Chapter 71 Chapter 71(1/2)
Xie Yan looked at Zheng Hansheng with an earnest look on his face and asked him, "You are now working as an assistant to your brother, how much does it cost you to earn more than a month?"
"About 10,000 yuan after tax." Zheng Hansheng replied. He was used to spending money lavishly, and even 10,000 yuan was not enough by the end of the month.
His parents really wanted to test him this time, and they didn't give him any pocket money, so he had to earn all his expenses from now on.
Don't look at the monthly salary of 10,000 yuan for Gu Yuchen as an assistant, but he was really busy. There were several times when he couldn't even take care of food, so he envied the elderly care department of Hengdong Real Estate even more.
Now that he learned that the elderly care department was open to Xie Yan, Zheng Hansheng had the idea of going to the Department of Youth and Nursing to provide elderly care.
He could tell that his brother Gu Yuchen was absolutely obedient to Xie Yan's advice. As long as Xie Yan took action, he would definitely stand up to both of them!
Zheng Hansheng was still dreaming, but Xie Yan poured cold water on him mercilessly, "My department's monthly salary is only three thousand, are you really coming?"
"Three...three thousand??" Zheng Hansheng held out three fingers and was stunned for a moment. Three thousand was not enough for him to buy a pair of shoes.
If he really goes in, Xian will be free, but his quality of life will definitely be greatly compromised.
Zheng Hansheng flinched a little.
But he was still more curious, "Senior, how are you going to live on three thousand a month?"
Xie Yan finished washing his hands and took out a tissue to wipe them while answering Zheng Hansheng's question, "I..."
He smiled, very proudly, "I'm not short of the three thousand yuan, I collect the rent."
Zheng Hansheng: "..."
Lemon fruit on lemon tree.
And I am lemon fruit.
We are all younger brothers, so how can we be treated so differently?
Xie Yan glanced at Zheng Hansheng and knew what he was thinking. When he passed Zheng Hansheng, he reached out and patted Zheng Hansheng's shoulder, comforting him: "He who is capable works hard, Te Te, you are the best."
Te Te shook his head.
Not really.
Very frustrated.
***
Lunch was prepared by Gu's mother and Zheng Hansheng's mother. The whole family gathered around to eat, talking and laughing, and it was lively.
This is the first time that brothers Xie Yan and Xie Jin have eaten in such a lively atmosphere. They were a little uncomfortable at first, but the atmosphere is so beautiful that it is difficult not to get involved.
Generally, when relatives get together, the elders will inevitably ask the younger generation about life events, but this is not the custom when it comes to the Gu family.
Whether the younger generation will get married or when they plan to get married seems to have nothing to do with the elders. In their view, whether to get married or not is the freedom of young people. Anyway, young people will live the rest of their lives by themselves. They, the elders, should not
Interfering too much.
Because the elders had this tacit non-interference mentality, it made the few single young people at the dinner table feel very comfortable.
However, Xie Jin was filled with questions after hearing what the elders were chatting about.
If he remembered correctly, Grandpa Gu was a scientist, Grandma Gu was a folk artist, and Father Gu and Mother Gu were both university professors. They came from a scholarly family. He thought they would be talking about family affairs or some academic content when they got together.
It was indeed in this direction at first, but as the conversation progressed, the topic deviated. They were actually talking about raising pigs!
Yes, we are talking about raising pigs.
Some professional terms were used many times in the discussion, and Xie Jin was confused, but he did hear that several academic experts were gathering together to talk about how to raise pigs to be fat and delicious.
For a moment, Xie Jin thought he had traveled through time and space.
Is this the reunion dinner for the richest man’s family?
But Xie Jin looked around and felt that it perfectly matched the Gu family's temperament.
Xie Jin couldn't help but look in the direction of Xie Yan, and saw that Xie Yan was still listening with interest.
He leaned over and asked Xie Yan in a low voice, "Xiao Yan, do you understand what they are saying?"
"I don't understand very well." Xie Yan shook his head. After all, there were too many technical terms. He was not a professional in this field. He sounded just as confused as Xie Jin, and it was even more difficult to understand.
