Extra 2 - Baby Gu: Third Chapter

[Third]

Situ Mo was busy in the kitchen. When she heard the door open, she looked out and said, ‘You are back? Baby, mom missed you so much. Did you miss mom?

 

Gu Weiyi stared at her, ‘You are disgusting?’

 

Mo stepped out of the kitchen and caught his son's fleeting body. She kissed him on the face and said, ‘Baby, was kindergarten fun today?’

 

Little Gu Mowei giggled and said, ‘Mom, today Xinxin said she would be my girlfriend, what is a girlfriend?’

 

Mo smiled and hugged him, saying, ‘Girlfriend is going to marry you in the future, just like dad and mom.’

 

Little Gu Mowei thought for a moment and said, ‘Can I marry mom then?’

 

Mo rubbed his son's little face with her face and said, ‘What should dad do then?’

 

Little Gu Mowei thought for a moment and said, ‘Then dad get married with Xinxin.’

 

Gu Weiyi was put aside by the mother and son for a long time. Then he said unhappily, ‘Your mother has married me. You have no chance now, just marry your Xinxin.’

 

Little Gu Mowei just tried to cry. Suddenly, he remembered that today, when his dad went to the kindergarten to pick him up. The teachers all talked around his father. So he said, ‘Well, you you go and marry Miss. Chen, and Miss. Xu, and the director of the kindergarten.’

 

Mo looked at Gu Weiyi and asked Little Gu Mowei, ‘Come on, tell mom, why should dad marry your teachers?’

 

Little Gu Mowei told her honestly, ‘Today, dad came to pick me up. Teachers said that my father looked handsome. They all went to play with him. They had a good time. The teacher kept laughing.

 

Mo put little Gu Mowei down, put her hands around her chest, looked at Gu Weiyi and said, ‘Daddy, have a good time?’

 

Gu Weiyi said calmly, ‘Of course, those teachers were good at laughing.’

 

Mo nodded, squatted down and said to little Gu Mowei, ‘Honey, uncle Fu Pei said he would take us to the zoo. Shall we go to the zoo this Sunday?’

 

Little Gu Mowei cheered, ‘Yeah! Go to the zoo.’

 

Gu Weiyi crossed Situ Mo's neck, gritted his teeth and said, ‘Situ Mo, are you rebelling?’

 

Mo forced out a few laughs under pressure, ‘Husband, let go, I'll give you a good laugh.’

 

Little Gu Mowei was too lazy to take care of them. He went to watch TV happily and wondered what he should bring to feed the animals on Sunday.

 

Little Gu Mowei was asked to call his parents to school because he beat other children at school. But he was already a big class child. It was a tradition that big class children should beat others.

 

Parents were so busy but they had to be blamed by kindergarten teachers. They were angry and helpless.

 

As soon as dad got home, he was about to beat little Gu Mowei. mom stopped him desperately. Little Gu Mowei hid behind her mother's buttocks and shouted, ‘Bad dad...’

 

When Mo saw that the child was so arrogant at such a young age, she stopped protecting him. Little Gu Mowei was beaten up. After being beaten, he decided to go on a hunger strike at night. So he announced this great declaration to his mom and dad. However, his mother said yes, I would not prepare your meal. And his father said good, I would beat you if you dared to eat at night.

 

The evening dishes were all little Gu Mowei's favorite. There were braised pork ribs, steamed eggs, bamboo shoot soup...

 

So he held up his little chest and said to his mother, ‘Mom, I want to eat.’

 

When little Gu Mowei sat down at the table with a small bowl in his hand, dad said, ‘Didn't I say you dare to eat and I'll beat you up?’

 

Mom stared at dad and said coldly that if you dare to beat him, I'll beat you, and you’re going to sleep in the study at night.

 

Dad was silent. Haha, sleep in the study.

 

Later, his mother talked to little Gu Mowei for a long time, and he promised not to beat anybody any more. But the next day a classmate laughed at him and said he always wrote his name wrong, so he beat him up again.

 

Little Gu Mowei wanted to have a dog, because Xinxin had one at home and showed off to him how cute her dog was every day.

 

He told his mother that he wanted to keep a dog, but her mother disagreed. He went to tell his father again, his father said that did you feel lonely.

 

Little Gu Mowei said yes.

 

Dad said then I would ask mom to raise a brother and sister for you.

 

Little Gu Mowei, thinking of being cool, agreed, cheered and went to his mother, saying that his father said she could raise a brother and sister.

 

His mother ignored it. She told him to ask your father to give birth by himself.

 

So Little Gu Mowei sent the message back to the study. Dad said. ‘Tell mom I couldn't do that without you.’

 

Little Gu Mowei ran to tell his mother, his mother said, ‘Let him die.’

 

Little Gu Mowei told his father that his mother said she let him die.

