Chapter 476 Gu Nan's Concerns
You know, in this day and age, communication equipment is so backward that it's a headache. If you want to send a message by writing a letter, it will take several days!
After Gu Nan arrived again, he wrote a letter to Ran Qiuye, but it probably hasn't arrived yet, so Gu Nan has been absent-minded every day.
Gu Nan still missed Ran Qiuye a little, after all, Ran Qiuye was still pregnant at that time.
At this time, Zheng Qiang slowly walked over here. He saw Gu Nan who seemed a little absent-minded and asked with concern: "Gu Nan, I see that you look uneasy. Is there something on your mind?"
Zheng Qiang is the teacher leading the team this time. There are five people in total coming abroad, and all of them are the most outstanding young people.
Gu Nan looked up at Zheng Qiang and said with a worried look on his face, "Uncle Zheng, tell me, why did you choose the time when the Chinese New Year is almost here to let us go out to study? Our family must be so worried!"
After hearing this, Zheng Qiang couldn't help but smile slightly, and he admired Gu Nan even more: "Gu Nan, this study opportunity is really rare, and it's only for half a year. Besides, even if you can't come home often, you can still write letters to communicate, right?"
Gu Nan nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with Zheng Qiang's statement, but the worry in his heart was still hard to dissipate. After all, there were not many easy-to-use people in the courtyard where he lived!
Fortunately, Gu Nan's living environment was pretty good. He lived alone in a room, and not only could he cook by himself, but he also had a special canteen to choose from. Whether it was home-cooked meals or foreign delicacies he had never tasted before, as long as he wanted to eat, he could easily satisfy his appetite.
Days passed one by one, Ran Qiuye welcomed her long-awaited vacation, and Xu Damao also finished work and returned home. As for Lou Xiaoe, for some reasons, she could only come to visit everyone during the day.
As the New Year was getting closer, even Ran Qiuye's father came to visit his daughter.
Ran Qiuye looked at her father and said, "Dad, I told my mom that I would go to your place to celebrate the New Year, but I didn't expect you to come. Why didn't you tell me?"
Ran Qiuye's father smiled and looked at Ran Qiuye: "Qiuye, that brat Gu Nan has gone out to study, and your mother is here too. If I come over again, this home will be here, okay, let's celebrate the New Year at your house this year."
Ran Qiuye was very happy to hear her father say this, so she prepared to go out to buy New Year's goods. After all, it would be a good time for the whole family to be together during the New Year.
Who knew that before Ran Qiuye went out, Heizi outside started shouting.
Ran Qiuye thought it was someone from the Siheyuan, so he went out to take a look.
Unexpectedly, the person who came was Gu Nan's apprentice Zhong Yi, and he came with a cart: "Zhong Yi, why are you here? Did your master send a letter?"
Zhong Yi nodded and took out a letter: "Master's Wife, my master did send a letter, and I am here to give it to you."
Ran Qiuye took the letter and didn't think too much about it, but Zhong Yi looked at Ran Qiuye and said, "Master's wife, my master is not at home, and the New Year is coming soon. I bought you some New Year's goods."
Ran Qiuye took the letter with some surprise, put it in his pocket, frowned and said, "Zhong Yi, what are you doing?"
Ran Qiuye didn't expect Zhong Yi to buy so many things. She felt a little embarrassed.
Zhong Yi said nothing, bent down and started to carry things into the house. He walked into the house panting and put down the pile of things he bought, including a lot of fresh meat and juicy vegetables. Then he raised his head, glanced at everyone in the house, and finally landed on Ran Qiuye, smiling and asked: "Master's wife, these two should be grandpa and grandma, right?"
Zhong Yi knew that he was able to get this job today thanks to Gu Nan, so since his master Gu Nan was not in Sijiu City at this time, he must perform well.
Although he bought these things, Zhong Yi felt that he still didn't buy enough, but he couldn't think of what to buy for the moment.
Ran Qiuye's parents were a little confused by this sudden greeting and didn't react for a while. Ran Qiuye saw this and hurriedly introduced him to her parents with a smile: "Mom and Dad, this is Zhong Yi, Gu Nan's apprentice." After hearing their daughter's explanation, the old couple suddenly realized and nodded.
Ran Qiuye thought that he couldn't let people make a wasted trip, so he took out some money from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Yi. However, Zhong Yi waved his hands and refused, refusing to take the money no matter what.
Helplessly, Ran Qiuye had to give up, turned around and poured Zhong Yi a cup of steaming hot water, and said softly: "Zhong Yi, please sit here for a while. I'm going to write a letter to your master. Please help me send it to him."
Zhong Yi nodded obediently, then found a stool and sat down quietly waiting. Ran Qiuye hurried to the desk, spread out the letter paper, picked up the pen and started writing. In the letter, she wrote in a beautiful handwriting: Dear Gu Nan, you must study hard over there! I have good news for you, my parents are coming to celebrate the New Year together this year... The words are full of care and longing for her husband.
Ran Qiuye knew that Gu Nan couldn't come back yet, but she couldn't take anything with her, so she could only write a letter. However, Ran Qiuye still had a lot to say, but she really didn't know how to write it, so she didn't write it.
After a while, Ran Qiuye finished writing the letter and carefully put it into the envelope and sealed it. She took the letter to Zhong Yi and handed it to him, and reminded him again: "Zhong Yi, thank you for your hard work. Remember to give it to your master!" Zhong Yi nodded solemnly, indicating that he would complete the task. Then, he stood up, said goodbye to everyone and left the room.
Ran Qiuye wanted to clean up, but Ran Qiuye's father stopped her: "Okay, go talk to your mother, I'll clean up."
Ran Qiuye wanted to say something, but her mother pulled her aside to knit a sweater.
At this time, Jia Dongxu, who had been observing all this in the house, felt very upset. He looked at the rich food eagerly and muttered to himself: How could this guy buy so many good things? He didn't even give any to his family. It's really not nice! Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu couldn't help but curl his lips, with a look of resentment on his face.
Before Jia Dongxu could say anything, Jia Zhang came hurriedly over.
