Chapter 164 Gu Ruochu
Cheng Lang helped her tuck in the quilt and explained, "Chuchu was hungry at night, so I left her in the care of the wet nurse. Do you want to see her? I'll bring her over to you."
After he said that, he stood up and went to pick up the child.
Su Yuan shook her head. "Don't bring it over yet. I'm hungry! Let's have breakfast first."
Only then did Cheng Lang go out to arrange breakfast and personally brought it to Su Yuan.
Su Yuan drank two bowls of meat porridge and rested on the bed.
Cheng Lang sent the bowl out and then came back to accompany Su Yuan.
"I asked someone to go to the academy to tell Yu'er. Yu'er will probably be back later." Cheng Lang returned to Su Yuan and stayed with her.
Su Yuan nodded, and not long after, the wet nurse came in carrying Gu Ruchu.
Cheng Lang took the child and held him up to show Su Yuan.
Su Yuan glanced at her sleeping daughter and couldn't help but smile.
Cheng Lang looked at Su Yuan gently. He leaned on the other side of the bed, leaning against the couch, not knowing what he was thinking.
Su Yuan looked up at him, meeting his affectionate eyes, then she lowered her head and continued to look at her daughter.
Is there anything in this world that can make you happier than having your dreams come true?
"Do you like your daughter so much? If Yu'er saw it, he would be jealous." Cheng Lang put his hands behind his head and reminded Su Yuan.
Su Yuan dotes on her daughter too much and is afraid that Gu Yu will think too much.
After all, they have the same mother but different fathers, and Gu Yu is sensitive, so he has to remind Su Yuan.
Su Yuan's smile froze for a moment, but she didn't think too much about it.
But what Cheng Liang said made sense. She really needed to be more restrained to avoid causing Gu Yu to misunderstand her.
She dotes on her daughter and will not ignore Gu Yu.
"I will be sensible."
They sat in the room for a while, and then Gu Yu came back.
As soon as he heard that his mother had given birth to a younger sister last night, he rushed back immediately.
He started running from the gate of the mansion and was panting when he entered the house.
"Mom! Why didn't you send someone to tell me earlier? I should have been with you and my sister last night." Gu Yu complained as he walked in.
His mother gave birth last night and didn't send anyone to tell him, so he only found out the news today!
"Don't you want to worry, mom? Come here and see your sister." Su Yuan coaxed him with a smile.
Gu Yu immediately stopped caring about other things and walked over to see his sister.
Looking at the cute little baby in Su Yuan's arms, Gu Yu couldn't help but want to touch her little face.
But when he thought about how exhausted he was from the long journey back, he immediately put his hand down.
"Mom, I'll go back to the room and change my clothes before coming over." After saying this, Gu Yu turned and left.
Su Yuan and Cheng Lang looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
It seems that brother Gu Yu loves his sister even more than they do.
"Yu'er will definitely pamper Chuchu more than we do." Su Yuan said with a smile.
Cheng Lang just smiled and said nothing.
He also felt that Gu Yu would favor Gu Ruchu more than they did.
Not long after, Gu Yu finished his shower and came over after changing his clothes.
He stood beside Su Yuan, looking down at his sleeping sister.
"Mom, what's my sister's name?" Gu Yu asked.
He doesn't even know his sister's name!
Is my sister's last name Gu? Or her adoptive father's? Or her mother's? Or maybe her maternal grandfather's?
"Gu Ruchu! What does Yu'er think?" Su Yuan asked Gu Yu's opinion.
Gu Yu widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Sister's surname is Gu? But..." Gu Yu hesitated to speak. It was naturally good for Gu Ruchu to have the surname Gu.
"Yes! Her brother's surname is Gu, so naturally she should have the surname Gu as well, since they are siblings." Su Yuan reached out and touched Gu Yu's face.
Gu Yu was ecstatic. It was because of him that his mother let his sister take his surname.
"Mom, I..." Gu Yu's nose felt sore and his eyes turned red.
Su Yuan smiled and pinched his face, "What? Are you so moved that you want to cry?"
Gu Yu nodded in acknowledgment, "Mom! Don't worry, I will take good care of my sister and pamper her in the future."
"Silly child! Since we are here, it is natural for us to protect you and Chuchu!" Su Yuan smiled. Her hands were a little numb, and she handed Gu Ruchu to Cheng Lang to hold.
Cheng Lang glanced at Gu Yu and asked, "Yu'er, do you want to hug your sister?"
Gu Yu quickly shook his head, "No! I'll hold my sister when she's older."
Gu Ruchu is too young now, and he is afraid of dropping her.
Cheng Lang didn't force him and let Gu Yu sit down and rest.
"Yu'er, are you going to take the imperial examination this year? Or do you want to be a military general?" Cheng Lang suddenly asked about Gu Yu's future plans.
Did Gu Yu want to take the imperial examination and become an official in the court? Or did he want to join the army and make achievements on the battlefield?
In fact, he hoped that Gu Yu would take the imperial examination.
Gu Yu is intelligent and has a photographic memory.
He had an easier time taking the imperial examinations than making achievements on the battlefield.
Moreover, as a civil servant, he doesn't have to leave Kyoto or Su Yuan, and Su Yuan doesn't have to worry about Gu Yu.
Gu Yu pursed his lips and said, "I want to take the imperial examination! I will take the provincial examination in August. After passing the provincial examination, I will take the metropolitan examination three years later. I am only eleven years old this year, which is not the right age to take the metropolitan examination."
One has to be at least thirteen years old to take the imperial examination, so he can't take it this year.
Three years later he will be fourteen years old and can take the exam.
If he were to take part in the imperial examination this year, he wouldn't be completely confident, but if he were given another three years, he would definitely be able to get into the top three and come back to show his mother!
He wanted to be a civil servant, but he would not give up martial arts.
If Dongyu is in trouble in the future, he will step forward and lead the troops to fight.
When the world was at peace, he served as a civil servant and spoke for the people.
When the world is in chaos, he can still pick up his spear and defend his country.
"Good! We are all very pleased that Yu'er has such a plan." Cheng Lang nodded with appreciation.
When Gu Yu was in Duke Li's mansion, he had noticed that Gu Yu was a child with his own ideas and willing to endure hardships.
He will definitely become an outstanding figure in the future.
Gu Yu felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Cheng Lang. "I... I'm not as good as my adoptive father said."
"Who said that? Our Yu'er is the best boy in the world." Su Yuan praised.
That's what she thought! Gu Yu was better than any other child.
Gu Yu's face flushed slightly.
His adoptive father and mother both had such high hopes for him, how could he let them down?
He will definitely become a child that his parents are proud of!
At the end of August, Su Yuan held a full moon banquet for Gu Ruchu.
At the full moon banquet, Su Yuan invited many guests.
Chen brought Chen Qingluo to the banquet.
Ever since she had Chen Qingluo as her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chen would almost always bring Chen Qingluo with her to every banquet she attended, as she wanted everyone to know that she had a beautiful and well-behaved daughter-in-law.
Chen Qingluo's reputation gradually turned around.
In the past, everyone thought that Chen Qingluo was ugly and didn’t dare to go out and see people. Now everyone knows that Chen Qingluo is too beautiful and that’s why she acts low-key.
Seeing Chen's ostentatious face, they could only envy her in their hearts.
After all, their daughter-in-law is no match for Chen Qingluo and cannot suppress the Chen family at all!
