Fast-paced era: a warm and leisurely life

Chapter 213 The Weak Girl of the Age 20

Niu Ru curled his lips: "It's just a gift of water, not some delicacies from the mountains and the sea. Why are you shouting so loudly? Who doesn't have water to drink?"

"Niu Ru, you look like... like you're eating grapes..."

Another person rushed to say: "If you can't eat the grapes, you say they are sour!!"

"Right, right, right. Even if you can't eat the grapes and say they're sour, you can still ask your kid to bring you water. Oh! I forgot, your kid was sent to the hospital because of you, hahaha!"

"Hahaha! You, Niu Ru, are the first one to push such a big boy into the hospital."

Niu Ru was so angry that he was shaking all over, his face flushed red, he rolled up his sleeves and ran towards the people who were talking.

Those people were not afraid either, and they rolled up their sleeves one after another: "Come on, I'm afraid of you!!!"

Brigade Secretary Sheng Qizheng heard the voice and hurried over: "What are you doing? You even have time to fight, are you dissatisfied with the tasks assigned to you?"

When Niu Ru saw Sheng Qizheng coming, he pointed at those people and started to complain as if he had found a backer: "Secretary! You have to take good care of these chatterboxes. They gossip all day long and it affects the image of the brigade!"

The people who were pointed at all rolled their eyes.

"Hey, why don't you talk about how the things your Shen family did affected the image of our team? It's even spread all over the commune, and you still have the nerve to criticize us. At least we didn't do the kind of thing that involves having an engagement and then having an affair."

"That's right! If we go out now, everyone will know what your family has done!"

Niu Ru didn't think she did anything wrong. One was a tuberculosis patient who could die at any time, and the other was a healthy and wealthy city dweller. Anyone would choose the second one!

So she is not wrong!!!

Thinking about it, Niu Ru raised his head high: "Now that Gu Nuanyi has broken off the engagement with our family, you can also go and get engaged to the Gu family! You only know how to show off with words, why don't you marry that sickly ghost!"

Those people shut up. Although their sons didn't have any great abilities, they could still get full work points every day.

Although Gu Nuanyi is beautiful, it is a fact that she is in poor health. Her family cannot afford to support her.

Seeing that those people were silent, Niu Ru shook his head proudly and was about to say a few more ridicules.

Sheng Qizheng quickly interrupted Niu Ru's performance: "Alright, hurry up and get back to work! If you keep yelling or fighting, I'll call the scorekeeper to deduct your work points!"

Niu Ru's voice was loud, and Guo Zhenru's family heard it clearly.

Guo Zhenru looked at Gu Nuanyi worriedly, patted Gu Nuanyi's hand and said loudly: "My dear! Don't pay attention to what they say. Even if you don't get married for the rest of your life, your father and mother can support you."

I speak so loudly just for those gossipy aunties to hear.

She, Guo Zhenru’s daughter, can afford to support herself!!!

Gu Nuanyi held Guo Zhenru's arm and said coquettishly: "Then mother must keep her word~ I will stay at home as an old maid for the rest of my life~~"

After saying that, she smiled sweetly

Guo Zhenru laughed so hard that her heart almost melted: "Okay!"

Gu Nuanyi didn't take those people's words to heart at all. Even if she was healthy, she would not rush to please someone.

Isn't it good to live your own life? It's not like you can't live without a man.

I met a good mother-in-law in my previous life, but this does not mean that I can meet such a good mother-in-law in every life.

Gu Jin and Guo Zhenru rested for a while and then went back to work in the fields.

He also reminded Gu Nuanyi: "The weather is hot, go home quickly!"

Gu Nuanyi smiled and nodded, and put the kettle and bowls on the edge of the field so that Gu Jin and Guo Zhenru could drink directly when they were thirsty.

On the way back, Gu Nuanyi met Captain Tang Bei's wife Wei Li.

Wei Li also saw Gu Nuanyi: "Hey, Xiao Nuan! Why are you out today?"

"Hello, Aunt Wei! I'm going to bring some water to my parents."

"What a good child!" Wei Li looked at Gu Nuanyi tenderly.

But Gu Nuanyi could still feel Wei Li's pity for her from that gentle look.

This kind of gaze can be felt from almost everyone as long as you walk around the team.

Except Niu Ru, she wished that Gu Nuanyi would die sooner, so how could she feel pity for Gu Nuanyi?

After chatting with Wei Li for a few minutes, Gu Nuanyi went home

I went to the small vegetable garden behind my house to pick some vegetables, then sat under the shade of a tree and slowly picked and washed them.

Gu Nuanyi couldn't help with the farm work, so she could only do what she could at home.

Gu Nuanyi also secretly brought some spiritual spring water to the water tank in the kitchen

The water in the water tank is pumped from the well by Gu Jin, and the amount used every day is known.

Gu Nuanyi didn't dare to add too much, so she secretly added about two scoops each time.

The diluted spiritual spring water will not have such a good effect. At most, it can relieve some fatigue and make the food taste better.

But it is also good for the body over time.

When Gu Jin and Guo Zhenxia came back from work, Gu Nuanyi also prepared the dishes for lunch.

While washing her hands, Guo Zhenru praised: "Our good boy is really capable. He has washed and cut so many vegetables."

Gu Nuanyi pursed her lips and smiled shyly, hugged Guo Zhenru and ran away

Gu Jin was processing fish in the yard. Seeing Gu Nuanyi trotting out of the kitchen, he quickly shouted, "My dear, walk slowly, don't run!"

Gu Nuanyi ran back to the room and sat on the bed, covering her face: "Huh... Oh, she is an old monster who has lived for four lifetimes, why is she so shy after being praised a few times..."

Gu Nuanyi sat in the room for a while before she heard Guo Zhenru calling her, "My dear, come out for dinner!"

"coming!"

As soon as he sat down, Guo Zhenru served him a bowl of fish soup: "Your father caught this fish from the river when he was off work. It has grown so big and has not been caught by the people in the team. It shows that it is a smart fish."

Gu Nuanyi gave a thumbs up: "Dad was able to catch such a smart fish, Dad is so awesome!!"

Gu Jin smiled naively: "What's the big deal? When the busy farming season is over, Dad will go to the mountains to hunt for you! I'm not bragging, but I was very good back then. I could hunt a wild boar by myself. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to marry your mother!"

Guo Zhenru glared at Gu Jin and said, "How dare you say that? You almost scared me to death that day! You clearly knew that my father was just joking."

Gu Jin held Guo Zhenru's hand and looked at her lovingly: "Because I really want to marry you!!!"

Guo Zhenru blushed: "The good boy is still here!"

Gu Nuanyi quietly held the bowl and drank the fish soup, burying her whole face in the bowl

Hearing Guo Zhenru mention her, Gu Nuanyi immediately ran into the kitchen with a bowl in hand: "Mom, this fish soup is so delicious, I'll get another bowl~~"

Guo Zhenru's face turned even redder, and she glared at Gu Jin coquettishly: "Be more restrained in front of the children."

Gu Jin smiled and glanced towards the kitchen. Seeing that Gu Nuanyi had not come out yet, he quickly approached Guo Zhenru and gave her a kiss.
