Chapter 10
After going out that time, Gu Ningyuan returned to his previous life, the only thing he did every day was to be with Shen Yue.
As Gu Shengquan gained more and more power and his position became more consolidated, gradually fewer people came to Gu Ningyuan.
Uncle Chen dealt with all the matters early in the morning, and sighed with some disappointment: "These days, even invitations to those events are much less."
In the past, when Gu Lv was still around, Chen Boguang would spend a whole morning tactfully and politely rejecting various invitations every day.
Gu Ningyuan was on the side with his computer turned on, and it was time for the stock market to open, and the red and green lines on the screen were intertwined, fluctuating up and down.
After Gu Ningyuan finished dealing with several of the stocks, he glanced at the time, and it was already 09:30.
He got up and closed the computer, and casually said to Chen Bo: "You have been working for so many years, take a break first, you will still be busy in the future."
Uncle Chen was certain.
Gu Ningyuan turned around and left the study room, and asked Mama Liu to prepare breakfast for two, and bring it into the bedroom later.
Shen Yue was still sleeping at this time.
It turned out that Shen Yue woke up very early, and when he woke up, he didn't speak, and stayed quietly on the bed.But after being hospitalized, to be precise, after being taken over and raised by Gu Ningyuan, Shen Yue fell asleep for longer and longer.
After a while of shaking, Shen Yue wrinkled his nose, turned over and got up.
The room was covered with thick blankets, and the corners of the tables and chairs were also wrapped with cloth.Shen Yue stepped on the ground with bare feet, and Bai Shengsheng's little feet were sunk in the fluff of the carpet. Gu Ningyuan took his left wrist and walked to the bathroom.
Gu Ningyuan squeezed out the toothpaste and stuffed the toothbrush into Shen Yue's hand.After the toothbrush was ready, Gu Ningyuan wiped off the white foam on Shen Yue's face first, and then carefully wiped Shen Yue's face not covered by gauze with a wet towel.
After such a long time, Shen Yue was finally able to accept that Gu Ningyuan treated him like this with peace of mind.
After eating, Shen Yue was holding a tape recorder, the volume was very low, and he could vaguely hear a sweet female voice telling some fairy tales.
Shen Yue was bored, rolled over on the bed, and accidentally moved to Gu Ningyuan's side.
Gu Ningyuan put down the book in his hand, turned his head and asked him: "What is this story about?"
Shen Yue couldn't answer.
Gu Ningyuan took the tape recorder and put it aside, looked at the weather outside, and suggested, "Would you like to go out for a stroll?"
The Gu family is a big house that has been built for many years. It has a simple style, three floors, and a large garden below. Without modern facilities such as the swimming pool that the villa now has, young people naturally find it boring.
Probably the only commendable thing is that the yard is full of flowers, and almost all flowers are in full bloom throughout the year.It was planted by Qin Shu one by one. After more than [-] years in the Gu family, she finally carefully arranged the garden as she wanted.
There is a pavilion in the center of the garden, made of stone.Green vines hang down from around the pavilion, and the fence below is covered with roses, budding, and the early morning dew is stained on the flower buds, which have not yet dissipated.
Liu Ma brought several plates of snacks and fruits and placed them on the stone table in the pavilion. Gu Ningyuan stood not far away, holding Shen Yue by the hand.
She could vaguely hear the conversation between the two from a distance.
In front of the two of them was a clump of purple irises.
Shen Yue was a little curious, "What kind of flower is this?"
Gu Ningyuan replied softly, holding a kettle in the other hand, and watered the flowers carefully.
After a while, Shen Yue asked again: "What does this flower look like?"
Obviously relying on Gu Ningyuan's poor language skills, he couldn't describe the beauty of Iris at all.
Gu Ningyuan thought for a while, squatted down and gently bent a flower, then pulled Shen Yue's hand, and touched the petals with his fingertips.
"Can you feel it?"
The purple petals trembled slightly. It was the first time for Shen Yue to touch a flower so carefully. The silky feeling slipped through her fingertips, very gentle.
The corners of Shen Yue's mouth curled up slightly, showing a sincere smile, and then nodded.
Before his hand could leave the flower, a drop of cold dew flowed down from the petal, Shen Yue was startled, and hid his hand.
The flower was beaten to one side, lost several petals, and rolled several times on the ground, covered with dust.
Mother Liu was taken aback. The words in this yard were planted by Gu Ningyuan with Qin Shu. Gu Ningyuan cherished these flowers very much after taking care of them from childhood to adulthood.As Qin Shu became more ill, Gu Ningyuan cared more about these flowers, as if the better these flowers bloomed and the more vigorous their vitality, Qin Shu's body would also get better.
But Qin Shu died in the end, at the end of spring.
After Qin Shu's death in the previous life, Gu Ningyuan raised these flowers for many years, but one time the gardener was not careful, or maybe someone in Gu's family sincerely found him unhappy, and more than half of them died at the end of spring.
Later, Gu Ningyuan no longer raised flowers, and instead planted trees and evergreen shrubs in the Gu family's yard.Throughout the year, it is always lush and full of forest shadows, just like the more mature and restrained Gu Ningyuan, no one can guess what he is thinking.
Speaking of which, Gu Ningyuan hasn't seen these flowers for a long time.
Shen Yue took a step back, he didn't know what happened, but he was quite sensitive to the changes in the atmosphere, and asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
But Gu Ningyuan didn't say anything, his eyelids trembled, but he folded off the broken iris and stuffed it into Shen Yue's hand.
