Gu Mingtang was thinking about where to take the children to play in the afternoon, when he saw Lu Liangzhou standing in the distance.
The figure is upright and as handsome as jade.
When he saw her coming out, there was a smile on his face.
Without any nonsense, he pulled Gu Mingtang and walked towards the alley to the west.
When we arrived under a sycamore tree, we saw a tricycle parked under the tree.
Lu Liangzhou pointed to the tricycle, "Come on, the weather is nice today. I'll take you on a walk on the street. No matter where you are, you can see wherever you go. How about it?"
The tricycle is half old, but very clean. Behind it is a shed that is stacked up. The wheels are high and the mats in the carriage are new.
The weather is nice today.
It was a rare cloudless day with no wind.
The temperature is neither too high nor too low.
There are many more pedestrians on the road than usual.
There are also tricycles.
They are all ridden by old men.
Such a handsome young man as a coachman?
Gu Mingtang sat up with a smile.
Oh, there is a bag next to it. When I opened it, I saw various snacks and a military kettle. It was heavy when I picked it up, and it was filled with water.
This is very well prepared.
Lu Liangzhou's smile deepened when he saw Gu Mingtang getting into the car neatly.
Along the way, it was indeed different from what I saw in the past.
Lu Liangzhou gave explanations from time to time, just like a tour guide. He would stop along the way when he saw interesting places. Lu Liangzhou grew up here. When he was a child, he ran around like a wandering child without anyone caring about him.
It actually made him very familiar with the streets and alleys of this city.
After passing a landscape, he took Gu Mingtang to an alley.
There is a tall elm tree deep in the alley, but the courtyard door of the house at the end is tightly closed.
Lu Liangzhou knocked on the door and said in a very soft voice, "I am Lu Liangzhou."
After a while, the door opened from the inside.
An old woman opened the door with a smile.
Seeing Lu Liangzhou smiling kindly, he was stunned for a moment when he saw Gu Mingtang behind him, and then closed the door behind him.
When we entered the courtyard, we smelled the aroma of food.
Lu Liangzhou asked Gu Mingtang to call someone, "Tangtang, this is Aunt Qu, and the one who is cooking is Uncle Qu."
Aunt Qu looked at Gu Mingtang with squinted eyes, unable to hide the smile on her face, "Liangzhou, is this your wife?"
Lu Liangzhou: "..."
Seeing that Gu Mingtang was still smiling, Lu Liangzhou's heart swayed, and unspeakable emotions surged in like a tide.
"Aunt Qu, this is Tangtang, my wife."
The one who said it was confident and the one who was proud.
He held Gu Mingtang's hand and didn't let go.
It wasn't until he entered the house that he let go.
But his eyes were still fixed on Gu Mingtang.
daughter in law! ! !
This was the first time Gu Mingtang admitted that she was his wife in public.
This meaning is also different.
From then on, he dared to take Gu Mingtang to meet his friends, comrades, and even classmates.
Gu Mingtang really didn't know why Lu Liangzhou was laughing, so he laughed too, and said, "How did you find this shop? It smells delicious."
"Uncle Qu is very good at his craftsmanship. It tastes better when you eat it than when you smell it."
"Do you come often?"
"When I was a kid, I happened to play in this area. I didn't see the state-owned restaurant at noon, but I was hungry, so I went there after smelling the smell. The uncle made cabbage soup for me from the pancakes he baked, and I ate it cleanly. I still remember the taste, and I don’t know how to make such ugly cabbage so delicious.”
Gu Mingtang knew his taste and didn't like cabbage very much.
"Then what?"
"Later on, I often came here to eat."
According to Lu Liangzhou's temperament, he shouldn't be free of others' food.
But business was not allowed at that time, and the uncle would definitely not dare to accept Lu Liangzhou’s money.
Lu Liangzhou poured tea for Gu Mingtang, "Uncle Qu personally made the autumn tea. It tastes very good. Take a sip."
Gu Mingtang picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then nodded. He was still a refined man, "Well, it's pretty good."
Then he drank it all in one gulp.
Lu Liangzhou chuckled.
He stretched out his hand to rub her hair and said calmly, "...I only found out later that my father arranged for the uncle's son to join the army within the scope allowed by the policy. Now Brother Qu has reached the battalion level."
Oh, that makes sense.
Gu Mingtang didn't say anything unnecessary. No one could understand the knot in Lu Liangzhou's heart. There was some pain that even time could not heal.
In fact, it’s still pretty good this way.
The personalities of these two people destined them not to be as close as many fathers and sons.
Gu Mingtang talked about this small shop, "Are they running it?"
"I have this idea, but I have to wait until next year."
"Then we just sit here and wait for others to prepare it and eat it ready-made?"
"Sit down. The uncle likes the kitchen. It is his battlefield. If you go there, you will cause trouble. As long as you think it tastes good, just praise it."
"Then don't you do something?"
This room is very elegant, and it seems that it is specially used to receive guests.
"No, Uncle Qu, you don't have to be polite here."
Lu Liangzhou felt as casual as if he were at home.
Outside, Uncle Qu shouted, "Liangzhou, the food is ready, come and serve it to your wife."
Golden steamed buns, served with three vegetables and a soup.
The ingredients are neither exotic nor expensive, just ordinary cabbage, radish, pork belly and tofu.
But it’s so delicious.
Uncle Qu and Auntie also sat over.
There was no drinking, just chatting at the dinner table.
Aunt Qu was not someone who liked to inquire about things, but she looked at Gu Mingtang eating with a smile, and then looked at Lu Liangzhou, wondering how these two children were so well matched.
After eating, Gu Mingtang took out two sweater tickets from his pocket.
Director Fu thrust this into her.
Fortunately, she has the habit of keeping these things with her.
This kind of ticket is only for internal use. With this ticket, you can go to the sweater counter in the First Department Store to pick out sweaters for free.
Then, Aunt Qu found out that Lu Liangzhou’s wife was the director of Nuanyang Knitting Factory.
I was shocked immediately.
"Ah, then I'm not welcome. Our daughter-in-law from Liangzhou is actually the director of the factory. The neighbors have been talking about how beautiful the Nuanyang brand sweaters are these days. I have never seen it. I will check it out with you, Uncle Qu, this afternoon. go."
When Gu Mingtang got on the tricycle again and drove slowly along the tree-lined road, Gu Mingtang thought of something and suddenly became overjoyed.
Lu Liangzhou asked softly, "Why are you laughing?"
"...Auntie keeps calling me Liangzhou's wife."
"What, doesn't it sound good?"
"It just feels fresh."
"You are my wife, so it's normal to call you this." Lu Liangzhou stopped the car, his eyes burning, "Your friends can also call me Factory Director Gu's man. By the way, in Xiangyang Commune, someone actually pointed at me and said, Look, that’s Director Gu’s man, he looks like a pretty boy.”
Gu Mingtang was stunned for a moment, then laughed again.
Lu Liangzhou couldn't help but laugh.
