On the way home, Jiang Yue thought Gu Ye would ask her about asking Lian Rongrong to make clothes, but Gu Ye did not ask.
Jiang Yue took the initiative to mention that she saw someone buying French fries during the day, "When I was buying vegetables today, I met a French fry seller in town."
"Oh?" Gu Ye raised his eyebrows, "Same as the ones you made?"
"It's different! It's not delicious at all! Not as delicious as what my mom makes!" Ningning quickly expressed her opinion.
"Did you buy it?" Gu Ye asked.
"That person sells it for ten cents, which is cheaper than what I sell, but it's really not done well. Maybe he didn't want to use enough oil, so he didn't fry it thoroughly." Jiang Yue actually expected that someone would follow suit, but she wasn't too surprised. She had many ways to make money in her mind. If this one didn't work out, she would try another one. If she could start her life over again, she would have plenty of opportunities to try.
After coming out of Lian Rongrong's house, Gu Ye didn't let Jiang Yue hold his arm, saying that it was not serious enough and that they should keep a distance of one to two meters.
Jiang Yue knew that people of this generation were conservative in their thinking. Even couples would not behave too intimately at home unless they were having a baby. Not to mention outside, they would be like old-fashioned people and would walk at a distance from each other for fear of being gossiped about if they walked too close.
But Jiang Yue is not from this era. When Gu Ye said that Jiang Yue was not serious enough, Jiang Yue deliberately kept a distance of eight feet from him and asked him with a stern face: "Is this serious enough?"
Gu Ye: "...Come here!"
"No way!" Jiang Yue rolled his hands into a bucket shape and placed them on his lips. "Comrade Gu Ye, let's walk like this when we go out from now on. Otherwise, it won't be serious enough!"
Gu Ye's face darkened. It turned out that if she didn't go against him for a day, she would not be Jiang Yue!
"Come here!" Gu Ye pulled Jiang Yue back to his side.
"Captain Gu, aren't you afraid that you're not serious enough?" Jiang Yue deliberately rubbed Gu Ye's arm.
Looking at her smug little face, Gu Ye snorted, still keeping a stern face, but this time, he did not let go of Jiang Yue's hand.
"I've let you kiss me there, and you still want to keep a distance from me?" Jiang Yue snorted.
Gu Ye heard Jiang Yue's mumbling and his face immediately turned green. "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"
"Gu Ye, you're blushing! Gu Ye, are you shy?" Jiang Yue walked in front of Gu Ye, deliberately staring at his handsome face, smiling.
At this moment, Gu Ye lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Yue's rosy little face. Her skin was delicate and fair, as if it could glow, and her beautiful pink lips were slightly pouting, as lovely as flower petals.
"I'm leaving first!" Jiang Yue suddenly shook off Gu Ye's hand, turned around and ran home.
Ning Ning saw this and broke away from Gu Ye, running after Jiang Yue, "Mom, wait for me!"
"Ningning is with dad. Mommy should go home and hide first. Ningning, come find me soon!" Jiang Yue turned around and smiled at Gu Ye, as bright as spring sunshine, and then ran away.
"Dad, hurry up!" Ningning urged Gu Ye hurriedly. She didn't know if she was afraid that Jiang Yue would hide and she wouldn't be able to find her. The little girl was very anxious.
The corner of Gu Ye's mouth curled up, and his eyes, like cold ponds, were now filled with a smile. He walked over, picked up Ningning, and followed Jiang Yue in big strides.
Not far away, Li Xiuxiu hid behind a big tree, staring at Gu Ye's figure infatuatedly. Li Hongying came out to take out the garbage and saw Li Xiuxiu standing behind the tree. She was immediately furious.
"You silly girl, what are you hiding here for every day when no one is around? You can't see so many things going on at home, right? And you run out and stay here for half a day. I told you to be lazy! I told you to be lazy! Wuniu has been crying for a long time, are you deaf and can't hear?" Li Hongying started to strangle Li Xiuxiu.
Li Xiuxiu subconsciously looked in Gu Ye's direction first, tears welling up in her eyes. She hoped that he could hear that she was being bullied and come to save her, but she also hoped that he couldn't hear it because she didn't want him to see her in such a miserable state.
"Who are you looking at with those eyes? Do you really hope that some captain will like you? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Do you still want to marry the captain?" Li Hongying followed Li Xiuxiu's gaze and saw Gu Ye's back. She immediately started to sneer and make indirect accusations.
Wang Cui, who was passing by, couldn't stand it any longer. "Li Hongying, you should be more kind-hearted! You scold your own sister so harshly. Who knows, Xiuxiu might marry a regiment leader in the future! There will be a time when you will beg her for help!"
"Oh, really? Then quickly introduce a regiment leader to us! As long as you can let our Xiuxiu marry a regiment leader, I will kowtow to you personally!" Li Hongying said with disdain, pouting her lips.
Wang Cui rolled her eyes and turned away, "You're crazy!"
If she could get to know an unmarried group leader, she would definitely introduce him to her own sister. Why would she let Li Hongying take advantage of him?
"Gu Ye doesn't even look at you, who are you showing this unrequited love to?" Li Hongying pouted at Wang Cui. Don't think she doesn't remember that last time when she helped Jiang Yue rush to her house to grab her meat, Wang Cui was the first to rush in!
Li Hongying pinched Li Xiuxiu again and scolded her with a stern face, "Tiantian only knows how to look around, do you think you can make Gu Ye fall in love with you? If you have the guts, make Gu Ye divorce and marry you!"
Wang Cui hadn't walked far when she heard Li Hongying scolding Li Xiuxiu. Her face suddenly changed, her pace quickened, and she ran home. She was crazy! Li Hongying was really crazy! She actually encouraged her sister to be a slut and destroy Gu Ye and Jiang Yue's marriage?
Even if she wasn't afraid of Jiang Yue causing trouble for her, didn't she care about Li Xiuxiu's reputation? How could Li Xiuxiu live her life if a young girl fell in love with a married man?
Li Xiuxiu was filled with shame and anger. She covered her face and ran home crying.
Gu Ye was only thinking about going home. Jiang Yue's last smile to him made him feel very excited. How could he pay attention to what was happening over there?
For the first time, Gu Ye was annoyed at how slowly it got dark!
At 8:30 in the evening, Jiang Yue and Ningning both finished their baths. Ningning lay on the bed reading comic books while Jiang Yue sat at the desk writing and drawing.
She heard Gu Ye walking back and forth in the main room, sometimes taking a drink of water from an enamel jug, sometimes opening the back door to go out, and sometimes repairing a bench in the yard with a hammer.
Jiang Yue's thoughts were interrupted several times. She stood by the window and shouted outside: "Gu Ye, can you please keep your voice down?"
After he finished speaking, there was indeed no sound outside, and then footsteps came from behind Jiang Yue.
"What are you writing?" Gu Ye asked, but his eyes glanced at Ningning lying on the bed. He thought to himself: Why isn't Ningning sleeping yet?
"Design a pattern." Jiang Yue handed the paper in her hand to Gu Ye. On the paper was a cartoon of a smiling pug. Turning over the next page, there was a picture of a panda doing the splits. Although they were simple drawings, they were lifelike and vivid on the paper.
Gu Ye looked through a few pictures and asked calmly, "I didn't know you could draw?"
"Well, I drew for fun when I was in school. I haven't drawn in many years." Jiang Yue continued to draw with his head down.
Gu Ye stood behind her, watching her skillfully draw the image of a little girl with just a few strokes. His black eyes narrowed involuntarily. This didn't look like she hadn't drawn for many years!
