Confess to you, do you want to listen?

Chapter 74
No wonder he bought her medicine abnormally tonight. It turned out that he needed her to do something.The moment of subtle touch in Gu Shi'an's heart disappeared.Instead of going to see Chen Xiao, he ate porridge with peace of mind.

Chen Xiao quickly finished eating and went to wash up.

Gu Shi'an cleaned up the table after eating, probably because he was full and his body became lazy.Chen Xiao lived in the bedroom, so she didn't go there again, and went back to the guest room, lay down and closed her eyes.

Just as he was drowsily asleep, he felt that the bed next to him sank.Urgently, his hot palms pressed against her waist.

Chen Xiao's breathing was slightly rapid, and the breath he exhaled brushed against her face.Gu Shi'an's dazed mind flickered, and he immediately grabbed Chen Xiao's cruising hand.

Chen Xiao didn't break free, let her hold on, and stuck it to her ear, saying in a low voice, "Daughter-in-law, don't you want it at all?"

There was charm in his voice, and Gu Shian did not loosen his hand in the slightest.He said in a stiff voice, "I don't want to."

There was such a slight undetectable tremor in her voice.It's not that Chen Xiao has never been violent. With his previous personality, Gu Shi'an thought that he would definitely use rough methods.

Who knew but didn't, his hand loosened.

Gu Shi'an rolled into a corner like a cat with a frown.

Chen Xiao didn't take it seriously, and got up and got out of bed.Gu Shi'an originally thought he was going to leave, but who knew he didn't, got out of bed, put his hand on the bed again, leaned forward, curled the corners of his mouth evilly, and said, "Daughter-in-law, it's not good for your body to be idle for such a long time. Good. Call me if you want, I don't mind the past."

He said Shi Shiran got up and left.He didn't forget to close the door for Gu Shi'an when he went out.

With the sound of closing the door, Gu Shian's tense body slowly relaxed.He closed his eyes and lay back on the bed.

She didn't know whether it was because of the alcohol or the effect of the medicine. She originally thought that she would not be able to fall asleep after going through this, but she fell asleep in a daze after a while.It was dawn when I opened my eyes again.

The pain in the head has long since disappeared, but there is still some groggyness.

It's a rare vacation, and she would definitely sleep more in normal times.But today she had to go to the old house, so she didn't dare to sleep much, and quickly got up to wash up.

There was no sign of Chen Xiao in the living room, probably because he hadn't gotten up yet.

After Gu Shi'an finished washing, he came out of the bedroom lazily.He was not surprised to see Gu Shi'an getting up, and went to wash himself.

When he came back from washing, Gu Shi'an had already tidied up, so she asked Chen Xiao, "Shall we go now?"

Chen Xiao glanced at her.

Gu Shi'an had no choice but to say: "I want to go to the mall." Today is the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, and she probably won't come out before the Chinese New Year. She plans to prepare some New Year's gifts.

Chen Ying should have guessed what she was thinking, and said, "I've got everyone ready for what needs to be prepared, so just go back."

He moved very quickly, and he was already ready.

Gu Shi'an didn't say anything now.

Before going out, Chen Xiao called Ye Qing and said he was going back to have breakfast in the morning.The two went downstairs, and Chen Xiao's driver was already waiting downstairs.Seeing him, he stepped forward and called Mr. Chen.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that the driver was here to take them back to the old house, but it wasn't.He quickly took out many things from the car next to Chen Xiao and put them into Chen Xiao's car.

Chen Xiao prepared quite a lot of things, and he took them several times in a row before he finished them.After waiting for the trunk to be closed, he signaled Gu Shian to get in the car.Then tell her which ones are for the old lady.

It is estimated that only the old lady's things were arranged by him, and the others were bought by the people below.He didn't know what it was, so he asked Gu Shi'an to watch the arrangement.

After talking about the gift, he suddenly glanced at Gu Shi'an and asked, "Is the headache all right?"

I don't know what kind of mentality he had to ask this question.Gu Shi'an replied that it's all right.

When the two of them passed by, the breakfast had already been set, and because of the New Year's Day, new lanterns had been hung under the eaves of the old house.It should have been cleaned everywhere, and there are no fallen leaves in the courtyard.

The old lady was happy when the two went back. Seeing Chen Xiao carrying the big and small bags, she reprimanded: "Why do you buy these things, I have them at home."

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "This is my honor to you. It is different from your own."

The old lady laughed when she heard this, and called the two of them to have breakfast.

Chen Xiao had to go to work, so he left after breakfast.Gu Shi'an followed Ye Qing to help in the kitchen.It's almost Chinese New Year, and Qi Shiyun should be at home, but he didn't see her at breakfast.

Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "Aunt Ye, mother-in-law, hasn't she come back yet?"

