Chapter 192: Try it?

When two families have a meal, there are only one table of guests.

The Gu family stewed a big rooster, made pickled fish, fresh meat, steamed eggs, and mixed cold dishes.

During this meal, Gu Zhongyuan was also pushed out in a wheelchair.

Gu Hansong opened a bottle of good wine, and Gu Zhongyuan and Meng Fude started drinking as if they had met too late.

Gu Zhongyuan has been paralyzed at home for so many years and can hardly go out a few times a year. I guess he must be feeling suffocated. It's rare that Meng Fude is willing to drink and chat with him, so he started talking about everything that happened in the past and what's happening now.

Of course, this was also because the two families' children were talking and were going to be in-laws in the future. Gu Zhongyuan also wanted to take this opportunity to explain things to the Meng family.

Gu Zhongyuan couldn't count on his son's silence. Some things he had to discuss with his in-laws himself.

Being from the same village, the Meng family knew something about the Gu family's situation.

For example, the Gu family moved from the village to the city because Old Man Gu was capable and could repair trains. He used his connections to get his son out, and the whole family moved to live in the city.

It’s just that Gu Zhongyuan was unlucky. He had an accident at work and his waist was injured by a machine, leaving his lower limbs paralyzed.

Because of this, his wife in the city divorced him and left her two children to become someone else's stepmother.

For example, Gu Yue's mother, Gu Hansong's sister, was a person with a particularly miserable life. She suffered from hemorrhage during childbirth and died without being saved.

Because Gu Yue's husband's family saw that she was a girl, they didn't want her and planned to give her away. It was Gu Hansong who took the newborn Gu Yue home and acted as both a father and a mother to raise her to her current age.

Everyone knows these things, but they are not clear about the details.

This time, Gu Zhongyuan spoke in detail, mainly mentioning the matter of Gu Hansong's biological mother.

That person is still in the city. Now that Gu Hansong is capable, it is hard to say whether she will come back to find her son.

But it doesn't matter. When they divorced, she took most of the compensation, and her successor never gave any alimony. Now that she came to them, they have a lot to say, so they just chase her away.

Gu Zhongyuan also talked about himself.

With his legs, it is impossible for him to stand up, and he will have to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life. But this is his son's business. If the boy is capable and can earn money, he can hire someone to take care of him. If not, it will be up to him as the son to help. He will be thankful if his daughter-in-law can cook for him.

Then there is Gu Yue.

These are all the responsibilities of the Gu family and Gu Hansong. In short, it is his daughter-in-law who wants to help. It is because his daughter-in-law has good intentions. If she is unwilling, he, as her father-in-law, has nothing to say.

After all, he knew his own family's situation clearly. Other girls came to marry to live a life, not to suffer and help alleviate poverty. He understood all this.

Gu Zhongyuan said so much, the essence of which was to express his stance, so that the Meng family could rest assured to hand the girl over to their son, and that their family would not be a burden.

In the middle, the engagement and marriage of the two children were also mentioned.

Meng Shulan still has to take the college entrance exam and continue her studies. She will definitely have to wait until after graduation to get married. By the time she finishes her studies, Gu Hansong will be 25 years old.

Twenty-five, that’s considered an older youth in the village.

But it doesn’t matter, going to school is important.

Matters of engagement and marriage are all arranged by the Meng family.

He Jinqiu and Meng Fude kept nodding.

I didn’t have much contact with them before, but now I see that the Gu family members are quite sincere.

Meng Fude and He Jinqiu are both simple and kind people. Gu Zhongyuan spoke so sincerely, so there was nothing to worry about. After this meal, they almost decided that Gu Hansong was their son-in-law.

The meal at Gu's house lasted until after three in the afternoon.

Gu Zhongyuan chatted with Meng Fude, while Gu Cui'er chatted with He Jinqiu.

The four of them are all good at chatting, and they talk endlessly about everything under the sun.

Meng Shulan didn't drink, so she finished her meal in no time and sat at the table, feeling extremely bored.

Gu Hansong asked her, "Do you want to read a magazine?"

"Magazine?"

Gu Hansong winked at her and Meng Shulan followed him.

The two went to Gu Hansong's room on the left.

In Meng Shulan's impression, men's rooms are somewhat dirty and messy, but Gu Hansong's room is unusually clean and tidy, and even has a faint fragrance.

This scent...

"Did you spray perfume in the room?"

The perfume he gave me last time had this scent.

Gu Hansong pointed to the bookshelf next to the windowsill, where there was a bottle of the same perfume, but the lid was open.

Meng Shulan: "You are quite particular about this, did you make this specially?"

I couldn't even bear to open my bottle of perfume, but he just opened it like that.

Look at this small earthen house. Not only are there neatly arranged desks and bookshelves, but there is also perfume that emits a fragrant scent from time to time. It seems that it has been deliberately arranged, waiting for me to come.

Gu Hansong: "It's the same as usual, but without perfume."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This bottle of perfume was indeed opened intentionally for her, but his room was always clean and tidy.

Meng Shulan covered her mouth and laughed, "I know."

Why is he still nervous?

Meng Shulan went to his bookshelf and took a rough look. There were not many books, but they were all disassembled and assembled by him. He collected the content that he thought was good and made a lot of notes on them.

This is really infuriating.

Not only is he smart, he's also hardworking.

Meng Shulan: "By the way, my mom and sister both liked the bag you bought yesterday. But I was scolded and didn't stop you from spending money. You are so ignorant."

The two of them returned to the town yesterday. Gu Hansong wanted to go back to the village and did not eat in the town. They did not take out the things they bought at that time.

After he left, Meng Shulan explained the matter. Everyone likes bags, so how can they not like them? Things in big shopping malls are so expensive.

But this is too expensive.

He Jinqiu must have talked to her daughter and told her that if she really wanted to buy one, she could just buy one. How could she need so many when she could buy them all for the women in the family?

What could Meng Shulan do? She had said it, but this person didn't listen!

Meng Shulan looked at him pretending to be angry.

Gu Hansong smiled, squeezed her hand and said, "Now, do I have to apologize to you?"

Meng Shulan: "Okay, tell me a few words."

Gu Hansong looked at her, his eyes darkened, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he became serious.

Meng Shulan blinked, "What?"

Gu Hansong didn't say anything, he just lowered his head and slowly moved closer.

Meng Shulan: “…”

What magazine were you reading? It turns out this is what he was thinking.

Indeed, the two had been dating for so long but had never even kissed.

In a few days, they will be separated again, so Gu Hansong wants to give it a try.

After the New Year, when they went to South City, Gu Hansong also went with Jiang Jun and Shen Chengyuan to watch Hong Kong and Taiwan movies twice. Although they were not that kind of movies, there were kissing scenes in them.

Gu Hansong had practiced it many times in his mind.

Today, even the perfume is on, and he will definitely try it.
