The little village girl dressed as a disaster star led the whole village astray
Chapter 241 Don’t let the wealth go to outsiders
"Forget it." Mrs. Feng stopped and turned back. "The girl has come to him on her own initiative. If he still can't get her, then he is really stupid.
If he can't get my daughter-in-law back, then I will adopt that girl Axi as my goddaughter."
Anyway, she must be a good mother.
Gu Jingzhi was walking in the sunshine when he suddenly felt a chill coming from behind him. He frowned slightly, wondering why he felt a chill on his back.
Gu Jingzhi didn't know that his mother was secretly trying to steal his girl.
Gu Jingzhi took Li Xi to his study.
Gu Jingzhi's study was pretty much the same as Li Xi had imagined. Behind the desk was a wall of bookshelves, and on the side were museum shelves, on which elegant bottles, jars, bowls, and dishes were neatly arranged.
Li Xi didn't need to look closely to know that the items displayed on it were all old objects and antiques.
Li Xi walked over and looked around.
Seeing that she was interested, Gu Jingzhi followed her and hugged her from behind, "Do you like it?"
Li Xi carefully put the lotus-patterned twisted wire disk back on the shelf. "I can't say I like it. I don't really understand it."
Li Xi has always been a person who likes to speak her mind. If she doesn't understand something, she won't do anything. This thing is a priceless treasure in the hands of people who understand it. In her eyes, it can be described in two words - beautiful.
"You are not a refined person and cannot appreciate their beauty. You should keep them." Li Xi heard what Gu Jingzhi was trying to say.
The reason she didn't want these things this time was not because they were expensive. After making up her mind, Li Xi no longer cared about these things. She just didn't want them to be covered in dust in her hands. It would be a waste of resources in her hands.
"What's so elegant about it? If you like, you can serve rice or vegetables."
Li Xi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Forget it. I'm afraid it will shorten my life."
Li Xi turned around in his arms, facing Gu Jingzhi, looking down from his forehead, carefully examining his face.
Gu Jingzhi has always been a steady person, but he still felt a little uncomfortable with her straightforward gaze.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jingzhi frowned, "Is there something wrong?"
Li Xi didn't say anything, retracted her gaze, and nodded secretly in her heart. She thought that her vision was still good. This face alone was attractive enough.
"Nothing, I just think you're pretty handsome."
Gu Jingzhi: What?
Li Xi didn't expect that she subconsciously said what was in her heart.
Gu Jingzhi had already reacted, and with a faint smile he embraced Li Xi in his arms, "Did you just discover this today?"
In the past, what Gu Jingzhi hated most was other people talking about his appearance. Although he never showed anything wrong on his face and still had that gentle and smiling look, every time he heard someone discussing his appearance, there would always be a little more coldness in his eyes.
He doesn't like his overly outstanding appearance because people always ignore his true self and focus on his face.
But at this moment he was very satisfied with his appearance because that was what she liked.
He knew it without her saying it, because the obsession and admiration in her eyes were too obvious.
This wasn't the first time he had seen this look in her eyes, and every time he saw it, he was glad that his appearance matched Axi's aesthetic.
Li Xi was speechless: ...
He is also narcissistic.
"Come with me somewhere in a few days." Li Xi suddenly said.
"Okay." Gu Jingzhi agreed immediately.
Li Xi raised her head from his arms and looked at him, "You didn't even ask me where I was going?"
"I'll go with you wherever you go."
Li Xi was struck by a knowing touch, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. It must be said that his love words were quite blushing.
Li Xi withdrew from his arms and sat on the desk, "I plan to go back to Lijia Village."
She had originally wanted to use Lijia Village as her future development base. She glanced at Gu Jingzhi, but because of his appearance, she changed her plan.
But before she left, the layout for Lijia Village had already been implemented, but a lot of things happened afterwards and she didn't have time to control it personally.
She had originally planned to go back before the herbs were ripe for picking, but missed the trip because of her trip to the capital. Before leaving, she asked Gu Jingzhi to find someone to help her go back to Lijia Village to deal with the herbs.
The person sent by Gu Jingzhi was very capable, and things went more smoothly than she had imagined. Before she came back, the man had already bought up all the herbs grown by the villagers, and then sold them at a higher price.
As for who it was sold to, it was naturally sold to the Zhenbei Army.
After all, as the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family.
Ever since Li Xi took out those prescriptions, the Zhenbei Army's various medicinal powders and pills have been in short supply. However, the herbs from Jiayuguan have long been insufficient. The herbs grown in Lijia Village and brought to Jiayuguan are just a drop in the bucket for the Zhenbei Army.
Li Xi has already received the money from selling medicinal herbs. This time, she plans to go back to Lijia Village. Mainly because she remembers Uncle Changqing's help in the past, she wants to go back and help them. It is too difficult for farmers who work in the fields to earn extra money.
She was grateful for his help and knew that he was a village chief who really wanted to do something for the villagers, so she didn't mind lending him a helping hand.
“Do you have time recently?
If you don’t have time, I can go back by myself.”
"I have time. There's nothing going on in the army recently. I'm still recovering from my injuries, so I have plenty of time to spend with you." Gu Jingzhi said with a smile, "I'm afraid I won't have time after a while."
Judging from the time, the reply from Beijing will be here soon.
Before that, he had free time.
Li Xi felt Gu Jingzhi's pulse. After all, he was young and strong, and his body had a good recovery ability. In just three days, his body had almost recovered.
Gu Jingzhi retracted his wrist and adjusted his sleeves, "I have been following the doctor's advice these days."
Li Xi also withdrew his hand and nodded, "It's recovering well."
"My body knows itself. It's getting better now. I'll pick you up tomorrow."
He was not sure when the reply from the capital would come, and he hoped to accompany Li Xi before that.
Li Xi, who had already taken the patient's pulse, did not refuse, "Okay."
After saying this, Li Xi did not leave immediately. She and Gu Jingzhi sat in the study room for a long time, each with a book. When it was almost time for dinner, Li Xi said goodbye.
Gu Jingzhi carried the lunch box and sent her to the door, but after sending her to the door, Gu Jingzhi did not give the lunch box to her. Instead, he carried the lunch box and went back to the next door with her.
They haven't eaten together for several days.
Gu Jingzhi didn't say he wanted to go, but he kept walking. Li Xi naturally knew what he was thinking, but she didn't refuse. She felt uncomfortable without him at the dinner table these few days, but she didn't want to say it.
