Gu's mother didn't show any politeness. She followed Tang Guoer directly into the door.
Tang Guo'er is very nervous to see her mother-in-law. Although it is not the first time to meet, after all, the frequency of meeting is small. In addition, Gu Yebai's father-in-law is a little restrained.
Even though she knew that Mrs. Gu's people were very good and had no prejudice against her, they were still very nervous. They were too busy to wait for Mrs. Gu to sit down while serving tea and water and cutting fruits.
All of this mother Gu saw in the eyes, ”Guo Er, don't be busy, sit down.”
”It's OK. I'm not busy. I'll come when I cut the fruit.”
Mother Gu didn't say much. She sat on the sofa with a teacup in her hand, waiting for tangguoer to cut the mango and bring up the fruit platter. ”That, auntie, you eat fruit.”
Mother Gu pointed to the position beside her, ”you sit first.”
”Oh, yes.”
Tangguo'er sat uneasily beside her mother, stuttering and not knowing what to say. ”That, auntie, I heard Gu Xiaobai say before that you are not in good health. I, I am very worried.”
Gu's mother said softly, ”a few days ago, it was a little uncomfortable, but now it's OK. Guo'er, thank you for caring about your aunt.”
”Auntie feels very happy, really.”
While speaking, she took tangguoer's hand and nestled in the palm.
The action is very gentle, the distance between two people seems to be closer at this time, a step closer.
But Tang Guo'er felt guilty, ”Auntie, don't say that. I should have come to see you. As a daughter-in-law, when her mother-in-law is not feeling well, she can't stay by the side. It's really bad.”
Mother Gu patted her on the back of her hand twice and comforted her, ”it's not your fault. It's the old man who is too stubborn. Guo'er, you've been wronged these years.”
”You don't blame your uncle and aunt, do you?”
Tang Guo'er wants to control herself and says to Gu's mother, it's OK. She doesn't care, but she can't control her tears.
