives for them to see. We just need to be happy." Lin Wanwan glanced at Gu Yishen.
"That person was too much. He didn't know how to respect others at all. He was sour when he opened his mouth."
Gu Yishen said while following Lin Wanwan.
Not long after, Lin Wanwan and Gu Yishen finally arrived at their parents' home.
Lin Wanwan walked straight into the house and shouted as soon as she entered, "Dad, I'm back."
"Father-in-law, Wanwan and I are back to see you." Gu Yi smiled deeply.
Father Lin raised his head and saw his daughter and son-in-law coming back, with a long-lost smile on his face. He stood up in a hurry and greeted her, "Wanwan, you are finally back."
Lin Wanwan felt sad when she saw her father's white hair and thin face.
She held back tears and said with a smile, "Yes, I'm back."
Lin Wanwan's words puzzled Gu Yishen. He didn't understand why Lin Wanwan was so excited. It's not just that we haven't seen each other for a few days, so we shouldn't be so excited. However, he still followed Lin Wanwan closely and walked into the house together.
Zhang Chunhua was busy in the house. When she saw Lin Wanwan and Gu Yishen coming back, she happily greeted them, "Oh, you guys are back. I cooked your favorite dish. These days, your dad is always talking about You, tell me why you haven’t come back to see him.”
When Zhang Chunhua saw what Gu Yishen was holding, she smiled even more and kept looking at the two things.
Gu Yishen just came back to his senses, smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, these are some of the work my mother did. I'll bring them back for you to try."
With that said, he handed it to Zhang Chunhua.
Zhang Chunhua took the things and looked at them carefully, with an expression of joy on her face. She opened the paper package, and a scent of fragrance hit her nostrils. She gently touched the contents inside with her fingers, tears of excitement flashing in her eyes, "Oh, this is a good thing. It's such a rare treasure, thank you for your hard work."
Lin Wanwan looked at Zhang Chunhua's look and breathed a sigh of relief knowing that she didn't dislike her. Otherwise, with Zhang Chunhua’s character, she wouldn’t be able to talk about it everywhere!
"Just come back. You don't need to bring anything. Say hello to your mother for me. Come back more often in the future. You don't need to bring anything. Dad has everything here."
Lin Daniu looked at his daughter and son-in-law and said.
