Gu Xiangyi and the child were taken out of the hospital and stayed at Gu's house to recuperate after giving birth. Zhan Mingzhao took a leave of absence to take care of them personally. The house was so busy that everyone was overwhelmed. It was only under the command of Zhan Aiping that things gradually became orderly.
Most of the mess is created by stupid dads.
"Sister, is this how you hold a baby?"
"right."
"I'm afraid he's not feeling well."
"You're doing fine. Remember to burp the baby."
Zhan Aiping called both families. She called the Gu family first and told Gu Ze'an and his wife that their little sister had given birth. "It's a boy, a little grandson."
Gu Ze'an and his wife were beaming with joy: "It's good that the baby is born, it's good that the baby is born. I have been so worried these past few days... That day is a good day. My little grandson is great. He is really good at choosing a good day..."
Gu Ze'an was so happy that he was incoherent. Now that their little daughter had given birth to a child safely, the couple had nothing to worry about, except for the other three bachelors in the family.
Qin Ying said: "After the baby is born, who will the baby look like? The father or the mother? I don't know if he will be a naughty one."
Zhan Aiping hesitated and said, "... He should look like his uncle, right?"
Gu Ze'an paused for a moment and said, "Aren't you talking nonsense? He has so many uncles, the key is which uncle he looks like."
"In my opinion, the couple's sons should look more like the second son. The second son is reliable. The third son, the third son is unreliable. The fourth son... the son-in-law's face shape can't give birth to a fourth son. The fifth son, well, the fifth son's handsome face looks like me."
Zhan Aiping: “Puff—”
Qin Ying asked: "Which uncle does he look like?"
Zhan Aiping: "You'll know when you come and take a look. Maybe they look a little bit alike."
After hanging up the phone with the Gu family, he called the Zhan family. When Zhan Bo knew that he had a grandson, his face beamed with joy. This was his eldest grandson, and he was born safely.
"Six pounds? He's not very big. Who does he look like?"
Zhan Aiping said: "Maybe he looks like the child's mother."
Zhan Bo said: "It's good to look like the child's mother. You and Ming Zhao both look like the child's mother."
Zhu Jiaorong said at the side: "Our Xiaokang looks most like you, and his son will definitely look like you in the future."
Zhan Bo said: "That's not necessarily the case."
Both families said they would take time to visit the child. Zhu Jiaorong also wanted to come and take care of her daughter-in-law during the confinement period, but Zhan Aiping refused. Zhu Jiaorong's purpose was not to take care of her during the confinement period, she just wanted to visit Zhan Mingkang.
Zhu Jiaorong was anxious: "So many educated youth have returned to the city, when will Xiaokang come back?"
Zhanbo advised her: "Xiaokang has only been in the countryside for a few years, don't be in a hurry. The city is in chaos now. How many fights have happened?"
"You don't even give him a job."
"It's too late. It's too late now." Zhanbo shook his head. "There are too many young people who want to go back to the city. They are all crowded together. You can't see it. Some people can't live in their houses. They sleep on the streets. A few wooden boards make a house. There is no place to stay."
Zhu Jiaorong: "Can our house not accommodate him?"
"I still need a job. The jobs nowadays are not suitable. There are too many people. Not to mention sweeping the streets, even sweeping toilets is popular among people."
Zhu Jiaorong said angrily, "You are not willing to lower your face and run for your son."
Zhanbo sighed and said, "I can only find him a temporary job. He doesn't want to do these jobs. Xiaokang said he will stay in the countryside first and I will find him when there is a good job."
Zhu Jiaorong: “…”
*
Gu Xiangyi looked at the child beside him, poked his little face, turned to Zhan Aiping and said, "His brother is sweet and sour pork, or sister-in-law, let's call him barbecued pork."
Zhan Aiping was choked. "Barbecued pork?" When I dislike my son in the future, will I say that it's better to give birth to a piece of barbecued pork than to give birth to you
"Pot-fried pork and barbecued pork make a perfect pair of meats. They're plump and smart."
