After Breaking Off the Engagement, She Went To the Countryside and Was Pinched By a Rough Man and Pa

Chapter 293 Mitigation

Xia Zhi has simply tidied up the house. Now there is no furniture and nothing can be purchased.

However, she found someone to build an earthen kang in the room next door so that she could receive guests when someone came.

Xia Zhi didn't realize that she still included Gu Zixi in her subconscious mind.

 Considering that my brother returned home late from making up lessons for me, he might be able to rest in the room next door for a night.

 Subconsciously, she didn't even notice it herself.

As a result, when I was cleaning up the house, I heard someone knocking on the door outside the courtyard. I hurriedly ran out, but saw two expected and unexpected people outside the door.

“Brother, I said I’d clean it up before inviting you over, but I didn’t expect you to touch it yourself.”

Now it is very natural for Xia Zhi to call Gu Zixi brother. Since he already knows that there were many misunderstandings in his previous life, why should he insist on being serious with himself in this life?

 Hurting one's own family members to benefit others.

  In short, she could feel from Gu Zixi that the Gu family was not as cold and heartless as she imagined.

 This is also the reason why she accepted Gu Zixi.

This shout was so natural that Gu Zhaolin, who was standing behind Gu Zixi, had mixed feelings after hearing it.

 As expected, the eldest brother's relationship with Xia Zhi was even more natural than that with Gu Han.

Gu Zixi walked in carrying a new thermos bottle in his hand.

“No matter what, you are moving to a new home.

Even though brother hasn’t received his salary yet, I have to give you something. "

Gu Zhaolin looked at his empty hands and felt ashamed instantly.

“Brother, it really doesn’t have to be like this, why are we so polite?

 According to this, you are still my teacher, then don’t I still have to pay you a salary? "

Xia Zhi smiled and greeted Gu Zixi to come in.

 “Brother, come in and take a look at this house.”

Gu Zhaolin looked at the two people and walked in with a smile.

He hurriedly turned around and ran back to the dormitory, and started to rummage through the boxes. He remembered that when he came, his mother was worried that he would suffer here alone, so she specially brought him the only blanket in the house.

The blanket is useless for me to put on. There is really no need for a blanket when sleeping on the earthen kang.

 At any rate, this is my intention. I really can’t buy anything now.

 Finally took out the blanket from the box.

Gu Zhaolin breathed a sigh of relief.

Hold the blanket in his arms, turned around and ran out.

Xia Zhi took Gu Zixi to visit the room and found that the room was empty.

 Fortunately, the bedding in the main room where my sister sleeps has been laid.

 “This house is just missing some furniture.”

“Brother, I have contacted the carpenter for the furniture, but it will only take a few months.

 Let’s make do with it now anyway!

By the way, brother, I just happened to move the kitchen stuff over, and all the pots and pans are there.

 I cook, and we can be considered a Nuannuan family. "

 Gu Zixi was a little excited after hearing this. The relationship between him and Xia Zhi has made rapid progress thanks to this training trip.

“Okay, then I’ll go to the chicken farm and ask, and I should be able to get a chicken. Let’s improve our lives.”

Xia Zhi laughed after hearing this.

 “Brother, where can you go to the chicken farm?”

 “I’m afraid the little face you have is not enough.”

At this moment, Gu Zhaolin rushed in panting.

He ran so fast that he knocked open the door panels of the courtyard door.

Gu Zhaolin rushed to Xia Zhi and stuffed the blanket into Xia Zhi's hands.

 “I’m going to buy chicken.”

 During this period of time at the chicken farm, he was more or less integrated into the collective. At least it had improved. It was not like before, and no good things happened to him.

Gu Zhaolin turned around and ran away again as if he was running away.

Xia Zhi touched the blanket in his arms and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. "This is…"

"Xia Zhi, I know I have no right to make any decision for you. Gu Zhaolin is not a bad person."

Gu Zixi actually hopes that her sister and brother can reconcile.

Xia Zhi curled her lips and said seriously that after two lifetimes together, she really didn't like Gu Zhaolin in her mind.

Both of them naturally avoided this topic.

Gu Zhaolin quickly brought back a live chicken, killed it and put it in a basin in the kitchen.

 The eldest brother is washing vegetables there.

Gu Zhaolin rubbed his hands in embarrassment, not knowing what else to do.

 Xia Zhi has opened the iron pot and poured oil into it.

 When I turned around, I saw Gu Zhaolin.

The moment the two people's eyes met, Gu Zhaolin immediately turned his head away with a guilty conscience.

 “Help me light the fire.”

Gu Zixi paused with her cutting knife, raised her head and saw this scene, and said hurriedly.

“Second brother, go and help light the fire for Xia Zhi. What are you doing there? You didn’t notice that I was busy.”

 The sound of chopping vegetables is getting louder and louder.

Gu Zhaolin hurriedly took a step forward and squatted down next to the stove, slightly embarrassed, right next to Xia Zhi.

While adding firewood, I was thinking about what to do?

Should I say something to Xia Zhi, or should I just say nothing?

 The eldest brother is right. He is an older brother. Do you want to keep in a cold war with your sister for the rest of your life without talking?

Xia Zhi has not offended her. I honestly said that I misunderstood Xia Zhi.

They family-minded people are wrong if they are wrong, and there is no man who would not admit his mistake.

 “The fire is too small.”

"sorry!"

 The two voices collided.

Xia Zhi looked down at Gu Zhaolin. After Gu Zhaolin said this, he raised his head in despair.

Looking directly at Xia Zhi, this time he met Xia Zhi's gaze, and he did not dodge.

  Instead, he said it seriously.

"Xia Zhi, I know you are wronged. I have wronged you.

 I am not worthy to be your second brother.

 I am sorry to you because of my previous misunderstanding, not to force you to recognize me. "

Xia Zhi's expression did not change. She looked at Gu Zhaolin in front of her carefully and saw Gu Zhaolin's embarrassed look.

Probably understood that Gu Zhaolin may have never been so bowed to anyone in his life.

 “I want to stir-fry the chicken nuggets, and the heat will be higher.”

 After saying this calmly, and continuing to work on what he was doing, Gu Zhaolin lowered his head in some depression and started to blow the bellows.

 He knew that Xia Zhi had not forgiven him.

With a sizzling sound, the chicken nuggets exploded with oil in the pot and became extremely delicious.

Gu Zhaolin couldn't help but sniff, remembering that he lived nearby during those days.

Gao Yanbin eats and drinks spicy food every day, but apart from smelling it, he can't do anything and has to pretend not to be affected.

 Is Xia Zhi's craftsmanship so good?

 An hour later, the food was placed directly in the kitchen, simply placed on the stove.

Mainly because there is no furniture now, so the three of them are squatting in the kitchen, and they even sit on the doorstep.

 One person held a bowl.

When Gu Zhaolin took his first bite of chicken, he fully understood why Gao Yanbin was so angry that he insisted on pestering Xia Zhi.

Apart from anything else, Xia Zhi was a master of cooking, which he had never encountered before, even if his family had good living conditions before and he often went to restaurants in Shangjing.

I have never had such a good meal.

 It looks like an ordinary home-cooked dish, but it always has a different taste in your mouth.
