"And Ruoruo has protested to me many times. She said that if this drags on, she won't be with me anymore."
"If we delay any longer, she will have difficulty giving birth."
"She even asked if our family deliberately didn't want her in."
Chen Ying felt overwhelmed and had a headache after hearing this. "She is the one who has so many problems!"
"You two are already engaged, everyone knows it. What's wrong with delaying the wedding for two years?"
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go see your brother!" Then he stuffed all the snacks in his hand to Shen Tingyu.
Before leaving, he even reminded her, "Leave some for your sister, don't give it all to others."
"Okay, I understand."
When Chen Ying arrived at Shen Tingci's office, Shen Tingci was lowering his head to handle official business.
Seeing the person coming in, Shen Tingci frowned "Why are you here at this time?"
"Can't I come over and take a look?" Chen Ying sat down on the sofa and put down the handbag in her hand.
Someone soon brought tea over from outside.
Shen Tingci lowered his head again and continued to look at the documents in his hand. “This is not home. If you have nothing to do, sit for a while and go back quickly.”
Chen Ying was drinking the tea in her hand and got angry when she heard this. "If I wasn't here for your business, would you think I was happy to come?"
Shen Tingci paused the pen in his hand.
Chen Ying drank tea and told him, "I've been to the supply and marketing cooperative."
Shen Tingci frowned “What are you doing there?”
"Shouldn't I help you check it?"
This time, before Shen Tingci could speak, she said, “I think she is a pretty obedient girl.”
"Then what?" Shen Tingci asked.
"What's the big deal? If you marry her, we have no objection."
Shen Tingci lowered his head to correct the documents again, "I won't argue with you if I have any opinions."
"Go home if you have nothing to do. I'm busy here."
Chen Ying wanted to say something, but when she saw Shen Tingci busy with his work, she put down her teacup and stood up. "Then I'll go back. If it's appropriate, you can take her back for dinner."
Shen Tingci didn't even say a word this time.
Because he was speechless.
After Chen Ying left, Shen Tingci got up, walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside, and lit a cigarette.
Sadness cannot dissipate with the smoke, it can only take away some fatigue.
After finishing a cigarette, he pinched his nose and sat back at his desk to process documents.
During the lunch break at noon, when everyone else was eating, he was still buried in a pile of documents.
Zhang Guang brought the meal back from the cafeteria.
Shen Tingci finished his meal in the office without taking a break. When the sun was at its hottest outside, he came out of the office.
He walked to the supply and marketing cooperative under the scorching sun.
Gu Shuhe was currently lying on the counter, supporting his face with his hands, his head nodding.
Shen Tingci stood at the door and watched, and for a moment he didn't dare to take another step forward.
The corners of his tightly pursed lips softened.
Gu Shuhe was lying on the counter, her head nodding. She couldn't hold on any longer and almost hit her head on the counter. She woke up immediately from her drowsiness.
Seeing that she was almost bumped, Shen Tingci strode into the supply and marketing cooperative, so Gu Shuhe saw him as soon as she looked up.
Seeing someone coming to buy something, Gu Shuhe immediately stood up and wiped the corner of his mouth, fearing that he had drooled while taking a nap.
"Or a pack of cigarettes?"
"Ah, yes!" Shen Tingci said and began to feel his pocket.
He didn't come to buy cigarettes today, he just came to see her.
Handing the cigarette to Shen Tingci, Gu Shuhe remembered something and turned to take out the snacks that Chen Ying left for her in the morning from under the cabinet. "Comrade Shen, this is what your mother left for me when she came to buy things this morning. There are too many, so I have to trouble you to help take them back."
Shen Tingci looked at the bag of snacks, then at the pure-looking Gu Shuhe, his eyes slightly darkened, "If Comrade Gu wants to return these things, I'm afraid he will have to return them himself. I don't like to do these things for others."
Gu Shuhe withdrew his hand, "Oh, so that's it!"
Shen Tingci was waiting for her next words!
As a result, after Gu Shuhe put the things back, he continued to sit there and began to doze off with his chin in his hand.
It's the hottest time of summer, and it's very easy to fall asleep at noon.
After just a moment, while Shen Tingci was still there, Gu Shuhe started nodding his head again.
Shen Tingci just stood there and watched. He was very curious about how such a pure person could have not been abducted.
She dozed off, but Shen Tingci didn't leave. He just stood there, and he opened the cigarette.
He took out the cigarettes from the box and put them back, put them back and took them out again, over and over again.
Gu Shuhe dozed off and occasionally opened his eyes, seeing Shen Tingci opening a cigarette box. He thought it had only been a short while, and then his eyes fell sleepy again.
Her appearance directly made Shen Tingci chuckle.
Gu Shuhe didn't ask Shen Tingci for the Shen family's address to return the snacks, but kept the snacks. She planned to take them home for Gu Juyuan and Zhong Meixian on her next vacation. After all, there was nothing delicious in the countryside.
"Knock knock," Shen Ting knocked on the counter when he left. Gu Shuhe was driven away from his sleepiness. When he opened his eyes, a man just walked into the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something.
And Shen Tingci just turned around and left with the cigarette.
It was as if he really was just there to buy cigarettes.
After two months of contact, Shen Tingci discovered that Gu Shuhe was very simple and had her own set of thoughts in her mind. If you didn't tell her something directly, she wouldn't understand.
For example, Shen Tingci gave her two movie tickets and said, "My colleagues gave them to me. I can't find anyone to watch the movie with. You can take them and watch it!"
Gu Shuhe immediately took a step back and told him, "I don't have anyone to watch it with me, so give it to someone else!"
Before Shen Tingci could finish the sentence "Can I accompany you?", he heard Gu Shuhe say, "You can also sell it to someone else. It can be sold at a lower price."
Shen Tingci: This is really a practical suggestion.
He was helpless and said, "You can sell it!"
Gu Shuhe's eyes lit up. "Is this... okay?"
She took the ticket and thanked Shen Tingci happily, "Thank you!"
Then she praised him, "Your family is so generous!"
Because the snacks Chen Ying casually gave her were just a small bag, and Shen Tingci was willing to leave the unwanted movie tickets to her to sell for money.
Then he thought about it and felt embarrassed. "I'll give you the money after I sell it. Otherwise, it will be too embarrassing."
"Need not!"
"Thank you, thank you," Gu Shuhe kept thanking him and even bowed to him, but she didn't say "How about I treat you to a meal?"
But Shen Tingci also figured out a feasible way, that is, if you give Gu Shuhe something you say you don't want, she will want it and will not despise it.
Movie tickets, food, nice hats, shoes...
The second time Gu Shuhe came from home on vacation, he brought a jar of pickles for Shen Tingci.
Gu Shuhe told Zhong Meixian about the fact that Shen Tingci and Chen Ying were good people when he returned home on his second leave.
Gu Shuhe said that she met Shen Tingci and Chen Ying while working in the county town. She said that Shen Tingci worked in the county party committee and often went to the supply and marketing cooperative where she worked to buy things.
Chen Ying also went there and shared the food she bought.
Everything that Shen Tingci didn’t want, and everything that his sister didn’t want, was given to her.
