Chapter 49: Urging People to Go on Blind Dates
"Xiao Su, I'm sorry for the expense."
Grandpa Xu felt a little embarrassed. He wanted to repay Su Nanzhi, but his family was not well off and he couldn't come up with any gifts at the moment. He could only secretly make up his mind that whenever he had the chance in the future, he would repay Su Nanzhi's kindness at that moment.
Su Nanzhi waved her hand and said, "If Jianian hadn't happened a few days ago, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to spend money like this."
As he was speaking, Gu Xizhou had already washed his hands and walked in from the yard.
Seeing the sumptuous dishes on the table, a glimmer flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
When everyone arrived, they immediately sat down and started eating.
Before eating, Xu Jianian had a greedy look on his face, but when it came time to eat, he ate slowly and it was obvious that he was very well-mannered.
Although Grandma Xu's eyesight was poor, she never missed a meal. Grandpa Xu beside her would pick up food for her from time to time. Grandma Xu had a smile on her face and was obviously very used to Grandpa Xu's behavior. The two seemed to have a very good relationship.
Just as Su Nanzhi was about to look away, she met Grandpa Xu's sharp gaze. Just as she was about to look away, she saw Grandpa Xu grinning.
"Come to my house every day when you have nothing to do, and I'll give you a few injections."
Su Nanzhi: Why do I have to get a few injections every day?
"Even if you're eating enough nutrition now, you still need to make up for the deficit you suffered when you were young, otherwise it will be difficult for you to have children in the future."
When Grandpa Xu said this, the smile on his face disappeared and he looked very serious.
Su Nanzhi's first reaction was disbelief. In her previous life, she became pregnant not long after she got married, but she never got pregnant again after giving birth to that unfilial son. At first, she was sad that she couldn't give her unfilial son a brother or sister, but later she was glad that she didn't give birth to another unfilial son.
Before she got pregnant, every day when she took Qin Lie to Grandpa Xu's house to see his leg, Grandpa Xu would also give her an injection, but at that time Grandpa Xu's excuse was that she was too weak.
In this life, she was reborn, and except for her awakened mind, her body was still the same as her previous life.
So the reason why Grandpa Xu said this could only be because her personality had changed.
"Grandpa Xu, you're saying this to me all of a sudden. Aren't you afraid that I'll be sad and upset? If I think too much about it, it will be even worse for my health."
Su Nanzhi was a little curious.
Grandpa Xu glanced at her sideways, "Just you? Still sad?"
"Who just said that there will be no internal friction?"
Looking at Grandpa Xu's smug look, Su Nanzhi saw Gu Xizhou, who had a dark face and was wondering what he was thinking, and immediately retorted: "Even if that's the case, you can't talk about my illness in front of outsiders."
When Gu Xizhou heard what Su Nanzhi said, he suddenly looked up at her.
Was he just an outsider in Su Nanzhi's eyes? Not even a friend?
Su Nanzhi felt as if she saw a flash of frustration in Gu Xizhou's eyes, but before she could continue looking, she heard Grandpa Xu's cheerful voice.
"I'm not good at anything else, but these eyes are still useful."
"You are such a cunning girl. If you didn't trust Xiao Gu, Xiao Gu wouldn't be coming to my house now."
Hearing these suggestive words, Su Nanzhi's face looked a little uncomfortable. She wanted to refute, but found that she couldn't refute at all.
Since her rebirth, Gu Xizhou is the person she has had the most contact with and the person she subconsciously trusts the most.
But she didn't dare to think about why.
When Gu Xizhou heard this, he felt his heart beating fast.
Although Su Nanzhi doesn't like him? But she regards him as the person she trusts the most?
While I was secretly happy, I also felt a little unwilling.
If Su Nanzhi likes him...
"That's right, the people always trust their own soldiers." Su Nanzhi laughed.
Xu Jianian, who was standing by, with rice grains stuck on his mouth, asked curiously, "But Sister Nanzhi, you don't like that bad uncle."
This bad uncle is none other than Qin Lie.
Su Nanzhi: ...
She decided to reduce the amount of food she fed Comrade Xu Xiao in the next few days.
Because of this, the atmosphere at the table became a little awkward for a moment. After finishing the meal, Su Nanzhi and Gu Xizhou cleaned up and left quickly.
After the two left, Grandpa Xu helped Grandma Xu to the room.
Grandma Xu couldn't help but ask, "Wenshu, you must like Xiao Su and Xiao Gu very much. This is the first time I see you acting as a matchmaker."
Facing his wife who had been with him through thick and thin for more than half a century, Grandpa Xu lost his airs and said cheerfully, "Xiaozhen, when your eyesight gets better, you'll definitely think they're a good match. Besides my medical skills, I'm also an expert at physiognomy."
"Xiao Su and Xiao Gu are the second most compatible people I've ever met."
Hearing this, Grandma Xu turned her head to look at Grandpa Xu, "Who is the first match?"
Grandpa Xu chuckled and said, "It's far away in the horizon, but it's right in front of us."
Grandma Xu: "You are such an old fool."
***
After a few days of observation, Xu Jianian's hand did not need to be hospitalized. In addition, Xu Jianian did not want to be hospitalized. In the end, only Su Nanzhi and Gu Xizhou left.
When they reached the fork in the road, Su Nanzhi saw that Gu Xizhou was still following her, so she stopped and looked at him curiously.
"It's dark at night. It's not safe."
After Gu Xizhou finished speaking, he walked in front of Su Nanzhi and headed towards the guesthouse first.
Su Nanzhi didn't expect Gu Xizhou to be so attentive. She glanced at the sky, which was only gray, but she didn't refuse. She took two steps behind Gu Xizhou and followed him closely.
The county town was not big, and Gu Xizhou had long legs and big steps, so he soon arrived at the door of the reception center.
But at this moment the sky has become completely dark.
Gu Xizhou stood at the door of the reception center and turned to look at Su Nanzhi.
Su Nanzhi also stopped and looked at Gu Xizhou's profile, which was sometimes bright and sometimes dark in the reflection of the night. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that if Gu Xizhou was willing to have a relationship without getting married, she would be really crazy about it.
Unfortunately, Gu Xizhou is a non-marriage person.
"Are you really going to the military reunion?"
It's just that his personality is a little strange. When Su Nanzhi heard what Gu Xizhou said suddenly, she immediately gave up the throbbing in her heart.
But when she met Gu Xizhou's gaze, she said irritably, "What? Captain Gu, are you planning to be a matchmaker after you retire? You don't want to get married, but you're pushing people to go on blind dates."
