Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

There was harmony in the Gu Manor. Even Fifth Brother, who had social phobia all along, also felt the relaxed and happy mood in the family. They were extremely happy. Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua were both talkative. One person could liven up the atmosphere, not to mention that there were two of them.

In the Gu Family, all the brothers were quiet except for Fourth Brother. Gu Chun looked at Fang Hongxiu happily. Fang Hongxiu still could not talk so nimbly. Shen Qianshu’s and Tong Hua’s liveliness filled the atmosphere throughout.

Shen Qianshu let Fang Hongxiu see her own design works.

“Mom, I’m a jewelry designer. I have designed all these. Are they nice?”

Fang Hongxiu nodded. “Nice.”

Shen Qianshu was extremely happy. “Wait until I’m done with this case. When I have the time, I’ll design jewelry for Mom and dress Mom up prettily.”

“Don’t, don’t. Hand to me the matter of pleasing your Mom. You don’t have to interfere,” Gu Chun said hurriedly. “I’ve bought a lot of jewelry that she likes. However, your Mom seldom wears them.”

“I’ll wear them, I’ll wear them!” Fang Hongxiu explained hurriedly. Everyone laughed. She held Qianshu’s hand. She liked her a lot and had been smiling. No one mentioned the matter regarding the Black Rose.

Shen Qianshu’s cell phone rang. Ye Ling had called her.

It was already evening.

Ye Ling asked, “When are you coming back?”

“Master, Tong Hua and I will stay at the Gu Manor today, alright?” Shen Qianshu asked softly. “Mom has just woken up. She especially wishes to be with me. We have such a long time in the future. I’ll accompany her more, alright?”

Ye Ling fell silent.

We have such a long time in the future.

Is that so?

“Master, I assure you that I’ll come back after eating lunch tomorrow.”

“Alright!” Ye Ling hung up the phone.

Tong Hua was performing a program for Fang Hongxiu. He was playing the piano, and he played especially well. He made Fang Hongxiu laugh continuously. When Fang Hongxiu woke up, everything had a happy ending.

“Little Shu… is married. Where’s her husband?” Fang Hongxiu asked.

“…” Everyone was dumbstruck.

This was a good question.

No one dared to say the truth about how Shen Qianshu was still not married but still had a son. Would Fang Hongxiu, who had just woken up, get agitated? Instead, it was Shen Qianshu who was magnanimous. “Mom, I am not pro-marriage. Hence, I did not get married. The child’s daddy has also been pampering me. If I want to get married, it can be done immediately.”

Tong Hua said, “… Boastful.”

Shen Qianshu kicked him so that he would not give it away.

Fang Hongxiu did not get agitated. The brothers of the Gu Family had also thought too much. When Fang Hongxiu was young, she was the gatekeeper of the Black Rose. She had passed the psychological aspect. There was nothing that she had never experienced before. During the early half of her life, she had braved through great winds and high waves. She was not surprised at all.

“Does he treat you well?”

“Very well!” Shen Qianshu said. “No one has treated me better than him.”

“Biased, it’s obvious that I treat you the best!” Tong Hua was not happy. “Daddy has never cooked you a meal.”

“Alright, alright, alright. You treat me the best.”

A few of them laughed with good intentions.

Fang Hongxiu had been sleeping and resting in the day. She was still rather alert at night. Shen Qianshu accompanied her and chatted with her in the courtyard. She had a doubt in her heart that she had always kept hidden in her heart. “Mom, are you and Aventura… very good friends?”

Fang Hongxiu was startled. It was something that happened more than 20 years ago. To Shen Qianshu, it was very far away. However, to her, it seemed like it happened just yesterday.

“How do you know Aventura?”

Shen Qianshu smiled slightly. She was a little embarrassed as she scratched her head. “Dad didn’t tell you all along who Tong Hua’s grandma was?”