"It's nothing," Gu Ningyuan whispered softly and very gently, "I'll give you this flower first, and come down to see it when your eyes are healed."
Liu Ma was quite surprised. Although she knew that Gu Ningyuan loved this young master of unknown origin very much, she didn't know it would come to this point.
Shen Yue held flowers in his arms and stuck them to his heart. Gu Ningyuan took him to the pavilion and started feeding him snacks again.
In fact, it was not long after breakfast at this time, and Shen Yue couldn't eat anything, but ever since Gu Ningyuan raised him, he deliberately wanted to make him fat and white.
Ever since Shen Yue said the dim sum was too sweet last time, all the dim sum made in the kitchen were salty.But this time it was the colorful dough again.
Gu Ningyuan took a sip first, and it was still the same sweet and cloying taste as before, but his eyebrows and eyes stretched unexpectedly.But when he finished eating one, he put down his chopsticks again and looked at Mama Liu.
Before he could ask, Mother Liu explained first, with an apologetic face, "It's all my fault. I was too busy telling the kitchen to make salty desserts, and forgot about putting less sugar in desserts."
Gu Ningyuan put another one into his mouth, with a steady voice, "It's okay, I'll remember it next time."
When another plate of dim sum with less sugar came in, Gu Ningyuan had already finished the previous plate.
This plate was made according to Shen Yue's requirements. It was less sugary so it wasn't greasy. Shen Yue gave Gu Ningyuan a lot of face and ate several of them.The most important thing this time is that the dim sum is not too sweet or greasy, so he can eat more.
But in the end, I still didn't finish a plate.Gu Ningyuan tasted one of the leftovers, and when he bit into his mouth, he froze for a moment, swallowed this one slowly, and didn't eat the second one.
Just when Gu Ningyuan was about to peel another apple, Uncle Chen happened to come in and said that Zhang Jin was here and had something important to do.
Gu Ningyuan put down the apple, wiped his hands, and told Mama Liu, "Peel an apple, cut it into a bowl and give it to him."
Then she said to Shen Yue: "Wait obediently, I'll be back later."
Mama Liu's skill in peeling apples is very good, and she is very good at pleasing the children. The apples she cut out are in the shape of little rabbits in TV shows, but it is a pity that Shen Yue can't see them.
Shen Yuean ate the apple quietly, and the iris flower on his chest trembled as he chewed.
There is still half a plate of small snacks left on the table. It has always been one of the best dishes in the kitchen, but recently it has been made less. It usually puts [-] cents of sugar, but now it is at most three or four cents.
Looking at the plate of dim sum, Mama Liu had complicated emotions in her heart, but she couldn't express it, so she had to put away all the dim sum plates, and said with a sigh, "It would be great if the young master also likes sweets!"
The voice was extremely soft, although Shen Yue knew that the young master was calling him, but he didn't know whether he should respond or not.
After a while, there was a sound of tapping and tapping from the other side of the stairs. Shen Yue thought it was Gu Ningyuan, and stood up from the stool.
It was an unfamiliar voice.
"Are you the baby lump that Ning Yuan hid?"
Zhang Jin and Gu Ningyuan finished talking, threw away the materials, and walked out of the study on their own.I asked the servant again, and knowing that the newly opened Young Master was in the garden, I wandered down.
Zhang Jin was quite surprised to find it so quickly.He walked up to Shen Yue, looked at him carefully several times, and even wanted to reach out and touch his head.But Shen Yue was extremely sensitive to the outside world, Zhang Jin had already stepped back a few steps before touching her hand.
Zhang Jin looked at his empty hand and teased him with a smile: "Are you so afraid of strangers? I'm your brother's good friend. He just asked me to take you back to my house to play!"
"Mr. Gu won't do it!"
Shen Yue turned his head and ran out.Liu Ma was taken aback by his actions and quickly stopped him.Shen Yue couldn't see it, but relying on the impression he had just entered, he held on to the fence next to the pavilion and planned to run out.But the construction of this pavilion is different, the foundation is very high, and there are steps all around.At that time, probably for the sake of beauty, the style of each staircase was different.Shen Yue only remembered the one in front when he came in, but he didn't know the one behind.
And the stairs were staggered up and down, rotating, Shen Yue stepped on the air, and fell facing the loess.
Liu Ma is too old to keep up with the movement, and she doesn't catch him.
When Gu Ningyuan went downstairs, he saw Shen Yue lying on the ground alone, slowly supporting the ground with both hands, planning to get up by himself.He hurried over in three steps at a time, picked up Shen Yue, hugged him directly in his arms, lowered his head and asked softly, "Where did you fall? Does it hurt?"
"No, it doesn't hurt..."
Shen Yue was still very dazed, he hadn't reacted much since he just fell, and luckily he didn't fall on the stone slab, but on the soft ground beside him, so he didn't get his nose crooked.In fact, he hadn't noticed the pain just now, and he wanted to get up and run again, but now that he was hugged by Gu Ningyuan, and asked gently like this, he felt aggrieved instead, buried his whole face in Gu Ningyuan's chest, and hugged him tightly his neck.
Gu Ningyuan patted the dirt on Shen Yue's body and rubbed himself all over, but he didn't mind at all, coaxing him softly.
Zhang Jin on the side was amazed, he and Gu Ningyuan grew up together, but he had never seen him like this.
That kind of expression and posture, which is both patient and loving, is simply the most precious thing.
