Gu Chenglan was afraid that Sunuo would be uncomfortable, so she specifically told her family that there was no need to prepare dinner for the two of them.
He and Sunuo had a big meal outside, walked hand in hand for a while, and then slowly and leisurely went to Gu's house.
In the Gu family hall, Gu Shan is now the center of attention. As soon as I sit there with a big belly, my husband will surround me and my mother will pamper me.
When Su Nuo and Gu Chenglan came in, they saw the servants serving fruits.
There is a large fruit plate on the table, and each person has a small fork in his hand to fork which piece he wants to eat.
Gu Shan herself was holding a big crystal bag, which was full of fruits she liked to eat, mixed with yogurt, and ate it "chilly".
"Hey, second sister, you're just looking after your own business, don't you even want to lose your face?" Gu Chenglan lay on the back of the sofa, looked at the fruit in Gu Shan's big bowl and said, "Why are you the only one doing something special?"
The fork in Gu Shan's hand almost flew over. She turned to glare at Gu Chenglan and didn't bother to argue with him. Instead, she called to the servant: "Your young lady is back, please serve the fruit quickly."
The servant agreed and immediately went to the kitchen to peel another bowl of fruit and gave it to Sunuo.
Su Nuo knew that Gu Shan had no ill intentions and was just joking with him. But she was really embarrassed to eat such a big bowl of fruit.
In the end, Gu Chenglan reached out and took it for Suno, pulled Suno to sit on the sofa, forked a piece of apple and said, "Ah~, just eat it if I give it to you, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."
"That's right." Gu Shan nodded, with a piece of banana stuffed in her mouth, and said, "Xiao Nuo, you are also the key protection of our family. Regardless of whether you are pregnant or not, at least we have the resources. The crop land is not fertile. You will reap melons if you sow melons, and you will reap beans if you sow beans.”
Sunuo's face turned red when he said that. The apples he stuffed into his mouth and chewed no longer tasted good.
Mother Gu also smiled, and after the young man finished chattering, she said, "I called Xiao Nuo here today because I have a gift for her. Cheng Lan, go to the study and take down the things on the table."
Gu Chenglan agreed, put the big bowl of fruit into Su Nuo's hand, got up and went upstairs.
When he came back, Gu Chenglan handed a red lacquered wooden box to Gu's mother, and then sat down next to her mother.
Sunuo was a little nervous and didn't know what to do while holding the bowl.
"Xiao Nuo, sit here too." Mother Gu said, opening the red lacquered wooden box in her hand and taking out a pair of silver bracelets.
Sunuo quickly put down the bowl and sat down. Gu Chenglan deliberately moved the place so that Sunuo could sit next to his mother.
He sat on the other side of Sunuo and gently hugged her waist, secretly cheering her up.
Gu's mother said: "This bracelet is an old item of our Gu family. The silver one is not valuable, but it has been passed down for several generations.
This is Grandma Chenglan’s dowry. Is it something from the palace or the palace
There were no antiques in those days, just something to remember from generation to generation.
When his father and I got married, it was also a difficult time for the family. It was just a decent piece of jewelry, but its meaning was quite different.
Now I will give her to you. It doesn’t matter whether you wear it or not, but you should keep it well and give it to your daughter-in-law later. "
After Gu's mother finished speaking, she put the pair of silver bracelets and the red lacquered wooden box into Sunuo's hands. The smile on her face was gentle and loving.
The pair of silver bracelets do look very old, with classic shapes and exquisite carvings. But the inside of the pattern has been oxidized and turned black, making it look particularly simple and dark.
