Chapter 65 Chen Cuijuan Arrives

Chen Cui Juan wasn’t tall, she was thin from years of farm work. She looked like she could be blown over by a gust of wind, but she was carrying a snakeskin bag bigger than herself. Standing at the door, she looked around curiously. She had just said Yu Yu and Gu Ye’s names, and the person asked her what she was to Chief Gu. After Chen Cui Juan told him, the young man told her to wait there for a while. Chen Cui Juan was still reminiscing about it. Chief Gu.

My goodness, Chief, it sounded so imposing. And the person standing guard at the door was not only wearing a military uniform, but he was also holding a black long thing. Chen Cui Juan, who was usually very imposing in the village, didn’t dare to speak much, or even look, she waited anxiously, her eyes constantly looking inside. When she met the guard’s eyes, she immediately cowered and shrank her neck. It was so intimidating!

What if she had come to the wrong place? But this should be it. She had come according to the address her daughter wrote in her letter. But she was in a strange place, and Chen Cui Juan still had no idea. Just as she was thinking about asking the police for help if she had come to the wrong place, she saw the young man from before and another tall man walking out.

“Mom?” Seeing Chen Cui Juan in the garrison, Gu Ye felt like he was dreaming, there was a strong sense of unreality. When Chen Cui Juan saw Gu Ye, she called out to him, her dark face immediately bloomed like a chrysanthemum, “Oh, son-in-law!” “Hurry up, Mom thought she had come to the wrong place!” Chen Cui Juan had a loud voice, and her voice went up at the end of her sentences, it sounded particularly energetic, even the people around her were infected by her emotions, and they inexplicably became happy. Gu Ye smiled, the guard greeted her, and then took Chen Cui Juan to register. After registering, Gu Ye took the snakeskin bag from Chen Cui Juan’s hand. He thought that it shouldn’t be very heavy since she had brought it from home.

Who knew, he almost couldn’t lift it! “Mom, why did you suddenly come over, you didn’t say anything beforehand, I could have gone to the station to pick you up.” “Well, what’s the point of saying anything beforehand, when I heard that Yu Yu was having twins, I felt uneasy and couldn’t sleep at night, so I just got Guo Wang to take me to the train station the next day, bought a ticket and came over.” Gu Ye was silent for a moment. His mother-in-law was still so wild.

 Just an address, and she actually came here on her own, she was a tough one. But at the same time, he was more touched, his mother-in-law might be wild, but she was really good to Yuzo. “Is Yuzo okay?” Gu Ye nodded, “She’s fine.” Chen Cui Juan was waiting for him to say how good her daughter was, but he didn’t continue. Forget it, this son-in-law of hers, you couldn’t get three words out of him even if you beat him with a stick. She had to see it with her own eyes to feel at ease. Everyone was back at this time, the family compound was very lively.

People were coming and going, and when they saw Gu Ye leading a woman in her forties or fifties from the countryside, they smiled and asked if she was an elder from his family. Shen Zhiyu’s belly had been getting bigger day by day like a balloon these days, it was obvious that she was about to give birth. It was normal for elders to come and take care of her at this time.

They asked and found out that this was Shen Zhiyu’s mother, Gu Ye’s mother-in-law. They greeted Chen Cui Juan enthusiastically, “Auntie, if you need any help, just ask, we’re all family.” Chen Cui Juan was quite restrained when she first arrived. But what kind of person was she, she was very outgoing. It had only been ten minutes, and she was already so warm, she even made an appointment with them to go shopping for groceries together the next day!

Gu Ye was dumbfounded. He silently tightened his grip on the snakeskin bag in his hand. He had a feeling that the house would be very lively for a while. They hadn’t even reached the front door when they saw Shen Zhiyu standing at the intersection, her big belly sticking out. She had been waiting anxiously at home, so she had come out slowly and stood at the intersection looking around. When she saw Chen Cui Juan, she immediately waved her hand, called out “Mom,” and then her eyes welled up. “Oh, my daughter!” Chen Cui Juan was so excited. She was so amazing, she had found the right place on her own, she was so proud. Seeing Shen Zhiyu crying, she said angrily, “What are you crying for, Mom is here now, what are you crying for, go back and rest.”

