Chapter 40: Riding A Bicycle Was Like Being In His Arms! (1/2)
Actually, she did not have much to prepare. She simply tidied herself.
In these times, young girls wore their hair in two plaits. After marriage, they wore it in a single large braid. Gu Qingyao was only 15 years old, so she wore her hair in two braids, plaited at her ears. She carefully combed her hair and braided it.
Then she put on a clean set of clothes, grabbed her coat and a small, olive green bag.
Mo Beihan had given her this bag. If she looked at it with the eyes of her reborn self, it was rather unsophisticated. But now, it was considered to be very fashionable.
Her bag had been the envy of many young girls in the brigade!
Gu Ruoqing, in particular, had been hungrily eyeing this bag for a long time.
Thinking about it made Gu Qingyao want to laugh.
Gu Qingyao left after tidying herself. She noticed that the lights in her grandparent’s room were on. They had already woken up, but Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing’s room was still pitch dark.
Gu Qingyao was used to it.
She went to Gu Yunshen’s room. “Father, I’ll be going to town with Brother Beihan later. Here is breakfast for you, Grandfather and Grandma.”
Gu Qingyao took out meat buns and boiled eggs, but Gu Yunshen refused them. “No need. Leave the boiled eggs, but bring the buns with you! Their smell is too strong. Also, we don’t need to eat food like this every day. We still have to eat the coarse grain.”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “Father, I know, but I don’t want to see you suffer! Grandfather and Grandma are so old, but have no better food to eat. You don’t need to worry about that mother and daughter duo finding out. They won’t get up until the sun is high in the sky.”
Gu Yunshen did not say anything.
Gu Qingyao offered the food again. “If there’s good food, why not eat it?”
Gu Yunshen agreed after some thought, so he quickly washed up and returned to eat the food. Then he went to the next room and asked the older folks to quickly brush their teeth and eat.
