Chapter 176 Am I That Kind of Person?
Gu Xixi stared at the opposite side suspiciously.
He Jinglan immediately put away the arc of her mouth, her expression was upright, and her tone was heartbroken:
"Xixi, you and I are as close as sisters, and we have experienced life and death together. Am I the kind of person who waits to see my friends laugh at me or suffer so that I am happy?"
Gu Xixi hesitated for a moment, "...of course you are not that kind of person."
"That's right!" He Jinglan said generously, "I knew you wouldn't misunderstand me."
She looked directly at Gu Xixi and reiterated seriously, "No matter who you are or what happens, I will never cheat you. Do you believe me?"
Although Gu Xixi always felt that something was wrong, she still nodded and said, "Yes, I believe it."
He Jinglan smiled with relief.
What she just said is indeed true.
In the future, with the help of He Jinglan, a big drama is about to be staged. It is true, but it is not (entirely) for the sake of watching the fun.
That guy Mu Nanzhao, isn't he the most dignified and the most patient?
He Jinglan wanted to see how long Mu Nanzhao could hold on with such a strong rival in love, An Qinghe!
Ever since He Jinglan learned of Mu Nanzhao's true feelings and observed that Gu Xixi also had a good understanding with Mu Nanzhao, she has always wanted to help the two friends get together.
He Jinglan could never figure out why Mu Nanzhao and Gu Xixi sometimes had a close atmosphere, and sometimes were so distant that they were worse than strangers.
There seemed to be a screen between the two people. They seemed to be very close, but in fact, no one could break through the screen and touch each other.
He Jinglan felt that this was a rare opportunity and she might as well give it a try.
That night, An Qinghe came out of the toilet and was attracted by the sound of crickets.
"Miss He?"
When An Qinghe saw He Jinglan, he immediately looked around.
He Jinglan smiled and said, "Don't look at it, Xixi didn't come with me."
An Qinghe took two steps back cautiously, "Miss He...what do you want to talk to me about?"
Although he is warm and welcoming, he is also loyal!
He Jinglan saw through his thoughts and said contemptuously, "Don't worry, I don't mean that to you."
"You are so happy. Even if Xixi doesn't have that kind of feeling towards you, I can't possibly steal my sister's girl!"
An Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief and grinned shyly, "You...you figured it out?"
He Jinglan rolled her eyes, "That's not what I came to you to talk about."
She waved to An Qinghe to come closer, and then said a few words in a low voice.
An Qinghe agreed without hesitation, "There's nothing going on in Yunling County recently, and I'm planning to go back later."
After the spring, the Nursery Chamber of Commerce has begun to upgrade and renovate the Pinellia Orchard according to the method left by Gu Xixi.
An Qinghe and several other responsible persons personally oversaw the project from planning to implementation.
After the initial phase was completed, the second phase of flower thinning was also completed five days ago.
So Anqinghe can have at least ten days of leisure.
At this moment, An Qinghe decided to stay longer.
He Jinglan achieved her goal and said seriously, "I'm not trying to match you up with Xixi."
"You can only accomplish things as big as your ability."
"I can only say that if Xixi really loves you, I won't object."
An Qinghe was very satisfied with this explanation.
He smiled and said, "I understand. The one who is close to the water will get the moon first. Water drips through a stone, and even an iron rod can be ground into a needle!"
He Jinglan waved and prepared to go back to the front yard to sleep, but couldn't help frowning and asked, "Has anyone ever told you that your idioms or colloquialisms are strange?"
An Qinghe tilted his head in confusion, "Huh?"
There was no other empty room in the house, so He Jinglan naturally lived with Gu Xixi.
The next day, when it was bright, He Jinglan opened her eyes and saw Xixi was already neatly dressed and looking refreshed.
She propped herself up and yawned, "Have you washed up? You've been working so hard these past few days, why don't you get some more sleep?"
Gu Xixi turned around and said with a smile, "My own bed is still more comfortable. I had a good sleep last night and I feel full of energy."
"You just arrived at a new place, you must not have slept enough, sleep a little longer, I asked Aunt Zhang to save breakfast for you."
He Jinglan hesitated for a moment and fell back onto the bed, "Okay, I'm really too sleepy."
"Where can I find you when I wake up?"
She really wanted to see Gu Xixi's thirty-two acres of land with her own eyes.
Gu Xixi thought, "When you wake up, I may be in the Pinellia Orchard."
"Go find me, and ask if you can't find me."
Gu Xixi's schedule for today is full, so she goes to see the wheat fields first.
Chen Dafu and other hired workers took good care of the wheat.
Looking around, the wheat seedlings are tall and strong, and can be easily distinguished from the wheat seedlings in other nearby fields.
Gu Xixi randomly found a place and squatted down to check the roots of the wheat seedlings and the condition of the soil.
Chen Dafu followed closely and said, "I accumulated fertilizer last winter, and this spring I followed the boss's advice and applied thin fertilizers several times when the seedlings were growing, and they are growing very well indeed."
"So far, no yellow spots have been found, and the leaves are looking very healthy."
“Recently, weeding only needs to be done every two days.”
Gu Xixi nodded, rubbed the dust off her fingers, and stood up. "The wheat seedlings are about to grow. We can increase the frequency of watering from tomorrow."
Chen Dafu wrote it down carefully, "Yes."
He paused, and then continued, "While the boss is away, there are some things that happened. Although they are not a big deal, I think I should report them to you."
Gu Xixi said, "You say."
Chen Dafu pointed to the wheat field not far away and said, "This is Mr. Gu's house."
Gu Xixi had some impression of this, "What strange thing did he do again?"
Chen Dafu said, "Recently, he often came to Dong's wheat field and kept asking why the wheat seedlings on Dong's side grew stronger and had bigger leaves than those planted nearby."
"And if we continue like this, our wheat yield will surely be much higher than others when we harvest wheat in the summer, right?"
"Two days ago, the wooden bucket that Xiao Zheng had just used to water the field disappeared."
"Later, I found it in Master Gu's land."
Gu Xixi was puzzled, "Why did he steal the barrel?"
Chen Dafu said, "We have discussed it together, but we can only guess."
"Would Second Master Gu think that the remaining fertile water in the bucket is the secret recipe for the boss to grow crops?"
"He rinsed the bucket clean with water and must have poured it all over his field."
Gu Xixi smiled and said, "You don't have to keep an eye on him from now on. If he wants to come, just let him go."
Chen Dafu was puzzled, "Why? If we leave it alone, wouldn't it be a bargain for him?"
Gu Xixi looked mysterious, "Their so-called secret recipe is not about fat and water. Not everyone can take it away if they want to."
"The same thing may work for me, but it may not work for others."
Chen Dafu was stunned and couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had never thought of stealing fertilizer.
