"Dad, actually the second brother has a good heart. I think he has a flexible mind and knows how to adapt. At present, it seems that he has a bottom line in doing things." Gu Chengyu persuaded.
In fact, he still has something to say, and it doesn't involve his second brother's interests. He likes to turn a blind eye. When his interests are violated, he will fight back, even if it is against his own brother.
He can also do it. Take the matter of corvee for example. Although you can offset the corvee tax by borrowing money, every household has to do corvee labor. Who has so much money? That money can really help
Can you get it together? If you can't get it together, the third brother, who is only fourteen years old, will have to do corvee labor. Even an adult man can't bear it, let alone a teenager. He is forcing Father Gu. Since he can know the fate of the Gu family
No matter how rich you are, you can avoid having to do corvee service, killing two birds with one stone. Of course, protecting yourself wisely is something everyone will do. The second brother also has the position of the second brother. Gu Chengyu can't say what is right or wrong. He can only judge from each person's personal experience.
Just look at it from an angle! Perhaps, he and his second brother are most similar in temperament, but he doesn't want to plot against his brother.
"Let's see later!" Father Gu didn't want to separate the family. He hoped that his second son wouldn't disappoint him.
"Old man, the meal is ready, but are we going to serve it now?" Ms. Lu stood at the door of the kitchen and called to the main room.
Father Gu leaned on the window and replied, "Just put it on! Go call the second brother back for dinner."
Gu Chengyu heard his mother calling Da Lang to ask them to come back for dinner. Dad Gu and Gu Chengli were not at home today, but the farm work could not be left behind, so the second brother had to go to the fields alone. Fang stayed at home to help He for the time being.
Shi helped cook the dinner, and Daya helped light the fire in the kitchen.
As soon as Mr. Gu set down the dining table, Daya and Fang came in with a big bowl of soup, and a large plate of glutinous rice. Gu Chengyu twitched his lips when he looked at the big bowl of soup, which was similar to modern pig food.
, when will his family’s food be changed? Why is it always dark and mushy? He can’t even eat a dry meal. No, he has to tell his mother tomorrow that he has money at home and there is no need to eat black batter anymore.
After a while, I heard the voice of the second sister-in-law calling to the second brother, "Dad, go wash your hands quickly. There are pig trotters here today! If you go late, they will be gone." Behind him, his mother was heard shouting: "Old man.
From the second family, you know how to be lazy when I ask you to serve food, what’s wrong? You still want to ask me, my mother-in-law, to serve you? "
"Mom! Didn't I see that the baby's father is back? I'm going to get the bowl and chopsticks." As he said this, he looked at the pig's trotters in Lu's hand. It was so delicious.
Mrs. Lu didn't want to talk too much with Mrs. He. She was just a fool, and she had important things to talk about later! She didn't have to waste her saliva, snorted, and carried it back to the main room.
Gu Chengyu saw Mrs. Lu holding two plates of pig's trotters on the table, one for each table. There were pig's trotters on that table today, but they were relatively small, only a few pieces. Gu Chengyu took a closer look, wow! But
I really admire his mother. Originally, the pig's trotters were a bit big, but she chopped them into two pieces. So what else can I eat? I guess I can't even bite the meat from one piece.
"Have you called me? Come and eat! Eat early, I have something to announce." Father Gu thought of what he had to announce later, so he had to finish the dinner before talking about it. Otherwise, he might not be able to eat it again.
Mrs. Lu first scooped a full bowl into the bowls of everyone at the man's table, and all of them were dry goods that were sunk underneath. Each person took two nests, which were all larger, including Gu Chengyu and others.
The kid's portions are all the same. The table above is full before it's taken to the next table; it's still one bowl per person, but the bowl here is thinner, filled with wild vegetables and very few gnocchi.
, each person has two nests, and the nest is much smaller than the table above. The little kid only has one nest, and the older man and the others all share it. They have all finished dividing it, and the basin has reached the bottom. Every time Lu cooks more batter.
