Chapter 55 Hypocrisy
Gu Yue came all the way here to ask her to take a ride?
Meng Shulan was stunned, but she also understood that the little girl was arranged by Gu Hansong.
It just so happened that Meng Shulan also wanted to talk to him about something.
Then he smiled at Gu Yue and said, "That's great. Where is your uncle? When do you plan to leave?"
As he was speaking, the gate of the courtyard next door opened and Gu Hansong walked out.
When Meng Shulan saw him, she was about to wave and say hello, but she saw Gu Hansong turned his head and glanced at her expressionlessly, then went straight to the back to pull his mule.
Meng Shulan: “…”
Do you have to be so cold? Didn't you call Gu Yue over? Just take a car, but you make the atmosphere seem like the two of them are doing some underground activity.
Meng Shulan found it a little funny.
This guy has a weird temper, but sometimes he's quite cute.
Next to her, Meng Changli was also happy when she heard that Gu Hansong was going to town.
This is definitely good. You don’t have to stand in the cold on the road waiting for the bus. You can get a seat right away.
Meng Changli had been in frequent contact with Gu Hansong recently and felt that this young man was a good guy. So she didn't hesitate to ask and then waited on the dam with her sister.
After a while, Gu Hansong drove the car down.
Meng Changli helped put her sister's things up there, and also said a few polite words to Gu Hansong with a smile.
Although the relationship between the two parties is good, basic courtesy is still required.
Gu Hansong said calmly: "On the way."
Meng Changli laughed and said thank you several times.
Watching the car go away, Meng Changli also went back.
When He Jinqiu saw that her eldest daughter came back so soon, he asked about the situation.
Meng Changli then told Gu Hansong that he was also going to the town.
He Jinqiu was surprised. "Didn't he just go to town this morning?"
Going to town twice a day, is there so much to do? Meng Changli paused, then said: "Who knows about other people's affairs."
He Jinqiu: “…”
It always feels a bit weird.
Next door to the Gu family.
Grandma Wu came back from picking a handful of green vegetables from the vegetable garden at the back and saw her great-granddaughter Gu Yue sitting on the doorstep eating popcorn sticks.
The white popcorn sticks are crispy, fragrant and sweet.
This was what Gu Hansong bought for her from town in the morning.
The supply and marketing cooperative in the town had no apples for sale today, so Gu Hansong brought her some fried dough sticks and rice sticks.
This one is delicious too, it doesn’t matter.
Grandma Wu asked, "Is your uncle gone?"
"Um."
"Bringing the high school students from the Meng family?"
"Um."
Grandma Wu sighed, "After listening in the corner for a long time, I finally caught the person."
On the way out of the village.
Meng Shulan also asked Gu Hansong, "Didn't you just go to town this morning? Why are you going again now?"
Gu Hansong coughed, "No?"
Meng Shulan: “…”
Who said it wasn't possible? She just felt it was a little strange and asked casually.
Meng Shulan didn't think that Gu Hansong came here specially to see her off.
How could she have such a big face?
Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore.
Meng Shulan: "By the way, do you plan to go out recently?"
Gu Hansong: "Just tell me what you want to say."
Always asking this and that, seeming distant.
Meng Shulan: "It's still about my sister and my brother-in-law."
She sighed, looked at the wheat field with green buds sprouting on the roadside, and said silently: "I feel that something is going to happen between them, most likely this week. But you know, I'm in school, and I don't know anything without anyone notifying me."
This was the case in the previous life. Everyone felt that it was useless for her to know about this kind of thing, and it would only confuse her and affect her studies.
So, even though her brother who was far away in the city had returned, she was still kept in the dark.
Gu Hansong: "What do you think will happen?"
Meng Shulan shook her head. “It’s hard to say right now.” It was too complicated and too frustrating, and she didn’t want to talk about it.
You ask people for help but don't explain the situation clearly.
Gu Hansong turned around to take a look.
In the cold winter wind, she wore a thick blue plaid cotton jacket, her fair face buried in a bright red scarf, her brows slightly furrowed, with an indescribable sadness in her expression.
Gu Hansong didn't ask any more questions and just said, "Okay, I got it."
Meng Shulan: "Thank you."
When her family was unable to help, he was the only one she could rely on.
For the rest of the journey, Gu Hansong drove the car silently, while Meng Shulan looked at her cheat sheet and didn't talk about those things anymore.
Just when I was approaching the town, I happened to run into my brother-in-law Huang Jialin.
Huang Jialin was riding a bicycle and stopped to talk to Meng Shulan when he saw her.
"Going to school, have you brought everything? Do you have enough living expenses?"
As he said this, he was about to take out his wallet.
In his previous life, Huang Jialin would do the same when he occasionally met him on the way to school.
At that time, Meng Shulan was particularly happy, happy that her sister could find such a gentle, elegant, knowledgeable and polite husband.
But now, she only felt disgusted, thinking that this person was too hypocritical and disgusting.
Meng Shulan: "No need, I have them all."
In front, Gu Hansong heard her say this and whipped the carriage to drive away.
So, by the time Huang Jialin took out the money, the mule cart had already left.
Looking at the mule cart going away and the person sitting on the back rail without even looking at him, Huang Jialin frowned.
Why did it feel like Meng Shulan's attitude towards him suddenly became cold?
It should be something in the morning...
Huang Jialin didn't think much about it.
The other side.
Meng Shulan continued to read her little notebook. As for Huang Jialin, she was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Anyway, she will convince her family to support her sister's divorce no matter what in this life. Before long, that person will have nothing to do with their family anymore, so why bother about it so much.
Gu Hansong looked back at Meng Shulan and asked, "Do you want to know what your brother-in-law said to his mother this morning?"
Meng Shulan: "What?"
Obviously she didn't understand.
Gu Hansong: "This morning, when you and Zhuang Bailu were about to quarrel, your brother-in-law said a few words to Zhuang Bailu, and then she left."
Meng Shulan was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and asked in disbelief, "You heard it? That's impossible. She didn't hear it when she was standing so close. How could this person hear it when he was seven or eight steps away?"
Is he a man of super hearing?
Gu Hansong: "I didn't hear it, but I observed some problems."
Since it concerns her sister, even though Gu Hansong extremely dislikes meddling in other people's affairs, he still decides to talk to her about it.
Gu Hansong: "Just tell me whether you want to listen or not."
Listen, why not?
The boss's observation skills are unmatched by ordinary people.
…
After returning to school, Meng Shulan went to the cafeteria to exchange a few meal tickets, and then carried her things back to the dormitory.
During the whole process, she was a little dazed. When a classmate she knew greeted her, she ignored him and just nodded at them.
Because I had chatted with Gu Hansong for a while at the town entrance, it was already quite late and everyone in the dormitory had returned.
Meng Shulan put down her bag and was about to take out the book when she heard someone say, "Shulan, you don't look well. It's okay. Everyone fails sometimes. Just work hard to catch up next time."
