The next day, Li Hehua sent Shulin to the school on time, and Gu Zhijin personally picked him up at the door.
Li Hehua carried the small bookcase on Shulin's shoulders, and the small one was almost completely covered by the bulging bookcase. Although the bookcase had no weight, it looked like a clumsy one from the back. The little snail looks cute and pitiful.
Gu Zhijin took the bookcase over.
Li Hehua brought lunch to Shulin, and filled a basket full of food. There was white rice for two people, a large bowl of braised rabbit meat and a large bowl of mushrooms and vegetables. These are the two that Li Hehua gave to Shulin and Gu Jinzhao. The lunch prepared by the child, and at the same time, she also prepared desserts for the two little guys, two snacks for each person, and a bowl of assorted fruits, which is very rich.
The basket was full, and it was very heavy to carry. The child would definitely not be able to carry it. Li Hehua had to trouble Gu Zhijin, "Master Gu, this is the lunch I prepared for Shulin. It is quite heavy, so the child can take it. If you don’t get up, please take it, Master.” The school stipulates that parents are not allowed to enter, they can only send their children to the door, and the children need to bring the things they bring, but other children can, only Shulin, too small Now, the distance between the arm and the ground is not as high as the basket.
Gu Zhijin stretched out his hand to take the basket. As soon as he started it, the weight was really heavy. He couldn't help but ask with a smile, "How much delicious food have you made for Shulin? It's so heavy, how much can a child eat?"
Li Hehua explained with a smile: "There are two children's food here, and Jin Zhao's share. I heard that he likes to eat what I make, and yesterday I promised him that he would bring him delicious food in the future. , that's why it's so heavy."
Hearing this, Gu Zhijin felt embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Boss, this is too much trouble, that kid is just a glutton, so I can't get used to him, I'll just bring it to Shulin in the future."
Li Hehua waved his hand, "It's not troublesome, just do more things by the way, and it's not delicious for Shulin to eat alone, children only eat deliciously when they eat together, so Master, don't be polite, be polite. I'm also polite, Shulin will have to trouble you to take care of it in the future."
Gu Zhijin still felt embarrassed, but he wasn't the kind of quick-spoken person. He really couldn't do it if he told Li Hehua to resign, plus his nephew was very picky, if he could eat what the boss made Lunch is definitely delicious. Take yesterday's incident as an example, the boss brought the basket of food, and his nephew killed most of it last night, and he couldn't bear to stop eating until he hiccupped. He had never seen Jin Zhao eat so deliciously before.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhijin finally accepted it, thinking that he would be more attentive to Shulin in the future. When another nephew hurts, it can be regarded as a repayment to the boss.
After talking to Li Hehua, Gu Zhijin was about to bring Shulin into the school, and was about to hold his hand, but Shulin suddenly jumped on Li Hehua, hugged her thigh, and rubbed her face like a coquettish little girl. The cat obviously doesn't want to go in alone.
Li Hehua smiled apologetically at Gu Zhijin, took the coquettish little guy into his arms, kissed his cheek, and coaxed softly: "Shulin, have you forgotten what my mother told you? You are here to learn from the master. If you paint, you will have to paint every day and take it home to show your mother. If you don’t go in, you won’t be able to paint for your mother, so you have to be obedient, and my mother will come to pick you up when you get off school, okay? "
Now Shulin is like a child who goes to kindergarten. He clearly agreed at home, but when he sees his parents leaving, he still can't help but make a scene. It's just that Shulin doesn't cry, just hugs her. Her neck rubbed reluctantly, and under her light coaxing, she finally followed Gu Zhijin in obediently, but looking back at three steps almost made Li Hehua's tears fall, Li Hehua looked at the little figure reluctantly, Don't turn around until you can't see it.
On the first day Shulin went to school, Li Hehua was absent-minded when he was doing business. He was always worried about the little guy. The little guy didn't talk and didn't care about others. Is there any problem with communicating with him
The little guy who was worried at the moment was sitting obediently in his seat, but his roommate was gone.
Gu Zhijin arranged Shulin to sit next to Gu Jinzhao and asked Gu Jinzhao to take good care of him.