Ye Qing sighed now, looked in the direction of the old lady in the living room, and said, "No, I guess I won't be back for Chinese New Year."

Gu Shi'an was stunned for a moment.

Ye Qing then said in a low voice: "Ah Ying should have told her that she was coming back for the Chinese New Year. She called back at noon yesterday, saying that if there was there, she would not be there. Luckily, I answered the call. If the old lady picks it up, she will be sad again."

Ye Qing sighed softly when he said this.Qi Shiyun's temper has grown a lot over the years.Saying this is threatening the old lady.

Gu Shi'an was silent for a while, hesitated for a while, and asked again: "Then... are you coming over there to celebrate the New Year?"

"I don't know about that, A Xiao made the preparations for the New Year's Eve dinner." Ye Qing replied.

Gu Shi'an nodded at this moment, since Chen Xiao asked to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, then most likely he will come back.

It's just that she doesn't know where Qi Shiyun will go to celebrate the New Year if she doesn't come back.Maybe it's going back to Qi's house, but it's not very appropriate after all.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that Chen Zhengkang's family would come over for a New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve, but it wasn't.On the afternoon of the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, she and Ye Qing were studying the menu for the New Year's Eve dinner in the kitchen when they heard the sound of a car outside.

At first they thought it was Chen Xiao coming back, but when they heard Chen Zhengkang's voice outside, they knew it was them.

When they came, they naturally had to go out.Ye Qing probably didn't expect them to come here today, exchanged glances with Gu Shi'an, and then went out together.

Chen Zhengkang was quite willing this time, he took out many things from the car in large and small bags.

Seeing Gu Shi'an and Ye Qing going out, he continued to carry things without raising his eyelids.

This was the first time that Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiao met He Shuqing after they got married. She was somewhat embarrassed and called Shi'an.

Chen Xun was much calmer than He Shuqing, and smiled and called: "Sister-in-law." His appearance followed He Shuqing's, and he was not like Chen Xiao.Wearing a pair of glasses, he is very polite.

Gu Shi'an stepped forward, said hello one by one, and then went to help carry things.He Shuqing didn't let her do it, and said with a smile: "No, just let Chen Xun take it."

Before her words fell, Chen Zhengkang said coldly: "How many hands does Chen Xun have?"

He Shuqing was even more embarrassed this time, Gu Shi'an smiled and said it was all right, and picked up a few other bags.

Chen Zhengkang was cold-hearted towards Gu Shi'an, and when he entered the door and saw the old lady, he turned into a smile all over his face.One mouthful and one mother screaming non-stop.He Shuqing and Chen Xun were asked to call for someone.

This was the first time that He Shuqing had entered the Chen family's old house in so many years. There was no resentment on her face, and she stepped forward and called mom gently.

The old lady closed her eyes and said nothing, and finally ordered Ye Qing, "Serve tea."

That's the tacit consent they stayed.

Chen Zhengkang immediately stepped forward, with a smile on his face, and said: "Mom, look at this, this is specially brought back from abroad by Shuqing's friend, and it is said that it is very good for the body. And this is Xun I went to several shopping malls to buy it."

The old lady's face didn't change in any way, she said lightly: "Please worry about it."

Chen Zhengkang was eager to show his filial piety to the old lady, and immediately took out another massager, saying that this thing was also imported, and asked Chen Xun to come forward and teach the old lady how to use it.

With a smile on his face all the time, Chen Xun stepped forward and took out the instruction manual, and began to explain it.

Compared with Chen Zhengkang's urgency, he was not in a hurry.As if he and the old lady are descendants of ordinary people.

They came to cook early, Gu Shi'an took the snacks he had prepared earlier, and went back to the kitchen with Ye Qing.

The mother and son spoke very little, and only Chen Zhengkang's voice could be heard in the living room.

Ye Qing shook his head, sighed lowly.

The two took out the ingredients, and footsteps came from the kitchen door.Gu Shi'an raised his head, and saw He Shuqing walking to the door.

Ye Qing naturally also saw her, and said politely: "What are you looking for?"

He Shuqing was somewhat embarrassed, and said, "No, I'm fine sitting down, so I'm here to help you."

Ye Qing probably didn't expect her to come to help, he was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "No, you rest."

He Shuqing had already entered the kitchen, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay, I also make these at home. I haven't been filial to the old lady for so many years, so I should let the old lady try my skills."

She said that Ye Qing couldn't find anything to say.She wants to cook for the old lady, so of course she can't stop her.Just said a few words to tell her to be careful.

He Shuqing thanked her, and then exchanged pleasantries with Gu Shi'an.In a soft voice, he asked Mrs. Gu Shi'an what she usually likes to eat.

Gu Shi'an smiled and answered one by one.

He Shuqing spoke softly, and always had a gentle smile on her face.She didn't talk much, and after asking the old lady what she likes to eat, she exchanged pleasantries with Gu Shi'an.Talk about unusual topics.

