"Hmm!" She lowered her head, trying to hide the panic in her eyes.
"Aren't you going to help me pack my clothes or something?" he asked quietly, his eyes gleaming.
"Oh, okay!" This request is also reasonable.
She quickly jumped out of bed, opened the wardrobe, took out the neatly folded clothes, and put them into her canvas bag.
Then she stuffed a brand new set of toiletries into her bag.
"I don't know how many days you'll be gone, so I packed three outfits for you. If that's not enough, you can buy some more!"
"Three sets are enough!" He mainly went to check out the locations and such.
Leave the details to Zhou Mingjie.
Anyway, he's been working for him for so many years, and he's very familiar with those jobs.
He had nothing to worry about.
He glanced at his watch, turned to her, and said, "I'm leaving."
I said you're not allowed to go to the fields this afternoon, so you're not allowed to go.
"If you dare go to the fields, I'll deal with you when you get back."
Su Nianxue rolled her eyes at him. See? I knew it. That mouth of his was never good at speaking properly.
"Okay, you can go now!"
Seeing her impatient expression, as if she couldn't wait for him to disappear, Gu Yanbai's teeth started itching again.
If he weren't in a hurry, he would have given her a good beating.
When a man goes out, his wife is always busy packing his luggage and giving him careful instructions.
Who else is like her, needing to be told before they'll pack their own luggage?
Not only do they not worry about him, they can't wait for him to get out of there.
He gritted his teeth, determined to deal with her when he got back.
Gu Yanliu also got up and was about to pick up a hoe and go to the field.
Su Nianxue stopped her, "Yanliu, don't go, let's rest for a while this afternoon!"
Does your shoulder still hurt?
Then you should rest at home!
"I can go by myself." Gu Yanliu was about to carry the hoe away.
"You shouldn't go either. There's only a little bit left. I'll finish it in a little while tomorrow."
"Alright!" Gu Yanliu glanced outside the courtyard. "Sister-in-law, would you like to go up the mountain for a look?"
Su Nianxue thought that since she had nothing better to do anyway, she might as well go for a walk in the mountains. "Let's go!"
The two men, wearing straw hats and carrying baskets, went up the mountain.
It was early summer, and the trees on the mountain were lush and green.
Even under the scorching sun, the wind still carries a cool breeze.
"Sister-in-law, come on, I'll take you to see Grandpa's sheep!" Grandpa Gu is over seventy years old, but he still can't stay idle, so he raises a large flock of sheep.
"good!"
The two arrived at the foot of a small hill, where flocks of sheep were scattered in twos and threes, leisurely grazing on the grass.
There are probably several dozen of them.
They were all plump and strong, and there were even some lambs mixed in.
Grandpa Gu and Gu Yansong were sitting under the shade of a tree talking.
Gu Yanliu called out from afar, "Grandpa, my sister-in-law and I have come to see you!"
Grandpa Gu glanced at them, and his originally serious face immediately broke into a smile. "What brings you two here?"
Su Nianxue pursed her lips. This was only the second time she had seen Grandpa Gu since she got married.
He's always busy, and he doesn't live near them, so it's really not easy to see him.
She laughed and said, "I hurt my shoulder, and he won't let me get down."
So I went up the mountain with Yanliu to take a look.
"Where did you get hurt? Is it serious?" Upon hearing that she was injured, Grandpa Gu's face visibly tensed up.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just accidentally got poked by a tree branch yesterday. He rubbed it with alcohol last night, and it's much better now."
Grandpa Gu was greatly surprised when he heard this. This brat is quite something!
He's only been married a few days, and he already knows how to cherish his wife.
Gu Yanliu wasn't one to hold his temper; he grabbed Su Nianxue's hand and started to leave.
"Grandpa, you and your older brother can talk slowly."
My sister-in-law and I went for a walk in the mountains.
I remember there are two loquat trees on the hill ahead. Shall I go check if they're ripe?
Grandpa Gu waved to them, "Go on, go on!"
Gu Yanliu often runs around in the mountains and is very familiar with the area. She quickly found the two loquat trees.
On the tall loquat tree, hung golden loquats about the size of a thumb.
"Sister-in-law, look, the loquats are all ripe."
Su Nianxue glanced at the height and said, "Yanliu, it's ripe, but how are we going to pick it from this height?"
They didn't bring a knife or anything with them, so they couldn't even cut a stick.
"This is easy, just watch me."
Gu Yanliu spat twice into his palms, gripped the tree trunk tightly with both hands, and pushed off with his legs to climb onto the tree branch.
"Wow, Yanliu, you had this trick up your sleeve."
Almost all the children in the village can climb trees, but most of them are boys; there are very few girls who can climb trees so well.
"That's right. My second brother is better at climbing than me. He used to take me up the mountain often to raid bird nests, climb trees, and catch fish."
It's a pity that he grew up and stopped going up the mountain so often, always wanting to go to town instead. Gu Yanliu said with some disappointment.
However, she was soon drawn to the loquats on the tree, and quickly picked a large bunch of them, throwing them on the ground.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you try it first and see if it's good?"
If they're delicious, let's pick more to take home!
Su Nianxue picked up a loquat from the ground and tasted it. "Mmm, it's really good, quite delicious."
"Okay, then I'll pick more and have my older brother take some back for Huihui to eat."