As soon as Gu Jinzhao saw the younger brother he received yesterday, he felt that he should have the demeanor of a big brother as a big brother, so he patted his chest and assured, "Second uncle, don't worry, I am a dignified man, how can I break my promise?"
Gu Zhijin tapped his forehead, "Then you have to do what you say, if you don't, I won't punish you!"
After Gu Zhijin left, Gu Jinzhao "swiped" and turned his eyes to the younger brother beside him. Seeing him sitting motionless with his head lowered, he thought he was afraid, so he patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, "Don't be afraid. , I'm here, if someone bullies you, report my name!"
After speaking, seeing that his younger brother didn't show gratitude to him and called him brother like in the book, he scratched his head in doubt.
Is it because his younger brother doesn't know how famous his name is
Gu Jinzhao felt that he had to tell his younger brother his name well, so that his younger brother knew how powerful he was, so he stretched out Shulin's head to his side and let him look at him, only to find that the His face was squeezed into a bun, so cute, he couldn't help but squeeze again.
Shulin's face was squeezed, unable to move or in a hurry, just quietly looking at the face in front of him without speaking.
Gu Jinzhao said: "Let me tell you, I'm very good, no one dares to provoke me in the school, as long as someone dares to bully you, you will
When you say that you are my brother, the person who bullies you will not dare immediately, so don't be afraid, the elder brother will definitely take care of you, as long as you will obey me obediently in the future. "
Shulin's mouth was squeezed into a bun's mouth by Gu Jinzhao, only his eyes could move, so he had to blink.
Gu Jinzhao also blinked his eyes, feeling that his little brother was really too timid, he didn't even dare to say a word. If he was bullied by others, he probably wouldn't dare to sue. Hey, isn't the little brother he accepted too cowardly~
It seemed that he had to find a way to make him bolder.
Just when Gu Jinzhao was thinking about how to make his younger brother more courageous, his second uncle's cool words were like thunder, "Gu Jinzhao, what are you doing! Go out and think about it!"
Gu Jinzhao was so frightened that he let go of his hands and let Shulin's face return to normal.
"Second uncle, I'm just taking care of him, I didn't bully him." Gu Jinzhao quickly put his palm to his ear as an oath.
It's a pity that Gu Zhijin didn't take his set. He only saw Shulin's little face being squeezed into a bun by his own demon king.
Gu Jinzhao sighed, patted Shulin on the shoulder, walked out of the classroom with a heroic expression of sacrifice, and obediently thought about the past. It was time to eat on this side of the wall, and the energetic little bully was starving and listless.
"Second uncle, you are so cruel~" Gu Jinzhao was extremely resentful.
Gu Zhijin was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he took Shulin to the backyard for dinner. Shulin is too young, he is worried about having dinner with other children in the dining hall, and now Shulin is also his close disciple, similar to his own children. He plans to take him back to the backyard to eat and rest in the future. He had already asked Aunt Liu to warm it up.
As a result, Gu Jinzhao became more resentful and followed silently, thinking that he was not the nephew of the second uncle? Then he is really a miserable man with a rough life... . . .
Gu Zhijin hugged Shulin and sat on the chair, seeing his own demon king crouching on the ground and drawing circles, a smile flashed from his eyes, ignoring him, and only said to Aunt Liu, "Aunt Liu, go to Shulin. The food is brought, and there are delicious dishes made by Shulin Niang."
Aunt Liu said "hey" and turned to go to the kitchen.
Some guy on the ground had his ears pricked up.
The smile in Gu Zhijin's eyes was even greater, and he sighed faintly: "Hey, Mother Shulin originally brought two copies, and she wanted someone to eat it with Shulin, but now it seems that the portion can be saved, after all, someone has If you don't want to go to the table to eat, then let Shu Lin finish it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the hand that was drawing circles on the ground stopped, and he stood up neatly and walked to the table, saying as he walked, "Oh, I just dropped something on the ground, and I finally picked it up, okay, now it's okay. time to eat."
Gu Zhijin covered his mouth with his hand and coughed lightly.
