Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!

Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Stop Making Trouble

“Stop it,” Gu Zhihan’s face turned instantly red, like a cooked shrimp, and after gently pushing her away, he crouched down in front of her. His slender arms tightly hugged the little girl’s thin legs, lifting her up from the ground.

“Hurry up and pick.” His forehead was sweaty, and he spoke with some effort.

He had always known that the girl was heavy, but she was even more so than he had expected…

“Okay!” Mengmeng nodded and reached out her “magic claws” towards the hanging grapes.

With Gu Zhihan acting as a human ladder, Mengmeng easily grabbed the purple grapes hanging up high, then took out the round-headed safety scissors, and snipped bunches of grapes into the basket.

Mengmeng picked and ate at the same time, after filling a basket and washing them collectively under the faucet, she began eating. After eating, she would continue picking.

After repeating this cycle a few times, not only was Gu Zhihan, who was holding her to pick grapes, tired to the point of almost vomiting blood, but even a nearby farmer was about to do the same.

She was practically eating into his profits, wasn’t she?

It was hard to imagine how a five- or six-year-old girl could have such a big appetite! @@novelbin@@

Most importantly, before leaving the vineyard, Mengmeng picked another two full baskets, carrying them on her shoulders as she walked out.

Two baskets of grapes weighed almost ten kilograms. Mengmeng carried them as if carrying two big rocks, her steps shaky and wobbly, just like a little duckling learning to walk, seemingly about to fall at any moment.

“So silly, knowing you can’t carry them, yet you still picked so many!” Gu Zhihan followed behind with a stern face, his voice cold as he approached.

The little boy stepped forward, directly took the two baskets of grapes from her hands, and placed them in his arms to lighten her load.

“Because I knew my husband would help me carry them!” Mengmeng looked at his actions, showing an expression that said ‘I guessed as much’.

“Husband, to express my deep gratitude to you, I’ve decided…” Mengmeng began, then suddenly stopped speaking and tiptoed, “to give you a kiss!”

As soon as the words fell, her little lips touched his before Gu Zhihan could react.

“However, just one kiss seems not enough to fully express the gratitude inside me, let’s do it one more time!”

Then, it was another big “smack”!

Gu Zhihan’s face kept burning up, his dark eyes clearly reflecting the scene of the little girl pouting and kissing him.

The September sun was blazing, but it was nothing compared to the heat of her lips.

“Who asked for your thanks.”

After a long pause, Gu Zhihan finally managed a few words, pushed her away, and walked towards the outside of the vineyard with a face that was both black and red.

If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have helped her with the grapes!!

But in the end, he didn’t throw the two baskets of grapes back at the little girl to carry them herself.

Just as they left the vineyard, Teacher Tao came over, smiling, and asked them, “Mengmeng, Gu Zhihan, have you filled up with grapes?”

“Yes!” Mengmeng nodded, pointing at the baskets in Gu Zhihan’s arms, and then patting her stomach, said, “Here, and here are both full.”

Teacher Tao couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “Alright, you guys hang around here for a bit, remember not to wander too far, and don’t forget to gather at the bamboo hut up front to have lunch together.”

“Okay.”

After speaking, Mengmeng pulled Gu Zhihan to start walking around the farm stay.

The farm stay had not only orchards but also a variety of vegetable sheds, as well as mountains and rivers.

On the clear surface of the lake, fishermen were calling out non-stop, sunlight sparkling on the water as if sprinkled with pearls, nearby, cows grazed on the grass.

It was indeed a picturesque scene.

However, there was a little one ready to spoil the mood…

“Husband, can we eat everything here at the farm stay?” Mengmeng asked with her big eyes blinking.

“Technically, yes,” Gu Zhihan nodded, then added, “as long as you have the money to pay.”

“Can we eat those then?” Mengmeng pointed at the cows grazing by the lake, licking her lips as if she could rush over and take a bite at any moment.

She had never tried beef before!!!