Zhan Aiping suggested that she change her name: "Why not change it? Didn't you hear the people over there say giving birth to a barbecued pork..."
Give birth to a barbecued pork boy
Gu Xiangyi: “…”
"How about calling her Little Tanggao?" Gu Xiangyi thought of another name. "Little Tanggao sounds like a girl, so let's call her Little Bean Bun."
"Brother, sweet and sour pork, sister, small glutinous rice balls, here comes a small bean bun."
Zhan Aiping said: "Both the small glutinous rice balls and the small bean buns have stuffing."
"It's delicious!" Gu Xiangyi thought that as long as it tasted good, it was enough. She liked small buns with red bean filling.
"My boy, from now on you will be called Little Bean Bun."
Several children gathered around to look at Xiao Dou Bao. Xiao Tang Yuan said: "Mom, is my brother called Xiao Dou Bao?"
Sweet and sour pork: "Sweet and sour pork, small bean buns?"
Little Tangyuan: "Only Brother Orange is different from us. He is in the same team with your second-grade Brother Mango."
Lu Cheng emphasized: "I am not Brother Orange!"
"You are Brother Orange." Little Tangyuan said with a smile, "I love eating oranges. Cut one, and then cut another."
"Gu Yuanyuan!!!"
Zhan Aiping pushed them out, "Don't quarrel in front of your aunt. Don't disturb your aunt's rest. Shush, shush, shush. And don't bother your little brother. You have to set a good example for your brother and don't lead him astray."
A baby who has just been born changes his appearance every day. The more Gu Xiangyi watched, the more she felt that she was also affected by the psychological effect. She watched Zhan Mingzhao change the diaper of the little bean bun, and she laughed out loud.
Zhan Mingzhao was puzzled: "What are you laughing at?"
Gu Xiangyi laughed so hard that she slapped the bed!!! She really couldn't help laughing.
"Sister, come and see, the mother of the baby who is in confinement is laughing like crazy."
As soon as Zhan Aiping came in, she found that Gu Xiangyi was laughing so hard that she even had cramps. "It hurts, it hurts, sister-in-law, I have cramps."
Zhan Aiping didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She went over to give her a massage. A woman who was in confinement after giving birth was so happy. "What's the matter that makes you laugh like that? You even laughed yourself into a cramp."
"Hey, I feel much better. I'm most afraid of cramps. It hurts so much." Gu Xiangyi changed her posture. She looked at Zhan Mingzhao and his son again and couldn't help laughing: "Sister-in-law, I'm dying of laughter. This little bean bun really looks a bit like my eldest brother, hahaha."
"When I saw Ming Zhao changing the baby's diaper, I wanted to laugh, sister-in-law, I couldn't help it, hahahahahaha..."
Zhan Mingzhao was stunned. He was affected by Gu Xiangyi's smile. Gu Xiangyi was saying that his son Xiaodoubao looked like his elder brother? Gu Xiangyi's elder brother? ! !
Gu Yao
Gu Yao's old-fashioned face suddenly appeared in his mind, like a bolt from the blue, hitting his head and making his hands that were holding his son go limp.
No wonder Zhan Mingzhao always felt something was not right when he looked at his son. He looked very familiar, but he couldn’t figure out where he looked familiar.
It turns out he looks like Boss Gu.
Zhan Mingzhao: "... Stop talking, the more you look at him, the more he looks like Big Brother."
Zhan Aiping was silent for a while. She hadn't talked about this topic for a long time. She didn't expect that Gu Xiangyi would take the initiative to bring it up.
She advised: "Nephews look like their uncles, it's normal, normal."
"Yes, he looks like his uncle." As the child's biological mother, Gu Xiangyi said that she got used to it after watching it for a while, and she felt particularly happy, "Sister-in-law, look, spank him - hahaha."
"No, I am so happy just thinking about my big brother's face."
"Spank my big brother!"
Zhan Aiping's mouth twitched. She didn't quite understand Gu Xiaomei's sense of humor.
