Chapter 25 I think you must be very tired

Hang Jingshu was stunned for a moment. The loach in his hand struggled a bit, and then it fell back into the basin with a splash.

"Mr. Gu, what can I do for you?" Hang Jingshu felt uncomfortable seeing him standing at the door.

Gu Zhengguo did not move, his eyes full of smiles, "Nothing, I just feel that your cooking skills are quite good, Xiaohang, you can cook authentic Sichuan cuisine without having learned it before."

Hang Jingshu was not panicked, and asked in surprise: "Mr. Gu, don't you know that those Sichuan dishes were made by Sister Shulan, who is from that place?"

Gu Zhengguo chuckled when he heard this, "That was my negligence."

After saying this, he looked around nonchalantly, then casually brought up the topic, "I caught these eels and loaches myself, what do you want to do with them?"

This thing can be found in the paddy fields of every household. It is not a rare thing, but it is not easy to cook it deliciously.

You have to be willing to add oil.

Hang Jingshu had no intention of hiding it and directly stated his plan.

Gu Zhengguo exchanged a few polite words here, and then he heard some noise coming from upstairs. Yan Chengan had come downstairs.

"Anzi, today we have your favorite fried loach!" Gu Zhengguo smiled brightly and greeted Yan Chengan enthusiastically like a little sun.

Yan Chengan's reaction was much colder. He didn't even stop walking and just answered with a light "hmm".

From Hang Jingshu's perspective, he could only see his high nose bridge and angular jawline.

The last crop of tomatoes can be harvested in September, when the tomatoes are full and juicy.

With the main dish ready, Hang Jingshu prepared to stir-fry some tomatoes and eggs, and then some of Grandpa Yan’s favorite fried tofu.

Fried eel slices in oil is a Haicheng dish, and Grandma Yan would probably like it too.

At noon, we were still empty-handed, especially the plate of deep-fried loaches, which were so crispy and oily. Hang Jingshu even gave half of it and sprinkled some chili powder on it, giving it a grilled flavor. It was so delicious.

Over the next week, apart from cooking for two more people, Hang Jingshu's other activities at the Yan family were not affected.

It’s just that the time I was reading in the morning turned into making clothes.

The rural areas in the north are very cold. Currently, every household has no heating. Those who have the conditions will set up a simple stove with the chimney sticking out of the window.

Families without the means can only rely on braziers and heated kangs at night and simply resist the frost during the day.

Hang Jingshu planned to make a set of cotton-padded clothes before winter, send one to his brother who lived far away in the north, and then make a smaller one for himself.

The Yan family shouldn't be colder than the countryside.

Hang Jingshu always remained polite towards Gu Zhengguo. The relationship between them was that of a guest of the Yan family and a nanny of the Yan family.

This made Gu Zhengguo, who was good at quickly building relationships with others, feel a little frustrated.

After Hang Jingshu rejected his kindness again, Gu Zhengguo asked somewhat hurt: "Xiao Hang, do you hate me?"

Hang Jingshu looked up from his book and gave him a puzzled look. "What?"

"I say, do you hate me?" Gu Zhengguo continued to ask.

Hang Jingshu replied calmly, "I just think that you must be very tired. It's not like you need to have good relationships with everyone. Isn't it better to just do what you want?"

Gu Zhengguo's parents were both politicians, and Gu Zhengguo was influenced by them since he was a child. Naturally, he also learned the character of being good at networking, not offending anyone, and having a say with everyone.

Moreover, we often subconsciously regard things that liven up the atmosphere and bring people closer together as necessary.

After getting to know him for the past few days, Hang Jingshu discovered that he was not a sweet guy, but rather had a people-pleasing personality.

Gu Zhengguo didn't expect the Yan family's nanny to say this. He felt guilty for a moment, and then he even felt like he was seen through.

Then I reflected again, yes, I try so hard to build good relationships with everyone, is it really necessary to be enthusiastic towards others?

Hang Jingshu learned a word when watching videos: useless socializing.

It is probably very suitable for Gu Zhengguo's current condition.
