Chapter 45: Confession
CHAPTER XLV
The more Gu's mother told her son, the more she felt that this matter was reliable. Before, she didn't look down on Zhang Cuilian's maiden family, but the problem is that Zhang Cuilian herself is too brilliant.
"Mom! Don't think about it, it's not appropriate. Gu Zhicheng asked with a smile: "By the way, you said that you knitted gloves." I can't bring it with me, so I'll use it for my dad. There are white gloves in the unit, so let's make do with them! ”
Gu's mother said distressedly: "Then where is it, the white gloves are not frost-resistant." Zhang Cuilian's gloves are thick, and they are still five-fingered. Don't delay your work, turn around and let you go a little bit! ”
Gu Zhicheng excused himself: "No need, use it for my father." Seeing that winter is over, it is hot to clear the snow and train for a day. No gloves required! ”
Gu's mother was anxious: "You just don't take care of your body, when will it snow in April?" Besides, the wind is strong in spring, and you have to wear gloves. Oops, you're just disobedient. Alright, I'll bring it to you when I get back! ”
After hanging up the phone, Gu's mother hurriedly found out the gloves. After thinking about it, she scooped a bottle of hot sauce from the kitchen, which she asked Zhang Cuilian to teach her to make.
said that it was teaching, but in fact, Zhang Cuilian did it herself. When wrapping these two things, Gu's mother couldn't help but think about Zhang Cuilian's appearance.
It's okay to have a small body, although it's a little thinner, but it's not too much. It's also pretty good-looking, but the key is that it doesn't have the rustic atmosphere of a countryman. Speak and act according to her own heart, and she will not be ashamed when she goes out.
Gu's mother remembered that time, she took a little coffee out. rushed to Zhang Cuilian to drink, and her reaction startled her.
In the past, there was also a girl who went on a blind date with Gu Zhicheng to come to the house, and she deliberately poured a cup of coffee for others to drink. Almost all of them grinned bitterly, and some even asked: Why did you give her a decoction.
Only the girl introduced by Lao Ma's family in the compound is slightly better. I endured it with a white face, but I also pretended to know a lot and wanted to add a spoonful of malt milk essence.
But Zhang Cuilian was drinking coffee at home that day, and the reaction made her very satisfied.
She took the coffee and smelled it, and her face was comfortable: "It's so fragrant!" ”
Gu Ma's eyes were on her face, and she nodded and smiled: "Then you taste it, this is a new bean." ”
Zhang Cuilian took a sip, and said with a smile after a long time: "The mouth has a sweet aftertaste, and there is a slight sour taste when you taste it carefully." ”
Gu's mother was very excited and asked several times: "Are you really drinking coffee for the first time?" ”
Zhang Cuilian nodded again and again: "I've only heard it before, and this is indeed the first time I've drunk it." I think my aunt is really different from others, especially tasteful and exquisite. ”
Gu's mother smiled from ear to ear: "What you said is true?" ”
Zhang Cuilian nodded again and again: "I found out a long time ago, do you remember the time I gave my aunt an egg roll?" People say it's delicious, or it's weird, it's fresh. As soon as I saw my aunt's expression, I knew that you must be a connoisseur! ”
Gu's mother was praised flutteringly: "That's not it, it's just that I have seen more before." ”
Zhang Cuilian's chick pecked rice: "That's why it's different." People eat it like Zhu Bajie swallowing ginseng fruit, blinding my hard work. Auntie doesn't, just say taste coffee, that's not something ordinary people can enjoy! ”
These words reached Gu's mother's heart, and she caught her bosom friend: "Why are you so right!" How many years, the families of your uncle's comrades-in-arms. None of them were willing to drink with me, and they all said behind my back that I was drinking a decoction and cat urine! ”
Zhang Cuilian chuckled: "It's like eating." People eat to satisfy their stomachs, and you eat to taste food. The level is different, and people will never understand your height! ”
Recalling this, Gu's mother felt more and more that Zhang Cuilian was really rare. At least the taste is not too far from himself, and he admires himself very much. I don't know how much better than the girls who were introduced, especially the girls of the Gao Gan family.
If she gets married in the future, she will be obedient if she is still cured. The more Gu's mother thought about it, the happier she became, and she no longer felt that Zhang Cuilian couldn't accompany her baby son.
hung up the phone, and the corners of Gu Zhicheng's mouth flashed with a triumphant smile. He knows his mother too well, if he directly says that Zhang Cuilian is good. Then she will definitely pick out all kinds of bad things about Zhang Cuilian. Mother, has a natural rejection of her daughter-in-law. Especially a woman like her mother, who has always been controversial because she was too tall.
If people look down on her, her arrogant self-confidence can't accept it. will only look at what makes Zhang Cuilian different from others, and the more she looks, the more satisfied she feels.
Gu Zhicheng took out the newspaper from the newspaper shelf and hurriedly walked to the dormitory while the night was dark.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the family slept a lot. Until the sound of firecrackers in every house, the noise was so noisy that I couldn't sleep. Zhang Cuilian crawled out of the quilt lazily, got dressed and walked out.
"Is our family going to start visiting relatives?" Zhang Cuilian rubbed her eyes and asked with a smile.
