Chapter 129 Stargazing
After Xu Hai finished all the questions, Gu Fei carefully corrected them and gave the results.
He could only answer two out of five questions, and they were the easiest ones in junior high school.
"Your foundation is indeed a bit weak, but there is still more than a year before the college entrance examination, so you can make up for it." Gu Fei patted him on the shoulder and said.
This child's grades are below average in the class, but he should be able to improve with some tutoring.
"How to make up for it?" Xu Haitian asked honestly.
Some students in the class go home for tutoring on weekends, but he doesn't even have time to do his homework, so he may be able to make up for it.
Gu Fei said, "I'll teach you."
"Sister Gu, you can do it?" Xu Hai's eyes were full of surprise at this moment.
After he asked this question, Gu Fei was a little uncertain. She said, "I just think I can."
"Then I'll have to trouble you to teach me from now on."
"Well, take a nap after finishing these questions."
The afternoon passed quickly. When Xu Hai woke up from his nap, he looked at the time and found it was already four o'clock. He thought that the vegetables in the vegetable garden needed to be watered, so he got up from the bed, left the room, drank a bowl of porridge, packed up his work and went to the vegetable garden.
"I'll go with you." The moment he stepped out of the door, Gu Fei came out and said, "I'll go and help too."
"Don't worry, sister. You can just rest at home." Xu Hai quickly shook his head to refuse.
But Gu Fei said, "I have been living here for free for more than a week. It is time for me to help. I am almost well now and can help now."
But Xu Hai had no choice but to agree to let her come along. On the way to the vegetable field, they met the aunts and mothers in the village. When they saw Gu Fei behind Xu Hai, all of them fixed their eyes on her.
"Hello, Aunt Li and Aunt Wang." Xu Hai greeted them warmly when he saw them. These people helped him a lot in his daily life.
"Xiao Xu, go get some work."
"right."
"Who is this?"
Xu Hai saw that the person she was referring to was Gu Fei, so he smiled and said, "I met him on the reef that night when I was out at sea, and I brought him back to treat him."
"Hello, my name is Gu Fei."
"Hello, hello."
After a few pleasantries, he left, and they continued to talk behind him.
"This girl is so pretty, with such fair and delicate skin, she looks like a city girl."
"The ring on her hand is beautiful. It looks like she is married."
When they got to the fields, Gu Fei saw many people working downstairs, so she asked, "Are you all working at this time?"
"Yes and no. Some work all day to pick vegetables and then go home to cook. Some are like us."
Walking to the vegetable field, Xu Hai weeded the field, picked the vegetables to be eaten today and tomorrow, and then started to fetch water to water the field.
"I'll help you." The two of them came over carrying a bucket of water to water the vegetables.
Life here is very comfortable and leisurely. The village is a bit far from City B. It takes more than two hours by car, and it takes an hour if you go there by sea.
It's far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and there are not so many troubles here.
"After watering the vegetables in the field, I took the vegetables and carried the bucket back home."
After returning, Xu Hai started washing the vegetables and cleaning the seafood he had caught today. He handled the seafood very quickly and efficiently.
Gu Fei helped him. Although he could cook, the food he made was not as good as his.
Moreover, when Xu Hai came back that day and saw her cooking, he was so scared that he threw everything aside and strode into the kitchen. He snatched her shovel and told her to sit outside.
Now Gu Fei just helped him, and soon the three dishes were served on the table.
Today's food is still as delicious as before. "You cook deliciously. When did you start cooking?" Gu Fei asked as he put a shrimp in the bowl.
“I started cooking when I was seven.”
This shocked Gu Fei particularly. He had to cook for himself at the age of seven?
"Why so early?" Gu Fei picked up the shrimps in the bowl with his slender and beautiful hands and began to peel them. He put the first one he peeled in Xu Hai's bowl and said, "Eat. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's nothing. Children from poor families have to take care of themselves early. It's not hard at all." Xu Hai didn't think it was a big deal. After his mother passed away, his grandmother had to rely on him because of her unsteady legs and feet.
My cooking skills have gradually improved over the years, and my father said that it is easier for a man who can cook to find a wife.
When grandma couldn't get out of bed, all the big and small things in the family fell on him, and he gradually got used to it.
Gu Fei lay in bed unable to sleep at night. After tossing and turning, he finally sat up, walked to Xu Hai's door and knocked.
"Are you asleep?"
Someone inside quickly responded, "What's wrong, Sister Gu?"
"I can't sleep." Gu Fei looked at him and said calmly.
"Does your head hurt?" Xu Hai asked worriedly.
Gu Fei shook his head but couldn't fall asleep.
"Then I'll take you to see the stars." After changing her shoes, she came out with a flashlight, "Sister Gu, you should also change your shoes and bring a coat."
"Let me find it for you, you don't have a coat." Then he ran inside and rummaged through the drawers to find a coat that he rarely wore.
"It's cooler near the sea at night, and it's easy to catch a cold."
"Oh." After changing shoes, the two walked for about ten minutes to the beach. He skillfully led Gu Fei along the path.
After arriving at the beach, we found a rock and climbed up to sit down. This was a great location. Not only could we see the twinkling stars in the sky, but we could also see the neon bridge across the sea.
When the wind blew at night, the waves hit the beach and made a sound. The insects were chirping, but no one spoke. Everyone just looked at the stars in the sky quietly.
"Do you come here often?"
"Well, after grandma passed away, I often came here to look at the stars." Xu Hai nodded. He knew that once people left, they would never come back, but he still thought about what the old people in the village said.
When people die, they return to heaven, and they turn into stars to protect their still living children.
So every time I miss my grandma, I come here to look at the stars.
Gu Fei noticed that he was a little unhappy, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I'll watch it with you in the future."
"How is that possible? When Sister Gu recovers her memory, you should go back to find your relatives. They will be sad when you are not around." Xu Hai shook his head. He didn't need Sister Gu to watch with him. He just wanted her to get better soon so he could go home earlier.
"But here..." She pointed at her head and looked at his stunned face, "I don't remember anything at all."
"One day, it will happen, just not now," Xu Hai said.
The two of them looked at the stars for a long time and chatted for a long time.
"Sister Gu, are you married?" Xu Hai asked, looking at the special and unique ring on her hand.
Gu Fei's eyes were also on the ring on her left ring finger. She should be married.
