Gu Lei looked at Jiang Xiaoqiao and mustered up the courage to ask, "Aunt Jiang, are you angry?"
The little guy's face was full of worry. "Dad didn't mean it. Please don't be angry with him. He's injured and his mind is not clear..."
Listening to the child's over-and-over words, and the concern for her and Gu Xiangbei's relationship in every word, Jiang Xiaoqiao couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.
She wasn't too angry in the first place. Gu Xiangbei was actually quite easy to guess in front of her.
How could Jiang Xiaoqiao not understand him? It was because his leg was injured and he was worried about delaying her, so he wanted to push her away.
Not to mention anything else, just from the panic she felt when she learned that Gu Xiangbei was injured, she knew that Gu Xiangbei meant much more to her than she thought.
Besides, it's not like there's no other solution now. Gu Xiangbei's leg isn't completely hopeless. Why would Jiang Xiaoqiao want to break up with him? Why would she give up on him, such a sweet girl...
She won't let go, huh.
However, Jiang Xiaoqiao decided to teach Gu Xiangbei a lesson.
However, seeing the worried look on the child's face, Jiang Xiaoqiao reached out and gently rubbed Gu Lei's head.
"Shi Tou, don't worry, I'm not angry."
"Really?"
Gu Lei's eyes lit up, and his big eyes looked at Jiang Xiaoqiao brightly.
"Really?" Jiang Xiaoqiao said affirmatively, "But don't tell your father. Just let him think I'm angry. After all, I've been rejected by him time and time again. I don't want to lose face!"
Gu Lei nodded heavily and said, "Aunt Jiang, I know."
Aunt Jiang is such a nice person, but my father actually made her run away with red eyes.
Gu Lei thought to himself: Just listen to Aunt Jiang and make Dad feel a little nervous.
Jiang Xiaoqiao and Gu Lei agreed that she would come to deliver the medicinal food to Gu Xiangbei tomorrow, but she would not go in at that time and asked Gu Lei to pass it on to her.
Just like when Jiang Xiaoqiao injured her foot, Gu Xiangbei avoided him.
Gu Lei nodded and agreed to all of Jiang Xiaoqiao's instructions. He also promised Jiang Xiaoqiao that he would not tell Gu Xiangbei in advance that he would have medicinal food tomorrow.
This is an agreement between him and Aunt Jiang, and Gu Lei will not tell anyone else.
After Jiang Xiaoqiao and Gu Lei said goodbye, they did not return to the educated youth site or go back to work in the fields. Instead, they went to the brigade headquarters to find Gu Weiguo.
When Jiang Xiaoqiao arrived, Gu Weiguo was staring at the accounts sorted out by the brigade.
When he saw Jiang Xiaoqiao, Gu Weiguo's first reaction was to think of Gu Xiangbei's approved marriage application report.
"Xiao Jiang, you didn't go to work today?"
This sentence was just a casual question from Gu Weiguo.
Before this, Gu Weiguo had a feeling of being disappointed with Jiang Xiaoqiao and hoped that she would make progress.
After Gu Xiangbei found Gu Weiguo and asked him to help Jiang Xiaoqiao find a lighter job, Gu Weiguo no longer had any hope that Jiang Xiaoqiao would work hard.
But now, my mood is different from the past few days.
When I think about how they could have lived happily together, and would have gotten married and had children soon...
Can……
But unfortunately, it was his wrong decision that caused Gu Xiangbei to be injured and have a broken leg, and the two young people will be separated because of this.
Suddenly, Gu Weiguo was a little afraid to look Jiang Xiaoqiao in the eye.
Gu Weiguo's mind flashed back to the expression on Gu Xiangbei's face when he mentioned Jiang Xiaoqiao to him several times...
"Captain?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao called Gu Weiguo two or three times, but he didn't respond. He looked at her, but his eyes were unfocused, as if he was thinking about something through her.
"Captain?!"
Gu Weiguo came back to his senses, adjusted his demeanor, and said, "What do you want?"
"It's like this, Captain, I'd like to request to take some time off from work."
Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "I remembered an ancient recipe yesterday. During this time, I want to make some medicinal food for Gu Xiangbei and then go to the mountains to pick some herbs to treat his legs."
After hearing Jiang Xiaoqiao's words, Gu Weiguo pondered for a moment and said, "Well, starting tomorrow, you will go to the clinic and be Lao Zhou's assistant."
"Five work points a day. If you work as an assistant, you'll also have time to prepare medicinal food. Old Zhou is very easy to talk to."
As for the ancient recipe and leg treatment that Jiang Xiaoqiao mentioned, Gu Weiguo didn't take it too seriously.
You know, even a medical genius like Lao Zhou is not sure at the moment, let alone a young man like Jiang Xiaoqiao.
Jiang Xiaoqiao was a little bit unbelievable. She clearly came here to ask for leave, so why was she suddenly arranged to work as an assistant in the health center?
She wanted to struggle a little longer, even though being an assistant at the clinic was indeed an easy job, a prestigious and easy job that was watched by many people in the team.
But Jiang Xiaoqiao didn't want to go. First, she was lazy and it would be best to take leave if possible. Second, Jiang Xiaoqiao was afraid of causing some trouble in the team again.
This is a hot job, and it pays five work points a day. If the people in the brigade find out, they will definitely eat her alive.
"Captain, it's not appropriate for me to go to the clinic, right?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "I'll take half a month, no, a week off. I'll come back to work after seeing how Xiangbei recovers."
Gu Xiangbei looked at her with disappointment. How could Gu Xiangbei fall for such a lazy and ungrateful lesbian?
"It's settled. Go to the clinic and report to Lao Zhou. I'll be there to help right away."
"For the specific work matters, go over there and listen to Lao Zhou's arrangements."
Gu Weiguo said: "Okay, if you have nothing else, go find Lao Zhou. If he doesn't believe me, tell him to come find me."
After saying this, Gu Weiguo turned his gaze back to the account details on the table and pretended to ignore Jiang Xiaoqiao.
Jiang Xiaoqiao pursed her lips and said, okay, then she would go to the clinic first to ask what arrangements Mr. Zhou had made and discuss the medicinal food issue at the same time.
This can be considered another development and progress, Jiang Xiaoqiao comforted herself in this way.
While Jiang Xiaoqiao was on her way to the health center to find Mr. Zhou, Gu Lei returned home. Gu Jinhua, who had been scolding Gu Xiangbei, no longer cared about Gu Xiangbei when she saw him come back, and hurriedly asked about the child.
"Shi Tou, where did you go just now? Did you chase after your Aunt Jiang?"
Gu Xiangbei in the room secretly pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"Yes, I had a conversation with Aunt Jiang."
Gu Lei was very excited after knowing that Jiang Xiaoqiao was not really angry with Gu Xiangbei, and even touched his head and made an agreement with him.
But now this excitement has to be hidden. Aunt Jiang said that this is a secret between the two of them.
Gu Jinhua was so anxious that she didn't notice that the child was in a bad mood.
"Shi Tou, is your Aunt Jiang in an okay mood?" Gu Jinhua asked.
