Chapter 131: Desperately Wanting to Return to the Army to File a Marriage Report
Gu Wanxing stopped only when she ran to the intersection. Her heart was beating very fast. She didn't know if it was because of running or for some other reason, but her heartbeat was abnormally accelerated.
She held onto the electric pole, trying to calm her restless heart, and looked secretly to the south. A man with long legs was walking towards her from the darkness, like a god descending from the sky.
Gu Wanxing's eyes seemed to be burned. He immediately looked away and walked straight into the alley.
This time she didn't run away, and Fu Zheng quickly caught up with her.
"What are you running for? Huh?"
Fu Zheng grabbed her hand directly and domineeringly, with a hint of charm in the rising tone of his voice.
Gu Wanxing struggled a few times but couldn't break free, so she simply let him hold her hand.
"Who ran? It's you who walked slowly." She said unhappily. Anyway, she didn't run.
"Is it..." Fu Zheng wanted to say something to tease her, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by an auntie who came out of the door.
"Welcome to the Star? How did Emma come back from there?"
The man squinted his eyes and took a closer look, which frightened Gu Wanxing so much that he hurriedly pulled his hand away.
Then he smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, I came back from the west today."
In the darkness, the woman curled her lips and looked at Fu Zheng again, only to see that he had no intention of greeting her.
After looking at it for a while, he didn't say anything else, but turned north into the alley while eating a cucumber.
Gu Wanxing finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling somewhat guilty.
Just as she relaxed, Fu Zheng's big hand grabbed her hand again.
She glanced at Fu Zheng and asked, "Are you itching to do something?"
"Yeah." Fu Zheng looked straight ahead and replied calmly, but he didn't let go of his hand.
"This is the village, we can't do this."
"I know, I'm just happy." Fu Zheng felt that he was probably poisoned, poisoned by the little woman in front of him. He used to be very good at hiding his emotions, but in front of her, he couldn't do it at all.
Fortunately, no one came out, otherwise Gu Wanxing would definitely have to shake off his hand.
Fu Zheng felt very happy. The thing he had been insisting on finally got the result he wanted. The person he loved was right next to him. This feeling was something he had never experienced before.
The feeling of swelling in his chest and the slight tingling in his heart were all firsts in his life.
Now he was extremely conflicted and urgently wanted to go back to the army to report his marriage, but he didn't want to leave her, not even for a moment.
Gu Wanxing didn't know what he was thinking, so when she got home she shook his hand off.
"Come inside and eat before you leave. I'm sure your mom and sister will have finished eating by the time you get home. It's already so late."
Whenever she thought of the cold and soft touch of her lips just now, she felt embarrassed to look up at the person in front of her, so she kept her head down when speaking.
Fu Zheng lowered his eyes and looked at her, his heart suddenly softening.
"good."
"Then let's go."
Gu Wanxing entered the yard, and Gu Tianming happened to come out again to check: "Where have you been? Why are all your goods wet?"
"Oh, we went to the west to do some business."
"Uncle."
Fu Zheng called out politely.
Gu Tianming then looked at the person behind his daughter: "You're here, it's a good time to eat. Let's eat first and then leave."
After saying that, the three of them entered the house one after another.
Today, Gu Tianming fried scrambled eggs with cucumber slices and added some black fungus, which his daughter likes, and some steamed eggplant with garlic.
He didn't expect Fu Zheng to come, so he quietly went into the kitchen again, ready to prepare two more dishes.
Seeing this, Gu Wanxing went back to the bedroom. When she came out, she was holding a sausage as big as an adult's arm. She bought it from the newly opened shopping mall in the city some time ago.
This big ham is only two dollars and fifty cents now, so she bought ten.
It has been in the space all the time, and it came in handy today.
Fu Zheng raised his eyebrows when he saw the red object in her hand, remembering their trip to the city together and her big shopping trip in that mall.
I bought two large baskets. Thinking about this, I thought about the passbook in my pocket. I should be able to give it away this time.
In the kitchen.
"Cut this, it's very hot, don't bother with it anymore." Gu Wanxing said as he put the sausage on the chopping board.
Gu Tianming picked up the big thick ham and examined it carefully.
"Is this a sausage? Why is it so big?"
"It's a new variety. You can slice it up. If you feel like moving, go pick a few peppers in the backyard and stir-fry them. If you don't feel like moving, just eat it like this."
Gu Tianming pointed to a plate on the side and said, "I've picked some peppers to dip in the sauce. We don't have any soybean paste at home. Go to your aunt's house and ask for a bowl of soybean paste. I'll pick some lettuce and cucumbers. That'll make four dishes."
Fu Zheng listened to the whole thing in the living room. The kitchen was a bit small, so he opened the curtain at the door, poked his head in and said, "Uncle, can I help you?"
"No, it's very hot. You should take a rest." Gu Tianming really likes Fu Zheng. He smiles whenever he sees him.
"Go get some sauce."
Under his father's urging, Gu Wanxing had to take an empty bowl and leave the kitchen.
The two passed each other, and Fu Zheng playfully touched the back of her left hand with his little finger.
This made Gu Wanxing glare at him angrily.
"Behave yourself." she said angrily.
After saying that, she walked to the pile of clothes that her father had sorted out, picked up two dresses from the ground, picked them up and went out.
This soybean paste, like sauerkraut, is something that every household prepares every year. But from the moment Sun Huandi entered their house, the sauerkraut jar was turned upside down at the foot of the wall.
There was no such thing as Dajiang. She had no idea how they had been doing when she was not back.
But now, she is back home and can only try not to go to other people's homes to ask for food.
They were all neighbors, so it was hard for her to refuse, but she couldn't just take it for free without knowing what was good for her.
Gu Qingqing's home is just behind her house.
When she was a child, she would lie on the wall in the backyard and talk to her eldest cousin through the air.
I haven't seen Gu Lianlian for a long time. She is one year older than me and has two children.
When I arrived at my uncle's house, the door was not closed and I could vaguely hear Gu Qingqing's crisp voice coming from inside the house.
But there were other people chatting in the yard.
"aunt--"
When Gu Wanxing entered the yard, he saw the eldest aunt chatting with the second aunt, and Gu Minghui's wife Zhao Liqiu was washing clothes by the well.
Gu Mingqi's wife Xu Hua was standing in front of her, talking excitedly.
Her arrival successfully attracted the attention of the two.
"Wanxing, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"
When Zhao Liqiu saw who it was, he immediately stood up, shook the water off his hands, and greeted him with a kind smile.
"My dad asked me to come here and get a bowl of sauce to dip in pickled vegetables."
Hearing this, Zhao Liqiu wiped his hands on himself and took the bowl from her hand: "Come, I'll dig it out for you. You should get a smaller basin, the bowl is too small."
"Second Aunt." Gu Wanxing first called out to Xu Hua, then smiled and said, "How could that be? This is embarrassing enough."
"It's okay. If your aunt's house doesn't have any, just go dig them up at my house. I went to the fields last year and still haven't eaten them all. They're delicious."
Xu Hua also said with a smile.
"Next year I'll learn to do it myself. I can't always beg for food everywhere. By the way, Aunt, I have a batch of goods that got wet in the river. They're all new. I'll give you one to try. If it fits, go get a few more. I don't know what size you wear."
This is what Zhao Liqiu heard when he came out of the west room.
My fondness for this niece immediately increased. This child is indeed more capable than her father and stepmother.
She didn't even have the courage to tell the child in front of him that Sun Huandi had been eating her sauce for years and had never given her even a pound of soybeans.
