Stay Home Daddy: I Was Reborn After My Daughter Passed Away-Chapter 76 - Seventy-six was almost too old to have a second

At that moment, her mind went blank.

Gu Chen reached Ji Pianran and extended his hand to help her up.

He never expected that Ji Pianran would lift her foot and aim right at his crotch.

That kick was not light.

Fortunately, Gu Chen reacted quickly and dodged at once.

He looked at Ji Pianran, bewildered, “Are you trying to murder your husband?”

Ji Pianran’s head buzzed.

Gu Chen?

Was it Gu Chen who had just scared her?

She breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and looked at Gu Chen with resentful, watery eyes, “Why scare me like that!”

Gu Chen looked at Ji Pianran, still shaken, and couldn’t help but find it amusing.

“I scared you? I yelled so loudly just now,” he said, and then added, “As for you, that kick was vicious. Luckily, I was quick enough to dodge, otherwise, forget about planning for a second child.”

At these words, Ji Pianran’s face turned red all at once.

This man!

What was he talking about!

Who wanted to have a second child with him?

Shameless!

“Don’t flatter yourself!”

Right now, Ji Pianran’s mind was filled with two words, “second child!”

The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. She quickly stuffed the clothes in her hands into Gu Chen’s arms and turned to run towards her house.

Gu Chen looked at the clothes in his hands, momentarily stunned, and then the corners of his mouth curved up into a knowing smile.

Turned out she was worried he might freeze and had brought him clothes.

His wife was really too adorable.

…

The next morning was New Year’s Day, and Gu Chen got up early to prepare some New Year’s goods to bring back. He would pass the coal washing plant on his way and planned to stop at the big store to buy some almond dew and other things.

Honestly, he had been prepared to give his mom a red envelope with two thousand yuan for the New Year.

But the other day, he had spent all his money on the TV.

Now, he was afraid he would have to ask Ji Pianran for it, and he didn’t know if she would feel the pinch having to give out so much money all at once.

Ji Pianran also got up very early today, as she was going to her in-laws’ house and definitely needed to freshen up. After washing up and tying her hair in a ponytail, she went to the kitchen to prepare some porridge.

As she lifted the curtain, she saw Gu Chen squatting on the ground packing up the New Year’s goods.

She walked over and brought out several boxes from behind the kitchen shelf, placing them in front of Gu Chen.

Gu Chen looked on curiously, and upon inspection, inside were sesame paste, walnut powder, milk, and even a pack of cigarettes.

Gu Chen was extremely surprised.

“This is…”

Ji Pianran smiled, “I bought these at the coal washing plant that morning I visited Li You’e’s house. It’s New Year’s; it wouldn’t be good to go back empty-handed.”

Gu Chen looked at these items and suddenly burst into laughter.

His wife, indeed, was very understanding.

To tell the truth, Gu Chen’s parents were, how should I put it, not very kind to Ji Pianran, quite indifferent in fact.

They knew Gu Chen worked in the city all year round, leaving his wife and mother to struggle at home by themselves, but they still never offered her any help.

They hadn’t even visited her once.

Not to mention saying anything comforting.

Others might have complained about how bad their mother-in-law was, but Ji Pianran, unexpectedly, did not mind at all.

She even bought so many things for his elderly parents.

He gave her a complex look and turned to Ji Pianran, saying, “Thank you.”

Thank you for repaying unkindness with kindness, for your magnanimity and tolerance.

In the past, it was always Ji Pianran who said thank you to Gu Chen.

Today, when she saw Gu Chen say it with such a sincere expression, she was somewhat at a loss.

After a while, she added, “Well, let’s bring an extra two thousand yuan when we leave, a thousand for each parent. Do you think that’s okay?”

Ji Pianran’s voice was soft and tender, with a hint of uncertainty.

She was afraid Gu Chen would disagree.

After all, Gu Chen held some dissatisfaction toward his family.

Gu Chen was moved by Ji Pianran’s generosity once again.

He rubbed his head, realizing he had indeed found a treasure.

How could he not have treasured such a wonderful wife before, throwing tantrums and almost ruining everything?

He nodded, “Alright, I’ll listen to you!”

Ji Pianran nodded in return, “Okay, then we’ll set off after breakfast. Tangtang will wake up soon. I’ll cook the porridge, and you prepare the formula.”

Gu Chen watched her with a smiling gaze, “Or how about I make breakfast and you prepare the formula?”

After all, he was a great chef and it would be a waste not to use his skills!

Such a good wife deserved at least a bowl of goji Matsutake Porridge, otherwise it wouldn’t be fair to her!

Ji Pianran didn’t think too much of it, knowing for a fact that Gu Chen cooked better than she did. She blinked, “That works too.”

Having said that, she turned around to prepare the formula for Tangtang.

After mixing the formula, Ji Pianran rushed toward her room.

She was getting ready to feed the little one and dress him up all nice and pretty.

After Ji Pianran left, Gu Chen entered the space.

In just one day, the previously thin and small Matsutake had noticeably grown bigger, plump and fresh.

Gu Chen watered all of his precious plants in the space before uprooting a few Matsutake mushrooms, picked a handful of fresh goji berries, and filled a basin with Spirit Spring Water before leaving.

The good stuff should always be given to his wife and child first!

Back from the space, Gu Chen quickly washed some rice and put it in the Spirit Spring Water he had fetched.

Then he added the goji berries and started cleaning the Matsutake mushrooms.

Once cleaned, he sliced all the Matsutake and put them in the pot.

Adding just a bit of oil and a thin slice of ginger to the pot.

The aroma instantly wafted out from the pot.

Indeed, as the king of mushrooms, not only does it fight against tumors and cancer, but what’s most important is the taste is second to none, even more delicious than meat.

Gu Chen took a few satisfied sniffs.

Then he covered the pot, sitting in anticipation of the delicious Matsutake Porridge to be ready.

Meanwhile, Ji Pianran was also busy. As soon as she entered the room, the little girl opened her eyes and sat up eagerly, “Mommy, when are we leaving?”

Gu Chen’s parents had only visited during childbirth, and since Tangtang had just been born then, she had no memory of her grandparents.

In their village, it’s common for the elderly to look after the children, so she couldn’t help but feel envious seeing others with their grandparents.

The thought of visiting her grandparents for the New Year had occupied her mind since the night before.

Ji Pianran, holding the freshly mixed formula, came over with a beaming smile, “Sweetie, be good, drink your milk, and after breakfast, we can hit the road!”
