Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 311 Mr. Gu’s Intuition

The watermelon in Lin Qingyan's space, this was the first time she got it in the 70s.

Although she has already supplied watermelons in small quantities in modern stores, this is the first time in this era.

After taking the first bite, Mr. Gu paused. He did not continue eating like he did with the pickles.

He had suffered a lot in his life. After liberation, his life gradually improved. Many strange things were brought to him, and he certainly ate a lot of watermelons.

But this watermelon was the most delicious one he had ever tasted. He finished the piece of watermelon in his hand and stopped eating. He said to the orderly:

"Cut the remaining watermelon and give it to Lao Wang and the others."

After saying that, he looked at the uncut watermelon.

"Put this melon away and bring it to the chief tomorrow."

Lin Qingyan was shocked by his performance and almost said that she had a lot, but she finally held back.

"Grandpa Gu, if you like to eat it, I'll go back and grow some and send it to you when the time comes."

Mr. Gu was amused by her words and said without taking it seriously:

"Girl, the watermelon you bought tastes so good that Grandpa can't bear to eat it. Give it to those old friends to try. Grandpa will wait for you to grow it yourself so that I can eat it to my heart's content."

Gu Yizhou, who was ignored by them, also finished eating the melon in his hand. He knew that Lin Qingyan had a lot of things whose origins could not be investigated, so he helped to cover it up:

"My backyard is bigger and no one usually lives there, how about growing some there too?"

Lin Qingyan nodded without any hesitation and agreed, "Okay, let's go plant it tomorrow."

She had no idea that the planting site was in the courtyard. When Old Man Gu heard the conversation between the two, the corners of his mouth twitched, and finally he laughed heartily.

"Well, you two are both good kids. Grandpa is waiting to eat the watermelons you grow."

"Grandpa Gu, this peach tastes good. I'll wash it and you can try it."

Lin Qingyan picked up the peaches on the ground and went to the kitchen. Gu Yizhou hurriedly followed her into the kitchen.

Mr. Gu looked at them with a smile.

"Wash a few first and leave the rest there. The ones that have been washed cannot be put there."

Lin Qingyan brought a lot of peaches, about ten pounds.

"Well, put the washed ones here." Gu Yizhou took a plate and placed it next to Lin Qingyan.

While the two were busy in the kitchen, the orderly had already returned with delivering the watermelons.

Mr. Gu said to his orderly:

"Go to the study and bring me the red box from my drawer."

When the orderly went upstairs,

Lin Qingyan and Gu Yizhou brought out the washed peaches, and Lin Qingyan was considerate enough to cut one of the peaches into small pieces.

This was of course learned from Zhou Limei. Every time a new product was available in the store, Zhou Limei would cut it into small pieces and let the customers have a taste.

Lin Qingyan considered that the old man had just eaten pickles and watermelon, and might not be able to finish the whole peach, so she cut the peach into pieces.

Old Man Gu took a piece and put it in his mouth, and he knew that both the peach and the watermelon were good things. He was not allowed to give them away this time. The peach could still be kept for a few days. He would take some to the leader tomorrow and keep the rest and not give them to those old friends.

He ate two more pieces with a smile, and felt even more satisfied when he saw Lin Qingyan cutting it into pieces considerately.

"Qingyan, sit down and have a rest. Grandpa thanks you for bringing me these delicious fruits. Although Grandpa has eaten a lot of food, this is the first time that he has eaten something so appetizing."

As Mr. Gu spoke, he handed a red box and a red envelope beside him to Lin Qingyan.

"Girl, this is a gift from your grandpa. This box is a gift from Yizhou's grandma. Take a look and see if you like it."

Lin Qingyan quickly stood up and refused.

"Grandpa Gu, it's my duty to come visit you. I brought these fruits to you because I thought they were delicious."

Gu Yizhou's grandmother had passed away many years ago. Before she died, she prepared gifts for her grandchildren's future granddaughters-in-law.

This gift was originally intended to be given at the wedding, but Mr. Gu liked Lin Qingyan very much. She looked thin, but her eyes were firm and her gaze was clear.

The most important point is that Mr. Gu thinks she is a lucky star.

Gu Yizhou was seriously injured, and the doctors thought he would never wake up. However, he woke up as soon as Lin Qingyan went to accompany him. Even the doctors found it strange.

He even tried to get the ginseng that Lin Qingyan brought, but Mr. Gu felt that this girl was his grandson's lucky star, which was why his grandson recovered so quickly.

After the establishment of the new country, the common people were not superstitious, but he was in a high position and knew a lot. Of course, he knew that in various parts of the motherland, many things could not be explained by science.

He believed in his intuition, and it was this intuition that kept him away from danger on the battlefield and allowed him to live to this age.

"Girl, just take what's given to you. Even if you're not my granddaughter-in-law in the future, I'll still treat you as my granddaughter. It's given by your grandparents, so take it with confidence."

Gu Yizhou's face darkened at what Old Man Gu said. He looked at his grandfather silently, his eyes aggrieved, and said to Old Man Gu dissatisfiedly:

"grandfather!"

"Ahem, Grandpa's hearing is not good. I can't hear you!"

Old Master Gu simply stuffed all the boxes and red envelopes in his hand to Lin Qingyan.

Lin Qingyan felt a little amused and helpless, and looked at Gu Yizhou.

Gu Yizhou took a deep breath, stopped paying attention to his grandfather who was getting more and more lively as he got older, and said to Lin Qingyan:

"This is a gift from grandpa and grandma, please keep it!"

Lin Qingyan looked at Mr. Gu again, and seeing that he had no intention of taking it back, she did not refuse and said to him:

"Thank you, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu!"

"Open it quickly and see if you like it?" Old Master Gu urged Lin Qingyan.

Lin Qingyan put the red envelope in her pocket and then looked at the box in her hand. The box was dark red and carved with ancient patterns. She opened the box and revealed an emerald green bracelet.

She quickly closed the box, handed it to Gu Yizhou, and said to Old Man Gu:

"Grandpa Gu, this is too valuable. I can't accept it. I'll accept the red envelope you gave me, but I can't accept this."

Mr. Gu directly signaled the orderly to come forward and help him.

"I don't care. I can't take back the gift I gave away!"

After saying that, he asked the orderly to accompany him for a stroll in the yard.

Lin Qingyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and looked at Gu Yizhou. Gu Yizhou opened the box, took out the bracelet and looked at it carefully.

"This bracelet was my grandmother's favorite. It was her family's dowry and was said to be passed down from her ancestors. She often wore it when she was alive. Later, when she was sick,

He took it down and said he would leave it for his future granddaughter-in-law. When my brother got married, I thought my grandfather would give it to my eldest sister-in-law, but he didn't.

And your grandfather gave it to you when you came for the first time.

Qingyan, keep it! I will only marry you in this life. If, I mean, if something happens to me and you marry someone else, this is also a gift for you. "

Lin Qingyan simply reached out and covered his mouth, stopping him from saying anything else.
