[3Qโ รท โ .], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
"Object?" Gu Minglang drove the car, but most of his attention was on Liao Qingmei.
The expression was faint, in fact, she was very annoyed in her heart and didn't listen to Gu Minglang's words and waited for him to go home together, but in the end, Liao Qingmei, who was still in his car, suddenly heard him ask, and didn't react for a while, and it took a while to remember what she said to her aunt before getting off the bus.
Obviously, they were sitting in the bus, and Gu Minglang was in the car, how did he hear her?
"......" Liao Qingmei pretended to be stupid and didn't reply.
She didn't speak, Gu Minglang was also in a good mood, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, she looked at Liao Qingmei's itchy teeth, and asked him out loud, "Why did you come to Jingbei?"
Gu Minglang is in the army, logically speaking, it is impossible to be so free in time, first met him at school before the college entrance examination, and then met him again today, he is everywhere!
"Out of the task. Three words answered the question, and by the way, Liao Qingmei's words were blocked.
Liao Qingmei shrugged her shoulders and didn't ask any more, the task, whether it is confidential or not, it is better to ask less.
The moonlight on the summer night was bright, and there was only one car on the whole road, Gu Minglang's speed was a little faster than usual, although he wanted to be selfish and spend more time with his little girl, but at this point, the Liao family must be very worried about her.
"What are you going to do?" From the moment he saw her, Gu Minglang noticed the snake belt at her feet, and even if he got into the car, he refused to put it in the back seat, insisting on putting it at his feet.
Look very closely.
Liao Qingmei stretched out her foot and touched the snake belt under her feet, and pouted, "Goods, I plan to be a small trader in the summer vacation." โ
At this time, most people wear colored glasses when dealing with private shops and small traders, and those who are a little more angry not only look down on these people, but also attack and suppress them.
She was so outspoken, I have to say that in fact, she also had the intention of testing Gu Minglang in her heart.
"Oh. Gu Minglang raised his eyebrows, he didn't mean to look down on the vendors, on the contrary, he always felt that these people lived very hard, and they relied on their own skills to eat, which was completely worthy of support and encouragement.
He just didn't expect that Liao Qingmei would do these things, at this time, it is not good to be a merchant with a thick skin, and he must have a super psychological endurance.
Otherwise, the gossip of the people around you can drive people crazy.
"Do you have enough money? โ
Speaking of money, Liao Qingmei's eyes widened, "Your money and passbook are still with me, you quickly take them away, you can rest easy with such a large sum of money!"
"Anyway, you will be in charge of it in the future, and it will be the same if you give it early or late. Gu Minglang smiled, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said it as a matter of course.
"......" Liao Qingmei found that even if she was reborn in a lifetime, her face was not half as thick as Gu Minglang's, and her face instantly became a little hot, "Don't talk nonsense." โ
Her attitude of resistance was too obvious, and the smile on Gu Minglang's face was put away, and it became a little serious, "If that person is not me, it is any other person, you ...... Will you accept this family business?"
As soon as he finished asking this, Gu Minglang couldn't wait to slap himself in the mouth, what he said was not good, he had to mention this matter!
Liao Qingmei was silent and looked out the window.
In fact, she has always faintly regretted that her attitude was not clear enough, and she pinned her hopes on outsiders she didn't know.
Because he couldn't bear to refuse Grandma Liao, he went against what he really thought in his heart.
Now she is no longer the stupid girl in her previous life who thought she was a lifelong girl, she is conservative, but she has no psychological obstacles because of the things in her previous life, and she will not be stupid enough to guard Fang Zhicheng for another life.
She just didn't want to touch her feelings.
"No, it won't. โ
The hand holding the steering wheel tightened, and Gu Minglang was silent for a while before he pretended to speak easily, "Okay, I know." โ
Liao Qingmei felt a little guilty, and after a while of fighting in her heart, she turned her face and was about to explain to Gu Minglang, when she saw that his face had changed back to a relaxed expression.
"Haha, it's good that it's not because I'm like this, and I'm suddenly relieved. Suppressing the sorrow in his heart, Gu Minglang smiled extraordinarily brightly, and turned his face to look at Liao Qingmei, "I'm really glad that it's me who can stand by your side justifiably, hey, there must be no more suitable and better person around you than me, right." โ
Inexplicably, I felt that he was very proud of what he said.
So...... Asking that question so seriously is not intended to be clear with her!
So, he just wanted to tease her, right?!
Liao Qingmei, "......"
"Angry?" Gu Minglang leaned towards Liao Qingmei with a hippie smile, holding the hand on the steering wheel, but trembling slightly in Liao Qingmei's insight.
"Drive well, stay safe!" Liao Qingmei pushed him back into his seat and glared at him angrily.
The two said something innocuous and soon arrived at the gate of the compound, Gu Minglang wanted to go in to meet his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, but Liao Qingmei bit him to death, and he didn't even let him in at the door of the compound.
During the routine inspection at the door, she picked up her goods, jumped out of the car, and disappeared into the night.
On the highway outside the compound, Gu Minglang sat in the car, his hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly, leaned on the back of the chair, looked at the stars in the night sky, and did not come back to his senses until the cigarette butt almost burned his hand, and left the car.
