Chen Xing returned to Gu Mansion happily, feeling very lucky today.
Although the stall was smashed, the man was caught immediately, and the government also promised to send him the compensation. Except for the trouble of repairing things later, there is basically nothing to worry about.
Chen Xing felt so happy in her heart, she was humming when she entered the door.
went in.
Chen Xing pushed open the door of Gu Mansion, and at a glance, he saw Gu Lang who was watering flowers with a small bucket in the yard.
The yard that was overgrown with grass has long been cleaned up, leaving only a bare field.
Chen Xing was worried that Gu Lang would be bored at home, so he bought a lot of rare flowers and seeds, and let Gu Lang plant one in his spare time. Lang can exercise the body through this exercise.
It’s just that Chen Xing didn’t expect that all those seeds survived in Gu Lang’s hands. Ever since they sprout, they’ve been growing gratifyingly. I believe it won’t be long before they can see The yard is full of flowers.
Gu Lang raised his head and looked in his direction when he heard the movement at the door, and after seeing the happy look on Chen Xing's face, he showed a gentle smile and said warmly: "You today What happened, why are you so happy?"
Chen Xing covered his face and was a little shocked, and asked with a bit of confusion in his tone: "I am very happy?"
Gu Lang pointed to his face and said softly, "The look on your face can't deceive anyone at all."
When Gu Lang pointed out his mood so lightly, Chen Xing became more and more embarrassed. He raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Lang, shook his head, and said a little perfunctoryly. : "It's just a little thing."
After speaking, as if worried that Gu Lang would continue to ask questions, he hurriedly said: "By the way, we came back late today, you should be hungry, right? I will go to the kitchen to cook now, Just wait for me, I'll have dinner soon."
Gu Lang looked at the back of Chen Xing running away quickly, pursed his lips, moved his eyes to Qiu Jiu, who had been acting as a transparent person beside him, and asked lightly: "Tell me, today is another day. What happened?"
Qiu Jiu grimaced, thinking about what she promised Chen Xing just now, and then looked at Gu Lang, who was expressionless in front of him, hesitated, but chose to betray Chen Xing, facing Gu Lang about what happened today Everything was said one by one.
"You mean, that woman did this because of jealousy?" Gu Lang's voice was somewhat ironic.
Qiu Jiu also understands why his son is so contemptuous, after all, because of such ridiculous reasons, that woman caused Chen Xing's stall to be destroyed.
Qiu Jiu affirmed: "Yes, that's what the local ruffians said, and when we went to the store, the boss obviously knew Chen Xing and showed a disgusted expression. , I think she did the right thing in nine out of ten cases. By the way, she is the owner of the Qiao family restaurant that my son asked me to investigate last time. "
Gu Lang's face suddenly turned cold, and there was even a little chill in his voice, "Is it her?"
Qiu Jiu nodded.
Gu Lang looked down at the newly sprouted buds on the ground, and asked in a low voice, "What is Chen Xing's attitude?"
Qiu Jiu scratched his head, and seemed to find it difficult to speak, but he still said it one by one, "Chen Xing feels that the person who smashed his stall has been punished, and that The boss is still a first-time offender, thinking that he should be spared and forgive him, and will not pursue further investigations.”
Gu Lang chuckled lightly, with a bit of disgust in his words, but a bit of indulgence in what he said, "He is really too soft-hearted."
Qiu Jiu nodded in agreement, he also felt that Chen Xing was too soft-hearted.
But soon, Gu Lang changed his words and continued: "However, this is also very good."
Qiu Jiu looked at his son and didn't quite understand what he meant, and finally heard Gu Lang continue: "That's it, since he doesn't want to pursue it, let him be happy."
"Yes."
Gu Lang glanced at the direction Chen Xing was leaving, his eyes were deep and deep, and he saw too much intrigue. He still liked Chen Xing's innocent heart, and only hoped that he would not become too fast. Yes.
Gu Lang slowly retracted his gaze, put the water ladle in his hand back into the bucket, glanced at Qiu Jiu who was standing beside him, and said softly: "Let's go, I have something for you to do. ."
"Yes."
Qiu Jiu followed Gu Lang to the study.
Gu Lang took a box from the bookshelf and handed it to Qiu Jiu. If Chen Xing was still here, he would definitely recognize it. The one the shopkeeper gave to Gu Lang.
Qiu Jiu took the box and stood there waiting for Gu Lang's next order.
Gu Lang raised his eyes and looked at him, and said softly: "I have written down what to do to the shopkeeper. Let him tell the person above that I have retired to recuperate, and I will also do so in the future. If you don’t want to get involved too much in those things, don’t send me any more letters.”
"Yes." Qiu Jiu agreed with a serious face.
After explaining this, Gu Lang looked at Qiu Jiu and seemed to think of something, and continued: "By the way, there is also the government, let them not do too much in the future, lest Chen Xing see What comes out."
Qiu Jiu felt that his son was a little too worried, Chen Xing should not have found out, but soon remembered the scene when he came back, and he was a little uncertain, he should say: " Yes, I understand."
