Chapter 53: What else haven’t I seen?
Gu Nan bought a lot of cold dishes, which the two of them couldn’t finish in one meal. They planned to put away the rest and heat it up to eat in the evening.
She asked Lin Jingzhe to pack up and she went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
But the detergent was used up, so she could only add some water to the bottle and barely wash the dishes clean.
There was not much water left in the water tank, so Gu Nan thought about going to the well to fetch some water. Just as he was looking for a bucket, the cell phone in his pocket rang.
Lin Layue sent her a video call.
She picked up the phone, and when Lin Layue saw the background, she asked, "Are you in the kitchen? Have you eaten?"
Gu Nan sat down on the small bench in front of the fire pit. "I'm done eating. How did the interview go this morning?"
Lin Layue said happily, "I passed. I have a life drawing class this afternoon. Professor Fu asked me to try a class to see the effect."
"Wow, I have classes in the afternoon, do you want to take off your clothes?"
Gu Nan's tone was exaggerated, but his smile was malicious.
Lin Layue immediately got the hint in her words, her face flushed, and her eyes wandered, "Sister, I'm outside now..."
Gu Nan raised an eyebrow, "What's going on outside? Is there anything I haven't seen?"
Lin Layue seemed to be suddenly strangled by the neck, and her voice was small and weak, "Someone..."
Suddenly, a mature and intellectual laugh sounded from the side. "Hello, can you lend me your boyfriend to draw a picture for the students? Don't worry, we won't take his clothes off without his permission."
Lin Layue covered her face.
Gu Nan: “…”
Lin Layue, you old fool, why didn’t you remind the person next to you earlier?
Good society is dead!
It’s all because the puppy was so easy to tease, she got carried away and even dared to flirt with him on the phone.
She put on a stern face and coughed lightly, trying to save her crumbling image. "Do you have something to say to Jingzhe? I'll give him the phone number, and you can talk to him..."
She turned her head and happened to see Lin Jingzhe standing by the door.
Lin Jingzhe was petrified on the spot, with the words "What haven't I seen" playing in 3D surround in his mind. His narrow, clear fox eyes were filled with dullness and embarrassment.
When he saw her looking at him, he quickly turned around and was about to leave with his crutches, looking flustered and embarrassed, as if he was trying to hide something.
Gu Nan looked at his back, which could almost be described as fleeing in panic: "..."
Damn, when did he come here? Why is he walking so silently?
She raised her butt in the air and then sat down again.
Seeing Gu Nan's strange expression, Lin Layue's face turned even redder. She said she would call her later and hung up the phone.
Gu Nan the groundhog held his head.
『Ah!!!』.jpgLin Layue, just wait and see how I’ll deal with you when I get back!
Human bottom lines are probably meant to be broken.
Gu Nan calmed down on the small bench for a while, then recovered to full health and went out to fetch water with a bucket.
By the way, he gave the phone to Lin Jingzhe and asked him to call Lin Layue.
This was the first time in Lin Jingzhe's life that he was so shocked. He kept groping around in the room, trying to calm down.
When she answered the phone, she avoided looking at Gu Nan at all.
It was not until Gu Nan walked a long way away that he relaxed his tense body and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he could seriously teach his brother about physiological knowledge and remind him to pay attention to safety, he was still shocked to hear from others that his brother had physical contact with a girl.
Given my brother's personality, this is probably why he felt comfortable letting Gu Nan pick him up and take him into the city.
However, in this relationship, my brother seems to be the one being manipulated.
Lin Jingzhe felt some inexplicable worries for no reason.
By the time Gu Nan fetched the water, Lin Jingzhe had already finished his phone call with Lin Layue.
"My brother said to send the chickens, ducks and other living things to Uncle Shoucai. I'll go and tell Uncle Shoucai." Lin Jingzhe returned the phone to Gu Nan, opened the guardrail and went to Lin Shoucai's house not far away.
After a while, Lin Shoucai came over and said, "Why are you giving me such a good chicken? I'll kill one for you and eat it tonight."
He went into the kitchen, got a knife and a bowl, rushed into the chicken coop, and caught one accurately. With one stroke of the knife, the fat old hen was dead.
Lin Shoucai moved quickly and efficiently. While bleeding, he arranged for Lin Jingzhe to go to the kitchen to boil water. Gu Nan helped to scald and pluck the hair, while Lin Shoucai was responsible for cutting open the belly and cleaning the internal organs.
In less than an hour, a chicken was cleaned and placed on the stove.
"How do you like to eat?" Gu Nan asked.
Lin Jingzhe likes to stir-fry it with rice wine, cinnamon, star anise, and lots of fresh chili peppers. It tastes fragrant and spicy.
But his cooking skills were not as good as Lin Layue's, and Gu Nan's skill in stir-frying vegetables did not seem very proficient either, so he said, "Let's stew it."
Gu Nan nodded, "Okay, since we can't finish it between the two of us, let's send another bowl to Uncle Shoucai. We can eat the remaining chicken soup tomorrow morning."
The sun at noon was getting hotter and hotter, and the heat was hard to dissipate. Lin Jingzhe closed the door lightly, and the two began to take a nap.
Gu Nan slept in Lin Layue's room, which was simply furnished with a bed, a cabinet and a desk, on which his middle school textbooks were neatly placed.
Gu Nan pulled out a Chinese textbook and spread it out. The blank spaces in the text were densely filled with notes. Some were appreciation of the text, and some were extracurricular expansions. The notes were detailed and organized. He also pulled out the physics and biology textbooks, and the same was true.
Lin Layue was able to get into university under such heavy pressure, and it turned out that she had a serious learning attitude as her foundation.
She put it back where it was and lay down on the bed.
The sheets and mat had just been changed, and there was a faint scent of laundry detergent. She closed her eyes and fell asleep in a short while.
She didn't know how much time had passed before she was awakened by the sudden chill.
When I opened my eyes, I found that the sky was dark and the wind was blowing hard outside. I didn't know when the window of the room was blown open, and the cold rain had wet a small area of the windowsill and the ground.
She rubbed her arms, got out of bed and closed the window.
I glanced at the time and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
The chicken stew is ready.
She walked out of the bedroom. The door to the main room was half open. The small door guard was blown by the wind and kept hitting the door, making a dull sound like banging on the door.
The rain suddenly got heavier, and the tiles on the roof made crackling sounds, which sounded like hail in winter.
Gu Nan walked over quickly and closed the door, then went to the kitchen to chop a chicken and make a fire.
She didn't know if it was because she wasn't skilled enough or the firewood was wet, but she tried to start the fire for a long time but it didn't light up.
I could only wake up Lin Jingzhe and make a fire.
In the blink of an eye, the sky seemed to have become even darker, and the darkness sank so low that it seemed as if it would collapse at any time.
Lin Jingzhe's door was closed. She knocked twice, but there was no response. She called out twice, but still no sound.
The huge lightning flashed like a coiled silver snake, illuminating the world with a pale and bright light, followed by a thunder that shook the earth and shook the mountains.
Gu Nan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
I pushed open Lin Jingzhe's door suddenly, but there was no trace of him in the room.
She panicked and shouted, "Lin Jingzhe!"
