Chapter 102: The Sun Family
Lu Yang's life is very sad now, since he was poisoned and dumb last time, his leg was beaten a little lame, he always couldn't find a job when he went out, and few people even looked for him to carry the bag, and now he only lives on the family's field.
Gu Chengyu asked Yu Paralytic and Mingmo to send some rice and silver money to the two old men every other day, this was to do their filial piety for the Lu family, although they had already sold the Lu family.
As for how to distribute it, that's none of his business.
Gu Chengyu made a list of the things he needed on the eighteenth day and handed it to Yu Paralyzed, so that he could prepare it in the next two days.
Just wanted to go back, but suddenly remembered that Gu Xi's shop had not yet been settled, and this was just handed over to Yu Paralyzed to do.
"You find a shop in the town to rent, the shop is smaller, not big, my eldest sister uses it to make soy products to sell, it would be better if you could bring a small yard in the back." If you can't find one to rent, buy it. ”
"Yes! Then I'll go to Yahang to see, it's a tofu business, right? Then just find one on West Street and South Street. "West Street is a place where shops gather, and the south is a civilian residential area, in the impression of Yu Paralytic, the sale of tofu is not much money, and it is sold cheaply, so it should be almost the same place to choose.
"It's a soy product, not tofu, it's several times more expensive than tofu, that place can't work, let's find one in the west!" It is impossible for ordinary people to buy it often. Yu Paralytic has never eaten soy products, and Gu Chengyu doesn't blame him.
Whether it is renting or buying, Gu Chengyu will not want Gu Xi's rent. Shengmi endou Mi hate, the recipe he gave for soy products is already good, and it is all for the sake of blood relationship.
After the explanation, Gu Chengyu went out of the courtyard, and he had to visit Shopkeeper Zhou, Shopkeeper Zhou had helped his family a lot before, and he had to go in person to show sincerity. handed over the other posts to Ming Yan and asked him to drive a carriage to deliver the posts.
Gu Chengyu entered the cloth village of the shopkeeper of Zhou, and it happened that the shopkeeper of Zhou happened to be there.
"It's Chengyu here, come in and sit. Ah! Now, even if I want to invite you, I can't invite you, Xiucaigong! The two are acquaintances and often laugh, but this has no other meaning.
"Uncle Zhou will make fun of me, how is Buzhuang's business lately?" Gu Chengyu was led into the inner room by Shopkeeper Zhou, who took the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Gu Chengyu.
"Okay! Go ahead! You have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, what is the matter with coming this time? "Shopkeeper Zhou doesn't believe that Gu Chengyu will come to him if he has nothing to do, where do scholars have so much free time?
"There is a banquet at home, I am here to deliver the post, and I want to invite Uncle Zhou to enjoy his face to sit at the banquet." Gu Chengyu put the post on the table, and then picked up the tea and took a sip.
"What doesn't appreciate face? It's a great event, and I'm sure I'm going to get it, and if there's nothing special that day, I'm going to go. Shopkeeper Zhou opened the post, looked at the days and hours on it, and thought about it, he should be free that day.
"Then I'll be waiting at home!" Gu Chengyu chatted with Shopkeeper Zhou for a while before coming out of Buzhuang. When he came out, he still had two pieces of cloth in his hands.
Ming Yan and Ming Mo were already waiting at the door, and the three of them got into the carriage and drove towards Sun Xian's house, passing by Yipinzhai on the way, taking some pastries, and buying some brown sugar halfway.
There is no way, the necessary thing for Dayan to go to the farmer's house is brown sugar, this is a precious food, and brown sugar is not cheap.
Thinking of his grandmother's illness, Gu Chengyu took out a ten-year-old ginseng from the space and put it in the brocade box. This ginseng is so abundant in the space that it is short, and it will not be useless, so it is good to use it to make up for my grandmother.
