Chapter 83 - 83: Fragrant and Tender



After leaving the counter, Gu Zi and the others ascended to the third floor.

The first two counters on this floor were brimming with all sorts of books, and there were even more books lining the shelves behind them.

Gu Zi selected two books for herself, both related to exams.

Su Bing opted for “Romance of the Three Kingdoms,” and Gu Zi couldn’t help but secretly exclaim, “As expected of a future big shot!”

Su Li, on the other hand, picked “Journey to the West,” and Gu Zi felt it suited his future path.

Su Shen simply paid for the items. He had never been this content with his money.

Later, they went shopping for toys, fruits, and vegetables. With Su Shen accompanying them, Gu Zi had no worries about carrying their purchases.

She had been concerned about Su Shen’s injuries not having healed much, but he had reassured her, and she was truly relieved.

Furthermore, to make future shopping in the city easier, Gu Zi had asked Su Shen to buy a small bamboo cart.

Once they had paid, they placed Lele in the cart along with other heavy items that were cumbersome to carry. Su Shen pushed the cart.

They returned home just as the sun was setting.

Gu Zi ensured that Su Shen got some rest, and she took charge of the kitchen. Su Li was still engrossed with his new toy, a cold iron gun that he couldn’t bear to put down.

Su Bing, however, delved into the book he had just acquired.

Gu Zi unpacked the vegetables she had purchased, opened the refrigerator, and found some fresh pork ribs. She immediately conceived a menu for the evening in her mind.

The main dish would be stewed pork ribs with kidney beans and potatoes, accompanied by steamed vermicelli. She planned to use the rib soup to enhance the flavor of the vermicelli, so she ensured there was plenty of soup reserved for the pork ribs.

Once her plan was in place, she set to work. She diced the potatoes, sliced the kidney beans, and prepared onions, ginger, and garlic for later use.

She blanched the pork ribs, heated some oil in a pot, and sautéed the onions, ginger, and garlic until they released their fragrance. Then, she added the drained pork ribs and stir-fried them.

When the ribs took on a golden hue, she added soy sauce to give them color and poured in water to submerge the ribs. Then, she covered the pot, waiting for the delicious flavors to meld together.

The pork ribs needed about 20 minutes to cook before adding the potato cubes and kidney beans, giving Gu Zi ample time to change Su Shen’s bandages.

She went upstairs, retrieved the first aid kit, and sat beside Su Shen.

Despite Su Shen’s reassurances that the wound wasn’t deep and wasn’t a major concern, Gu Zi felt it was best to take it seriously, especially since he had lost so much blood.

Su Shen thanked her and asked her to apply the medicine.

Her hands were small and delicate, with smooth, gentle skin.

When she was bandaging him, her fingers occasionally brushed against his arm, creating a soft and comforting sensation.

After quickly changing Su Shen’s bandages, she glanced at the TV, which read 6:30 in the evening.

She had noticed the time on the TV when she had come out of the kitchen earlier, which was 6:20 pm. There were about 15 minutes left before she needed to return to the kitchen to finish preparing the side dishes.

Gu Zi watched a cartoon on TV and yawned a few times, eventually dozing off without realizing it.

Just as Su Shen was about to get up, he felt a weight on his leg. The woman had drifted off and was resting on his lap. He couldn’t help but hold his breath.

He secretly let out a sigh of relief. A smile appeared in his eyes as he watched her sleep.

Her eyelashes were thick and long, covering her eyes at this moment, making her look quiet and gentle.

Her neck was slender and white, as beautiful as a swan’s neck.

Her side profile was gentle and beautiful. Just the way she slept made her look like a piece of art.

Gu Zi woke up in a daze and murmured, “My ribs…” Then she realized something was amiss. She had not only fallen asleep but also found herself lying on Su Shen’s lap.

She raised her head, a bit embarrassed, and said, “I’m sorry, I don’t know why I fell asleep.”

Su Shen, understanding, replied, “You’ve been running around a lot since yesterday. It’s normal to feel a bit tired.”

Gu Zi quickly made her way to the kitchen.

Meanwhile, at Chu Xi’s house, chaos reigned as Chu Xi had been taken away. The family was in turmoil, with everyone blaming each other.

“If you hadn’t treated my mother so harshly, she wouldn’t have done what she did,” Chu Tian accused.

Chu Xi’s in-laws glared at their granddaughter, furious. They scolded her, “You, little pig! You’re just like your mother. You’re useless.. How dare you criticize us?”
