Gu Chenglan quickly comforted: "Auntie, although I look thin, I haven't lost any weight at all, and I've gained two pounds. It's just that I have become more muscular. I have all the work of carrying water and digging vegetable cellars. Go ahead and make sure it’s quick and good.”
Mother Su couldn't help being happy when she heard this: "We have running water at home, how can we carry water? We are not allowed to dig the vegetable cellars. A few days ago, they said there was going to be a flood, so the neighbors filled up the vegetable cellars."
"Then when our house is being renovated, I can move bricks and transport sand. I'll do whatever it takes." Gu Chenglan always had a sweet mouth, and even his cousin became happy after saying a few words.
The whole family eats around the table, and the atmosphere is warm and warm. Even the parting atmosphere that Su Yang was about to leave home to study has eased.
After dinner, it was still early, so Gu Chenglan made an appointment with Su Yang to go to his house for a chat without calling Su Nuo.
Sunuo accompanied her mother and helped her brother organize things again. She knows that boys have things to say to each other, and she also hopes that her brother and Gu Chenglan will get closer.
Gu Chenglan asked Su Yang to sit down while he went to make two cups of coffee.
Su Yang was still not used to drinking this foreign stuff. Even after adding two pieces of sugar, it felt bitter and he frowned while drinking.
Gu Chenglan took out another can of coffee beans from the drawer and said, "I've heard of the tutor in your department, a returnee from overseas. These coffee beans are quite good. If you find a chance to give them to him, he will be taken care of."
Su Yang knew that Gu Chenglan knew more about these sects than he did. Beihua is the capital city, and the water is not as deep as usual.
He was not as lucky as Su Nuo and met the best mentor in advance, so he was right to listen to some advice from Gu Chenglan.
Gu Chenglan wrote two more phone calls and gave them to Su Yang, saying: "Although that guy Wang Jian is unreliable, he is very popular in the circle. If you have anything outside of school, you can call Wang Jian and he will It can be solved.”
Su Yang looked at the phone in his hand and nodded. But when I saw the name of another phone number, I was stunned and asked, "Is this a girl's phone number?"
"Yeah." Gu Chenglan smiled: "She is different from Wang Yuanyuan and Zhang Miao. She is very loyal. We don't think of her as a girl in our circle. She is currently studying at Beihua University, one grade above you. You don't need to ask. I know she is a proper school beauty."
Su Yang understood that Gu Chenglan had arranged well for him. Whether inside or outside the school, there are people taking care of you.
Beihua is not comparable to a small city like them. If you accidentally hit someone while walking, it might be a young man from a certain family.
Being looked at unintentionally by others can also lead to trouble.
So Gu Chenglan left him a way out, not because he was using his status to pressure others, but because he had truly thought about it for Su Yang.
"Okay, thanks." Su Yang put away the phone number and coffee beans, and then said, "What about you? When are you leaving?"
"Maybe October." Gu Chenglan found a cigarette from somewhere and held it in his mouth, biting it up and down with his teeth, but didn't light it.
Su Yang frowned: "You've only been away for a month and you picked up cigarettes?"
"No, it's because I haven't smoked." Gu Chenglan smiled: "Actually, Xiao Nuo never asked me to quit smoking, but when I was with her, I naturally couldn't think of smoking. But as soon as I left here... annoying. "
Life in Africa is not easy. We are faced with danger and death all the time. Loneliness and loneliness follow step by step, accompanied by hunger, thirst, and even disease.
Gu Chenglan felt that she could survive it all because of her persistent longing.
