Chapter 324: What does the model of ’wives sing and husbands follow’ look like?
Lin Tang looked toward Su Zheng, only to see the child standing as straight as a little white poplar in the corner of the wall.
Tears and snot were falling, but she dared not reach out to wipe them away.
From time to time, she glanced at Su Qi, her face full of grievance.
This scene was clearly one of being scolded.
"Not bad, Su Zheng is quite well-behaved," Lin Tang spoke impartially.
That was the truth.
She didn’t know what Su Zheng was like at home, but the few days she stayed at her place, he had been quite well-behaved.
Gu Yingzhou had never heard anyone speak of his nephew as well-behaved, so he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Gu Ren shook her head in disbelief and said:
"Tangtang, you don’t have to speak well of him on his behalf.
We know what that boy is like; you’ve had a hard few days."
The child was picky with his food and ate a lot, just like a little piglet.
If he hadn’t lost weight, it must have been due to Tangtang’s diligent care.
After speaking, she fell silent for a moment, feeling she was being a bit too forward.
"Um, is it alright if I call you Tangtang? I am Yingzhou’s cousin, Gu Ren. You can call me Sister Ren."
Lin Tang was used to being called ’Tangtang’ and didn’t feel anything was amiss.
She nodded and introduced herself, "That’s fine. My name is Lin Tang, and I am Gu Yingzhou’s partner."
Gu Ren’s impression of Lin Tang improved as she seemed so straightforward.
She asked the question she had wanted to ask since they first met.
"...Tangtang, how old are you this year?"
Gu Yingzhou saw his cousin come right out and ask such an embarrassing question.
His hand holding the teacup paused.
He appeared somewhat... uneasy.
Lin Tang: "My birthday is in December; in a few months, I’ll be seventeen."
Fearing Gu Ren might reproach Gu Yingzhou for robbing the cradle or for interacting with a minor,
she subtly added an explanation.
"I’ve been in a relationship with Comrade Gu for over two months now; both sides considered it seriously before deciding to be together."
As she said this, Lin Tang seemed to pout dissatisfiedly.
"After meeting Comrade Gu a few times, I was sure about him, but he was like a log, making me ask him three times before he agreed to be my partner..."
I was sure about him!!!
I was sure about him!!!
These words, as if enchanted, echoed in his ears.
Gu Yingzhou’s ears suddenly grew hot.
His cool ink-black eyes turned to the little girl beside him, melting like ice and snow revealing a profusion of flowers.
Was the little girl trying to sweeten him to death?!
Hearing this, Gu Ren noticed something amiss in Gu Yingzhou’s gaze.
A female comrade taking the initiative in a relationship?!
Worthy of being her brother indeed!
This was an opportunity to tease Gu Yingzhou, a rare find for the family.
She would surely spread the word when she got back.
Gu Ren looked at Lin Tang with a hint of faint sympathy in her eyes.
"...You’ve really had it tough."
Tangtang was right, Gu Yingzhou really was as stiff as a log.
With the little girl Lin Tang’s bright teeth and sparkling eyes, her peach-cheeked, apricot-faced beauty,
what man would reject her? And to reject her three times?!
He must be out of his mind...
Lin Tang didn’t expect Gu Ren to completely miss the point of focus, and she naturally shifted her attention as well.
"It’s alright!"
Although her boyfriend was often busy with matters at the Machinery Factory, and sometimes they couldn’t see each other for several days,
she wasn’t clingy.
When Gu Yingzhou was busy, she could always find things to occupy her time.
However, Gu Ren felt that Lin Tang was just being polite and felt even more sympathetic toward the young girl.
She took off the thoroughly white bracelet from her wrist and slipped it onto Lin Tang’s wrist.
"This is our first meeting, and we didn’t prepare a gift in advance. Please accept this bracelet, and don’t disdain it."
If they had known earlier that her brother had a partner, they would have prepared a gift in advance for their meeting.
It now seemed impolite.
The bracelet was translucent and warm white.
Its texture was crystal clear and sparkling.
Anyone who saw it knew it was made of top-quality jade.
Lin Tang hurriedly took it off and returned it.
"Gu Ren, I appreciate your kindness, but this is your favorite bracelet, isn’t it? A gentleman doesn’t covet what others enjoy, so I can’t accept it."
Concerned Gu Ren might overthink, she blinked, her voice soft.
"If you really feel bad about it, you can make it up to me later.
Today, you came here to pick up Su Zheng; it has nothing to do with meeting the parents."
With one sentence, she gave Gu Ren a way out and returned her treasured item.
How could it not be a beloved item if it was worn outside on one’s wrist?
Gu Ren’s bracelet must have cost at least a thousand dollars.
It’s hard for the average person to refuse.
Gu Yingzhou knew long ago that his little girl was not superficial.
Now, seeing Lin Tang didn’t even let her eyes linger before returning the bracelet.
The fondness in his eyes grew softer.
How could such a considerate little girl not capture one’s heart?
Gu Yingzhou looked at Gu Ren and said, "Since you like it, you keep it, and make it up to her next time."
His little girl certainly wouldn’t want a gift that wasn’t prepared with the heart.
Gu Ren: "..." You two aren’t even married yet; what’s with this act of a wife supporting her husband?
After Su Qi finished disciplining his son, he returned to see his wife’s expression weird.
"What’s wrong?"
Noticing Lin Tang’s curious glance, Gu Ren showed an appropriately measured smile.
"Nothing, how’s your son? Did he admit his mistake?"
While speaking, she glanced involuntarily towards Su Zheng, standing in the corner at attention.
The child’s eyes were red, his nose twitching intermittently.
And he kept sneaking peeks this way.
Su Qi saw his son’s small expressions and couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Feeling that his earlier punishment had been too light.
"He probably admitted it; it’s fine, we will continue the lesson when we get back."
The man looked gentle, as soft as jade, yet his words were in total contradiction to his face.
Gu Ren shifted her gaze away from her son.
Completely lacking a mother’s consciousness, she said:
"Alright, just be mindful of the limits, or mom and dad will hold you accountable."
By mom and dad, she meant both sides of the family.
As Su Qi and Gu Ren spoke, Lin Tang looked towards Su Zheng, clicking her tongue inwardly.
At such a young age, he dared to run away from home; discipline was indeed needed.
Or else he might reoffend!
Gu Yingzhou followed her gaze briefly before looking away.
"Tangtang, where did you find Su Zheng?" he asked.
He called her Tangtang so naturally.
As if... he had already called her that hundreds of times in his heart.
The man’s voice was deep and resonant.
When he uttered the name ’Tangtang,’ his tone carried an entwined tenderness.
Entangling and utterly bewitching.
Lin Tang’s ears heated up.
She pinched her palm, trying not to fall into Gu Yingzhou’s baritone trap.
She cleared her throat lightly, "I came across him on the way back to the county."
Thinking of Mu Sheng, Lin Tang fell silent for a moment.
Then she told the truth.
"At that time, Su Zheng was being pulled by someone from the next brigade..." she paused for a moment, "who doesn’t have a very good reputation."
"Well, let’s say, that person... has a reputation of a man-eater, and everyone tends to avoid him."
"I was unsure of his intentions with Su Zheng; when it’s convenient, you might want to have someone keep an eye on him for a while."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ren’s expression changed drastically, and she asked with great seriousness, "A man-eater?! Is that true?"
