Then, as if thinking for a moment, he said, "No problem, what time will we leave? I'll buy the train tickets in advance."
These days, train tickets to the south are hard to buy. They are sold out every day. Everyone wants to go south and go to the sea to dig for gold.
Liu Shuzhen didn't expect it to go so smoothly. She covered the phone and looked at Gu Ning, "Ning Ning, what date do you plan to leave??"
Gu Ning thought for a moment and took the phone, "Zhou Zhiyuan, it's me."
"Well, I know."
The other party's voice seemed somewhat gentle.
"It's like this. My original plan was to go south alone. I'll tell you when I get there."
There was silence for a while, and the tone was a little helpless, "Ning Ning, if Auntie doesn't make this call to me, are you going to kill it first and then explain it later?"
By the time he got to the end, his tone was already a bit dangerous.
Gu Ning sighed, "Zhou Zhiyuan, you don't know that your job is different from others."
The other party is a member of the public and is doing official business.
In this case, it's not like she couldn't tell the priorities.
Zhou Zhiyuan was silent. He had always known that Gu Ning was very sensible and independent, but he knew that when they met him formally, he would still feel a sense of frustration.
"Ning Ning, it's good that I'm from a public family, but I'm also your date."
Can you properly rely on me?
Although the last sentence was not spoken, Gu Ning understood it clearly. She was a little helpless, "Zhou Zhiyuan, I am doing this for your own good."
She felt that she was sensible enough and considerate enough, so why didn't this person appreciate it?
"I don't need it. Ning Ning doesn't need it. I hope that no matter what happens, your first reaction is to come to me."
Whether you come to him for help or to scold him to vent your emotions.
This will make him feel that Zhou Zhiyuan has a status in Gu Ning's heart.
Instead of like now, even if you know that a person is in danger going south, you don't tell him, and you even plan to kill him first and tell him later.
Gu Ning rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Zhou Zhiyuan, let me think about it."
It seems that she has not yet transformed from this identity, or in other words, the characteristics and habits in her bones make her habitually solve problems by herself instead of asking others for help.
Not even Zhou Zhiyuan.
Zhou Zhiyuan also knew that the heat was on. As he continued talking, the little girl was afraid that she would get angry, so he changed the subject, "Give me one day to finish the work at hand. How about going south with you the day after tomorrow?"
Gu Ning was originally a person who was stroked, but after hearing these words, his attention was diverted.
She thought for a while and said, "Okay, it's okay to be late for a day or two."
"You go about your own business first."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Shuzhen looked at Gu Ning anxiously, "Has everything been discussed?"
She is not a person with strong opinions, but this time she is rare and tough. Even if her daughter objects, she will call Zhou Zhiyuan.
It's nothing more than being a parent and caring about the safety of your children.
Gu Ning nodded, "Okay." Then, she changed the topic, "But, Mom, next time this kind of thing should be solved by myself."
Liu Shuzhen was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "As long as you don't let mom worry, don't say you solved it yourself, even if you want to go to heaven, mom won't care about you."
Speaking of which.
Liu Shuzhen paused for a moment, her expression a little unnatural, "Ning Ning, there is something that mom hasn't told you yet."
Gu Ning raised his eyes to look at her. Her eyes were very beautiful, like glass, clean and clear. At the end of her eyes, because her skin was too fair, she was slightly red, which made her look dazzling and alluring.
"That's right, didn't you get the top scorer in the college entrance examination?" Liu Shuzhen felt a little uncomfortable, "Your uncle and the others came to see you once, but you were in Anjia, so you didn't see them."
uncle?
Where did she get her uncle from?
Gu Ning was stunned for a while before she realized who the uncle Liu Shuzhen was talking about was Liu Shuzhen's natal family.
The Liu family hadn't appeared in her memory for a long time, so she forgot about it.
Gu Ning frowned, a little unhappy, "They came to bully you again?"
"Aren't the lessons learned before enough?"
When they first moved to this alley, uncle Liu Wanda and aunt Niu Erni were like sneaky cats, leading their son Liu Baoliang to visit her, just to get her place in the textile factory high school.
If she remembered correctly, that time, she took care of all the relatives of her uncle's family.
Logically speaking, they shouldn't dare to come to the door.
Liu Shuzhen shook her head, "That's not true. You also know that people in my mother's family looked down on me in the past. This time, my eldest brother and sister-in-law brought Liu Baoliang here to ask you -"
I haven't finished speaking yet.
There was a knock on the door outside.
Gu Ning and Liu Shuzhen looked at each other, and she ran over to open the door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw the flattering face of the so-called aunt from before, Niu Erni. To be honest.
Gu Ning felt a little uncomfortable.
This eldest aunt dislikes all the brothers and sisters the most, and she has always looked down upon her own mother.
But grandma was not bad, but she was controlled by Niu Erni, the daughter-in-law. As time went by, the relationship gradually faded away.
Niu Erni didn't seem to notice the coldness on Gu Ning's face. She had a huge pancake face and her smiling eyes were squeezed together. "Ning Ning, I haven't seen you for a while. Chuluo is so beautiful!"
Her eyes flashed with surprise.
Gu Ning called out calmly, "Auntie."
She actually didn't understand how relatives from two families who were at odds with each other could come to her house without any grudges.
This cold attitude made Niu Erni unable to get off the stage. She immediately put the basket she was carrying forward and said, "Look at you kid, you are still angry. When I brought Baoliang to the door, wasn't it because I was deceived by a villain?
?”
"I'm saying that it's been so long, and the great hatred should be gone." Niu Erni glanced sideways at Liu Shuzhen, "Shuzhen, I'm not telling you, children can't be taught like this, it's not good for their elders.
Education.”
Once you say this.
Liu Shuzhen, who has always been good-tempered, couldn't help but stabbed, "Sister-in-law, I have never taught Ning Ning. Do you think if I teach Ning Ning, she can get the top score in the college entrance examination?"
Originally, she planned to put in a good word with Ning Ning because they were her mother's family.
I slowly picked up this family of relatives, after all, it was the place where I grew up and my relatives.
After saying this, Niu Erni choked on the spot and fell silent. She took a deep breath, thought about her purpose, and immediately endured it.
"Shuzhen, you know me. I never speak well. Don't argue with my sister-in-law." After saying that, she slapped herself in the mouth.
this--
The small courtyard suddenly became quiet.
This is not like the arrogant and domineering aunt from before.
Gu Ning frowned, with a bit of inquiry in his eyes, "Tell me, what exactly are you here for?"
