Gu Changqing stroked the hand that supported her and felt very happy. It was just that it had calluses. If it had no calluses, it would be so much softer. He would have to spend more money to keep his partner white in the future.
"Let's go." Gu Changqing said.
Bai Ruozhen didn't look up, "Yeah."
Gu Changqing smiled and walked in front, while Bai Ruozhen and his young wife followed behind.
After knocking on the door, Gu Changlan came over to open it, "Zhenzhen is here."
"Hello, Sister Changlan." Bai Ruozhen called out obediently.
Gu Changlan waved her hand and said, "Why call me Sister Changlan? It's so strange. Just call me Fourth Sister."
Bai Ruozhen felt a little embarrassed, but still called out, "Fourth Sister."
"Oh." Gu Changlan was very happy, "What a good girl." It's just that her eyesight is not good. How could she fall in love with this little ancestor of her family?
Gu Changqing was quite cheerful, "Fourth sister, let's eat first."
Gu Changlan smiled and said, "Let's eat."
Gu Changlan lived in a single dormitory. Besides a single bed, there was only a small wardrobe in the room. She cooked in the shared kitchen outside. But since Bai Ruozhen was coming, she prepared a sumptuous meal. She set up a small table with two benches. "Changqing, you and Zhenzhen sit on the edge of the bed," Gu Changlan said.
Bai Ruozhen's face turned even redder.
However, Gu Changqing was very satisfied with this arrangement and felt that his fourth sister was a really good person.
"Zhenzhen, sit down and eat first. After dinner, I will take you out to play." Gu Changqing smoothed the edge of the bed and asked Bai Ruozhen to sit down.
Seeing that Gu Changlan and Gu Xiaoli had already taken the stool, Bai Ruozhen had no choice but to sit on the edge of the bed.
Gu Changlan’s cooking skills are average, but she serves a lot of meat, including braised pork, spare ribs, and half a chicken, and the staple food is a large pancake.
After the meal, Bai Ruozhen and Gu Changlan became familiar with each other, and the four of them had a great time chatting.
After dinner, Gu Changqing wanted to take them out to play. Gu Changlan originally didn't plan to go with Gu Xiaoli to be a light bulb, but Bai Ruozhen was thin-skinned and looked at Gu Xiaoli longingly. Gu Xiaoli couldn't bear it anymore and went with them to be a light bulb.
In fact, there is nothing much to see in the county town. You can just go to the department store to buy clothes and fabrics. But Gu Changlan is a fabric salesperson herself. As she said just now, she will buy fabrics when she goes to work tomorrow. Today, she will go shopping for other things.
Gu Changqing already had an idea in mind, so he took them to the watch counter.
"I want this Plum brand ladies' watch." Gu Changqing said, pointing to a small and exquisite watch in the middle.
The salesperson was also familiar with Gu Changlan and said with a smile, "Oh, did you earn your salary to buy a watch for your sister?"
Gu Changqing looked at his fourth sister with disdain, "She has her own money, why would she need me?"
"Is that for your sister?"
Gu Changqing was even more disgusted. "She wants to wait until she finds a partner and then have that partner buy it for her. I bought it for my partner."
The salesperson looked at Bai Ruozhen in surprise, "Is this your partner?"
"Humph, not so great." Gu Changqing said proudly, "This is my partner. When we reach the right age, we will get married."
"Brother Changqing." Bai Ruozhen was so embarrassed that she could hardly raise her head. Who agreed to marry him? He was so annoying.
Gu Changqing stopped while he was ahead and pointed at the watch and said, "Hurry up."
The salesperson smiled and took out the watch to show him. Bai Ruozhen pulled Gu Changqing's clothes and said, "Brother Changqing, there's no need to buy me such an expensive thing. I don't need it."
"It may be useful." Gu Changqing ignored her objection and quickly took out his money and ticket and asked the salesperson to issue a receipt.
Bai Ruozhen was anxious, "Really, there's no need."
"Hey, Sister Zhenzhen, if he wants it, just take it. I want it but he won't give it to me. It would be a waste if I don't want it." Gu Xiaoli said.
"But..." She hasn't officially agreed to be in a relationship yet, and they're not married yet, so what should she do with such a valuable item?
"It's okay, Zhenzhen, he has money, let him buy it." Gu Changlan also felt that it was no big deal. Although more than one hundred yuan was a lot and expensive, it was worth it for the sake of marrying a wife.
As he was speaking, the salesperson had already wrapped the watch and handed it to Gu Changqing.
Gu Changqing opened the package and said, "Zhenzhen, let me put it on you."
Bai Ruozhen was a little unhappy and turned his head away, "I don't want it." Then he walked out.
"What's wrong?" Gu Changqing was a little confused.
Gu Xiaoli held him back and sighed, "Sister Zhenzhen must have felt it was inappropriate for you to buy such an expensive item when you two aren't married or engaged, so that's why she refused to accept it."
"That's why." Gu Changqing laughed, "We'll get engaged when we get back."
Gu Changqing picked up his watch and chased after him, "Zhenzhen."
Bai Ruozhen stood at the door and said angrily, "Brother Changqing, you can't do this."
"What?" Gu Changqing said.
Bai Ruozhen didn't look at him. "We are just dating now, not engaged or married. How can I return the favor if you buy me such an expensive thing?"
Gu Changqing was stunned at first, then ecstatic, "You agree to be with me?"
"If I don't agree to be with you, do you think I can come with Xiaoli?" Bai Ruozhen pouted.
Gu Changqing really wanted to hug her and kiss her, but he didn't dare to do so in public. If he really kissed her, he would probably be paraded in the streets that afternoon.
"Zhenzhen, I will definitely treat you well." Gu Changqing said.
Bai Ruozhen nodded, "Yeah."
Gu Changqing added, "I will definitely treat you well. It's only a matter of time before we get married, right? In that case, take this watch. I'll send a telegram to your parents later to tell them we're getting engaged."
Bai Ruozhen looked at him in surprise, "Are you crazy? I'm only seventeen today, and my parents have never met you. Do you think my parents will agree to our engagement?"
It seems so.
Gu Changqing immediately lost his temper. "Well, how about we take some time off and go to your house?"
Bai Ruozhen shook his head. "Don't be impatient. Besides, you'll be back at work soon. It wouldn't be nice to ask for leave right after you start. And since the wheat harvest is almost here, the team leader won't let you take leave. Let's talk about it later."
Although he was reluctant to agree, Gu Changqing still agreed, "Okay, but when you are done with your work, we will go to your house. I want to propose marriage."
Bai Ruozhen felt a little embarrassed and pursed his lips, "Let's talk about it later."
But her red ears told Gu Changqing that she was willing.
Gu Changlan and Gu Xiaoli came out at the right time and asked, "Shall we go to People's Square?"
So the four of them went to People's Square to take a look around.
At noon, the four of them went to a state-owned restaurant for lunch. Gu Changlan made an excuse that he had something to do and left with Gu Xiaoli.
So only Gu Changqing and Bai Ruozhen were left in the group of four.
Gu Changqing was so happy that he went crazy. He was going on a date and finally there was no one to bother him.
But Bai Ruozhen was extremely nervous. Was she going to have a date alone with Gu Changqing? Ah, what should she do?
