Duan Xiaoping and Duan Chuncao's eyes lit up instantly, "Thank you, Auntie."

…

When Shen Man returned to the guesthouse again, Gu Qinglin happened to be standing at her door with two large meatballs and a bowl of porridge.

Seeing her coming over, he passed the things in his hand to Shen Man, "It's still hot."

"After we finish eating, I'll take you to the town to get familiar with it and buy some things."

"When I get back, I'll go take a look at those two houses. Once I find one, I can move in directly."

Shen Man took the big piece of meat and it was still warm when she touched it. This place had entered winter early and the weather outside was quite cold.

The canteen is not very close to the guesthouse, and it is not meal time at this time.

She looked up at the man's handsome face, took a bite of the big piece of meat in her hand, and blinked.

"Did you make this yourself this morning?"

Although it was a question, the familiar taste was revealed as soon as I took a bite.

Seeing that she had recognized him, Gu Qinglin smiled and said, "The meat in the cafeteria may not suit your taste. I have time today, so I made some."

Shen Man was a little curious, "Now that you mention it, I'm even more curious about what the meat in your cafeteria tastes like."

She is not a picky eater and will eat most things, but she also likes a few things.

Gu Qinglin raised his eyebrows. "There's some minced ginger in it. Are you sure you want to try it?"

"Then forget it." Shen Man was stunned for a moment, then shook her head quickly.

It's not that she hates eating ginger, she just hates putting minced ginger in meat.

Not many people knew about her little habit, and she remembered that she had never told Gu Qinglin about it. How did this person know it so clearly?

Shen Man's gaze fell on Gu Qinglin's face, clearly filled with confusion.

Gu Qinglin was silent for a moment, "It was Xiaobei who told me."

After these words, there was silence all around.

Since the two met again, no one has taken the initiative to mention the child, but in fact, they both know that not mentioning it does not mean forgetting, nor does it mean ignoring it.

It's just that for a moment, I don't want to face that fact again.

Shen Man's heart was filled with countless complex emotions, which kept rising and falling.

After a while, she said, "Tell me about what happened before Xiaobei left."

When she heard the news that day, she didn't ask any detailed questions. Now she thinks that if she had asked more questions, she would have remembered more about Xiaobei.

Gu Qinglin pursed his thin lips into a line, and after a moment's silence, he slowly spoke.

"That day I took him on the train where I first met him. When the train was about to leave the station, Xiaobei held my hand tightly and wouldn't let go. He told me a lot about you and what happened between him and you."

"Gradually, he disappeared leaning on my arms."

No one knew how confused he was at that moment. He even wanted to turn the entire train over just to find the child.

However, his strong rationality finally suppressed his madness, and he got on the train alone and returned to the army.

He also called Shen Man to tell her that Xiao Bei had returned.

Shen Man's eyes were slightly red. She raised her head, took a deep breath, and didn't mention it anymore.

Soon, breakfast was finished.

Gu Qinglin took Shen Man to the nearby town.

This town is not big, but it has everything you need, such as a supply and marketing cooperative, a state-owned hotel, and a photo studio.

Passing by the photo studio, Gu Qinglin paused and looked down at the woman beside him, "Let's go find two photos and send them to my parents."

Shen Man was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what photo he was talking about.

She looked at the clothes she was wearing, a heavy military coat, a red scarf around her neck, and two shiny black braids.

I haven't dressed up much, and I'm wearing too many clothes, so I look a little bloated.

She glared at the man and said, "You didn't even tell me in advance, so I didn't have time to clean up and stupidly followed you here."

Photos taken like this would make her, not to mention her future parents-in-law, even she herself would feel dissatisfied.

Gu Qinglin raised his eyebrows and chuckled, his eyes falling on Shen Man's pretty face, "I just remembered it, and besides, you look very beautiful today, they will like it when they see you."

This is the truth.

When a person is good-looking enough, no matter what they wear, it won't be much of a difference.

Shen Man's face is like this, and she has been dancing since she was a child. The temperament around her is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Even if you don't see her face, she is someone you can easily spot when she walks in the crowd.

Before meeting Shen Man, Gu Qinglin never felt that a woman's appearance could dazzle him.

Until he met Shen Man, especially when he learned that his future wife would be Shen Man.

He realized very clearly that he was just an ordinary man.

But when he thought that this was the fate of the two, it turned out unexpectedly that Shen Man was married, and he was not qualified to have such thoughts about her.

So he suppressed this thought, and everything he had originally had faded away.

Shen Man got divorced.

The thoughts that had been suppressed came to my mind again.

Fortunately, this time Ma got what he wanted.

Shen Man lowered her head and looked at her heavy clothes again, "Are you sure?"

"Well, very beautiful, I'm sure." Gu Qinglin nodded.

Shen Man thought about it and decided that it would be fine to take the photo today, as she would have to do it sooner or later anyway.

"Take it, let's go in."

There was only one photographer and one apprentice in the photo studio. It was very quiet inside, with almost no one around.

The two of them walked in, and the photographer smiled and said, "You are here to take wedding photos, right? You look so well-matched. I have been taking photos for many years, and I have never seen anyone who is more well-matched than you two."

"Let me go. I have good skills. I will definitely take beautiful photos of you two today."

Young couple?

Their current status... is indeed that of a newlywed couple.

Shen Man's face flushed slightly, and she looked at the man beside her consciously.

It just so happened that at this moment Gu Qinglin was also looking down at her, and their eye lines collided in the air. The air seemed to be quiet for a moment, and then returned to normal.

When taking the photo, under the guidance of the teacher, the two of them gradually got very close, almost touching each other when turning around, and even smelling each other's fragrance.

The man's body tensed unconsciously and his throat rolled slightly.

Shen Man didn't feel anything. She was very familiar with the camera. She even smiled skillfully with a smile on her face when the master took the photo.
