"Honey, let’s go inside." He Teng urged as he wrapped his arm around He Zhilan’s waist and walked in. The four of them, even though familiar with each other, did not greet. He Teng knew that most of the things Mother Gu bought were likely for He Zhilan.
He Teng had told Gu Hengyuan early on that He Zhilan was alive, and naturally, Gu Hengyuan would tell Mother Gu and Grandma Gu. Similarly, it wouldn’t be difficult for Mother Gu to find out about He Zhilan’s pregnancy check-up. However, Mother Gu probably didn’t expect that after He Teng took He Zhilan for a check-up, he’d take her shopping for baby items.
"We need to buy a baby bottle! I don’t know if I’ll have milk after giving birth, so I have to prepare formula in advance, lest we can’t find any when the baby needs it. Brother! Look at this outfit for the baby, isn’t it adorable? It’s bright red, with a big ’Fu’ character embroidered on it, so cute! And the buttons are frog closures! This little toy is also so cute! Listen, if you squeeze it, it makes a sound! Isn’t it fun?"
It seed that the appearance of Mother Gu and Mother Lan did not affect He Zhilan’s mood at all. Once inside, He Zhilan remained in good spirits and was very excited when she saw the baby clothes.
He Teng also didn’t pay attention to the two still standing there and followed He Zhilan’s gaze to the clothes, nodding, "Looks great!"
The young couple was happily shopping, and soon their hands were full of items. anwhile, Mother Lan sighed, called to Mother Gu, "Let’s head back."
Mother Gu also nodded, having naturally lost the heart to continue shopping. She just looked down at the things she bought, feeling sentintal, not knowing if there would be an opportunity to give them away or if she would have the chance to hold her grandson.
From the mont she heard from her husband that He Zhilan had survived and was pregnant, Mother Gu’s emotions had been like a roller coaster, constantly up and down.
Knowing He Zhilan was alive and pregnant, every day Mother Gu hoped for her to return soon, and she prayed continuously, wishing her daughter and grandson health and safety.
In the countryside, Grandma Gu had personally made many baby slings, clothes, and little shoes over the past half year. During this ti, her life revolved around making sothing for her soon-to-be-born great-grandson.
Over the past six months, other than visiting her son in prison, Grandma Gu didn’t stay in the capital. For the Gu Family, the capital might not hold fond mories. After all, it was there that they repeatedly hurt He Zhilan until she was covered in bruises and ended up hating the Gu Family to the core.
After returning from the check-up, He Teng strictly controlled He Zhilan’s diet. Previously, it was He Teng who specially brought her snacks and biscuits from the city, but once he returned, he distributed them without leaving a single biscuit for He Zhilan.
During als, He Teng used to compel He Zhilan to eat a bit more, but now He Zhilan would pitifully hold her bowl, pleading with He Teng to let her have an extra bite.
He Zhilan’s big appetite had developed ever since she beca pregnant. While in the village, because of the kindness of the villagers and not lacking money, she would always receive fruits from them or ask others to buy her snacks and pastries, never skipping a al.