Her cooking skills are good, originally she was just helping out, but in the end Gu Shi'an became her helper.

Gu Shi'an didn't see her many times. Chen Zhengkang would come to make trouble from time to time over the years, but she never came.

Almost every time Gu Shian saw her, she was calm and decent.Even if Qi Shiyun yelled some ugly words.

When Chen Xiao came back later, he was not surprised to see this family.The expression on his face was faint.

Chen Zhengkang had always been courteous in front of the old lady, but when he saw Chen Xiao came back, he restrained himself a little.When Chen Xun saw Chen Xiao and Gu Shi'an, he called brother.

He Shuqing was embarrassed, but she followed Chen Zhengkang and called Ah Xiao.

Chen Xiao is polite and unfamiliar.

Chen Zhengkang didn't make any fuss, and his meal was unprecedentedly harmonious.The old lady didn't see anything on her face, she went back to her room directly after eating with the excuse of being tired.

The room was arranged earlier, probably because she didn't want to see Chen Xiao, the old lady went back to the room and Chen Zhengkang called He Shuqing and Chen Xun to go upstairs together.

Chen Xiao was worried about the old lady, so he poured a glass of water and went into the old lady's room.

The old lady was probably really tired, and he came out after a while.Gu Shi'an stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Is grandma asleep?"

Chen Xiao nodded.Glancing upstairs, he took out a cigarette to light it, and then asked Gu Shi'an: "Didn't you make any trouble today?"

Gu Shi'an nodded and said, "No."

Chen Xiao didn't speak anymore.

The two of them were about to go upstairs in the evening, when He Shuqing walked down the stairs.Seeing the two of them, an uncomfortable smile appeared on his face.She glanced at Chen Xiao, handed him the paper bag in her hand, and said, "I didn't come here even though you married Shi'an, although it's a bit late... This is a wedding gift from Auntie."

Chen Xiao didn't have any expression on his face, and he didn't pick up the bag either.

He Shuqing's face was a little uneasy, and when he was about to take it back, Chen Xiao took it over, and said in a flat manner that you are welcome.

He Shuqing was relieved when he accepted the things.She smiled gently and said, "Then I'll go up first, you and Shi'an go to bed early."

She said and went upstairs.

Chen Xiao threw the bag to Gu Shi'an, and went upstairs after a while.

The box was handed to Gu Shi'an, but Gu Shi'an didn't open it, and put it on the small table when he entered the room.Chen Xiao lazily sat down on the sofa, raised his chin, and said, "Open it and see what you got."

There was some sarcasm in his tone.

Without saying a word, Gu Shi'an took out the small box from the paper bag.Inside was a jade bracelet, apparently given to her.

Chen Xiao took the bracelet, looked at it in his hand, snorted, and said, "It's a waste of money."

Judging from his tone, the jade bracelet should be quite expensive, but he didn't care at all, and threw it back into the box with a slight crisp sound.

It was hard to see how he was feeling, after throwing the bracelet back into the box, he got up and went to take a shower.

Obviously there are so many people living in the old house tonight, it should be lively.But for some reason, Gu Shi'an felt extremely deserted.

The guest room that Ye Qing arranged for Chen Zhengkang's family is at the other end of the corridor, most of them are already asleep, there is no sound at all.

It was probably because something was going on in her head. She lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. After an unknown period of time, she slowly fell asleep.

She woke up early the next day, and just as she went downstairs, she saw Qi Shiyun walking in from the outside.With an indifferent expression on her face, she asked coldly before Gu Shi'an could speak: "Are they back?"

Her voice was harsh in the empty living room.In the kitchen, Ye Qing walked out quickly, fearing that she would make a fuss, forced a smile and said, "Ma'am, you are back."

Qi Shiyun sneered now, and said, "It's hard for you to remember me as my wife."

The old lady hadn't woken up at this time, Gu Shi'an was afraid of making a scene, so he hurried back to call Chen Xiao.

When Chen Xiao heard that Qi Shiyun came back at this time, he immediately frowned, and said, "Go and watch over there, and tell them not to go downstairs."

His movements were very fast, and he got up immediately.

The two of them had just arrived at the stairs when Qi Shiyun walked up and said with a sneer, "Okay, everyone will pretend that I don't exist, right?"

Her face was full of anger, and her voice was loud.Chen Xiao grabbed her and said, "Grandma is still sleeping, I'll go out and talk with you."

"What are you talking about? You scoundrel, now even you are teaming up with them to bully me, right?" She said, tears fell.

Chen Xiao half pushed her and half coaxed her out.

As long as she didn't sleep so loudly, she should have heard it all.But Chen Zhengkang didn't come out to quarrel with her like before.

Gu Shi'an was worried about the old lady, so he went downstairs and opened the door of the old lady, seeing that the old lady was still awake, and then gently closed the door again.

