Chapter 71 Gifts and Growth
Le Xuanji and Hua Yingan were also very excited when they saw Gu Nanyan.
However, they did not dare to show it too obviously, fearing that Gu Nanyan would find it abrupt, so they sat outside and stared at Gu Nanyan without blinking.
After carefully looking her up and down and confirming that she was not injured and had no discomfort, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Le Xuanji opened her mouth to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her eyes turned red and tears fell instantly.
Woo woo woo, her Nanyan suffered!
"Silly girl." Gu Nanyan raised her hand and poked Le Xuanji's tears with her fingertips, "Why are you crying? Aren't you happy that I'm back?"
"Happy, happy!" Le Xuanji nodded quickly, then embarrassedly took out a tissue and wanted to wipe Gu Nanyan's hands, "Dirty, sorry, your hands are dirty."
"It's not dirty!" Gu Nanyan frowned, not allowing Le Xuanji to say that about her, "These are the most sincere and precious tears, they are your concern for me."
She put little Ruirui in Zhan's mother's arms, took out a tissue, and carefully wiped Le Xuanji's tears, "I should be the one who is sorry, it's me who was not careful enough, and mistakenly entered a dangerous situation, causing you all to worry about me."
Hearing this, Le Xuanji finally couldn't help it, threw herself on Gu Nanyan's knees, and cried loudly.
She wanted to vent all the worries and fears for many days.
Hua Ying'an's eyes were also wet, but she was more rational and stronger, and would never shed tears easily.
She tilted her head slightly and blinked, trying to blink away her tears.
Hua Ying'an thought no one would notice her because she was sitting the farthest away from Gu Nanyan. As a result, when she lowered her head, she met Gu Nanyan's smiling eyes.
These were a pair of extremely beautiful and extremely gentle eyes.
There was a quiet and far-reaching wisdom, as well as a warm and friendly sincerity.
With just a faint look, Hua Ying'an understood what Gu Nanyan meant. She was saying that she was fine and asked her not to worry.
Humph, Hua Ying'an pouted slightly and snorted in her heart. This woman is really "flirtatious". She didn't leave out any of the many people.
After everyone's emotions stabilized, Gu Nanyan raised her hand and asked Zhan Yiran to get the backpack she brought back.
Zhan Yiran brought the backpack over and asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, what is this? It's so heavy."
"It's for you."
Gu Nanyan opened the backpack, took out a straw cricket from it, and handed it to little Ruirui.
Little Ruirui held the cricket in his little hands and looked up at Gu Nanyan.
Gu Nanyan smiled, "It's for little Ruirui."
Little Ruirui's eyes widened, and an expression appeared on his face for the first time.
Gu Nanyan took out a bag of dried wild flowers from the backpack and gave them to Zhan's mother. These wild flowers can be used to make tea.
Holding the dried wild flowers, Zhan's mother, a wealthy old lady who is used to the ups and downs of life, couldn't help but be moved.
In the situation on the island, where life was in danger, Yanyan actually remembered to pick wild flowers for her to make tea.
These wild flowers were obviously carefully selected by her one by one. From picking to drying, it requires a very complicated process, which takes at least several days.
Zhan's mother turned her back and pressed the corners of her eyes with a tissue.
Her smoke, how come it is so good?
After drying the wild flowers, Gu Nanyan took out two paintings from her bag. She took time to draw them on the way back. One painting was a small animal that was unique to the island and rarely seen outside, and she gave it to Zhan Yiran. One painting was a scenery on the island, and she gave it to Le Xuanji.
And there was Hua Ying'an. Gu Nanyan gave her a short sword made of a wooden stick. It was very beautiful, and there were words engraved on the hilt.
Hua Ying'an's eyes lit up when she saw it.
There were also many fruits that were rarely seen in the outside world, and dried small fish from the sea in the backpack. Gu Nanyan asked Aunt Qian to take them and distribute them to everyone.
