Chapter 488 Female junior, holding gold bricks(1/4)
On Wednesday morning, the postman delivered the newspapers subscribed to my home and a letter.
Letters are mailed regularly, every month, from the Jiangsu Foreign Affairs Embassy.
Most of the people who wrote the letters were Sharapova and the secretary of the foreign embassy. Most of the letters expressed concern about Li Shu's growth, but Li Xuewu never wrote back to her.
Gu Ning couldn't even hope to write a reply to them. She wouldn't even have written a letter to Jinling if her mother-in-law hadn't called and scolded her.
Also sent with the letter every month was 20 rubles in foreign currency, which was the alimony agreed upon by Zhou Gancheng and them, and was given to Li Shu.
When she lived in the courtyard last year, Sharapova, who was in charge of this matter, even came to visit the children.
Seeing that Li Shu lived well in the Li family and was well taken care of, she never came again and only visited in the form of letters.
The purchasing power of 20 rubles was amazing at this time, especially when Zhou Gancheng also applied for a friendship store pass for Li Xuewu.
But this document was kept by Li Xuewu in Li Shu's small box, together with the quilt he used to bring her back and her mother's notebook, and was never used once.
The monthly maintenance fee of 20 rubles is also included in it. After opening the envelope and reading the letter, it will be kept intact in the box.
The Li family did not lack alimony from Li Shu, and they even identified Li Shu as a member of the Li family and the eldest granddaughter registered in Li Shun's genealogy.
All the expenses for raising her are borne by Li Xuewu. This is his responsibility and obligation as a father, and he does not need help from others.
However, Li Xuewu cannot deprive Li Shu of her right to know her life experience, nor can he restrict her right to search for and understand the past.
The money belongs to Li Shu, and the documents used to go to the store also belong to Li Shu. These letters, including these, are a testimony and time certificate for Li Shu to understand the past.
Li Xuewu didn't know when to tell his daughter about her life experience, let alone how to face her choice for the future.
These are all left to Li Shu to decide in the future. Whether she is looking for relatives or seeking her life experience, Li Xuewu supports her.
His love for his children is sincere, without choices or conditions, let alone utilitarianism and purpose.
Therefore, when Han Jiankun handed the letters and newspapers to Li Xuewu, Li Xuewu just read the same letters, collected them and sent them to the study upstairs.
Li Shu was woken up twice by her younger brother last night. She didn't get up in the morning and was still in bed.
Gu Ning and her mother Liu Yin were washing Li Ning's face and cleaning up after he had pooped and peed last night.
Seeing Li Xuewu coming up, Liu Yin carried the trash can and walked downstairs, telling him to wake up Li Shu and wash and dress the child.
"I'll tell my work unit today and ask someone from the communications department to come over and move the phone down."
Li Xuewu walked out of the study and mentioned something to Gu Ning.
Gu Ning was holding Li Ning while breastfeeding. The little guy was getting fatter and fatter. He might have eaten.
"Let's forget it. We don't have many phone calls. It's too troublesome."
“Not too much trouble”
Li Xuewu said something, looked for Li Shu's small clothes in the guest room closet, and then said: "Take a break and ring the bell downstairs first."
"Dad - Hua Hua"
"Hey! Here we come."
Li Xuewu was just like the old lady who had served the young master and young lady earlier. She had to agree to her daughter's call.
He put his daughter's clothes on the bed and carried her to the bathroom. At the same time, he discussed with Gu Ning whether to purchase some nutritional supplements and mail them to Chang'an. Gu Ning's sister-in-law, Mu Hongyan, was approaching the end of her life.
Postal delivery is very slow at this time, especially for parcels, which may take some time to reach their destination.
He was thinking that the capital was far away from Chang'an, so he was waiting for the baby before thinking about purchasing and mailing it, but he was really pressed for time.
Gu Ning looked down at the child in her arms and replied, "Going on Sunday? Do you have time?"
"I'm not sure, I might have to meet with foreign businessmen." Li Xuewu came out of the bathroom with his daughter in his arms and said, "The cultural attaché of the French Foreign Embassy made an appointment with me. It seems to be about the eco-industrial zone."
Seeing his daughter trying to get back into bed, Li Xuewu smiled and teased her, "Listen, the birds outside the window are getting up. Why don't you stay in bed after washing your face? Be careful!"
"Giggle--I don't eat worms!"
Li Shu laughed happily and hid under the quilt, playing hide and seek with her father. She was like a giant insect. When Li Ning heard her sister's laughter, she turned around to watch the fun.
Gu Ning helped her son's face and asked him to eat quickly. He was curious about everything.
"If you don't have time, why don't I go with my mother? I'm afraid that the child won't be able to let go by then."
