Chapter Thirty I Won't Like You

When can Ms. Chen sit down and talk to people in such a pleasant manner?

And the children at home, aren’t they all very shy and afraid to talk to others?

Now when they were in front of Su Xiaomu, each one was more lively than the other.

Gu Jingcheng's eyes turned to Su Xiaomu.

She was smiling happily at the moment, and her bright smile showed a hint of playfulness that belonged to her age. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, showing two cute dimples. He could still hear her gentle and carefree words.

Voice.

"Huh? Why is Third Uncle back?"

Gu Jingcheng hasn't come back to his senses yet.

Gu Ruochen noticed him and quietly tugged on Su Xiaomu's sleeve: "Third aunt, third uncle is so dirty." Su Xiaomu felt a little weird when she saw Gu Jingcheng coming in carrying firewood.

But he didn't dare to laugh, so he quickly stepped forward to help him unload the firewood from his shoulders.

Mrs. Chen pulled Gu Ruochen's hand to signal him not to talk nonsense, while she smiled sheepishly at Gu Jingcheng.

"Uncle San is back so early? Xiaomu also said he would send you two tea eggs."

"Third uncle...Third uncle, I was wrong."

Gu Ruochen looked at his third uncle's expressionless expression. Even though he was young, he knew that what he just said was not right. He awkwardly grabbed his fingers and said hello to Gu Jingcheng.

Su Xiaomu sensed that something was wrong in the atmosphere at the moment. She unloaded firewood for Gu Jingcheng and he ignored her and put down his things on his own.

She laughed rather awkwardly: "I've boiled a few eggs. You can eat them as soon as you wash your hands. I'll deliver them to my eldest brother and the others."

"Um."

Gu Jingcheng became loud now. He lowered his head and glanced at Su Xiaomu before going to wash his hands.

Seeing him go, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Chen felt a little sorry for Su Xiaomu now. She clicked her tongue twice: "Although our family relies on the third uncle to live our lives, Xiaomu, you will still have to suffer from his temper."

After walking into the house with a few children, Mrs. Chen found a quiet place to embroider a handkerchief.

"What a bad day? It's not bad at all."

Su Xiaomu didn't think Gu Jingcheng was that difficult to serve.

Anyway, the two of them had already agreed, and she wasn't afraid that Gu Jingcheng would look down on her for no reason.

She took the tea eggs and went to the fields to find Gu Feng and the others. Unexpectedly, Gu Jingcheng started packing his things after washing his hands, planning to go back to the academy in the afternoon.

"Are you going back so early this time? Mom also said that your wife will make you some delicious food tonight to replenish your health."

Mrs. Li heard something moving in Gu Jingcheng's house. She carried her purse and entered his house. While helping him pack his things, she asked cautiously: "Didn't you say you can feel more relaxed recently? Why do you seem to be holding back something in your heart?"

What the same.

But you’re short of money and spent it?”

"Nothing, I just haven't finished reading a book and forgot to bring it back."

Gu Jingcheng packed his luggage. He watched Mr. Li's expression gradually soften as he worked hard for him, and a soft light gradually appeared in his usually cold eyes: "My son knows that he must study hard."

"You have to study hard, but your own body is also very important.

This money was earned by your wife from her previous business, and we have saved it for you. You can buy whatever you want in the city, and eat whatever you want, but don't wrong yourself.

When the time comes, the expenses for taking the exam will be saved for you, so you can just study with peace of mind."

Li took out the purse she had prepared and stuffed it into Gu Jingcheng. The more she looked at it, the more she felt that Gu Jingcheng had become much thinner recently than before, and she felt more and more distressed.

"No need." Gu Jingcheng returned the money to Mr. Li and shook his head slightly, "My son is not short of money and has nothing to buy. Your Majesty really cares about me, so I will use the money to buy you and dad some delicious food.

’s replenishment.”

Mrs. Li put the money back into Jingcheng's pocket again, and she persuaded him earnestly: "Look at how thin you are despite being such a big man. Why don't you feel distressed when you see me?"

The purse made of coarse cloth was placed in the palm of Gu Jingcheng's hand. He felt the importance in his hand, and for some reason, he suddenly recalled in his mind the way Su Xiaomu cared about doing business in the city.

It was just a few pieces of cake and a few coins, but they were all so important to her.

He and Zhou Lin watched her doing business from a distance several times.

No matter what kind of guests she met, whether they were gentle or troublesome, she was always so enthusiastic, as if she would never be tired for a day.

Looking at the money, my eyes gradually became complicated.

Gu Jingcheng finally shook his head and handed it back to Li, his slightly gentle words full of firmness and no doubt.

"You don't have to give them to me, just keep the flowers for yourself."

"Okay, then you have to remember to take good care of your body. As my mother said, a good body is the capital for doing all important things. Studying is important and getting ahead is important, but a good body is more important than them all.

"

Mrs. Li understood her son's temper and knew that it would be useless to persuade him, so she said nothing more.

After Su Xiaomu came back from delivering the eggs, Mrs. Li had already left. As soon as she entered the room, she saw the bundles on the bed and Gu Jingcheng, who was arranging the books on the table with a serious look on his face.

Go back after two days?

Very good!

Just as he was thinking about it, Gu Jingcheng's cold voice came to his ears.

"You don't have to work so hard to make money in the future. I'm a tall, tall man, and I won't live off your money."

"As a woman, you deal with these copper coins all day long, and you are not afraid of getting the smell of copper."

"What are you talking about?"

Su Xiaomu was stunned.

I didn't quite understand what he meant.

Does he mean to look down on women who make money?

Or do you simply look down on her for making money?

It's also interesting. Although he is considered to be the lowest among scholars, farmers, and merchants, he has already had such a high vision before he even became an official?

Her slightly sarcastic look made Gu Jingcheng frown.

He said: "Don't think that just because you make some money and can use it on me will make me like you, it's all in vain."

She is a woman who goes to the city all day long to do business. The mountain road is so difficult. Judging from her usual frugality, she does not look like someone who is willing to spend money to ride in an ox cart.

The road is dangerous, and there are often gangsters causing trouble in the city. She is not always so lucky that she happens to be able to help.

Thinking of the thrilling incident in the alley last time, Gu Jingcheng's eyes darkened slightly: "A woman will eventually..."

"If you look down on my money so much, why did you ask me for thirty cents last time?"

Su Xiaomu looked at Gu Jingcheng and really felt that he had a convulsion today.

He doesn't value her or money, so what does he value?

Yan Ruyu in the book, or the golden house in the book?