Gu Lang explained all these clearly, and his expression relaxed a little, but his face still had no expression.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door, and then Chen Xing's head came in from the door, and when he saw them, his face immediately burst into a smile , said with a smile: "I couldn't find you in the front hall, I wondered if you would be here, and I found it! I've made the meal, and you can talk about it after dinner if you have anything to do."
At the moment when he saw Chen Xing, the indifference on Gu Lang's face was like melting ice and snow. Said: "Hmm."
Gu Lang took the lead out of the study, came to Chen Xing's side and walked with him to the dining room.
Qiu Jiu, who stayed in the study, looked at the changes in his son, and shook his head helplessly, he knew that Chen Xing was special to his son. Thinking like this, he followed with the box in his hand.
On the way to the dining room, Chen Xing was still confused about what Gu Lang and Qiu Jiu did in the study, so he asked bluntly, "What were you doing in the study just now? It’s already time to eat, so why don’t you wait until the meal is over. It’s already delayed your meal time, and if it’s too late, it won’t be good for your health.”
Gu Lang listened to Chen Xing's ramble, not only did not feel irritable, but also felt a little warm, he looked at Chen Xing who was staring at him with concern, and slightly raised the corner of his mouth , "Well, I see, I won't do it next time. I just ordered Qiu Jiu to help me deliver the letter in the afternoon, it won't take much time."
Seeing that Gu Lang explained to him so seriously, Chen Xing himself began to feel embarrassed and said: "I, I don't want to control you, I just worry about your body ."
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's head bowed in embarrassment, stared at the tips of his red ears, gently raised the corners of his lips, and said warmly, "It's okay, I don't mind. "
Chen Xing raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were a little more at a loss.
Gu Lang stared at his beautiful eyes and said softly, "I don't mind you taking care of me."
Chen Xing's face turned red all of a sudden, he felt that Gu Lang's words were too foul, and he couldn't resist.
Looking at Chen Xing, whose face turned red after hearing these words, and quickened his pace towards the dining room, Gu Lang's face became a little darker.
After they were all seated, Chen Xing took a peek at Gu Lang and saw that there was nothing wrong with him. He breathed a sigh of relief, but he also felt a bit of loss that he didn't even notice. , It seems that deep down he is still expecting Gu Lang to say something else.
Gu Lang didn't notice Chen Xing's complicated mood, but after they finished eating, he mentioned another thing to Chen Xing, "Xingxing, do you want to learn to read with me?"
When Gu Lang called him Xingxing at first, Chen Xing still blushed, but when he got used to it, he felt that it was no big deal.
Hearing Gu Lang asking him if he wanted to read, Chen Xing's face showed a bit of incomprehension. I don't know why it was fine, but Chen Xing suddenly wanted to teach him to read.
Chen Xing's emotions have always surfaced directly on his face. Looking at Chen Xing's expression at this time, Gu Lang understood what he was thinking, he looked at Chen Xing gently The corners of his lips twitched, and he explained:
"You have nothing to do in the afternoon, and it is also a good thing to learn to read with me. Didn't you say last time that you wanted to learn to read, but you have never had a chance? Now I have In my spare time, I can teach you to study, what do you think?"
Chen Xing just remembered that this was the reason he told Gu Lang when he saw those words in Gu Lang's study last time. It just didn't occur to him that after so long, he still remembered it so clearly.
For a while, Chen Xing's mood became a little complicated. He raised his eyes to meet Gu Lang's focused eyes staring at him, and he nodded slowly, "Well, I'll learn from you. Recognition."
The curvature of Gu Lang's lips became bigger and bigger. Looking at him, he said with satisfaction: "Well, you can rest for a while at noon today, we will start later."
Chen Xing looked at him and nodded seriously.
The Zhao family at the same time.
The mistress of the house, Mrs. Zhao, came to the room of her daughter Zhao Jing with the help of the maid.
The moment she saw her mother, Zhao Jing, who was still eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake, panicked and quickly hid the sweet-scented osmanthus cake behind her.
Mother Zhao glanced at her coldly, and said coldly: "Don't hide, I saw it all."
As soon as Mother Zhao spoke, Zhao Jing immediately stopped and stood there dumbfounded, looking at Mother Zhao carefully and observing her expression.
Mother Zhao walked slowly in front of her, poked her head with her fingernails painted with beautiful petals, and said with hatred: "You are already a big girl, why? So don't listen to me. Didn't Wei Niang tell you that we will discuss marriage after a while, you have to pay attention to maintaining your figure, if no one looks at you, what will you do?"
Hearing her mother belittling herself, Zhao Jing was a little unconvinced, but she didn't dare to show it. She could only blushed and stared at Zhao's mother, daring to speak.
Mother Zhao looked at her, and poked her head again, making her take a step back, and said bitterly: "Your mother, I am for your own good, please don't Not convinced."
