After the unhappy breakup last night, Nie Qianqian and Gu Xiao didn't say a word during dinner this morning. Tuantuan seemed to have noticed that there was a conflict between the two, and kept talking non-stop. After a while, she asked Gu Xiao , and asked Nie Qianqian later, hoping that the two of them could talk.
Nie Qianqian saw Tuantuan's little thoughts and sighed in her heart that this child had a kind and sensitive heart.
Nie Qianqian took the initiative to talk to Gu Xiao, "Today I will take my mother to the county with you. We will study the location of the food stall and send the group to my uncle's house for my aunt to take care of."
When Tuantuan saw her mother talking to her father, she immediately became happy and immediately answered, "My mother said this is called market research."
Gu Xiao smiled and touched Tuantuan's head, "Okay, do you want me to come with you?"
Nie Qianqian didn't need to answer this, Liu Yan said directly, "No, don't waste your time, just go to the academy to study. Didn't Dean Qiu say that there will be something called the county examination at the end of this year? You have to prepare well.”
Gu Xiao opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything and nodded.
The county exam...he really didn't need to prepare.
After several people finished breakfast, Nie Qianqian prepared a food box for Gu Xiao as usual. Spicy stir-fried chicken, boiled pork slices, and spicy cabbage, all spicy.
Nie Qianqian handed the food box to Gu Xiao and said three words, "Here, lunch."
Gu Xiao originally thought that Nie Qianqian would be angry and not cook for him, but when he saw that there was still a food box, he felt happy and tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth that wanted to curl up.
He opened it and took a look and found that it was all spicy. He looked at Nie Qianqian with some confusion.
Nie Qianqian snorted from her nose, "You don't like sweets, so you'll eat spicy ones."
Revenge, naked revenge.
Gu Xiao chuckled, without any hint of displeasure at being retaliated or pranked.
Nie Qianqian looked at him inexplicably, "Why are you laughing?"
"I like spicy food. I like these made by Qianqian."
So what if it's spicy? Who knows he doesn't think it's sweet?
Nie Qianqian felt a little dry after listening to what he said and looking at his smiling eyes.
She turned her head and turned her back to Gu Xiao, and saw Tuantuan standing on tiptoes and raising her arms to feed the cow, talking non-stop while feeding.
Nie Qianqian thought of something, turned around again, lowered her voice and asked, "Do you know Tuantuan's ability?"
Gu Xiao frowned, not knowing what she was referring to.
Nie Qianqian: "Tuantuan can communicate with animals. I mean, communicate in the true sense."
Gu Xiao was slightly startled, his eyes were not as shocked as Nie Qianqian expected, but as if he was stuck in memories.
After a long while, Gu Xiao slowly said: "Tuantuan's talent came from my mother. My mother's mother's clan is reclusive and has little contact with the outside world. Almost no one knows about it. Very few people have such a talent. There may not be one person in several generations, but my mother has told me that this is a gift from the clan god."
There was another sentence he didn't say. This kind of gift meant that this person was the destined patriarch.
Nie Qianqian's eyes widened, "Huh?"
This was the first time Nie Qianqian heard Gu Xiao mention his mother. She didn't expect that Gu Xiao's mother had such an identity. So what kind of person was his father? Was he also a member of the hermit clan?
Three years ago, he lived in Qinghe Village and was in such a state of desolation that his parents were gone.
Gu Xiao: "I know you must find this unbelievable, unbelievable, and even unable to accept it for a while."
Nie Qianqian shook her head, "The world is full of wonders. Tuantuan is my child and my blood relative. As his mother, I can accept anything unusual about him."
Nie Qianqian's words made Gu Xiao feel warm in his heart.
His parents are gone and his brothers are at war with each other. His only real relatives in this world are Nie Qianqian and Tuan Tuan.
His voice became gentler, "I have thought about what you said for a long time last night. You are right. As a couple, we do know too little about each other. My past is a bit complicated, and some things are even mysteries to me. It will take time to find out, but I promise that when the time is right, I will tell you all about my past so that you can understand the complete Gu Xiao."
Gu Xiao's eyes stared at Nie Qianqian seriously, his eyes were like bottomless lake water, as if he wanted to suck Nie Qianqian in.
Nie Qianqian's words last night were just to stop Gu Xiao from asking about her recent abnormality. Unexpectedly, Gu Xiao understood it so well.
Gu Xiao: "Similarly, I also hope that one day in the future, you can let me know the real you."
Nie Qianqian's head stopped for a moment, looking at Gu Xiao, feeling that his eyes were particularly deep and charming today.
At this moment, Liu Yan's voice sounded, "I've packed up, let's go."
The two were stunned and quickly looked away from each other.
Nie Qianqian swore that what Gu Xiao said was not a sweet word, so why did it cause her brain to shut down.
Nie Qianqian coughed dryly and said, "Get in the car. Let's send Tuan Tuan to his uncle's house first."
On the way to the county seat, Gu Xiao sat in the front driving the oxcart, while Nie Qianqian and Liu Yan sat in the back.
Nie Qianqian was considered a career-minded person in her previous life. She was not as good at dating as she was in her career. When she came to this world, what she wanted to do most was to lead her family out of poverty and become rich, and to help the world by relying on her own abilities. She just wanted to take advantage of Xianggong as a teammate, but her teammates didn't seem to think so.
Nie Qianqian made a rational analysis and found out that his teammates' resistance to Heli and their desire to take advantage of her were simply influenced by the marriage concept of this era. Heli was a devastating disaster for any woman, and he did not want to Put Nie Qianqian in such a situation.
From this perspective, Gu Xiao is first and foremost a responsible and good man.
Nie Qianqian's eyes fell on Gu Xiao's back, recalling every moment of their time together.
Gu Xiao protected her and received a blow from Nie Erzhuang;
Gu Xiao helped her argue in court and fight for Liu Yan's reconciliation;
Gu Xiao said in front of the dean that she treated me very well.
"Qianqian, why is your face a little red?" Liu Yan's voice pulled Nie Qianqian out of her thoughts.
"Ah? Is there any? Maybe it's too cold and it's freezing."
"Is it cold? It's not cold..."
Gu Xiao heard the sound, took off the apron from his neck and handed it to Nie Qianqian.
Nie Qianqian stretched out her hand to untie it. The collar was still warm, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.
It also seems like a good idea to get to know each other really well.
After getting to know each other, if they are interested in each other, then she will sleep with him; if they are not interested in each other, then she will dump him.
After figuring this out, Nie Qianqian suddenly felt relaxed. She was a straightforward character, and she no longer struggled with her decision.
When the three of them arrived at Tiande Academy, Gu Xiao got off the cart and left the cart for Nie Qianqian and Liu Yan.
Gu Xiao just got out of the car and wanted to enter the academy, but Nie Qianqian gently pulled Gu Xiao's sleeve.
Gu Xiao turned around and Nie Qianqian put a pear in his hand.
Gu Xiao looked at Nie Qianqian in confusion, "Huh?"
Nie Qianqian said in a brisk voice, "The first step in getting to know each other. My favorite fruit is pears."
Gu Xiao was startled for a moment, then a smile spread between his brows and eyes, and gradually the smile spread to the corners of his mouth and widened.
Gu Xiao smiled. Such a poker face that didn't like to smile looked really nice when he smiled. His smile was like the warm sunshine in winter.
After Nie Qianqian drove away, Gu Xiao took the pear and took a bite.
He actually lied, he likes sweetness.
Pears are quite sweet.
