Volume 1 Chapter 34 Alone with Gu Tingxiao
Gu Tingxiao saw that she was really seated, then he pushed his foot and the bicycle started moving.
Gu Tong saw the handsome man and beautiful woman leaving, then he rode his bicycle home.
Gu Tingxiao rode very steadily along the way, but even so, the road was bumpy and Sheng Wanyan couldn't help feeling a little unstable sitting in the back, and her... butt hurt.
Gu Tingxiao stopped and turned to look at Sheng Wanyan: "The road ahead is a bit shaky, you grab my clothes."
Sheng Wanyan loosened her hand from under the stool. She had gripped it so hard that her fingertips turned slightly red.
When Gu Tingxiao saw this, his eyes darkened. Are your hands... so tender?
"No……"
"Wait until you fall."
Before Sheng Wanyan could say no, she was blocked by Gu Tingxiao's words.
"All right."
Sheng Wanyan didn't act pretentiously. She reached out and grabbed the clothes on both sides of his waist. Gu Tingxiao felt the slight touch on his waist, and his whole body stiffened and collapsed.
Looking closely, the tips of Gu Tingxiao's ears were slightly red, and Sheng Wanyan was surprised when she saw it.
People of this generation are too innocent, especially an innocent older bachelor.
Gu Tingxiao adjusted his breathing slightly and then continued to move forward on his bicycle.
When they arrived at the bottom of the tube building, Sheng Wanyan got out of the car and loosened his clothes. Only then did Gu Tingxiao breathe a sigh of relief.
Sheng Wanyan took the things down, Gu Tingxiao helped her lock the car, and took all the things in her hands over.
"I'll take some."
"I'm strong enough to lift it."
Seeing his serious expression, Sheng Wanyan had no choice but to withdraw her hand that was about to help.
The two of them went upstairs one after the other, and the whole Sheng family saw them coming in together.
She looked left and right, especially at Sheng's mother whose eyes seemed to be growing on her. If the situation allowed, she would have wanted to go forward and inquire about the situation immediately.
"Why did you two come back together?"
Sheng Wanze looked at Gu Tingxiao. There was something wrong with this guy!
"We met at the supply and marketing cooperative. He happened to be coming to my house, so we went together."
Mother Sheng welcomed him in warmly and poured Gu Tingxiao a cup of sugar water.
"You're here, why are you bringing so many things?"
Mother Sheng couldn't help muttering, and Gu Tingxiao tried to make his expression softer.
"To nourish my uncle, aunt, and the two elders."
Mother Sheng was also aware of the twists and turns. The child felt that he ate too much the last time he came for dinner, and he felt bad about it.
"It's good that you have the heart. Your presence will make your aunt happy."
"Stay for dinner tonight, and your aunt will make you braised pork."
Gu Tingxiao refused the invitation to stay for dinner. Sheng Wanze would go back to the army with him tomorrow, and the Sheng family would definitely need a family gathering.
If he stayed, it would definitely interfere with the family's time together.
"Aunt, my aunt has already cooked the meal. I will definitely come next time I have the chance."
"Why are you being so polite to your aunt, kid?"
Gu Tingxiao refused a few more times, and Sheng's mother stopped pestering him.
But I felt more satisfied with him in my heart. What a thoughtful and careful child!
It's just that her poor daughter was only interested in the pastries.
Sheng Wanyan felt the gaze of her mother while she was eating pastries. She looked over and saw her mother glaring at her.
Mother Sheng was furious. Looking at the greedy look on his face, she felt overwhelmed.
"Yan'er, go get a bucket of water from your brother and clean the bicycle."
Sheng Wanyan always felt that there was a hint of anger in Sheng's mother's tone, so she didn't dare to delay and hurried to fetch water.
Sheng Wanze took the bucket and asked her to go downstairs to find two rags.
Gu Tingxiao was pulled aside by Sheng's mother to chat for a long time, but Gu Tingxiao was still thinking about his aunt's instructions to give away the vanishing cream.
"Xiao Gu, don't accompany us elders. Why don't you go with us and have a chat with the young people?"
Grandma Sheng has lived to this age, how could she not see what Gu Tingxiao is thinking.
It was because she saw this that she asked Gu Tingxiao to have a good communication with Sheng Wanyan.
Gu Tingxiao is a mature and steady child with a delicate mind and considerate personality. He is a good child worthy of trust.
Isn't he better than any young man in this building?
"good."
Gu Tingxiao followed Sheng Wanyan out, and Grandma Sheng smiled and shook her head.
"Mom, why does Gu Tingxiao seem to be more enthusiastic than the last time he came?"
Mr. Sheng simply didn't understand. Last time he came, you asked questions and he answered them, but this time he even took the initiative to find topics to chat.
It's really strange.
Grandma Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to him. Did she want to tell you that someone else has set eyes on your daughter?
If this were said, I'm afraid Sheng's father would go downstairs and become a light bulb right now.
"It's no use telling you."
Seeing that Grandma Sheng was unwilling to say more, Father Sheng could only lower his head and defend himself.
"How can it be useless? I am at least the labor force of the family."
"What are you mumbling about? Bring me my cup."
Grandpa Sheng was too lazy to look at his silly son, so Father Sheng quickly went to pour him tea and water.
"Comrade Sheng Wanyan."
A deep male voice came from behind. Sheng Wanyan turned around and saw Gu Tingxiao walking down the stairs.
Gu Tingxiao put his hands in his pockets, holding the vanishing cream in his hands, and tightened his grip unconsciously.
"Comrade Sheng Wanyan, this is for you."
Sheng Wanyan looked at his big hand and blinked at the box of cream in his palm.
"The fish you cooked last time was delicious. This is a thank you gift."
Gu Tingxiao broke out in sweat on his forehead. He didn't know what was wrong with him at first. He only knew that he had no objection to Sheng Wanyan.
Although he had never been in love, he was not a teenager and he figured it out quickly.
From the first time he came to the Sheng family for dinner, he was attracted by this generous girl.
Later, when I went back and calmed down, Sheng Wanyan's face would unconsciously appear in my mind.
In the next few days, I couldn't help but think of her every time. Even a fool would know what was going on.
I had been thinking of taking the opportunity to come to Sheng's house today to take a look, but I didn't expect to meet him at the supply and marketing cooperative by chance.
However, seeing that Sheng Wanyan didn't seem familiar with him, he also knew that she had no interest in him.
I was too abrupt, but I didn't want to miss such a good girl.
At least she doesn't have a partner now, so I still have a chance.
If there is no object, then there is an opportunity. Backing off is not his style.
“It’s too expensive.”
Sheng Wanyan knew something about snow cream, which was a luxury item in the minds of women in this era.
There was also another kind, clam oil, packaged in shells, which she had seen on Grandma Sheng’s desk.
The elders prefer clam oil, which is cheaper and very easy to use.
Young people prefer snow cream, and the supply and marketing cooperatives would sell it for 1.5 yuan a box, which was a lot of money in that era.
