Stay Home Daddy: I Was Reborn After My Daughter Passed Away
Chapter 212 Is Ji Pianran’s mother from a wealthy family?

Chapter 212: 212 Is Ji Pianran’s mother from a wealthy family?

Gu Chen pulled up the ginseng, washed it clean with Spirit Spring Water, and packed two large bags of goji berries and cherries.

He stored everything in the space, ready for use.

Only then, satisfied, did he come out and walk back in the direction of home.

It must be said that Uncle Guang was really efficient at getting things done.

Not only had he cleaned the pot, but he’d even cut the matsutake mushrooms for him, just waiting to be cooked into porridge.

Without hesitation, Gu Chen scooped two ladles of Spirit Spring Water that he had drawn from the space a few days ago, poured it into the pot, and added two slices of the neatly cut ginseng.

Then he smiled at Uncle Guang, "Half an hour, it will be ready in half an hour."

Inside the house, Ji Pianran was chatting with Wu Shuhui while changing clothes, because she was going to see her father and brother. She wanted to dress up nicely and present her best self to them.

She took out from the wardrobe the clothes Gu Chen had bought for her. Although they were a bit thick, honestly, only this quality of material was presentable.

In fact, her dressing up this way was not just to show that she was doing well, but also to let her family understand that Gu Chen truly treated her well.

She wanted her father and Xiao Chu to acknowledge Gu Chen.

Seeing her mother changing, Tangtang grew anxious.

The little one toddled over and tugged at Ji Pianran’s hem, cooing, "Mommy, Tangtang wants to wear a little dress, the one Daddy bought."

The wool skirt Gu Chen bought for Tangtang, if paired with a little long-sleeved shirt, would be just perfect for the season.

Seeing the child wanting to change clothes, Wu Shuhui quickly asked her daughter, "Where are her clothes?"

Ji Pianran smiled and took Tangtang’s clothes out of the wardrobe, "This one, she really likes the clothes Daddy bought her."

Wu Shuhui eagerly took the clothes and smiled at Tangtang with a face full of love and kindness.

"Should grandma help Tangtang change her clothes?"

In just half a day, the little one had already grown familiar with her grandmother. Although she couldn’t differentiate good people from bad ones, the little girl could discern the kindness and malice in others’ eyes.

Grandma’s eyes were filled with kindness, showing that she really liked her.

Tangtang nodded obediently, "Yes."

Wu Shuhui touched the fabric and couldn’t help but sigh, "It seems that Gu Chen is really good to you and the child."

For Wu Shuhui, accustomed to good clothes, a simple touch revealed the quality of the material. These clothes had to be from upscale stores.

You see, things from a department store are not something a village youngster can afford.

The fact that he could buy such expensive clothes for his wife and child showed his sincerity.

After Ji Pianran had changed, she turned to her mother and with heartfelt sincerity said, "He is indeed very good to me and the child, I don’t regret marrying him at all."

Entrusting her life to one person, there wasn’t a single thing he did that made her regret.

This was the highest affirmation a wife could give to a man.

Although she was her mother, she was also a woman, and Wu Shuhui was shocked.

She knew the weight of these words.

Good feelings, liking.

These might just be things that could disappear in a few days, a few months.

But no regrets, it proved that every day, every hour, every detail of her life with him, she had never regretted.

You see, to a husband, ’no regrets’ is the best affirmation.

Wu Shuhui had not expected her daughter to hold such high recognition for Gu Chen.

She nodded contently, "As long as you are happy, we are happy too."

Honestly, Gu Chen’s current situation indeed paled in comparison to the Ji Family’s.

But Wu Shuhui understood that money is something people earn all their lives, as long as they are alive.

Gu Chen is still young and so clever.

It’s not difficult to make money; it’s a matter of time, and he just lacks some time.

But his love for his daughter is truly precious.

This has nothing to do with money.

....

On this side, Gu Chen’s porridge was ready. Fearing her father-in-law would find it too rich, Gu Chen specially fished out some of the pickles that Ji Pianran had made from the pickle jar and brought them along.

To be honest, although she didn’t know where Ji Pianran had learned to make them, as a daughter-in-law, she was quite satisfied with the pickles herself.

After everyone was ready, Gu Chen then entered the space and took out the things she had prepared.

Upon seeing this, Uncle Guang hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, I’ll go bring the car over, I’ll be back quickly."

Now that everything was out in the open, there was no need to hide anything.

The village roads are all earthen, too uncomfortable for the madam to walk on.

Gu Chen didn’t compete, she just smiled.

Helpless, the other’s car was indeed better than her own van. Besides, her own little van had its rear seats removed to carry vegetables, it really couldn’t fit so many people.

At this moment, those people on the ridge who were eager to see what Jin Gui’s rare ingredients looked like were just arriving at the entrance of Gu Chen’s house.

Seeing Gu Chen and Ji Pianran standing at the door, all smiling, they approached to say hello.

"Oh, Chenzi, who is it that came looking for you today?"

"Yes, you even went to the village committee. We thought something big had happened."

"Otherwise, such a misunderstanding wouldn’t have arisen, I heard that matsutake is something precious, I have never seen it in my life, why don’t you show it to us and let us have a look?"

The group of people coordinated perfectly, chattering and laughing together, it was a lively scene.

Hearing that they were talking about the recent incident, Wu Shuhui felt a bit embarrassed.

After all, it was she who had caused the fuss.

Feeling sorry that her son-in-law had been wronged by the villagers, she was somewhat apologetic.

"Well, it was all a misunderstanding. I came to look for my daughter and son-in-law. I apologize for the trouble I’ve caused everyone."

She chuckled sheepishly, calmly explaining to everyone.

It was only after she spoke that everyone realized there was a middle-aged woman standing behind Gu Chen.

She stood upright, and paired with a cheongsam, she appeared very charismatic.

At this point, eyes widened, looking at one another, all showing expressions of shock.

"Wow, is this Pian Ran’s mom?"

Everyone knew how Pian Ran had come to the village.

They all thought she had come fleeing from misfortune, never expecting she would have such a beautiful mother?

Most importantly, this woman seemed to be from a family of considerable wealth.

The disparity in status and everyone’s perception was just too great.

Ji Pianran, holding candy candy, stepped forward and gave everyone an apologetic smile.

"Yes, this is my mother. She came to our house for a meal today and got lost, so this misunderstanding occurred."

For these people, she only needed to provide a simple explanation; no need for too many details.

The crowd, still with mouths agape, was about to say something.

When they heard the sound of car tires crushing over the dirt road.

Following that, they saw a shiny black car, its hood ornamented with a small golden figurine, driving towards them.

"Wow, what kind of car is this? It’s the first time I’ve ever seen such a beautiful car."

"At first glance, it looks very valuable."

"Goodness me."

The people exclaimed in admiration.

Uncle Guang opened the car door and stepped out amid everyone’s astonishment.

He gave a slight nod towards Wu Shuhui, "Madam, we can set off now."
