Chapter 45: Uncle Gu
Gu Xizhou hugged Xu Jianian, and the usually cold and hard man now looked a little softer.
After walking a few steps away from the Li family, Gu Xizhou finally spoke, "Grandma Li's grandson and I were comrades-in-arms. He died in a mission. Now Grandma Li is the only one left in the Li family. Grandma Li is not short of money. She likes you very much. If you settle accounts with her too much, she will be angry."
Su Nanzhi finally understood what Grandma Li had just said, and her heart was instantly filled with admiration for her. If Gu Xizhou hadn't said it, she would not have been able to tell that Grandma Li had endured so much hardship.
"Soldiers may die at any time on the battlefield, which is irresponsible to their families." Looking at Su Nanzhi's thoughtful look, Gu Xizhou spoke unconsciously.
Su Nanzhi came back to her senses and looked at Gu Xizhou in surprise after hearing this.
"Since the woman has chosen to marry a soldier, she has thought it through." Su Nanzhi's expression was serious. "Even soldiers have the right to pursue happiness."
"You're being a bit serious. Compared to his career, a gay man's moral character is the most important thing to a family."
Gu Xizhou didn't expect Su Nanzhi to say this, but when he thought of Qin Lie, he doubted the truthfulness of what Su Nanzhi said.
He did not comment on Qin Lie's character, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Qin Lie was not a good husband.
As if she could see what was in Gu Xizhou's mind, Su Nanzhi raised her eyebrows and said cheerfully, "I was blind before, but you'll just have to wait and see. My future husband will definitely be a hundred times better than Qin Lie."
Before the corners of Gu Xizhou's mouth could fully curl up, his face froze when he heard the second half of the sentence.
"What kind of husband do you want?"
Hearing this from Gu Xizhou's mouth, Su Nanzhi reflexively said, "What? Captain Gu, do you want to introduce me?"
Without waiting for him to react, she generously stated her requirements for the future half.
In today's world, single women are not safe. It would be great if they could find a suitable partner, but if not, they should find someone who has the same goals as them.
"I want someone who's handsome, tall, has simple family members, keeps a distance from lesbians, is hardworking, clean, and has high emotional intelligence..."
Su Nanzhi casually stated her request, which sounded like a girl's fantasy about her future partner, a bit unrealistic.
But only Su Nanzhi herself knows that these are her basic requirements for her future partner.
Although the failed marriage in her previous life did not make her lose the ability to love, it did make her have higher expectations for her future partner.
Although you can get used to each other after marriage, why not find the person who best meets your requirements from the beginning?
If anyone else heard Su Nanzhi's request for her future half, they would definitely laugh at her for dreaming.
Fortunately, only Gu Xizhou and Xu Jianian heard what Su Nanzhi said, and they did not laugh at her.
Gu Xizhou lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. However, Xu Jianian looked excited, "Sister Nanzhi, the person you are talking about must be Uncle Gu, right?"
Seeing Su Nanzhi and Gu Xizhou both looking at her, Xu Jianian frowned, raised her hands and began to mutter, "Uncle Gu is handsome and tall. Although he looks a bit fierce, the other sisters are afraid of him. Besides, he doesn't have the smell of the other uncles."
"If you don't believe me, just smell it."
After saying this, afraid that Su Nanzhi wouldn't believe him, he stretched his upper body out of Gu Xizhou's arms and was about to pull Su Nanzhi so that she could get closer to smell Gu Xizhou.
Su Nanzhi took a few steps back in panic, her face, which had been painted dark, flushed red. Seeing Gu Xizhou looking at her, she immediately waved her hand, "Captain Gu, I didn't say anything about you, please don't misunderstand."
Although she said this, Xu Jianian's words kept coming back to her mind.
He's tall and handsome, has a bad temper, and is easy to get along with. Isn't he the best candidate for her future partner?
Unfortunately, he is a non-marriageist.
Gu Xizhou didn't really think that Su Nanzhi was talking about him, but he perfectly met all the conditions that Su Nanzhi had just mentioned.
if……
Gu Xizhou's brows darkened when he realized the thought that had appeared in his mind.
The whole person exudes a gloomy aura.
Su Nanzhi just thought that she had offended Gu Xizhou. In addition to the good impression she had of Gu Xizhou just now, she also had a bad impression of him.
Can't take a joke.
"I'll keep an eye on it for you."
Gu Xizhou said this expressionlessly, and without caring about Su Nanzhi's reaction, he held Xu Jianian in his arms and strode forward.
Su Nanzhi looked at his back with a confused look on her face.
Gu Xizhou is really like the weather in June, changing at any time.
As for Gu Xizhou's words about introducing her, Su Nanzhi naturally didn't take it seriously.
She didn't dare to imagine the scene of Gu Xizhou acting as a matchmaker with a cold face.
***
Half an hour later, Su Nanzhi, Gu Xizhou and Xu Jianian appeared at the intersection of the street where Xu's family lived, holding a flag in their hands.
It was the afternoon rush hour and the streets were full of people.
Because of the flag in Su Nanzhi's hand, the three of them became the people who attracted the most attention on the street.
Certificate of commendation: This certificate is issued to encourage the brave boy Xu Jianian for his bravery in doing what is right.
Xu Jianian, who was held in Gu Xizhou's arms, felt the gazes of the neighbors on him, which were completely different from before. He couldn't help but straighten his chest and put the small banner hanging around his neck in a more conspicuous place, with a look of asking for praise on his face.
Su Nanzhi looked at the crowd gathering around her and raised the banner in her hand a little higher to ensure that more people could see it.
After all, she spent money to make this banner, not only to thank Xu Jianian, but also to use it to improve the lives of the Xu family.
The street office was not big, and soon a staff member heard the noise outside and came out of the office.
After seeing the banner Su Nanzhi was holding, he immediately thought of the incident a few days ago when the Public Security Bureau came to the street to investigate Xu Jianian.
However, there was no follow-up after the investigation. I didn’t expect that Su Nanzhi would appear on the street openly with a banner today.
After all, when the Public Security Bureau came to investigate, they had inquired about the whole story and knew that Su Nanzhi had encountered a gangster. However, women would hide it when encountering such things, and they would never do this to Su Nanzhi.
"Little girl, what good deeds did the Xu family's grandson do? You even specially made a banner for him."
An old lady with a gossipy look on her face came up to Su Nanzhi, and after seeing the words on the flag clearly, she immediately asked curiously.
Since Su Nanzhi had thought of sending a flag to the Xu family, she had naturally anticipated this.
She had just opened her mouth to speak when Gu Xizhou beside her suddenly spoke.
"If you're curious, go ask the police at the Public Security Bureau."
The aunt curled her lips and didn't ask any more questions.
Although they are curious, people will not go to the Public Security Bureau just to satisfy their curiosity.
However, because of Gu Xizhou's attitude, everyone thought that Xu Jianian must have helped Su Nanzhi a lot, otherwise why would he keep it a secret.
