Chapter 1289 Tigress

It is a custom in Dachu that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, a girl’s family will give Mid-Autumn sachets to her fiancée, with the intention of praying for reunion and perfection in her life.

After Qin Sanlang heard her footsteps, a smile appeared on his lips. When he turned around and saw her and the sachet she handed him, his smile deepened, his eyes lit up, and his whole person seemed to be enveloped in a layer of gentleness. Like in the light.

"Xiaoyu." He took a few steps forward, got closer to her, looked down at her and said, "I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to come back and see you. Don't be angry."

Gu Jinli smiled, looked up at him and said, "You haven't come back to see me yet? Didn't you just come back to see me on the night of the ninth day of the Lunar New Year?"

Qin Sanlang shook his head: "That's too rushed, so it doesn't count. I have to sit down to eat with you and have a good chat."

"We can sit down and eat and chat together tonight." Gu Jinli felt a little sweet, and the smile on his lips widened, and he handed the sachet to him: "Here, it's for you, you should take a look."

Just looking at me makes you blush.

Qin Sanlang smiled, and while taking the sachet, he took her hand and sat on the stone bench under the pomelo tree, looking at the sachet she embroidered: "They are two little tigers, embroidered Very vivid... This little tiger with its mouth open and its fangs exposed to eat people is you."

Gu Jinli was startled: "How could you guess so accurately? I thought you would guess that the cute little tiger hiding behind was me."

Then he said angrily: "Do you think I am fierce and a tigress?!"

Qin Sanlang smiled and explained: "No, Xiaoyu is a good girl who is reasonable and has a gentle temper. I guessed it accurately because I know Xiaoyu's temper."

Then he said: "Since we met, you have been protecting me more often, just like the little tiger on the sachet protects the tiger behind you."

She was a very protective person and always tried her best to protect him. She made many things for him and helped him a lot.

Gu Jinli was satisfied and said again: "I'm so fierce, but you still praise me for being gentle. It's a shame you can praise me so much."

Although the words were meant to blame, there was a joyful smile on his face.

Qin Sanlang said: "Xiaoyu is not fierce at all, she is just a gentle and sensible good girl."

No one can compare to her.

Gu Jinli blushed upon hearing this, patted his cheek and said, "Since you said that, I believe you."

If Brother Cheng were here, he would definitely say angrily: Second sister, you are so thick-skinned!

Qin Sanlang laughed out loud, got closer to her, and said, "Well, our Xiaoyu is such a girl."

He was used to seeing women in the capital who talked in a roundabout way and had a lot of thoughts, so he liked Xiaoyu's temperament... Well, if Xiaoyu also talked in a roundabout way or had a lot of thoughts, then that would be no problem for him, as long as it was her, he would like her.

"Are you hungry? I've brought you moon cakes." Gu Jinli took out a bag from his waist and poured out two snow-skin moon cakes: "Eat first to fill your stomach. You can eat later. I I’ve grilled a lot of grilled fish for you, you can eat as much as you want.”

Qin Sanlang didn't like sweets very much, but as long as it was given by Gu Jinli, he took it, ate it happily, and said, "Little fish, wait a minute."

After saying that, he got up, went to his room, took out a cloth bag and a jug of water, and said, "I brought you some fruits. You can eat them. If you like them, I'll ask Dou Ke to bring back another batch."

Dou Ke's business was spread all over the country, so Qin Sanlang asked him to find some non-perishable and good-tasting fruits to bring back to Gu Jinli.

There is no way, his little fish just loves to eat fruits.

Gu Jinli looked at the red fruit in the bag and said in surprise: "It's an apple!"

Qin Sanlang was startled and said: "You know Xiao Yu? But it's not called Apple, it's called Big Red Fruit. It's similar to our Da Chu's Red Fruit, but it's several times bigger."

"This fruit comes from Dayong. It will not go bad even if it is kept for several months."

The most important thing is that the red fruit is a warm fruit. Eating it is good for women's health. It is not as cold as pears, which is not good for women.

Gu Jinli said: "The book says it's called Apple, but since it has a name, let's call it its original name of Dahongguo."

Seeing that she liked it, Qin Sanlang took an apple, washed it with water in the pot, and handed it to her: "Try it, little fish."

Gu Jinli: "It needs to be peeled."

"Ah? You want to peel it? Okay." Qin Sanlang took out a knife from his waist and peeled an apple for Gu Jinli: "Eat the small fish. The knife is clean and has never seen red."

He would not use the knife that had been used to chop people to cut up small fish.

Gu Jinli took the apple and took a bite. A long-lost sweetness filled her mouth, making her narrow her eyes with joy: "It's delicious, sweet and crispy."

He took another apple and gave it to Qin Sanlang: "You can eat it too."

Qin Sanlang looked at the apple, then at her mouth, which was even redder than the apple, and said: "No, this fruit is for Xiaoyu, I just want to taste it."

After saying that, he leaned over and kissed her mouth, tasted it briefly and then left. He looked at her and smiled and said, "Well, it's very sweet."

Gu Jinli froze and was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses... The brat attacked again!

Her face turned redder, and she punched him angrily. He didn't hide, but grabbed her fist, but his back hit the pomelo tree behind him.

The bang was quite strong.

Then a shadow fell quickly above his head. Qin Sanlang hugged Gu Jinli and used his body to block the falling thing... In fact, he could catch it, but he didn't want to catch it, so it was better to hold it.

With a bang, the thing hit the stone table, rolled from the stone table to the ground, and landed at Qin Sanlang's feet.

"It's a grapefruit." Gu Jinli bent down to pick up the grapefruit and said with disgust: "This pomelo is too small and the stem is rotten. It shouldn't be eaten."

Qin Sanlang said: "I'll open it and take a look. Maybe I can eat it. This is the first batch of fruits produced by the pomelo tree. It's the first one. You have to try it."

This pomelo tree was planted by him for himself and Xiaoyu. It symbolizes the marriage of the two and the extension of their descendants. This first fruit must be eaten.

Gu Jinli: "Then go ahead."

Qin Sanlang opened the grapefruit with a knife: "It's not bad, the pulp is not broken."

He quickly peeled off the grapefruit peel, removed pieces of pulp, picked up a piece and ate it, his eyebrows slightly furrowed and he said, "It tastes pretty good."

"Not bad?" Gu Jinli said, "Your brows are knotted, does it still taste good?"

She took a piece of grapefruit and took a bite. The sour taste almost made her vomit the grapefruit. After quickly swallowing the grapefruit, she quickly took a big bite of the apple and ate it. Then she said: "It's sour and astringent. It's unpalatable." It’s dead, don’t eat it.”

Qin Sanlang looked at her with reluctance and persistence in his eyes: "This is the first fruit of this tree, I want to eat it."

Gu Jinli was stunned for a moment, then remembered his purpose of planting this pomelo tree, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll be back in a moment, let's eat the pomelo."

After saying that, he ran home and brought a jar of ground caramel. He also took a big bowl. After breaking the grapefruit into pieces, he poured the sugar and the grapefruit into the big bowl. After stirring, he gave Qin Sanlang a spoon. , said: "Eat it, it will be sweet this time."
