Chapter 112 Gu Zhendong figured it out
Although Su Niannian and Gu Nan didn't hold hands, the sight of them walking side by side was still quite eye-catching.
After all, Gu Nan was tall and strong, while Su Niannian was pretty and delicate.
"Hey, do you guys think these two are going to get back together?"
"No, no, with such good qualities as Xiao Su, she could find anyone she wanted, why would she be interested in Gu Nan..." After saying this, the aunt suddenly hesitated again.
Aside from his unfavorable family background, there's really nothing wrong with Gu Nan as a person.
Aside from being a bit aloof and not very talkative.
The gossip among the aunties and older women continued, but Su Niannian and Gu Nan calmly walked past the intelligence team.
Su Niannian even smiled and waved to these older women.
Although they weren't close, the two still overheard some of what the older women were saying.
They looked at each other and smiled.
This eye contact further increased the credibility of the two people dating among the older women.
The discussion became even more heated.
As they approached the educated youth settlement, Gu Nan said to Su Niannian, "Tomorrow I'm taking my older brother to the county marriage office to process his divorce. How about we meet somewhere around noon?"
Although Gu Nan knew that Su Niannian had a life-saving ability called her spatial ability, he was still a little worried about her.
He wanted to meet Su Niannian in the county town and then go back to the village together.
"Okay," Su Niannian agreed, then thought for a moment.
"Let's meet at the state-run restaurant, the one closest to the black market, and there's a supply and marketing cooperative next door," Su Niannian told Gu Nan.
The reason I went into such detail is because there is more than one state-run restaurant in the county.
Gu Nan was very familiar with the county town and knew which one Su Niannian was referring to, so he replied, "Okay."
As they spoke, the two had already reached the outside of the educated youth settlement. Gu Nan stopped seeing Su Niannian inside and stood outside watching her enter the courtyard.
Su Niannian turned around and waved to Gu Nan, who nodded slightly and left.
Several educated youths witnessed Gu Nan escorting Su Niannian back.
Everyone cast curious glances their way.
On the other side, after Gu Nan returned home, his mother told him that his older brother was looking for him.
Gu Nan nodded, washed his hands, and went to his older brother's room.
Gu Zhendong was sitting against the wall at this moment.
Seeing Gu Nan enter, he forced a smile.
It was clear that Gu Zhendong was somewhat uncomfortable.
"Gu Nan."
"Ah."
Gu Zhendong looked at Gu Nan, wondering how to start the conversation.
Gu Nan wasn't in a hurry, so he sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and looked at his older brother.
Unlike at dinner, Gu Zhendong did not deliberately avoid Gu Nan's gaze.
Gu Nan didn't look anywhere else, but looked at Gu Zhendong, waiting for him to speak.
"I've thought about it, and I think you're right. I was a bit too conservative before."
"Since I am still alive, since that accident did not take my life, and since I have survived, I cannot continue to give up on myself like this."
Gu Nan's gaze softened upon hearing Gu Zhendong's words.
"I'm glad to hear you say that." Gu Nan's voice was calm, but a glimmer of hope had risen in his heart.
“Fengxia left me when I needed her the most. Although I don’t hate her, our relationship was broken, and divorce was inevitable.”
"After the divorce, I'd like to ask Su Niannian to treat my leg. I'll have to trouble you then," Gu Zhendong continued.
Gu Nan nodded.
"Some people are destined to be passersby in our lives. Some come and some go. At least our family is still here and will not leave."
Gu Nan's voice was deep and magnetic, but it carried an even stronger sense of reliability.
"Thank you," Gu Zhendong said sincerely.
"Brothers."
"Since we're starting a new life tomorrow, I'll give you a bath tonight and change you into some clean and tidy clothes."
Gu Nan wanted his older brother to face his new life with a completely new attitude tomorrow.
Gu Zhendong nodded.
Gu Nan left the room to boil water to prepare a bath for his older brother.
His mother also found a clean and tidy set of clothes for Gu Zhendong to wear.
"My older brother said he's willing to let Su Niannian treat his leg," Gu Nan said to his mother, who was burning firewood nearby, as he poured water.
"Okay." Hearing Gu Nan say this, Gu's mother seemed to feel a huge weight lifted from her heart.
"How confident are you in the chances of Nian Nian treating Zhen Dong's leg?" Gu's mother asked again.
Gu Nan really wanted to answer 100%, but since others didn't know Su Niannian's secret, he couldn't insist that she would definitely be cured.
I could only say, "About 70-80%, Nian Nian's medical skills are very good."
Hearing this answer, Gu's mother felt that there was a high chance of recovery, and she was relieved.
Gu Nan carried the bathwater to his elder brother's room.
Gu's mother's face, reflected in the firelight of the burning firewood, appeared somewhat red, but her eyes were even redder.
Her eldest son finally stopped giving up on himself.
very nice.
very nice.
On the other side, as soon as Su Niannian returned to her room, some of the educated youth outside started discussing it.
Everyone is discussing whether Su Niannian is dating Gu Nan.
Although Gu Nan was good-looking and physically strong, his family background was considered a major stain in those days, and he would be the subject of gossip and criticism.
Su Niannian is good in all aspects, so she probably wouldn't have such low requirements.
But how many of the female educated youth here didn't think Gu Nan was good? And how many of the male educated youth could compare to Gu Nan?
Thinking about it that way, I actually think the two of them are quite a good match.
On the other side, after Su Niannian returned to her room, she saw Zhao Sulan writing something with a pen and paper.
"Is she... suddenly going to study hard?" Su Niannian asked Song Zhaodi, puzzled.
Song Zhaodi waved her hand, "No way, she's writing down what she wants to buy for her wedding."
“Oh…” Su Niannian gave a meaningful smile.
"Looks like there's a lot to buy; I even have to write it down in advance."
Su Niannian and Song Zhaodi both spoke in low voices, but the room was so small that even the softest chirping of crickets could be heard.
Moreover, neither of them really intended to speak in hushed tones; they were just lowering their voices slightly.
Zhao Sulan heard it all clearly.
"Ha, some people can only be envious!" Zhao Sulan can speak now, but her voice is hoarse and her throat still hurts when she speaks.
“Yes, if you marry a rich guy from a big city or a big factory, he will definitely buy you a three-wheeled vehicle and a radio, build you a big house, order new furniture, and give you a lot of dowry.” Su Niannian emphasized the word “big”.
Zhao Sulan failed to detect the sarcasm in Su Niannian's words.
On the contrary, she was somewhat smug. Of course, she had married into such a family, so these things would naturally be hers.
