Chapter 42 Do You Trust Zhou Manman So Much?
In fact, last night, it was Zhou Manman who forced him to take the initiative.
But, in fact, he was not opposed to this matter at all.
Even, there is a bit of aftertaste.
Gu Linchuan shifted his gaze away from her lips with some difficulty, and also picked up a piece of meat for Zhou Manman: "Try it, you worked hard to cook."
Suddenly, everyone stared at Gu Linchuan with wide eyes.
Zhou Manman was the same. She was almost so excited that she couldn't hold the bowl in her hands.
"It's not hard, husband. I think it's worth it to let you eat so many delicious foods every day." She came back to her senses and said sweetly, feeling somewhat grateful in her heart.
While eating the pig's trotter, Gu Sitian suddenly asked, "Why is this pig's trotter bitter?"
"No way? I actually think it's a bit sweet," said Chen Chunmei.
"It's bitter!" Gu Sitian took a bite and spat it out.
Zhou Manman noticed that her face was a little pale and she had serious dark circles under her eyes, so she roughly knew what was going on.
"Have you had trouble sleeping recently? Have you had a lot of nightmares?" Zhou Manman said to Gu Sitian with a smile.
"How come you...didn't!" Gu Sitian denied after coming to her senses.
She didn't forget what Zhou Manman said last time.
She cursed her at that time, and now everything has come true!
These past few days, she has indeed been suffering from insomnia, having to get up in the middle of the night to drink water, and she also has nightmares all the time.
Now, even though the food Zhou Manman cooked smelled so delicious, she felt it tasted bitter.
But she still didn't want to admit that Zhou Manman was right.
"Okay, if you want to ask me for help, it's not impossible. I'll help you if you apologize to me."
"I don't want to." Gu Sitian said. She had never apologized to anyone. At home, her mother and brother loved her very much. She didn't need to apologize even if she did something wrong!
After dinner, Gu Linchuan asked Zhou Manman: "So, what disease did she have?"
"It's just a sore throat." Zhou Manman explained briefly and Gu Linchuan understood.
"You're not going to tell your sister?"
"No, just handle it your way." It wasn't a big deal, and Gu Sitian was indeed disrespectful to Zhou Manman.
Everyone has witnessed the changes that Zhou Manman has undergone during this period.
Zhou Manman smiled when she heard that. She stood on tiptoe and kissed Gu Linchuan on the cheek.
Well, in her eyes, Gu Linchuan was just an obedient baby who could earn her rewards and was well-behaved. Apart from being a little cold, there was nothing wrong with him.
In the afternoon, Zhou Manman brought food to Gu Linchuan again. She made mung bean cakes and refreshing tea with chrysanthemum and wolfberry in it to clear the liver and improve eyesight.
Combined with the water in the space, it will be more helpful to Gu Linchuan.
She was happy that there were many things in the space. Besides, Gu Linchuan was a very nice person, so Zhou Manman was willing to pay more for him.
Zhou Manman went out with her things, but found that the villagers who met her on the road stared at her with strange eyes.
What's going on?
Is her outfit strange today?
Although they are all clothes taken out from the space, they are all in line with this era and can be considered very conservative.
Zhou Manman walked towards Gu Linchuan in confusion.
She also brought afternoon tea to Gu Linchuan.
Everyone around is envious. After all, no one can enjoy such treatment.
Most people, as long as they have healthy limbs, work on the farm together as a family.
Many people get off work at noon and rush to cook something to eat, then take a break to conserve energy for the afternoon farm work.
How is it possible that there is something to eat after a while in the afternoon?
Zhou Manman and Gu Linchuan are still better.
But when they thought of the rumors they heard in the morning, their eyes became somewhat unfriendly.
"You know what, Zhou Manman is really good at pretending. In fact, these things were all made by her mother-in-law, right?"
"That's it. Send some food and pretend to be good in front of everyone."
"Look at her, she's so pretty, with delicate skin and tender flesh, and it's obvious that she can't do any work!"
…
Zhou Manman didn't hear their mutterings at this time. Because they were a little far away, she also focused on looking at Gu Linchuan and asked him: "How is it? Is it delicious?"
She stared at Gu Linchuan with sparkling eyes, her look full of anticipation.
Gu Linchuan nodded under her gaze and said, "It's delicious."
"That's good."
Gu Linchuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was nothing unusual on her face.
It seems that his ears are too sensitive, so he can hear those sounds.
The villagers' gossip was really unpleasant, but fortunately, Zhou Manman didn't hear it.
Zhou Manman took the towel to wipe Gu Linchuan's sweat and stared at his handsome face from a close distance. She really wanted to eat him.
Unfortunately, we have to take it step by step. It would be bad if we scare Gu Linchuan.
After Gu Linchuan finished eating, she cleaned up the dishes and said to Gu Linchuan, "I'm going back first."
A gust of wind blew, and the girl's hair fluttered. Her face, which was more beautiful than flowers, was delicate and charming.
Gu Linchuan narrowed his dark eyes and nodded.
He watched Zhou Manman leave.
Then he turned his head, his eyes turned cold, and he turned to look at the group of people not far behind him.
The group of people who were originally discussing Zhou Manman and Gu Linchuan enthusiastically paused after noticing Gu Linchuan's cold gaze.
For some reason, under Gu Linchuan's gaze, they felt cold sweat on their backs and their bodies became stiff.
Could it be that he heard their conversation just now? However, they were just discussing in a low voice.
Gu Linchuan is someone you cannot afford to offend. I heard that the higher-ups are taking special care of him.
"What qualifications do you have to judge my wife?" Gu Linchuan asked with an extremely cold tone.
"Linchuan, we are just speaking up for you. Think about it, Zhou Manman is lazy and doesn't contribute to the family." A woman who was a distant relative of the Gu family said with courage.
"She is very good. She cooked all the meals and cured my mother's illness."
Everyone was surprised, this was different from what they had heard.
But when I think about it, I have never smelled such delicious food as Gu's before, but now I have...
"But you know what? She still asked your mother to work in the fields! Your mother is so weak, how can she work?"
Gu Linchuan was stunned. He had never heard of this matter.
Zhou Manman didn’t say that either.
However, he remained calm and told them: "Manman must have her reasons for doing this. Stop gossiping, otherwise I will report this matter to the higher authorities."
Everyone looked pale.
They knew that when Gu Linchuan mentioned reporting, he didn't mean reporting to the captain, and it might involve higher-ups.
I heard that when Gu Linchuan was demobilized, his military rank was still there. If they were accused of destroying a military marriage, that would be terrible!
At this moment, a voice came from the side: "Linchuan, do you trust Zhou Manman so much?"
