Chapter 208 The abandoned first wife (12)
She turned around and saw a young man in his early twenties, wearing a three-piece suit, tall and straight, with a gentle temperament.
Yo ho!The noble son of the Republic of China!
His tone of voice was also very easy-going. He was not questioning Chen Duanduan, as if he was simply curious about her actions.
It won't make people feel embarrassed.
Gu Zhizhou, the head of the Education Section of the Le'an County Government who had just taken office, wanted to come to the school to take a look when he had nothing to do. As soon as he arrived at the school gate, he saw this little girl wandering around. Out of curiosity, he observed it for a while.Realizing that she actually wanted to climb over the wall, she couldn't help but interfere.
He didn't think the child had any bad intentions. He might have never been to school and was curious about school.But he couldn't just watch her climb over the wall. What if she fell?
Chen Duanduan: "...I'm curious about what's like inside the school, and I want to take a look at it from the wall."
Gu Zhizhou pretended to believe it. He showed a gentle smile and said, "My name is Gu Zhizhou, and I just want to go in for a visit. If you want to see inside, I will take you in."
Chen Duanduan: "No, thank you. I can just take a look outside."
Gu Zhizhou: "..."
what happened?I want to climb over the wall and take a look, but you won’t go in with me openly?
Chen Duanduan: "..."
She was just idle and bored, just having fun.Follow you in and visit, who knows where things will develop next.Still not going!
She took the initiative and said, "Goodbye."
After saying that, he left without any regrets.
Gu Zhizhou stood there for a moment, not thinking clearly about the child's brain.
When the two met for the second time, Chen Duanduan was selling vegetables.
As soon as Gu Zhizhou saw her, he couldn't help but walked over.
"We meet again," he said.
Gu Zhizhou didn't know why, but since the day he saw this little girl, her face seemed to be imprinted in his mind. He couldn't forget it, but it became more vivid and lively.
If he hadn't known that his mother had only given birth to him, he would have suspected that this was his biological sister who was living abroad.
Chen Duanduan: "..."
Why is this surprise on your face?Those who didn’t know thought you had met a long-lost relative.
"Hello, Mr. Gu. The vegetables grown at home are very fresh. Would you like some?"
"Okay, I want them all, can you deliver them to my house?"
"sure."
Idle is idle.
The two of them were walking and chatting. Gu Zhizhou said, "I work for the county government and live in the government compound. You don't have to worry, I'm not a bad person."
"I'm not worried, you look like a good person." Chen Duanduan said casually.
Gu Zhizhou is both happy that she thinks he is a good person, but also worried that others will deceive her if she is so naive: "Bad people will not write 'I am a bad person' on their faces, so you should not trust others easily."
Chen Duanduan stopped and said, "Why don't I go? Give me the money and take the food back."
Gu Zhizhou instantly felt as if he had shot himself in the foot.
He swayed and said, "I'm not in good health and can't carry it. Please help me take it back."
For this acting skill, the most I can give is 1 point, which is considered a hard work point.
Chen Duanduan rolled his eyes: "...let's go quickly."
Gu Zhizhou smiled and continued to lead the way.When he arrived at the gate of the compound, he said to the gatekeeper, Uncle Zhang, "Master Zhang, when this girl comes, you can just let her in to find me."
Uncle Zhang looked at Chen Duanduan and agreed with a smile.
The place where Gu Zhizhou lives is also a small bungalow in a courtyard.Red brick house, glass windows, wooden floors, bright and clean windows.
Small but complete.
Hey!It would be nice if this was my own.Her thatched hut really didn't look good compared to this place.
Chen Duanduan followed Gu Zhizhou in, thinking about putting down the dishes, collecting the money and leaving.
But she didn't expect that Gu Zhizhou wanted to talk to her about a few dollars.
"Don't be too busy walking, sit down and rest for a while."
Chen Duanduan followed his advice and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Hey, this sofa is not bad either.Want to take it away!
Gu Zhizhou could tell. The girl looked at his residence with bright eyes. She was obviously much happier than seeing him.
