"From the second family, it's not that I don't let your eldest brother come. It's that your eldest brother doesn't know how to do heavy work at all, so why ask him to do it?" Father Gu was a little unhappy when he was questioned like this. The second family is.
Somewhat messy.
"Okay! Don't you know what your eldest brother's virtues are?" Gu Chengyi scolded him when he saw that He was going to talk back again.
It's not worth it to make his father angry because of his brother-in-law. Besides, if his brother-in-law really comes, I'm afraid that others won't even be able to eat. Thinking of the Chinese New Year two years ago, when his brother-in-law had dinner at the table, he
I finally found out that the He family had inherited their family heritage. The brother and sister were equally virtuous, and the brother-in-law was even worse.
Seeing that her father-in-law was a little unhappy, and even the baby's father had spoken to her, even though He was dissatisfied in every way, she had no choice but to let the matter go.
The next day, Father Gu sent Gu Chengyu to a private school, and when he came back, he took Gu Chengli and the others to start moving. The large house at the foot of the mountain had been packed up by Father Gu a long time ago. All they needed to do was move the things in and lay out the dishes.
The kang cannot be burned because it has not been used for a long time. However, it is spring now, so it is okay not to use the kang.
When Gu Chengyu came back from the party, he went to take a look at the house. He saw that the house that used to look dilapidated and collapsed now looked presentable.
Although it is a mud-brick thatched house, it is quite large without a yard. The layout of the houses of farmers in the Dayan Dynasty is similar, so according to the original rules, Mr. and Mrs. Gu, Gu Chengyu and Gu Wan live in the main house, and the other rooms
They lived in the east and west wing rooms, but there was no back room in the main house, so Mr. Gu asked Gu Laosan and Gu Laosi to squeeze in the back room of the big house. Anyway, they would only stay there for more than a month.
"Dad! After we move the house, I think the honeysuckle and fungus on the mountain are almost ready, so we should be able to pick them. After we finish moving things tomorrow, let's move in! It's right at the foot of the mountain, so it's easier to go up the mountain."
Gu Chengyu bit the honeysuckle and remembered that the honeysuckle can still be picked one more time. This time should be the last time it blooms.
While they were not going up the mountain, he had to put the rotten wood into the mountain and talk to his father later.
"Well! I met Shopkeeper Liang in the town today. He said that the fungus was almost sold out and asked us to deliver it as soon as possible. Fortunately, he met me today, otherwise he would have come to our house." Dad Gu
Thinking of what Shopkeeper Liang asked today, he didn't give a definite answer at that time. He had gone up the mountain to look and didn't see the fungus in the original place. He thought Xiaobao had placed them all with the gods, and he didn't know about the fungus.
Whether it grows out or not, he doesn't dare to agree casually.
"There should be more this time than last time." When collecting the dead wood into the space, Gu Chengyu also collected a few more ones that were left on the mountain. Therefore, there should be more this time.
"That's great! Our family has been spending a lot of money recently, and there is a lot of money coming in and out, so don't we just sit back and have nothing? Now that we have income again, we are not afraid that the family will have no money." Mrs. Lu watched the money flowing out every day,
She felt her flesh aching. If her income were to be lost again and it would only decrease day by day, she would be anxious!
Gu Chengyu looked a little amused at the way his mother took a breath, "Mom! Didn't I tell you? I know how to earn money! What are you worried about?"
Even Father Gu was laughing at Lu's petty arrogance, and would not say that he was actually feeling distressed in his heart.
"Xiaobao! You are still a little baby! Do you still need a little baby to support a big family? The most important thing for you now is to be good. Mom is still pointing you to get the top prize and let her become an old man.
Jun!" Mrs. Lu touched Gu Chengyu's head and said lovingly.
Hearing this, Mrs. He curled her lips. She didn't expect that her mother-in-law's ambition was quite big. She even wanted to be an old feudal lord in an official family. How easy was it for an official to pass the exam? For such a little kid, she thought.
Isn't this too early? Besides, they are all farm boys, how can it be so easy to get into the exam? To get the top prize? Bah! How shameless!
Gu Chengli lowered his head in shame, suddenly thinking that Xiaobao had earned the house and fields in his family. Their whole family was now living on the money Xiaobao earned. Alas! He was also the eldest brother.
It’s no use! The Wowo was delicious at first, but now I have lost my appetite.
"Mom! I will be fine!" Gu Chengyu put down his chopsticks and looked at Lu firmly. He didn't want to make a promise like that he would become a high official at this moment. He could only promise that he would work hard. Life is always full of this and that.
Unexpectedly, he couldn't guarantee what would happen in the future.
"Hey! Mom knows that our little baby is a smart and filial baby." A big smile appeared on Ms. Lu's face. After speaking, she picked up a large piece of scrambled eggs from the plate and placed it on Gu Chengyu's head.
In the bowl.
The atmosphere in which the mother and son interacted seemed warm, but everyone at the table had different thoughts.
"Dad! Have you chosen someone to help us?" Gu Chengyi didn't have the patience to look at their loving mother and filial piety, so he asked Father Gu.
"Not yet! Craftsman Sun said that he would bring five people with him this time, and asked us to find five more men to do odd jobs. Counting Huaishan, we have to hire four more."
Today, another official came to the village. He saw that most of the people in the village had paid money, so it was not difficult to call them this time.
"Dad! Why don't you call Aunt Wang's house? Aunt Wang has helped us several times! She never thanked her properly." Gu Chengyu remembered that every time something happened at home, Aunt Wang said good things to his family, twice.
He also helped people run before and after running. Besides, the men in his family were famous for their hard work in the village.
"Well! I like it! I'll call you Wang Erniu! He is hard-working, and even if he doesn't hit you Aunt Wang, I would like to call him Wang Erniu. Boss, second brother, tell me, there are still three people left, are there any suitable ones?
Candidate?"
"Dad! You are more familiar with the people in the village! You can look for them!" Gu Chengli was named by his father and thought for a while before saying.
"Dad! If the silly boy at the west end of the village still has his father, just call him! He's very strong!" Gu Chengyi suggested.
"No! He is very strong, but he also eats a lot!" When Mrs. Lu heard this, she thought that was incredible! Han Wazi is just like his father, he eats a lot and grows strong.
"He is successful, although he eats more! But he is very strong! To do our job, you have to be very strong, and you are not afraid of him eating." Father Gu was also very satisfied with the choice.
"Dad! Can you call Chunhua's father?" Gu Wan was listening and suddenly thought of Chunhua's father. If his father came to work, would Chunhua come to play with her more often?
"That's okay! I'll call Sun Datou tomorrow, and there's another one. I'll go to the village tomorrow and have a look. I can always find him. If everyone works hard and works hard, then our family will have so much land.
Pick two of them to help..." Father Gu thought of so many places, and it would definitely not be possible to just rely on a few people in the family.
But what Gu Chengyu thinks about is that when the family has a stable livelihood and buys more land, it will inevitably have to be sold to a few people and hired by villagers. There are some things that cannot be said, so the buyer should be more at ease. For
He is not opposed to buying people. He does not have such thoughts as a virgin and feels that there is no human rights. After all, the imperial power is supreme here.
