Chapter 300: You Were Called Only To Carry Things (1) (1/2)
In the afternoon, Gu Qingyao was teaching the kids to read and write at home while Gu Ruoqing regained her energy after a full meal and good nap in the Chen family’s house.
Ever since she entered the Wang family, she had never led such comfortable days.
In the afternoon, Gu Ruoqing still had to go out to dig for wild vegetables and Chen Honghua followed along as part of fawning her. When they returned in the evening, Chen Honghua gave all the vegetables that she dug to Gu Ruoqing.
Gu Ruoqing smiled. “Thank you, Honghua. In the city, we have to spend money to buy everything and can’t even eat wild vegetables when we want to. The conditions in the city is amazing. There’s fish and meat everyday and it’s easy to get tired of them. My mother wants to eat wild vegetables but there’s none available so I have to come back while it’s spring to dig some and store them.”
There’s fish and meat everyday and it’s easy to get tired of them…
Chen Honghua could not help but swallow her saliva. She really yearned to lead such a city life.
Immediately, she flattered Gu Ruoqing with a smile to please her, “Qing Qing, you’re really blissful now. No wonder you can become chubby. What good fortune!
“It would be great if I could be like you!”
Gu Ruoqing only smiled in return.
Chen Honghua only let Gu Ruoqing leave after making her stay for dinner. Before leaving, Gu Ruoqing even took two cornbreads from the Chen family and said that there’s no such food in the city and that she wanted to bring it back for her mother to try.
Chen Honghua sent Gu Ruoqing off and only returned when she saw Gu Ruoqing’s figure disappearing in the distance.
Gu Qingyao was on the waist of the mountain as she watched both of them leave the brigade and walk in the direction that led to town. When Gu Ruoqing left, Chen Honghua still stood there for a long time.
They looked very close when they walked together!
Gu Qingyao tapped her chin while thinking.
She remembered that in the previous lifetime, Chen Honghua and Gu Ruoqing had always been on good terms, especially after Gu Ruoqing followed Zhang Xiaohui into the city.
