Chapter 12 What is Love?



Zhiyuan took her to the bathroom to see.

The bathroom door was repaired, and she thought that was all. However, when Zhiyuan pushed the door open, she was shocked.

Why is there a shower-like thing in the bathroom?

It is definitely not comparable to the later shower heads. The principle is similar to that of a boiler. A shelf is built high on the wall, and a water tank is made and placed on the shelf. A small boiler heats the water in the tank, and then connected to a water pipe, it becomes a simple shower.

"And this." Zhiyuan led them to see a large wooden barrel coated with tung oil drying in the sun. "Uncle Gu said that we can take a bath in it after it dries."

Bath...bathtub?

Lin Qingping stood there in a daze.

"What are these..." she grabbed Zhiyuan and asked.

Zhiyuan looked at her strangely, "Isn't this what you asked Uncle Gu to do?"

"Me?" Lin Qingping couldn't remember at all.

"Yes!" Zhiyuan tilted his head, "You were drunk yesterday and asked Uncle Gu for these things. Uncle Gu stayed up all night to make them for you."

Lin Qingping was stunned again.

Because of her drunken remark, he stayed up all night to make things for her...

He really is, no matter in his previous life or this life, he is always like this, never saying anything, just doing things silently. In his previous life it was a bicycle, and in this life it is these.

Anyway, no one could guess what he was thinking or why he was so nice to her.

He never said that he liked her, let alone the word love. The only thing he said was "I'm sorry" and "Sorry."

So, all he felt towards her was apology and sorry?

So what was the past between him and Chen Xia?

After she was reborn, many things had changed. For example, Chen Xia had hardly attracted her attention in her previous life, but in this life, he frequently appeared in front of her.

So, Gu Juncheng never touched her since he came back, and even asked for a divorce from her as soon as he got home. Was Chen Xia involved?

I don’t know… and I can’t guess.

No, she quickly realized.

She had already said that she came back in this life to repay her gratitude and to live a good life with Gu Juncheng, so let's live a good life.

As for love or not love this kind of thing.

She has returned from her seventies, is there anything she can't see through?

What's more, she herself doesn't know what love feels like.

She lived to be seventy years old in her previous life, and never loved well.

Before she married Gu Juncheng in her previous life, she had a vision of someone she longed for in her heart, but she never found anyone specifically. After being married to Gu Juncheng for a few years, they became enemies. As for the following decades, it's not that she didn't meet other men, but none of them liked her purely as a person.

The terrible days in the previous life are all over. In this new life, everything has just begun. What is there to think about?

She felt relieved instantly. She just lived like she said before. She didn't know if she could get through the hurdle of his sacrifice, so she would spend the next few years with him.

She came to repay a favor.

When she came to her senses, she found that Zhiyuan had been looking at her.

"What did I say yesterday?" she asked casually.

“You sang.”

Lin Qingping: …

“Well, I also asked Uncle Gu if you look good.”

Zhiyuan was very honest and answered everything Lin Qingping asked clearly.

"Okay, stop talking." Lin Qingping's face turned red. Could she be going any further?

Zhiyuan thought he had said something wrong and immediately lowered his head, "Yes... you were screaming very loudly, I wasn't eavesdropping..."

Lin Qingping: …

My old face got even redder!

What does it mean to shout very loudly?

Seeing Zhiyuan's cowardly look, Lin Qingping's heart softened again.

"I...I'm going to pick some wild vegetables..." Zhiyuan said carefully, picking up a backpack and ready to leave.

Lin Qingping grabbed his backpack.

Zhiyuan became even more scared.

"It's okay, Zhiyuan, I'm not angry." Lin Qingping said calmly, "Don't go picking wild vegetables, come home with me."

She planned to give Zhiyuan some enlightenment. Zhiyuan was very intelligent, so she must let Zhiyuan study hard in this life.

In that era, few people in Gujia Village valued reading. She lived her life again, and no one understood the importance of reading better than her.

But she really never expected that Zhiyuan was indeed smart, but this intelligence exceeded her expectations.

She has experience in counseling children.

In her previous life, she had no children of her own, so she treated her brother's child, her nephew, as her own and even tutored him personally with his homework.

She gave Zhiyuan elementary school courses based on her memories from her previous life.

After finishing the first day's content, she gave Zhiyuan homework, asking him to write down each of the numbers and pinyin he learned that day.

After finishing the arrangement, she went about her business. After a while, she found Zhiyuan playing with a wooden gun.

When she checked the homework, she found that she had indeed written a version of each word, but this version only had one word!

One word of Ocean University took up an entire page!

Zhiyuan seemed to know that he had done something wrong, so he lowered his head and said nothing.

"Zhiyuan, tell me, are you doing this knowingly? Are you blatantly being lazy?" Lin Qingping asked, pointing at the homework.

Zhiyuan lowered his head even lower, then stood in the corner with his head lowered.

Lin Qingping: …

This is really a deep-rooted habit. When I make a mistake, I just stand in the corner.

"Stand first, and then come back and rewrite it for me!" Lin Qingping didn't intend to relax on him when it came to studying.

During the time he was standing in the corner, Lin Qingping did not watch over him and went about his own business.

Go to the fields to pick vegetables and prepare to cook.

In fact, she loves cooking, mainly because she loves delicious food, otherwise she wouldn't have opened a restaurant. It's just that she was deliberately lazy when she was in the Gu family.

When she came back from picking some peppers and vegetables in the fields, she found that there were new people at home - her mother and her brother.

When she entered the room, her brother was drinking a glass of milk, which she had made for Zhiyuan before going to the fields, and she was going to let Zhiyuan drink it after it cooled down a bit.

A large bag of biscuits was opened on the table in front of her mother and her brother. Her brother ate it with milk, and the biscuit crumbs fell all over the floor.

And what is her mother doing?

Talking about Zhiyuan.

"Your father is gone, but you still have your mother, right? Why doesn't your mother come to pick you up? When will your mother come to pick you up? You eat and wear what your family pays you, but your family doesn't send any money to you? Don't you have any other relatives? What's the point of living in someone else's house all the time?"

Lin Qingping heard this as soon as he entered the room, and immediately frowned, "What are you talking about with the child?"

As she said this, she put away the bag of biscuits, leaving only a few pieces, which she put on a plate for them to eat.

Her mother said, "Tsk, what are you doing putting it away? Why don't you let your brother eat a few pieces while your parents-in-law are not at home, and we can take the rest back. You are such a fool. You didn't bring us such a good thing last time when you went back to your parents' home. You only brought a fish. There are plenty of fish in the village stream. Do we still want fish?"
