Chapter 66 Do you want to try?
After hanging up the phone, Lin Youning went downstairs to have breakfast.
The life of a salted fish is good. If you are tired the night before, you don’t have to do anything the next day. You can eat and sleep, and no one will control you or interfere.
After a day of salting fish at home, Lin Youning and Gu Huaichen returned to Gu's house together the next day.
The two hadn't been back for a while, and when they went back, the elders of the Gu family were as enthusiastic as ever.
During this time, Lin Youning also learned that Gu Huaichen's parents did not originally live in the old house. It was because the old man was old that Gu's father handed over the company to Gu Huaichen, and then they moved back to the old house with Ji Nutu. On the one hand, it was to take care of the old man, and on the other hand, the old house was more suitable for living.
To be honest, if Lin Youning was not a person who liked shopping, she would also want to move back to the old house to live.
The environment of the old house is so good, just like the Peach Blossom Spring that I learned in textbooks before.
There are mountains and water here, which is a typical garden house design.
The last time she came here, she felt like she had returned to ancient times.
Gu Huaichen was chatting with his grandfather and knew that she was not feeling well. Ji Nutu asked her to go to the room to pick out gifts. She had been abroad some time ago and brought back a lot of clothes and jewelry.
Lin Youning followed the girl upstairs and went to her dressing room.
"Don't be polite to me." Ji Nutu said with a smile, "Take whatever you like."
Lin Youning chuckled, her eyebrows curved, "Then I would like to thank my mother first."
Ji Nutu looked at her, touched her head and sighed, "Why didn't I give birth to a daughter?"
“…”
Lin Youning blinked, not quite sure what to say.
Ji Nutu laughed, "Mom didn't mean to induce labor."
When this topic was brought up, Lin Youning was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "Grandpa isn't in a hurry either?"
Ji Nutu raised her eyebrows: "Why do you care what he does?"
Lin Youning: “Ah?”
Isn't the old man the eldest in the family? ! Doesn't that mean he doesn't need to care about it?
Knowing what she was thinking, Ji Nutu said calmly: "Marriage and having children are matters between you and Huaichen. You will live alone now and in the future, so don't pay too much attention to what we say or think."
Lin Youning was stunned. It was the first time she heard such a statement.
Ji Nutu looked at her with a smile, "Although the Gu family does have an heir to the "throne", we are not that old-fashioned. As for children, of course we hope that you and Huaichen can have one, preferably a baby girl. I want a granddaughter. But if you young people like to live in a world of two and like to live without burdens, we will not stop you."
She raised her hand and touched Lin Youning's head. "The old man may give you a hint and urge you to do it. Your father and I will do whatever you want."
She told Lin Youning, "Even if the old man urges you, you don't have to take it to heart. Just make a decision according to your original idea. As long as you and Huaichen are happy, it doesn't matter whether you have a baby or not."
“…”
After listening to what Miss Ji said, Lin Youning was silent for a long time.
After a while, she said softly, "Mom."
Ji Nutu: “Hmm?”
"Thank you." Lin Youning was somewhat touched.
The girl smiled and said, "Do you know how many years after your father and I got married that he was born?"
Lin Youning shook her head. She really didn't understand.
There are many things about the Gu family that outsiders only have a vague understanding of.
Ji Nutu: "The sixth year, right? He was born in the sixth year of our marriage."
Lin Youning was surprised, "Grandpa, didn't they urge us?"
"I don't know." Ji Nutu replied.
She smiled and said, "Maybe I urged your dad."
Lin Youning understood what Ji Nutu meant. The elders of the Gu family might have urged them, but the Gu family was very sensible about some things. When it came to having children, they would be anxious and urge them, but they would not urge their daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law. Their pressure was on the men.
This is how it should be.
Suddenly, Lin Youning thought of what Gu Huaichen said the night before.
He told her not to worry and said that the elders would not ask about children. I think this is the reason. They would not ask, at least not to Lin Youning.
"Don't think about these things that haven't happened." Ji Nutu has a good attitude and is very young. "Hurry up and see if there is anything you like."
Lin Youning pulled back her wandering thoughts and replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll take a look."
Finally, Lin Youning picked out a pair of very beautiful earrings from Ji Nutu.
The girl praised her for her good taste.
Lin Youning curled her lips and said, "I'll bring you a gift when I return from Paris."
Ji Nutu raised her eyebrows: "Going there with Huaichen tomorrow?"
Lin Youning nodded.
"Okay." Ji Nutu urged, "I'm looking forward to it."
The two chatted for a while upstairs, and in addition to children, they began to talk about jewelry and clothes.
Ji Nutu really doesn't have the slightest bit of airs of an elder. Lin Youning doesn't feel any pressure or tension when she's with her.
As the two were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
Ji Nutu glanced sideways, "What's the matter?"
Gu Huaichen walked in from outside. He was wearing a very casual outfit today. He didn't look so dull overall. In comparison, he seemed to be several years younger.
Lin Youning couldn't help but take another look.
Noticing her gaze, Gu Huaichen looked over with his eyes narrowed and his eyebrows slightly raised.
Lin Youning turned his eyes away silently.
"Why are you here?" Ji Nutu didn't notice the interaction between the two and raised her eyes to ask, "Have you finished talking about the matter?"
Gu Huaichen nodded, "Well, we have to go back."
The girl paused for a moment, then stood up and asked, "Are you not staying here tonight?"
Gu Huaichen said without hesitation: "No."
"..." Ji Nutu choked slightly and looked at him speechlessly, "Grandpa still wants you to go for a walk with him tomorrow morning."
Gu Huaichen: "Next time."
Hearing this, Ji Nutu did not ask any more questions, "Okay, tell the driver to drive slower."
Gu Huaichen nodded.
"Mom." Lin Youning stood up, "We'll leave first."
Ji Nutu nodded, picked up her phone and waved it towards Lin Youning, "Let's contact each other on WeChat."
Lin Youning winked at her and agreed.
Gu Huaichen pretended not to notice the two people's coming and going, and said calmly: "Let's go."
Lin Youning: “…”
After saying hello to the old man and Mr. Gu upstairs, the two got in the car and left.
Not surprisingly, the trunk contained a lot of stuff.
It was only after getting in the car that Gu Huaichen noticed the box in Lin Youning's hand, "What is this?"
"My mother gave it to me." Lin Youning opened it and showed it to him, her eyes sparkling. "How is it? Pretty, right?"
The earrings are in a dark blue teardrop shape, surrounded by a circle of diamonds and with a dark blue gem in the middle, which looks truly dazzling.
Gu Huaichen glanced at it and nodded lightly.
Lin Youning: “That’s it?”
Gu Huaichen glanced at her, then his eyes moved to her ears. He paused and asked, "Did you try it on in the room?"
"?"
His question was so sudden that Lin Youning was stunned for a few seconds before slowly shaking her head, "No."
"Do you want to try it?" Gu Huaichen asked, staring at her fair and delicate earlobe.
He knew that her earlobes were soft.
