Chapter 53 What are you doing?
Before going downstairs, Lin's mother had already spread the bedding on the floor. Fortunately, it was the end of August and not yet cold. The two Zhang sisters greeted Xiuzhu and sat on the bedding.
Although Xiuzhu is a little willful in front of her family, she is not the type to bully others.
Now the two guests were sitting on stools, and she was on the bed...
Although my mother had offered me an apology, I still felt a little embarrassed, so I stood up and walked to the dressing table, opened the drawer, and picked out four brightly colored hair flowers.
Nowadays, resources for many things are limited, and young girls like bright colors from head to toe.
She walked over with a smile and handed them to them respectively, "I was injured some time ago and was just discharged from the hospital today, so I have to sleep in bed to recuperate. These little gifts are for you, I hope you don't mind."
Zhang Zhizhi felt a little embarrassed. Her grandfather died early and the two families had not had much contact over the years.
Unexpectedly, my uncle was nostalgic and asked someone to send his eldest granddaughter's wedding gift to my grandmother.
The Lin family lived in the military compound in Beijing City. When they heard that their uncle's two sons also held high positions, their grandmother brought all their unmarried grandchildren over.
I hope to use this opportunity to find a good husband for the girls and a good job for the boys.
Her family lives in the suburbs, which is equivalent to an ordinary small county town. It takes a 4-hour drive one way to the city. This is her first time in the city!
When I saw my uncle's grandfather's two-story detached house, I was even more eye-opening.
The Lin family members were also very welcoming and did not look down on their poverty. The snacks they gave them were so exquisite and delicate that she had never seen them before. She was reluctant to eat them.
Lin's cousin was even more gentle. The silk scarves she gave to her and her cousin were also very valuable and felt better than the ones she had seen in the supply and marketing cooperative.
I'm afraid it's more than grandma's gift money...
Now this fairy-like cousin wants to give her something again, how can she have the nerve to accept it!
"Thank you, Xiuzhu. Our cousin has already given us a silk scarf. You can take this one. We can't accept it. We are the ones who disturbed you in the first place." Zhang Zhizhi returned the thing in his hand to Xiuzhu.
"A happy occasion is always a happy occasion with many people. Grandpa is also very happy that you can come. Just accept it. I made it myself and it's not worth much." Xiuzhu said with a gentle smile.
She quite likes Zhang Zhizhi, who treats people sincerely and with a sense of propriety.
Since Xiuzhu said so, Zhang Zhizhi couldn't refuse anymore, otherwise she would seem petty.
She took the hairpin in her hand and saw that it was more delicate and beautiful than the ones sold in their supply and marketing cooperative. She couldn't believe it and said, "Oh my God, Xiuzhu, you have such a skillful hand."
"It's really something made by fairies. It's so beautiful. Thank you Xiuzhu, I like it very much."
Xiuzhu was very pleased with the compliment, and her smile was tinged with sincerity. "As long as you like it, there are many books on the bookshelf. You can read them if you are bored."
She then placed the snacks made by her mother and the candies sent by Gu Yu in front of them. "I always eat snacks while reading. It's very comfortable."
They are all young girls, who wouldn't like this kind of stylish life?
Upon hearing this, the Zhang sisters walked to the bookshelf, selected a book each, and read it on the bed. Zhang Zhizhi chose "Travel Notes" and read it with gusto.
Zhang Haohao next to her had no intention of reading. She was eating a snack and flipping through the pages absentmindedly.
She was a famous beauty in her hometown, but when she came to Beijing, she saw that although the female comrades on the street were dressed better than her, they were not as good-looking as her.
She is already 18 years old this year, which is a good age. She is confident that she can marry a good man.
As a result, now standing in front of Lin Xiuzhu, she is contrasted with a country girl. Why is God so unfair? Not only was Lin Xiuzhu born in a wealthy family, but she also looks like that.
She raised her head and looked indignantly at the girl who was reading on the bed.
In the afternoon, Xiuzhu ate a lot of snacks freshly made by her mother and drank several cups of tea, secretly enjoying the bohemian afternoon tea in her room.