“You’re happy to see Mom, right? Mom knew you missed Mom, so I came over right away.” Shen Zhiyu sniffed, hugged Chen Cui Juan’s arm tightly and walked inside, talking to Chen Cui Juan as they walked. She talked about her first pregnancy experience, and some of her psychological journey.

As for Gu Ye, who was carrying the luggage behind them, they both forgot about him. Gu Ye looked at his wife’s back, who didn’t even turn her head, “…….” “Mom, have you eaten?”

 “I have, I brought some steamed buns, I finished them all, hehe, Mom also brought you some pickled vegetables, I ate a few bites on the way because my mouth was tasteless, it was so delicious, the boxed meals on the train weren’t as delicious as Mom’s pickled vegetables.” She had been eating steamed buns all the way here. Shen Zhiyu frowned with concern; she looked at Gu Ye.

 Before she could speak, Gu Ye knew what his wife was thinking, he put the things aside carefully and said, “I’ll go make noodles.” “What noodles, Mom isn’t hungry, Mom is here to take care of you, don’t do this.” Chen Cui Juan said as she looked around their house. On the way here, Chen Cui Juan had noticed that the houses here were almost all built. Even the courtyard walls were so straight.

Seeing the two chickens in the yard, Chen Cui Juan was relieved. It seemed that her daughter knew how to live. A pregnant woman needed to eat well. Raising chickens was so good. There would be eggs to eat, and if she craved chicken, she could have a mother-and-child set meal. The yard was clean and tidy, they had electricity here, and the house was lit up by electric lights, it was very bright. Although there wasn’t much furniture, it was clean and tidy, it was obvious that she had put a lot of effort into it. Chen Cui Juan felt relieved, and she started to look at her daughter carefully.

“Oh!” Chen Cui Juan exclaimed, Shen Zhiyu’s eyelids twitched, she felt a little awkward, “What’s wrong, Mom?” “Daughter, you look…….like an intellectual from a wealthy family!” When she came here just now, someone asked her if she was Teacher Shen’s mother. Thinking of Teacher Shen’s family, Chen Cui Juan felt happy in her heart. She had gotten used to hearing everyone call her Teacher Shen, but hearing Chen Cui Juan call her Teacher Shen now, Shen Zhiyu felt a little awkward. “Mom!” Shen Zhiyu was a little embarrassed, but after she was embarrassed, she wanted to look in the mirror, she also felt that she seemed to have become prettier.

 “Hahaha, Mom is complimenting you, come, Mom will have a good look at you.” “Tsk, your face is so rosy, how are you getting prettier and prettier?” “And this belly, oh, it’s growing so well, it’s round and plump, it’s obviously very lucky!” Chen Cui Juan said, she deliberately touched her daughter’s hand. Seeing that her daughter’s hands were still soft, she knew that she hadn’t done much work, and she completely felt relieved.

Shen Zhiyu was flattered by Chen Cui Juan, she was so happy. She was still a little unsatisfied, she was about to pull Chen Cui Juan into the room, so her mother could have a good look. Who knew, Gu Ye was too fast, the noodles were already cooked. Carrying the noodles out, Gu Ye said, “Mom, you eat some first, Yuzo and I have already eaten.” The spices here were especially fragrant, she didn’t know what they put in it, Chen Cui Juan couldn’t help but swallow. She looked up and said, “My goodness, you even put meat in it!” “This is cured meat, smoked cured meat, Yuzo loves to eat it.” It was white flour and cured meat, and there was an egg in it, and there were oil droplets floating on the noodle soup, Chen Cui Juan felt embarrassed, “I don’t need to eat so well, just a simple bite will do.” When Shen Zhiyu heard this, she was unhappy. She was about to speak, but then she saw her own mother’s eyes almost glued to the noodles. She changed her mind, “Then forget it.”

Chen Cui Juan: “??? You’ve already cooked it, what are you doing!” Seeing her daughter about to take the noodles away, Chen Cui Juan immediately became anxious, she obediently went to the table and sat down. She carefully took a sip of the soup, her eyes narrowed in delight, “My goodness, it’s so delicious, Xiao Gu, don’t stand there, I brought a whole bag of things for you, take it out quickly.”

A whole bag, all for them? Shen Zhiyu and Gu Ye widened their eyes in unison, “Mom, what did you bring?”
