Chapter 192 Does a stingy and petty dad get loved?
Gu Jun rarely said such tender and cheesy things, and he felt a little awkward after saying them, but the words had a good effect. After hearing them, the little guy blinked his big eyes, his eyelashes fluttering like stars in the night sky, and his baby voice rose several octaves, "Really?"
Gu Jun smiled and gently pressed down the little guy's upturned hair. The little guy, in a very good mood, rubbed his head against Gu Jun's palm, feeling soft and squishy.
"What are the father and son talking about?" As soon as Shu Yun came back, she saw the father and son huddled together affectionately. Before, the little guy had been stingy and petty for a long time because Gu Jun hadn't bought him milk candy, and wouldn't even let him hold him. But now they're being affectionate again.
"Mom." Gu Xi ran up to Shu Yun on her little legs, stood on tiptoe, hugged Shu Yun's legs with both hands, and looked up at Shu Yun with her chubby little face full of longing.
Shu Yun couldn't resist the little guy's expectant gaze, so she could only put her hands under the little guy's armpits and pull him into her arms.
Gu Xi squinted her eyes happily and rubbed her face against Shu Yun.
"What happened to your face?" Shu Yun frowned involuntarily as she looked at the red marks on the little guy's face.
Gu Xi whispered to Shu Yun what had just happened, and then asked worriedly, "Daddy said I'm your most precious baby, Mommy, am I?"
"Of course, who else could it be but you?" Shu Yun pinched Gu Xi's cheek hard, making Gu Xi laugh so hard that her little teeth showed.
However, Gu Xi was still worried and added, "Even if I am stingy, is that true?"
Shu Yun nodded without hesitation, "No matter what the baby is like, he/she will always be the most beloved little baby of mom and dad."
Shu Yun held the chubby little guy for a while, and her arms started to ache. She handed the child to Gu Jun as she spoke.
"Besides, didn't you say Daddy was stingy and cheap when he didn't buy you candy before? Does that mean you don't like Daddy anymore just because he's stingy and cheap?"
Gu Xi: ...
He glanced at his father who was holding him, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded, "Right, I like it."
Gu Jun: ...
Is it difficult to answer? There's even a hint of hesitation.
Gu Jun no longer wants to cling to this heartless ingrate.
Gu Xi noticed it too, and stuck out her tongue shyly, wrapping her little arms around Gu Jun's neck, "Baby likes Daddy."
Gu Jun's expression finally improved. "Alright, he's not too heartless. I can hug him a little longer."
Shu Yun found it amusing, but she still corrected Gu Xi's earlier statement, "But baby, Mommy doesn't think you're stingy."
“Look, the iron ring was given to you by your father, so it’s yours. Jinbao wanted to play with it, and you lent it to him. That’s your courtesy and good upbringing. But if he borrows it and doesn’t return it, that’s his problem, because the thing doesn’t belong to him in the first place. To put it bluntly, it’s misappropriation of personal property. As for you, wanting to get it back after you don’t want to borrow it is a perfectly legitimate and reasonable request. After all, it’s all yours, baby, and it’s your right. Don’t you think so?”
Gu Xi's little brain was a bit confused. He didn't quite understand what it meant to seize personal property or what rights were, but that didn't stop his mother from saying he was right. He nodded and said, "Yes, Mom is right. I'll listen to Mom."
Shu Yun saw Ah happy lying in the doghouse chewing on a bone, rubbed the dog's head and praised, "Our Ah Xi is loyal to its master and is the best wolfhound. Our Ah happy will have an extra meal tonight!"
Ah-happy stood up and barked happily.
Although Ah happy is tall, it is very gentle with its family. Even though Gu Xi is half a head shorter than Ah Xi, Gu Xi is not afraid of it. Its favorite thing to do is to rub Ah Xi's head and play wildly with Ah happy outside.
Ah-happy received an extra meal that evening. Shu-Yun made braised pork and mixed the sauce into Ah-Xi's rice. It was thick, sweet, and fragrant. Ah-happy ate with her head down, never looking up the whole time.
After receiving a sumptuous dinner, Ah-happy's little dog seemed to have come to some conclusion, and from then on, whenever Hong-Hui and Jin-Bao appeared near his house, Ah-happy would bark and howl.
At first, Hong Hui was still angry. She had a stone in her pocket, and when A Xi called out, she threw it at the dog. However, the wolfhound was not one to be trifled with. It nimbly dodged the stone and chased after Hong Hui. So Hong Hui ran in front and A Xi chased behind. She almost ran for two miles before she finally got rid of A happy's relentless pursuit.
However, Hong Hui was probably just naturally mischievous. After provoking him once, she didn't stop. The next time, she took a stone and tried to throw it at A Xi. A Xi chased her for two miles, leaving her panting and out of breath, as if her lungs were about to explode.
However, Ah-hsi is clever and knows how to keep her distance. She only ever scares Hung-hui and never actually says anything.
After several such incidents, Hong Hui had to sneak away whenever she went to Ding Hongmei's house, for fear of disturbing the vicious dog nearby.
That day, Hong Hui visited Ding Hongmei's house again. When she arrived at Shu Yun's house, she walked much more quietly. Seeing that the annoying vicious dog hadn't come out, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Once she was out of danger, she put her hands on her hips and yelled at the neighbor, "You damn dog, if you yell at me again, I'll pull out your teeth and eat your dog meat next time!"
Ding Hongmei curled her lip at his spineless appearance, "All you dare to do is shout and scare people. It's just a dog and you're scared like this. Hong Hui, I'm not trying to be mean, but you're not much braver than a rat."
Hong Hui: "That's a wolfhound. It's taller than me when it stands up. If it really bites me, its sharp teeth could bite right through my arm. I wouldn't dare to mess with it again."
Ding Hongmei snorted, but Hong Hui pretended not to hear.
Ding Hongmei's personality has changed a lot in recent years. Although she used to be hypocritical, she is not as gloomy and strange as she is now.
Ding Hongmei said casually, "How could a dog be stronger than a human? Whether it's a mongrel or a wolfhound, a dog is still just an animal. If a dog were stronger than a human, would it be kept by a rope around its neck and treated as a pet to guard the house?"
“I heard that a few years ago there was a rabies outbreak in several villages around us. At that time, almost all the dogs in several villages, big and small, were poisoned to death. Dogs don’t understand. If you give them something, they think it’s something delicious, but they don’t know that it’s all hidden with rat poison. So what’s there to be afraid of about a dog?”
Upon hearing this, Hong Hui's mind raced, and she murmured, "Rat poison?"
Ding Hongmei smiled, but her words sounded like genuine advice: "Hey, Hong Hui, don't get any crazy ideas. I'm just giving you an example. That's Shu Yun's pet dog. If something really happens to it, you'll see if he comes after you."