But Xie Yan still added, "But brother, don't you think it's a great honor to listen to Grandpa Gu's academic lectures?"
Xie Jin: "..."
He couldn't refute it.
Pig raising is indeed a science, especially from Grandpa Gu’s mouth, it is a university science!
If you hear it, you’ll earn it!
So Xie Jin was successfully led astray by Xie Yan, and he spent the entire lunch listening to his experience in raising pigs.
After finishing the meal, he actually remembered how to take care of the sow after giving birth and how to take care of the piglets.
Xie Jin brought a lot of knowledge about raising pigs with him and was taken to the guest room to rest by Xie Yan. He came from Beijing overnight and didn't sleep much on the plane. He stayed up all night and felt sleepy after eating.
Xie Jin was indeed very sleepy at the moment. He went to the guest room to change his clothes and fell asleep.
But he didn't sleep for long this time before he was frightened awake by his dream.
In the dream, he transformed into a pig farmer and was delivering a baby to an old sow. The piglet that was born immediately swamped him.
Then Xie Jin was frightened and woke up.
He sat on the bed in a daze for a while, then wiped his face again, quickly took out his computer and opened a work file.
Hurry up and calm down with work!
Xie Jin processed the documents continuously for more than an hour and finally drove the pig out of his head.
In this way, he lay down without any distractions and planned to squint for a while.
I hope that the world in dreams will be free of pigs.
***
Xie Yan naturally didn't know what his brother had been through. After lunch, he and Gu Yuchen went back to the room together.
He woke up too early this morning and fell asleep after eating a full meal. Not long after returning to the room, he fell asleep in Gu Yuchen's arms.
Compared to Xie Jin who was woken up by the dream, Xie Yan slept very comfortably and slept until about three o'clock in the afternoon.
When Xie Yan woke up, Gu Yuchen was not in the room. Xie Yan thought about it and roughly guessed where Gu Yuchen was.
Chef Gu Yuchen is having the reunion dinner tonight. He is probably in the kitchen right now.
Xie Yan washed up and went downstairs. Sure enough, he saw Gu Yuchen busy in the kitchen.
He walked in and said, "Brother, do you need my help?"
Gu Yuchen was preparing the ingredients for the reunion dinner in the evening. When he heard Xie Yan's voice, he looked up and said, "No, I'm busy."
Then the sound of chopping vegetables came from the chopping board, which was very pleasant.
They say serious men are the most handsome.
Men who prepare ingredients carefully are also handsome.
Xie Yan stood aside and admired Gu Yuchen's heroic appearance for a while. After seeing Gu Yuchen put down the kitchen knife, he went over to hug Gu Yuchen, stood on tiptoes and kissed him.
Xie Yan: "Kiss?"
Gu Yuchen lowered his head and kissed him on the lips.
Xie Yan took the opportunity to put his arms around Gu Yuchen's neck, wanting to deepen the kiss.
Gu Yuchen seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally put his arms around Xie Yan's waist and exchanged a lingering, wet kiss with Xie Yan.
When they separated, Xie Yan was still out of breath and his feet were a little weak.
Then he held on to the stove and calmed down for a while.
The stove in Grandpa Gu's house is an earthen stove that burns wood. There are two large iron pots on each stove. The front one is used for cooking and steaming vegetables, and the back one is specially used for boiling hot water.
The stove hole where the fire was burning faced the wall inward. Xie Yan didn't notice the position of the stove hole when he first came in. Now he leaned on the stove and naturally looked in the direction of the stove hole, and then met a pair of slightly slender
Embarrassed eyes.
Xie Yan: "..."
When did Zheng Hansheng come here?
Zheng Hansheng: "..."
I should be outside the house and not inside.
When the two people's eyes met, the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward, and they didn't know what to say.
Gu Yuchen sighed softly, pulled Xie Yan over and rubbed his hair, "You can pretend he doesn't exist."
Zheng Hansheng: "..."
Xie Yan glanced at Zheng Hansheng and was amused by Zheng Hansheng's expression, "Okay."
As if to verify his words, Xie Yan stood up on tiptoes again and kissed Gu Yuchen on the face.
Zheng Hansheng: "!!!"
