Marry first then love, uncle, I just came of age with a pitiful score
Si Mian thought that according to Gu Mo's temperament, he would definitely not play with these things. Tonight must be a big kill in all directions. Si Mian was ambitious and determined.
But when they really started playing, Si Mian discovered that her husband was indeed a master. Damn, he had won several hundred yuan from her already. She cried with a sad face, "If you win again, I'll be bankrupt."
"Hey, his money isn't yours, if it's not enough just ask him for more." Lü Qingyan took the money in front of Gu Mo and put it in front of her, "See, now we have money, let's continue playing."
Gu Mo was speechless, are there such people? Fighting like this, what's the point of having any strength at all, no benefits whatsoever.
Now my wife and mother-in-law are of one mind, and Sima Chong's mother gave a big thumbs up.
Lü Qingyan actually still has some feelings, since that woman broke up with Gu Mo, Gu Mo has been immersed in work and doesn't even have the idea of getting married. At that time, she had said it many times, but still didn't want to be friends or get married.
She's almost going bald with worry, he's already twenty-nine and still doesn't have a girlfriend. She raised such an excellent son for the old man, not to let him end up lonely in his old age.
So she was very resentful of Qiao Si, that woman who had an affair with another man behind Gu Mo's back, fortunately this woman didn't become her daughter-in-law.
Now that Gu Mo is finally married, he often runs home and doesn't just work except for eating, drinking, and going to the bathroom. Lu Qingyan feels very relieved in her heart.
It's really different after getting married.
Now the whole family lives together, it's really lively, unlike before, Gu Mo lived outside, Gu Xi liked to run outside, and when he came back home, the house was very quiet.
Now Lü Qingyan hopes they can stay at home forever, lively and bustling, how great it would be.
"Mom, you win!" exclaimed Sima excitedly.
"Really? Take the money!" Lü Qingyan's eyes lit up, her hands spread wide, all pointing at Gu Mo.
He gave back the money he lost, but Lv Qingyan's hand still didn't let go. "Mianmian is your wife, she lost, so you should pay too."
Cui Mian nodded in agreement beside her, still thinking that her mother-in-law was right.
"You guys are like this, I won't play anymore" obviously means two people teamed up to win against one person.
"Gu Mo, a real man, how can you say you won't play and then not play? Besides, even if you don't want to play, give me the money first and then we'll talk, don't think about taking advantage of the situation."
"It's like that" Si Mian stood on Lü Qingyan's side, "Hurry up and give it"
Gu Mo handed the money to Lü Qingyan with a dark face, and as soon as she took it, she immediately gave it to Si Mian. "Come on, Mianmian, this is your mother-in-law's pocket money for you, take it."
Mom, this is taking advantage of someone's good intentions for your own benefit.
"Thank you, grandma." Si Mian was overjoyed.
Lü Qingyan made an "OK" gesture to Si Mian, and the two of them even high-fived in front of Gu Mo, who was speechless. This mother-in-law and daughter-in-law duo were simply a mess.
Just after playing cards, Gu Qi came back, but his face didn't look too good. Lü Qingyan asked with concern, "Old master, what's wrong? Did you encounter something unpleasant?"
"Hey, nowadays young people are really something. Flash marriage and flash divorce. Today I met up with a few old friends, one of whose son is getting divorced from his wife, and they've only been married for less than a month."
"It's so fast" Fortunately, Gu Mo and Mianmian look good now, they shouldn't make a joke out of this.
"This is still not the worst, the worst is that Old Li's daughter-in-law insists on having 50% of Old Li's son's property, otherwise she won't leave even if you beat her to death"
"This can't be a fake marriage, it's even acted out on TV" Lü Qingyan said in surprise.
"Who knows, it's not my place to say anything about other people's business, just listen and that's all. When Old Li's son got married, I went too, took a glance at his daughter-in-law from afar, didn't have a good impression of her back then, thought she looked too calculating, didn't expect things would turn out like this in just one month, it's become a joke"
"Dad, have some tea." The clever and obedient servant brings over a cup of tea.
"Ah, good girl," Gu Qi smiled slightly, still thinking that his own wife was the best, with a clean gaze. "Mianmian, how's work going lately?"
"Not bad"
"That's good, our family doesn't have the tradition that once married, the daughter-in-law must stay at home as a housewife, so, when there's a good opportunity, grab it. Being young is about striving and it's a good thing."
"Thanks"
"But, after all, one's body is the capital of revolution. Next time I have a holiday, I'll go with Dad to the square to exercise."
No way, Si Mian is so ridiculous, Grandfather and Gu Mo are indeed father and son.
