Chapter 128 Gentle and powerful

He used to feel that it didn't matter where he lived, whether it was at home or in college, the place he lived was just a temporary resting place for people, good or bad. It couldn't be called a habit, and it was hard to talk about liking it.

But things are different now. That small courtyard, the small courtyard where he has lived for a long time, seems to have become extremely cold after living without Su Xiaomu.

Gu Jingcheng didn't even want to go back to live at night. Su Xiaomu fled overnight, but he didn't dare to face it in the next few nights.

For several days in a row, she had been hiding in this farm, and he had been hiding in Wan Fuzi's house for several days.

But people can't always face problems passively, they have to face them no matter what.

Only now did he realize that Su Xiaomu had affected him so much silently.

If one day the two of them really want to separate...

Gu Jingcheng's mood became increasingly gloomy.

"I'm probably going back... I have something to ask you. Come over here and let us have a good talk."

They were standing in this courtyard, looking at each other from a long distance apart. After all, it was not conducive for them to talk about what was on their mind.

Leading him into the room, Su Xiaomu did not shy away from letting him see the room full of wine. She went behind the screen to change into a new coat, opened the window to disperse the smell of alcohol, and then sat opposite him and apologized to him.

: "Yesterday a friend came to see me and had a few drinks with her."

"Ok, I know."

Gu Jingcheng nodded in response. He just saw the Chen family's carriage outside.

At this moment, he was a little less air-conditioned than usual, and more like a human being, making him feel a little more naive.

Gu Jingcheng's appearance made Su Xiaomu unable to say anything that would make him feel uncomfortable.

"When you didn't want me to do business at the beginning, did you think that doing business would make people smell like copper, or did you think that the status of businessmen was low and that students like you would look down on you?"

She doesn't care what others think of her, and Gu Jingcheng certainly belongs to other people's categories.

But since she wanted to talk everything out now, she had to listen to what his true thoughts were deep inside.

Especially after reading his article last night, when Su Xiaomu looked at him now, he really felt an unreal feeling of separation.

A person with vested interests like him will stand in a high position and overlook thousands of people in the future. Can he really see the poverty of the people at the bottom and the hardships of women in the country?

Su Xiaomu really couldn't help but think about many problems, but at the same time she understood that in such a patriarchal society, it would be difficult for Gu Jingcheng to get any substantial benefits by speaking for women, and it might even be possible because of this

I was rejected by other students.

There are not many benefits that Gu Jingcheng can get, but the disadvantages are already in front of him.

"No." Gu Jingcheng looked at her and shook his head, with a huge gentle light in his calm eyes, "I have never felt that doing business should be compared with having the smell of copper. I don't care about men or women, as long as they are

Everyone in my court should have the opportunity to pursue what they want."

"Whether it's money or ideals, as long as you don't regret the decision you make in the end, it's all worth it and it's not enough to cause criticism from others."

"A good one is not worthy of criticism from others!"

Su Xiaomu was really shocked by what he said!

Then I heard Gu Jingcheng continue talking.

"There are many prejudices against women in this world. As a man, although I come from a humble background, I have had many more opportunities to get ahead than ordinary women since I grew up. I can take the imperial examination and become an official, and I can sell my labor to make money.

, no matter what, I am always stronger than ordinary women, and it is always easy to support myself."

He looked at Su Xiaomu's arm, which was a small piece hidden in his clothes. Even if he wanted to break it off, it wouldn't take much effort.

It can be seen that ordinary women not only have no chance to get ahead, but they also have no good way to protect their own personal safety.

"Women are inherently weak, and I only mean in terms of strength. As such, they deserve to be protected."

After Gu Jingcheng finished speaking, although his eyes were as calm as ever and his expression did not fluctuate at all, it was enough to make Su Xiaomu uneasy.

He also talked about past events: "I asked you for money before because I didn't want to have too much to do with you. I was afraid that you would have bad thoughts about me if we interacted too much. We just met by chance. If we have feelings for each other,

I'm afraid it will cause misunderstanding."

"So that's what you think." Su Xiaomu really felt that she should be dumbfounded at this moment.

It turned out that she was the one who had always been prejudiced against others, and thought that Gu Jingcheng was the idiot, but she was the only one who was stupid.

But Su Xiaomu couldn't help but wonder why he was so smart in reading, but always lacking in how to deal with people.

I don't know how to talk to her properly. I have read so many books, but I still always say things that make people feel ambiguous.

Just when she wanted to remind him to be more careful when speaking in the future, Gu Jingcheng's stomach suddenly growled.

This cry, in the extremely calm confined space, can be said to be very explosive.

"Puch!"

Forgive Su Xiaomu for not having the patience, it’s so funny that I can’t hold it in anymore.

"Hahahahaha, my aunt here, cough cough..."

She almost burst into tears with laughter: "My aunt here cooks better than Aunt Zhao. I should have let you try her cooking, but she went to wash up with An Ning just now. So, why not try my Yangchun?"

noodle?"

There are ingredients for cooking in the kitchen. Whenever Su Xiaomu is free in the past two days, he will cook his own meals.

When she is in a bad mood, she always likes to eat delicious food to soothe her injured soul.

"Okay, it's my pleasure."

Probably because the two of them had come to an understanding, Gu Jingcheng's speech became more popular than before.

The making of Yangchun noodles is very simple. Su Xiaomu took Gu Jingcheng to the kitchen and talked to him while making it.

"A handful of thin noodles, half a bowl of broth, a cup of water, five cents of lard, a spoonful of soy sauce brewed by the villagers, and then blanched two crispy cabbage. Most people can't taste this taste.

.”

Su Xiaomu put the prepared Yangchun noodles in front of Gu Jingcheng. If she was shocked by what he said just now, she didn't reply to him for a while.

Now, she was able to talk to Gu Jingcheng calmly.

"Before eating noodles, there is something I want to tell you."

Su Xiaomu handed him the chopsticks, her eyes were soft and her tone was firm: "If I was confused about you before, now I know what you think about me, but I can't respond to you, nor can I promise you to do it.

Your real daughter-in-law, the only thing I want to do at the moment is to have the ability to settle down in the country and have real support."

"We must... rely on... that's all." Gu Jingcheng mixed the noodles in the mixing bowl. He smelled the aroma of Yangchun noodles with his nose, and his brows gradually relaxed, "Can we not talk about reconciliation before the imperial examination?"

"Everything will wait until you finish the exam. Anyway, we are both very busy now. We live together in Fucheng... so we can take care of each other."

Su Xiaomu was still a little worried that too much talk about the two of them would affect his exams.

Gu Jingcheng has paid so much for the imperial examination, and now his future is in front of him. Of course, he cannot ruin it because of these small loves.
