Chapter Seventy-Three: The Fourth Brother with a Cold Face and a Hot Heart

"Boss Ming'er and I went to the town, we have to buy some rice and noodles and come back, our family doesn't have enough food. The second child moved at home with everyone. I asked Craftsman Sun to come over the day after tomorrow, and our family should be able to move almost tomorrow. ”

"Hey! Father! Gu Chengli replied.

"You have to cook the food for these dozen people. Just make wowo and brown rice, but you can't make wild vegetables and black batter anymore, and people who work can't eat this, so you don't have to say that I'm stingy. Father Gu thought about it and said to the Lu family uneasily. He was afraid that the Lu family would be angry and reluctant to cook for him.

"Do you still need to say it?" Lu Shi glanced at Gu Dad, she still cares about such a big thing.

"Didn't I tell a few words in vain?" Father Gu took a flying knife eye and could only mutter.

"Daddy! Is that brother-in-law still screaming? Gu Chengli suddenly thought that the last time he went to Wang's house, he forgot to tell his brother-in-law that the family was going to build a house.

Father Gu groaned when he heard this, "Hmph! If he wants to come, he will come, and if he doesn't come, forget it, won't Kiko tell him? ”

"And you still point to your good son-in-law? He didn't come last time he borrowed money, but this time he built a house, and he had the face? We have already told Xizi that the family is going to build a house in the next few days, and we haven't seen the two of them come back to help. Eighteen taels of silver were thrown into the water, and it still made a sound! said yes, their family can afford this situation? Don't you want to go back to your parents' house for nothing? ”

As soon as the Lu family heard Gu Chengli mention Wang Quanshou, he was angry, the old man said that this son-in-law was honest at the beginning, but she didn't look like that at the beginning, her eyes were dodgy, honest and honest, but people didn't have any courage.

"Isn't it uncovered?" For this son-in-law, no matter whether he is satisfied or not, Father Gu has to defend his son-in-law for the sake of his daughter. This son-in-law, he was also thoughtful at the beginning, the son-in-law is not like the boss, the boss is honest, although he is not a useful person, but he is quite reliable.

However, now judging from the matter of borrowing money, this son-in-law loves face too much, and he still hides behind his daughter-in-law when he encounters something, isn't he afraid of things? They borrowed so much silver from the Wang family, and the son-in-law didn't even say a word, and he didn't know what he thought, did he think he should give it?

"That's it! Mother! You see, this eldest brother-in-law even borrowed silver, and asked the eldest sister to come back to borrow it, that silver! I don't know when I'll be able to pay it back! "The He family is on the side of the Lu family this time, the eldest sister has been married for many years, and she wants to go back to her parents' house to borrow money. If you know that your mother's family has more and more money in the future, wouldn't you have to go back to your mother's house to fight the autumn breeze?

"That's it! Don't mention the matter of silver, I know in my heart, this time the matter is life-threatening, how can you say that Xizi is also your own sister, you can't just ignore it, right? Don't talk about this in the future, Xizi doesn't need to go out of his way to tell them, look at them! "Daddy Gu doesn't want to talk about these troubles, building a house is a big deal, and he should be happy.

He originally took out the eighteen taels, and knew that Xizi's family couldn't pay it back, but he didn't mention anything about not paying it back, he didn't want his son-in-law to treat their Gu family as a big wrong.

Gu Chengyu already knew his father's plan, of course he knew that the money, the eldest sister was afraid that she would not be able to pay it back, but her father knew it. He and his eldest sister only see each other during the New Year's holidays, and the eldest sister seems to be a little alienated from him, so he doesn't want to meddle in the affairs of the eldest sister's family. Of course, the silver will definitely be borrowed.

Father Gu saw that everyone at the table had almost eaten, so he asked the Lu family to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and everyone went to bed early.

After everyone left, Daddy Gu looked at Gu Chengyu who was writing under the oil lamp and said, "Xiaobao! Did you put the fungus up for you? ”

"Hmmm! Father! I put it to the gods, I was afraid that others would find the fungus and steal it all back. Tomorrow morning, let's get up early and put the fungus back on the mountain. Of course Gu Chengyu wouldn't mention it, putting the fungus into the space was to increase the yield, and Daddy Gu didn't know the space, he just thought that he could temporarily put things in the immortals.

"That's it! Then you wake up early tomorrow. Father Gu relieved his heart at this time.

The next day, when the sky was dark, Gu Chengyu and Gu's father went up the mountain and put the rotten wood in place. Daddy Gu was also surprised when he saw so many fungus, he roughly estimated that there could be a hundred or dozens of catties, if it was dried and dried, at least more than a dozen catties, right?

"Yikes! Xiaobao! So much? Then if our family picks it once every few days, then what kind of silver are you worried about? Daddy Gu grinned happily.

"Daddy! This fungus is just fresh at the beginning, earn a beginning of money, and more people will know it in the future, and some restaurants will also sell the fungus, and this silver will earn less. It's just that the fungus is divided into seasons, and where our family has time, we can find more rotten wood like this in the mountains and bring it home to plant it at home, which is also an income. Although I didn't earn as much as I used to, it was a stable livelihood. ”

Gu Chengyu saw that Daddy Gu was so excited, he couldn't help but splash Daddy Gu's cold water, he estimated that after sending it this time, if he sent it again, other restaurants would know about the fungus, and the price of the fungus would not be so high at that time.

However, he believes that the shopkeeper Liang should not be so stupid, put the whole fungus into it to boil soup or stir-fry, if the fungus is cut into thin strips, he may not guess what material it is in a short time, after all, the people of the Dayan Dynasty should not have eaten the fungus.

"Huh? Also, how can it be that our family has been earning so much silver? I'm very satisfied with earning so much. Father Gu was a little regretful at first, but he let go after a while, he couldn't be too greedy, and he couldn't earn so much, which he didn't dare to think of.

Gu Chengyu pulled Daddy Gu down the mountain, and it was not yet dawn at this time, so there was no one on the path.

"Daddy! The fourth brother seems to be quite busy recently, and he has already started learning with Li Langzhong? Gu Chengyu remembered that he didn't seem to care about the fourth brother for several days.

"Li Langzhong has been teaching your fourth brother to learn words recently, but your fourth brother is not young after all, and it is still a little difficult to learn at this time." Daddy Gu remembered that the fourth child had a settlement, and he thought that the third child was still farming at home! When the house is built, let the baby and his mother entrust the matchmaker to find a family affair for the third child.

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, "Then why didn't you see the fourth brother come back to practice calligraphy and read books?" If he doesn't, he can ask me! We are both newly enlightened, and the books we read should be about the same. ”

"Isn't that afraid of disturbing your study? The four of you all came back after studying at Li Langzhong's house. Although the fourth child has few words on weekdays, he has nothing to say to his family, and he also persuaded the fourth child to study with Xiaobao, and if he can't, he can still ask, but the fourth child just refused, saying that Xiaobao was going to take the imperial examination, and he couldn't disturb Xiaobao.

Gu Chengyu was a little moved, the fourth brother has always been so considerate of others, he looks taciturn on the surface, but in fact, he always cares about others silently, and he is the type with a cold face and a warm heart.
