I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

Chapter 390 Understanding

Gu Chao had a helpless smile on his face, sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hands, and the little girl fell firmly into his arms.

Gu Chao has a broad and fiery chest, making it easy for people to become attached to him.

Wei Lan took a deep breath of the breath that smelled of him, and asked in a muffled voice filled with self-blame: "Is grandma really not angry?"

Gu Chao asked Wei Lan, "Then are you angry?"

"Me?" Wei Lan was stunned and straightened up from his arms, "Why should I be angry?"

Gu Chao asked again, "Then why is grandma angry?"

"Because, because I said the wrong thing!" Wei Lan was startled for a moment, and was almost taken into the ditch by Gu Chao, "I was anxious at the time and didn't think so much..."

Her shoulders suddenly slumped, her face was buried low, and her whole body was dyed with a depressed atmosphere, "What should we do now?"

"You are good for me, and grandma is also good for me. Just as you can understand her, she will also understand you." Afraid that Wei Lan would continue to get into trouble, Gu Chao hugged her and kissed the top of her hair, "I bought a sewing machine. I bought a bicycle and got a beating, how are you going to reward and compensate me?”

"W-what do you want?" Wei Lan sobbed, her face slightly red. After a while, she remembered that Gu Chao was injured, and her expression suddenly became nervous again.

Wei Lan stretched out her hand to lift off his clothes, "Grandma is not soft-hearted at all when she hits someone... How are you feeling? Do you feel any pain? Let me see!"

Gu Chao quickly stopped him. It was impossible not to feel pain. His back was still burning. It was probably covered with marks one after the other.

He was afraid that Wei Lan would cry again when he saw it, so he quickly diverted his attention and said, "I'm fine. I haven't eaten yet at noon and I'm hungry... I want to eat the cold skin you made last time."

"Then, I'll make it for you!" Wei Lan stood up immediately, walked quickly to the door and turned around to look at Gu Chao, "The cold skin will be better for a while, how about I make something else first, and you can cushion it?"

"It's okay, I'll wait for you." Gu Chao shook his head gently.

 While Wei Lan went to work in the kitchen, Gu Chao sat on the edge of the bed and moved his arms slightly. When he moved, his clothes rubbed against the skin of his back, and he frowned slightly.

The sound of kneading dough soon came from the kitchen, and Gu Chao's face softened with tenderness.

Slowly, he stood up and strode toward Grandma Gu's room on the other side of the hall.

"Why…"

As soon as I entered the room, I heard Grandma Gu sitting by the bed and sighing.

Gu Chao paused slightly and said, "Grandma, are you still angry with me?"

"She's right, why am I angry with her?" Grandma Gu sighed, and stepped aside to make a place for Gu Chao to sit, "I'm angry with myself for not being able to see the situation clearly, and letting you and Lan Ya took a detour."

Gu Chao shook his head gently, his eyes full of sincerity, "Grandma, we have never thought of it this way."

 To Gu Chao, Grandma Gu may have backward ideas, but she is always for their own good, and more often than not, her actions are in a good direction, and she is not the kind of unreasonable and cunning old lady.

 Gu Chao respected her, so he was filial.

Grandma Gu laughed twice with an old voice, and looked at Gu Chao with loving eyes, "When you grow up, Grandma will not restrain you anymore. In the future, you will be the master of your own family. If you have a wife and children, you can't be like this again." So willful."

Perhaps by that time, Gu Chao himself will understand that his wife and children are his responsibilities and cannot be done without him. At that time, he will seriously think about what he can do with his time and what he cannot do.

Grandma Gu waved her hand, "Go and get busy."

"I want to be with Wei Lan. Now that she is with me, I can't let her live a hard life." Gu Chao revealed his truest thoughts in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I already have enough money. Such dangerous deeds will never happen in the future."

As if to promise, Gu Chao finished speaking, stood up and left the room.

In the room, Grandma Gu was stunned for a moment, tears welling up in her muddy old eyes. After a while, Grandma Gu wiped her tears and said with a smile: "The old thing is becoming more and more useless. Your descendants will have their own blessings. Don't worry about it. You can just enjoy it in peace." There is a simpler way to make Liangpi. Just fill the slurry with high-gluten flour and wheat starch according to the proportion, and then steam it in a pot in small amounts many times and take it out.

 Layers of thin cold skin are stacked together, then cut into long strips with a knife, then put into a bowl, mixed with ingredients and ready to eat.

Wei Lan did not choose a simple method, but mixed high-gluten flour into dough, and obtained slurry and gluten at the same time after washing the dough.

 The gluten is steamed and cut into pieces, and it is still delicious when chilled with vinegar. This is what we ate in the morning last week.

Wei Lan worked for nearly an hour before bringing the finished product to the table.

Gu Chao loves spicy food, so she specially added more chili sauce.

“It’s delicious.” Gu Chao sat on the kitchen table and took a big bite with chopsticks, looking like he was gobbling it down.

Wei Lan felt happy and distressed at the same time. "Isn't there a state-owned restaurant in the county? If this happens next time, come back after eating."

 Hungry for a long time will easily lead to stomach damage. If something goes wrong with your stomach, you will suffer a lot.

Wei Lan knew the pain of stomachache very well and couldn't help nagging a few more words, "We have a lifetime to make money, so don't treat yourself badly just to save this little money."

"I know." Gu Chao laughed dumbly. "The sewing machine has been installed for you. Let's go take a look?"

"where?"

Gu Chao said calmly: "In your room."

Wei Lan stood up and was about to go back to the house to take a look. She took two steps and then stopped two steps.

Wei Lan's breathing became rapid for a moment, and she said at a loss: "Ah, grandma!"

Grandma Gu was coming from the main room. Seeing Wei Lan's nervous look, she smiled like a normal person and said, "Have you made cold skin? Do you have my share?"

Grandma Gu’s behavior was an unconscious and proactive gesture of goodwill.

Wei Lan was stunned for a moment, feeling ashamed and embarrassed.

But soon, a joyful smile appeared on her fair face.

"Yes, yes!" Wei Lan nodded quickly and turned around with a cheerful and brisk pace, "I remember grandma can't eat spicy food, so I'll put less chili sauce for grandma!"

 Gu Chao glanced at the two of them, smiled and said nothing. He reached out and pushed aside the bamboo sieve pushed to the opposite side of the table, making room for Grandma Gu to eat.

The unpleasantness just now is completely overturned now.

Grandma Gu went back to her room after eating the cold noodles. Gu Chao was responsible for washing the dishes. Wei Lan was thinking about the sewing machine and went back to her room early in the morning.

There is also a brief summary of the operation instructions in the sewing machine box, and Wei Lan carefully flipped through it.

Comparing the introduction in the manual, Wei Lan fixed the small roll of black thread given in the box to the uppermost column of the sewing machine body, then pulled out a section of the black thread, passed it all the way around the elastic and then passed through the needle.

Wei Lan had been thinking before that if Gu Chao didn't buy a sewing machine, she would try to sew by hand.

Afraid of wasting cloth, after Wei Lan learned how to make clothes from Grandma Gu, she went back to her room and rummaged through the cabinets, and finally found a pair of old clothes.