But Zhan Mingzhao is worthy of being Gu Xiangyi's husband. They have the same sense of humour. They are two funny little guys who are always happy. Zhan Mingzhao: "He is like an elder brother. Now he is in our hands..."
“Hahahaha!!!” Gu Xiangyi laughed very loudly. She said loudly, “From now on, we must spank his little butt in front of Big Brother.”
Are the two of them trying to piss off the big brother to death
This is a bit too arrogant.
Zhan Aiping: “…”
After leaving the room and waiting for Gu Sheng to come back, Zhan Aiping told Gu Sheng about this and said teasingly, "Do you feel like you have escaped death? This nephew looks like his uncle, and he didn't spank you. Look at your little sister, and then look at your little brother-in-law. If the child looks like you, I will spank his little butt in front of you."
"They mock you every day."
Gu Sheng: “…” This sister is really annoying.
"I'm not afraid. I'm still his brother-in-law. I'm still the husband of her eldest sister-in-law. With a sister like you around, you will definitely love him like my own child."
Zhan Aiping: "It hurts me."
Gu Sheng: "Like big brother's?"
Zhan Aiping laughed out loud: "It hurts, but it won't stop me from making fun of my brother."
"More than that, you are definitely at the forefront."
Zhan Aiping secretly rubbed her teeth in anticipation and said, "When I think of someone with that face and a personality like my younger brother and Xiangyi, I really want to laugh, hahahaha."
He looks like the naive and innocent kid of the eldest brother.
Gu Sheng said: "Personality is not necessarily the same."
“Yeah, all kids are different.”
Zhanbo and his wife came to see the child first. Zhanbo had only one grandson, and he always thought about him after he became a grandfather. When he came over and saw the little Doubao, Zhanbo was overwhelmed by the huge surprise.
Zhan Bo's eyes widened. He couldn't believe it: "This child looks a lot like the eldest brother of the Gu family..."
The eldest brother of the Gu family is very adept at pursuing a career in politics. If someone looks like the eldest brother Gu, wouldn't he be a high-ranking official in the future? You should know that the eldest brother of the Gu family has not yet married and has children. If there is a nephew who looks like him, he should be supported and he will also pursue a career in politics in the future.
Zhan Bo now felt like he had eaten a fairy peach. As long as he thought about the possible future, he would ascend to heaven.
"My grandson is incredible, incredible. He looks like a big shot at first glance." Zhan Bo murmured, overjoyed.
Zhu Jiaorong had slept with him for many years, so how could she not guess what Zhanbo was thinking? She twitched her lips and said, "I hope I can find a wife in the future."
Zhan Bo glared at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense about my grandson. He is the hope of our Zhan family."
In his opinion, neither of his two sons would be able to achieve anything, and only this little grandson would be able to accomplish great things and become a high-ranking official in the future.
"Let's name my grandson Zhan Hongtu!"
"Great ambitions" is a perfect meaning, and this name suddenly popped into Zhanbo's mind.
Zhan Mingzhao and Gu Xiangyi refused to name the little bean bun Zhan Hongtu. Zhan Mingzhao picked and named the little bean bun Zhan Xuan.
The couple Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping all gave their children single-character names, Gu Chen, Gu Yuan, and Gu Mian. They usually don't call them by their full names, but by their nicknames.
Gu Xiangyi said, "I have to write down my son's name, in case I keep calling him Little Bean Bun and forget his real name."
"I met a sister-in-law last time, and she asked me what Xiao Tangyuan's last name was. I said, of course Xiao Tangyuan's last name is Xiao—huh?"
As a mother, Gu Xiangyi was afraid of forgetting her son's name, so she decided to write it down and look at it every day.
Zhan Mingzhao's mouth twitched: "If you are afraid of forgetting, you can call him Zhan Xuan'an, An'an, little An'an every day."
Gu Xiangyi shook her head: "Little bean buns are still the cutest."
Zhan Mingzhao: “…”
Zhanbo passed away with his dreams in his heart. Now all he cares about is his eldest grandson who has a bright future. His eldest grandson is extraordinary and will definitely become a famous figure in the future.
