Chapter 37: The corners of the mouth are harder to suppress than AK
When she got up in the morning, Gu's mother made breakfast, which included basic corn porridge, yellow flour buns left over from yesterday, and braised pork offal.
That is, during breakfast in the morning, both Mother Gu and Gu Ningning noticed that Gu Nan always had a smile on his face.
The expressionless face that had been frozen for thousands of years was actually smiling.
Although the smile was faint, it still felt very abnormal.
I had an inexplicable feeling. Was it possible that Gu Nan was possessed by some strange creature when he went up the mountain to hunt last night?
Otherwise, how could such a dull person feel so happy?
Gu Ningning couldn't help but asked directly.
"Second brother, why are you grinning so foolishly today? Is there something good going on?"
After hearing this, Gu Nan realized that he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
He coughed twice and said, "Nothing! Eat your meal!"
After quickly finishing his breakfast, Gu Nan went to work.
"Mom! Is my second brother acting a little weird? Why have I never seen him smile like this before?"
Mother Gu recalled that Li Ergou came over yesterday, and wondered if he had caught something big last night and made a lot of money?
But before, the second son often went hunting and caught big fish and made money, but I never saw him smile like this.
"Are they dating?" Gu's mother just murmured casually.
This actually scared Gu Ningning.
"No way, how can the second brother find a partner when he looks like he doesn't want anyone to approach him? Didn't all the women who were interested in him get scared away by him?"
Hearing what Gu Ningning said, Gu's mother was also helpless. It was indeed true.
Especially since his family's background is not good now, some of the female educated youth who went to the countryside to work were quite attentive to Gu Nan before they knew his family's background. However, once they knew that his family was sent down to the countryside, they all stayed away from him.
Su Niannian is an exception!
But such a good girl should not look down on her dull son.
But Gu Ningning seemed to suddenly think of something, her eyebrows curved and she smiled.
"Why are you laughing too? Is this laughter contagious?" Mother Gu looked at her little daughter and stared at Gu Ningning.
"If my second brother is dating someone, could it be Sister Nian Nian? She doesn't seem to dislike our family at all."
"When she helped me the day before yesterday, she knew that my family background was not good. She also kept telling me that it was not my fault and told me not to care too much about other people's opinions."
"Mom, I like Sister Nian Nian very much. It would be great if she could be my second sister-in-law."
When Gu Ningning thought that her second sister-in-law was Su Niannian, she felt inexplicably happy.
When Gu's mother heard what Gu Ningning said, she certainly hoped so, but in the final analysis, his family was not worthy.
"Eat quickly, it's getting cold!" Gu's mother interrupted the topic.
"Okay! After we finish eating, I'll heat up some Chinese medicine for my mother." Gu Ningning also discovered something, that is, last night, after her mother drank the Chinese medicine prepared by Su Niannian, she hardly coughed all night.
He coughed a lot throughout the night, and Gu Ningning was woken up several times.
At first she would ask how her mother was doing.
But later, she realized that every time she asked, her mother would be afraid that she would worry, so she would always give a perfunctory answer or even force herself to cough, which was even worse.
So after a while, even if Gu Ningning was woken up by her mother's cough at night, she would not ask anything.
Instead, he secretly observed for a while, and after making sure nothing happened, he continued to sleep.
On the other side, Gu Nan met Li Ergou after coming out of his house.
Seeing that his brother Nan seemed to be in a good mood, Li Ergou hurriedly went to greet him with a smile.
"Brother Nan, why didn't you come to see me last night? I have my donkey cart ready."
"I didn't catch it yesterday, I'll go tonight." Gu Nan suppressed the smile.
This kind of smile is indeed too abnormal. If others see it, they will definitely think too much.
However, as long as the little girl appeared in his mind, he couldn't suppress the smile.
What should I do? I feel so happy.
This was an unprecedented feeling, and he could only force himself not to think about the little girl.
But what if you can’t control your brain?
"Oh... I saw you were so happy today, so I thought you had caught it and put it in the cave in the back mountain..." Li Ergou was a little disappointed.
Because every time Gu Nan hunted a wild boar or a robe, he would ask him to take it to the county town to sell it in a donkey cart.
Gu Nan was also very generous and would always give a portion of the money to Li Ergou.
Li Ergou has always been grateful to Gu Nan because of this.
On the other side, at the educated youth point, Su Niannian got up to wash up, and she always felt that Huang Yingying was always stealing glances at her.
I always feel that this guy has nothing good to say.
Then, Huang Yingying and Zhao Sulan were seen talking in low voices.
After hearing this, Zhao Sulan's eyes widened.
It was like hearing some shocking news.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, she has no self-respect at all, sneaking out in the middle of the night to meet a wild man."
"What a pity! You didn't see who the wild man was! You don't know which country boy he was, or maybe one of the educated youth?"
Zhao Sulan lowered her voice and asked Huang Yingying.
But Huang Yingying would never know, but she knew that Su Niannian must have a strange man outside, and it didn’t matter who he was!
The important thing is that once her reputation is ruined, no one will think about her Gu Nan anymore.
Moreover, since she knew that Su Niannian had no self-respect, she must be more careful to completely ruin Su Niannian's reputation.
The possibility of her and Gu Nan being together was forever eliminated.
In the morning, the big pot meal for the educated youth was still corn porridge, steamed corn bread and pickles.
Zhao Sulan and Huang Yingying made dumpling soup, but it was far less delicious than what Su Niannian had made before.
There is no fragrance at all.
Su Niannian used the leftover braised pork soup from yesterday and cooked some noodles.
Song Zhaodi sat on a bench, slurping the noodles in her hand, her eyes curved with a smile.
"Nian Nian, you are so amazing. How come everything you make smells so good!"
"I feel like it's great to meet you!" Song Zhaodi looked at Su Niannian with happiness in her eyes and said solemnly.
"Eat quickly! Then go to work!"
Su Niannian also started to eat the noodles with a slurp.
Today, Su Niannian was in a good mood since she got up, because her relationship with Gu Nan had made a qualitative leap.
Many of the educated youth standing by were envious of Song Zhaodi. The food here was completely different from the communal meals.
After Song Zhaodi and Su Niannian finished eating, they washed the dishes and prepared to go to the threshing ground to collect their work points for today.
As soon as he walked out of the educated youth site, Lu Xingguang put down his chopsticks and quickly chased after him.
"Song Zhiqing, Su Zhiqing, wait a moment." Lu Xingguang's voice came from behind them. They stopped and looked back.
When Su Niannian saw Lu Xingguang jogging towards her, a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes.
