Gu Changzheng was carrying a bag containing their clothes, as well as some skincare products from Lu Huaijiao, and a whole bunch of other things.
Last night, He Meizhu prepared a lot of things, all local specialties from Dawancun, saying she wanted to take them back for her in-laws to try.
After all, Lu Zhengde couldn't attend Lu Huaijiao's wedding, and He Meizhu always felt somewhat sorry for him.
However, all of her things were pushed away by Lu Huaijiao.
Lu Huaijiao didn't directly mention the despicable thing Lu Zhengde had done. She just said that Gu Changzheng had to take care of her and it wasn't convenient for him to bring so many things.
But she couldn't leave them out completely, so Lu Huaijiao picked out two salted fish from the things He Meizhu had brought.
These two salted fish are a gift for Qin Lan and Lu Huaiyu.
She wanted to tell them that in her eyes, they were no different from salted fish that couldn't turn themselves over.
As for the others, she didn't want them, and He Meizhu couldn't force her to accept them.
I'm afraid it will really delay Gu Changzheng from taking care of Lu Huaijiao.
This morning, He Meizhu deliberately didn't go to work right away, but personally escorted the two of them to the village entrance, instructing Gu Changzheng to take good care of Lu Huaijiao.
You must never let anyone bump into or hurt you.
In He Meizhu's words, if Lu Huaijiao returned a month later with not a single hair missing, He Meizhu would never let Gu Changzheng off the hook.
Gu Changzheng: ...
His mother is already Lu Huaijiao's biological mother, and his stepmother.
Lu Huaijiao clung to He Meizhu's arm, reluctant to part, until the bus arrived. Only then did she reluctantly let go, turning back every few steps as she boarded the bus.
The two arrived at the county's train station.
Lu Huaijiao, who had been listless, stood on the platform and said the words she had just spoken.
Gu Changzheng listened to Lu Huaijiao's words and looked at her smug little face, and he found it a little funny.
"With your skinny arms and legs, who do you think you can scare?"
Lu Huaijiao snorted and glanced sideways at the man beside her.
"Isn't there you? Otherwise, what do you think I brought you back for?"
Gu Changzheng: ? ? ?
"Instead of the couple returning home together, you're taking me back to help beat someone up?"
So, is he Lu Huaijiao's husband or her henchman this time?
"Can't we have both? Gu Changzheng, how can you be so stupid?"
After complaining about Gu Changzheng's stupidity, Lu Huaijiao turned around and muttered, "It's lucky that I fell for you, otherwise I think you would have been single for life."
Gu Changzheng: ...
Thank you!
The train, which is usually late, was surprisingly on time today.
In Lu Huaijiao's words, it was as if the train was helping her, knowing she was going home to beat someone up.
"..."
Gu Changzheng had gotten used to it and automatically ignored Lu Huaijiao's words.
The two boarded the train and arrived at the sleeper car.
In 1975, getting a sleeper car on a train required connections.
These days, sleeper berths aren't something you can just get whenever you want.
Gu Changzheng had his own way of doing things, and Lu Huaijiao didn't ask him.
In short, as long as she makes her travel environment more comfortable, she won't complain about him anymore.
After finding her place, Gu Changzheng first tidied up her original bed, then took out a thin blanket from his bag and placed it on the bed before Lu Huaijiao sat down.
Gu Changzheng then used the quilt cover he had brought from home to put the quilt from the train on and covered her legs.
"It's chilly in the car. I told you not to wear a skirt, but you wouldn't listen. Can't you be less concerned about looking good?"
Seeing Lu Huaijiao's shapely, white legs, Gu Changzheng felt a deep pang of heartache.
Along the way, how many men's eyes kept falling on her legs, intentionally or unintentionally?
If given the chance, he would have immediately pulled the blanket over her legs.
It's euphemistically called "cold."
Lu Huaijiao wrinkled her nose and kicked the blanket.
"hot."
She didn't think there was anything wrong with the dress she was wearing.
The skirts now reach mid-calf length, which is much better than the short skirts of my past.
So she had no idea that Gu Changzheng, this petty man, would be jealous of even this little bit.
"Don't kick it, the wind will blow on your knees, and you'll cry when it hurts."
"..."
Lu Huaijiao was a little angry. Did she seem like the kind of person who would cry over the slightest pain?
However, Gu Changzheng was not one to be easily swayed, so she didn't speak to him.
"I want to drink water."
"Wait a minute, the water in the kettle is still a bit hot."
Gu Changzheng poured water from his military water bottle, told her what he had done, and then lowered his eyes to carefully blow on the water in the cup.
Lu Huaijiao hummed softly, resting her chin on her hands as she looked at his serious profile.
What appeared before my eyes was Gu Changzheng from my previous life.
He was taciturn, rough and unrefined; you had no idea what he was thinking when you were with him.
If he had been like this in his past life, I probably would have liked him a little more, right?
Lu Huaijiao was startled by her own thought: she liked Gu Changzheng?
Is it that I like his rough, wild, and unhygienic nature? Or is it something else I like about him?
She thought hard for a while, but couldn't come up with an answer.
But this feeling isn't bad either. Anyway, let's just keep going like this.
I don't want to spend my whole life with a cold, lifeless memorial tablet.
There was a gentleness in her eyes that she hadn't noticed.
Gu Changzheng looked up and met her gaze, which she hadn't had time to look away from.
He clicked his tongue, his throat bobbing.
"Lu Huaijiao, don't you know that your gaze is against the rules?"