"Okay, I'll go with Dad to the square when I'm on vacation."
It's a good thing I have work tomorrow, yay.
Back in the room, Si Mian asked seriously, "Gu Uncle, with Dad's memory, shouldn't he have forgotten about this by Saturday?"
"You'll know if you try"
It will definitely be forgotten, and silently pray for it.
On Saturday, Si Mian was still half asleep when she heard someone knocking on the door. She didn't want to get up and pulled the quilt over herself, kicking him and saying, "Uncle Gu, go open the door, who is it so early?"
Gu Mo put on his pajamas and went to open the door, Gu Qi was already standing at the door wearing sportswear, "Gu Mo, where's your wife? It's already 6 o'clock, why isn't she getting up?"
"Dad, you go down and sit for a while, she'll come find you later"
"Hurry up, the air is good in the morning," said Gu Qi, and then he went downstairs.
Gu Mo went back, stretched out his hand and shook her, "Mian Mian, Dad is waiting for you downstairs, hurry up"
"No way, he actually remembers, I don't want to go." Rarely able to sleep in, she was called to get up so early, she's going crazy.
"You didn't want to go, you should have refused from the start, who told you to agree"
"I was just going along with what Dad said, I didn't think he'd actually believe me. I'm so sleepy, I want to go to bed." Siwen refused to get up, "Uncle Gu, can you tell Dad that I don't feel well and then I won't have to go?"
Gu Mo picked her up and cooed softly, "If you're really not feeling well, I told Dad when he knocked on the door earlier. If I say it again now, Dad definitely won't believe me. Be good, just for today, if Dad comes to call you again tomorrow, I'll tell him you're not feeling well."
Si Mian clung to Gu Mo, refusing to get out of bed. "It's only six o'clock, the chickens haven't even crowed yet! You've been working for five days straight, getting up early every day. I finally got a Saturday off and you're making me get up this early? No way!"
She was originally a sleepyhead and had been working overtime for the past week, so Gu Mo could understand.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, buried her head in his shoulder, and coquettishly said, "Husband, I don't want to go, I don't want to go, I want to sleep."
This girl, whenever she has something to ask of him, will call him "old man".
Gu Mo felt helpless, he didn't want her to go exercise either, and the weather was so cold, what if she caught a cold? But he also knew his father's temper, very stubborn, if Su Mian didn't go, he would definitely get angry, his father hated people who didn't keep their promises.
"Okay, just for a day, we'll go exercise and then come back to sleep, okay?" Gu Mo picked her up and took her to the bathroom, then wrung out a hot towel to wash her face.
"I don't want to" she shook her head repeatedly, "it's so cold outside, I don't want to run, I don't want to"
She is most afraid of cold, and she still has to go out for exercise when it's so cold, this is simply taking her life.
"So from now on, be smart and if you don't want to go, just say so. Dad won't get angry. But if you agree to go and then don't, Dad will get angry, and besides, he's waiting for you downstairs."
This girl hasn't figured out her father's temperament yet, but it's not her fault either. It'll come with time, and she'll get to know him better as they spend more time together.
"Or I'll accompany you to the square, how about that?" Gu Mo said patiently.
He grumbled with his mouth shut, knowing she had compromised, quickly squeezed toothpaste for her and then found a very thick set of clothes for her.
"Uncle Gu, you'd better not go, just sleep instead." He also worked overtime last night and only fell asleep at dawn. Si Mian couldn't bear to have him accompany her either.
"You really don't need me to accompany you"
"It's okay"
She finished dressing and walked out of the room. Gu Mo stood at the stairs, looking at them. Gu Qi glanced at his own son, "I'm not going to sell your wife, why are you so worried?"
"I'm going out." The sleepy driver woke up a bit.
Gu Qi liked to practice swordplay and took out a thing that looked like an ancient Shangfang treasure sword when he went out. Si Mian borrowed it for research.
When I went there, some people were already exercising, most of them were old men, but their spirits were good.
"Old Guo, who is this? They look really cute!"
"My daughter-in-law, how is she? Not bad, right?" Gu Qi's face was filled with pride.
"Ah, good, good, you have a keen eye."
"Softly, come and call someone, this is Grandpa Zhang, this is Grandpa Li..."
He speaks sweet words, one "grandpa" after another, flattering people into a state of utmost delight.
…..
As the year-end approaches, Gu Mo gets busier with various meetings non-stop. However late it is, he will return home to sleep and get up early again the next day.
She was heartbroken but there's nothing she could do, after all, she didn't understand politics and couldn't help him, so she could only learn from her mother-in-law to make soup for him to nourish himself.
