Chapter 534: Retirement
Lu Shi suddenly leaned back on the pillow, and her eyes were full of coldness when she looked at Father Gu.
She hated it at the beginning, she obviously calculated that the shopkeeper, and becoming the shopkeeper was her best choice at that time. But all this was disrupted, and Gu Changqing, a widower with three babies, broke into her life.
Lu Shi closed her eyes, she was resentful and unwilling before. But after a long time, she actually got used to it, used to Gu Changqing, and used to the hard days.
Xiaobao worked so hard just to earn her life, how could she not be happy? Even if she still wants to chase the original match, that is Xiaobao's heart for her.
Father Gu suddenly didn't know what to say, and he naturally knew what the character of the second child was. The boss is honest, even if he lives with the boss, as long as the boss has a bite to eat, he will not starve the couple and his wife.
The third child is also a filial person, and he buys a lot of money with money all year round. I never reached out to ask for a penny from the baby's mother, but I took the initiative to give it, and I had to excuse myself.
Of course, except for the third daughter-in-law, who likes to take advantage of small advantages, the fourth daughter-in-law's temperament is much better.
As for the second child, if the family is still as poor as before, maybe he will really starve to death in the end.
"I want to follow Xiaobao in the future." This is the first time that Lu Shi has talked to Gu Lao Dad about his future plans, before Lu Shi always thought that he was young, and when he was older, he would go to Xiaobao to recuperate.
But when she saw the white hair on Daddy Gu's sideburns, she couldn't help but feel a little sad. She was nine years younger than the old man, and the old man was no longer young. Although his body is still quite strong, it is not clear how many years the old man will live.
Xiaobao must have gained a firm foothold in the capital in the past few years, so she and the old man are not afraid to go to the capital.
In the past few years, they have been gathering less and leaving more, so that Lu's longing for his son has been overflowing. She is old, and she just wants to wait for Xiaobao to become a parent, give her a big fat grandson, and tease her grandson every day, which is the life she wants to live.
Father Gu was a little surprised, he thought that the Lu family wanted to stay in Shangling Village with him, but he didn't expect the Lu family to go to the capital with Xiaobao to retire.
"What about the third child? We went to the capital, what about the houses and fields here? ”
Gu's father is hard to leave, and he doesn't want to leave this Shangling Village, where he has lived for decades. When I went to the capital, I was not familiar with the place, and I didn't even have a place to go to the door, let alone go around the land every day.
"Let's talk about it!" The Lu family didn't want to talk about it at this time, after all, it was not an overnight matter to talk about the old man.
In fact, she already has a plan, anyway, the third and fourth children are all opening shops in the town. As long as you have the craft, you can't starve to death even if you follow it to the capital, and you can still open a shop.
Besides, the little girl is also in the capital, she hasn't seen her for more than three years, and she misses it very much.
As long as the whole family moves to the capital, there is no fear of separation of relatives. As for the children left in front of her, she can't manage it, and she doesn't want to take care of it.
The boss is honest, if he wants to go, he will follow. If you don't want to, then leave the family's fields to the old family to take care of.
Gu Chengyu took the luggage and people to the courtyard of the mansion in a carriage, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw that the people in the mansion were waiting at the door.
There are not many people left in Fucheng, only about a dozen. They all stayed to watch the yard. If there is no popularity in the house, it will inevitably decay.
The flowers and trees in the yard should also be taken care of. Although he doesn't come to stay often, he sometimes comes back, and it's more convenient to have a house here.
Just like today, so many people still carry so much luggage, if you go to the guest house, you will have to be busy. You also have to watch the luggage in case of thieves.
The second aunt Liu quietly looked at the big courtyard in front of her, but she didn't expect the third family to really get rich, otherwise why could she afford to live in such a big yard?
Let's listen to the old man, there are still big mansions in the capital! If they had known that the Gu family in Jingyuan Mansion was doing well, they would have come back a long time ago, so how could they hold on to it in Yingnan Mansion?
When Liu thought of this, he thought of Er'er who lived a hard life in Yingnan Mansion. It seems that I have to find a time to talk to the old man, let's let the second son go back to his hometown! Life here is much better than in Yingnanfu.
If you can go to the capital, life will definitely be better. Some time ago, the old man said that the money in their guest house was given by the baby of the third family, as well as Qian'er's medical expenses.
Thinking of Qian'er, Liu couldn't help but sigh. The youngest granddaughter Qian'er was weak, and she fell seriously ill when she went to the capital, and now she is not in good health, so she stayed in the capital with her eldest grandson.
Although he was not relieved about his two grandchildren, the old man insisted on returning to his hometown. He also said that he would not stay long in Jingyuan Mansion and would return to the capital.
Liu's heart was full of emotion, and the two concubines hadn't seen each other for many years. Now the Gu family's life is better, but he is so depressed. When I returned to Shangling Village, I would definitely be suppressed by them.
Gu Chengyu didn't know what Liu was thinking, he had been swaying on the boat for several days, and he was actually a little tired.
However, taking advantage of the opportunity in Fucheng today, I have to inspect the restaurants and shops. I have to go back to Shangling Village, and I have to return to Fucheng.
Gu Chengyu lost patience even for perfunctory Gu Changbai, and threw people into a vacant courtyard. The big kitchen gave me dinner, and told Mingmo that they would take care of it, so I didn't care about it, anyway, I would go back tomorrow.
After Gu Chengyu bathed, he walked in the direction of the restaurant. Of course, Zhu Pang must be indispensable behind him.
"Jinyu! You also opened a Juxiang Building in Jingyuan Mansion City? Then we must go to Chang Taste to see if it is the same as in the capital. ”
Zhu Pang was full of curiosity and expectation about everything in Fucheng, Gu Chengyu was a little puzzled, the streets were all the same, could there be any difference?
Besides, the markets in the capital are more prosperous than here, and there are many more vendors setting up stalls than here.
Ignoring Zhu Pang's high spirits, Gu Chengyu and the others quickly arrived outside the restaurant.
At this time, it is the time to eat, and the restaurant is full of people, and when you look at it from the outside, it should be full.
Gu Chengyu led Zhu Pang without hesitation, and the two entered from the main entrance of the restaurant. The shopkeeper of the restaurant in Jingyuan Mansion is a subordinate bought by Gu Chengyu, named Xing Yang.
"Shopkeeper Xing!" Gu Chengyu saw that Shopkeeper Xing was busy settling accounts with his head down, so he shouted softly and gently tapped the table with his hand.
Gu Chengyu looked at the ledger and frowned. Whether it is a restaurant, a pastry, or a rouge shop, Gu Chengyu will set up a shopkeeper and two account rooms, in order to be afraid of making fake accounts and being filled with personal pockets.
But when he came to the restaurant at this time, he found that the account office of the restaurant was not there. It is Xing's shopkeeper who keeps the accounts, which is a little strange.
Because he has repeatedly instructed the treasurer not to touch the books.
