After dinner, Jianshu took Gu Mingjing to see her work of the day. The two of them gathered around the pile of things and commented on them, thinking everything was good.
"This basket is beautiful. Keep it. When we have a daughter in the future, it will be perfect for her to carry. I will pick some flowers and wrap them around the edge. When our daughter carries it, she will definitely be the most eye-catching one in the crowd!" Gu Mingjing carried the small basket as if he saw his daughter, and the corners of his mouth were almost reaching the sky.
Jian Shu nodded in agreement. "Right? I changed this basket specifically because it's so beautifully woven. It's a pity there aren't any flowers woven into the handles, otherwise it would have been even more beautiful. I had a small flower basket when I was a child. It was so beautiful and I treasured it. But it disappeared later and I don't know where it went."
Seeing the regret on her face, Gu Mingjing patted his chest and said, "It's okay. There's someone in our group who can weave this. I'll go learn from him tomorrow. When I learn it, I'll weave one for you. You can weave whatever you like."
"Really?" Jianshu's eyes lit up. She really liked these pretty little things.
"real!"
"Then I want a small flower basket the size of a palm. When spring comes, I will pick a lot of flowers and put them in the basket. It will definitely look beautiful. I also want a bigger one with extended edges and wider space to hold various fruits and put it on the coffee table. I also want..." Jianshu said excitedly, and when he got excited, he couldn't help dancing.
Gu Mingjing looked at her with a smile, nodding and agreeing to everything she said, completely forgetting that he hadn't even started learning yet. Let alone making a small flower basket, he probably didn't even know the most basic weaving method.
But the two of them simply ignored the most important premise and had a very happy chat.
"Going to the market is really interesting. Let's go together next time!" Jianshu sighed and extended an invitation.
Gu Mingjing readily accepted it, "Sure, just tell me in advance and I'll take a day off." He could still spare a day.
"Okay! But there's no need to go to the small market. We've bought enough things today. Let's go together at the big market at the end of the year. I heard from Sister Xiufang that the big market is more lively, and there are people selling candied haws, popcorn and various snacks! It's just right for me to save up some receipts so that I can exchange them for more things. I've spent almost all our belongings today." After saying the last sentence, Jianshu looked at him teasingly.
Gu Mingjing raised his eyebrows. "Then I have to work hard. I have to let my wife buy as much as she wants. Leave the savings to me, and you just wait to spend the money."
"You said it, so don't deny it when the time comes." Jian Shu crossed his arms, raised his chin, and smiled, looking a little arrogant.
"Definitely not."
"It's a deal!"
Although they said so, both of them knew in their hearts that it was impossible to use up all their belongings with just the things they bought today. It was just that one of them said so deliberately while the other pretended not to know and cooperated.
"Oh, I really want the end of the year to come soon. I want to go to the market and eat candied haws!" Jianshu leaned on the table with his chin supported, wishing that time would fly to the end of the year.
Gu Mingjing looked at her with amusement, "You say that now, but when the New Year is almost here, you're eager for winter to pass so you can take off your thick military coat."
Didn't he know her? He didn't want to eat candied haws, he just wanted to join in the fun. But when that time came, he would probably think it was too cold and not as comfortable as now.
"Definitely not this year!" Jian Shu said stubbornly. But then she couldn't help but feel a little guilty. To be honest, she knew her own character very well.
"Okay, then I'll wait and see!" Gu Mingjing chuckled.
Jian Shu was very dissatisfied with the contempt in his words and snorted twice, "Hmph, then you just wait!"
In order to go to the market and get the candied haws, she can definitely do it!
***
Time flies.
It seemed as if the two were still quarreling in the previous second, and the next second there was a cold wind outside the house, snowflakes were fluttering, and the whole place was covered in silver, which was extremely enchanting.
I almost arrived at Jianshu. Yesterday I was fanning myself with a palm-leaf fan, but today I was curled up in bed wrapped in a quilt. "A-choo!" I sniffed and couldn't help wrapping the quilt tighter.
Not long after, Gu Mingjing came in with a bowl in his hand. He stood by the bed and waved to Jian Shu, "Come here and drink the medicine."
"No!" Jian Shu sniffed and slid under the covers in refusal. She hated bitter medicine and didn't want to drink it.
Gu Mingjing looked at Jianshu, who was like a child, and shook his head helplessly. Other things were fine, but this matter could not be done according to her wishes.
He placed the medicine on the cabinet beside him, and personally held Jianshu and the quilt in his arms. Jianshu struggled in vain, and finally swallowed the bowl of medicine.
"I hate you!" Jian Shu's face turned red, and he refused to let anyone hug him. He said this and shrank back into the quilt angrily.
The hated Gu Mingjing held his forehead with his hand, took out a piece of candy from the jar beside him, and went to coax people in a humble manner.
Force-feeding her medicine is a temporary solution. We can't let her get so angry any longer, otherwise I'm afraid she won't even be allowed to go to bed at night.
"I was wrong. How about a piece of candy to sweeten your mouth?"
"snort!"
"Who insisted on going out to play in the heavy snow? You played so hard that you caught a cold and refused to take medicine. You're not obedient at all."
"Are you still blaming me? You disgusting bastard! Get off me! Don't get on my bed!"
"Your mouth isn't bitter anymore? Do you want some more candy?"
"……eat!"
“…”
The temper of a sick person comes and goes quickly, and he will be fine after being coaxed for a while.
After they had been playing around for a while, the effect of the medicine took effect, and Jianshu fell into a drowsy sleep.
Seeing that the person was silent, Gu Mingjing looked down, smiled and kissed her forehead, hugged her in his arms again, and closed his eyes.
I took care of Jianshu all night yesterday and didn't get a good rest. I slept very deeply this time. When I woke up, I caught Jianshu doing some tricks on his face.
"What are you doing?" a low voice sounded.
Jian Shu was startled and hurriedly retracted her hand, "No, no!" She was seriously lacking in confidence. Afraid that he would ask further questions, she quickly changed the subject, "I'm hungry, I want to eat!"
Gu Mingjing stared at her for a while, and seeing her eyelashes trembling, he found it very funny. He gently tapped her forehead and said, "Okay, I'll go cook." In the end, he let her go because she was sick.
