The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 169: The Yang Familyโs Little Treasure
In the Yang family, only Grandpa Yang felt a fleeting disappointment in his heart, but it quickly passed, and he didnโt show any negative emotions on his face. ๐ณ๐ฟ๐๐๐๐ฒ๐๐ป๐๐๐๐ฅ.๐๐ ๐
After all, the Yang Family did not lack grandsons, but this chubby girl was the only female child in three generations of the Yang Family.
No one at home could resist her charm; everyone held her and wouldnโt let go, filled with joy.
If Grandpa Yang felt a tinge of disappointment, it was simply because he thought he was getting old and wanted to see a great-grandson from Yang Zhigangโs line to carry on the family bloodline before he passed away.
After all, both his younger brothers already had sons. But then he thought about how soon after the eldest granddaughter-in-law got married, she became pregnant, so perhaps a great-grandson would soon arrive anyway, and he was comforted by that thought. He also liked the idea of a great-granddaughter, and being the only female child in the family made her precious...
Liu Yulan received a letter from Wang Miaomiao and couldnโt wait to open it, wondering what her daughter might have to say.
Just a few days ago, she had received a letter enclosing five yuan. Her daughter mentioned in the letter that it was pocket money for her parents and that they shouldnโt hesitate to spend it. Liu Yulan felt bittersweet and couldnโt help but worry about her daughterโs life over there, even though her letter was filled with good news.
In contrast, her sonโs letters were full of complaints about the hardships of training, how exhausted he was that he could fall asleep wherever he lay down... She thought how could there be such a difference in the same military training. Surely her daughter hadnโt told the truth. Alas... her daughter was just too thoughtful.
"Old man, old man, our daughter has made a military achievement! Wuu..." Liu Yulan cried as she read the letter.
Wang Baoxing was stunned, "What happened? Werenโt you just fine a moment ago..."
"Our daughter has made a military achievement..." Liu Yulan said, tears streaming down her face.
"Isnโt this a good thing, why are you crying?" Wang Baoxing was so anxious that he clumsily wiped her tears.
His rough hands scraped her face, causing Liu Yulan to push his large hands away in annoyance, "What do you know? For a girl to achieve something like this, itโs so dangerous, who knows if she got hurt... wuwu..."
As she spoke, thinking of her daughterโs habit of hiding things if anything happened, Liu Yulan felt like crying even more.
Convinced, Wang Baoxing also began to worry, "Then, what should we do now? What kind of achievement is it, does the letter say?"
"Third-class merit, it says she helped catch some bad people trafficking women and children." Liu Yulan cried for a while, then gradually collected her tears, already making plans in her heart, "Old man, letโs go find Gangzi."
Seeing her looking so determined, as if ready to leave immediately, Wang Baoxing was confused since they had to go to work soon, "Why find Gangzi, isnโt he not at work today?"
Wang Pandi had given birth, and Yang Zhigang had mentioned he was taking a day off to be with her.
"Oh right..." Liu Yulan regretfully patted her head, "Then weโll go after work."
"Why do you want to find him?" Although his wife would wait, Wang Baoxing still didnโt understand what she wanted to do.
Liu Yulan gave him a sideways glance, showing her disdain, "Naturally, to have him reach out to Xiao Jiang, let Xiao Jiang go see Miao Miao, so she wonโt suffer alone and feel uncared for. How sad would that be for her? We donโt have connections, we can only ask Xiao Jiang to take care of her more."
Wang Baoxing nodded in a daze, feeling an indescribable sense of unease in his heart, but couldnโt figure out why.
After work, Liu Yulan and Wang Baoxing headed straight for Yangliu Village. Wang Pandi was staying there for her postpartum period.
"Waa, waa, waa..."
As soon as they got to the door, they heard the cries of a little baby inside the house. Liu Yulan jumped out of the car and ran inside, "Oh dear, my good child, why are you crying..."
Yang Qingwen, nicknamed Guai Guai. Unfortunately, she didnโt look well-behaved at all.
"Mom, youโre here..." Yang Zhigang was busy trying to change his baby daughterโs diaper. The little girl was crying, and his eyebrows were knitted together.
"Whatโs going on? So clumsy. Move aside, let me do it." Liu Yulan pushed him aside, quickly and skillfully fixed the diaper, and lifted the child up gently to soothe her.
"Hmph... hmph..." Little Yang Qingwen whimpered a few times, then quieted down and stopped crying.
Yang Zhigang breathed a sigh of relief and complimented Liu Yulan, "Mom, youโre really good at this."
"Hehe... itโs because my little Guai Guai likes her grandma and is giving me face." Liu Yulan was very pleased.
As people age, their attitudes towards children change significantly. Perhaps this is what is meant by the saying about the close bond between grandparent and grandchild.
Hearing this, Yang Zhigang could only give a wry smile. Inside, he felt discomfort. Could it be that his daughter didnโt like him and wasnโt giving him face? He wouldnโt admit to that.
Meanwhile, Wang Pandi was lying in bed watching them with a smile. When her husband wanted to help, she naturally had to let him.
Her younger sister had said that whenever a man wants to help, she should let him; when he doesnโt want to, she must trick or call him into doing more work. If a man buys you something, you should happily accept it. Let him develop the habit of taking over everything himself, believing heโs the only one who can. Refuse him once or twice, and there wonโt be a next time.
"Oh, the in-laws are here..." Fang Ci came in with a bowl of rinsed rice and vegetables and saw Wang Baoxing standing at the door, peeking inside to see the baby in Liu Yulanโs arms, and smiled, "Guai Guai is awake? This child is really good..."
Liu Yulan saw Wang Baoxing looking eagerly, nodded to Fang Ci, and said while walking, "Yes, my little Guai Guai is really good, come on, letโs also show her to grandpa."
Wang Baoxing, full of anticipation, saw the baby for the first time. Watching the small pink little one with closed eyes, so cute and well-behaved, he was filled with joy.
The newborn slept a lot, and soon drifted back to sleep. Liu Yulan brought the child inside to rest with Wang Pandi.
Came out to see Yang Zhigang enthusiastically serving tea to Wang Baoxing, she felt pleased, this son-in-law was really a good choice.
"Gangzi, I have something to discuss with you, sit down, no need to fuss, we can help ourselves." Liu Yulan sat down and patted the chair next to her.
"Alright." Yang Zhigang smiled and didnโt refute, but continued doing what he was doing.
Liu Yulan took out Wang Miaomiaoโs letter and handed it to him, "Take a look, a letter from Miao Miao."
Yang Zhigang was puzzled, a letter from his sister-in-law was given to him, whatโs the matter?
Skimming quickly, after reading the letter, he couldnโt help but smile, "Miao Miao is quite something, joining the military this short time and already earning a third-class merit, thatโs impressive."
Upon hearing the praise for their daughter, both Wang Baoxing and Liu Yulan felt a surge of pride, their postures straightening a bit.
"Yes, sheโs much better than her brother." Liu Yulan laughed.
Here, letโs take a moment of silence for Wang Jia Bao, how pitiful...
Alas, there really is no injury without comparison.
