Chapter 78 Life is like a play(1/4)

Li Xuewu trembled for the teacher just because he saw the strength in his wife's character.

Just like a monkey tied to the master's hand, no matter how happy you dance, you still can't escape the rope.

He is always afraid, even if he tastes an apple, he is afraid of being embarrassed.

Li Xuewu twitched his lips and looked back at the neighborhood where his teacher's home was. He was secretly glad that although Gu Ning was equally stubborn and cool, he knew better about choices.

Compared to Han Shu's control, Gu Ning has more confidence, just like Shu Ting's song "To the Oak Tree".

If I love you——

It’s definitely not like the climbing flower in the sky, using your high branches to show off;



I must be a kapok tree near you, standing with you as the image of a tree.



You have your copper branches and iron trunks... I have my red flowers...

(Look up this poem yourself, I can’t put all the words here)

Li Xuewu also knew that Gu Ning was pure and noble, so he would never embarrass her, let alone put himself in an embarrassing position like Dong Wenxu.

The relationship with Gu Ning is more like two lonely hearts hugging each other for warmth.

When the car arrived at his godmother's house, Li Xuewu was still thinking that maybe Gu Ning was smarter than him, at least sometimes, he couldn't understand Gu Ning.

"Didn't I tell you not to bring anything with you?"

Godmother Wang Shuhua had been waiting for her godson to come to the door for a long time. When she saw the courtyard door ringing, she rushed out of the kitchen and was about to say hello with a smile. When she saw Li Xuewu holding two more pieces of meat in his hand, she glared and cursed.

"Look what you said, it's too much for me to go home and get something."

Li Xuewu said to his godmother with a smile, and then greeted his godfather Zheng Shusen who came out of the kitchen: "You haven't read a book."

"Hey, aren't you here?"

Zheng Shusen also looked at Li Xuewu with a smile, a friendly look on his face, and greeted Li Xuewu: "Your mother said, you can read the book later, but you can't be late for dinner."

After speaking, he asked Li Xuewu: "Why didn't you bring your wife and children over?"

"Don't mention it"

Li Xuewu walked into the kitchen, hung the beef and mutton on the shelf, turned back to look at his godfather and godmother, and said: "Li Shu woke up at four o'clock. She was so noisy that I had to go out to play and wouldn't stay in the house."

I washed my hands in the basin, took the towel handed over by my godmother and dried them, offered cigarettes to my godfather, and both of them smoked them before continuing to explain.

"There has been a lot of trouble all morning, so I told her to put her back to sleep, but when she woke up, no one in the family was there."

Li Xuewu took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "After asking the sales department, my mother took the old lady, Li Shu in her arms, and her three daughters-in-law and Li Xue to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy fabrics.

He said he wanted to make Bragi."

"Hehehe~ It's true, your mother, how long has it been?"

Wang Shuhua smiled and said: "Bragi was what we wore when we were young. Are today's little wives still willing to wear it?"

"Then I don't know"

Li Xuewu reached out to help in the kitchen, but was pushed out by his godmother.

Zheng Shusen looked at his godson with smiles in his eyes. When he saw him being pushed out, he waved his hand and said, "We are all doing a disservice to your mother by making her busy."

"As you said, if I ask you to help, you will be lazy."

Wang Shuhua heard her lover's words, smiled and said something, turned around and went to work in the kitchen.

Zheng Shusen didn't care what he was told, and took Li Xuewu to sit in the shade of the yard, smoking and talking.

"I heard that your father-in-law is in Yangcheng? Your family is about to move?"

“We have decided to stay in Yangcheng for the time being, but we haven’t moved yet.”

Li Xuewu put the cigarette butt on the edge of the stone table, took the teapot from his godfather and took the initiative to make tea.

While busy with his hands, he explained: "It's my mother-in-law and her sister-in-law. One is running to Yangcheng and the other to Chang'an. My brother-in-law is still studying in Changshan."

"That's what I said, it was your godmother who met your mother-in-law at your home."

Zheng Shusen said something, then took a puff of cigarette, nodded, and said: "It doesn't matter if you are in Yangcheng, let's calm down."

"He is tired now, otherwise my mother-in-law would not be able to take care of him."

