Chapter 33

"San Sister-in-law."

Mercury passed by Gao Jiale's yard and was stopped by him again. The gate of the yard was wide open, and Gao Jiale sat under the grape trellis and placed a heavy astronomical telescope in front of him.

The astronomical telescope is far less exquisite than the exquisite and exquisite than later mercury. It is big and has a lot of difference in appearance. It looks very heavy just by just a shelf, but the brass color full of historical sense is still pretty good.

Gao Jiale was adjusting to the telescope, but when he saw her, he stood up and asked her somewhat restrainedly: "Does the third sister-in-law want to eat grapes?"

He also put a large basket of grapes in his hand, and walked over and said, "Haoying tells me that the grapes in your yard are too sour and not delicious."

Gao Jiale immediately smiled, "This is not something I have in my yard, it was given by my uncle, it is very sweet."

As he said that, he got up and brought her a backrest stool and put it aside. The small stool with grapes was moved to her. Mercury thanked her and sat down. She tasted a grape. It was indeed very sweet, and it seemed to be soaked in ice water, and it was so cold that it tasted cold in her mouth.

The lights in the yard were dim and I couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, but Mercury saw Gao Jiale quietly buttoning, and put down the folded sleeves to cover his arms.

"Today Jiayun complained to her mother and made you complain. I'm so sorry." Gao Jiale was worried about this and couldn't help but shout people in.

Mercury was holding a grape, "You are the young man I've ever seen who I like to say sorry to others the most."

"Ah? Hahaha, is that right? I don't usually do this." Gao Jiale looked frowning in the dark again with annoyance, "The main reason is that I feel very guilty when I see my third sister-in-law being wronged."

After saying that, he realized that the statement was a little wrong and quickly added: "My third brother is not at home, so I should take care of my third sister-in-law more."

The more I talked, the more I felt that it was not good. Gao Jiale turned his head and gently tapped his head with his fingers. The amplitude was very small and he didn't see the mercury.

She bent her elbows and leaned against the back of the chair, her tone was calm, and when she couldn't see her eyes clearly in the night, she even seemed a little gentle, just like when she usually smiled at people.

"I hit your sister, you don't seem to be angry."

Gao Jiale's tone became a little melancholy and sat down aside, "Actually, Jiale was not like this before, but now everyone in her family follows her and no one cares about her, her temperament becomes worse and worse. If this continues, she may fall a lot sooner or later. Instead of waiting until she is bullied by others in the future, it is better to let the third sister-in-law deal with this little girl, at least the third sister-in-law is responsible."

As if she remembered her sister's header and cried miserably before, Gao Jiale suddenly had a smile in her tone, "If the third sister-in-law deliberately wanted to punish her, Jiayun would not have gone to complain. They are all family members. The third sister-in-law can teach her to be more restrained, and my useless brother agrees."

"Actually, when I was a child, I often bully Jiayun. She especially likes to act coquettishly and complain. My parents scolded me. I was unhappy. Next time I continued to bully her and cried. When I grew up, I couldn't bully her anymore."

"Sister-in-law, you have a sister, right? How do you get along with your sister? It shouldn't be like us."

Mercury didn't think of Lin Qiluo, but another person.

She was a little silent when she talked about this. Gao Jiale had just subconsciously wanted to say a few more words and wanted to know something about her from her. Seeing her reaction, she immediately panicked and forced her to change the topic, "Ah, my telescope, well, it is an astronomical telescope that can see the stars. I'm about to adjust it. Do you want to see the third sister-in-law?"

As he said that, he had moved his position away, as if he was asking her to review it immediately.

Mercury changed the topic with the flow and sat under the camera, "Did you install it yourself? I saw you disassembly the parts before."

Gao Jiale could no longer sit still, and stood with his hands behind his back and replied, "Well, I like to see the stars. I used to be very interested in this. When I was in the UK with my uncle, I often went to see the largest telescope in the city. I also asked someone to help me buy two small ones, one of which, and the other was given to my third brother."

"I use this often myself. I have changed the parts many times. I have also learned to make some parts myself and often remove them and maintain them."

He became a little nagging when he was nervous. Mercury sat there and looked. He didn't dare to get too close. He gestured for a while and was afraid that she wouldn't see clearly. He stepped forward and helped her adjust the lens tube, and then retreated, "San Sister-in-law, look at this, this is my favorite star."

Mercury looked quietly and said, "It's Jupiter."

Gao Jiale immediately smiled in surprise, and people came to the past unconsciously, "Does the third sister-in-law know too? I rarely see anyone interested in the stars. I let other friends see them, but they don't know what the difference between these stars, and the third sister-in-law can recognize them."

The shelf was tilted according to Gao Jiale's height, which was a little taller for Mercury. She raised her head slightly and looked: "I don't know much... Can I try to adjust the position?"

Gao Jiale repeatedly agreed: "Yes, okay! I will teach you!"

Mercury hasn't tried to use an astronomical telescope to see the starry sky, let alone the astronomical telescope of this era. Looking at the planet that is not very clear in the lens, she is indeed a little interested.

As Gao Jiale spoke, he slowly stopped his voice and looked at Mercury's side face in a daze. In summer, everyone was wearing thin clothes. She probably took a shower, her hair was slightly damp, and she was loosely tied behind her head. There was a faint fragrance on her body, like gardenia and jasmine.

Full of the fresh and sweet fragrance of summer.