Zhao Jing held the red mark on her head and looked at Mother Zhao pitifully: "Mother, I know. It's just that I really can't control my mouth, so I can't watch it. Wouldn't it be more uncomfortable to let me eat than to kill me?"
Mother Zhao rolled her eyes at her and said sternly: "Even if this is the case, you have to hold back. From tomorrow, I will tell the servants in your house to watch you not eat too much. , if anyone dares to disobey me, I will sell them all."
Hearing Mother Zhao say this, Zhao Jing quickly grabbed her clothes and begged for mercy: "Mother, don't do this."
Mother Zhao ignored her and pulled her hand away, looking like she had no discussion.
Zhao Jing saw that it was no use to act like a spoiled child, she knew that her mother was determined to clean up herself this time, she sighed silently, and decided not to ask her, she would think of a way later All right.
After saying this, Mother Zhao looked her up and down, and then in Zhao Jing's uneasy gaze, she said solemnly: "Where did you get the dessert last time? ?"
Listening to Mother Zhao mentioning the dessert that Chen Xing gave her last time, Zhao Jing's eyes suddenly lit up and looked at her and said, "Mother, do you mean jelly?"
Mother Zhao didn't know what it was called, but she nodded her head tacitly after hearing what Zhao Jing said, and said indifferently, "The last time you took it out, the magistrate's wife liked it very much. I thought about sending some more to my mother to deepen our friendship. So, where did you buy it?"
Zhao Jing listened to Zhao's mother's words, showing a little embarrassment on her face, and finally said the truth: "I didn't buy that, I helped the little boss last time, the little boss Say my thank you gift."
Originally, Zhao Jing kept thinking about it after she finished eating, but she was too embarrassed to ask for it again, so she endured it.
Mother Zhao was silent for a moment when she heard the words, her face suddenly sank, and she suddenly said, "Is it the little boss who caused you to be slapped by Chen Linger last time?"
Thinking of the slap she received last time, Zhao Jing's face darkened a bit, but she still nodded and spoke for Chen Xing: "It's not his fault, it's my own of."
Seeing her daughter's weak and bullying appearance, Zhao's mother felt angry, but her daughter was raised with the old lady since she was a child in order to help her win favor. It's too late to educate her.
Mother Zhao took a deep breath, calmed the anger in her heart, and thought about her purpose of coming here, and continued: "Since he did it, it's easy to handle."
Zhao Jing knew that her mother had a strong temperament. After hearing her say this, she asked anxiously, "Mother, what do you want to do?"
Mother Zhao looked up at her and said arrogantly: "Of course he sent someone to ask if he would like to sell this dessert to us. If he doesn't want to, and he has other requirements, We will do our best to satisfy him.”
When Zhao Jing listened to Zhao's mother's words, she always felt that something was wrong, but looking at Zhao's mother's sinking face, she still did not dare to say anything, thinking in her heart that if the situation was not right, She must go to her grandmother in time for help, so that the little boss cannot be bullied.
Gu House.
After waking up, Chen Xing went straight to Gu Lang's study.
As soon as he entered the door, Chen Xing saw what Gu Lang was laying in front of the desk. When he got closer, he realized that it was a piece of paper that took up one-third of the desk.
Gu Lang noticed the movement of him coming in, turned his head to look in his direction, smiled at him, and said, "This is what I prepared for you."
Chen Xing tilted his head, with a little confusion in his eyes, he didn't quite understand what the white paper was used for, until Gu Lang took down a book from the shelf next to him, Spread it out beside him, and said to him: "If you recognize someone, write one on it, so that you can master it faster."
Chen Xing felt that this was too wasteful. He followed Gu Lang to the bookstore that day and knew that the price of this paper was not cheap, and that the money was all hard earned by Gu Lang. He felt that he It shouldn't be such a waste of course.
Gu Lang looked at the resistance on Chen Xing's face and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, feeling that although Gu Lang was kind, he couldn't take it for granted because of his kindness, so he directly expressed his concerns, "This paper is too expensive, I I just started learning, it's too wasteful for me to use it."
Gu Lang didn't think that Chen Xing's concerns were actually this, he looked at Chen Xing with gentle eyes, and a bit of apology in his tone, "I just wanted to give you the best, not thoughtful. , mine is not."
Hearing Gu Lang's words, Chen Xing felt uncomfortable. What he has to learn is himself, Gu Lang is the one who contributes, and now it is Gu Lang who apologizes, he is almost ashamed.
Chen Xing watched Gu Lang wave his hands again and again, and quickly said: "No, don't do this, you are all for my good, you don't need to apologize to me. If you do this again, I will Feeling embarrassed.”
Gu Lang looked at his shy eyes and murmured softly: "You don't have to worry about it, these are all I want to do for you."
Chen Xing listened to his words, and looked at him with more and more embarrassment, especially after Gu Lang said this, he gently stroked his head, like Treating a child like a child, he coaxed softly: "You, you only need to be responsible and happy, and you don't need to think too much about the rest."
At that moment, Chen Xing only felt that something hit his heart.
