Seventy: After going to the countryside, I became the boss's favorite

Gu Jiamo slept soundly all night until dawn, and was awakened by the smell of food.

When he woke up and found Xuan'er at home, he sat by the stove. When he saw Gu Jiamo woke up, he hurried over. However, he must have been told by Liu Yueying that Gu Jiamo was pregnant, so he didn't hug her like before.

"Sister-in-law, come and have some soup. Mom said that being pregnant is very hard."

Xuan'er is still young and may not be able to empathize with her mother, but she understands her mother's hard work.

"Where's mother?"

"Mother went to buy cloth, saying she wanted to make clothes for my nephews and nieces. Sister-in-law, am I really going to be an aunt?"

The little girl is about to graduate from elementary school now. Other people have younger brothers and sisters, but there is a big age gap between her and Shen Yusheng. Some have nephews and nieces, which makes her feel that she is already a little adult.

"Sister-in-law, I won't spend the pocket money my mother gives me anymore. I'll save it all for the baby in my belly, okay?"

The little girl stared at Gu Jiamo with her grape-like eyes, making her heart soften.

"Don't worry, your sister-in-law and your brother are rich, and your nephews and nieces won't starve. Just spend Xuan'er's money. When Xuan'er grows up, it won't be too late to spend money on your nephews and nieces."

Shen Yusheng just came back from outside, and when he heard their conversation, he couldn't help but smile.

Gu Jiamo was a little surprised to see him: "Why aren't you busy?"

"I won't be going these two days. I've already made an agreement with the people. I'll go back to work after Dad takes your pulse and makes sure you're fine."

Otherwise, even if you are physically outside but your heart is at home, you cannot be efficient in doing things.

In that case, it would be better to just stay at home and accompany Gu Jiamo peacefully.

Gu Jiamo could obviously guess what he was thinking. She said nothing and just nodded quietly.

The soup cooked in the morning was chicken soup. Gu Jiamo knew it was her mother's cooking just by smelling it.

Most of the time it was delivered to the pharmacy and Liu Yueying had kept it on the stove, so it was still boiling hot when it went into her stomach.

After finishing a bowl, Gu Jiamo broke out in sweat.

Coincidentally, Liu Yueying came back from outside with a satisfied smile on her face, obviously having bought what she liked.

"Mom, what did you buy that makes you so happy?"

"Nothing much, just some cloth. The department store will deliver it this afternoon. You can pick some then."

At the beginning, Gu Jiamo was wondering why she had to pick out the cloth herself.

When her colleague who was delivering the goods to the department store arrived, she finally understood what Liu Yueying meant by "a little bit".

It is indeed a billion points...

"Mom, this is too..." It's too much.

Before Gu Jiamo could speak, Liu Yueying took the initiative to take over the conversation: "Yes, there are not enough things. They haven't arrived yet. We need to bring two more trucks."

Gu Jiamo: ???

"Mom, this is a lot."

If there are forty pieces of cloth in one cart, wouldn't three carts mean one hundred and twenty pieces?

That's a bit too much.

Liu Yueying listened to her words, figured out what she meant, and said with a smile: "That's all the cloth I have. I also bought some other things."

The department store had less than a hundred different pieces of cloth in total, so she couldn't buy anything even if she wanted to.

Liu Yueying made a special explanation because she was afraid that Gu Jiamo would think she was wasteful.

"I bought them not just for the baby. Now that you're pregnant, your clothes will have to be made looser and different every month. I bought them in advance too. Don't worry, even when it's time to give birth, I'll make you look pretty."

Liu Yueying's enthusiasm for making clothes is unprecedentedly high now. If time permits, she would like to start right now.

Gu Jiamo felt that since she was pregnant, the people around her seemed to have changed their personalities.

In the afternoon, Aunt Wang from the alley came to the house and asked Gu Jiamo to answer the phone.

At the beginning, Gu Jiamo was a little puzzled, but then she heard Gu Anran's smiling voice coming from the other side.

"safely?"

"congratulations."

"How come even you know about this?"

Gu Jiamo didn't need to guess, she knew who did it!

This Shen Yusheng!

"Why is he like a big colander!"

"He is so happy. I am planning to come back soon and will bring a gift for my little niece."

The two didn't say much. Gu Anran talked about the day she would probably return home and then hung up the phone.

Shen Yusheng just came out to look for her. When she glared at him, he couldn't help but scratch his head guiltily.

"When did you tell An Ran, and who else did you tell?"

"I didn't tell her. When I went to tell grandpa, they were talking on the phone. Really!"

After listening to his explanation, Gu Jiamo's expression finally improved a little.

"An Ran said she would come back next month."

"I know. Grandpa said that the Tan family in Beijing sent a message that they want to cooperate with An Ran in depth."

It seems that the last cooperation between the two parties was quite pleasant. In addition, knowing the relationship between Gu Anran and Mr. Chen, I made a special call to the old man, which can be regarded as a good deal.

Gu Jiamo nodded. From a business perspective, there was nothing wrong with the Tan family trying to maximize their profits.

"What did grandpa say?"

Normally, the old man wouldn't get involved in such matters, so Gu Jiamo was afraid that the old man would be embarrassed and couldn't help but want to hear what the old man had to say.

"Grandpa said that the Tan family is a decent family, and he and An Ran's relationship is not afraid of being investigated. The two of them do business honestly, so it has no impact on him."

"That's good."

The two were talking as they walked home, when they happened to meet Gu Jiaxiang and couldn't help but stop.

"Why are you here at this hour?"

"Well, mother prepared this for you. Take it. I have to go back to the shop to watch over it."

Shen Yusheng took it for her, and Gu Jiaxiang rode away on his bicycle.

Gu Jiamo opened it and saw that it was a small mattress, and was a little puzzled.

"It's summer time, why did Second Aunt send me a quilt?"

"Silly girl, that's a patchwork quilt. It must have been used by Xiao Rui when he was a child. I'm using it to bring you good luck."

Gu Jiamo didn't know about this rule yet, so she nodded ignorantly.

Chen Xiufang took the small mattress, thinking that she would use it as a swaddle for her child when she got back.

"Mom, why are you back at this time?"

"I'll go back and cook some food. I'll make it in advance. Your sister-in-law will also be home for dinner today."

Jiang Wei used to eat lunch at the newspaper office, but when she heard that Gu Jiamo was pregnant, she changed her mind and went home to eat.

Anyway, my home is not far from the newspaper office, so it’s just a waste of time at most.

Gu Jiamo couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"My current salary is too high. Aren't you afraid of spoiling me?"

It was rare that she was in a good mood, and Chen Xiufang was happy to chat with her.

The mother and daughter talked and laughed as they walked home. Shen Yusheng couldn't get a word in. After all, there were some things they said that he couldn't understand. He could only follow behind them obediently, but he didn't feel impatient.

In the evening, Ma Xiangmei came over again, just in time for dinner, so she ate some with them.

Then, while no one was paying attention, he secretly stuffed a small cloth bag into Gu Jiamo's hand.

At first, Gu Jiamo didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just another small ceremony to bring some joy.

But when she returned home, opened the small cloth bag and saw the small golden lock inside, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

"Second Aunt is so generous this time?"