No one expected that Gu Nanyan would remember to bring gifts for everyone in such a difficult environment.
This thought and friendship was so heavy that it made them feel sad.
After distributing the gifts, Gu Nanyan went back to her room to change clothes and prepare to go to the restaurant for dinner.
As soon as she went out, she saw Zhan Yiran waiting outside the door.
The little girl has changed a lot. She used to be always noisy and didn't even knock on the door before entering the house. She just walked in without a care, but this time she waited outside the door obediently.
"What's wrong?" Gu Nanyan asked.
"Sister-in-law." Zhan Yiran's eyes turned red and he sniffed. "Am I too useless? You are trapped on the island, but I can't do anything. I can only wait for news at home.
Sister-in-law, I found that I am so bad.
I have always been lazy and lazy. I don't do anything attentively and don't work hard. Because I know that I was born in the Zhan family, I have my mother and brother to back me up, I don't need to work hard, I just need to be a parasite at ease.
But at that moment, I Suddenly I realized that I was powerless.
Something happened to the person I care about, but I can't do anything and I'm at a loss. "
Zhan Yiran shook her head, "I can't go on like this, God gave me such a good background, I should work harder, I want to do something for you, mom, brother and Ruirui.
Even if you don't need it, even if my ability is very small, I want to do my part.
I don't want to be like before, unable to do anything, waiting for you to protect me."
"Our little Yiran has grown up."
Gu Nanyan suddenly stretched out her right hand, pressed Zhan Yiran's back, and held her in her arms.
Zhan Yiran blushed, a little embarrassed, "I'm 18 years old."
"Yes, you are 18 years old, and your eldest sister-in-law is waiting for you to become stronger and protect me." Gu Nanyan laughed.
Zhan Yiran nodded solemnly: "Yes."
Such a dangerous thing must not happen again!
The dinner was particularly rich, all of which were Gu Nanyan's favorites. She had mentioned alfalfa cake, crispy yellow uni, and soft cheese. The chef in the kitchen didn't know how to make them before, but now they are all on the table.
Little Ruirui sat next to Gu Nanyan and carefully picked up dishes for her. He didn't eat them himself, but only picked them for Gu Nanyan.
Everyone was around Gu Nanyan.
After dinner, Aunt Qian brought desserts and fruits.
After eating dessert and fruit, the gardener in the backyard came over and said that they had made a new landscape in the backyard. In the future, when the wife took a walk, she could enjoy the landscape and avoid being bored.
Everyone chattered until 10 o'clock in the evening. Fearing that Gu Nanyan was tired, they left reluctantly.
Le Xuanji and Hua Yingan both stayed at Zhan's house.
Seeing this, Zhan was still puzzled. His mother even kept outsiders, so why did she drive his eldest brother away?
"Silly girl." Zhan's mother tapped her daughter's head and explained, "Your elder brother has always had a bad relationship with Nan Yan. This time when Nan Yan got into trouble, he will definitely tell Nan Yan not to run around anymore.
Nan Yan has suffered so much and just returned home. What she needs is warmth, not blame and preaching.
I was afraid that they would quarrel, so I drove your elder brother away."
Zhan Yiran was filled with righteous indignation, "Eldest brother is too much! How can you say that about the eldest sister-in-law? The incident on the island was an accident and had nothing to do with me. "The eldest sister- in-law 's matter."
Zhan's mother nodded: "They have too little time to spend together, and they don't understand each other, but it will be fine in the future." Zhan Yiran muttered, "The eldest sister-in-law is so outstanding, there must be many men who like her. If the eldest brother doesn't live up to his expectations, the eldest sister-in-law will be snatched away by others. " Zhan's mother was also worried, and told Zhan Yiran, "When you have nothing to do, talk to your eldest brother and teach him how to pursue Nan Yan." Zhan Yiran's eyes lit up and he nodded immediately: "Mom, don't worry, I know what to do."
