Wuxin took out the food from the bamboo basket and placed it one by one on the small table. Follow current novels on NovᴇlFire(.)nᴇt
The chicken and fish were raised in the space, and the vegetables were also picked from there. This is why Gu Nian didn’t allow her family to help this time.
Because she really couldn’t explain the origin of these things to them.
The items produced in the space naturally tasted great, and with some thought put into the cooking, these ordinary dishes released an enticing aroma as soon as they were served, along with their excellent color.
Nan Jin Yu raised an eyebrow slightly without a word, took the chopsticks, picked up some food, and put it into his mouth. The next moment, his eyes lit up.
"How is it? Is it good?" Looking at that handsome face, Gu Nian surprisingly felt nervous, eager to receive approval from others.
Nan Jin Yu nodded with a smile and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Under Wuxin’s incredulous gaze, Gu Nian shook her head, "I... I’ll eat when I get home later."
Without asking for Gu Nian’s opinion, Nan Jin Yu instructed Wuxin, "Bring another set of bowl and chopsticks."
"No... no need, Young Master Nan, you eat by yourself. I have food left at home," Gu Nian hurriedly said.
However, Nan Jin Yu put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "Miss Gu didn’t come over just to bring me food, did you?"
Gu Nian was unsure if the other party would agree, so she was inevitably a bit nervous. After some hesitation, she spoke frankly, "There’s one more small favor I’d like to ask of Young Master Nan."
At this moment, Wuxin happened to bring the bowl and chopsticks and placed them in front of Gu Nian.
After thanking him, Gu Nian continued to speak to Nan Jin Yu, "I love the books Young Master Nan gave me, but I can’t read the characters, so I’d like to ask if Young Master Nan could teach me. Would that be possible?"
There are two more villages near Taohua Village, but no one has heard of any village producing a scholar.
So, in the short term, if Gu Nian wanted to learn to read and write, she could only turn to Nan Jin Yu, who was the closest.
Nan Jin Yu, as if already anticipating it, showed no surprise and said, "Of course, just that, reading and writing can be quite tiring. The question is whether Miss Gu has the endurance for it?"
Gu Nian exhaled deeply, "Thank you, Young Master Nan, I will work hard."
"Eat," Nan Jin Yu said.
What surprised Gu Nian was how casually Nan Jin Yu agreed from start to finish without mentioning any other conditions.
And it made her unable to figure out his intentions.
Throughout the meal, Gu Nian was absent-minded, but Nan Jin Yu surprisingly had a good appetite.
After Gu Nian left, Wuxin tentatively asked Nan Jin Yu, "Master, do you plan to teach Miss Gu to read yourself? Or... should we find a tutor?"
Nan Jin Yu glanced at him, which made him feel nervous and anxious.
It wasn’t until Nan Jin Yu left the room that Wuxin wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
The master’s thoughts are truly becoming harder to predict!
Then, Nan Jin Yu’s voice echoed, "Go find some introductory books."
Although Nan Jin Yu’s collection of books was substantial, they were not suitable for beginner literacy education.
In truth, even he hadn’t expected that he would be willing to take on the role of a tutor, especially teaching a young woman.
However, the girl’s smile was very contagious. Thinking of the days when he could often see her smiling, he felt it would be very interesting.
When Gu Nian was halfway home, raindrops began to fall.
She quickly ran back home, and just as she stepped inside, a downpour started.
Mrs. Jiang happened to see her running in and said, "I was just saying it was going to rain soon. Blame your second brother for not waiting for you. Luckily, luckily, you didn’t get caught in the rain."
