Chapter 837: Chapter 839: Gained Weight
The chaotic affairs of the Xu Family no longer interested Xu Nianhua. She followed Pei Yicheng and Xu Nian’an, boarding the car heading towards South City.
Xu Nian’an specifically took a day off from his master Du Chang; his little sister was going to the Gu Family, and as the second brother, he definitely needed to go and see.
Even Xu Nianji deliberately skipped his delivery and joined them in going to the Gu Family. In the hearts of those brothers, the Gu Family was a dragon’s lair; how could they let their younger siblings venture there alone?
Throughout the journey, the only one really happy was Gu Mingcheng; finally, his second sister was willing to return home.
The landscape outside the window swiftly moved by, and even the hot weather seemed bearable to Gu Mingcheng as he happily introduced to Xu Nianhua the situation of the Gu Family.
"Second Sister, Mom and Dad have long prepared a room for you; I’ve seen it, it’s decorated very nicely!"
"And, they’ve also had Auntie prepare delicious dishes, once we get home, I’m sure you’ll love them."
Gu Mingcheng, fully focused on the family reunion, couldn’t hide his enthusiastic tone.
Xu Nianji and Xu Nian’an exchanged glances, both pondering the same matter: apart from Gu Mingzhu, who knows what Gu Hai and Fang Yue are really thinking!
This time going to the Gu Family, they must keep their eyes wide open and see clearly.
Xu Nianhua fell into silence; the closer she was to returning to the Gu Family, past memories surged like a tide, flooding her mind.
This time, she must protect her family; no one will harm them in the slightest.
Xu Nianhua silently vowed in her heart.
The Gu Family.
Gu Hai and Fang Yue received the news that Gu Mingcheng would be bringing Xu Nianhua home today; they specifically asked Gu Mingcheng to invite Jiang Jing for dinner.
Although Gu Mingzhu and Jiang Jing had only obtained a marriage certificate without holding a grand wedding ceremony, relatives and friends from both families had witnessed it.
Jiang Jing was busy with work, and Gu Mingzhu was accustomed to living at her parental home. Whenever Jiang Jing had free time, he would come to the Gu Family, sometimes taking Gu Mingzhu back to the Jiang Family for a short stay.
Jiang’s mother wasn’t pleased; what daughter-in-law lives at her maiden home all the time?
But Gu Mingzhu played weak, saying that being pregnant made her exceptionally crave her parental home. As soon as she stayed at the Jiang Family, she felt uncomfortable, sickly; Jiang’s mother didn’t want to trouble the child inside her, so she had to let Gu Mingzhu stay at her parental home.
At the same time, the Jiang Family’s supplies continually flowed to the Gu Family.
"Mingzhu, how is it? Was the baby good today?" Jiang Jing looked at Gu Mingzhu’s protruding belly; thinking about the child within, his heart was filled with endless anticipation and tenderness.
"Good, knows that Daddy is coming to see him, definitely good!" Gu Mingzhu said sweetly, "Jing Brother, my little sister is coming home today. She’s been adrift since childhood, and now finally returns; I’m so happy."
"Happy with you." Jiang Jing placed his hand on Gu Mingzhu’s elevated belly, feeling the life within, he said, "Our baby must be blessed; even before birth, he’s brought back his long-lost little aunt."
Gu Mingzhu nestled against his shoulder, beaming with happiness; hearing his words, her cheerful expression suddenly froze.
"Right, our baby indeed is blessed!" Gu Mingzhu echoed his words, slightly tilting her head, her eyes cast with her own reflection, she said, "Jing Brother, have I become chubby and ugly?"
"No, my Mingzhu is the prettiest." Jiang Jing carefully examined Gu Mingzhu; since becoming pregnant, Gu Mingzhu’s complexion improved due to prenatal nourishment, and she gained some weight. Yet Jiang Jing felt that the maternal glow enhanced Gu Mingzhu’s beauty more than her previous slenderness.
