A person who has been studying and enjoying happiness at home now comes to her to work hard. The purpose is to let him know, which is easier, reading or looking at people's faces?

"I never thought you were so diligent before."

Su Xiaomu watched Gu Jingcheng busy and stopped him from fetching water for her: "We have enough water for the past few days, there is no need to save so much. By the way, what do you want to eat at night?"

He has come, and as the host, she should treat him well.

Gu Jingcheng felt strange, becoming more and more different from usual.

Gu Jingcheng put down the wooden bucket filled with water and took the chosen vegetables from her hand to wash.

He also followed Su Xiaomu into the kitchen and prepared to strike.

He is usually at home and rarely enters the kitchen.

When I go in occasionally, I just use a ladle to scoop out water and drink it.

Su Xiaomu had seen many times how well-dressed and handsome he looked, and this was the first time he saw him being so familiar with the kitchen and cutting vegetables with style.

"I heard a saying before."

She wiped the water stains off her dress and said with piercing eyes, "The gentleman is far away from the kitchen."

"The superficial meaning of this sentence is to place the kitchen far away from you.

But in fact, it wants to tell us that we should not kill anything with flesh and blood. What we recommend is that the unbearable heart should make the gentleman not commit the crime of killing.

It’s not, as you understand, that it becomes a reason for men not to enter the kitchen.”

Although his eyes were light, there was always a smile on his lips when he talked to her: "This sentence should not be used by men to not help women with cooking."

"You don't seem to be a pedantic person."

Su Xiaomu was stunned for a while after hearing what he said. She couldn't help but shake her head when she saw the serious look on his face at this moment.

It was also at this time that she suddenly realized that she seemed to have a lot of prejudice against Gu Jingcheng.

Under the faint sunshine, she stared at his face intently.

Although Gu Jingcheng looks very good, he is a little less delicate and clean than his peers.

But when he smiled now, two shallow dimples appeared at the corners of his mouth, which made him look more childish.

"Not every scholar is as pedantic as you said, and not everyone can enjoy the shelter of their parents and family with peace of mind.

Of course, the premise for me to say this is because I know in my heart that our family is different from ordinary families, and my family has sacrificed a lot for me to study."

When he said this, his face became a little darker, and he thought for a while before turning his head to look at Su Xiaomu, with a hint of inferiority in his eyes.

"I don't really want to make a living for the people by studying, but I just want my family to live a good life. For someone like me who has an impure heart for the imperial examination, will you think that I am inferior?"

"Why do I feel this way?"

Su Xiaomu asked him back. She looked at the hurt and embarrassment in his eyes and shook her head without hesitation, "I don't think so, and I'm not qualified to think so."

"There will be many officials in the court. Is it true that every official is bent on establishing a heart for heaven and earth, establishing a destiny for the people, inheriting the unique knowledge for the saints, and creating peace for all generations?"

"Most of them only think about maintaining the honor of the family and safeguarding their own rights and status.

Of course, I don't deny that there are truly good officials in this world.

So I don't think you will become a bad person when you become famous in the future. You just want to help others after meeting your own needs.

I have always felt that you will be a good official when you become a parent official in the future."

Su Xiaomu hated many things about Gu Jingcheng, but there was one thing she never denied.

Gu Jingcheng is a good person and will definitely be a promising person.

Whatever he desires in this life, no matter power, status, or family glory, will all be realized through his efforts.

"I myself... don't dare to say such decisive words."

He watched as the corners of her lips raised a beautiful curve, and at this moment, his dark eyes contained a soft light.

The bright sunshine touched his back, and all the warmth bloomed with his smile and approach. It was dazzling and beautiful in her eyes, causing her heart to move violently at this moment.

"It's getting late... it's time for us to cook!"

She felt that her heart was being burned by the heat, and she unconsciously tilted her head to look for something to do.

"Hahaha!"

He laughed loudly behind her, his delicate eyebrows spreading at this moment.

The two of them were cooking dinner together in the kitchen.

Although Su Xiaomu kept yelling in his heart not to cook his favorite dishes, he still couldn't help but arrange a large table of dishes according to his taste.

Crispy, tender, juicy, fat but not greasy meat.

The meat is tender, the vegetables are fresh, the soup is red and shiny, and the boiled pork slices are topped with a lot of chili peppers.

Coupled with the Dongpo pork trotters she specially bought yesterday, the texture is soft and the meat is mellow, making people drool after smelling it.

Of course, she also didn’t forget to make some simple and refreshing vegetables, and finally stir-fried a plate of Chinese cabbage very thoughtfully.

"Help me move the dishes to the table outside. Let's have a good meal today while taking advantage of the sunset outside."

She took out a few clean bowls from the cabinet and put a lot of dishes into them.

She lowered her head to pick up the vegetables while talking to Gu Jingcheng.

"I'm going to deliver some food to Uncle Zhang and his family. I haven't thanked him properly for saving my life last time."

"When I'm free in a few days, I still want to invite their family out for a meal. The life-saving grace can't just be passed away so easily."

Uncle Zhang's children liked her craftsmanship, and they were still growing, so Su Xiaomu arranged an elbow for them.

"I'll go."

Gu Jingcheng took the bowl and chopsticks from her hand and took over the task softly: "I want to drink, do you have any wine here?"

“Can I brew my own fruit wine?”

Su Xiaomu moved all the dishes to the table outside when Gu Jingcheng went to deliver the food.

She moved two chairs and placed them outside, then looked up at the sunset in the sky.

Thousands of rays of light and colorful clouds are spread out on the horizon like a joke.

At this moment, the clouds seemed to have been embellished with a layer of gold by fire. Each cloud was carefully painted by God. Red and orange were intertwined, and the gradual dyeing layers spread out, making her feel like the sunset after looking at it.

Infinitely good.

"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's almost dusk."

She whispered this poem that everyone knew by heart.

It was finally time for her and Gu Jingcheng to separate.

After finishing the meal, you can accompany him until the time when the results are released, and then you can get the He Li book from his hand.

If nothing unexpected happens from now on, there should be no chance for the two of them to meet.

With some complicated feelings, when she was pouring wine for him after he came back, she couldn't help but pour herself a glass too.
