On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Tan Man woke up early, and Lai sent a WeChat message to Gu Mochen in bed, asking where they were going to play today. After waiting for about ten minutes, the other party replied and took Xiaobei to the suburban orchard to pick strawberry.

Tan Man was a little surprised. She didn't expect him to be an outsider, but he looked like a local when he came here. He could even think of a place like Strawberry Garden, so he didn't bother them anymore.

In the morning, she accompanied Tan Weiguo to the market to buy vegetables, and Aunt Xu came over from her house as usual, and the three of them cooked together.

During lunch, Tan Weiguo decided to take a walk in the Humble Administrator's Garden in the afternoon. He said that he hadn't been there for many years. Upon hearing this, Tan Man put down his chopsticks and said:
"Another day, my high school classmates have a small gathering this afternoon, and I won't come back for dinner tonight."

She lied without blushing, and Tan Weiguo didn't suspect it, so he gave up on the trip to the Humble Administrator's Garden.

At about five o'clock, she received a WeChat message from Gu Mochen:
"I'm downstairs at your house."

Tan Man, who had already changed her clothes and put on makeup, trotted downstairs all the way. The black Audi was parked outside the community with double flashing lights. Gu Mochen saw her from a distance, so he got out of the car first, went around and opened it on the other side. Passenger's door.

Today's Gu Mochen is wearing a light gray casual hooded jacket, a pair of dark blue slim-fit jeans, and a black pullover sweater inside the jacket. His overall style is much softer and more friendly than usual.Coincidentally, Tan Man is also dressed in a similar jacket and jeans today. At first glance, it looks a bit like a couple's outfit.

As soon as Tan Man met, she noticed it, and said with a smile: "You look so handsome today, I almost forgot that you are already thirty years old."

Gu Mochen knew that she was doing it on purpose, he smiled without saying a word, and motioned her to get in the car.

As soon as she got in the car, Tan Man pinched Xiaobei's face in the back row and said, "I heard you went to pick strawberries today, was it fun?"

Gu Zhoubei took off his down jacket at the moment, and only wore a sweater. His hair was still sweaty, obviously having a good time.

"Hmm!" He pointed to a box of exquisitely packaged fruit bowls next to him, "This is for you, and I picked it all."

"Thank you!" She turned to Gu Mochen, "Why did you suddenly think of picking strawberries?"

"That strawberry garden was opened by a roommate of mine when I was an undergraduate and his friend. It not only grows strawberries, it is actually a farm, and there are restaurants in it. I have been invited several times and I was not free. This time it was just right, so I went. "As he spoke, he stared at the phone and set up a navigation.

"Then are we going to that farm for dinner later?" Seeing that he knew the itinerary well, Tan asked.

"Well, or do you want to eat something else?" He turned his head to look at her.

Tan Man shook her head: "I have no idea, so I'll go there."

Where to eat and what to eat are the most difficult questions for her. Every time she goes out with Qiao Ning, both of them have to struggle with it for a long time, so she wants to find a boyfriend who can make decisions and make up his mind. Just eat by yourself.

The car walked according to the navigation for more than half an hour, and came to a farm on the outskirts of the city.

Tan Man suddenly felt that a local who had lived in Suzhou for nearly 20 years was no match for a foreigner. She had never been to the area where the farm was located. Although the location was remote, it did not affect business at all. During the period, there were still many cars parked on the parking lot at the entrance, and there was a lot of people inside.

The farm covers a large area and is mainly decorated with bamboo. There are halls and private rooms. It looks clean and tidy. Because of the relationship with the Chinese New Year, a lot of small lanterns and neon lights are also decorated according to the occasion, making it more lively.

Tan Man led Xiao Bei to follow Gu Mochen. As soon as they entered the hall, the waiter asked and took them to a private room.

Before entering the door, Tan Man tugged on Gu Mochen's sleeve, and asked embarrassingly, "Is there no one else this time?"

Gu Mochen thought for a while, suddenly understood, and said with a smile: "This time there is really no one else."

She was once bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of well ropes. Last time, she was fooled by him to have dinner with a group of people for no reason, and was harassed for a long time. Is it the farm opened by your college classmate? He won't show up?"

Gu Mochen put his arms around her shoulders, and led her into the room: "Today, on the second day of the new year, I am accompanying my wife back to her natal home, so I can't come here, don't worry."

At this time, a middle-aged woman walked in with a smile: "Mr. Gu, right? Jiang Bo has already told me that he wants me to treat you well. He has already ordered dishes for you, all of which are our signature dishes." style, he said, it’s delicious, if you don’t have enough, order more, and it will be credited to his account.”

Gu Mochen nodded to her politely: "Then I will trouble you, Madam Boss."

When the proprietress closed the door, Tan Man sighed:
"This kind of 'confidant in the sea, neighbors at the end of the world' is really good. Although my university is not as good as yours, it is still ranked first in the country. Why don't I have this kind of 'you can eat whatever you want, and put it in my account' Where are your friends?"

