Zhiyuan was helpless. He did not wait for Lin Qingping to come back to cook for him. Instead, he cooked a bowl of deluxe noodles, eggs, vegetables, and even a braised chicken leg - these were snacks that Lin Qingping made specially for him and Xiaomai, as a food reserve for them to eat whenever they were hungry.
Just this bowl of noodles made his uncle Gu covetous. If he hadn't protected it closely, he was really worried that his braised chicken leg would be snatched away by his uncle Gu.
When Gu Juncheng was not around, everything seemed to be quiet.
But everything seems different again.
Even Gu Youlian complained to Lin Qingping, "What's wrong with Lifen's behavior these days? She's either breaking bowls or mistaking salt for sugar. She's totally distracted."
Lin Qingping knew why, and smiled, "You will find out slowly."
"Slowly?" Gu Youlian didn't know what this slowly meant.
Slowly means that you will know it when Gu Juncheng comes back.
However, before Lin Qingping waited for Gu Juncheng to return, she received a letter from him.
Lin Qingping: ???
When did he become so romantic? He even wrote to her from the same city?
She took the letter from the postman and unfolded it in the sunset, seeing the strong handwriting and serious wording.
Comrade Lin Qingping:
Hello, letter.
First of all, I want to apologize for my rudeness last week.
Today, the purpose of writing this letter is not only to admit my mistakes to you, but also to reflect on them with you.
When Lin Qingping saw this, he was full of questions: Is this letter a way to carry out criticism and self-criticism?
She continued to read: Comrade Lin Qingping, you and I are husband and wife, the closest people in the world, but we have become estranged because of an outsider. This is not right and is not conducive to our unity. Such things should not happen again in the future, okay? Of course, I have to take the main responsibility for this matter, but can you also be more careful in the future? It is very inappropriate for me to stay alone with the young woman, what do you think?
I won't be home this week, looking forward to your reply.
The signature was also a few serious words - Husband: Gu Juncheng.
In this entire letter, the word "husband" is the only thing that tells us that this is a letter from a husband to his wife. The rest is no different from a meeting.
Lin Qingping naturally had to reply, but it was not her style to write in such a formal manner. She grabbed a pen, found a piece of letter paper, and quickly wrote a line of words: Call me dear, and I will forgive you.
Then, I put the letter in an envelope and dropped it into the mailbox the next day.
Letters from the same city should arrive very quickly. Taking into account the time for review at the military academy, it should reach Gu Juncheng on the third day at the latest, and it should take at least a week to get a reply from Gu Juncheng.
But no.
Lin Qingping thought of many possible reactions that Gu Juncheng would have when he received her reply, and secretly found them amusing, but she was not sure which one it would be.
Another week passed, and she still hadn't received the letter, so she waited until Gu Junben himself returned home.
He came back a little late. All the shops were closed and Lin Qingping was about to lock the doors and go to bed. Someone returned home clad in darkness.
When their eyes met, he immediately turned his head away, coughed twice, and said nothing.
Lin Qingping looked at him with a smile, and he became more reluctant to look back.
"Gu Juncheng." Lin Qingping called him with a smile.
He glanced at her.
"Are you struggling over how to call me dear?" she asked with a smile.
Gu Juncheng's dark face suddenly turned red, but fortunately he was dark-skinned and it was night, so it was not very noticeable.
"Okay, I won't forgive you if you don't call me. I'm going to bed." Lin Qingping said and went upstairs.
Zhiyuan came out after she left, tiptoed, and asked his uncle Gu, "You two had a fight and haven't reconciled yet?"
"Go away, go to sleep. What do you know, kid?" Gu Juncheng waved his hand in disdain.
Zhiyuan said, "How come I don't understand? I understand! I tell you, my mother likes to hear nice things. If you say a few words that she likes to hear, she will definitely forgive you."
She loves to hear that...
Gu Juncheng's face turned red.
"You don't even know what my mother likes to hear?" Zhiyuan widened his eyes.
Gu Juncheng glared at him, "Don't you know?"
Zhiyuan raised his head proudly, "Of course I know!"
"Tell me about it." Gu Juncheng was amused by his behavior.
"I won't tell you!" Zhiyuan snorted, "If I tell you, wouldn't that be cheating? You want my mom to pay attention to you, but you don't want to work hard, there's no such good thing!"
Gu Juncheng was just about to kick him, so this guy came here to watch the fun?
Zhiyuan slipped back to his room. Gu Juncheng looked at the half-open door upstairs and the warm light inside the door, and his scalp tightened.
But you have to go upstairs anyway!
When I entered the room, Lin Qingping was already asleep with his back to the door, but he was definitely not asleep yet!
Gu Juncheng hesitated for a while, and suddenly an idea came to him. He opened a notebook on the table and wrote on it: Can I have braised chicken legs tomorrow too?
After writing it, he handed it to Lin Qingping.
Lin Qingping took one look, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Gu Juncheng: …
Finally, he took the notebook back and wrote three words at the beginning of the sentence: Dear.
Then hand over the notebook.
Lin Qingping not only took the notebook, but also the pen. He quickly wrote a few words under his sentence and threw it back.
Gu Juncheng took a look and said: Okay, muah.
???
What does muahda mean?
Although Gu Juncheng is dull, it does not stop him from being studious. After writing a line of words, he handed it over again: What does this "miaomiaoda" mean?
Lin Qingping held back his laughter, picked up a pen and wrote on the paper: It means "really delicious".
Gu Juncheng seemed to be thinking about something.
Although the rift between them was still unclear, Lin Qingping kept her word and would forgive him as long as he called her "dear".
So, the next morning, she got up and braised the chicken.
Gu Juncheng went to buy the chicken early in the morning, and also bought a pig's trotter and two pig ears.
Lin Qingping instructed him to clean the meat, and then she started to stew it.
Two hours later, she opened the pot and the whole house was filled with the fragrance, which attracted Zhiyuan who was doing his homework.
Lin Qingping also has a secret seasoning, and the red chili peppers mixed with oil are simply mouth-watering.
While mixing the food, Lin Qingping stuffed a piece of pig ear into Gu Juncheng's mouth and asked him, "Is it delicious?"
Gu Juncheng nodded, "Yay."
Zhiyuan, who was waiting for the chicken drumstick, said: …
How come these two are like this after they reconciled? My Uncle Gu is so corny!
Lin Qingping would now and then bring up something that happened decades later, and Zhiyuan had gotten used to hearing it. For example, when he performed well in school and received praise, Lin Qingping would be happy and would say: You are awesome, muah.
Then, even a child like him was too embarrassed to say "moo moo da" all the time, but his uncle Gu had said it at least ten times in the morning! Did Lin Qingping cast a spell on his uncle Gu?
