Chapter 4 I don't care!
On the weekend, Hu Xiaoyu got up early and started knocking on Gu Xixia's door.
Bang bang bang.
"Get up quickly, we're going to look at houses today!"
Click, the door opened, and Gu Xixia's messy hair still couldn't hide her allure, but her expression was somewhat unpleasant.
After all, she had a bad temper when she woke up, and Hu Xiaoyu knew that very well.
"Why are you glaring at me? Hurry up and wash up and get out of here."
When I arrived at the bathroom, the toothpaste had already been squeezed out.
There were sounds of breakfast preparation coming from the kitchen. Gu Xixia quickly washed her face, and by the time she finished washing up, breakfast was already ready.
I had braised noodles with two fried eggs and a glass of fresh milk.
After finishing breakfast, Gu Xixia changed into a white shirt and black silk pants, then put on a pair of black sneakers.
Standing at the door, she bit her hair tie, raised her hand to the back of her head, and tied her hair up.
Out of the corner of her eye, she watched Hu Xiaoyu pack his travel essentials into his backpack, completely oblivious to her own good looks.
If it were a normal man living with her, with a little guidance, they would probably have sex right at the door.
But he didn't care at all, and was even confused because he couldn't find a parasol.
"I put it away in the TV cabinet."
"Why didn't you say so earlier..."
Amidst their complaints, the two, having finished getting ready, headed out.
After arriving at the parking lot and getting into Gu Xixia's red sports car, Hu Xiaoyu sighed.
"I shouldn't have bought you this car in the first place."
Why?
"You're so tall, so rich, and so beautiful, any man would hesitate to approach you..."
"Oh..."
With a cold laugh, Gu Xixia leaned back in her chair, took out her phone, and started navigating.
The car set off and the two soon arrived at the suburbs where the first courtyard was located.
The courtyard isn't big, only a little over 300 square meters, facing the road. The price is okay, but...
She looked at the men on the street, dressed in old clothes, but with their eyes fixed on Gu Xixia.
It wasn't that Hu Xiaoyu was judging people by their appearance, but these guys just didn't look like good people.
"Next."
Gu Xixia, who was observing the plants in the courtyard, looked at Hu Xiaoyu with surprise upon hearing this.
Why?
"This place is not safe."
"Unsafe?"
With you here, where is there any place that isn't safe?
She approached him with a puzzled look, then looked at the men around her who were staring intently at her.
A sense of joy welled up inside her, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on her lips.
"Then let's choose another one."
Although I know he's not possessive of food or jealous, he's just worried about my safety.
But I couldn't stop being happy.
Arriving at the next courtyard, looking at the dilapidated gate, Hu Xiaoyu didn't even have the thought of going in.
Finally, in the afternoon, they found a courtyard that was backed by mountains and forests and faced a small river.
It has a large area and a front and back yard, but the location is relatively remote, almost a 45-minute drive from Rongcheng University of Science and Technology.
"That's fine."
"Um?"
"I see you're quite satisfied, so I won't choose anything else."
"The location isn't good; it will be very inconvenient for you to get to work."
"I have a car, so I just need to get up early."
"That's the logic..."
"Then pay."
Watching Gu Xixia already going through the procedures with the agent and the homeowner, Hu Xiaoyu took out his card and placed it on the table, ignoring the group's discussion and continuing to wander around the area.
We need to plan the area in advance, since we'll be raising chickens and ducks.
"Ms. Gu, is that your younger brother?"
"no."
"Oh~"
Seeing the homeowner and the real estate agent's expressions of "I see," Gu Xixia pursed her lips.
I felt a little happy, even though I knew this happiness shouldn't be there because it was fake, but I still couldn't help it.
After Hu Xiaoyu finished surveying the surrounding environment and determined the division of the area, Gu Xixia had already signed the contract.
There was no haggling, and in fact, the homeowner even paid extra to expedite the process, so everything went smoothly between the homeowner and the agent.
"The agency will mail the contract to my home three days later."
As Gu Xixia spoke, Hu Xiaoyu gazed at the old house with its tiled roof.
"Okay, we'll use the backyard to raise chickens and ducks, and leave the front yard as is. You can add some flowers and greenery as you see fit. We can also invite colleagues over for a barbecue sometime."
"Your grandfather is here, but he won't be so bored as to wander around aimlessly."
"it is good."
"I just walked around the room a few times. Some parts are quite old and need some main materials replaced and maintenance. Don't you know a professor of ancient architecture? Ask him about this."
"Um."
"Shall we go back then?"
"Let's wander around and get familiar with the area."
"Alright."
Upon arriving at the entrance, the children catching fish on the riverbank looked at the two people on the shore, especially the tall and slender Gu Xixia.
The shirtless boys immediately hid shyly in the water, while the girls looked at the two with amazement.
Gu Xixia glanced down at Hu Xiaoyu beside her and spoke softly.
"You can also come here to go fishing occasionally."
"Hmm, the water quality is alright, there should be quite a few fish."
"Will there be river shrimp?"
"I don't know, we'll see when the time comes. If there are any, I'll set some in a cage and catch them for you to stir-fry into small shrimp."
As I strolled leisurely, I suddenly heard a rustling sound from the roadside bushes.
Looking down, Gu Xixia saw a garland snake pop out of its shell and stare at Hu Xiaoyu; her narrow eyes were filled with frustration.
"I want to use insect repellent powder, snake repellent powder, powder that repels everything!"
Hu Xiaoyu scratched his head awkwardly.
"There's nothing we can do about it; zombies just attract these kinds of things."
"I don't care!"
"Alright, alright, whatever you say..."
Hu Xiaoyu grabbed the snake by the head and threw it away, pouting slightly in discomfort.
Zombies are like this: mosquitoes won't bite them, but evil creatures like snakes will instinctively approach them.
From childhood to adulthood, Gu Xixia had no idea how many times snakes had blocked her path because she was with him.
At the same time, perhaps because she was influenced by Hu Xiaoyu's aura, Gu Xixia's camping trip after graduating from high school even attracted a bunch of snakes and scorpions to surround her tent.
So much so that after that camping trip, her high school classmates called her a femme fatale for a long time.
Back at her home in the city, Gu Xixia immediately contacted her classmate and found some renovation workers to repair the old house.
Normally, it would have been easy to find some villagers nearby to do this, but Gu Xixia thought about it and decided not to do so.
Because she needed to make certain adjustments to the room layout, at the very least, she couldn't separate Hu Xiaoyu's room from hers; she had to ensure that they were right next to each other.
Hu Xiaoyu was also busy and started looking for suitable seedlings online.
This is a serious matter concerning meals, and we cannot be careless in the slightest.
After much deliberation, I finally decided to buy a batch of Youxian ducks to try. After all, they are famous for their blood-stir-frying method, so the blood shouldn't be too bad.
On the sofa, Gu Xixia glanced at Hu Xiaoyu, who was searching on his phone, and stretched out her foot to press down on his thigh.
"Should we conduct a control experiment?"
"Hmm...we can do it. We'll see which method of raising ducks produces the best-tasting blood."
"Do you need professional breeding equipment?"
"There's no need to be so meticulous. As long as you can survive on what you eat, that's enough."
"it is good."