"Who was teasing me just now that I'm thirty plus, huh?" Gu Mochen poured her tea, with a man's complacency in his eyes, "This is the benefit of thirty plus."

"Man with 31 flowers, I'm just complimenting you." Tan Man winked at him with a flattering and obedient look. Of course she didn't realize that this expression, to him, was a discharge.

And Gu Mochen was obviously shocked, looking at the little face with red lips and white teeth in front of him, he was dazed for a while, for a second, he really wanted to drag her here regardless, whatever he wanted to do.

He swallowed, diverted his attention, and poured some boiling water into Xiaobei's cup.

"Are all your college classmates so good?" Tan Man asked.

"All?" He raised his brows lightly, "You just met a few of my college classmates and said that."

Tan Man counted plausibly: "Your partner Xiao Zhi, that legal aid lawyer Chen Rui, and now this Jiang Bo who is the boss behind the scenes, and moreover, it's you." After she finished speaking, she thought of What, said with a smirk, "Oh, there is another one, who is paired with your talented scholar and beautiful woman, your confidante Ye Chen."

In fact, after returning from Shanghai that day, Tan Man was so curious that she deliberately raped Ye Chen on the Internet, and found out that Ye Chen was also a well-known writer.

"Hearing what you said, I found that my old classmates seem to be doing well."

Gu Mochen took a sip of tea calmly, avoiding her trap properly.

Tan Man narrowed her eyes, then suddenly pouted her mouth and snorted, "You admitted it!"

He laughed: "Admit what?"

"Admit that she is your confidante."

Xiao Bei, who was sitting by the side playing with Gu Mochen's phone, suddenly raised his head and interjected, "Manman, what is a confidante?"

"Let your brother explain it to you, he has experience!"

Gu Zhoubei rolled his eyes, and stared at his brother next to him.

Gu Mochen chuckled deliberately, and really explained: "A confidante, in short, is a very good female friend."

Gu Zhoubei seemed to understand, he became interested, and then lowered his head and continued to play with the phone.

Gu Mochen's eyes returned to her face, his small mouth was still slightly pouted, he knew she was doing it on purpose, but he still coaxed patiently: "I said before, she is nothing, don't think about it."

While talking, there was a knock on the door, and all the pre-ordered dishes were served at one time, with all the colors, flavors and tastes. Even in the greasy Chinese New Year, looking at it makes people appetite.

"What do you and Dad usually do during Chinese New Year?" He asked while eating.

"Our family has nothing special, and we don't have many relatives, so every New Year's Eve is basically the same as usual. The two of us ate and slept, slept and ate, and occasionally walked around." She took a sip of soup, "How about you? "

He smiled lightly: "Basically, I'm usually busy all day long. Finally, it's Chinese New Year and I only have a few days of leisure. I will take Xiaobei out for a vacation, but it's just two of us."

I don't know why, every time he said these lightly, she always wanted to hug him, and Xiaobei again. Although she was also unfortunate, she had enjoyed 17 years of happy family life, but they seemed to have been All are defective.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Gu Mochen glanced at her and read her thoughts: "But this year, it's a lot more lively."

Tan Man smiled brightly, and scooped a spoonful of shrimp and egg custard into Xiaobei's bowl: "Eating this egg custard, I suddenly thought of something."

"what's up?"

"Li Zhu called me a few years ago." She looked up at him, "He said, you found him a job as a warehouse manager, and you said you wanted to send you local eggs. Tell him that I am not in Shanghai, and he will give it to you when I come back in the next year."

Gu Mochen hooked the corners of his mouth: "He's too polite, why don't you help me refuse?"

"At that time, I wasn't someone of yours, so how could I make a decision for you." Tan Man said with a smile, "By the way, why did you suddenly want to introduce him to a job?"

"In the case of Xiaoqin's sexual assault, his wife helped pay the medical bills when she fainted during pregnancy, and the time the doctor made a fuss. I know you really want to help him, but it seems that you just want to find an excuse to give someone money?"

"I feel sorry for Xiaoqin. She is the first class student I lead after graduation. I hope she can receive education smoothly. Financial difficulties are a big problem for their family. I don't know how to help other than giving money, but You seem to stop me every time."

"No matter how the economy is, it can be seen that he is a strong man. If you give money, it may embarrass people?"

"But I always give money under natural circumstances." She quibbled.

Gu Mochen smiled wryly and shook his head: "I'm a man, I understand what he will think, besides, you paid for him once, can you help him solve other financial problems in the future?"

She pursed her lips, somewhat frustrated: "Of course I know that it is better to give people fish than to give them fish, but I am not as powerful as you."

He smiled and picked a piece of beef for her: "So, tell me about the labor-intensive things in the future, and let me, a man in my thirties, do it for you."

Tan Man suddenly thought of a sentence,

A boyfriend is the one who can give you a hug and tell you that I am here and let me come when you need it.
