During these days, he was lying in bed due to body pain. Both the female educated youth at the educated youth site and the girls in the village brought him a lot of food.
The fish soup in front of you is what Zhao Weihong exchanged with her fellow villager.
"Wen Zhiqing, be careful that the fish soup will spill." Zhao Weihong was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He subconsciously reached out to hold the bowl, but accidentally touched Wen Zhuqing's cool fingers. Zhao Weihong's face turned red and he retracted his hand.
She told Wen Zhuqing to hold the bowl, her face blushing as she lowered her head to savor the feeling of touching Wen Zhuqing's hand just now, her heart blossoming with joy.
Wen Zhuqing said thank you and didn't notice Zhao Weihong's abnormality. He lowered his head to drink the fish soup, thinking about what Zhao Weihong had just said.
Zhao Weihong told her about the rumors in the village over the past two days and what Gu Jianing said when they met.
Even though Wen Zhuqing was confident that Gu Jianing liked him, he couldn't help but wonder: Has Gu Jianing really changed? Is she really planning to marry that officer named Sheng Zexi? Isn't this just playing hard to get?
In fact, Gu Jianing, who was most likely to come, did not come these two days, right?
I heard that Gu Yunting has already gone to work.
Wen Zhuqing had a vague feeling that Gu Jianing was out of control.
No, I still have to find a time to meet Gu Jianing in person and ask him.
If she was just playing hard to get and didn't really want to marry Officer Sheng, then that would be fine. But if she really changed, then...
Wen Zhuqing's eyes were dark.
How could he let the prey he had set his eyes on escape so easily?
Gu Jianing, who was regarded as a prey by Wen Zhuqing, had just come out of his grandmother's old house. On the way, he heard many villagers talking about Wen Zhuqing's "good market" after being beaten.
Gu Jianing's grandparents had two sons and a daughter.
The eldest son is her father, and the youngest son is her uncle. According to the tradition of Huaihua Village, the elderly live with the youngest son. After her aunt got married and Grandpa Gu passed away, Grandma Gu took the initiative to divide the family. She lived in the old house with her youngest son, and the eldest son, Gu Jianing's father, gave more money to rebuild the house.
Although they separated, the two brothers had a good relationship. In particular, Grandma Gu did not favor boys over girls. She and her uncle's family loved Gu Jianing especially and would secretly save any delicious food for her.
This time, when getting engaged to Sheng Zexi, Gu Jianing naturally had to tell her grandmother and her uncle's family.
Just then, I came out of the old house happily, and on the way I heard Wu Meili, who was turning over sweet potatoes in the field, and a few aunts gathered nearby talking about how Wen Zhuqing was being courted by many female educated youth and girls in the village.
As he saw her approaching, he became more and more excited and louder.
Is this specifically for her?
This Wu Meili, Aunt Wu, she remembered that this person had previously planned to marry her daughter to her eldest brother, but at that time her eldest brother was dating his eldest sister-in-law Yang Manman, so of course it was impossible for him to look at other people. In addition, Yao Chunhua did not like to be a relative of Wu Meili.
So this look was naturally rejected.
But Wu Meili and her daughter seemed to be holding on to it.
She remembered that in her previous life, her eldest brother and his wife had never had children. Aunt Wu had told the village countless times that her eldest brother's sister-in-law was a hen that would not place an order. Her words were extremely unpleasant. Originally, it would have been fine if her eldest brother had a job as a worker, but she gave him to Wen Zhuqing. In the end, her eldest brother failed in everything he did. However, the man that Gu Baozhu married, who was originally a carpenter, later made his fortune by customizing furniture.
Later, whenever Wu Meili and her mother Yao Chunhua quarreled, she would say something like "a blessed girl will not marry into an unblessed family", meaning that the Gu family was unblessed, but her daughter was blessed. Not only did she ridicule the Gu family, but she also elevated Gu Baozhu.
However, these things will never happen again in this life!
Gu Jianing thought, this Aunt Wu, maybe she wanted her to go to the educated youth center to make trouble.
There was no way she would make a fuss.
However, she felt that Wen Zhuqing had to be dealt with.
She knew very well that Wen Zhuqing had a gentle appearance but was a ruthless and cruel poisonous snake inside. Obviously, she had become Wen Zhuqing's prey, and Wen Zhuqing would not give up on her easily before he had squeezed all her value out of her.
Maybe he will cause trouble after finding out that she is going to marry Sheng Zexi.
Therefore, she had to think about how to get rid of Wen Zhuqing. Even if she couldn't get rid of her in one go, it would be better to let Wen Zhuqing suffer a little. At least after she married Sheng Zexi and joined the army, Wen Zhuqing would not be able to plot against the Gu family.
Gu Jianing kept this in mind and slowly approached Wu Meili and others.
Wu Meili caught a glimpse of Gu Jianing approaching and spoke even more happily.
These two days, she not only heard about Gu Jianing's meeting with an officer, but also saw it.
The officer looked very good. Wu Meili secretly said in her heart that the officer was blind. How could he fall for Gu Jianing? Her daughter was so good.
She thought it would be better for Gu Jianing to like Wen Zhiqing.
Although Wu Meili was saying how good Wen Zhuqing was and how popular he was among the girls, deep down she didn't like this powerless educated youth and felt he was not very reliable. All he had left was a pretty face and a nice mouth. Look at how Gu Jianing had been tricked by Wen Zhuqing before. Not only did she give all her food and drinks to Wen Zhiqing, she even jumped into the river to force her brother to give the job to Wen Zhiqing.
Although Gu Jianing later said that it was a slip and Gu Yunting went to work and denied the rumor, Wu Meili did not believe it.
She hoped that Gu Jianing would continue to chase after Wen Zhiqing, so that the entire Gu family would be dragged into it.
In fact, Wu Meili's feeling was correct. In her previous life, Wen Zhuqing took advantage of Gu Jianing and squeezed out all the value of everyone in the Gu family.
"...I think Wen Zhiqing is really good. He is good-looking and has a good personality. I heard that he can recite poetry and is a Shanghainese. Whoever marries Wen Zhiqing will become a Shanghainese in the future." Wu Meili praised Wen Zhuqing highly.
Gu Jianing approached, hugged her chest, and asked in a delicate voice, pretending to be puzzled: "Aunt Wu, do you really think Wen Zhiqing is that good?"
Wu Meili turned around, as if she had just seen Gu Jianing. She knew that Gu Jianing had heard her words, and her eyes were full of smiles. "Yes, I think Wen Zhiqing is very good. He is a very good candidate for husband and son-in-law."
"Oh, really? Then if Wen Zhiqing becomes your son-in-law, Aunt Wu, wouldn't you be so happy?" Gu Jianing blinked her beautiful almond eyes, as if she couldn't see Wu Meili's deeper meaning, and followed her words.
"Then I'll definitely be happy." Even though Wu Meili didn't like the educated youth in her heart, she would definitely say what Gu Jianing said at this moment.
"No wonder you look so happy, Aunt Wu. It turns out that Wen Zhiqing is going to be your son-in-law." Gu Jianing said with sudden realization.
Wu Meili was confused. What did that mean? What did Wen Zhiqing mean to be her son-in-law?
Gu Jianing blinked and pretended to be surprised, "Aunt Wu, don't you know? Your daughter Zhenzhu likes Wen Zhiqing. By the way, did you stew meat today? I saw that Zhenzhu seemed to want to give meat to Wen Zhiqing. Why, Aunt Wu, don't you know?"
