Shen Man felt very happy seeing the Gu family busy.
It can be seen that they all value him very much. Gu Dacheng also chats with her when he has nothing to do, just because he is afraid that she will be bored.
"Who else is at home?" Gu Dacheng asked with a smile.
Shen Man thought for a while and replied honestly: "My parents are still alive, including my brother, sister-in-law, and sister."
As for the bad relationship, she didn't say it first. After all, it wasn't a good thing. She would talk about it later.
Hearing the clanging sound outside, Shen Man wanted to go out and help.
As soon as she stood up, Li Mei said: "Xiao Man, you sit down, I will cook, and Chenzi will chat with others."
As she said this, she winked at Gu Chen. This guy didn't know how to chat with other girls.
"Sit down." Gu Chen said, "Today you come to my house for the first time as my partner, so you can't do any work."
It has nothing to do with whether the woman is diligent or not. She can't do the work the first time she comes to the house, but she wants to show that she can help next time.
Hearing this, Shen Man understood from this that the Gu family respected her, otherwise how could they not be willing to have one more person help?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but envy the children of the Gu family, except Gu Nan.
Living in a loving family is definitely a happy one. Of course, Gu Nan may also be happy, but more often than not he will be beaten...
There was the sound of cooking cooking outside the house, and Shen Man sat by the kang bored.
Fortunately, they were afraid that they would be bored, so they asked the fire girl Gu Nan to come into the house to talk to her.
"Sister Man." Gu Nan smiled. She had just washed her face and simply wiped it with a towel.
Seeing that this girl's face was blown by the cold wind, it was all dry and cracked.
"Don't you put on... cream?" Shen Man originally wanted to ask about skin care products, but then he thought about how there were no skin care products at this time, so he said cream.
Upon hearing this, Gu Nan shook his head, "How did we wipe that thing? I usually just apply some balm."
"Ah?" Shen Man was stunned when he heard Hala oil. Isn't that thing just for wiping feet?
She remembered that the director of the orphanage often helped with the work, and most of the time her heels were severely cracked, so she would use halal oil to rub them.
"That's it!" Gu Nan took out a small box with a little bit left in it. She took out a little bit and wiped it all over her face like a face wash.
Looking at it, Shen Man really felt that this girl was really easy to fool, but that's right, Halal oil is very cheap, so how could she buy expensive things.
The two of them were talking, mainly Gu Nan asking about things in the city.
It was obvious that this girl was yearning for the city, but Shen Man felt that she must be just having fun.
More than an hour passed like this, and Li Jinhua shouted "It's time to eat" outside the house.
Gu Chen went to set the table, and then Gu Nan went to serve the food. The moment he opened the door, the aroma of the vegetables from the outer room poured in, and there was a big wave of heat.
"Oh my, it smells so good!" Gu Nan said, carrying the plate and entering the room.
A plate of fat, white dumplings was placed on the table, and then several more plates were brought in one after another.
Unexpectedly, they took the trouble and made dumplings in such a short time.
There is also a pot of chicken stewed with dried potatoes. There is not much soup, but it looks delicious.
Another pot of butchered vegetables was topped with blood sausage.
Shen Man was stunned by these two large pots of vegetables. As expected, Northeastern's dishes are always the largest, and they are all served in pots.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat!" Li Jinhua came into the house with two bowls of garlic sauce, followed by Li Mei, her children and Gu Yuan.
Everyone sat down one after another, and Shen Man felt happy. Fortunately, his family didn't have the best, otherwise he wouldn't have known how to deal with it.
"Here." Gu Chen put some garlic sauce in a bowl and you gave it to her.
The two sat next to each other, mainly because the table was not big and there were many family members.
Shen Man took it and said thank you, and then heard Li Jinhua say: "Xiao Man, eat quickly, you're welcome!"
After saying that, she directly put a large chicken drumstick in the bowl with garlic sauce in it.
"You can pick it up yourself. You're welcome. I need to use my chopsticks." Li Jinhua said and went to pick up the vegetables.
She knew that people in the city didn't like using chopsticks that others had used to pick up food, so she didn't use them again.
Shen Man watched the others lower their heads to eat, and everyone ate very deliciously.
She also started eating chicken legs and dumplings.
The dumplings are made of pork and cabbage. There are no vegetables at home at this time. Apart from cabbage, they are radish, potatoes, and sauerkraut.
The dumplings were so delicious that Shen Man couldn't control himself. At the end of the meal, he realized that he had eaten a plate of dumplings.
There are about fifteen or six of them, and there are other dishes.
Today was probably the most filling meal she had ever had since time travel, and she was still full.
This really didn't treat her as an outsider, which made her a little embarrassed.
Li Jinhua, on the other hand, looked at her with a smile, thinking that it was a blessing to be able to eat, but she was afraid that if she didn't eat much, she would become skinny in the future.
In her opinion, Shen Man's body is still thin and he should gain more than ten pounds.
Even today's conditions do not allow the family to have enough food every day, and life is difficult.
After dinner, Shen Man wanted to help clear the table, but everyone stopped him. In the end, he could only sit aside and watch.
"Xiaoman, do you have any plans for the future?" Li Mei asked when she came back from cleaning up.
Hearing this, Shen Man didn't understand and shook his head, "I don't know."
Who knows what she is asking about?
After asking, Li Mei felt it was inappropriate and said nothing more. In fact, she wanted to ask when the two of them would get married, but it was just the beginning, so how could she talk about marriage?
My brother-in-law finally found a partner, but if she is scared away by others, then her parents-in-law will not be able to spare her.
Gu Chen: I thank you.
Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Man wanted to go back first.
Gu Chen stood up directly, and before she could say anything, he said directly, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest."
What a roundworm, everyone knows what she is going to do.
Seeing this, several people from the Gu family did not stop him, and walked back to the door of his house.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, wants to send the person to a collective household. After all, he is a partner, so how can he trust her to go back alone?
Li Jinhua closed the door, sat on the kang and said, "This girl is really nice. I fell in love with her from the beginning. Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaoxiao is quite positive. This confirms the relationship."
She was very happy because her son's life-long matter was finally resolved, and she was still the girl she liked.
Although people in rural areas were afraid that the urban educated youth would run away to the city and not come back, she felt that Shen Man was different and would definitely not run away.
Besides, if she treats others better in the future, for the sake of the family, she can’t run back, right?
Gu Dacheng rolled up his cigarette and nodded, "It's not that good. I think this kid is fine. He's handsome and can endure hardships. He earned eight work points when he first joined our team, and he's a lesbian."
Educated youth do not have a bad reputation, but if they are not good at work, in the eyes of their fellow farmers, it is useless to say that they are not good at work.
So there are not many people like Shen Man, and they are all optimistic about this child.