He made a cup of tea, handed it to Chen Duanduan, and asked, "Can you tell me your name?"
"Chen Duanduan."
"Duan Duan, Qing Qing Zhi Ni, a good name."
Faced with Teacher Gu's over-interpretation, Chen Duanduan kindly did not expose it.
"You were wandering around the school gate last time. Did you want to go to school?"
Chen Duanduan said in surprise: "Why do you still remember this?"
Gu Zhizhou didn't answer this question, mainly because he couldn't explain why he was so curious.After all, he usually doesn't have such great curiosity.
After much deliberation, he attributed this curiosity to the fact that he was an education section chief and felt happy when he met a child who was dedicated to learning.
Also, he fell in love with this girl as soon as he saw her. Since he has no other relatives, he should treat her as a non-blood relative.
"Isn't it convenient to tell?" Gu Zhizhou asked.
"It's not inconvenient. Who doesn't want to study? Isn't there no such condition?"
"If you want to read it, I can help you."
"do not want!"
Chen Duanduan simply refused.
Considering the mood of this kind person, she added tactfully: "Thank you, Mr. Gu, but I don't want to owe anyone else a favor. And I haven't been to school for a day. Now, isn't it too late to start from scratch?" "
"As long as you want to, it's never too late."
Chen Duanduan didn't answer anymore, and his rejection was written directly on his face.
Gu Zhizhou didn't try to force others to do anything. Seeing that she really wouldn't accept it, he stopped trying to persuade her.Then he said: "If you still come to the city to sell vegetables in the future, please bring them to me. I think your vegetables are very fresh, and I want to eat them anyway."
Chen Duanduan readily accepted this.The vegetables she grows are of course the best.
Chen Duan was sitting on the soft and hard sofa, drinking black tea made by Teacher Gu, eating biscuits, and thinking about whether to buy himself a small courtyard in the county town.
There is a lot of gold in her space, but there is no place to spend it.
But after thinking about it again and again, staying in the county town was just as boring. It was better to grow vegetables in the countryside.
Teacher Gu got up and went to the study room. When he came out, he had a "Hanhe Dictionary" in his hand.
He handed the heavy dictionary to Chen Duanduan and said, "Although conditions prohibit me from going to school, self-study is possible."
Chen Duanduan: "...I thank you."
Looking at Chen Duanduan's forced smile, Gu Zhizhou was suddenly in a good mood.
He didn't know what was going on, but he felt very happy when he saw the little girl's changing expressions.At this moment, he suddenly understood a little bit about the adults who always teased children.They always make the children laugh and cry, and then make them laugh and cry again.He used to think that those people were so boring, and for children, they were simply disgusting!
Now, he feels that he can learn from their experience.
Next, Gu Zhizhou spent some time explaining how to use the book and introduced her to his name.
"The original meaning of the word Duan is beginning. There is a word called Beginning, which means just that. The first month of every year is also called Duanyue. Later it was extended to mean righteousness and straightness. Your parents must have given you this name because they hope you will be a person with upright character. , decent people.”
Chen Duanduan decided not to save face for him and said bluntly: "My parents are both illiterate. They gave me this name just because I was born on the Dragon Boat Festival."
Gu Zhizhou: "..."
The air was suddenly quiet for a moment.
Gu Zhizhou coughed lightly to break the embarrassment: "Anyway, the name is quite nice."
"That's true."
When leaving, Chen Duanduan hugged the big dictionary and said to Teacher Gu with great distress: "I can't take your dictionary for nothing. Please eat free food for a month. I will give it away once every five days."
"That's great. It saves me a lot of time. You come here at noon and I will be at home at that time. You can take a note of the things you don't understand during the study process and ask me when the time comes."
Chen Duanduan: "..."
Otherwise, forget it.
Gu Zhizhou seemed to have a glimpse of her thoughts and said with a smile: "I won't buy groceries from now on. I will just wait for you to deliver groceries."
Then, Chen Duanduan became Gu Zhizhou's vegetable supplier.