And the Liao family, Liao's father and Liao's mother sat in the small hall, looking at Liao Qingmei who was smiling and begging for mercy at the door.
"Dad, Mom, it's so late, you haven't slept yet?" Liao Qingmei had a bitter face, Liao's mother would be at home except for overtime, but Liao's father was busy a lot, and often came back in the middle of the night, why is he here today?
"Don't call me haha, be serious!" Liao's father made a straight face, pointed to the chair next to him, and motioned for her to sit.
Just as Liao Haoyu poked his head out of the small room, and when he saw Liao Qingmei looking at him, he immediately gave her a look of self-begging and retracted back into the room.
Stinky boy, it's so unwilling!
Liao Qingmei sat down awkwardly, "Mom and Dad, it's so late, let's go to bed quickly, don't you have to go to work tomorrow." โ
"Ah, by the way, I'm going to have a holiday tomorrow, and I'll take care of all the housework in the future, you can go to work with peace of mind, I promise to do a good job in logistics, so that ......"
"Say, where have you gone!" Dad Liao didn't listen to her at all, and with a wave of his face, he directly suppressed her words.
Liao's mother glanced at Liao Qingmei, who was looking at her pleadingly, and looked away.
"I ......" Liao Qingmei squeaked, not knowing how to speak, her small business had just begun, and she hadn't seen the benefits yet.
Seeing her like this, Liao's father let out a long sigh, "I just said that you are a little more sensible, and you ...... Alas!"
Liao Qingmei couldn't stand Liao's dad like this, and her eyes immediately turned red, "Dad!"
Liao's father lifted his eyelids and glanced at her, did not speak, picked up the tea jar on the table, took a sip of tea, and stared at Liao Qingmei's every move out of the corner of his eye.
"These are the goods I picked up in the provincial capital today. Liao Qingmei brought over the snakeskin bag placed by the door and took out the contents one by one.
It's all bits and pieces, don't look at the sale of a lot at the gate of the school, but there is still half of it left, this one is taken out suddenly, it's still quite shocking.
"This ...... What are you doing here?" Liao's mother looked at Liao Qingmei in disbelief, her eyes were red, "Am I short for you to eat or short for you to drink, you are going to do these things, do you know, if it is left in the past few years, you will be! You will ......"
Liao's mother can't go on, don't blame her for her old thoughts, she is also a person from a special era, and what she has seen and heard with her own eyes in those years has left a deep psychological shadow in her heart.
This is speculation! It's a crime!
Liao's mother was so anxious that she couldn't do it, seeing that Liao's father was still pondering the things on the table, her heart swelled with anger, she was reluctant to beat her daughter, she could still beat the old man, and slapped him hard, "When is this happening, you don't say a word!
"...... "Dad Liao, say as if I can have a baby."
Liao's mother sat on the side and sulked, Liao's father rubbed his arm and looked at Liao Qingmei, "These are all from you, goods?"
"Hmm. Liao Qingmei nodded honestly.
Liao's mother was even more angry.
"Spent all your own and Haoyu's New Year's money?" Liao's father said in his heart, his mother-in-law is becoming more and more ignorant of the severity, and she is beaten to death!
"Hmm!" Liao Qingmei lowered her head.
Liao's mother can be on fire in her eyes.
"Oh, no! I've already paid for it. Liao Qingmei hurriedly dug out her pockets, took out all the money, and then told all about how she spent all the money and how she went to set up a stall at the gate of the school.
"Ninety-two yuan and seven cents and five, and the total amount of money between me and Haoyu is eighty-four yuan and five cents. Liao Qingmei looked at Liao's father and Liao's mother carefully, "Excluding the travel expenses, I also earned eight yuan and two cents and five cents." โ
There was a hint of praise in his words.
"You're still proud, aren't you!Ah! You're bolder than most of you now! Hide from me and your dad to go to the provincial capital, how can you do that!" Liao's mother was still angry, she couldn't help it, and twisted Liao's father who was sitting next to her again, "Look at the good daughter you gave birth to!"
โโฆโฆ And these goods. Liao Qingmei glanced at her cheeks sympathetically, twitched Liao's father, who had been holding it, and pointed to the neglected goods.
In fact, Liao's father was not angry with Liao Qingmei at all, he was worried about her, after all, a big girl didn't even have a letter, so she came home so late.
If he hadn't believed in his daughter, Liao's father would have been unable to sit still and look for someone everywhere, and when he saw Liao Qingmei, he would definitely have a good meal first, where could he sit and wait for her to explain.
Fortunately, it didn't disappoint him.
On the contrary, the child can have such an idea and put it into practice, he is very happy.
Liao's father has more contact with things in the office than Liao's mother, and the national policy is even more clear, Liao Qingmei is by no means a crime to do this, but something that the state encourages now.
It's just that I can't explain this matter to Liao's mother for the time being, in front of Liao Qingmei, he can't be blind in the back, in case the child's heart floats up because of earning money, it's a bad thing.
Setting up a stall to do business during the summer vacation, he has no objection, so he regards it as a work-study program.
Thinking of this, Liao's father motioned to Liao Qingmei to put away the money, "If you really want to do it, Dad doesn't object to you, but you have to know that your identity is still a student, and everything still has to focus on studying. โ
Liao Qingmei's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly.
"Understood!"