 

Dad said, ‘Tell your mother that she's going to be widowed when I’m dead.’

 

Mother said, ‘Immediately get remarried, being a hell widow.’

 

Little Gu Mowei was so tired that he didn't want any brother or sister, and he didn't want a puppy either.

 

Little Gu Mowei was beaten by his father again today, because he wanted to eat ice cream, but his mother refused him. He said, ‘Bad mother.’ And then his father beat him… Bad dad!

 

Mother was still angry, hiding in the room without coming out, bad, what if his mother ignored him forever?

 

Little Gu Mowei paced back and forth in front of her mother’s room, and finally took up the courage to push the door open, ‘Mom, sor...ry. ‘

 

Little Gu Mowei felt deceived. His mother was watching the TV play with great relish, and her eyes were shining with laughter.

 

Adults were liars, liars.

 

Situ Mo was so gratified to see her son come to apologize so sensibly that she went to pick him up and let him sit on her lap and watch TV together.

 

Little Gu Mowei looked up and asked his mother, ‘Mom, aren't you angry?’

 

‘Mother won't be angry when you have admitted your mistake.’ Situ Mo rubbed his head.

 

‘Well, let's go out and tell dad you're not angry, okay?’ Little Gu Mowei was scared by his father, who was unhappy.

 

‘No.’ Situ Mo firmly refused.

 

‘Why? Aren't you not angry?’ Little Gu Mowei was puzzled.

 

‘I'm not angry with you. I'm angry with your father.’

 

‘Why?’

 

‘He hit my son!’

 

‘...’

 

Dad, I sympathize with you.

 

Aha, today was the second day, father and mother had not been reconciled. Would they divorce? If yes, then he could marry his mother, oh yeah!

 

In the afternoon, his grandparents all came. It was funny that dad and mom pretended to be very loving. Little Gu Mowei saw her mother's hand twisting father’s thigh under the table. They were really going to divorce, oh yeah!

 

Grandpa Gu thought it strange that little Gu Mowei had just been very happy, but he got depressed when he came back from pouring water in the kitchen. His two short hands crossed his chest, frowning and looking like a little philosopher.

 

Grandpa Gu felt that he should be enlightened. How could such a young man look bitter and hateful? So he said, ‘Baby, tell Grandpa, what are you angry with?’

 

Little Gu Mowei used to hate grandpa calling him baby because it looked very unmanly, but now he was sad, he needed to talk, so he just forgave him, so he said, ‘Mom and dad don't divorce.’

 

Grandpa Gu was shocked, ‘Why are they divorcing?’

 

Little Gu Mowei looked at Grandpa as if he was looking at an idiot, ‘I said no divorce.’

 

Grandpa Gu said, ‘Did they want a divorce?’

 

Little Gu Mowei nodded, ‘They quarreled. Xinxin said they would divorce after quarrelling. Although they often quarreled, and never divorced, but they quarreled for a long time yesterday. Mother slept with me last night.’

 

Grandpa Gu asked again, ‘Why there’s no divorce now?’

 

Little Gu Mowei showed indignation, ‘I just went to the kitchen and saw dad kissing mom!’

 

Grandpa Gu was speechless, and thought to himself: I was too gossipy!

 

As a representative of solemn parents in the old times, he couldn’t imagine his son's affectionate behavior with his daughter-in-law at all.

 

Little Gu Mowei knew he had made troubles again. He sat on a stool and looked at the angry faces of his grandparents. Then he looked at his parents, who bowed their heads and didn't talk. He thought, ‘Are they going to divorce?’ Although he wanted to marry his mother, he suddenly felt that he could not live without his father...It's so sad.

 

It should be gone back to after lunch, because the elders came, little Gu Mowei was left for them. Gu Weiyi and Situ Mo went out on a date. Little Gu Mowei couldn't understand what the elders were chattering about, so he played on his own and turned things around. Then he turned out an iron box from the wardrobe. There was a small red book in the box, which read: People's Republic of China. The following three characters were unknown to him. As the most literate gifted child in the class, he was hurt by these words. He gave his book to his grandmother, who said it was a marriage certificate. Then she opened it up with a smile and counted it there for a moment. Little Gu Mowei stepped back by a sudden roar, his grandma said that the two rabbit bastards had been secretly married before they knew!

 

Little Gu Mowei knew it's wrong to swear at people, even though rabbits were cute.

 

Then Grandpa and Grandma had a meeting, and that's the scene now.

 

Grandpa said, ‘How could you hide this from us?’

 

Dad said, ‘Why are you acting as if we were doing something harmful to nature?’

 

Mom held dad, ‘shut up.’

 

Grandma said, ‘You shut up, too. I haven't picked beat you up yet.’

 

...Adults were so boring. Little Gu Mowei yawned and went to his room to watch cartoons.
