Chapter 164: It's quite husband and wife
When they arrived at the place, Jiang Yingnian and Guan Jiyu got off the carriage one after another, and Han Xu was already waiting at the gate of the new house.
Guan Jiyu stood at the door, staring at the two houses standing side by side in front of her, she did not move, and silently watched what she had dreamed of with an indifferent attitude.
At this moment, it was close in front of her, Guan Jiyu stretched out her hand, but suddenly felt that she couldn't seem to grasp it.
"Go in and have a look." Jiang Yingnian's words floated from the top of her head to her ears, and he seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness just now, and walked behind her happily and gently pushed her, "Let's go, Ah Yu, let's go in and see."
It's not that Guan Jiyu has never seen the house here, and every step she takes into the house is actually not a surprise. But Jiang Yingnian's intentions, she understands, after the two of them have seen it here, she herself has no time to think about it anymore, but she didn't expect him to remember it in her heart.
"How?" Walking to the small garden in the backyard, where a few dead leaves fell on the swing, Jiang Yingnian walked over and swept away the dead leaves, sat on them, and said, "Actually, I like it here, but I haven't arranged it yet, if I clean it up and decorate it well, it will be more beautiful."
Once the two of them were in this place, Jiang Yingnian sat on the swing and said triumphantly, "The third prince is here, can you still pay for it?" What a goof-head!"
At that time, he also said, "If you like it, this room will be given to you, and the one next door will be given to me."
The words he said in the past seemed to be in his ears, but Guan Jiyu still asked seriously, "How much money did you pay in total for the purchase of these two houses?"
"What? What are you asking for?" Jiang Yingnian teased while swinging, "Don't tell me you want to give me silver?"
Guan Jiyu said: "This is not a small amount of money, no matter how rich you are, it is also your own, how can I let you come out with this money?" Now that I've bought this house, I've bought it, and you've got to let me give my share, right?"
Jiang Yingnian plucked out his ears and sighed, "Women are really troublesome, why do you have to nag so much about such a small matter?" He sat on the swing and swung a few more times, stopped with his foot, and said, "Oh yes! I almost forgot, I only took the title deed, and I haven't taken the key to this house yet. Now this is our territory, and even if we're not here, we've got to lock it up."
Han Xu walked over and said, "Childe, I'll get it."
Jiang Yingnian raised his hand to stop Han Xu and said, "No, let's go over together."
The landlord of the land lived nearby, and the three men walked without horses or chariots, and they arrived after a short walk.
The landlord is also a young man, and this time when he saw Jiang Yingnian coming over with a woman, he got up and half joked and half greeted, "Coming? I brought my sister-in-law with me this time."
Jiang Yingnian was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "What are you talking about?"
Turning her head to look at Guan Jiyu again, she found that her cheeks were slightly pink.
Guan Jiyu Zhengse said: "This time we came here to get the house key, and the last time the two of them came, they only took the title deed."
The landlord nodded and said, "I only cared about talking last time, but I forgot about it." As he spoke, he opened a small cabinet next to him, took out a key from it, looked for it inside, and finally took out two of them, and said, "These are the original keys of your two rooms, if you want to change the locks, you can also change the locks, anyway, this house is already yours."
The landlord took the key and habitually wanted to hand it to Jiang Yingnian, but seeing that Guan Jiyu was also there, he hesitated and handed it to Guan Jiyu: "Outside the male protagonist, inside the female protagonist, since you are both here, I will give it directly to the hostess."
Guan Jiyu took the key, thought for a while, and said, "You misunderstood, we are not ......."
"Isn't it?" The landlord scratched his head and wondered, "Aren't you a husband and wife?"
Jiang Yingnian just smiled, neither admitting nor refuting, and seemed to enjoy this "misunderstanding".
Guan Jiyu nodded and said seriously, "We are not husband and wife, so there is no such thing as a man or a host."
She took out one of the keys, handed it to Jiang Yingnian on the side, and said, "Your key
Keep the spoon for yourself."
Jiang Yingnian let out an "ouch" and said, "Don't you know me as a person? I forgot my stuff wherever I threw it, can you rest assured that I will keep it? I can assure you, if you give it to me, I'll be lost not long after we walk through this door."
"That's it!" The landlord chimed in: "My wife has returned to her parents' house these days because of some things in her mother's house, so I am guarding a bunch of broken keys here.
Jiang Yingnian looked at Guan Jiyu innocently and said, "You should help, help me collect it first, and it's not too late to ask you to get it when I want to use it."
The landlord chimed in, "You can help him hold it, otherwise if you lose it, you will be in trouble." He smiled lightly and said, "Even if they are not husband and wife now, there is no guarantee that they will not be in the future! I think you two are quite husband and wife!"
This sentence of "husband and wife" suddenly reached the tip of Jiang Yingnian's heart, the corners of his mouth rose even more, and his smile was almost uncontrollable, and said, "Okay brother, don't make this kind of joke, we Ah Yu are thin-skinned, how can we stand this kind of joke?"
