Chapter 21
"This photo takes us so strangely, it looks like..." Gu Mian held the photo and thought about it for a long time but still didn't say the word "lover".She didn't know why she suddenly felt unable to say these two words, if the person she was holding in the photo was Xiao Sisi or even Xiao Huajian, she would be able to say it without any pressure.
In the end, Gu Mian attributed the reason to "Mu Jin looks too serious", so serious that people dare not and can't bear to make fun of her.
So she changed the subject, and said narcissistically: "I look so handsome on the top. With my appearance, I can definitely join the Little Tigers. I have already thought of a name, and I will call it Melancholy Tiger."
Although Mu Jin knew that Gu Mian was talking nonsense, she had to admit that Gu Mian in the photo really looked like a "melancholy handsome man".She looked at Gu Mian who had a sullen face in reality, and calmly reminded: "You've been looking at the photos for almost half an hour, it's time to do your homework, there's a lot of homework today."
Gu Mian suddenly stopped screaming, and answered with her head drooping: "Oh."
After finishing my homework honestly, it was already 07:30.Gu Mian bid farewell to Mu Jin and Zhang Suqin, and went home to cook with her schoolbag on her back.
Although Zhang Suqin said many times that Gu Mian could have dinner directly at his own home, and Xiao Zhenhui could also eat something when he came back from get off work, but Gu Mian would cook it by himself most of the time.
Zhang Suqin knew that she was kind to Gu Mian, and she always kept it in her heart, but it didn't mean that she could enjoy Zhang Suqin's care with peace of mind.
If it's just an occasional meal, it's fine, but if it's every day, it will be too troublesome.
"Try to do what you can do by yourself, and don't always bother others. You can accept other people's kindness to you, but you must never take it for granted. Except me, no one is obligated to you."
——This is what Xiao Zhenhui said to Gu Mian when she was a child, and Gu Mian has always remembered it in her heart.She learned to cook, wash clothes, and do various housework because she didn't want to cause trouble to others.
Putting down her schoolbag, Gu Mian hummed and started cooking.
After washing the rice, mixing it with water, pressing the switch control button, and skillfully cooking the rice in the electric pot, Gu Mian began to choose vegetables again.
Cooking is relatively troublesome. Gu Mian's home is a firewood stove, and when cooking, he needs to add firewood to the stove at any time.She was cooking and burning the fire, sweating profusely from the heat.
After Gu Mian finished frying the dishes, Xiao Zhenhui just got off work.The mother and daughter were eating at the small table in the kitchen, and Gu Mian happily told Xiao Zhenhui about the photo development.
Xiao Zhenhui said with a smile: "Really, show me later."
"No problem." Gu Mian took a few mouthfuls of food, then remembered something, "By the way, Mom, I want to buy a photo frame to put today's photos."
"Whatever photo frame you buy, I have it in the drawer of my bedside table, you just take it and use it."
"Yes! Mom, you are so kind." Gu Mian said flatteringly.
Xiao Zhenhui didn't buy it, and gave Gu Mian a chopstick: "Then let me worry less."
Gu Mian said with a playful smile: "I've been very obedient recently, I've done my homework and haven't caused any trouble."
Xiao Zhenhui said: "It all depends on Ren Xiaojin. If you didn't have her with you, would you do your homework honestly?"
Gu Mian didn't deny it either, and giggled while holding the bowl.
After dinner, Xiao Zhenhui was in charge of washing the dishes, and Gu Mian couldn't wait to get the photo frame.
There are three photo frames in Xiao Zhenhui's drawer, all of which are blank, without photos.
Gu Mian took a photo frame first, thought for a while, and took another one.She had originally planned to put a group photo of the four of them, but there were too many photo frames, so she wanted to put a photo of the two of them with Mu Jin as well.
Back in the room, Gu Mian threw herself on the bed, reached out and dragged the schoolbag not far away.She unzipped her schoolbag and took out the envelope containing the photos.Just when she was about to close the zipper, she suddenly saw a yellow corner in the middle of the English book.
Gu Mian pulled out the contents of the book along that corner, and found that it was another envelope.She looked at it for a while, and suddenly remembered that this was Mu Jin's solo photo!
Gu Mian looked around, and opened the envelope like a thief.She took out the photos inside and looked at them under the orange light.
This photo of Mu Jin was taken very well. In the photo, she turned her head from the front, her face slightly stunned but not confused, which well reflected her desolate temperament.
I don't know if it was affected by Gu Mian moving the back cover, but the photo is a bit exposed.However, the exposed place happens to be slanting down from the upper left, which looks like sunlight hitting Mu Jin's body.
Looking at the girl in the photo, Gu Mian sighed for the umpteenth time: Xiao Jin is so pretty!
It was so beautiful that her heart beat faster.
