Chapter 221 Will You Marry Me?
Jiang Xian stepped forward and handed the gift to Tang You.
Tang You hurriedly took it, and when he saw what Jiang Xian and the others brought, he opened his mouth in shock.
Rice, white rice. Brother Jiang and Sister Gu actually still have rice?
"Brother Jiang, we can't accept this."
Tang You felt the gift in her hand was too hot, so she turned around and called her brother.
Tang Qian was helping to prepare ingredients for dinner. When he heard his sister calling him, he hurried over.
"Brother, Sister Gu and the others brought gifts."
Tang You couldn't make up his mind, so he had to let his brother and Uncle Chen take it.
"Sister Gu, please take your gifts back. We took the initiative to invite you this time, so how can we accept your gifts?"
How could Tang Qian dare to accept it? He hugged the gift in Tang You's arms and was about to return it to Gu Luan Liang Xu.
"Take it, and celebrate that you have a home."
Gu Luan didn't think of taking the gifts back and asked them to accept them quickly.
"Brother, Sister Gu brought not only dried chicken, but also several kilograms of rice."
Tang You came closer to Tang Qian and whispered.
"Rice?!"
Tang Qian failed to conceal his voice for a moment.
When Chen Liang and others in front of the wooden house heard it, they all looked over.
"We brought the rice to this island, and there isn't much left."
Gu Luan said casually.
Rice, which is precious to them, is nothing to her.
There are meat, seafood, vegetables and fruits on this island, but no staple food.
When someone invites you to dinner, you should always show some sincerity, so Gu Luan thought of bringing some rice.
If she had known it would cause such a reaction from them, she would have just taken something else.
"Ms. Gu, rice is so precious, you should take it back."
Although Chen Liang was very greedy for the rice, he didn't dare to accept it.
The reason why I invited Gu Luan and others here today is, firstly, to express my gratitude, and secondly, I think neighbors should get close to and understand each other so that they can get along better in the future.
Unexpectedly, Gu Luan came and brought such good things.
"I have the final say over my things. Stop talking nonsense, or I'll get angry."
Gu Luan didn't want to argue with them, so he frowned.
"Take it!"
Jiang Xian spoke calmly.
Since Gu Luan and the other person said this, no one was trying to refuse anymore.
"Please take your seats. The food is simple, please don't mind."
Zhao Zhanjiang greeted everyone with a smile.
This time, they put a lot of thought into entertaining Gu Luan and the other two.
Fish and shrimp found in the sea are stewed with coconut, eggs are fried with wild vegetables, and pheasant is roasted.
Three dishes would not be possible to serve if entertaining guests before the end of the world.
After the end of the world, it has become a top-notch dish.
Chen Liang and his friends hadn't eaten such delicious food for a long time. They endured hunger while the food was being cooked and didn't dare to look at it at all.
The three were invited to take a seat by the six people.
The tables and chairs are all made of wood, and are equally simple and rough.
Gu Luan did not despise and sat with Jiang Xian.
Tang You placed the wooden bowls and chopsticks they made themselves in front of Jiang Xian and Gu Luan, and poured them a glass of juice.
The juice is squeezed from a kind of round and juicy fruit on the island.
Gu Luan likes juice very much, but she doesn’t eat much.
"Sister Gu, how long have you been together with Brother Jiang?"
Tang You stared at Gu Luan and Jiang Xian with his bright eyes.
Although she had only known Gu Luan and Jiang Xian for a short time, she could see that they had a very good relationship.
Brother Jiang seems indifferent, but he is tender only to Sister Gu, and he only has eyes for her.
How nice it would be if she had such a good boyfriend!
Thinking of this, Tang You couldn't help but look in the direction of Liang Xu, then quickly looked back.
Liang Xu noticed that someone was looking at him, but when he wanted to look, he didn't see who was looking at him.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much and got to know each other again.
Gu Luan also understood the situation of several people.
The loving couple Chen Liang rescued Tang Qian and his friends. They went through countless hardships to get here.
Under the firelight, Gu Luan remained silent, listening to them chatting about the world and the past.
"The end of the world came suddenly. It's a pity that my family has dozens of acres of land. If we can harvest it, we will have enough to eat."
Chen Liang sighed and thought about the land he contracted in the countryside countless times.
The land is planted with food only. If we had known that the end of the world was coming, it would not have turned out like this.
"Brother Chen, don't even mention your land. My family's assets worth more than 1 billion have all been wasted."
Tang Qian was depressed. He thought about his glorious past and then about his present self.
"Tang Qian, I didn't expect your family is so rich?"
Zhao Zhanjiang smiled and joked, "If I had known you before the end of the world, I would have lent you some money."
As soon as Zhao Zhanjiang finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter.
Tang Qian nodded repeatedly, "If I could go back to before the end of the world, let alone lend you money, what's wrong with giving you money?"
Before the end of the world, Tang Qian had no concept of money.
At that time, his father realized that something was wrong. Although he stockpiled some supplies, he still had a large amount of money that he could not spend.
Because at that time, supplies had begun to become scarce and countless wealthy people were hoarding goods.
How can people like them with a net worth of over one billion compete with others? They can only pick up bargains and hoard things.
Furthermore, the country is also controlling the supply of materials and does not allow large-scale stockpiling in public for fear of causing riots.
"No matter how glorious it is before the end of the world, what does it matter? If we can survive the end of the world, that's what glory is!"
Liang Xu said with a smile.
Before the end of the world, his family had some assets, but in the end, they lost everything.
"yes!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone agreed.
"It's been less than a year since the apocalypse. I've eaten garbage, grass roots, and drank sewage. I can't believe I'm still alive today."
Zhao Zhanjiang's eyes were red, and Qi Suhua was comforting him.
No one spoke anymore. Thinking about themselves, they were no different.
Gu Luan drank the juice and said, "You are very lucky."
"Yeah, we are lucky. Cheers to our luck."
Chen Liang stood up, took a deep breath, and raised the cup in his hand.
Everyone stood up together, raised their glasses and clinked them.
Night slowly falls and the bright moon hangs high in the sky.
Tang You asked Gu Luan to go to the woods to find food tomorrow. Gu Luan did not refuse as it would be boring to have nothing to do.
The women made an appointment, and the men made an appointment with Jiang Xian to go hunting.
There are many wild animals on the island, and as long as you are not lazy, you will get something.
After the meal, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian walked home side by side.
Jiang Xian held her hand and walked with her in the moonlight.
The moonlight tonight is particularly beautiful, casting a layer of white mist on the ground.
Jiang Xian suddenly stopped more than ten meters away from the wooden house.
Gu Luan looked at him and met Jiang Xian's deep and beautiful eyes.
His eyes seemed magical, more beautiful than the stars, as if there was a starry sky in them.
Especially when he looks at you intently, it makes people addicted.
"What's wrong?"
Something was wrong with Jiang Xian tonight, Gu Luan asked him puzzledly.
Jiang Xian lowered his head slightly, and the side of his face was cast with a thin silver light by the moonlight.
At this time, his eyes were gentle and focused as he looked at Gu Luan quietly.
"Aluan, are you willing to marry me?"
A deep and mellow voice came out from Jiang Xian's mouth.
Gu Luan was stunned and his heart started beating faster.
