Chapter 170: Are there really plums as big as cherries?

Mom, mom!

Where are the two phones?

Was this person really that rich?

What a mistake!

The more he thought about it, the more upset he became. If he had been nicer, he would have sold the two phones himself.

That would have been a commission of tens of dollars!

What a waste!

He frowned, looking unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.

Who was to blame? It was himself.

After buying the phone, Gu Chen and Tang Tang headed to the hospital.

It was just after 3 pm. Ji Bianran clutched the silk in his hands, his expression focused.

Just a few more stitches and he would be done.

He had finally finished.

As soon as he was discharged from the hospital, he would take the embroidery to the boss to show him.

She was so absorbed in her work that she didn't hear Gu Chen and Tang Tang enter the room, even though they were chatting and laughing.

But the latter didn't hear a thing.

Seeing that Ji Pianran was actually sitting in bed embroidering,

Gu Chen's face instantly fell, and he walked over and took the embroidery from her hand.

Ji Pianran was startled when she felt something in her hand being taken away.

She subconsciously looked over at Gu Chen's face.

Due to the fatigue of the past few days, his face was not very good.

Combined with his serious expression, the whole person could not help but carry a stern look.

This was the first time that Ji Pianran had felt a sense of fear.

She blinked her watery eyes and spoke sheepishly.

'What are you doing?'

'You just had surgery this morning. Do you know what you should do?'

Gu Chen was indeed a little angry.

She doesn't care for her body at all!

Ji Pianran nodded slightly, her lips moving as she spoke in a gentle, pleasant voice that concealed a hint of guilt.

'It doesn't hurt anymore, I was just bored and took it out to kill some time.'

Afterwards, Ji Pianran sniffed, her pretty eyes drooping at the corners, looking both innocent and pitiful.

Gu Chen looked at her for a moment, his heart softening, and the anger instantly gone.

He was only angry because he was worried.

He rubbed his eyebrows and looked at Ji Pianran helplessly.

'Daughter-in-law, listen to me. Although our family's current situation is not very good, we can still support you and your daughter. I work hard to earn money so that you don't have to worry about money.'

'If this is your hobby, I have no objection, but if you work so hard just to earn money, I won't support it.'

Isn't the reason why he works so hard to make her life easier?

If she is still suffering from money worries, then what is the point of him working so hard?

He really cares about her.

Gu Chen's face was serious as he spoke, and although his tone was flat, his attitude was extremely serious.

This attitude left Ji Bianran at a loss for words, while at the same time her heart could not help but feel warm.

He was worried about her.

Ji Bianran smiled, 'I really am bored, don't worry.'

She didn't want Gu Chen to worry about her anymore. She was not a child, and she knew how to take care of herself.

If she really felt unwell, she would not be doing embroidery.

Seeing her father scold her mother, Tang Tang pursed her lips, put her arms around her waist, and gave a heavy 'huff'.

'Mommy is sick, Daddy, don't scold her!'

She loved her father, but she also loved her mother, and she didn't like it when her father scolded her mother.

The little girl's fierce expression instantly made everyone in the hospital ward laugh.

Ma Xiaolan, who was sitting next to her, covered her mouth and laughed: 'My, this child is so cute, still trying to protect her mother.'

The old lady also followed suit: "Yes, look at those big eyes, they're really pretty, like a New Year's doll.'

The little girl in the bed opposite couldn't help but wave at Tang Tang, "Come to your sister, your sister has cherries.'

The cherries were a gift from her parents when they came to visit her in the morning.

They looked fresh, and she had just tasted them herself and they really did taste good. If it wasn't for the fact that she found Tang Tang cute and endearing, she would not have given them to her.

After all, when buying this kind of thing at this time of year, you don't need to ask to know that they won't be cheap.

Hearing about the cherries, Gu Chen put the bag of cherries she was carrying on Ji Pianran's bedside table.

'What a coincidence, I have some too, quite a lot actually. I'll go wash them and let everyone taste them.'

After saying that, she carried the bag and walked towards the water room opposite the ward.

Hearing that Gu Chen had also bought cherries, Ma Xiaolan was once again full of disappointment.

Everyone else had someone to care about, but why didn't she? Her husband was like dead, not a word from him, not even asking how she was doing, after all she was still in the hospital!

It really was inhumane.

A few minutes later, Gu Chen came in with a handful of washed cherries and gave everyone a handful.

There weren't many in each handful, just a couple.

It wasn't that Gu Chen was stingy, it was just that the cherries were really big.

Even with big hands, you can't grab many big cherries.

When she was about to take the cherries, she hurriedly refused, saying, 'Brother, don't give them to me, I can't finish them all. My mother has sent me quite a lot.'

After saying that, she pointed to the transparent plastic bag by her bed. The bag was full to the brim, and there must be two or three catties in it. It looked really a lot.

After all, her family was in the fruit business, and she was an only child.

Her parents doted on her.

Although she had not achieved financial freedom, she was free to eat fruit, and it was no exaggeration to say that she only ate expensive ones.

Gu Chen smiled and said, 'They are different varieties, try them.'

After saying that, she grabbed a few of her own cherries and placed them on her bedside table before turning back to Ji Pianran's bedside.

When the little girl saw the cherries that Gu Chen was talking about, she was momentarily stunned.

She was completely shocked.

Are these cherries?

She picked one up incredulously and looked at Gu Chen with a surprised face, 'Are you sure they're not plums?'

This one is also too big.

The red and black fruit looks exactly like a plum.

'Yes, you must have the wrong one. Cherries can't be that big.'

Ma Xiaolan was also full of curiosity.

She had never seen such big cherries before.

Afterwards, she put her nose close to them and sniffed.

The fruit did smell really good, sweet and sour, and it made her appetite grow.

The old lady also wanted to ask, but since everyone else had already done so, she didn't bother.

She sat up straight and waited for the result.

The young people chatted among themselves, and she didn't want to interrupt.

Gu Chen put his hands in the pockets of his jeans and smiled casually at everyone.

'This is a new variety, and I'm going to buy it soon. I'm absolutely sure that it's not a mistake. Are they cherries? You'll know if you try them.'

He grew his own cherries, so how could he be wrong?

The little girl looked at him doubtfully.

Without hesitation, she stuffed the fruit into her mouth. She really had never seen such a big cherry before!

With one bite.

The delicious juice instantly exploded in her mouth, with a sweet and sour taste and an indescribable fresh and refreshing aftertaste.

The fruit was extremely aromatic.

Until the flesh was swallowed, the aroma still filled her lips and teeth.

The taste was simply wonderful, and she really wanted a second bite after just one.

Compared to this, your own fruit instantly pales in comparison.

Defeated!

'This is so delicious!'

She exclaimed with her eyes wide open.

Upon hearing her say this, Ma Xiaolan hurriedly asked, 'So, is it a plum or not?'