Recognizing his clamoring heartbeat, Gao Jiale quietly retreated. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

He calmed down and saw that she was a little curious and a little serious about fiddling with the lens tube. Like a little girl playing with toys, Gao Jiale was unconsciously a little hot and soft, and could not control her at all.

The person in front of him was five years older than him, and he was his third sister-in-law. He should respect her. However, when he got close, he would easily forget their identities. All he thought about was to make her happier and get along with her more.

But, this cannot be done.

Gao Jiale's happy mood just now suddenly fell, empty and unable to fall.

"Why do you like stars?" Mercury suddenly asked when he looked at the lens tube without turning his head.

Gao Jiale cheered up and explained: "Every time I look up and see the vast starry sky, I feel that people are very small. For it, a person's life may be in the blink of an eye, just like a person watching a cicada in summer or a little insect. When I think about it this way, there seems to be nothing that cannot be overcome in those sad things, they are fleeting."

"You are still so young, don't be so pessimistic. People's joys, angers, sorrows and happiness are all tempered. Only various emotions can create a person. There is nothing wrong with it." Mercury's hand was placed on the lens barrel, and his tone was calm and gentle.

Gao Jiale: "...I'm not young anymore." He only heard the first sentence.

Mercury finally turned his head and looked at him, "To me, you are still a child."

Gao Jiale instantly felt like someone was hit on his head, and his face was filled with depression and could not be covered. Fortunately, there was no light in the yard, Gao Jiale thought.

Mercury stood up and said, "Okay, I've seen it almost, it's time to go back and rest."

Standing there, watching her leave, Gao Jiale grabbed her slightly messy hair and sat down dejectedly on the stool where Mercury had just sat.

When Mercury was there just now, he sat upright. When the person left, he bent his long legs and held his astronomical telescope in a mess, went up to look at the starry sky, and looked at the stars she had just seen.

What she looked at just now was a very small and ordinary star. Even Gao Jiale didn't know what the star was called. He didn't know every star in the sky. He saw the most special and recognizable ones. But why did she look at this one? She had been watching for a long time.

Gao Jiale sat there without adjusting the camera, but then looked at the star. After a while, he slowly calmed down. He leaned back on the back of the chair and looked at the sky with his naked eyes. The ordinary star could not be found with his naked eyes.

He couldn't help but wonder, Sister-in-law, do you think I'm annoyed and quarrel? Do I love to laugh too much and she thinks I'm young and immature?

The next day, Gao Jiayun came to see his fourth brother and found that he was wearing a full suit and had his hair well taken care of in the hot day. He wore thin gold-framed glasses and looked several years older than usual casual appearance. He was handsome enough, but wasn't he hot?

Gao Jiale asked her with a stern face: "Jiayun, do you think I am mature?"

Gao Jiayun was holding the door frame and moving in and out, either: "Fourth brother... aren't you hot?"

Gao Jiale drove her away. He wandered around the door for a while. He heard the footsteps and immediately looked like he was going out. Sure enough, he encountered Mercury head-on.

"San Sister-in-law, morning."

Mercury glanced at him.

Gao Jiale was calm on his face and his heart was pounding.

Mercury said, “Aren’t you hot?”

Gao Jiale: "..."

He went back and changed his clothes.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Gao Jiayun proposes to go to Pinghai to play, which is the most lively place for cooling off in Pingcheng. There are ten-mile lotus fragrance, countless snack shops along the street, Tianqiao artists, and all kinds of delicious food and fun. Every evening, there are several opera troupes playing on stage there, which is the most lively place in Pingcheng in summer.

In previous years, the Gao family also went there often, and even the eldest wife would go out once or twice to play the lotus wind and watch the show. The only two people in the Gao family who didn't go out were the second wife and the third wife.

Although there is less Gao Jialiang this year, there is more Gao Jiale and Mercury, especially Gao Jiale, which is more lively than in previous years.

Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao found a stage that they often listened to and talked to old friends they knew. The young man disappeared in a moment. The eldest young master went to the street where he was gambling. The eldest young lady immediately followed. The second young master and the second young lady sat in the teahouse. The two did not speak or separated.

Gao Jiayun pulled Gao Jiale to watch the overpass juggling. Gao Jiale saw Mercury alone, and couldn't help feeling distressed and asked her to go play together.

It can be imagined that Gao Jiayun was unable to stop me again, but of course she failed to refuse. His brother had already invited the person and was walking by the other party happily to ask her what she wanted to see and play.

Gao Jiayun: "Fourth brother, I want to eat an ice bowl! I want the kind of cheese-watered one!"

Gao Jiale turned around and asked Mercury: "Do you want to eat it? I remember there is a Baiguoji milk ice bowl over there that is very delicious."

Mercury: "Yeah, eat."

Gao Jiale: "Okay, then I'll buy it!"

Although Gao Jiayun had eaten the ice bowl, she still smelled a stinking face, "Fourth brother, why does she have more ice than me?"

Gao Jiale looked serious: "There are just as many nonsense."

Gao Jiayun saw the crowds of people on the opposite side and grabbed his brother: "Fourth brother, there seems to be a little monkey on the opposite side. Let's go see the little monkey!"

Gao Jiale turned his head and asked Mercury: "San Sister-in-law, I've walked so far. Do you have any feet hurt? Do you want to rest?"

Mercury: "Well, take a break."

Gao Jiale: "Then I'll find a place for you to sit on!"