Guan Jiyu stroked his cheek, grabbed the key and walked out quickly.
Jiang Yingnian squeezed his eyes at the landlord, and the landlord also responded with a wicked smile, Jiang Yingnian put his hands behind his back and swaggered to follow Guan Jiyu.
"Don't go so fast, wait for me."
On the way back, Guan Jiyu seemed to be tired of walking, so he held his waist and stopped to catch his breath a few times before saying, "This little landlord, just take a key, and talk a lot."
"Harmony makes money, and people like him attract more money." Jiang Yingnian said, "Besides, I don't think he said anything wrong."
"You still say?!" Guan Jiyu said unnaturally: "What kind of couple and husband and wife he said, he was obviously laughing at the two of us, not only did you not refute it, but you were still secretly laughing there?"
Jiang Yingnian said innocently again: "People can say whatever they like, where can I care, why should I refute it?"
Guan Jiyu was stunned, and was speechless, so he continued to walk forward in silence.
Jiang Yingnian took a step forward, easily caught up, and said, "Ah Yu, this is just my house key, let alone this, even if everything I have, I am willing to hand it over to you."
Guan Jiyu heard this, and she just wanted to escape, her steps were faster, Jiang Yingnian saw that she wanted to dodge again, so he reached out and grabbed her arm, and said, "What are you running?"
Guan Jiyu still wanted to break free, so he restrained her shoulders with both hands, forcing her to turn around and look directly at him.
Jiang Yingnian hurriedly said, "Ah Yu, I don't want to wait any longer."
Guan Jiyu was puzzled and said, "What are you waiting for?"
Jiang Yingnian hesitated, glanced around, and found that Han Xu was standing not far away consciously, with an attitude of ignoring the things around him. Jiang Yingnian said to Guan Jiyu at this time, "You know what I want to say!"
"Say what?" Guan Jiyu lowered his head and said, "I'm not a roundworm in your stomach, how do I know what you're going to say?"
"Ah Yu! Now I'm just going to ask you one question, and you answer me first!" He was cautious, even breathing nervously, "You and Xiang Lincheng, still ...... Is it that relationship? Do you still have ......?"
"No, no." Guan Jiyu didn't think about it, and said decisively: "I have nothing to do with him anymore, the past is that I was too young to understand it, so I had a lot of stupid thoughts, but all this is over, it has passed, and there will be no more in the future."
Jiang Yingnian breathed a sigh of relief and said excitedly, "That's good, that's good.".
He plucked up his courage again and asked, "So, what do you think of me as a person?"
This question made Guan Jiyu can't help but raise her head, her pupils dilated a little, her eyelashes blinked slightly, and her eyes were clear and bright. It was the first time she had looked at his face so earnestly.
Jiang Yingnian's face was slightly hot, his eyes met her, and he whispered, "Ah Yu, I really like you, I've liked you before."
Guan Jiyu did not speak, he
He continued, "Maybe you never knew it, I liked you for a long time, but I didn't know it myself at the time. Now that I think about it, I probably liked you shortly after I met you."
Guan Jiyu was sullen for a moment, and said softly, "But at that time, you were bullying me all the time, didn't you?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Jiang Yingnian's face, and then he said with annoyance: "I was ignorant before, that's why I was like that! I'll admit that I was naïve at the time, which is why I did a lot of things that annoyed you." He quickly explained, "But haven't I changed now? People will grow up, and now you look at me, have I never bullied you again?"
"It's less than before." Guan Jiyu thought for a moment and replied frankly.
Jiang Yingnian found that Han Xu, who was standing not far away, glanced at him, so he was even more at a loss, and he hurriedly said, "It's not this question, what I mean by saying these words today is to show you that you are a very important person to me. I, Jiang Yingnian, have never liked anyone in my life, only you, Ah Yu, I can protect you with my life."
His voice couldn't help but raise a little, and he continued, "I just want to be with you, I want to be in the same place as you, I don't think my idea is strange, I like someone, don't I just want to be with her?"
Guan Jiyu held the key tightly in her palm, even if the key had hurt her palm, she didn't let go.
Jiang Yingnian finally said from the bottom of his heart: "I used to be a person who only thought about myself in everything I did, but you taught me how to think about others, and I learned a lot of things from you, such as loyalty and dare. Later, when we joined the Xiang military camp together, I realized that these two things can come in handy wherever we go."
Guan Jiyu's tears suddenly welled up, she didn't dare to move, she lowered her eyes and didn't dare to blink.
Jiang Yingnian said in a tone that she had never seen before, even if she didn't look at his expression, from his voice, Guan Jiyu could hear his sincerity.
He said, "There is nothing wrong with living for ourselves, but since we have sworn to defend this country, we should uphold our commitments and remain loyal and righteous. Ah Yu, I believe that my eldest brother thought the same way when he founded the Green Word Camp."
Guan Jiyu already knew what he meant.
Sure enough, that question was thrown again, and Jiang Yingnian said, "I never thought of forcing you to do anything, and I respect any decision you make. I just want to make sure again, which of the two options do you choose?"
