Chapter 934 The Honest Girl Who Went Crazy (9)
After Mu Zhou finished eating and showed a satisfied expression,
Gu Huaiyuan then realized that she really hadn't eaten enough.
He thought for a while and said:
"I have some money left, enough to keep you from going hungry. Eat whatever you want."
Mu Zhou was comfortably rubbing her belly when she heard his words, and her face turned slightly red:
"I'm here to be your babysitter, so I can't eat too much of you."
Gu Huaiyuan twitched the corner of his mouth:
"Just behave yourself and don't cause me any trouble. I'll just treat you to a meal; it won't bankrupt me."
*
After the meal, Gu Huaiyuan still took Mu Zhou back to the guesthouse.
He spent the entire day going through procedures and writing application explanations.
He had too many things to do, including getting married, joining his military unit, and applying for housing.
I never expected that just asking Xiao Li to keep an eye on things for a bit would almost lead to some scandal.
He dared not let anyone else come now, so he had to send the person back himself.
Along the way, many people recognized him, greeted him, and tentatively asked about Mu Zhou.
He glanced at Mu Zhou, who was standing honestly beside him, and naturally did not hide anything.
Everyone was astonished.
Everyone knows he is a well-known bachelor in the military.
Unexpectedly, during this vacation, they got married without anyone noticing.
They all offered their congratulations and said they wanted to eat his wedding candy.
Gu Huaiyuan agreed to each of them.
Back at the guesthouse, Mu Zhou took out the sponge cake he had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative:
"Second Brother Gu, try it, it's especially delicious."
Gu Huaiyuan, who had just finished eating, was actually unable to eat anymore, but Mu Zhou looked at him with bright eyes, and he took one as if possessed.
Mu Zhou then took one as well.
She ate without looking flustered, and she didn't seem to eat very fast, but she finished one in just a few bites.
Gu Huaiyuan could tell that she wanted to eat it herself.
However, her appetite did indeed surprise him.
So it seems she didn't eat enough on the train.
She was honest and didn't say a word; she ate as much as she was given.
Gu Huaiyuan finished eating the sponge cake he was holding and casually asked:
"The family compound now has apartment buildings and small courtyard houses. Is there any type you particularly want to live in?"
Gu Huaiyuan was about to explain to her again what a tenement building was when he heard Mu Zhou say with delight:
"A bungalow with a small yard? Can you grow things in a small yard in the city?"
"……certainly."
He learned that Mu Zhou liked houses with small courtyards.
Sure enough, she immediately said:
"I like the little courtyard."
Mu Zhou was especially happy today. He ate his fill, had some chicken cake, and learned that he would be living in a bungalow with a small courtyard in the future.
Back when she lived in the Li family, there wasn't a single place that belonged to her.
Actually, she really wanted to carve out a small space in the yard to plant her favorite sunflowers, wildflowers, and raise chickens.
However, chickens shouldn't be kept in the city; they squawk, and people will be annoyed.
So she raised fish.
Since the fish makes no sound, it must work.
After she told Gu Huaiyuan her idea, Gu Huaiyuan nodded:
"can."
You can plant anything in the yard, or you can plant nothing at all.
As for raising fish, that's no problem at all.
However, raising fish requires buying a large tank or basin.
He pondered for a moment.
Mu Zhou had no idea what he was thinking. Seeing that he had agreed, she was even happier and couldn't help but blink her starry eyes at him as she said:
"Second Brother Gu, you are so kind."
Gu Huaiyuan looked at her, and something else unconsciously appeared in his eyes.
But he quickly regained his senses, and his expression gradually became serious.
He rubbed the oil off his fingertips, then suddenly changed his tone, saying coldly:
"I'm leaving now. Take care of yourself for the next few days and don't wander around."
"Yes, I will be obedient, Second Brother Gu, you don't need to worry about me."
"..."
Who's worried about her?
Gu Huaiyuan pursed his lips and left in silence.
*
Gu Huaiyuan is on vacation today.
I took Mu Zhou to the city early in the morning.
Along the way, everything Mu Zhou saw was fascinating.
It was her first time riding a bus, and the tall buildings and cars on the road were all so dazzling that she couldn't take her eyes off them.
This is clearly the behavior of someone who has just entered the city for the first time.
Gu Huaiyuan didn't stop her and let her look around.
Once inside the mall, it was crowded, and she stayed close to Gu Huaiyuan.
When the crowd was dense, she would secretly tug at his clothes.
Gu Huaiyuan naturally noticed.
He initially wanted to pull away, but seeing the confusion and helplessness on her face, he suppressed his impulse.
It was her first time meeting so many people, and she was in an unfamiliar place, so it was normal for her to cling to him out of fear.
Next time, next time I'll make her stand obediently to the side and not allow her to touch him.
Gu Huaiyuan thought to himself.
They first went to the second floor where clothing and fabrics were sold. Without saying a word, Gu Huaiyuan told Mu Zhou to pick out the fabrics.
"Half an hour, go pick out at least three outfits, no less than two hundred yuan each, and I'll go buy some other things."
He stated his requirements clearly and concisely to prevent Mu Zhou from being hesitant to buy because he was reluctant to spend the money.
Seeing that Mu Zhou was about to refuse, he added:
"Don't waste time, I'll finish buying it before I get back."
Finished talking and left.
The sales clerk, who overheard this, leaned against the clothes rack and winked at her:
"Comrade, your man is so good to you."
She could tell at a glance that this young woman had just come from the countryside to join the army. Although the soldier looked cold and spoke in a serious tone, he spoke very kindly.
Don't listen to what a man says, look at what he does.
A good man is one who is willing to spend money on his wife.
She's been selling clothes here for a long time and has seen a lot of people who look down on women from the countryside, but are reluctant to spend money on them.
Moreover, the man clearly meant that he was afraid his wife wouldn't be willing to spend the money.
The sales clerk's words made Mu Zhou's ears turn red, and she whispered in agreement:
"He is indeed a very good person."
Fearing that he would waste time waiting for her after he returned, Mu Zhou began to make his selections.
Apart from her red wedding dress, all her clothes were dark and drab.
When Mu Zhou was choosing again, he deliberately picked some bright colors.
Actually, having dark skin doesn't necessarily mean you have to wear dark colors; sometimes, it can make you look even more dull.
Moreover, her original skin tone wasn't dark, though it wasn't particularly fair either.
But as long as you stop working in the fields, you'll regain your fair complexion quickly with some rest.
She was quick to choose, and the few items she picked were all very suitable for her.
When I tried it on and came out, the salesperson couldn't help but praise how beautiful it looked.
She even took the initiative to pick up a sky-blue dress, which was quite unusual for her.
"This is a newly delivered spring style, and no one has tried it before. I originally thought it wouldn't suit your skin tone, but I didn't expect it to suit you so well. You should try it."
Mu Zhou held it up to himself and it looked really good.
The sky blue color made her look very clean, as if it had a brightening effect.
So I went in to try it on.
When they came out, Gu Huaiyuan had already returned.
He was carrying a lot of things in both hands, and when he turned around, he saw Mu Zhou coming out of the fitting room.
His gaze unconsciously lingered on her.
At this moment, Mu Zhou was in a state that he had never imagined.
The dress has a neckline somewhat like a naval uniform, with narrow shoulders and a cinched waist. It's bright, vibrant, and perfectly proportioned.
It suits her very well.