Sun Xian's family lives in Sang Village, not far from the town, Gu Chengyu looked at the scenery along the road, and thought of the shopkeeper Pan of Xi Bookstore. Last time, his mother said that Gu Chenglian would see the daughter of the second aunt of the shopkeeper Pan four days later, if it was done, then the shopkeeper Pan would definitely invite him to the banquet this time.
The carriage arrived at Xiasang Village in a while, and the Sun family lived close to the inside, so the carriage had to move forward, Gu Chengyu had been here three times, and they often came to deliver things in Mingmo, and they were very familiar with the road.
Before the carriage drove to the gate of Sun's courtyard, a child of that good thing shouted at the gate of the courtyard.
"Fifth brother! There's a guest in your house, and it's that carriage again. Gu Chengyu was a little funny, most of these children were members of the Sun family, and being called the fifth brother was only Sun Xian's ranking in the clan.
Sun Xian heard the shout and hurriedly walked out of the house. At first glance, it was really the Gu family's carriage, and the grandmother at the back also came out of the house.
Gu Chengyu got out of the carriage and took out a small packet of pine nut candy from his arms very experienced and gave it to a child next to the car. The children took the candy, thanked them, and cheered aside, to divide the candy.
"Seiyu! Is it really you? Don't get used to them, if you forget them next time, you might even have to cry! ”
In fact, Gu Chengyu gave them only because he didn't know the road in the first place, and asked them to help lead the way, so he took out a packet of pine nut candy from the space as a thank you gift. This is what he has in the space, and there are several packs. This habit is still because he always sees Gu Wanhua's son and teases him with candy.
"It's just sugar, they're all good boys, but they didn't ask me for it, and they also exchanged things for it."
Those children don't take his candy for nothing, sometimes they will use straw to weave some crickets or something to give him, in their eyes, he is just a little kid about the same age as them, there are delicious things to share together, and of course there are fun things to give him, Gu Chengyu likes straw things, and thinks they are very similar, so this is an exchange.
"Yo! This is the fifth child of the Gu family, right? Come in, why don't you let people in? "Grandmother's eyes were a little flowery, and she had to look at it intently for a while before she recognized Gu Chengyu.
"Auntie, I've come to see you, you've been feeling better lately, haven't you?" Gu Chengyu motioned to Mingmo to take down the gifts and send them to the courtyard of the Sun family.
"It's better, come in and sit!" When the grandmother faced the Gu family, she always lacked confidence.
The courtyard of the Sun family is not big, and the house is still a mud brick house, but Gu Chengyu found that the thatch on the roof has been replaced with tiles.
Sun Xian followed Gu Chengyu's gaze and immediately understood.
"This is changed by the clan, saying that I was admitted to Xiucai, and the house can't be too shabby, so each family made up a little bit and patched up the tiles." Sun Xian didn't feel embarrassed, Gu Chengyu knew about his family's situation before, so there was no need to hide it.
Gu Chengyu frowned when she heard this, it seems that the Sun family has to find a livelihood, Gu Wan's dowry will not be less, but after all, it is Gu Wan's dowry, you can't always let her supplement her husband's family, right?
In the Dayan Dynasty, a woman's dowry was generally collected by the woman herself, and the husband's family would not use it, and it was rare to use the dowry to support the family.
"Brother Sun, I'm here to deliver the post, the banquet will be held on the 18th, I'll pick you up and your aunt, are you free that day?"
"Haha! You set up a feast, and I have to be free for anything! The other classmates are called? Ye Zhiqiu also called, right? Sun Xian took care of Gu Chengyu as usual, although Gu Chengyu was young and not bad at life, but he was used to worrying about it, and he couldn't help but take care of it.
"It's all called, I asked Ming Yan to send Ye Zhiqiu's congratulatory gifts, as well as the post." After speaking, Gu Chengyu took out a purse from his cuff and put it on the table.
"This is what my second sister asked me to bring to you, you take it, I have to go back, it's not early, how many days will you go to my house to live?" Gu Chengyu got up and said goodbye.
