"It depends on where the difference lies. Many things require careful consideration." Madam Guan said earnestly.

Miss Sun said "oh" as if she understood something.

"From the details, Lord Li, as a man, was able to help Miss Gu choose a headband and remember everything he said to her. He later chose a color that matched her clothes."

"Tell me, have you ever met a man as meticulous as this one? I'm afraid he wouldn't even be willing to go shopping for clothes, let alone pick something."

"Also, have you ever seen Lord Li smile at anyone like that? His eyes seemed to be filled with tears." Madam Guan said a series of words in succession.

Unfortunately, I ran into someone who didn’t understand and said innocently, “Why didn’t my daughter see that?”

"But the way my daughter looks at Lord Li and the teacher is somewhat similar to the way my father looks at you."

Guan Niang flicked her daughter's head and shouted, "Old Sun! Your daughter wants to get married!"

Hearing the noise, Old Sun put down the clothes in his hands and ran to his daughter without stopping. He asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why are you suddenly thinking about getting married? Isn't it better to be with your parents?"

"Dad, don't listen to what mom says. I was just curious and asked a few more questions..." Miss Sun said

When Guan Niangzi was young, she injured her body when she gave birth to a daughter, which made her unable to get pregnant again. Master Sun was also a loyal person and didn't want to take a concubine. A daughter is a daughter! A daughter is still a little cotton-padded jacket, right?

So Boss Sun was conflicted, as he was afraid that his daughter would get married and leave them, an old couple, behind.

But he was also afraid that his daughter would not get married. Just as his wife said, after they both passed away, their daughter would be left alone without a companion. How pitiful she would be!

So the couple held two different ideas. Mrs. Guan wanted her daughter to be more picky while she was still young and choose someone she liked so that she could live a happy life in the future, have a good husband's family, and let her daughter come to see the two old people.

When you get older, it is not you who picks on others, but others who pick on you. It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one.

Boss Sun is different. He thinks that his daughter will only be with him for a dozen years, so he wants to stay with her as long as possible.

After hearing his daughter's words, Boss Sun felt relieved. "That's good. You're still young and it's too early to get married. Don't rush."

"It's not too early at all. She will be coming of age in two months. Maybe a matchmaker will come to your house then..." Madam Guan raised her eyebrows.

"Mom, you are so eager for your daughter to get married! Didn't Gu Niannian find someone she liked at the age of twenty? Why can't I do the same?" Miss Sun's tone was slightly angry.

Madam Guan opened her mouth but ultimately remained silent. "She wasn't looking forward to her daughter getting married. She was afraid she'd regret it."

"Lord Li is a good man, one in a million, and Miss Gu can see that she is not bad herself. For a matter like this, the right time, place, and people are all essential."

"Madam, just go with your daughter!" Boss Sun advised.

Mrs. Guan finally just sighed and walked in.

……

After buying clothes, the two headed towards Xie’s Pharmacy.

When the two men entered the store, the pharmacist recognized Li Jing as soon as he saw him and asked, "Master Li is here? What medicine do you want to buy?"

Li Jing's eyes darted around the pharmacy, thinking, "It's a good thing he's not here!"

The medicine boy was puzzled by his actions and looked around as he did. "What are you looking at, sir? Are you looking for our boss?"

When he heard the word "Dongjia", Li Jing's eyes widened and he put his index finger between his lips, pretending to keep quiet.

Gu Niannian looked at his little movements and felt amused in her heart, but she did not show it on her face, "Help us catch..."

"Who's looking for me?" Before Gu Niannian finished speaking, a familiar voice sounded from behind the door curtain.

Li Jing's brows were visibly furrowed, as if he was about to meet the God of Plague.

Xie Feixing fanned the door curtain open, and seeing the two men ignoring Li Jingneng's frown, which was as sharp as a fly, he asked enthusiastically, "What brings Lord Li to my pharmacy?"

After saying that, he bowed slightly to Gu Niannian and said, "Miss Gu, I am honored to meet you!"

Gu Niannian returned the gift, "Thank you, Master. Can we buy some medicine for injuries and bruises, as well as some powder to repel mosquitoes, snakes and ants?"

"What are you talking about, young lady? If a pharmacy doesn't have these common medicines, then what's the point of opening a pharmacy!" Xie Feixing threw away his fan and looked like a handsome young man.

"But these things are too common. I got a good thing recently. It is very effective in dealing with mosquitoes." Xie Feixing threw out a hook.

He walked closer to Gu Niannian, who subconsciously took a step back. "Sir, just say what you mean! Men and women shouldn't touch each other."

After hearing these words, Li Jing's brows relaxed instantly and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"Miss, are you buying these to go out for a trip with Lord Li?" Xie Feixing answered the question irrelevantly.

Gu Niannian nodded without hesitation. She had no reason to hide anything from him. First, she didn't want to give Xie Feixing any hope. Second, she could see that Li Jing was uneasy about him.

Since the person has already decided, she must give him the sense of security he deserves. What a scumbag, playing two-timing is not her style.

"Where are you planning to go? I'm very familiar with the place!" Xie Feixing said with a smile, hiding the loneliness in his eyes.

"How about taking me with you?" Xie Feixing raised his eyebrows at Li Jing.

"I promise I won't let you get lost!"

"And my mosquito repellent potion is very effective! I just got it from the Western Regions. There are so many mosquitoes in this summer. Can you bear to let Miss Gu feed them?" Xie Feixing threatened and tempted.

Li Jing didn't answer, but looked at Gu Niannian and asked for his opinion with his eyes. He himself didn't want to let this plague god go, but he had to respect Gu Niannian's idea. Moreover, it was the hot summer when there were the most mosquitoes. From what this guy said, if he didn't let him go, he wouldn't give him the potion.

Although the powder is somewhat useful, it cannot prevent mosquitoes.

Gu Niannian did not reject it immediately and pretended to think about it.

Xie Feixing saw that there was a good chance, and said attentively, "Miss, sit down here and think about it slowly. I'll have them pack the medicine according to your instructions. There's no rush."

As he said this, he led Gu Niannian to the backyard. Gu Niannian glanced back at Li Jing, reached out and took his hand, and they walked in one after another.

Li Jing didn't expect to be treated this way suddenly, and his ears turned red instantly. His heart was as sweet as if he had eaten honey.

At this time, the only one feeling miserable was probably Xie Feixing. He felt really bad as a light bulb.

Seeing that they were sitting on the stone bench, he didn't let go and found an excuse to go get the medicine.

When he took out the potion and saw that the two men's hands had finally loosened, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He held up the glass bottle in his hand and said as if presenting a treasure, "Look, this is the water. Don't underestimate it, it's very useful. Apply it to the mosquito bites and the itching will stop instantly. It also feels cool and comfortable. The smell can also keep mosquitoes away."

Gu Niannian's lips curled up, "Okay!"