However, Gu Mo recently brought back a set of undergraduate mock exams for Si Wei, "I'll time you, two and a half hours later I'll come collect the papers, let's see what level you've actually reached"
"No way" Si Mian went crazy.
"Hurry up, no peeking at the book, I'll be watching you." Gu Mo sat on the bed, picked up those books and flipped through them. Although it had been many years since he last touched these books, now that he looked at them again, they didn't seem difficult at all, so simple.
Although his face was bitter and helpless, he could only resign himself to doing it. Gu Dabo wasn't joking around.
On his way, Gu Xi walked past the door and saw her bowing her head to write the test paper. "Huh? Didn't you graduate? Why are you still doing a test?"
"She wants to take the self-taught undergraduate exam, and I'm currently testing whether her scores can get her in"
Si Mian raised his head and gave Gu Xi a bitter smile.
"Sister-in-law, come on, you can do it," Gu Xi said with a smile.
Alas, she knew what kind of material she was made of, so he didn't need to comfort her anymore.
When writing in English, Gu Mo walked over and saw that she hadn't written a single word, frowning and saying, "Just make something up, you can't leave it blank during the exam."
"Oh" The student secretly took the previous sentence and pieced together a few sentences in his composition.
"It's time" Gu Mo walked over to collect the scroll, Si Mian hastily wrote, "I still have a bit left unwritten"
"It's not finished, but don't write anymore. Who will give you extra time during the exam? Alright, alright." Gu Mo forcibly took it away and sat down to grade.
Xiao Mian's heart was racing with anxiety, God bless me, I don't need a high score, just passing with 60 points is fine, all-powerful god, please grant my wish!!
If she doesn't score more than sixty points, her future will be tough, Gu Mo will definitely stare at her while studying.
Gu Mo looked at her as if nothing was wrong, "Don't keep hovering around me, go and get me a glass of water."
"Oh" The servant girl carefully poured water and then respectfully placed it in front of him, "Husband, the water is here."
Seeing him finish grading a paper, Si Mian wondered how many points he got. Gu Mo put the graded paper at the bottom and said, "Don't look yet, let's talk about it later."
What did he mean? Did he want to wait for the next batch to denounce her?
The more she thought about it, the scarier it became. Cui Mian quietly walked to Gu Mo's back, her head stretched out long, just wanting to sneak a peek.
"Gu Mo turned around and looked at her, 'Go play downstairs'"
"I'll accompany you" Si Mian didn't want to leave.
"Hurry up"
Xiāo Mián reluctantly went downstairs, sat on the sofa, couldn't focus on watching TV, and kept glancing upstairs from time to time.
Not long after, Gu Mo handed her a stack of papers downstairs and said, "Take a look yourself, then you'll know where your level is."
Si Mian quickly took over and when he saw the results, he was instantly stunned on the spot, cold sweat dripping down.
Chinese is her strongest subject and she scored 59 points, English 32 points, mathematics 29 points, the rest are over 40 points.
"Give yourself an evaluation." Gu Mo sat down.
Xia Mian also felt a bit embarrassed, she pouted and said with a wronged expression, "My grades were originally not good, being able to self-study to this extent is already very good"
Gu Mengbai gave her a glance and scolded, "You're quite reasonable, even if you don't understand English, with so many multiple-choice questions, you can't just guess and get at least 32 points." He picked up her English test paper and pointed to that section, "Who told you to fill in the same answer for all of them? If it were a real exam, they would all be counted as zero points."
At this time, you must be sincere in your attitude, admit your mistakes and show your determination, only then will you suffer less.
"Uncle Gu, I know you're not satisfied with this time's results, but don't worry, I'll work even harder to study and absolutely won't disappoint you again."
"This isn't about me losing or not losing hope, it's about your future and destiny. If you think it's pointless yourself, then I don't need to worry so much either."
"I know, I will study hard and strive to get into a undergraduate program." His attitude was extremely sincere.
Gu Mo saw through the girl's sinister intentions at a glance, pulled her over and said, "Don't think I don't know what tricks you're playing. I'm not buying it. Next month, I'll prepare another set of mock exam papers for you. If you still perform so poorly, just wait and see how I'll deal with you."
Gu Qi followed Gu Xi downstairs, and Si Mian wanted to quickly hide the test paper, but Gu Xi had already seen it. "Hey, are you done with the exam? Sister-in-law, how many points did you get? Is it very good?"
Si Mianqian smiled slightly and quickly put away the scroll, if Dad saw it, he would be in trouble.
"What score did you get? What's going on?" Gu Qi asked.
