Yu Mingxiang didn't believe it, "Really?"
"Of course it's true, what else would it be?"
Gu Guanhai looked at her and said, "Otherwise, what do you think I want to achieve with this? To force you to marry me?"
Yu Mingxiang: "..."
For a fleeting moment, she did indeed think that way.
Gu Guanhai took in her expression and shook his head, looking hurt.
"I never imagined that in your heart, I was that kind of person."
He sighed and said, "Yu Mingxiang, a gentleman is open and honest, while a petty person is always worried and anxious. Although I can't be considered a gentleman, I'm not a complete scoundrel either, so..."
You can rest assured!
"Your secret is between you and me. As long as you don't reveal it to outsiders, I guarantee that this matter will never be uttered by me."
Yu Mingxiang: ...
She didn't look too happy after being implied to have a petty mind.
Seeing this, Gu Guanhai nudged her arm and said, "Let's go! Let's go home and stew some chicken."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang looked down at the old hen in her hand.
"Eat, eat, all you ever do is eat!"
She glared at him, then said casually, "This chicken was given to me by my daughter's in-laws. Why should I give it to you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and walked away.
Seeing this, Gu Guanhai quickly followed, "No..."
He pleaded, "Why won't you give me some? A man who eats another's food is bound to be obliging. If I eat your chicken, I can better keep your secret!"
"You just said you were a gentleman!"
"Did I say that? I clearly said that I am not a gentleman..."
"..."
The heavy atmosphere dissipated.
The two whispered to each other the whole way, only stopping their conversation when they reached the village.
up.
When I was almost home.
Yu Mingxiang stopped and looked at Gu Guanhai, calling out, "Gu Guanhai."
Gu Guanhai: "Hmm?"
Will you really keep my secret?
Gu Guanhai: "Talk is cheap. Just look at my actions, isn't that enough?"
Yu Mingxiang: "..."
After he recovers, he will move out of this courtyard, and then...
What does she think?
Yu Mingxiang suddenly felt that there were too many ties between the two of them.
This man's existence is a hidden danger!
That day, Yu Mingxiang was constantly busy with fighting and going to town because her daughter's true identity had been exposed. After returning home, she gave the letter and address to her eldest son.
Her youngest son went to town with her this morning and is tired now.
On the contrary, her eldest son, who had stayed at home all day, was in great shape.
"Go to town and send the letter to your sister at this address."
Yu Mingxiang instructed her eldest son, "Remember to send it by express."
With the twelfth lunar month fast approaching, she worried that the letter would arrive too slowly and her daughter wouldn't receive it before returning home.
"Mom, don't worry!"
Qin Weiguo responded, put on his thick cotton-padded coat, took the letter, and went out.
No sooner had he left than the carpenter uncle arrived at the Qin family's house in a wheelbarrow, pushing a large bath tub.
Yu Mingxiang looked at the finished bathtub in shock, "It's done so quickly?"
Bath tubs are different from other furniture; they need to be waterproof and airtight, requiring multiple coats of paint.
"Isn't this what Guanhai needs?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Carpenter smiled and said, "If Guanhai needs it, I'll definitely take it to heart."
"Don't worry, Dr. Yu, I didn't miss a single step in the process of reinforcing and painting this bathtub. To make the paint dry faster, I even lit a fire to keep it warm, ensuring that not a drop of water leaks out. It works very well!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang was speechless.
In the winters of Northeast China, firewood is a lifesaver.
The carpenter uncle was willing to use firewood to heat the bath tub, which shows he really cared.