Li Xuewu didn't mention any other reasons. He only said that his father-in-law was in poor health and it wasn't that he couldn't trust his godfather, but it was unnecessary.

It makes everyone think that the mother-in-law is there to take care of her husband, and it also makes everyone think that her husband's health is not good.

Showing weakness to an enemy is not a shabby thing. Li Xuewu also told his father-in-law this truth in his letter.

Soldiers have no constant shape, water has no constant momentum, people have no normal state, and things have no routine.

In fact, not only Li Xuewu, but also Gu Haitao's ability could understand that a gentleman should rely on his strength to act.

Zheng Shusen understood the meaning of Li Xuewu's words. He was silent for a long time, took a sip of tea, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "What about you, how are you doing lately?"

"Haha, I can barely cope with it."

Li Xuewu glanced at Zheng Shusen, smiled helplessly and asked, "Have you heard all about it?"

"Why are you asking me~hehe~"

Zheng Shusen looked at his godson with a smile and said: "You are still young and cannot learn from me. You must be aggressive and courageous. It is the time to ride the wind and waves."

"Forget it, I don't want to be a pawn crossing the river."

Li Xuewu smiled, picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said: "There is nothing wrong with seeking stability at this time. Anyway, I don't have any big ambitions."

"You are still pretending to be modest with me"

Zheng Shusen smiled and nodded to Li Xuewu, but the look in his eyes became more and more satisfied.

"Xue Wu is very humble to begin with, why are you pretending to be so?"

Wang Shuhua came out, yelled at Zheng Shusen, and then said to Li Xuewu: "Don't listen to your father, he is just teasing you, let's be careful and take our time, you are still young."

Seeing Li Xuewu's future, Wang Shuhua, the godmother, is already very satisfied.

It's not that she is envious or jealous, but out of concern for Li Xuewu, she hopes that Li Xuewu will be promoted to a high level.

But it has to be realistic. How old is Li Xuewu? You can work hard, but don't expect too much progress. He is already high enough now.

What Wang Shuhua did not say was that it was cold at high places.

Of course Li Xuewu understood what his godmother meant and said with a smile: "My dad said something sarcastic because he was afraid that I would be proud and hit me."

"My godson is smart, he doesn't need to be beaten."

Wang Shuhua wiped her hands and said to Zheng Shusen: "Come into the house with Xue Wu. Here are the dishes. Let's put the table on the table to eat."

General Li Xuewu put out the cigarette butt in his hand, stood up and was about to help serve the food.

Wang Shuhua tried to stop her again, but she didn't stop him. Li Xuewu had already entered the kitchen.

Zheng Shusen was scolded by his lover and did not dare to delay here. He quickly got up and put the table in the room.

Li Xuewu's hands were big and strong. He picked up the bowls and chopsticks and walked out with a plate of peanuts.

"Come in quickly, you don't have to do anything"

"Hi, my legs are diligent"

Li Xuewu responded with a smile and let his godfather open the door and enter the house.

They are the only two people in the family, and their meals are simple, and sometimes there is no table.

That is to say, Li Xuewu is here, otherwise we would have dealt with him on the coffee table.

The table was set up, and Zheng Shusen was also happy that the lunch was a rare bustle.

When Li Xuewu came back with another dish, Zheng Shusen had already rummaged through the cabinet and found a bottle of good wine.

"Look, I hid it three years ago."

Zheng Shusen took the wine in his hand to show off to his godson, and then murmured with squinting eyes: "Cover me, we drank it at noon today!"

"no problem"

Li Xuewu also squinted his eyes and said: "But you have to attack well, otherwise I won't be able to cover."

"rest assured"

Zheng Shusen gave his godson a confident look and said: "I still have a certain family status."

When Li Xuewu heard this, he also curled up his lips. He must have a good family status, but he didn't seem to have much in front of his godmother.

Perhaps seeing the suspicion in his godson's eyes, Zheng Shusen waved his hand and said, "No problem, just take a look."

After he finished speaking, he signaled Li Xuewu to go and serve the dishes quickly, so as not to let his lover see any flaws.

Because Li Xuewu was here, Wang Shuhua prepared four dishes, which were much richer than usual.

This is also a good time, the vegetables have also come out, and there are many types of vegetables in the vegetable market.
