Wen Tang nodded and said, "Yes, I have someone I'm about to marry!"
Gu Shuhe showed a look of regret, "They were about to get married, but they broke up. It's quite a pity."
Wen Tang: "..."
Wen Tang was curious, "Shuhe, what do you think about getting married?"
Gu Shuhe took a feather duster and dusted the counter. "He's a good person, from a simple family background, and my parents are both pleasing to you... that's all."
"What about you?"
"And you?"
"I……"
"Anything close enough will do," the girl said with a heartless laugh.
"My mother said that as long as a person is suitable for living, that's enough."
"What if you don't like the other person?"
"If you don't like it, it means you don't like it. If you don't like it..." Gu Shuhe shook his head, "Then I don't agree."
Wen Tang immediately asked, "So do you like Shen Tingci?"
Gu Shuhe blushed. She clenched the feather duster and looked at the door. Seeing that there was no one outside, she said, "He is quite good-looking."
Wen Tang: "..."
"Sister, you are pretty too."
Gu Shuhe shook her head and said, "I'm not as pretty as my sister-in-law."
"How is that possible? You are really good-looking."
The male protagonist is a peerless beauty, and as the male protagonist's youngest sister, she must be a real beauty as well.
Gu Shuhe shook his head and said, "I'm not good-looking."
Wen Tang: Good, good, you are beautiful but don’t even realize it.
“If you are not good-looking, will the Shen Tingci family agree to your marriage?”
"Maybe their family is in a hurry to find a daughter-in-law!"
"After all, he's not young anymore."
Wen Tang: "..."
"You are right, but there is another most important reason. You are beautiful."
Gu Shuhe blushed again, "...Really?"
"Sister-in-law, if you...if you praise me, then I will believe it."
Wen Tang corrected her, "I'm not praising you, you're pretty too."
Gu Shuhe touched his face and said, "I still think my sister-in-law is pretty."
After Gu Shuhe finished speaking, he whispered to his sister-in-law, "Actually, my mother had introduced my brother to many girls, but he didn't agree to any of them."
"But that time, he agreed to it right away. I know he agreed because you are pretty."
"He has seen a lot of people?"
Gu Shuhe nodded, but then shook his head, dusting quickly with the feather duster in his hand, "Yes...my mother asked someone to introduce him, brother, brother, he only saw the photo. He rarely comes back, so I haven't seen him in person."
"Oh~"
Gu Shuhe immediately nodded and assured, "It's true!"
Wen Tang patted her shoulder and said, "I believe you."
Gu Shuhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Tang then said, "I want to go back..."
Gu Shuhe said, "Sister-in-law, why don't you stay here for one night? My bed can sleep two people."
Wen Tang shook his head. "I have something to do tomorrow."
"Shuhe, if you suffer any injustice here, you must tell us."
Gu Shuhe nodded.
"Also, if you're unhappy working here, you should say so."
Gu Shuhe nodded again.
Wen Tang scratched his head and decided to make things clear, "That Shen Tingci...he, he hasn't given up on you and is still interested in you."
"You have to decide for yourself whether this matter with him is appropriate or not. You must carefully consider it."
"On the day I go to Hai City, if I have time, I will come to see you when I pass by here. If not, I will come back to see you next time."
"You must take care of yourself here."
Gu Shuhe nodded blankly.
Wen Tang had been gone for a long time, but she was still in a daze.
She thought that the matter between her and Shen Tingci was over as her family disagreed, but she didn't expect...
When Gu Shuhe was about to get off work, Shen Tingyu came to the supply and marketing cooperative.
As soon as Shen Tingyu entered the door, he shouted, "Sister, I'll get the soy sauce."
Gu Shuhe looked at Shen Tingyu, who was obviously a few years older than him, and said embarrassedly, "Comrade, you should be older than me, so don't call me sister."
She pointed to where the soy sauce was and asked, "Are you from the county committee?"
"Here, the soy sauce that your Minister Shen ordered."
"Five dollars."
Gu Shuhe said that he shouldn't call her sister. Shen Tingyu touched his face and couldn't explain for a moment, but he still smiled and paid the money. Following Gu Shuhe's words, he said, "Yes, I also work in the county party committee next door. My name is Tingyu, and you can also call me Ayu."
"Is your last name Ting?"
"This surname is so niche!"
“It sounds pretty good.”
Shen Tingyu: "..."
"No, my last name is Shen," he said a little embarrassedly.
He didn't dare to say that he was Shen Tingci's brother, for fear that Gu Shuhe would be embarrassed, and also for fear that Gu Shuhe would guess it because of his surname, so he only said his first name and not his surname. He didn't expect that he would be embarrassed.
He said his last name was Shen. Gu Shuhe looked at his appearance again and guessed it, "You are Comrade Shen's younger brother, right?"
“Ah, yes,” Shen Tingyu touched the back of his head and continued to feel embarrassed.
Gu Shuhe's expression didn't change much, he just said casually, "You look quite similar to Comrade Shen."
Shen Tingyu felt even more embarrassed and thought his behavior was laughable.
In fact, Gu Shuhe only felt that they looked alike after looking carefully, and didn't notice it at first glance.
The reason she said, "You two look alike" was just to imitate an adult's greeting.
When her mother and her eldest sister praise others, they often say, "You two look alike."
No matter whether they are sisters, brothers, mother and son, or mother and daughter, after saying this, the other person will smile happily.
After the praise, Gu Shuhe didn't want to talk anymore.
She looked straight ahead, watching the sunset in front of the door, waiting to get off work.
