Chapter 456 Chrysanthemum
"No way, I feel like there's flesh on my face when I wash it." Gu Qingqing said as she touched her face and felt the flesh under her hands.
Well, she did gain weight.
"I met Meihua when I came back, and she looked a little rounder." Wen Wuyan said, but worried that Qingqing wouldn't believe him, he also reached out and gestured at his cheek, as if to ask where she had gained weight.
"Ah! Really? Maybe I didn't notice it because I see her every day." Gu Qingqing said this but kept it in mind.
The Niu family treats Meihua very well. Now she eats the eggs and meat first, and she probably eats a lot of the fried food that I sent.
Wuyan's words today reminded her. She saw Meihua's reminder and knew that it was okay to eat like this now, but she should not eat like this in the two months before the birth. If she fed the baby in her belly too well, she would suffer during the birth.
What's more, she has twins.
Gu Qingqing figured it out, and her eyes fell on the package he brought in. "What did you pack? Why did you protect it so tightly and not show it to Shengxi?"
Upon seeing this, Wen Wuyan immediately unpacked the package with his hands and feet, "Inside are some small items for the children at home."
As the package was opened, Gu Qingqing saw beautiful handkerchiefs, hairbands, pearl flowers and the like inside. "There are six sets of these. You can choose to give them to those close friends. There is also a darker headband specially for Daxin. There are also books I have read here, but I will not take them away this time. I will give them to the children at home. I know you don't like to show off. I fell in love with this gilded carved bracelet at first sight. Whether it is winter or summer, it will be covered by the sleeves, so it won't be too revealing. Try it on and let me see if it looks good."
Wen Wuyan said as he took out a small cloth bag from the clothes in the package. He opened the bag and found a gilded bracelet inside. The bracelet was exquisitely crafted and had a chrysanthemum pattern carved on it.
He pulled Gu Qingqing's hand and put it around her wrist, then looked left and right. Gu Qingqing knew from his expression that he was very satisfied with his work.
"It looks very nice, I like it very much." Gu Qingqing shook her wrist happily.
"I'm glad you like it. And, look what new things I brought you this time." Wen Wuyan said and continued to rummage through his package. Then Gu Qingqing found four rolls made of unknown large leaves from under her clothes.
"What is this?" Gu Qingqing looked at the leaf roll curiously.
"There is a bookstore in the county. The owner is a chrysanthemum lover. He grows many chrysanthemums in various colors in the backyard of the bookstore. I told him that you also love flowers and plants, so I asked him for a few branches." Wen Wuyan said as he opened the leaves in the package one by one. In each roll, there were two chrysanthemum branches that were more than half a foot long lying quietly.
"The boss said chrysanthemums can survive as cuttings, so he gave me these. These two have yellow flowers, and these two have purple-pink flowers. They say they are some kind of Christmas chrysanthemum. These two have white flowers. They say they are some kind of peony among chrysanthemums."
Wen Wuyan finally pointed to a single chrysanthemum and said, "This one is the boss's favorite. He said he found it in Jiangnan. The flower is very special. The inside is green like jade, and the outside is snow-white. I was lucky enough to take a look. It is really beautiful and stunning. I have never seen such a beautiful chrysanthemum. I thought Qingqing would like it, so I shamelessly asked for one."
Based on Wen Wuyan's description, different flowers appeared in Gu Qingqing's mind. When she thought about her own garden full of flowers at this time next year, she became very excited.
There was a hint of coquettishness in her joyful voice. "You understand me the best. You know that I love to deal in flowers and plants, so you found these specially for me. The boss is also very good. He actually gave you so much at one time." Gu Qingqing sighed.
Wen Wuyan smiled awkwardly at the side and didn't intend to say anything, but Gu Qingqing still noticed something unusual on his expression.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and said uncertainly, "Are you hiding something from me?"
Wen Wuyan was stared at by Qingqing and couldn't speak clearly. "That's not the case. I just gave him two bars of soap and got these in return."
Every time Wen Wuyan went to the county to study, Gu Qingqing would bring him two bars of soap and some shampoo, but she never expected that these were actually gifts from him.
Seeing that he was nervous, Gu Qingqing immediately waved her hand nonchalantly, "I thought it was something else. I really like the flowers you brought back."
Wen Wuyan was very pleased to see that she liked him. He was about to say something when he suddenly saw Qingqing looking at him with bright eyes. "Wen Wuyan, what should I do if I like you too much?"
"All..." Wen Wuyan wanted to say, "We are an old married couple, how come I don't know your preferences?" But before he could finish his words, he immediately felt something flowing out of his nostrils.
Then he saw Qingqing's eyes widened even more, and she looked at him in surprise, then she chuckled, raised her finger and pointed at herself and said, "Wen Wuyan, you have a nosebleed. Hahahaha, you, you, have a nosebleed."
After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she handed him her handkerchief and laughed loudly. She didn't want to laugh, but she couldn't help wanting to laugh because she knew what was going on.
Wen Wuyan hurriedly blocked his nostrils with a handkerchief, looked at Qingqing who was laughing happily, and called her with a doting and weak smile in his eyes.
I followed the man to the yard to fetch water to wash my face.
forecourt.
Yang Xing listened to the laughter coming from the inner courtyard and chatted with Wen Shengxi, "Look, your sister is in a much better mood after your brother-in-law came back."
Wen Shengxi turned his head and looked towards the inner courtyard. "That's right. My brother-in-law has to study and can't come back often. My sister is pregnant and it's not convenient for her to go to the county to find my brother-in-law. We can only be separated like this. It's better for you and Brother Feng. You will never be separated no matter where you go."
Seeing the little girl looking at her with envy, Yang Xing couldn't help but tease her, "When you find someone to marry in the future, you will definitely be a clingy person."
Wen Shengxi was embarrassed by what she said, and blushed and retorted, "I have already told my sister that I will not get married in the future."
"Not getting married? If you don't get married, you will be an old maid in my family. This is not okay. If you haven't reached marriage age yet, I would like to marry you off right now." Gu Qingqing, who had laughed enough in the inner courtyard, came out and happened to hear Shengxi saying this. She teased her with a smile on her face.
"Sister, I don't want to get married." Wen Shengxi argued.
"Hey, what girl doesn't want to get married? Why don't you want to get married? Are you afraid that your future man will treat you badly? Don't worry, your sister is our boss, so we are your family. If anyone dares to bully you, come back to us and we will help you vent your anger." As Zhao Bei's voice fell, he also entered the yard.
As if he was worried that what he had just said was not enough, he deliberately made left and right hook gestures to show how powerful he was.
When Gu Qingqing saw Zhao Bei come in, she quietly glanced at the little girl, suppressed her smile and said nothing, just wanting to see what the little girl would say.
As soon as the little girl saw Zhao Bei, she was like a kitten with its fur standing up. She immediately retorted, "I don't want you to be my family. My family only has my sister. Humph, you're still blaming me. You're already such a grown-up, why don't you get married?"
"I am asking for one. Who says I am not? It's just that I haven't found one yet. Sister-in-law, when will you find a matchmaker for me? I will be nineteen during the Chinese New Year." Zhao Bei answered Wen Shengxi's words first. It seemed that with her reminder, he remembered his plan to find a wife and turned to ask Gu Qingqing.
It was as if Gu Qingqing owed him a wife.