Good grasp.
This kind of meal sharing system made Gu Chengyu frown. He also knew that if a large family could eat with all their energy, the food at home would only be enough for more than a month at most. It seemed that his father would have to buy some.
If they don’t have enough food to eat in the fields, they will raise them with yellow faces and skinny muscles. The youngest Gu Xing is more than ten months old and can’t even stand firmly. Every day, she is thrown on the kang and left to play by herself. Da Ya is also very busy.
, there is no time to look at her. There is also his sister-in-law. He feels that there is something wrong with his sister-in-law's body. He can't take pulse yet, but he can also see that Fang's energy and blood are insufficient and she is very thin, especially after giving birth to Gu Xing.
, I have to work every day, and it feels like my body has been hollowed out. I have to find a time to let Mr. Li take a look, grab some medicine and take supplements. Of course, it will definitely not be easy for his brother-in-law to mention it.
Yes, you still have to tell your elder brother.
After a while, all the Gu family members arrived. Father Gu poked the chives with his chopsticks first, and then the others started to move. Gu Chengyu sipped the paste in the bowl, and when his mother wasn't paying attention, he threw a steamed bun in.
In the space, I planned to share them with Dalang and the others later, and then add some prepared buns from the food court in the space, so that each person could share one without being noticed, because he happened to go to the county town today, so he said he bought it from the county town, secretly
Hidden. The buns in the space were originally steamed, but before they were steamed in the steamer, there was gas inside. Gu Chengyu had already steamed the buns and put them inside for emergencies. Anyway, the underground warehouse of the space could
Keep fresh.
Mr. He has long been eyeing the pig's trotters on the table. She doesn't know why her mother-in-law is so generous today. Why is there also pig's trotters on this table? Although there are only a few pieces and many of them have no meat, it would be nice to taste them.
! First, I picked two fatter pieces and put them in the bowls of my two sons. When I went to pick them up, I found that the plates were already empty. My eyes looked around in everyone's bowls on the table. Okay! It turns out that it is
Erya gave the remaining four pieces of pig's trotters to Dalang and Fang, and the three of them were dividing them!
He didn't eat, why should he get angry? "Okay! Erya, your hands are really fast! This elder hasn't eaten yet, but you have eaten it first? A girl has such a greedy mouth, be careful not to marry her if she grows up.
Get out." Mr. He stared fiercely at the piece of pig's trotter that had not been taken out of Erya's bowl.
Erya gave Fang's pig trotters a pause, and then her eyes turned red. Fang also had a rare expression on her face after hearing this, "Second brother and sister, don't you know how important reputation is to a girl? You arranged it like this
Our second girl, what are you worried about?"
Mr. He was frightened by Mrs. Fang's sudden cold face. My sister-in-law has always been a shy person, so when did she lose her temper like this? As soon as she realized what she was doing, she wanted to get angry back.
"Okay! You can't stop eating even after a meal. This pig's trotters belongs to the second family. It's meant for everyone to eat, and it's not yours alone. It makes no sense that you can eat it and others can't. Eat it quickly.
I have something to say after dinner." Dad Gu couldn't stand it anymore. Who in the Gu family has a figure as round as the second child's? She eats too little secretly? She chirps all day long, making people noisy.
Brain aches.
When Mrs. He saw what her father-in-law had said, she had no choice but to drink the paste angrily, making a slurping sound while drinking, accompanied by his lips. Seeing this, Mr. Gu could only shake his head.
Gu Chengyi, who was serving the table, didn't pay attention to the He family's affairs. His mind was on the money of the honeysuckle sold today. It is estimated that after dinner, his father will announce how much the honeysuckle was sold. He estimated that it would be three taels.
There is always money! Calculating the money, I also thought that there should be two more harvests of honeysuckle, and then it should be enough to scrape together the money.
