Chapter 188 Acquiescence
That night, Gu Hansong had dinner at the Meng family before returning to the village.
Before leaving, Meng Shulan went out to see him off and thank him.
It was not to thank him for picking her up today, but to thank him for helping her sister find a store in the city in the past few days to open a wholesale department.
It turns out that he didn't accompany me to the county to take the preliminary exam because of this!
When Meng Shulan heard her sister talk about this during dinner, she was really moved.
This time when he returned from South City, he spent most of his time around his home, as if this return was possible because of her. How could Meng Shulan not be moved?
Gu Hansong said: "This is also something the town asked me to do."
In town?
You have so many things to do every day, how can the town invite you? He had clearly said before that he would express his feelings openly, why is he so shy again? Meng Shulan really wanted to hold his face and make him look at her.
But her father was still there, harnessing the donkey cart at the door, preparing to go back with Gu Hansong. How could Meng Shulan dare to do anything that crossed the line?
However, while her father was working with his head down, she secretly reached out and pinched his waist.
It is summer now, and everyone has changed into thin clothes recently.
Meng Shulan's pinch failed to twist the flesh, but instead made herself embarrassed.
This guy’s waist is so strong, and it’s warm and hurts my hands.
Gu Hansong looked at her in surprise, "What?"
Meng Shulan: "Nothing, I just want to pinch you."
She spoke the last sentence very quietly, and you almost had to lip-sync to understand her.
Gu Hansong raised his eyebrows. Although he didn't understand why she wanted to pinch him, he still obediently picked up her hand and placed it directly on his waist.
"Pinch it."
Meng Shulan: “…”
This person is very brave. Her father is still alive, yet she dares to do such ambiguous actions.
Meng Shulan glared at him and quickly withdrew her hand.
If there was no one around, to be honest she wouldn't mind taking the opportunity to touch him.
The two have been dating, openly and secretly, for several months combined, but because they are both too busy, they have no chance to spend time together, and apart from holding hands, they have not taken any further intimate actions.
Gu Hansong smiled and said, "When you go into the city tomorrow morning, remember to bring your study notes with you."
Tomorrow morning, Gu Hansong will take her to the city to visit the teacher.
If there are no problems, Meng Shulan's change of direction is almost confirmed.
That day, when she told her family that she planned to apply to a university majoring in foreign languages, her family members raised questions, but after Meng Shulan's patient explanation, everyone thought it was a good idea.
Indeed, now that the country is open, they will not only have to do business with their own people, but also sell their products abroad, so they will definitely need talents in translation.
Now that my daughter has chosen this direction, after she graduates she will be a talent that all units will be vying for. She may even be able to study abroad, which is much more glorious than being a teacher in an ordinary unit.
Okay, okay, I’ll learn a foreign language. If I can’t do it this year, I can try again next year.
It's normal to take the college entrance examination three or four times.
Of course Meng Shulan didn't want to come again, she still had some confidence.
"I see."
At this time, Meng Fude's car was harnessed, Gu Hansong got in, Meng Shulan gave a few instructions and watched the car leave.
The next day, Meng Shoulan got up early because she had to go into the city.
After breakfast, she packed her schoolbag and Gu Hansong came over on his bike.
He Jinqiu greeted him warmly and asked him if he had had breakfast.
Gu Hansong has eaten.
So He Jinqiu urged her daughter to hurry up.
Meng Shulan felt that after the preliminary exam, her mother became more relaxed about their relationship and was no longer as secretive as before.
In fact, the Meng family members were not here for the pre-examination, but because Meng Shulan wanted to take the foreign language major exam. It was Gu Hansong who made the connection, and they would need his help later.
He Jinqiu thought, since it has come to this, just accept it.
In the past, she was afraid that her daughter’s relationship would affect her studies, but now it seems that is not the case.
After my daughter has been with Gu Hansong, her horizons have broadened a lot compared to before. I feel like she has been influenced by him. This result is positive and not bad.
In this case, it would be inappropriate for me to continue to control the two of them.
People have helped and worked so hard for their family, so they also want results.
Meng Shulan quickly went out with Gu Hansong.
The two of them arrived at the station at just the right time.
After getting in the car, Meng Shulan also talked about today's arrangements.
After meeting with her teacher and finishing her study matters, she still had to go to her brother and sister-in-law's workplace.
My brother sent a telegram back some time ago. He was busy with training in the past six months and could not leave, but he was very concerned about the family business and Meng Shulan's studies. He asked the family to go to the city to have a meal with him and learn about the current situation here.
It just so happened that Meng Shulan was going into the city today, so this task was given to her.
Meng Shulan: "I sent a telegram two days ago. My brother will definitely be here today. So, come with me."
Meng Shulan’s idea is very simple. Her relationship with Gu Hansong is now tacitly acknowledged by everyone here, but her brother and sister-in-law don’t know about it yet.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, she took her people over for dinner and made their relationship public, to avoid her brother telling people that she had kept it a secret and everyone in the world would know about it.
Meng Shulan had no idea about what happened between Gu Hansong and her brother. She thought it was a simple matter. She was willing and her family agreed. Gu Hansong was so outstanding that her brother would definitely be happy for her.
Gu Hansong's eyes moved, "Okay."
When the car arrived in the city, Gu Hansong wanted to take Meng Shulan to take the bus to No. 5 Middle School, but Meng Shulan said they wanted to go to the mall first.
Since he is a teacher and it is his first time visiting, he must bring something with him. This is basic courtesy.
Gu Hansong took out a box of English black tea from the briefcase he was carrying.
"I prepared it before I came back. He likes to drink this and isn't interested in anything else."
Meng Shulan: "Then we have to buy some fruits or something to carry with us, otherwise it won't look good."
Gu Hansong nodded, "Okay."
The two bought some seasonal fruits at a grocery store near the station and then went to No. 5 Middle School.
Gu Hansong had just been to the city yesterday, and had apparently told us in advance that the teacher surnamed Fu had come home waiting for the two of them.
Seeing Gu Hansong take out the black tea, Fu Wei Bo pointed at Gu Hansong with some dissatisfaction, "You kid, you have so many little tricks. You only take out such a good thing now. If I don't accept it, will you drink this black tea by yourself?"
Seeing that Teacher Fu was a little angry, Meng Shulan was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say.
Gu Hansong smiled and said, "I will be leaving again in a few days, this time I will go to Hong Kong City. If you need it, I can send you another brand."
Teacher Fu's eyes lit up, "Yes, of course I don't need it, bring me as many as you can!"