When the food was served, Gu Jinzhao's eyes lit up with a "swipe". He picked up chopsticks unceremoniously, picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it into his mouth. The moment he entered the mouth, his eyes narrowed in intoxication, extremely happy.
"It's delicious, Shulin, your mother's craftsmanship is really good." Gu Jinzhao praised Shulin sincerely, and at the same time did not forget to put a piece of rabbit meat for Shulin, "Come on, you're welcome, eat more. "
Gu Zhijin read Shulin before moving his chopsticks, his nephew had already eaten three pieces of meat, and hurriedly said to Shulin: "Shulin, Master feed you, will you?" I can't stop my nephew from putting down chopsticks.
Shulin didn't respond to Gu Zhijin's words. After a while, he picked up the spoon Li Hehua prepared for him and scooped a spoonful of rice into his mouth. Although his movements were clumsy but very steady.
Gu Zhijin saw that Shulin knew how to eat, so he didn't want to feed him, but only ordered food for him from time to time.
After eating the meal made by Li Hehua, Gu Jinzhao felt that this younger brother, Shulin, must be recognized. After the meal, he took the initiative to pull Shulin to his own room to take a nap. You know, even Gu Zhijin can't go to his room to sleep at ordinary times. It can be seen that Gu Jinzhao recognizes the younger brother Shulin.
It was also from this time that the two became good brothers. Even if they grow up and are busy in their own fields, they are still the best brothers, and they will never change.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... .
After worrying for a whole day, Li Hehua waited outside the school before the end of school, and Zhang Tieshan came with him.
Li Hehua didn't know when Zhang Tieshan came, anyway, as soon as she came out of the house, she saw him standing at the entrance of the alley.
Li Hehua looked at him suspiciously.
Zhang Tieshan took the initiative to say, "On the first day Shulin went to school, I'll come and see him."
Li Hehua understood, "That's fine, come and see with me, Shulin is about to finish school." In fact, she was quite embarrassed. Originally, Shulin should have lived with Zhang Tieshan, but now he lives with her, but Zhang Tieshan instead She became the person who had to travel thousands of miles to town to see the child. If Zhang Tieshan had not agreed with Shulin to come and live with her, she would not have been with Shulin every day, so Li Hehua was grateful to him.
Zhang Tieshan didn't say anything, silently followed Li Hehua to the academy, and waited outside the academy with Li Hehua when he arrived at the entrance of the academy.
When the school was over, Zhang Tieshan saw his son threw himself into Li Hehua's arms like a whirlwind, rubbing and rubbing in Li Hehua's arms, his father was as transparent as he was.
Zhang Tieshan felt a little melancholy in his heart.
Li Hehua hugged the little guy in his arms, only to feel that his heart was finally let go, and he kissed him fiercely, and then he was able to talk to Gu Zhijin, "Master Gu, is Shulin good today? I didn't let you worry less, right? "
Gu Zhijin smiled lightly and said, "No, Shulin is very good, and he is very careful when writing and drawing, so I don't need to worry about it at all." After speaking, Gu Zhijin handed the large characters and paintings that Shulin wrote today to Li Hehua and Zhang Tieshan Look, "This is the calligraphy and painting written by Shulin today. It's very good, and it will be extraordinary in time."
Li Hehua took over the painting and calligraphy and watched it together with Zhang Tieshan in surprise.
The writing is the simplest one, two, three. Although it is simple, you can already see the feeling of regular script. It is not simply drawing horizontal lines. The drawing is even more incredible. Although simple, the picture is vivid. The lines on it are still immature, but it looks much better than the previous painting. At first glance, Gu Zhijin has directed it.
Li Hehua was really happy and proud, and couldn't help kissing the little guy again, "Shulin, you are really amazing!"
The little guy lifted his head from Li Hehua's neck and looked at her with blinking eyes, so cute.
After talking with Gu Zhijin about Shulin in the school for a while, Li Hehua went back with Shulin in his arms. Zhang Tieshan still followed silently, holding Shulin's small bookcase and basket in his hand.