With Qi Shiyun's temper, Chen Xiao might not be able to persuade her.Gu Shi'an was worried and kept looking outside.

I don't know how Chen Xiao persuaded him, but he and Qi Shiyun came in after a while.There were no tears on Qi Shiyun's face, and she was not as excited as before, almost expressionless.

Chen Xiao also had no expression on his face, and he didn't know what the two of them were talking about outside.

Gu Shi'an didn't ask, and poured a cup of hot tea for Qi Shiyun.

Qi Shiyun glanced at her coldly, but took the tea instead.

She had just come back from outside, had tea and went upstairs to change.After going downstairs, he went straight to the door of the kitchen, and said to Gu Shi'an, "I have something to tell you when I come out."

She didn't go back to the living room, but walked to the corner of the corridor.Then she said lightly: "From now on, remember to lock the door of the bedroom and Chen Xiao's study at all times." A slight sarcasm appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she continued: "What good do you think will happen when the weasel pays the chicken a New Year greeting?" ?”

She didn't know whether she was referring to Chen Zhengkang or the mother and son.After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Gu Shi'an, turned around and left.

I don't know whether it's true or not that Qi Shiyun came back or it's fake. When He Shuqing went downstairs and saw Qi Shiyun sitting on the sofa, she was stunned for a moment, and then a forced smile appeared on her face, and she called: "Sister! You're back."

Qi Shiyun didn't raise her eyelids, and said with sarcasm on her face, "Sister? Your ability to make yourself look good has improved a lot over the years."

Being blocked by her, He Shuqing's face turned red and white.Tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked at Chen Zhengkang who was going downstairs behind her in a bewildered manner.

The blue veins on Chen Zhengkang's forehead were throbbing violently. After all, he was still concerned about the old lady, pointing at Qi Shiyun's nose and scolding: "Don't give me shame, what kind of thing are you?"

The sarcasm on Qi Shiyun's face was even stronger, and she said, "What am I? I am your wife, Chen Zhengkang Mingmei, who is marrying!"

Chen Zhengkang probably didn't expect her to bring up the word 'wife', probably because he was afraid of He Shuqing's grievance, and immediately said: "What kind of daughter-in-law of the Chen family are you? You haven't been here all these years, how could the old lady not let us return?"

He became angry after speaking.

Indeed, if Qi Shiyun hadn't been there, maybe he would have returned with his wife and belt.There is no need to work hard outside, staying for so many years.

Qi Shiyun was not angry at all, she sneered, and was about to speak when the old lady came out of the room.

She swallowed back all the words she was about to say.

Only Chen Zhengkang's family had a weird atmosphere here, and when Qi Shiyun came back, the weird atmosphere was even worse.I don't know what Chen Xiao said to her, she hardly spoke.It can be regarded as peace for a while.

Compared to Chen Xiao, Chen Xun is much gentler.Even when Qi Shiyun came back, she always had a gentle smile on her face.

Call Aunt Qi Shiyun, see that there is no tea in her teacup, pour tea for her.Even if Qi Shiyun had a cold face, he didn't care, he still had a gentle and gentle look.

Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, and Ye Qing's New Year's Eve dinner list is missing some ingredients.After breakfast, Gu Shi'an told the old lady that she would go to the supermarket.

As soon as she said that, Chen Xun stood up and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, I'll see you off. Staying at home is just staying at home. I can help you carry some things in the past."

Gu Shi'an smiled slightly and said, "No, I can go by myself, there are not many things."

Chen Xun picked up his coat and said, "Don't be polite to me, there must be a lot of people in the supermarket today. It's not convenient for you to go alone."

Gu Shi'an didn't expect him to be so persistent, just about to refuse again, He Shuqing smiled and said: "Shi'an, let him go with you. He can help a little."

Gu Shi'an had no choice but to agree.

Chen Xun didn't drive the car in the old house either, he still drove the car they drove over.When he got to the front of the car, he opened the car door for Gu Shi'an in a gentlemanly manner, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, be careful not to touch your head."

Gu Shian politely said thank you now.

He smiled and said sister-in-law, you are too polite.

Gu Shi'an didn't see him very many times, and the most time he saw him was when he followed Chen Zhengkang, preventing Chen Zhengkang from making a scene with shame on his face.

She couldn't find any topic, so she didn't speak for a while.

Chen Xun didn't speak, and waited for the car to drive out of the old house, and then suddenly said: "Sister-in-law, don't you really look down on me?"

There was so much bitterness on his face, and that gentle smile was also a little bit forced.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect him to ask that question, he was slightly taken aback, and was about to speak when Chen Xun continued, "Actually, sometimes I look down on myself. You should hate me and my mother, after all ..."

When he said this, the smile on his face became even more bitter, and he paused.
