Shen Ningsi was originally a doctor from the agricultural research institute, not only proficient in farming but also skilled in medicine. She was a prominent rising star in Huaguo!
Who knew ...
In the end, Fan Xing could only put aside his doubts and take a group of people to look for Shen Ningsi and Gu Hong over there.
"General Gu, Madam Gu."
Fan Xing smiled and said, "These are the officers from the surrounding area who came to visit us specially."
Shen Ningsi took a look at those people. They were all wearing armor and it was obvious that they had paid careful attention to their attire.
"Everyone is well." Shen Ningsi leaned forward seriously.
"Madam is polite." Everyone dodged and avoided Shen Ningsi's greeting.
"Ma'am, shall we talk while we walk?"
They had just seen Gu Hong's attitude towards Shen Ningsi, and they also knew that Gu Hong doted on Shen Ningsi very much.
"I wonder if the General would mind?"
Their words were just politeness. Everyone knew the purpose of their visit.
Although everyone thought that Gu Hong had a bad temper, they never thought that Gu Hong would not even be polite to them.
"This general does mind."
Shen Ningsi was used to being annoyed by Gu Hong's blunt words.
It was rare to hear Gu Hong leave others speechless, and she was very happy.
Pinching his palms hard, he was able to straighten the corners of his lips that were slightly raised. Shen Ningsi said softly, "Please don't blame me, everyone. It's just that I have walked for too long today, and my body is really a little bit exhausted. That's why the general is a little worried."
Seeing the officials laughing a few times with strange embarrassment on their faces, Shen Ningsi lowered his eyes to hide his smile.
"The general has a straightforward personality and speaks without hesitation. Please don't be surprised."
How dare they blame Gu Hong?
Gu Hong alone can suppress all of them. They beg Gu Hong to have mercy on them, pay more attention to them, and give them more resources on a daily basis.
"Madam, you're joking. We came here to visit the General's wife. Now that she's feeling unwell, why would we force her?"
Shen Ningsi was about to exchange a few pleasantries with the others, but Gu Hong had already grabbed her wrist and led her outside.
"Are you still complaining that your complexion isn't white enough? Why are you still trying to be brave? Can't you really notice that you're feeling unwell?"
The generals immediately shut their mouths. Listening to Gu Hong's tone, if they dared to pester Shen Ningsi and say a few more words, this guy would probably raise his fist!
Everyone came here to find a chance to survive, not to rush in front of Gu Hong and seek death.
"Farewell, General, Madam."
After walking a long way, Shen Ningsi finally looked back at those people, and she turned her head and teased softly.
"The general is so majestic."
Gu Hong's expression froze slightly. "I'm not treating you badly, why are you being so sarcastic?"
“…”
Ana Shen was stunned.
In the past, Gu Hong said that he seemed to be covered with thorns and would refute everything he heard. Now, the person covered with thorns has become Gu Hong.
"I really think you're awesome..."
After she said this, she shook off Gu Hong's hand and strode forward.
Sanyazi was just about to remind Gu Hong to catch up with Shen Ningsi as he had done in the past, but he didn't expect that Gu Hong would catch up by himself this time.
Although Shen Ningsi tried her best to speed up, compared with Gu Hong's leg strength, her speed was simply not worth mentioning.
At least Shen Ningsi could clearly hear his own heavy breathing, but the person next to him was still strolling leisurely.
"Is it not okay if I'm wrong?"
"How could the General be wrong? The General absolutely cannot be wrong. Didn't you just say I was being sarcastic? A man as majestic as you can make all those officials hold their breath, so how could you be wrong?"
She said these words quickly without thinking, and the moment she finished speaking, a flash of regret crossed her eyes.
Damn it, what's going on?!
How could she behave like this in front of Gu Hong?
Not hearing any sound from the man next to him, Shen Ningsi's originally somewhat annoyed mood instantly disappeared.
She gritted her teeth viciously. Sure enough, this man was not a good guy!
He was trying every possible way to please her some time ago, but now that she has touched his sore spot, he has nothing to say.
Shen Ningsi became more and more angry as he walked, and his steps became heavier and heavier. At this moment, he suddenly heard a man's chuckle beside him.
"Gu Hong!"
Shen Ningsi turned around fiercely, only to see a smile in the eyes of the man who lowered his eyes, often scaring children to tears.
Having never seen such a person before, her heart skipped a beat and she froze in place.
"What are you laughing at?" She didn't even realize that her voice had softened uncontrollably.
"Laughing, you're cute."
Perhaps noticing that Shen Ningsi’s expression changed slightly, as if he was about to get angry, Gu Hong quickly said: “I was wrong, I sincerely admit my mistake, but I don’t know how to speak to please you.”
Shen Ningsi's anger was like a fist hitting cotton, and she weakly withdrew her gaze.
"Okay, don't talk to me. Just be quiet."
It was precisely because of this sentence that Gu Hong and the others became unusually quiet.
The two of them unknowingly walked to the market.
In the past, Shen Ningsi also brought a few children to the market. Looking at the food, Gu Yuner always stared at her with bright eyes.
Shen Ningsi would often buy those temptingly colored candied haws without waiting for her to ask, and one for each of them would make them happy for a long time.
This time, Gu Yuner was not there to think, she just glanced at the candied haws on the street.
During this period, the lives of the people in Wanning Village have improved a lot, and they have the energy to make other delicacies to sell.
Seeing that everyone looked extremely calm, Shen Ningsi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it won’t be possible to get everyone’s lives back on track so quickly, the villagers are willing to make these things, and I think their lives will only get better and better.
Just as Shen Ningsi was about to turn around and walk towards another path, two strings of candied haws with the bright color of rock sugar suddenly appeared in front of him.
She was stunned and looked up to see Gu Hong, with a smile in his eyes, but the words he spoke were deliberately cold.
"Just buy whatever you want to eat. I won't let you look at a few strings of candied haws and not dare to touch them."
Gu Hong waved his hand and said, "San Yazi has already prepared to win money. You can choose whatever you want to eat or wear on this street."
Shen Ningsi looked away, "I only have this one stomach, how much food can I put in it?"
She took the candied haws from Gu Hong's hand, and the moment their fingers touched, Shen Ningsi clearly felt the trembling of the other person's fingers.
She lowered her eyes, a smile flashing in them.
"Thank you, Brother Gu."
Ever since Gu Hong revealed his identity, Shen Ningsi never mentioned this title again.
Gu Hong himself didn't dare to bring it up, but now Shen Ningsi took the initiative to call it?