Inexplicably, Li Hehua sympathized with Zhang Tieshan. Why did she feel that his father was a little out of existence? The baby in my arms has not cared about his father until now, his father's heart is about to break...
Li Hehua embarrassedly hugged Shulin and returned home, thinking that Zhang Tieshan hadn't said a word to Shulin until now, he tried to invite him: "Zhang Tieshan, would you like to come in and sit and play with Shulin for a while? I'll make some dinner."
Zhang Tieshan paused, nodded, and took Shulin out of Li Hehua's arms, "Go ahead, I'll take him for a while."
Li Hehua nodded, turned and walked towards the kitchen. In the kitchen, Sister Xie was preparing the ingredients for tomorrow. She would have to wait for the preparation to finish before making dinner, but now that Zhang Tieshan is here, he will rush back to the village later. Let him have dinner here, who made him so good to allow Shulin to live here.
In order to speed up, Li Hehua made a big pot of gnocchi with chicken soup, and used the biggest bowl in the family to fill a full bowl of gnocchi to the main room, and let Zhang Tieshan eat with the little guy, while she and Sister Xie ate in the kitchen.
Sister-in-law Xie ate the gnocchi in the bowl, looked up at Li Hehua, and lowered her head as she wanted to say something.
Seeing her hesitant to say anything, Li Hehua said, "Xie sister-in-law, what do you want to say? If you have anything to say, just say it."
Sister-in-law Xie looked at the main room, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Actually, I shouldn't have said this, but I know you are a good woman. Never mind."
Li Hehua smiled, "It's okay, sister-in-law, just say it."
Sister-in-law Xie leaned a little closer and said softly, "I've seen the person in front many times. Didn't he get separated from you? Why does he still come to the door like this? It's not good for you. How do you get married?"
Sister Xie asked who Zhang Tieshan was before, but Li Hehua didn't hide it, but only said that it was Shulin's father, and they divorced.
Li Hehua knows that people in this era are very conservative, and it is especially criticized for single women to get along with men. If one is not good, people can make irresponsible remarks. Sister Xie said it today, and it is estimated that someone nearby is already muttering.
But Li Hehua doesn't care about reputation as much as people in this era. As long as she sits upright, she can't take care of other people's opinions. This business can't be done. If people want to talk about you, they can always find an excuse.
Besides, Li Hehua never thought about marrying again. How good is the second marriage in this era? If she is not going to be a cow or a horse for others, or being a stepmother to others, then why should she find fault for herself? It's not that she can't afford to support herself, and it's better to live comfortably by herself when married.
Li Hehua knew that Sister Xie couldn't understand his own thoughts, so he said: "Sister-in-law, thank you for your reminder, you are right, but because he is Shulin's biological father, he is willing to let Shulin live with me. Thanks to him, now that he wants to see Shulin and get along with Shulin, I can't help but let people see him? Then who am I, do you think it's my sister-in-law?"
Sister-in-law Xie is also a sensible person. After thinking about what Li Hehua said was reasonable, she said, "Sister, you are right, so Shulin's father is a good person. At least I have never seen a divorced couple who could be taken away by a woman. What about the child. But girl, how can you remarry after so long? You can't help but take it seriously. Let me tell you, this man must inquire about your reputation nearby before marrying you. At that time, in case..."
Li Hehua patted Mrs. Xie's hand, "sister-in-law, you're right to worry, but I didn't think about remarrying, sister-in-law, look, what else can this woman marry again? How many women have you seen who remarried happily? ?"
Sister-in-law Xie choked, because women couldn't find anything good in their second marriage, and they were generally not taken seriously.
But how could this woman not marry
Seeing what sister-in-law Xie wanted to say, Li Hehua stopped her from talking, "Okay, sister-in-law, don't worry about me, don't you think I can make money now, isn't it a good life? Besides, who can I do now? Look at me, you won't even have any introductions to me, so you think too much, sister-in-law."
Li Hehua originally wanted to let sister-in-law Xie not worry about the major events of her life through self-destruction, but she did not expect to be slapped in the face the next day.
The next day, she was introduced.
