He had only ever transferred Gu Shuhe's job, but he had never actually investigated her family background.

He really didn't care about social status; all he cared about was how he felt.

As long as the person is his type, that's fine.

As for family background, he never thought of making a fortune through women, so he wouldn't investigate someone's family background and family members thoroughly before things were even settled.

Shen Tingci then thought of the hats, shoes, and other items he had given Gu Shuhe before. They were clearly brand new, but he would slightly wrinkle them and give them to Gu Shuhe, saying that they were old items that his sister had worn and used. Gu Shuhe actually believed him.

To put it bluntly, they haven't suffered any hardship materially.

That's why she truly believed that some people would simply discard their clothes or shoes if they had even a slight crease.

Lin Liansheng carried all the things Shen Tingci had given him last time, his hands full. Then, not seeing anyone in the main room, Lin Liansheng looked at the things in his hands and said helplessly, "Dad, the cloth you used to wrap things is tied a bit too tightly."

"He's gone?"

Gu Juyuan shook his head. "No, he went to the outhouse."

"That's fine, that's fine."

"That thing..."

"When he comes back, put them all in his car."

"it is good!"

The father-in-law and son-in-law were both carrying things, waiting for Shen Tingci to return.

But Shen Tingci didn't mention leaving at all after he returned.

Gu Juyuan accompanied him while drinking tea, and they drank it rather quickly.

Later, Gu Juyuan went to the restroom. At the door, he said to his eldest son-in-law, "It seems to me that he wants to have lunch at our house."

Lin Liansheng nodded. "Shall we prepare some dishes now?"

Gu Juyuan thought for a moment and said, "Then kill a chicken first!"

"I'll go buy some tofu later."

"Aren't you going to buy some meat?" Lin Liansheng asked.

Gu Juyuan shook his head. "No, we're not buying. Things haven't even settled yet. We can't make it seem like we're rushing to buy."

Lin Liansheng nodded.

Gu Juyuan went to the backyard to use the toilet, Lin Liansheng went to catch chickens, and only Lin Jingshen was watching over people in the main room.

Shen Tingci got up, and Lin Jingshen also got up.

Lin Jingshen asked, "Are you leaving?"

"Why don't you have lunch here?" He even knew to keep people here.

Shen Tingci glanced outside the door; Gu Juyuan and his son-in-law were no longer in the front yard.

Shen Tingci rarely raised the corners of his lips. "No, I have something to do. Let's talk next time."

Lin Jingshen said, "Then I'll take you."

"Stay!"

"Please tell Uncle that I have something to do and I'll be leaving now." Shen Tingci said as she stepped out of the main room.

When Gu Juyuan came out, he saw him opening the gate to the small courtyard!

“Hey hey…” Gu Juyuan immediately said “Hey hey…”

Shen Tingci stood with one foot outside the courtyard and the other inside. He turned around and said, "Uncle, I'm sorry to have bothered you today. I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

Seeing that Gu Juyuan was about to walk this way, Shen Tingci said, "Uncle, please wait."

After saying that, he stepped out of the courtyard with his other foot and then closed the gate behind him.

Gu Juyuan chased after her, then opened the door again, only to find that Shen Tingci had already gotten into the car and driven away.

Lin Jingshen also came over at this time and peeked out.

Seeing Shen Tingci leave in a car, he peeked out and asked, "Why does he still have a car?"

"Even our town mayor doesn't have a car, does he?"

"Unless he's the county magistrate!" Lin Jingshen said with a hint of pride.

See, he could guess something like this, right?

Gu Juyuan “…”

Frustrated by his son's lack of progress, Gu Juyuan stomped his foot in frustration.

Lin Liansheng also caught a chicken from the backyard and came over, only to find that no one was in the main room.

Looking again, I saw my father-in-law and son standing at the gate. I picked up the chicken and went over. "Are they gone?"

Gu Juyuan looked at his grandson again and stomped his foot in anger.

Lin Jingshen replied frankly, "Yes, he said he had something to do and left first."

Lin Liansheng then asked, "Did he take his things with him?"

"Something, what?"

“He left empty-handed,” Lin Jingshen said. Although he was not very cunning, he had a good memory.

Lin Liansheng stomped his foot and said, "Your grandfather told him to take the things with him, didn't you hear him?"

"You didn't say you absolutely had to take it with you, so I thought it was just you being polite," Lin Jingshen had a good memory, so he remembered all the fake politeness he had ever seen since he was a child.

Lin Liansheng "..."

Lin Lian threw the chicken in his hand and angrily yelled, "Get the hell out of here!"

"Cluck cluck cluck~" As soon as the chicken was thrown, it flapped its wings and flew towards the alley in the backyard with a clucking sound.

Gu Juyuan carried the things back to his room, saying casually, "Never mind, he'll come back again, I'll let him take them next time."

The old man put the items together again, covered them with a cloth, and tied them up with a rope to ensure that they wouldn't be dirty or filthy when he returned them to their owner.

After Shen Tingci returned from the Gu family, she still went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. Gu Shuhe got up and said, "Is it still just a pack of cigarettes?"

Shen Tingci shook his head and weighed out some candy!

What kind do you want?

"Fruit hard candy will do."

"Two jin?"

"One pound is enough."

While Gu Shuhe was weighing the candy, Shen Tingci asked, "Do you prefer fruit hard candy or milk candy?"

Gu Shuhe shook her head. "I don't like sweets!"

Shen Tingci said nothing more.

After weighing the sugar, Gu Shuhe asked, "Would you like another pack of cigarettes?"

Even the usually composed young master Shen awkwardly said, "No, I've given it up."

He remembered clearly what Gu Shuhe's nephew said: none of the men in their family smoked.

So Shen Tingci felt embarrassed to take it.

I'm afraid Gu Shuhe won't like it.

After all, people who can't stand the smell of smoke really can't stand it.

It's simply a matter of how strong or weak the flavor is.

So he bought some fruit hard candies to quit smoking.

He said he had quit, and Gu Shuhe looked at him with surprise for a moment, then asked with concern, "Did the doctor tell you to quit smoking?"

Shen Tingci "..."

"No, I went to your house the day before yesterday. Your nephew said that no one in your family smokes."

Gu Shuhe nodded, "That's right, cigarettes are so expensive, how could my family afford to smoke them?"

Gu Shuhe answered sincerely, but Shen Tingci heard a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

So Shen Tingci reached out and took the candy, then grabbed some more and held it out to Gu Shuhe, saying, "Have some candy!"

Gu Shuhe glanced at them and took a few. "I'll just take a few, thank you!"

Shen Tingci also peeled one and put it in her mouth, "I'm leaving!"

"Mmm!" Gu Shuhe continued to sit down and stare blankly.

When no one is buying anything, she mostly just sits and stares blankly.

But she didn't feel bored because she was making money.

When Gu Shuhe is really bored, she likes to draw in her notebook.

She drew chickens, dogs, cats, flowers, trees, and grass on it, and then made these animals and plants talk.

Then I watched it and laughed out loud.

In Shanghai, Zhong Meixian is now laughing and joking every day.

He hums a tune no matter what he does.

She even specially cut new cloth and made diapers in front of Gu Jinfeng.

Gu Jinfeng initially thought she was making small clothes, but looking at the fabric she cut, she didn't think it was for, so she asked, "What are you making this by cutting it like this?"

"Making diapers!" Zhong Meixian said, glancing deliberately at Gu Jinfeng as if seeking revenge for what happened before.

Gu Jinfeng, being carefree, hadn't even remembered what happened before. Instead, she felt sorry for the new cloth, saying, "Mom, you're using new cloth to make diapers?"
