"Tch, what business can you possibly have?" Just a little girl, "Little sister, let me advise you again, this isnât a place for someone like you, hurry up and go back."
"Exactly, this is the military." Liu Xiaolian echoed.
"What? Werenât you looking for me?" Gu Linglingâs almond eyes widened as she looked strangely at the group.
"Chuckle," Liu Xiaoqin laughed unkindly, "Looking for you? Really a joke, why would we be looking for you?"
Gu Lingling pointed at the red paper on the table.
"You wouldnât be here to ask for couplets too, would you?" Liu Xiaoqin looked at Gu Lingling in surprise, as if saying, how could you, a little girl, be so bold?
"The old gentleman isnât here. Even if he were, not just any cat or dog can ask him to write something and heâll do it." Liu Xiaoqin said arrogantly.
Liu Qiao Lian also covered her mouth with a laugh, "I thought she was a family member from somewhere; turns out she came from the village."
Gu Lingling glanced at her, the womanâs clothes were patched several times, and she held a dirty little girl in her arms. The words she spoke were so disdainful of rural people.
Yet she forgot, she herself is also from the countryside.
"Mr. Gu... youâve returned." The young soldier who was helping ran over, glancing at the several ladies in the room, he smiled and said, "Itâs like this, these ladies also want Mr. Gu to help write a few couplets. Do you think thatâs okay?"
He had just met these ladies at the door.
"What? Who did you say to write the couplets?" Liu Xiaoqin said sharply.
"Xiao Wang, the person our Captain invited to write the couplets, isnât it this young lady in front of us?" Mo Hongying was also surprised, pointing at Gu Lingling.
"Yes, itâs this Mr. Gu." Xiao Wang blushed and scratched the back of his head, "Donât underestimate Mr. Gu because of her young age, sheâs really skilled at writing."
"Haha, now this is really..." Mo Hongying laughed, at a loss for words.
Watching Liu Xiaoqinâs swelling red face, she inexplicably felt satisfied.
"Impossible." Liu Xiaoqin shook her head, "How could a little girl like her possibly write so beautifully?"
"Did the Captain ask you to fool us?" Liu Xiaoqin questioned, thinking of the relationship between this little charmer and Yang Yunhai.
Xiao Wang anxiously waved his hands.
How could it be that the Captain was trying to fool them? Moreover, writing isnât something that can be easily faked, can it? Why not try and see if itâs true?
Is there any need to fool them?
Does it even matter?
Gu Lingling sneered, "Are all the team couplets done? Then Iâll be on my way."
She had many things to do, later she would have to help Liu Yating and her sisters with nursery rhyme mashups. Staying here, talking nonsense with these out-of-touch individuals, is simply a waste of time.
"Mr. Gu, could you please help us write a pair of couplets?" Mo Hongying hurriedly said upon hearing Gu Lingling was leaving.
"Yes, we have this red paper ready, could you spare some time?" Zhang Lanfang also chimed in.
"Sure." These two had been quite nice from the moment they entered and didnât look down on her for being from the countryside, speaking very politely; it was just a simple task, so Gu Lingling nodded and agreed.
Liu Xiaoqin still didnât believe it, until she saw the aura when Gu Lingling picked up the brush, only then did she realize she had underestimated this little girl again.
Quite competent.
"Mr. Gu, could you write one for me too?" Liu Qiao Lian glanced at Liu Xiaoqin, and eventually thought that saving some money on red paper was worth it, gritted her teeth and said.
"Do you have red paper?" Gu Lingling asked, "If you do, Iâll write for you right now."
Of course, she didnât have it.
"Well... isnât there red paper over there?" Liu Qiao Lian pointed at the red paper on the table.