"Your father has long since left and gone to the grave. What kind of relatives are gone, their brothers have a drink! "Dong Lihua is a person who doesn't like to be lively, and she saw her daughter get up. Went to the kitchen and ordered her a bowl of noodles. After heating up a few more leftovers, he said with a smile: "Let's stop today!" ”
As soon as I had finished eating, I heard a knock on the door. Dong Lihua opened the door and saw that it was a neighbor, and the neighbor's man said: "Someone is calling for you, you go and answer the phone!" ”
Dong Lihua nodded, said hello and went next door. In less than a minute, I heard someone open the door and whispered, "Is Uncle Xie at home?" ”
Zhang Cuilian sounded a little familiar, and said, "My dad is out, come in if you have something!" ”
Zhang Cuilian walked out, and the man went inside. Zhang Cuilian saw a touch of army green in front of her, it was Guo Jianjun who she met yesterday.
"I changed my bike back." Guo Jianjun smiled, and Zhang Cuilian found out. Facing the sun, he still has a dimple on his face.
"Oh, no hurry. Come in and warm up! It's just a polite sound, Zhang Cuilian didn't expect Guo Jianjun to really enter the house.
He took off his hat and pulled off the discipline button. Guo Jianjun sat down in a posture of straddle the horse with a horizontal sword. "Isn't your mom home either?"
Guo Jianjun found that Zhang Cuilian seemed to be the only one in the family.
Zhang Cuilian poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, nodding: "My dad went to the grave, and my mom went next door to answer the phone." ”
Guo Jianjun nodded: "That's right, I'll just say some things directly." ”
Zhang Cuilian felt a little nervous, and a woman's instinct was to run. Guo Jianjun is a straightforward character and will not hesitate when he encounters an opportunity.
He spoke, "Although we only met once yesterday, I can see that you are an independent modern woman. There is no corrupt thought on the little girl in the countryside who has never seen the world. ”
Zhang Cuilian lowered her head, somewhat understanding what this guy was going to say. Guo Jianjun put the glass in his hand on the table: "Originally, I wanted to ask you in front of your parents." It seems that the time is not right today, but it is fine. If there are too many people, it will interfere with your thoughts. ”
Zhang Cuilian raised her head and took a deep breath: "I'm very independent, you can say it directly." ”
Guo Jianjun nodded with satisfaction: "I think you are very good, so I want to ask you." Would you like to deal with me? ”
Although Zhang Cuilian made mental preparations, she still made a big red face.
Guo Jianjun said with a smile: "Don't be shy, this is human nature." Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Guo Jianjun, and I am an active-duty soldier. He is 25 years old and has three older brothers who are married. Two older sisters are married. The parents are still alive, and they are honest farmers. No bad hobbies, good health. So I want to ask you what you mean, if you want to do that, then we'll deal with it. When you graduate, get married. ”
Zhang Cuilian was speechless, this is too straightforward. What did she say, and how did she answer? God, when will Mama Xie come back? It's so embarrassing, I can't stand it.
Guo Jianjun looked at Zhang Cuilian and bowed her head silently, not knowing whether she was willing or unwilling. After thinking about it, he said softly: "Now is the freedom to marry, completely follow your own wishes." I know it's too abrupt, and that's okay. If you think about it, I didn't leave until the fifth day of junior high school. ”
Zhang Cuilian wanted to say: I don't have to think about it, I'm just not happy. I have someone in my heart, where do you love?
Before he could speak, he heard the sound of the door opening. Dong Lihua said: "Cui Lian'er, a guest at home?" ”
Zhang Cuilian found the life-saving straw and quickly stood up: "Well, come and return the bicycle!" ”
Dong Lihua entered the house with a smile: "I said why did you see our bicycle, you came on a bicycle and an empty car?" ”
Guo Jianjun nodded: "Well, ride when you go back!" ”
Zhang Cuilian pretended to be calm and asked, "Mom, who called?" ”
Dong Lihua shook her head and smiled, Guo Jianjun got up and said goodbye with interest: "Auntie, I'll go first." You're busy! ”
Dong Lihua sent the person out with a smile: "Your uncle is not at home today, or let him accompany you more." ”
Guo Jianjun said with a smile: "It's okay, I have few holidays." You should also spend more time with your parents! ”
Seeing that Gu Jianjun was riding a bicycle without a figure, Dong Lihua plugged in the back door. When he entered the house, he frowned and said, "He wants to deal with you?" ”
Zhang Cuilian blushed: "Did you hear that?" ”
Dong Lihua smiled mysteriously: "That's not it, I guessed it." If it wasn't interesting to you, could you come back on the first day of the new year? ”
Zhang Cuilian was sullen: "Don't you think it's inappropriate?" You're not at home, but he's telling me this! ”
Dong Lihua laughed: "Why are you so pedantic, you are not as good as me as an old lady!" ”
Zhang Cuilian twisted and pulled the corner of her clothes: "I just don't think it's good, and I just met once." Everyone is not familiar with each other, and there is no one at home! ”
Dong Lihua raised her head and laughed, and asked rhetorically: "Blue sky and white sun, yes, you two are sitting so far away." What can people do? Besides, the lad is quite straightforward. ”
After speaking, he asked Zhang Cuilian what Guo Jianjun said.
Zhang Cuilian learned what happened just now in a sullen manner: "What does he mean, he still wants to ask me before leaving." I was embarrassed to say it directly, but when my dad came back, I asked him to tell him. I'm not happy! ”
