Chapter 484: 484 being protective of his wife to the point of ignoring all his relatives

Gu Yingzhou had long known that the young girl was full of fantastic ideas, and there were plenty of good things at home.

With a face used to the finer things, he sipped the fruit juice with an indifferent expression.

Making Su Qi and his son look as unsophisticated as the village dogs.

Su Qi: "..."

Who’s really from Provincial City here, damn!

After entertaining several people, Lin Tang went back to her room and took out two new Chapters of the manuscript that Su Qi had been eagerly anticipating, and had temporarily forgotten due to his diverted attention.

When Su Qi saw the things in her hand, his attention immediately snapped back on track.

He quickly stood up and took the thick manuscript from her.

Without another word, he sat down to read.

Before long, he became deeply engrossed.

It was clear from his range of expressions—now excited, now frowning, now angry...

Gu Yingzhou noticed that his brother-in-law was monopolizing all the manuscripts; even if he wanted to sneak a peek at one, there was no chance.

He gave up.

Standing up, he asked Lin Tang in a low voice, "Tangtang, is there any work to do at home?"

Although Su Zheng was mischievous, he rarely caused a fuss while his father was working.

Hearing his little uncle’s question, he curiously looked at Lin Tang, also wanting to join in the fun and help.

His mother had said that it wasn’t easy for his little uncle to find a partner; he needed to be good and help his little uncle make a good impression.

Whether his little uncle could find a wife was of great importance to him.

Lin Tang was unaware of the uncle and nephew’s thoughts; she had the strength to do the work at home easily, so it rarely piled up.

Seeing that Gu Yingzhou really had nothing to do, she looked around and fetched a hemp rope from the kitchen.

"You could help me tie the clothesline," she said.

The previous one seemed to have broken due to wear and tear, and she hadn’t had time to tie a new one.

Gu Yingzhou responded with a nod and immediately took the rope.

He was familiar with the courtyard and knew exactly where to tie it.

It was done in no time.

After finishing, he saw that the firewood had not been fully chopped and there were still splinters on each piece.

He picked up the axe and started chopping firewood.

The elegant young master chopping wood with an axe, his skinny waist flexing to reveal a sexy outline of muscle was not an ordinary impressive sight.

Lin Tang covered her face, "If you have nothing to do, I can find you a book to read, why don’t you take a break?"

Gu Yingzhou shook his head, "No need," he said while continuing his work without a pause.

Lin Tang felt extremely helpless.

A man with such discernment who can spot work needed doing is exactly what rural mothers-in-law would love in a son-in-law.

If only her mother had been there, her approval rating would have soared again.

Luckily, there wasn’t much firewood in the courtyard, and it didn’t take long for Gu Yingzhou to finish chopping.

At the corner of the courtyard, bundles of uniformly sized firewood were neatly stacked, which would have greatly satisfied anyone with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

After washing his hands and face, Gu Yingzhou sat down and asked, "Tangtang, do you need a metal stove? If you want one, I can get it for you."

The stove could burn coal, making cooking and boiling water less troublesome than using firewood.

Lin Tang shook her head, "No need, burning firewood is quite convenient. Didn’t you see last time, there is a boy who comes to bring me firewood every few days. As for the stove, we can talk about it when it gets colder."

She had no plans to get one for herself, but it might be a good addition for the village.

Especially in winter, a stove would make washing up more convenient.

Gu Yingzhou remembered the skinny boy who delivered firewood, covered in rags and patches, looking like he could collapse at any moment.

He suspected that Tangtang was reluctant to change to a stove to provide the boy with a stable source of income.

He felt a complicated sentiment in his heart.

"Alright, just let me know when you want to switch, I’ll help you get it," he said.

Lin Tang was unaware that Gu Yingzhou was once again thinking too highly of her.

She simply thought that burning firewood was convenient and there was no need to switch.

As for helping the boy out, that was just coincidental.

She regularly needed firewood, and the boy provided labor in exchange—it was a simple matter.

Hearing that Gu Yingzhou was taking the initiative to handle the stove matter, Lin Tang readily agreed.

"Okay then, I’ll let you know if I need it."

Gu Yingzhou liked the way the young girl was straightforward, making him feel very useful.

He took the opportunity to suggest, "You should always be like this."

Lin Tang couldn’t help but smile and shake her head.

Turning around, she handed him a blueprint.

"I really do have something for you to help with, take a look first."

Gu Yingzhou hadn’t expected the opportunity to come so suddenly.

He took the blueprint somewhat blankly.

After glancing at it, the clear mechanical diagram on the blueprint was immediately recognizable to someone familiar with machinery.

"Is this a threshing machine?"

Lin Tang inwardly praised him, appreciating his expertise.

"Yes, the village is gathering corn right now, and I saw how tired my father and others were with manual threshing. I thought about getting a threshing machine. What do you think, can you do it?"

Gu Yingzhou’s eyes swept over the parts listed on the blueprint, his mind rapidly going through the machinery at the factory.

"It’s possible, but the main shaft and key components need to be made separately," he said.

The machine on Tangtang’s blueprint was a brand-new one; it couldn’t simply be assembled as is.

Without waiting for Lin Tang to respond, Gu Yingzhou lightly rubbed the young girl’s soft hair, saying with assurance, "Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it."

The missing parts weren’t few, but with many classmates and comrades, it wasn’t a big problem.

After taking Lin Tang to heart, he had decided long ago to do his utmost for the young girl.

As long as she wanted it, and as long as he had it, he could give her anything.

Over time, this thought became even more firm.

"Well then," she was about to say thank you for the trouble.

Before Lin Tang could finish her sentence, Su Qi, who was sitting nearby reading the manuscript, suddenly slapped his thigh.

’Pia’—a sound cut through the air,

startling Lin Tang.

Gu Yingzhou gently patted the young girl’s shoulder, comforting her like a child.

His eyes turned towards Su Qi, with a trace of mild dissatisfaction, "Qi Ge, you scared Tangtang."

Su Qi was totally taken aback.

And then he burst out laughing.

True to the men of the Gu Family, they’re fiercely protective of their wives!

"I’m really sorry about that," he said with a poker face.

Hehehe.

Lin Tang tugged on Gu Yingzhou’s hand, with a soft and apologetic tone, "I’m fine, don’t be so nervous about it."

Then, worrying that Su Qi would be upset, she swiftly offered an olive branch, "I’m sorry, Comrade Su."

Su Qi waved his hand, looking unbothered.

"It’s none of your fault, Comrade Lin, don’t worry about it."

Did he not know what his brother-in-law was like?! Even in front of his partner, Yingzhou was actually already very conscious about his image.

Seeing that Su Qi didn’t mind, Lin Tang was relieved and turned her attention back to the manuscript in his hand.

"How is the manuscript, does it meet the publishing requirements?"

Whether it did or not, Su Qi’s expression had already said it all.

As expected, he nodded resolutely.

His eyes shone, and his face bore an indescribable emotional mix.

"Certainly, this manuscript is excellent!"

The detail was exquisite, the story touching; children could understand it, and adults could immerse themselves in it.

It was of very high quality!

Seeing the admiration his brother-in-law had for those pages, Gu Yingzhou curiously took them into his hands and began to read.

Lin Tang chuckled modestly, "Comrade Su, you flatter me."

Su Qi shook his head, "No, it really is good, and if Comrade Lin has submitted it, it clearly shows an intention to publish."