Zhu Jiaorong bit her lip and wondered how it was possible for Zhan Mingzhao and his wife to raise a son who would become a great man.
Let's wait and see.
Not long after they left, Gu Ze'an and his wife came over. When they saw their little grandson, they fell silent, a silence that was indescribable. The couple didn't know what to say.
I was in a daze and didn't know what day it was.
Qin Ying scratched his head and said in surprise in the tone of Jia Baoyu in Dream of the Red Chamber: "Have I seen this child before?"
Gu Ze'an couldn't laugh anymore. "When I saw him, I thought of the past..."
Qin Ying slapped her thigh and said, "It's true that the nephew resembles his uncle!"
"He looks just like you when you were a kid. You haven't seen him yet, right? Let's get him to see him."
The eldest brother of the Gu family has not had the chance to meet his little nephew yet, and his road to chasing his wife is long.
Not long after Gu Xiangyi finished her confinement, news that the college entrance examination would be resumed spread like wildfire in private. Many people were saying that the college entrance examination would be resumed soon, but no clear news had been released from the top. However, various rumors emerged one after another, which concerned all the rural educated youth.
Zhan Mingzhao's heart was also in a knot. He was glad that his sister had guessed correctly that the college entrance examination would really be resumed, and that he had spent half a year reviewing for it. What he was afraid of was that the college entrance examination would be resumed only next year, and he, a poor student, would have to study hard for another year.
He really hates math!!!
Why would someone who studies foreign languages learn mathematics
In October, the newspapers officially announced the resumption of the college entrance examination. Newspapers sold like hot cakes, and many young people's hearts were burning with enthusiasm. A fierce trend of learning was ignited across the land.
The entrance of Xinhua Bookstore was crowded with people, all of whom were there to grab books and review materials. In addition to the educated youth students, there were also teachers queuing in front of the bookstore. Many elementary and middle school teachers also wanted to take the college entrance examination, and many of them would enter the examination room with their teachers.
Zhan Aiping cooperated with a publishing house she knew before to sell materials. She originally wanted to sell them alone, but found it troublesome, so she contacted the publishing house in advance and sent the wax plates of the college entrance examination review materials she had prepared to the publishing house.
The sales channels for selling by myself are too limited, how much can I sell? If I cooperate with the publishing house, the publishing house will have exchanges with major Xinhua bookstores, and the sales volume will be even greater.
Because of the publication of the book "Science Stories", Zhan Aiping has been in contact with the publishing house. The publishing house was very happy when it received Zhan Aiping's materials and worked overtime to mimeograph the materials. They have channels and the cost is lower.
Every day, a new batch of wax-plate review materials arrived at Xinhua Bookstores across the country and were immediately snatched up. Everyone was afraid that they would not be able to buy them.
There are all kinds of wax-engraved review materials on the market, and there are also many that are middle school teachers' lecture notes. Zhan Aiping bought a few and flipped through them, and felt that her own college entrance examination review materials were the most essential.
Of course, she kept the most essential parts and only sold the ordinary version for the general public. This set is simple and suitable for ordinary people.
Many people have been away from school for too long and have a poor foundation, so even if they want to review, they don’t know where to start. However, Zhan Aiping’s material is a beacon of hope.
The news about the college entrance examination will be announced in October, and there is only less than two months left for review in December, which is very tight.
Zhan Mingzhao signed up, and Gu Xiangyi also signed up. Gu Xiangyi guessed, "I should be a runner-up. I'll go to the examination hall to try this year. I'll take a year or two off from work to review and then take the exam next year or the year after next."
Zhan Mingzhao clenched his fist and then unclenched it: "... Don't be too confident in me. Are you and my sister so sure that I can pass the exam?"
Gu Xiangyi said: "He will definitely pass the exam, Xiaodoubao's father."
"It doesn't matter if you don't pass the exam. Let's study for another year and you can take the exam with me!"
Zhan Mingzhao: “…”
No, he doesn't want to study math anymore!
In the last two months, Zhan Mingzhao worked hard to study in order to no longer need to learn mathematics!
