Chapter 238 Gu Jingcheng knows how to persuade people

Author: Zhong Lin

This was the first time that Gu Jingcheng heard someone say that he spent money on studying. He couldn't help but tilted his head to look at Su Xiaomu, and said with an interesting smile: "If you want to know, I can't tell you. Why don't you just call me Jing like your parents?"

How is the city?"

"Why do I call you that?" Su Xiaomu thought Gu Jingcheng's request was a bit strange. She thought he would bargain with her, but she didn't expect it to be such a simple request. "It's not like I haven't called you that before."

"I mean you'll call me Jingcheng from now on." Gu Jingcheng stretched out his hand to fix the broken hair on her forehead, with an extremely gentle look on her face, "If you call me like this, I can tell you what you want to say."

"It's just a title, just call it."

Su Xiaomu didn't care: "Jingcheng, tell me what you said to your sister?"

Hearing her title, even though it was just two words that he was already used to hearing, Gu Jingcheng still couldn't help but curl his lips.

The joy in his heart nearly burst out of his chest, and he told her what he had said to Gu Shui today word for word.

"As a mother, you are strong. Even if she doesn't think about herself, she still has to think about her three children. The three girls are getting older, but one is thinner than the other. They don't look like healthy children at all, especially the three girls.

Girl, that day I went to the mountain to chop firewood and fell down a hillside and injured my leg, but I was surprisingly sensible and didn’t dare to tell us. If my second sister-in-law hadn’t changed her clothes and noticed something was wrong, we might not have known about it until my leg was broken.”

Although Gu Jingcheng had not seen Sanmei's injury with his own eyes because of the protection between men and women, he had heard from his elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law that if the wound was more serious, the little girl's legs would not be saved.

"Is it so serious?" Su Xiaomu was surprised, "I stare at her every day, but I never noticed anything happened to her leg? I thought it was because she was young and could not walk steadily."

Although Su Xiaomu likes children, she doesn't understand them very well.

She takes care of them, but most of the time she watches and plays with several children.

Damei, Ermei and Sanmei were a little shyer than the children of the Gu family, so she just assumed that they were not familiar with each other yet and didn't think much about it.

"You don't have to worry too much. My sister-in-law has already found someone to take care of the children. From now on, she will prepare tonics for them to drink every day. She just wants to spend the shortest time to make their bodies get better as soon as possible."

Gu Jingcheng saw that Su Xiaomu felt guilty and excused her. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with her. It was the Zhou family who did the wrong thing, and the Gu family was the one who was wronged.

——

Gu Shui took her three children to live at Gu's house.

She was weak and should have rested in bed every day. She could only get out of bed and walk around when she felt tired.

It's winter again now, and she can't go out to enjoy the cold wind no matter what.

In order to take care of her health, Mrs. Yin and Mrs. Chen made her a tonic soup every day, changing the portions given to her. Mother and daughter drank it every day, and Su Xiaomu also benefited from it. She drank it every day and was very happy.

Gu Shui stayed at home like this, maybe because the Gu family was so good to her, and she felt a little bit guilty after feeling the long-lost family affection, so she forced herself to help with the household chores.

God knows how weak her body is, but after working for a while, her face turned pale and she looked like she fainted immediately.

What Li is most afraid of now is seeing Gu Shui looking like he is dying. When she goes to bed at night, every time she closes her eyes, she will think of Gu Shui lying in her arms covered in blood.

That was simply too terrifying and unbearable.

How could such a good girl lead her life to this point?

"Didn't I tell you to lie down in bed? Not only is it not good for your body, but it is causing us more trouble. You are a little girl, how can you do so in front of so many people?

How much work can you help with?"

Mrs. Li was really angry and wanted to just pull her to the bed to rest with a straight face.

But the doctor also said that the most important thing for her now is to maintain a good mood and not to strain her mind because of a bad mood.

Li Shi endured her anger, carefully helped Gu Shui to lie down on the bed, and talked to her very patiently.

"If you are bored by yourself, ask your children to talk to you. Children in our family usually don't have much to do. Your nieces and nephews can also be called to your bedside."

Mrs. Li had arranged everything for Gu Shui: "You can read books if you want. Your third brother has them all the time. If you want anything to eat or play, just tell your two sisters-in-law. They go to the city to do it every day."

I can bring you business along the way."

The better the Li family and the Gu family treated Gu Shui, the more uncomfortable she felt, feeling that she was not worthy of their kindness.

"I have done so many things that I have done to my family. I have brought shame to my father and mother, and my third brother's reputation has almost been damaged. I didn't expect that you would be so kind to me. I have already done it myself."

Be prepared to fend for yourself."

Gu Shui had no child, and she originally thought there was no hope in her life.

But her parents were kind to her and thought of her no matter what.

The third brother also came to comfort her. Everyone hoped that she would live well and were thinking about her.

The tears kept rolling down from her eyes uncontrollably. The sadder she cried, the sadder Li became.

He quickly wiped away the tears on Gu Shui's face with a handkerchief: "You are still in confinement, so don't dare to cry, otherwise it will be bad for your eyes in the future. Mom doesn't ask you for anything now, just hope

You can take good care of your body."

Mrs. Li comforted Gu Shui for a long time. When she came out of Gu Shui's room, her eyes were as swollen as walnuts. It was obvious that she had been crying for a long time.

Su Xiaomu became more and more curious about Gu Shui.

Not only because she was Mr. Li's favorite, but also because she was curious about what was going on in her heart, Su Xiaomu took the initiative to take over the job of cooking soup for her from her second sister-in-law in the evening and went to talk to Gu Shui.

This was the first time Su Xiaomu saw Gu Shui since the Zhou family came back last time.

She is now lying on the bedside sickly, with no color on her face. The tonic soup she drank for several days seems to be of no use to her. She should have no strength, but she still has no strength.

"Today I stewed pig's trotters soup for you. My second sister-in-law put a lot of soybeans in it. The stew is soft but not chewy. How do you think it tastes?"

Su Xiaomu brought the pig's trotter soup in front of her. The dishes and chopsticks were all arranged, but she just had to feed it to Gu Shui directly.

"Hello, Third Sister-in-law. It's been a long time since I've been back, and this is the first time that Third Sister-in-law has come to give me something."
