Little Tangyuan is about to go to kindergarten, so Gu Zhinian went to the department store to buy school supplies. Although there is no need to read or write in kindergarten, he still has to prepare what he needs.
Schoolbag, notebook, pencil, eraser...
After all, little Tangyuan is a kindergarten kid. She should buy two new sets of clothes and new shoes and dress neatly to go to school. She doesn't want others to think that little Tangyuan has a sloppy mother. She can't afford to embarrass that person.
After Gu Zhinian calculated, he found that there were quite a lot of miscellaneous things. The weather was getting warmer and no longer cold, so Gu Zhinian decided to ride his bike to the city to buy things.
He took out the bicycle that had been at home for a long time. It was a 28-inch bicycle with a lot of dust on it. Gu Zhinian fetched a basin of water and washed the bicycle downstairs.
Li Guiying came down with a basket on her back, and when she saw Gu Zhinian, she started to talk to him.
"Xiao Gu, is cleaning the bicycle?"
Gu Zhinian smiled and raised his head to answer her.
"Yes, it's getting warmer now. I want to ride my bike to the city to buy some things. Sister-in-law, please go out."
Li Guiying lifted the basket and said, "I made some tofu and took it to the city to sell."
"Sister-in-law can also make tofu, so amazing!"
Gu Zhinian heard that making tofu is quite troublesome, as you have to soak the beans and grind them, and it is impossible to do it without some patience.
Li Guiying left with the basket on her back. After Gu Zhinian finished wiping the bicycle, he hung his handbag on the handlebars and stepped onto the bicycle unsteadily. The bicycle had a large beam in the front, making it inconvenient to get on and off.
Riding his bike into the city, Gu Zhinian gave the old man who looked after the bike a dime, put the license plate in his bag, and walked to the mall.
Stopping in front of the stationery cabinet, Gu Zhinian lowered his head and carefully selected stationery.
"Comrade, what do you want to buy?"
Gu Zhinian looked around and pointed at the stationery on the cabinet.
"Take a box of pencils, an eraser, exercise books, and the blue school bag."
The teller took out the things, and Gu Zhinian looked around, but there was no pencil sharpener, only a small knife for sharpening pencils.
"And bring me two pencil sharpeners."
"That's three dollars and a half."
The teller took out a knife, Gu Zhinian paid the money, and went to buy clothes with the newly bought stationery.
"Zhi Nian!"
A cold voice came from behind. Gu Zhinian turned around and saw that it was Zhou Zhichuan. The child standing next to him was the little boy who bumped into her last time.
Zhou Zhichuan's steps were a little anxious. He didn't expect to see her here. He stood one meter away from her, with a gentle smile on his face, and glanced at the stationery in her hand.
"Zhi Nian, come and buy something."
Gu Zhinian pursed his lips and smiled, "Comrade Zhou, we meet again."
"Just call me Zhichuan."
Zhou Zhichuan's little nephew ran over and hid behind his uncle. He remembered this beautiful sister. Last time, he knocked her to the ground.
Zhou Zhichuan patted his nephew's back.
"School is about to start, I came to buy him something."
The winter vacation is over and most schools have started to reopen. Gu Zhinian nodded and picked up the stationery in his hand.
"Little Tangyuan is going to kindergarten too, so I'll buy him some stationery."
Zhou Zhichuan was stunned. Little Tangyuan? "Is he your employer's child?"
Gu Zhinian nodded, "It's mine too."
"What?" Zhou Zhichuan didn't understand what it meant, and was too embarrassed to ask again.
"Last time, a woman came to my factory to apply for a job. Her name was Han Li. Is she your friend?"
"Yes." Gu Zhinian raised the corner of his mouth and smiled slightly, "How is she?"
Zhou Zhichuan smiled, "Very good, she's eloquent and capable. With a senior accountant guiding her for a few days, she'll be able to get the hang of it."
"That's good." Gu Zhinian thought about waiting for Xiao Tangyuan to go to school and then taking time to visit her.
"Well, I have something else to buy, so I'm leaving first."
Gu Zhinian turned around and wanted to leave, but Zhou Zhichuan stopped her.
"Zhi Nian!"
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Zhichuan took another step forward and said, "Do you want to come work in my factory? I can arrange office work for you. It's not tiring."
If she had been a nanny before and was attracted by this job, she could have resigned and gone to work in a factory.
Now, she is Xiao Tangyuan’s biological mother. If she works in the factory, she will have to leave Xiao Tangyuan, and she really can’t bear to do so.
"Sorry, I'm not going."
Zhou Zhichuan was surprised but also somewhat expected. Was she unwilling to leave because of that man from last time?
His feelings towards Gu Zhinian were definitely not pure. No employer would look at his nanny with such gentle eyes.
A married man with children has unspeakable feelings for his young nanny. Does his wife know about it?
Does Gu Zhinian know?
Zhou Zhichuan frowned and clenched his fists, "You know... you know him..."
Gu Zhinian looked at him with confusion, "What? What do I know?"
With so many people coming and going in public, Zhou Zhichuan was afraid that speaking out would embarrass her, so he sighed.
"Nothing, I just want to remind you that as a girl, you should pay attention to protecting yourself and not let others bully you."
"Thank you, I know." Gu Zhinian felt warm in his heart, "Then I'll go first."
After Gu Zhinian left, Zhou Zhichuan stared at her back in a daze. His little nephew tugged at the corner of his clothes.
"Uncle, I want to buy stationery."
"Okay." Zhou Zhichuan took him to the cabinet where Gu Zhinian had just bought stationery.
After the shopping, Zhou Zhichuan returned home. His mother was sitting on the sofa chatting with a young woman. The woman saw Zhou Zhichuan and stood up shyly.
