Fortunately, Shushu didn’t drink it in one gulp, otherwise he would have been seriously injured.
If you drink this boiling water in one gulp, your throat will probably be burned.
"Let it cool down before drinking. It's too hot now." Gu Mingjing took the cup in front of her and put it aside, then took another bowl and served her a bowl of soup.
"You can drink some soup first to moisten your throat."
Jianshu didn't refuse. After taking it, he took a sip and found it quite sweet and not greasy.
"It tastes good." She nodded in affirmation.
Gu Mingjing smiled and said as he took the bowl of soup, "If you like it, drink more. I will make it for you later."
He served a bowl of soup to Gu Zhan and Li Gang respectively and placed it in front of them, and finally served a bowl for himself as well.
"It's okay to drink it occasionally. Drinking it often will make you sick of it." Jianshu put down the soup bowl and picked up the chopsticks to eat.
After all, it is a sweet soup with rock sugar in it, so you definitely can't drink too much.
"Okay, then I'll make another soup for you next time." Gu Mingjing said quickly.
"Okay, I'll wait then."
Jianshu met his gaze and smiled at each other.
The two people here were whispering, while Gu Zhan and Li Gang over there were eating attentively, at least that's what it seemed like.
The weather is very cold in winter and the food gets cold quickly. No one talked too much at the table. After all, it is more comfortable to chat by the fire while cracking melon seeds after eating.
After lunch, Gu Mingjing knew that Jianshu always had the habit of taking a nap, and he had no intention of changing this habit.
After washing the dishes and cleaning up the mess, he wiped the moisture off his hands with a towel and said, "Shushu, come on, I'll take you to your room for a nap."
Jianshu was yawning with her hands covering her mouth when she heard this and looked over. Is this okay?
Gu Zhan also noticed her sleepiness and said, "Then take Shushu to the room to rest and don't worry about us."
Jianshu hesitated, feeling that this wasn't a good idea. However, her biological clock, formed over a long period of time, wasn't easily altered. Her mind was already starting to feel hazy, and she couldn't keep her eyes open.
"Uncle Gu, I'll go take a nap first and come back to chat with you after I wake up." She didn't have the energy to stay, so she should have a good rest first.
Gu Zhan smiled and nodded in response.
Gu Mingjing took Jianshu to his room, opened the door and walked in.
"Is this your room?" Jian Shu guessed, looking at the layout inside, the clean and tidy desk, and the square tofu blocks on the bed.
This person's style is really too conspicuous.
Of course, the reason why Jianshu made this guess is mainly because it is obvious that someone is living in this room, and it is not a guest room.
It definitely couldn't be anyone else's room except his own.
Gu Mingjing nodded, and afraid that she would misunderstand, he explained: "Although there are many rooms at home, there are no extra quilts. I can only let you rest in my room."
It's winter, and having an empty room is useless. Without a quilt, you will probably freeze to death.
"I slept in your room, what about you?"
"I'm not sleepy right now. If you want to sleep later, just go and squeeze in with Brother Li."
Hearing that he had a place to sleep, Jianshu felt relieved.
He yawned again and waved his hand, saying, "Okay, go ahead. I'm going to sleep."
She really couldn't hold on any longer at this moment.
Watching her take off her shoes and get on the bed, Gu Mingjing covered her with the quilt and kissed her forehead. "Go to sleep. Call me if you need anything."
"Yeah." Jian Shu was buried in the quilt, with only a pair of sparkling eyes showing, and nodded.
Unable to resist Zhou Gong's call, he closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.
Gu Mingjing tightened the quilt for her, stood up and quietly left the room.
Jianshu was not there, so the three men chatted for a while and then went back to their rooms for a nap.
For a moment, the whole yard fell into silence.
With a sleepy look on his face, Jianshu became completely awake.
I stretched myself and vaguely heard some noise outside. I threw back the quilt and got out of bed.
After putting on my coat and walking out, I saw Gu Mingjing sweeping the snow in the yard.
"Are you awake?" Gu Mingjing put down the broom and walked over.
"You didn't rest?"
Gu Mingjing buttoned her coat, his eyelids drooping, his expression serious. "I just woke up a while ago and came out for some fresh air."
Then he walked into the room and started to fold the quilt.
Jian Shu took a comb and while fixing her hair, she asked, "Where are Uncle Gu and the others? Are they up yet?"
It seemed like I didn't hear anything.
"They went to bed late, so it's not ready yet." Gu Mingjing was quick and efficient, and soon, the square ones were almost out again.
"Then let's keep our voices down and not disturb them." Jian Shu lowered his voice.
After cleaning up, the two sat in the living room, warming themselves by the fire and chatting in low voices.
Come to think of it, they barely spoke to each other today, and only now did they have some space to be alone.
The two sat side by side on the sofa, one peeling melon seeds and the other eating them. They tilted their heads slightly towards each other while chatting, and every move was full of affection.
After Gu Zhan and the other person got up, the number of people chatting in the living room increased a lot. They talked about all kinds of family matters and interesting things in life, and it was very pleasant.
In the evening, Gu Mingjing still cooked.
Braised pork, chicken stewed with mushrooms, pickled cabbage and a radish and pork ribs soup.
There are four dishes and one soup. There are fewer dishes than at lunch, but the portions are more substantial.
It gets dark early in winter, so after dinner, Jianshu said goodbye.
Gu Zhan did not try to persuade him to stay. If he did not go back early before it got dark, the road would be difficult to walk on at night.
"It's getting late, I won't keep you any longer. Be careful on the road, and we'll see you tomorrow." Gu Zhan said.
Jian Shu smiled and replied, "When you come tomorrow, I'll cook for you and let you taste my cooking skills."
"Haha, it looks like I'll have a treat tomorrow." Gu Zhan laughed.
Then he patted Gu Mingjing on the shoulder and warned him, "It's getting late. Be careful when you ride your bike on the road. Don't drop Shushu. You have to send Shushu home safely, okay?"
Gu Mingjing was speechless. She was his own girlfriend, could he really throw her away?
But he was too lazy to argue with the old man about this, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I got it."
"It's getting late, let's go." He got on his bike and put one foot on the ground.
Jian Shu said goodbye to the two of them, "Uncle Gu, Brother Li, we'll be leaving first."
"Let's go, be careful on the road." Gu Zhan nodded.
She got in the back seat and waved goodbye, "Goodbye!"
"goodbye!"
"goodbye!"
Gu Zhan and Li Gang stood there waving, watching the bicycle gradually go away and disappear from their sight.
