Chapter 71: A bit like tea
Gu Si didn't know what Pei Yanning was thinking, so he went to meet him when he saw him.

"Dad, you're home. Lingxi went to heat up some food for you."

Pei Yanning was covered in starlight and cold frost all over his body. When he saw Gu Si put on a strategic fake smile at the first moment, he spoke hesitantly.

"Dad didn't disturb you!"

Lingxi pricked up her ears to listen to the noise: "..."

It tastes a bit like tea.

Gu Si: “Guess!”

But, he couldn't say that.

"Dad, Lingxi will be sad to hear you say that. We have made a bed for you and made a small bedroom for you. You can come back and take a look if there is anything you are not satisfied with. We will change it."

Pei Yanning was stunned.

The small bedroom is his!

Pei Yanning came back to his senses, afraid that if he was too late, Gu Si would go back on his word, so he agreed immediately.

"Dad is fine. He has lived in all kinds of places in the mountains. It's good enough to have a bed and a place to shelter from the wind and rain."

He then reassured Gu Si: “Dad will come back as soon as he is free.

But my dad has a lot to do, and he is often busy at night, so he may not be home very often."

He even glanced at Gu Si carefully, fearing that he would be disliked if he came back more often.

Looking at this noble young man who was always calm and smiling, and whose eyebrows and eyes were similar to Lingxi's, revealing a cautious expression, Gu Si felt uncomfortable.

"Dad, Lingxi and I have just started living on our own and don't know anything. We only feel at ease when you are around."

"Really?"

"Really? Otherwise, you can ask Lingxi later." Lingxi would definitely respond more cheerfully.

"All right!"

Pei Yanning was even happier.

Gu Si didn't notice that for a moment, Pei Yanning's delicate face showed a triumphant smile.

However, he didn't really plan to stand between the young couple every day. He believed that Gu Si was serious about what he said now, but he was afraid that as an old man, he would become an eyesore over time.

Pei Yanning touched his face subconsciously.

Ugh!
I’m old!

But the next moment he realized that he was in front of his son-in-law and had to behave properly. He withdrew his hand, straightened the wrinkles on his collar to conceal his feelings, and his eyes were full of melancholy.

Gu Si noticed Pei Yanning's little move: "..."

!!!

ha?
Gu Si tried hard not to smile in front of his father-in-law. He recalled the brief time he had spent with his father-in-law and the few words he had heard from the three brothers of the Pei family.

He asked tentatively: "Dad, I made some facial cream for Lingxi a few days ago. It was a secret recipe from the front and back palaces. Lingxi said it was better than the vanishing cream sold at the supply and marketing cooperative.

I made a little too much, how about I give you some?"

Worried about his father-in-law's self-esteem, he added: "You can give it to someone else as you like!"

Pei Yanning: “…”

!!!

He coughed: "Well, then give me some."

He added: "I have a friend whose face is rough. If you apply some on him, it might help him find a wife in the future."

I have a friend who is still single, Lao Hei: "..."

I thank you!
Gu Si: “…”

"Okay, I know you have many friends."

Pei Yanning: “…”

The two talked as they reached the yard. Pei Yanning handed the things in his hand to Gu Si and went to the well to fetch water to wash his hands. Lingxi heated up a bowl of shredded chicken porridge and paired it with a few refreshing side dishes. When she heard the noise and poked her head out, she discovered that the two were getting along very harmoniously.

Lingxi: “…”!!!

Wow!

Although I had expected this, I still feel disillusioned, ahahahaha…

She didn't laugh in front of Gu Si, but waved for someone to come and serve the dishes.

Most of the things she took out from the storage pendant were leftovers from when Gu Si made a large amount and couldn’t finish it. They just had to be heated up.

She leaned over to look at what Gu Si brought over, curiously: "What is this?"

The moment Gu Si saw the food, he was stunned. Before Gu Si could say anything, Pei Yanning, who had just finished cleaning up, had already spoken: "The meat, Dad got it from someone else, it tastes amazing."

He told what he heard from Lao Hei, and then said to Gu Si: "You have good cooking skills, make it into jerky, but don't eat it after you are done.

Dad will eat for a while first, you guys can eat later if it’s ok.”

Pei Yanning originally planned to come back to Lingxi in a few days, but if the meat was left there, he didn't know what it would become, so he came here just to deliver the meat.

However, Pei Yanning didn't dare let Lingxi eat it directly.

Lingxi looked at the meat with a little surprise, but Gu Si's expression was very subtle.

Pei Yanning continued, "Although it's ugly, it tastes okay. I feel like it should be a good thing, but it's something I've never seen before, so I'm afraid there will be problems later."

He emphasized again: "Wait until Dad makes sure it's okay before you eat."

Gu Si: “…”

no problem!

Level 1 energy meat, what’s the problem?
Not only is there no problem, but eating it regularly can also subtly strengthen your body!
The speed is just too slow for ordinary people to detect.

However, when energy meat is exposed to the air, the energy will dissipate rapidly and it will go bad and stink in seven days at most. Interstellar history is long, and even in hundreds of thousands of years of interstellar history, there is no way to solve this problem.

At least, that's what he looked like before he was sucked into the black hole.

But at this moment, Gu Si couldn't tell Pei Yanning directly, so he agreed to Pei Yanning's words first, "Okay, I'll make it for Dad later."

He will linger outside for a while, Lingxi will definitely be asleep when he returns.

Pei Yanning is directly preventing him from committing crimes!

Gu Si didn't accomplish anything because of Pei Yanning's return. Lingxi woke up in the morning according to her biological clock, and Gu Si and Pei Yanning were not there.

Pei Yanning should have returned to the mountains. Gu Si left her a note and went to the town to do some business.

After Lingxi had finished her meal, she took out the winter clothes she had just started making and continued working on them. In the middle of the morning, someone came to her house.

Lingxi was shocked when she saw Pei Fuzhu.

Is their relationship good enough for them to visit each other?

Pei Bok Joo rolled her eyes subconsciously when she saw Ling Xi. She wanted to say something to her, but she held back and handed her the backpack she had brought with her, saying unhappily, "Grandma asked me to give it to you!"

The old lady was worried that they had just moved in and there was nothing to eat in the vegetable garden.

Lingxi's eyebrows curved into a smile instantly.

Pei Fuzhu snorted, but her eyes moved around the yard and the house, saying sourly: "Second uncle really loves you. This house is really well built."

This yard will never be out of date even after decades.

After Pei Fuzhu finished her sarcasm, she got down to business.

"Is your fourth son not at home?" She looked outside again, and as if to make sure that no one was around, she lowered her voice again: "Keep an eye on your Gu Qingbei, don't let him mess around. If he gets caught for speculation, you won't have anywhere to cry."

In the previous life, the Gu family was reported by someone, and the search team found a lot of things in the Gu family.

Gu Qingbei, a slacker who doesn't go to work every day, deserved to be arrested.

If there is someone squatting under a fence in the house, the whole family can't raise their heads.

It was not until the end of 1958, when the younger uncle returned home and heard about Pei Hongzhu's situation in the Gu family, that he helped the old Gu family and Gu Qingbei was released.

Pei Fuzhu thought about this matter recently, and after much hesitation, she came over to tell Lingxi about it.

Lingxi is the apple of her uncle's eye, so she should consider this as a way of repaying her uncle!
