Chapter 25 Having a talent for acting

When Su Xiaomu got up the next morning, Gu Jingcheng was no longer in bed.

His bed was very clean, but it was normal, after all, removing those prejudices, in Su Xiaomu's impression, Gu Jingcheng had always been a man who would clean himself up.

Even though the long robe of the academy he usually wears has been washed a little white, it does not affect his elegant and indifferent temperament at all.

After washing up refreshed, Su Xiaomu heard movement in the kitchen, she walked in with a smile on her face, and saw that Yin and Chen were busy inside, and then took the knife in Yin's hand and began to cut the meat.

"It's all my fault that I got up late, otherwise I wouldn't have to trouble the two sisters-in-law to make breakfast early in the morning."

Su Xiaomu smiled embarrassedly at the two sisters-in-law, she hadn't forgotten that she slept in the same room with Gu Jingcheng yesterday, so there was a little shyness in her smile.

"It's okay, you and the third uncle are newlywed, the two of them should have been more stupid, speaking of the third uncle who got up so early today to fetch water with your eldest brother, we all laughed at him for being shy."

Yin went to wash the vegetables, she joked with a smile Su Xiaomu and said: "The third uncle said that although Xiu Mu came back before, he would also help the family do something, but it was the first time that he got up so early like today, and he hadn't taken his book to read in the yard yet." ”

"But it's not, mother, I got up early in the morning and began to say that we should make something delicious to make up for the third uncle, saying that he must have been tired from studying in the academy, so he thought about coming back to change his mind and do something else to rest and rest."

Although the Chen family was talking about Gu Jingcheng inside and outside of his words, his eyes never left Su Xiaomu.

"This ...... This person who has read a book is different, and he has to do farm work when he rests. ”

She embarrassedly moved her gaze to the pot that was not yet hot: "Are we making buns today?" ”

God knows what Gu Jingcheng was thinking in his heart?

If you don't read a good book, you want to go farming?

Isn't this just like her mother scolded her every day before she came over?

Shouting that you don't read, you don't read, but you want to move bricks?

"Yes, when the time comes, you have to keep an eye on the third uncle and let him eat more."

Chen loved to hold on to Su Xiaomu, until Su Xiaomu showed a shy expression on her face, and the redness steamed on her cheeks, she changed the topic: "Sister-in-law, remember that today's porridge is thicker." ”

"I'll wash the rice, I understand what the second sister-in-law said, don't worry, sisters-in-law, I will definitely take good care of my father-in-law."

Su Xiaomu picked up the rice and walked out, she wanted to go to the water tank to wash, but she happened to run into Gu Jingcheng who came back from carrying water.

The bucket was placed on the ground, and Gu Jingcheng wiped the water stains on his body with a handkerchief.

The clothes he wore yesterday were washed by the Li family at night.

And today, although he was wearing a coarse cloth linen, he didn't make him stand out from everyone at all.

What is the saying?

Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving.

Although it is not very appropriate to describe a man, it is very appropriate to use it on Gu Jingcheng now.

"Xianggong how to ...... today? Why did you get up so early? ”

Su Xiaomu moved to the edge of the pool to wash the rice in small steps, and she quietly skimmed Gu Jingcheng's arm with her spare eyes, good guy, I didn't expect him to be in good shape as a thin scholar.

I just don't know when he came back?

Did you listen to her delicate and contrived words just now?

"Nothing to do."

Gu Jingcheng glanced at her coldly, thinking that she had just said in the kitchen that she would serve herself well, and couldn't help but sarcastically say something to her.

The voice was so low that only two people could hear it.

"Are you so used to pretending in front of others?"

"Of course not."

Su Xiaomu answered his question with a serious face, and said with sincerity: "The most important thing in doing business is to be honest, and the husband said that I am pretending, and I can't afford such a heavy praise." ”

"You ......"

Gu Jingcheng frowned, he was about to reply, Li suddenly called him into the house and had something to say.

"It's just pretending, and it's always pretending."

Gu Jingcheng handed Su Xiaomu a look that she couldn't understand.

"What do you mean? Obviously, you first said that I was pretending, but in the end, I looked like I had been wronged. ”

Su Xiaomu sighed twice, and went to cook porridge with the washed rice.

It was rare for the family to gather around for breakfast.

Because Gu Jingcheng came back, Gu Feng and Gu Hai went to the fields more often than usual, and so did Old Man Gu, although he didn't say anything, he also sat down at the dinner table early.

"Come, Jingcheng, this meat bun was prepared by your sister-in-law and second sister-in-law when they got up early in the morning, you have to eat more, look, I haven't come back for a long time, and my mother thinks you have lost a lot of weight."

Li was distressed and gave the first meat bun to Gu Jingcheng, it is rare for the family to eat meat with an open stomach today, but it is only one meat bun per person.

The broth was also served to Gu Jingcheng first, and Su Xiaomu saw that he was indifferent to the preferential treatment of the whole family, and began to complain in his heart.

said that her bought daughter-in-law was not right-minded, so he, the son who was raised at home since he was a child, didn't think much about the family.

I didn't see her give the bun in her hand to the Li family, let alone give a bowl of broth to Old Man Gu.

While complaining fiercely in her heart, she took a small bite to play the image of her shy little daughter-in-law.

But before she could bite half of the bun, a piece of meat was stuffed into her bowl.

"Xiaomu, you eat too."

Su Xiaomu was really flattered at this time, she held the bowl and looked at Li's face full of joy: "Mother! Just eat! ”

"Mother also knows that you work weekdays, so you have to make up for it when you are free, Jingcheng, you see, the daughter-in-law that my mother married you doesn't say anything else, at least no one in our village can compare with this appearance."

"And she is diligent, these days when you are not at home, you have managed our family inside and out, but she has helped your second sister-in-law and second sister-in-law a lot."

Although Li Shi was sandwiching meat for Su Xiaomu, he could, but he just glanced at her.

Su Xiaomu originally had a lot of words of thanks in his stomach, and he was speechless at this time and took back the bowl to see what Gu Jingcheng could say.

Good fellow, she's a gun-blocker now.

"I'm full."

Gu Jingcheng originally didn't have much appetite this morning, he had always eaten lightly in the academy, and he was not a meat lover himself, so he couldn't raise the slightest desire for meat on a large table.

It just so happened that his mother kept talking about Su Xiaomu in his ear, didn't the meaning of the words just want the two of them to be husband and wife?

Raising his gaze, Gu Jingcheng put down the bowl and left, and the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became sluggish.

Li was a little embarrassed, but in the end it was a pampered son, so she didn't say anything, just scooped another bowl of soup for Old Man Gu.

"It's okay Xiaomu, Jingcheng is not familiar with you yet, and when the two of you get acquainted with each other, he will definitely like you like you like his mother."

Li Shi saw that Su Xiaomu might not have said anything for a long time, so he went to comfort her again.

Su Xiaomu looked at the embarrassed and stiff smile on Li's face, and she didn't know how to talk for a while.

I had to pull my lips and smile slightly, bury my head and start to cook her.

Even if Gu Jingcheng is gone, she doesn't have to continue to perform the image of a shy little daughter-in-law at the dinner table.

After eating, the Chen family took the initiative to take away the work of washing dishes and cleaning up things, Su Xiaomu had nothing to do, thinking that he still had to go to Gu Jingcheng to talk about the matter between them.

"I have something to tell you."
