Chapter 23： : Actually bribed her with rouge and gouache

Somehow, in her eyes, Gu Xueting felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't show the slightest, and she was still calm.

"Perform a complete performance. In order to thank the villagers for taking care of you in the past three years, I, as a 'husband', naturally cannot just verbally thank you, so I asked the village chief to help. I will pay and he will contribute, and we will do it at their house. A feast of running water, treat the villagers to a good meal.”

“So, that’s what you went out for yesterday?”

“That’s right.”

“Thank you very much for taking care of us, husband~”

Shen Yizhi deliberately pinched his throat and shouted "husband" in a melodious and melodious way.

Gu Xueting's heartbeat was out of balance for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal. "I rely on you to take care of me these days, as you should."

The "couple" arrived at the village chief's house and did not communicate with each other all the way.

The village chief's family is in better condition. They have built a large blue brick house with tiles. The spacious yard can hold four banquet tables, and there is also a row of tables and chairs outside the yard.

There was only one table in the main room, and the people sitting there were all the elders of the village.

After the two arrived, Gu Xueting was immediately invited into the main room and sat at the head seat.

Shen Yizhi sat down in the yard, next to Aunt Zhao and Aunt Li.

Gu Xueting gave the village chief enough gold leaves, so this meal was a sumptuous one. It was all big dishes, and there was plenty of chicken, duck, and fish.

The villagers all ate happily.

In the room, Gu Xueting picked up the wine glass, reiterated his previous words of thanks, and drank the wine in one gulp.

The village chief laughed: "Mr. Gu is too polite. If it had been anyone else, we wouldn't have left him alone. Don't say any more words of thanks. Mrs. Gu has also helped us a lot in the past three years."

Others nodded in agreement.

“Come, come, we all eat vegetables. It’s all thanks to Mr. Gu. Otherwise, how would we have such good food? We wouldn’t even be able to eat such good food during the New Year.”

The village chief greeted everyone around.

Gu Xueting picked up a piece of fish meat with chopsticks, but as soon as he took it into his mouth, he felt a huge difference. This was simply incomparable to what Shen Yizhi did.

Once you are used to eating the food she cooks, eating the rest is just like rice chaff and cannot be eaten anymore.

However, others ate with gusto and even devoured it.

After the meal, most of the dishes on the table were empty.

The village chief couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he looked at Gu Xueting, who was sitting nearby and didn't use his chopsticks much.

Gu Xueting smiled at him, picked up the wine glass and touched it with him alone, "Uncle Li, actually I still have something to ask for."

“You say it, you say it, I will never refuse if I can do it.”

“Don’t worry, you can definitely do this.”

After a banquet, the villagers are satisfied.

Gu Xueting was also relatively satisfied. He held this banquet not only to thank the villagers, but also to support Shen Yizhi.

The village chief also promised him that in his absence, he would try his best to look after Shen Yizhi, mother and son, and prevent them from being bullied.

In this way, after he leaves, the situation of Shen Yizhi and Qing Bao will not become embarrassing.

As soon as he has a chance, he will come to visit Qing Bao.

On the way back, Shen Yizhi walked in front with Qing Bao in his arms, while Gu Xueting trailed two steps behind.

Qing Bao lay on Shen Yizhi's shoulder, reaching for him with his little hand. Gu Xueting handed his hand over to him to grab.

Shen Yizhi noticed something and turned around suddenly, but Gu Xueting had already retracted his hand in time.

When she turned her head, Qing Bao grinned at Gu Xueting, as if she thought he was playing a game with him.

Gu Xueting saw his smile, raised the corners of his lips, and reached out to pinch his face.

But this time, Shen Yizhi finally caught him.

“You’re actually seducing my son behind my back? What do you want to do?”

Gu Xueting leaned closer to her, "Do you really disagree with my previous proposal?"

Shen Yizhi was startled by his sudden approach, and when he came to his senses, he flatly refused: "No."

“Okay.” Gu Xueting looked disappointed.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, he suddenly reached out and snatched Qing Bao away from her arms, and disappeared without a trace in a flash.

Qing Bao’s cheerful laughter gradually faded away.

“Hey! Where are you taking Qing Bao! Come back here—”

Shen Yizhi was so angry that he became a puffer fish, but after the anger passed, he couldn't help but laugh again.

How could Gu Xueting do such a childish thing!

However, what should she do if she thinks he is cute like this? It’s really hopeless!

Gu Xueting took Qing Bao out all afternoon and didn't come back until dinner time.

Shen Yizhi sat in front of the table with his arms folded and glanced over expressionlessly, "Do you still know how to come back?"

Gu Xueting handed her the newly dressed treasure, which looked like a lucky doll.

Qing Bao held a pearl flower in his hand and presented it to her like a treasure.

Looking at the big and small, Shen Yizhi couldn't hold back. He chuckled, hugged Qing Bao, and bit him on the face, "You brat! When you have a father, you forget about your mother, right?"

Gu Xueting's eyes moved. Did she agree to let him be Qing Bao's father?

“Since you are so cute, I will forgive you, but you can’t do it again next time, or I will spank your little ass!”

Shen Yizhi made a show of patting Qing Bao's butt.

The result not only failed to shock him, but also made him laugh again.

Looking at him smiling, she couldn't help but laugh too.

Gu Xueting looked at the mother and son who were laughing together, with an unconscious smile on his face.

“Come and put the pearl flowers on my mother’s face.”

Shen Yizhi helped Qing Bao stand on his lap.

Qing Bao tried for a long time before inserting the pearl flower. Her hair, which was originally well combed, was messed up by him. Several hairs were broken by him.

However, wearing the beaded flowers that her son put on her own hands, she still felt sweet in her heart.

“Whose family does this cute, sensible and caring little baby belong to?”

Shen Yizhi rubbed his little nose.

She originally thought she had predicted his answer, but what he said was instead: "Daddy!"

Shen Yizhi: “…”

Feeling like a sharp arrow has been shot in the heart.

“Baby, you don’t love me anymore, 嘤嘤嘤…” Shen Yizhi pretended to cry.

Qing Bao couldn't help but look at Gu Xueting.

Gu Xueting held her forehead, could this woman be any more childish? He actually played this game with Qing Bao.

"I bought you some rouge and gouache. They were recommended by the shopkeeper. She said you women would like them. Do you want to take a look?" Gu Xueting said.

Rouge gouache? She usually drinks spiritual springs and eats spiritual food, and her skin is in perfect condition. Does she still need rouge and gouache?

But since he bought it for her, she should just look at it reluctantly.

Thinking this in her heart, but the smile showing at the corners of her eyes and brows had already betrayed her.

Gu Xueting opened a delicate wooden box and pushed it over.

Shen Yizhi took a look at it and found that it was quite complete. There were facial grease, lipstick, rouge, and eyebrow pencil. She dipped her fingers into some rouge and applied it on the back of her hand. It felt good and delicate.

But how can it compare with the cosmetics she made in her previous life?

Speaking of cosmeceuticals, she suddenly felt blessed. In this life, she had a spiritual spring in her hand, and using the medicinal materials grown in the space, the cosmeceuticals she made must be even more effective!

Moreover, this is a way to make money.

But now that she has two treasures, Gu Xueting and Qing Bao, she doesn't have the time or thought to do that for the time being. She will write it down first and try it out when she has time!
