During the meal at the Gu family's old house, they still maintained their style of eating without saying anything.
The only sound that was quiet was the sound of picking up food and setting dishes.
But this also suited Li Muhan's heart. At this moment, she just wanted to eat quietly and didn't want to say anything.
Gu Chengyan, who was sitting next to her, saw that Li Muhan only ate the two or three dishes in front of him and stopped using his chopsticks for the others further away.
Maybe it was because of table manners, or maybe I was still cautious.
Then I thought about what my grandma said just now, that the soup was good, so I reached out and filled a bowl for her and put it on the side of her hand.
Li Muhan saw a bowl of soup suddenly appeared in front of him and looked at Gu Chengyan in surprise.
"Grandma said this soup is delicious, try it!"
"Okay, thank you!"
"You said you don't have to be so polite to me!"
Li Muhan immediately smiled at him and said he understood.
Both of them spoke very quietly, but the other three elders still heard it.
It’s really nice to see them getting along so well, talking and laughing, and their words showing that they care about others!
The three elders all showed a look of relief in their eyes!
Soon, dinner time was over and everyone moved to the living room again.
Mrs. Liu brought a pot of digestion tea and some fruits at the right time, and then left.
Mrs. Gu glanced at Li Muhan's legs and asked:
"Mu Han, does your leg still hurt?"
Li Muhan returned immediately after hearing this.
"It's okay, I've recovered!"
"That's good!"
Thinking about why she was injured like this, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but feel distressed.
"I made you suffer!"
Li Muhan just smiled this time and didn't say anything.
She did suffer a lot because of it, but it's all over now.
Over there, Gu Zongde suddenly remembered something official.
"Yan'er, come to the study with me. I have something to tell you!"
"good!"
Gu Chengyan immediately stood up and followed Gu Zongde upstairs.
"Come on, Mu Han, eat some fruit, they may have to talk for a while!"
Mrs. Gu pushed the fruit plate towards Li Muhan.
"Thank you, grandma, but I can't eat much now. I ate too much for dinner just now!"
I accidentally ate too much.
At this time, Mrs. Gu next to her spoke,
"How about this? How about you accompany me for a walk in the yard to refresh yourself?"
"That's okay, let's go for a walk!"
Mrs. Gu took advantage of the situation and said yes.
Li Muhan also thinks this suggestion is good, and he will take a walk now to avoid accumulating food later.
"OK!"
He nodded in agreement, and then stood up first.
Mrs. Gu over there also stood up, and then said to Mrs. Gu,
"Mom, let's go out first!"
"Go, go. But it's a little cold at night, so you'd better put on a shawl!"
Mrs. Gu took off her shawl and handed it to Mrs. Gu.
Mrs. Gu took it and put it on her shoulders, and then walked out of the living room with Li Muhan.
Li Muhan always kept half a step away from Mrs. Gu, following behind her.
The two of them walked into the yard together.
Because it was already dark when they came back, so now the lights were on in the yard.
Under the illumination of the lights, the entire yard looks completely different from what it looked like the last time I came here. It has a unique flavor.
Li Muhan had to sigh again, the design here is really exquisite and ingenious.
After walking like this for a while, Mrs. Gu suddenly spoke and asked about Li Muhan,
"Mu Han, how do you feel about getting along with Yan'er?"
It was similar to what I asked Gu Chengyan back then.
In fact, she not only just went out for a walk, but also wanted to know from a side perspective whether the two children really got along well.
Li Muhan, who was suddenly asked a question, was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately and returned,
"It's pretty good. I feel very comfortable spending time with him!"
This is the truth. The first feeling when being with Gu Chengyan is comfort.
Mrs. Gu glanced at Li Muhan in surprise. Why was this answer the same as Yan'er's?
Inexplicably, it feels like it's been negotiated.
"real?"
She couldn't help but ask a question.
"Yes, when you are with him, you will naturally relax. He is very nice, and he even helped me write my thesis some time ago!"
Without Gu Chengyan, her paper would never have been written so quickly, nor would it have been completed so beautifully.
"Is there still such a thing?"
Mrs. Gu was very surprised and said, "It seems that they get along really well, so she can rest assured!"
He continued walking forward, and then he couldn't help but sigh,
"It's not easy for Yan'er as a kid. When he goes to junior high school, he has to start learning to take charge of the company.
I am usually busy studying and have almost no time to rest, let alone go out and play.
But there is no way, he is the only child in the family, and his father..."
When Mrs. Gu said this, she immediately stopped with a sad look on her face.
This is a pain that can never be erased from her heart!
Li Muhan didn't expect Mrs. Gu to take the initiative to mention this matter herself, and didn't know what to say for a while.
It was Mrs. Gu herself who broke the quiet and cramped situation first.
"In these years, I have been trapped in my own world, neglected to take care of Yan'er, and failed to fulfill the duties of a mother. I feel that I owe him a lot!
Now that I see Yan'er getting married and you two getting along so well, I'm very happy! "
After hearing these words, Li Muhan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
A mother has to endure the pain of her husband's death and at the same time feels that she owes her children and feels guilty. How uncomfortable and torturous this must be!
Now I finally look forward to my son growing up and getting married.
She could see that Mrs. Gu and the Gu family were very satisfied with herself.
But she was destined to live up to their love and recognition.
After thinking for a while, he said,
"Don't worry, Chengyan will definitely be happy in the future!"
This was her blessing to Gu Chengyan, hoping that he would be able to meet someone with whom they both like each other, and that they could live happily together until old age.
However, Mrs. Gu, who did not know it, thought that this was Li Muhan's promise to her son, and she suddenly felt happy.
"Okay, you will definitely be very happy in the future!"
After listening to this, Li Muhan didn't feel like saying anything else, so he had to leave it to time and take his time in the future!
The two walked for a while and then turned back.
After arriving in the living room, she happened to see Gu Chengyan coming down from upstairs. Mrs. Gu hurriedly asked,
"Have you finished talking to your grandpa?"
"Yes!"
When I saw my mother and Li Muhan coming back from outside together, I guessed that they might have gone for a walk in the yard.
After Gu Chengyan came down, he took a look at the time. It was already past nine o'clock.
Then he spoke to Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu,
"It's getting late, Mu Han and I will go back first!"
Mrs. Gu had been sitting in the living room. When she heard this, she also looked up at the time.
"It's so late, so don't go back. It's not safe to drive late. Otherwise, stay here tonight!"