"You make a list and ask Jingru to buy it when the time comes. It's not as expensive as it is expensive."
Li Xuewu held up two sets of small clothes on the bed and gestured to his daughter: "Which one do you like to wear today? Choose the most beautiful one!"
"That--the one on the left!"
Li Shu said she wanted to choose the one on the left, but the one with her little finger was on the right. This really tested Li Xuewu's understanding.
It's a good thing that my daughter is not a leader, otherwise the cadres below would have had their heads exploded.
"This is the right side." Li Xuewu held up the clothes on his left hand and pointed to his daughter: "Is this the right one? This is the most beautiful one, right?"
"yes--"
Li Shu smiled and nodded, rolled over and crawled out of bed, waiting for her father to help her get dressed.
Children are always a bit indiscriminate, you can tell by looking at their shoes.
Even though the direction of the toes of the left and right feet has been told to them, they still wear them backwards.
Even if my feet feel uncomfortable when I put it on, I won't change it. It's just so awkward to wear.
Li Xuewu doesn't know the reason. It may be related to the child's visual organs not being fully developed, or it may be related to brain cognition.
Generally, five or six-year-old children still have this condition, which is a bit strange and he doesn't understand.
But Li Xuewu knows how to coax children, and he is very good at fooling the old people in the unit. Isn’t it easy to coax children?
In other words, he felt sorry for his daughter, otherwise he would have coaxed her to wash her face, brush her teeth, change clothes, and even prepare a breakfast of four dishes and one soup.
Every time her mother had to make two trips to dress Li Shu, she either didn't think this outfit looked good, or that one didn't look good.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The child now knows the word beautiful, but she has no concept of aesthetics.
She is just a nuisance, she wants more love from her family, and she is also a kind of coquettish person.
But it was early in the morning, and the whole family was busy, so Li Xuewu wouldn't run back and forth.
What should he do? Get two sets together and let his daughter choose the most beautiful one. What kind of theory is this?
"You take the time to call mom and ask if there are any Beijing products that my sister-in-law wants to eat, or if they are inconvenient to buy in Chang'an, fill them in the list."
While Li Xuewu was dressing his daughter, he told Gu Ning: "Pack up a few sets of Yueke clothes that my son has worn and mail them over together. Don't be too troublesome, they won't take up much space."
He put on little tiger shoes for Li Shu and carried her to the ground. Knowing that Gu Ning didn't understand this, he explained: "It's a point. I'm not sure. You can ask mom."
"I know, let's do it today"
Seeing that her son didn't want to eat, Gu Ning stood up and handed him over to Li Xuewu while he went to change clothes.
"I asked my mother what I should buy, and there might be something I couldn't think of, but I couldn't think of it."
"Ask more, you can also ask your colleagues, just have a casual chat~"
Li Xuewu hugged his son, teased his daughter, and said to Gu Ning: "Don't you often hold tea parties in your department? Talking about gossip is not as exciting as talking about children."
"Do you think our department is a park?"
Gu Ning changed her clothes and came out, combing her hair and said, "Okay, you don't have to worry about this anymore. I'll discuss it with Jingru and mom."
She bent down and picked up Li Shu, looked at her daughter, and said, "Look how dad washed our faces, they are still wet."
"Look how it was washed——"
Li Shu felt supported. Now she imitated her mother's tone and turned around to say something to her father, her expressions were somewhat similar.
Li Xuewu nodded his daughter's forehead and said, "If you hadn't cooperated, half of the Corgi's would have been washed!"
"Half a corgi-"
Li Shu has learned to speak accurately, her pronunciation is clear now, and she can learn all the words.
Gu Ning ignored the two people's teasing and carried her downstairs first.
Li Xuewu held his son in his arms and opened the window of the study room upstairs before going downstairs.
------------------
"Leader, Deputy Team Leader Yu has asked for leave."
As soon as he arrived at the unit, Peng Xiaoli got the news from the General Office and walked into the office to report to Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu was reading today's work briefing and asked without raising his head: "Do you know the reason?"
"Director Yu's father-in-law has passed away, and there is a funeral at home." Peng Xiaoli explained softly: "Director Yu's lover was an only daughter, so he was responsible for hosting the old man's funeral."
"Well, should it be held in the capital or in the steel city?"
Li Xuewu looked at yesterday's university study work information and asked casually: "Has Director Yu's family moved here?"
"Yes, after coming to the capital to work, Director Yu moved, and the old man also moved with him and lived together."
Peng Xiaoli saw that the lid of the teacup at the leader's hand was open, so he picked up the thermos bottle and refilled it with hot water.
"The trade union wants someone to arrange the funeral, but Director Yu said that keeping everything simple is the old man's last wish, so he won't bother organizing it."
