Chapter 72: Delivering Meals

Wang Yazhi put down her needlework, "Xiaoxiao, Gu Gongan is actually a very good man. If you really like him, I won't break you up. It's just that...his temperament is definitely not something that an ordinary family can raise. I am mainly worried that you will be wronged because of the inappropriate family background."

Yuan Xiao is of course very outstanding, but this kind of excellence cannot change the older generation's concept of family background.

Not to mention that they are still in Qushui County now, even if they settle down in the capital in the future, in the eyes of others, they are still mud legs.

Wang Yazhi is not inferior, who is more noble than who?

It's just that this concept is difficult to eliminate. She is mainly worried that Yuan Xiao will be wronged.

Yuan Xiao paused and stared at the things on the ground in a daze.

She really didn't think that far ahead. Her liking for Gu Lanting actually started with that face that she never got tired of looking at. It wasn't to the point where she couldn't help but be deeply in love with him.

She put aside the thoughts in her mind and took the things into the kitchen, "Don't worry, mom, I know everything."

Yuan Xiao didn't cook much, and she estimated that Gu Lanting couldn't eat heavy food now, so she planned to bring some chicken soup over at noon and cook some lean meat and pork liver porridge.

The chicken soup was simmered slowly over a low fire, and it was noon when it was ready.

Yuan Xiao went out with her lunch box. The sun was so bright that her cheeks turned red soon.

She had always wanted to buy a bicycle, but she had money but couldn't find a source of goods.

Yuan Xiao was not a person who sweated easily, and when he arrived at the hospital, he only had a light sweat on his back.

She walked to the door of Gu Lanting's ward and bumped into Doctor Lan coming out.

Doctor Lan was stunned for a moment, and saw the lunch box in her hand, "Little girl is here? Come in."

He opened the door considerately. The people who delivered the food were all gathered together, and he had to stay to watch the show.

Yuan Xiao walked in with things and saw that there was already another girl in the ward, holding the same lunch box in her hand.

Yuan Xiao was stunned. It turned out to be Pei Yun!

At the same time, Pei Yun also saw Yuan Xiao and widened his eyes, "Why are you here! What are you doing in here?"

Gu Lanting was originally happy, but when he heard Pei Yun's words, the pressure dropped a lot.

He stared at Yuan Xiao, as if he was worried that she would suddenly disappear: "Doctor Lan said you came here yesterday?"

Yuan Xiao nodded, "I made some chicken soup for you, and added a few slices of ginseng. It will help your wound heal faster."

Pei Yun was dissatisfied when she saw that she ignored him, and immediately stepped forward to snatch the lunch box from Yuan Xiao's hand.

Yuan Xiao dodged to the side and lifted the lunch box high, "Miss Pei seems to like stealing people's things?"

The previous forced sale was no different from robbery.

Gu Lanting frowned, his eyes full of impatience, and said in a cold tone: "Miss Pei, please respect yourself."

Pei Yun pouted and stamped her feet, "Brother Lanting, I brought you food first, how can you eat what others make."

Gu Lanting raised his eyelids and looked at her coldly, and slowly uttered a word: "Get lost."

Yuan Xiao didn't even look at Pei Yun's face, he only heard her curse fiercely, opened the door and ran out and slammed the door.

She poured out the chicken soup inside for Gu Lanting, and the rich aroma overflowed, making people's lips and teeth salivate.

"How do you know Pei Yun?"

Yuan Xiao turned around with chicken soup in his hand and told him that Pei Yun wanted to buy her satin at the textile factory.

Gu Lanting frowned, with a hint of hostility in his eyes.

He is just a branch of the Pei family, but anyone can show off.

He secretly kept this in mind, "Qushui County is small, and the textile factory is also small. Why don't you give me the cloth, and I will help you send it to the capital to sell it."

Yuan Xiao refused: "I have found someone to help me sell it."

It is not possible to open a store now, but it is actually much easier.

Zhao Fubing said that when she worked in the office, she would go to the black market almost every month, but she has been doing it less in recent months. It is obvious that she has turned a blind eye.

It is a matter of time before she can open a self-employed business. I believe that she will be able to open her own shop soon.

"Here, drink it yourself. I have to go home."

Gu Lanting lowered his eyes and looked at the hot chicken soup in front of him. There was a trace of grievance between his eyebrows. "My hand hurts."

Yuan Xiao was stunned. "Are you injured in your hand?"

He was wearing a hospital gown, and Yuan Xiao really didn't know where he was injured.

Gu Lanting avoided her sight, pursed his lips and hummed.

Yuan Xiao had no choice but to feed him mouthful by mouthful.

The warm chicken soup was like dew sprinkled on a withered plant. Gu Lanting felt comfortable from the inside out. Gu Lanting

had a big appetite. He ate everything Yuan Xiao made, leaving nothing behind. Yuan Xiao, who loved cooking, felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.

Yuan Xiao had just packed up the lunch box when the door opened and the nurse came in with medicine.

"Mr. Gu, it's time to take the medicine."

Gu Lanting took the medicine from the lid and swallowed it with water.

Then he heard the nurse say, "Take off your shirt, I'll apply the medicine for you."

Gu Lanting glanced at Yuan Xiao and said, "No, I'll do it myself."

"How can you see the wound on your back?"

Gu Lanting stared at Yuan Xiao without saying a word.

The nurse pursed her lips and smiled, as if she understood something, "Little girl, then help your target apply some medicine."

Without waiting for Yuan Xiao to explain, the nurse put down the medicine and left.

Gu Lanting took off his shirt by himself, as if Yuan Xiao had already agreed to apply the medicine for him.

Yuan Xiao was so angry that he almost laughed. He had never seen such a shameless person.

"I'm going home, can't you wipe it yourself?"

Gu Lanting glanced at the gauze wrapped around his arm. In fact, this wound was just an abrasion, and it was not impossible for him to do it himself.

But with Yuan Xiao around, he didn't want to do it himself.

Yuan Xiao's face was tense. She always felt that every time Gu Lanting was around, things would develop in a direction that she could not control.

Just like now, she could obviously leave directly, but looking at his expression, she couldn't help but soften her heart.

Is this the halo of the great male protagonist?

She picked up the medicine on the plate, looked at the instructions on the package, and pulled out a few cotton swabs.

Gu Lanting's body temperature was high, like a stove, and Yuan Xiao could feel the heat when he approached.

He has been exercising for many years, and his clothes are wrapped with well-developed tendon muscles, but he is just strong enough and not exaggerated at all. As

Yuan Xiao applied medicine to him, Gu Lanting could almost feel her breath on his back, gently, which made him couldn't help but let his mind wander.

"You're going to start school, right?"

Yuan Xiao hummed. "I've passed the entrance exam for No. 3 Middle School."

Gu Lanting paused, his thick black eyebrows knitted tightly, and the pressure around him became much heavier. "Why No. 3 Middle School?"

"No. 1 Middle School said the quota was full, so I went to No. 3 Middle School."

Of course, Yuan Xiao knew that this was just an excuse.

Gu Lanting didn't ask any more questions, he would naturally check.

He turned around and wrapped his arms around Yuan Xiao's delicate and petite hand. "It's basically decided to resume the college entrance examination. The estimated time is December. Will you take the exam this year?"

According to the information he received, each province will set its own test questions this year, but it may not be the case next year. Relatively speaking, this year's college entrance examination should be easier.

Yuan Xiao wanted to pull his hand back, but he held it too tightly, and he couldn't pull it out after several attempts.

"I'm not participating this year!"
