Chapter 68 Dreaming big?



As soon as she got home, Gu Yanbai took the marriage certificate from her bag.

They claimed they were afraid she would lose it.

He first found a clean cookie box, wrapped the two marriage certificates in a clean piece of fine cotton cloth, and solemnly put them into the box.

Then it was placed in the corner of the wardrobe.

Seeing his actions, Su Nianxue suddenly felt that she might have been a bit perfunctory.

"Oh, sister-in-law, you're back?" Just as I finished packing my things, I heard Gu Yanliu's voice from outside the door.

"Yes, I'm back."

"Come back earlier from the fields next time; it's so hot today!"

Seeing that she was covered in sweat, Su Nianxue smiled and poured her a tub of cooled boiled water.

“I went with my older brother, but he didn’t come back, so I stayed with him for a while longer.”

My older brother is a hardworking person, so I didn't say much.

Su Nianxue expressed her understanding, saying that Gu Yansong was a hardworking and honest farmer.

Over the years, he has managed all of the Liu family's land single-handedly.

He really couldn't get used to being suddenly idle.

Besides, he's been feeling a bit down these past few days, so it would be good for him to go and work in the fields.

After all, once people get busy, they don't have time to think about those messy things.

The three of them had just finished eating, and Gu Yanbai was clearing the dishes and chopsticks from the table towards the kitchen.

Then a bicycle came into the yard.

The man wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Yanbai, shall we go to the county this afternoon? You can go and take a look too."

Gu Yanliu quickly went to the kitchen and poured him a jar of water. "Brother Mingjie, come and have some water!"

Zhou Mingjie took the jar from her hand and laughed, "Our Yanliu sister really knows how to care for people. I was thirsty!"

Su Nianxue knew he was her friend and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Why don't you eat at our place?

Zhou Mingjie quickly waved his hand, "Sister-in-law, don't bother, I've already eaten before I came!"

After Zhou Mingjie finished speaking, he glanced at Gu Yanbai.

He bragged a lot to him, saying that at home he was waited on hand and foot.

His wife took very good care of him.

But looking at the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, and the apron he was wearing, this... seemed to be a little different from his description.

No, that's not right. It's not just a little bit different; there's a significant discrepancy.

Look how well this apron is tied! The elastic and length are just right. You can tell at a glance that you do this a lot.

Tsk tsk!

Gu Yanbai remained calm and, meeting his teasing gaze, naturally removed the apron tied around his waist.

"Your sister-in-law wasn't feeling well, so I helped her tidy up."

In this sweltering heat, the dishes will probably go bad if they're not washed.

I can't stand things that are too dirty!

Zhou Mingjie...

He didn't say anything, so why is he in such a hurry to explain?

Don't you know there's a saying in this world: "Trying to cover up only makes things more obvious"?

However, he knew him well; Gu Yanbai was a man who valued his pride above all else, so he didn't expose him.

"Yeah, I know. You're such a fussy person. Sometimes you're so clean you don't even look like a man."

Gu Yanbai...

Is he sure that's a compliment?

"Who says no man is man!"

You think everyone's like you, smelly all the time, doesn't like washing their feet, doesn't like...

"Yanbai, that's enough!"

Look at what he's saying! Doesn't he have any pride? Saying this in front of a woman.

Gu Yanbai shut his mouth at the opportune moment, glanced at Su Nianxue, and Su Nianxue tactfully said...

"I'll help you pack your luggage!"

Gu Yanbai glanced at Zhou Mingjie with a hint of smugness in his eyes.

Zhou Mingjie was speechless. Why was this person becoming more and more childish?

It's like he has a wife?

He didn't want to look for it, otherwise, given his appearance and physique, how could he have gotten ahead of everyone else?

There's one thing Gu Yanbai can't compare to: he's good with words!

He knows how to make girls happy!

Unlike Gu Yanbai, who can make people furious with just one word.

Soon, Su Nianxue finished packing her luggage and said, "Just like last time, I packed three sets of clothes for you."

Gu Yanbai and Zhou Mingjie quickly rode away on their bicycles.

Su Nianxue closed the door and had a comfortable sleep.

After waking up, he started grinding tofu with Gu Yanliu.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, the two sisters-in-law and Wang Erya went to town together.

Their tofu had already accumulated a certain number of repeat customers, and since she didn't make much, she quickly sold out more than half of it.

"Hey, Xiaoxue, your business is doing pretty well!"

A few people were leisurely fanning themselves with straw hats when two figures, one tall and one short, blocked their stall.

If it wasn't Wang Lanhua and her eldest son, then who was it?

Su Nianxue casually lifted her eyelids. "Why are you here? Have you finished working in the fields?"

Wang Lanhua, seemingly oblivious to the coldness in her eyes, continued speaking to herself.

"Isn't it because your two younger brothers are making a fuss about wanting to eat meat?"

Your dad asked me to come to town and buy some to take back, so they can have a taste.

Seeing that Su Nianxue ignored her, she didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and took a bowl out of the basket.

"We haven't had tofu for quite a while, so please scoop some out for us to try too!"

It seems they came prepared; even the way they picked up the bowl was so natural.

She was shameless by nature, so Su Nianxue ignored her and simply gave her a piece of tofu.

"Go away! Don't disturb my business."

Wang Lanhua glanced at the canvas bag on her body and said with a smirk, "Nianxue, it's so hot today."
