Volume 1 Chapter 125 First Arrival in Kyoto

I have to say that they were both foresighted. Sheng Wanyan and the others really took a lot of things, and the two trunks were filled to the brim.

Mother Sheng wanted to take all the pots and pans with her. If Sheng Wanyan hadn't stopped her, the house would have been emptied.

Sheng Wanze also drove a car. It just so happened that his parents and grandparents all missed him, so they were all in the same car.

This gave Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanyan the opportunity to be alone. The two of them sat in the car at the back, looking at each other without saying a word.

After not seeing each other for a few months, she suddenly didn't know what to say, so Gu Tingxiao was shameless and took her hand.

"Yan'er, you must have had a hard time riding in the car."

"Fortunately, I didn't suffer much."

It was impossible for her to suffer. The whole family had enough food and drink in the same carriage, and they could sleep peacefully without worrying about others stealing their things.

They were going to get married in six days. Gu Tingxiao's heart was getting excited whenever he thought about it. He counted the days every day, hoping that he could marry the girl home as soon as possible.

"Drive quickly."

Sheng Wanyan was afraid that the elders in the car in front would see that they did not leave and would think too much later.

Gu Tingxiao also knew that now was not the time to be alone together, so he immediately followed the car in front and left the station.

The Gu family prepared a small courtyard for them in an alley, not far from the military compound.

As soon as Sheng Wanyan saw this piece of land, she felt itchy in her heart. In the future, she would have so many properties that she couldn't even count them. They were all inherited from her family. She had lived a privileged life since she was a child and didn't care about these things at all.

But it’s different now. She has to work hard for whatever she wants, and no one brings wealth to her.

So after a few years, she must buy a few courtyards in Kyoto and the alleys in Haishi, if she has the chance.

Even if she doesn't live there, keeping it for appreciation is a very good thing. She is not pursuing the wealth and fame of her previous life in this life.

But if you have some assets and useful interpersonal relationships, you still have to have a way out for yourself.

The yard is about 200 square meters, with four rooms and a living room, which is usually used for dining.

The kitchen is in the backyard, and firewood is used for cooking. There are piles of wood next to it, which should have been prepared by Gu Tingxiao during this period.

In the corner of the backyard is the toilet, which is built with red bricks, and the rooms are also made of red bricks.

The front yard is used for drying clothes. There is a clothesline made of wood in the front yard.

Several pieces of wood are tied into a "M" shape, and then a long piece of wood is placed on top.

This simple and durable clothes drying rack is made. You can just hang the washed clothes on it.

Pan Yue heard the sound of a car in the kitchen, and quickly put down the spatula in her hand and ran out. When she saw them, she greeted them enthusiastically.

"Grandma, Mom, Dad, and Sister, you are finally here."

"Hey~ Xiaoyue, come and show me, you didn't suffer any injustice when you went to the military area, did you? Did Xiaoze bully you?"

Pan Yue shook her head and answered Sheng's mother's question with a smile: "I'm fine. I go to work and stay in the family compound after work. I haven't suffered any grievances."

"Wan Ze is also very nice and family-oriented. He comes home as soon as he gets off work."

"That's good, that's good. We are relieved that you are doing well."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were getting along happily while Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanze took the things from the car.

"Grandma, Dad, Mom, the rooms are ready. How about my sister and grandma sleep in the two middle rooms, and Mom and Dad sleep in the one on the left?"

Pan Yue made the beds in every room early this morning, and Gu Tingxiao had already cleaned the others.

"Okay, okay, let's arrange it this way. You are thoughtful."

Mother Sheng patted Pan Yue's hand. She had no objection to Pan Yue's thorough work.

"Grandma, Dad, Mom, and Sister, the water is ready. You can take a bath and then we can have dinner."

"I stink so badly, I need to go wash myself."

Mr. Sheng smelled of sweat and was the first one to run to get clothes and take a shower.

Gu Tingxiao helped Sheng Wanyan take her luggage back to her room. She had the most luggage among the family. After coming to Kyoto, she would not return to Chengdu.

All the things in her house were brought here. Nowadays, there is no custom of leaving things at one's parents' home and returning to live there later.

Although the Sheng family also valued their daughter, after she went to join the army, she could only come back very few times a year.

People of this era are not so extravagant as to buy new things when they don't use them at home.

All of Sheng Wanyan's assets were here. Bicycle driver Gu Tingxiao found an old comrade-in-arms who drove a truck and sent them to the troops on the way.

She took out a large cloth bag, which contained her clothes, shoes and toiletries. The rest of the things were in a box, which she was too lazy to open.

"Yan'er, let me help you hang up your clothes."

Gu Tingxiao kept circling around her, following her wherever she went, wanting to help her.

Sheng Wanyan didn't act pretentiously and asked him to work and tidy up things for her.

"good."

After receiving the order, Gu Tingxiao immediately hung up the clothes for her, while Sheng Wanyan took out the dirty clothes and went to the yard to wash them.

After Sheng Wanyan finished washing the clothes, she thought of her underwear in her cloth bag.

There are also vest underwear of this era. He immediately dropped the basin in his hand and ran to the room.

When he returned to the room, Gu Tingxiao had already sorted out the clothes in the cloth bag.

"You...you have sorted everything out?"

Sheng Wanyan could only ask this question dryly, and Gu Tingxiao nodded without blushing or beating his heart.

But his red ears betrayed his mood. When he was tidying up, he found a few small clothes in the bag, which scared him.

Originally, I wanted to keep it for Sheng Wanyan to put in her closet when she came back, but when I thought about it, if it was so obvious, wouldn’t the girl be even more embarrassed?

After thinking about it, I decided to fold them all for her and put them in. It shouldn't be against the law to help my fiancée fold small clothes, right?

Sheng Wanyan's face flushed instantly when she heard his answer. This man didn't need to admit it so bluntly...

"You...why didn't you wait for me to come back..."

How did you organize the small clothes? Seeing them and handling them are two different things...

"cough!"

Gu Tingxiao clenched his fist, put it to his mouth and coughed to ease his embarrassment.

"Yan'er, we're getting married in six days."

"I think you shouldn't be the only one doing housework after marriage. You have to get used to it slowly."

Gu Tingxiao's words made her face even redder. It was the first time in her two lives that someone had arranged her clothes...

"I'm going to hang the laundry."

Sheng Wanyan left the room in a hurry after saying that. When Gu Tingxiao saw her red ears and her acquiescing attitude, the corners of his mouth kept rising.

My little fiancée is shy...

After taking a shower, the family sat in the living room to eat. Pan Yue thought that they didn’t eat well on the train.

Not only did I start making chicken soup at noon, I also prepared millet porridge that is nourishing to the stomach.

The dishes are also very good, including braised pork, braised fish, and pickled radishes made by Pan Yue’s family, which are perfect to go with porridge.
