"By the way, I've agreed with Sister Xiufang that I'll give her two dollars and fifty cents every month for the next two months, and I'll go to her vegetable garden to pick vegetables from now on." Jianshu mentioned this when he remembered it.
Gu Mingjing nodded without any objection, "Okay, you can make the decision on these matters. You can spend our family's money however you want."
"Then aren't you afraid that I will squander our family fortune? Or run away with the money?" Jian Shu nudged him with his shoulder, his eyes full of cunning.
"Run away with the money? Do you think I'm interested in this little property of mine?" Gu Mingjing turned around, crossed his arms over his chest, his eyes fixed on Jian Shu, his words full of mischief.
Compared to his pitiful savings, his wife is a wealthy woman, okay?
Jian Shu choked, then stiffened his neck and said, "Of course I like it. Every penny is money. I don't mind it!"
"In that case, it's even more impossible for you to run away. After all, if you run away now, you can only get this little money. But if you stay, then all my future salary will be yours. Which one is more profitable? I think Shushu should be able to figure it out, right?" Gu Mingjing pretended to suddenly realize something, then clapped his hands, and slowly spoke to Jianshu.
Jian Shu shu suddenly shuddered, and a chill ran down her back. She had a feeling this man was hiding something.
Can it be calculated? What if it can’t be calculated?
But she didn't dare ask, always feeling that the answer she would get in the end would definitely not be a good one.
Gu Mingjing stood up and looked down at Jian Shu. There was a hint of a smile in his deep eyes, and there was an indescribable sense of danger.
Leaning against the cooking counter, he glanced lazily at Jianshu, like a napping beast, waiting for its prey to fall into his trap.
"What do you think? Which one do you think is more cost-effective?"
At this moment, he exuded a strong sense of oppression, as if he would be severely punished if he answered incorrectly.
Jian Shu immediately backed off, saying with a flattering smile, "Do I even need to choose? Of course I'll stay. My man is so outstanding and so good, only a fool would think of running away."
Smiling on the face, crying in the heart.
Woo woo woo—I will never tease this man again.
This action is simply teasing the tiger's whiskers!
The words "my man" instantly pleased Gu Mingjing. He became more relaxed and his facial expression softened.
The book is his and can only be his.
"Then you must remember what you said today." Gu Mingjing said meaningfully.
"Yeah, I remember it!" Jianshu, who chose to follow his heart, nodded repeatedly. Tears streamed down his face.
Damn it, why did she say such a mean thing before? Now she has offended someone and she is going to be in trouble tonight!
I don’t know if I can see the sun tomorrow.
"By the way, when are we going to hire someone to warm the house?" Afraid that he would continue to pester her, Jianshu quickly changed the subject.
Gu Mingjing glanced at her, smiled, and cooperated to change the subject. "It's all up to you. It'll be whatever day you say."
Except for leaving him, he listened to her on everything else.
Jian Shu thought for a moment and said, "How about the day after tomorrow? The house is almost packed. I'll take the car to the city tomorrow to buy some things. Then I can invite everyone over for dinner the day after tomorrow."
It is better to warm up the house as soon as possible rather than later. It is not a good idea to keep putting it off. It is better to do it early and get the job done. You can't keep people waiting.
As for going to the city, this was Jianshu's previous plan.
There's nothing else at home now except what I bought today. The family compound is so small, and anything that happens spreads quickly. I have to be careful about what I buy for food and daily necessities. If I buy vegetables and meat every day, I'll probably attract everyone's attention immediately.
But she didn't want to be like most people, eating sweet potatoes and corn every day and only having meat every few days.
It would be fine if she didn't have the conditions, but if she did, she wouldn't want to compromise herself. Besides, Gu Mingjing has a lot of training every day, and if he doesn't eat something good to replenish his body, he will easily overdraw his body, which is not good for the long run.
There are a lot of things in her space, but these things must have a reasonable way to appear and cannot appear out of thin air.
Going to the city is a good cover.
"Going to the city?" Gu Mingjing frowned slightly. "Why don't you wait a few days? I'll go with you then."
Jian Shu quickly shook his head, "No, I'm not a child anymore. I don't need you to accompany me wherever I go. Besides, don't we have a private car? I'll take it there and then take it back after I'm done shopping. It's very convenient, don't worry!"
What a joke. If she really lets him go, how can she sneak into Chencang?
"I..." Gu Mingjing hesitated.
"Can you still follow me all the time? Does that mean I won't be able to go anywhere when you don't have time in the future?" Jian Shu asked directly.
Gu Mingjing suddenly panicked, "That's not what I meant. I'll do whatever you say. I'm just a little worried about you going out alone. After all, this isn't Beijing, and you've never been here before. I wanted to take you there to familiarize yourself with the place first. I never meant to stop you from going out."
Seeing him at a loss, Jian Shu's heart softened immediately. She put her arms around his neck and rubbed his cheek. "Okay, I misunderstood you. I apologize to you, okay?" She was overly emotional just now and spoke without thinking. It was really harsh for him.
After being together for so long, doesn't she know how he feels about her?
Gu Mingjing put his arms around Jian Shu's waist and buried his face in her neck. "You're right. I should be the one apologizing. I'm sorry, Shushu. I said I'd listen to you, but I still didn't do it. Go ahead and scold me."
Jian Shu broke away from her, stood on tiptoe, cupped his face with both hands, and looked at him with a smile, "Alright, since we're both wrong, let's cancel it out, okay? You don't scold me, and I won't scold you. Let's make peace, okay?"
Gu Mingjing looked at her bright eyes, which seemed to be filled with the warmth of the summer sun. He nodded unconsciously.
The next second, those eyes became brighter. After a cheer, she stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of Gu Mingjing's lips, like a dragonfly touching the water, and they separated in an instant.
Gu Mingjing touched the corner of his mouth in a daze. After a few seconds, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly and he smiled with satisfaction.