The downside of drinking too much water is that you can’t help but want to go to the toilet, and now I feel the same again.
She put down the book in her hand, looked at the Zhang sisters and explained, "I'm going to the bathroom, you guys continue reading."
After waiting for the Zhang sisters' response, she gracefully left the room with small and light steps.
Zhang Haohao watched Xiuzhu walk out, her eyes flashed, she stood up and looked around her room. There were four pairs of leather shoes on the shoe rack at the door, black, white, brown, and a pair of beige. She had never seen leather shoes of this color before.
I only have a pair of black leather shoes, which I only wear when I go out.
Zhang Zhizhi frowned as she watched her cousin casually touch other people's things after the host left. Now she saw her walking to the closet and wanted to open it to take a look.
She quickly stood up to stop him, "Well, it's not good to look at Xiuzhu's things without her consent."
"I'll just take a look and not do anything. Just take care of yourself." Zhang Haohao said with some dissatisfaction.
She pushed her cousin aside and opened the closet. She was stunned for a moment. The clothes inside were almost as good as those in the supply and marketing cooperative where they lived. She had never seen any of the styles before, and none of them had patches.
All the skirts inside are over 80% new, and some look like they have never been worn.
Especially the pink skirt hanging there, the color is so beautiful, it would definitely look great if she could wear it, she couldn't help but raise her hand to touch it.
Zhang Zhizhi couldn't stand it any longer, so she grabbed her hand and scolded her harshly, "If you dare to touch me, I will tell the Lin family. If you delay our family's plans, we will beat you to death."
My grandmother favors my younger uncle, so all the good things in the house can be taken by her. In the suburbs, my cousin relies on her good looks and is very arrogant, looking down on ugly women.
Now that I have come to Beijing, there are always people better than you. When I saw Lin Xiuzhu, the appearance that I cared about most in my heart became insignificant. I knew that she would feel uncomfortable.
However, Xiuzhu was gentle and polite to them, she couldn't be so uncultured. It would bring shame to her grandfather and everyone in the Zhang family.
Zhang Haohao gritted his teeth and closed the wardrobe. He kept a sharp note of her in his heart and planned to make things difficult for her when he met her grandmother.
“Boom boom boom…”
There was a knock on the door, and I deliberately opened it before my cousin so as not to attract her attention.

After Gu Yu decided to follow his future wife to Yucheng, he couldn't help but ask when they would leave so that he could arrange his work here in advance.
The main reason is that he misses her so much when he can't see her for a day. Thinking about their intimate meeting tonight, he has to arrange things in Beijing in the next few days and he is busy, so he can't have time to come and see her every day.
Many people came downstairs. He didn't see his mother-in-law, so he said hello to Aunt Lin and went straight up.
Gu Yu was in a good mood. He looked at the door opening with a bewitching smile on his face. His voice was magnetic, "Xiuzhu..."
The person who opened the door was a stranger. He immediately put away the smile on his face, looked inquiringly, and asked politely, "Comrade, where is Xiuzhu?"
Zhang Haohao's face was red at this moment. She looked shyly at the tall man opposite her who was extremely handsome and had a somewhat ruffian temperament. She seemed to hear her own heartbeat that was about to jump out of her throat.
Seeing that she didn't answer him, Gu Yu's face turned cold. He endured his impatience and continued to ask, "This is Xiuzhu's room. Where is Xiuzhu?"
The change in the man's facial expression and his impatient tone brought her back to her senses.
Xiuzhu? Lin Xiuzhu again?
She lowered her head, a flash of unwillingness in her eyes. After two seconds, she looked at the man opposite again with a shy and timid look.
Gu Yu's face darkened completely, and his patience reached its limit. He wanted to go past her and check...
"Gu Yu, what are you doing?"
Xiuzhu came back from the bathroom and saw this scene in the corridor. The beautiful girl was looking at the man opposite her with affection.
And the tall man also walked towards her, as if he wanted to hug her...
