Mrs. Xu moved all her things to her room. Xu Ling tried to persuade her, but she reminded Xu Ling to look after you.
Gu You also knew what his mother-in-law was like, so he thought about it sideways and went to the yard.
Xu Ling was speechless, "Mom, she is my wife, can you stop doing this?"
Xu's eyes widened, and she pretended to pinch him and shouted, "She is dishonest! If you were nicer to her, she would run away!"
Would she run away if she was kind to Gu Tuo?
What a fallacy!
Xu Ling snatched the cloth from her hand and put it on the table, "I've never heard of a daughter-in-law who would run away after enjoying her fortune. You are just biased against Gu Tao!"
Mrs. Xu couldn't bear it and shouted: "Son, what do you mean? I'm not doing this all for you, okay?"
"If it's for my own good, just listen to me, get along well with Gu You, and enjoy happiness in the future!"
"Then what if she takes away all the good things in our house? What if she runs away with someone else behind your back?"
Ms. Xu was very vigilant because her son finally got a wife. She has to be careful not only about her daughter-in-law going to her parents' house, but also about her daughter-in-law stealing from others, so she is very busy!
Xu Ling helplessly held his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Mom, who can she give the good things to? I am willing to give them to my father-in-law and his family. Think about it, if my father-in-law hadn't persuaded me to change, I would have earned so much How much money will you get back?"
"If he hadn't married Gu Tao to me, would you have a granddaughter?"
"If Gu Tao wants to take something from the house, just let her take it. Now that my son can make money, I will never let you have enough food and clothing and no warmth like before," Xu Ling said, seeing Mrs. Xu's face He felt so lonely, and thought that the woman in front of him had become so mean and stingy because of the three brothers and sisters, he couldn't help but soften his heart.
He held Xu's hand, helped her sit down on the bench, half-knelt in front of her, and comforted her earnestly.
"Mom, I know you are doing it for your son's good. You are thinking about your son in your heart. When I am suffering and tired outside, I am also thinking about my mother. I just think, it would be great if my mother was here."
"Son..." Mrs. Xu's lips trembled, tears dripping down her rough hands. She wanted to touch Xu Ling's face.
Xu Ling did not dodge and allowed her to touch him.
"You've lost weight, you've been suffering outside!"
She would rather she was the one who couldn't eat or sleep well, rather than have her son work so hard!
Xu Ling felt sour in his heart. He blinked his eyes, held back his tears, and persuaded her while the iron was hot: "So, mother, just listen to me. From now on, let Gu Tao take care of all the big and small things at home. You can enjoy a happy life and take care of your aunt." , Only in this way can you take good care of your body and live a long life.”
Leave everything at home to Gu You? Ms. Xu was a little alarmed, so give her all the money Xu Ling earned? That won't work!
Seeing her expression change, Xu Ling quickly got ahead of her and continued to pour her the ecstasy soup: "When Gu You gives me another son, just wait until you have a grandson! Let's send him to study! Take the imperial examination!"
Sure enough, when she mentioned her missing grandson, Mrs. Xu immediately smiled from ear to ear.
"Oh, if you could give me a grandson, I would be willing to die!"
Xu Ling didn't understand where the older generation's obsession with their grandson came from, but at this time he could only follow her words.
"Don't worry, it will definitely happen! So, mother, will you listen to me?"
The old lady smiled happily, thinking of her beautiful grandson, "I will listen, of course I will!"
"That's good! If you obey, you will be my good mother. Just wait and enjoy the blessings!"
Xu Ling used the tricks he used in his previous life to coax his mother into getting married, which made Mrs. Xu so dizzy that she almost forgot her last name.
The Xu family is a popular girl, and Xu Ling asked her and Gu You to make two sets of clothes for each member of the family. Winter is coming soon, so how can they do it without thicker clothes?
Mrs. Xu also agreed, took out a wooden ruler and began to measure the cloth, chattering about what to do.
Xu Ling took the opportunity to leave the main room and saw that Gu Tao was not in the yard, so he went to the backyard to take a look. When he first left the village, the vegetables in the backyard had just been planted. Now, all the vegetables in his space have been harvested. The leeks and onions in the garden have been harvested. And the cabbage has just sprouted.
He took the opportunity to take out the gift for Gu Tao from the space, wrapped it in a silk brocade handkerchief embroidered with lotus and mandarin ducks, and checked it over. Thinking about Gu Tao's reaction, his palms became a little sweaty.
Xu Ling wiped the sweat on his body, put the handkerchief in his arms, and then walked towards his room.
He pushed open the creaking wooden door. The house still looked dilapidated. It had been tidied up and the holes in the roof had been repaired.
Gu Tao was sitting on a bed covered with hay, with one leg hanging out of the bed. She was holding Da Ya in her arms, unbuttoning her clothes, and was breastfeeding Da Ya.
When Xu Ling saw this scene, his face turned red instantly. All the words he had just thought about were frightened away, and he quickly turned away.
Hearing the rustling sound of Gu You getting dressed, after a long while, Gu You put the sleeping child down, covered him with a quilt, and said softly: "Okay."
Xu Ling turned around in embarrassment, not daring to raise his head. He lowered his head and kicked the air on the ground, "Then what? Da Ya is already one and a half years old, why are you feeding her..."
Gu You pursed his lips. The sun shone in through the window and the smoke and dust in the air were clearly visible, as if there was an embarrassing layer of mist filling the small space.
As she fastened the buttons, she explained softly: "Da Ya is too thin. She always cries when she can't sleep well at night. I have no milk...she eats and plays."
Xu Ling looked up at her and saw her slowly and slowly groping with her clean and slender hands around her neck, trying to tighten the buckle. After speaking, her pale lips were pursed tightly, and those cold apricot eyes met his for less than half a second before turning aside in embarrassment.
Her jade dumpling-like ears were dyed crimson, her temples were messy, and her tight neckline was exposed, just like Xu Ling's dream that day.
Gu Tao was also shy.
Xu Ling didn't seem so shy anymore. He couldn't help but want to laugh. He was a man now, so he should take the initiative. What's more, this was his wife, what was he afraid of?
To embolden himself, Xu Ling moved to the bedside and sat next to Gu Tao, with one of Gu Tao's legs touching his knee.
Let's do this for now, Xu Ling is afraid that the things he did in the past will frighten her.
Always take your time.
"Daughter-in-law." Xu Ling called tentatively.
Gu You's body trembled, and she finally clasped the buckle of the plate. She didn't dare to make a big move and slowly exhaled, her voice trembling, "Yeah."
Xu Ling received a response and was encouraged.
He scratched his head, savoring the feeling. He took out the veil from his arms.
"I brought you something, see if you like it."
As if sharing it with a playmate, he moved his butt back and spread the veil on the bed, revealing several things.
"What are you bringing me?" Gu Tao replied calmly, "I don't have anything at home..."
She turned her head, saw the silver hairpin on the handkerchief, and Xu Ling's expectant eyes, and swallowed the rest of her words.
