Chapter 144: Recruiting a son-in-law
When I returned to the village, it was already early in the morning, so naturally it was not that Gu Siwei was slow, but according to the mule's footsteps, I got this time in the early morning, and I had to run with the mule to get there.
When he came to the livestock shed, Gu Siwei stretched out his hand and knocked on the door.
"Who?"
The old man Yang lived in the shed, and tonight he was in charge of the night feeding of several livestock, so he naturally slept in the small room on this side of the livestock shed.
"I, Gu Siwei" Gu Siwei replied.
The sound of the old man getting up came from the room, and soon through the crack in the small door, a faint light lit up, and he slowly leaned towards the door.
Squeak~~yah!
The door opened.
"Siwei, just came back?" Old man Yang slept a little dazed, rubbed his eyes, and then saw that it was really Gu Siwei standing at the door, so he asked casually.
"Well, don't worry about going home".
Gu Siwei's words are nonsense, there is something in his house.
Sicui?
Sicui takes care of him almost, where do you need him to take care of him.
Old man Yang didn't care, he opened the door here and wanted to help lead the mule, preparing to lead the mule behind Gu Siwei into the livestock shed.
Gu Siwei's hand shook slightly, and there was an extra pack of big front door in his hand, and this cigarette was naturally brought by Gu Siwei.
"Uncle Yang, come."
"What, yo, that's good smoke!"
Originally, I didn't care, but after taking it, I looked at it under the light of the oil lamp, and found that it was the big front door, the old man knew the big front door, but he didn't smoke it, just the little money he earned in a year, and the big front door, the big back door didn't have his share, and the mixed smoke couldn't mix with the big front door.
"I don't smoke what people give, so I will borrow flowers to offer the Buddha to you" Gu Siwei said politely.
These words were said beautifully, and Old Man Yang was very useful after hearing it, and his body, which had no spirit, straightened up in an instant.
"You see, it's all the politeness of the villagers."
You're welcome, but the speed of your hands is not slow at all, and the cigarette flashed into the old man's pocket, and he was reluctant to smoke it, like this kind of good cigarette, the old man was ready to use it on important occasions to fill the scene.
Gu Siwei didn't care when the old man smoked, he just felt a little reluctant to quarrel with the old man in the middle of the night, first, he didn't want to go, and second, Gu Siwei also wanted to find a witness to prove that he was back at this time.
It doesn't always work, but it's always a good thing to be careful.
Cigarettes can be taken out, but bicycles or something, then they must not be taken out, at least wait for the limelight of this matter to pass, and Gu Siwei will find an excuse.
As for motorcycles, it is estimated that it is not easy to take out three or five years, even if it is three or five years later, it is a very eye-catching thing for an ordinary person to drive a happy 250.
To what extent?
It's like a few decades later, you're on the street in the center of the city, driving a ...... Luxury cars? It's better to drive this 250 to go out to pull the wind now, almost with you running naked in the city center, and a bunch of police chasing you behind, so it's almost the same.
"I'm going back" Gu Siwei took a look at him, so he naturally had to go back.
Old man Yang said: "Siwei, where are you going back?" The boat is not in the village".
"I'll go back to the old house for one night and wait for tomorrow," Gu Siwei said.
Only then did Old Man Yang remember that Gu Siwei still had an old mansion in the village, so he said with a smile: "Look at my memory."
"You have a good memory," Gu Siwei walked out of the yard of the livestock shed with a haha.
When I returned to the old house, I took out the gas lamp first, it is impossible to light it, this thing is lit in the house, Gu Siwei's eyes are not wanted, and the appropriate oil lamp is still suitable at this time.
Wiped a match and lit the oil lamp, Gu Siwei just sat at the small table, looking at the bean-sized oil lamp and pondering things.
Anyway, he wasn't sleepy, Gu Siwei began to review today's events, thinking about whether there was anything missing from the damage he had just done.
After recalling, Gu Siwei felt that with his knowledge level, this small sabotage was okay.
After staying for a while, blowing out the oil lamp, Gu Siwei raised his feet and entered the space, a little bored and began to fiddle with other fruit trees. Just like that, until the sky in the east was a little white, Gu Siwei walked out of the house.
"Brother Siwei, you came back last night?"
As soon as he left the house, he heard Ma Chunya, who happened to pass by outside the wall, greet him.
"Sister-in-law Ma, what are you?"
"I'll go over there and take a look, isn't the water receding, and a small piece of land has washed out over there, and I wonder if I can take care of it and plant something in two days."
Not only did the rain destroy the crops, but it also brought some sediment upstream, which was deposited as it passed through the mouth of the gorge and formed a small patch of land.
If you want to grow crops, it will definitely not work, and the land may be flooded in the next light rain, but it is still good to plant some seasonal vegetables or shallots and garlic.
Ma Chunya's house doesn't have a vegetable patch? That's definitely not, who doesn't have a piece of land to grow vegetables now, why do you have to buy a little green goods at the market? You see, that's what a rural village is doing.
Ma Chunya is reluctant to leave the land empty, and if you plant two stubbles on this land, everyone will default to the fact that the land is yours. If Ma Chunya is not planted today, it may belong to Wang Chunhua tomorrow.
"Oh, that's good," Gu Siwei said casually.
Ma Chunya asked again: "How is it, did the seedlings be planted last time?" If there is a dead person, if there is a dead person, you tell me, and I will dig a new one for you."
"It's planted, it's planted, none of it died, sister-in-law Ma, your kung fu in picking fruit seedlings is really good. Oh, by the way, you wait, I forgot about it, and this time I went to the factory and brought some candy for the child."
Seeing Ma Chunya, people mentioned the matter of seedlings again, Gu Siwei turned his head and got a handful of sugar cubes for Ma Chunya, which was not much, that is, about twenty pieces, and grabbed a small paper bag.
"Look, what are you doing so politely" Ma Chunya's face smiled.
Sugar cubes are now children's favorite food, at this time, don't say it's a serious sugar cube at home, even if there is a piece of homemade maltose in it, it is also a middle-class family, as for the children of Ma Chunya's family, and the sugar cube belongs to the relationship between the eight poles, even if the two are willing to spend, they farmers go to where they get non-staple food tickets.
Seeing off the happy Ma Chunya, Gu Siwei stood in the courtyard and continued to stretch his waist and move his body.
Next, I didn't meet anyone, it's not that the villagers are lazy, but everyone doesn't need to pass through the door of Gu Siwei's old mansion. At the door of his house, what wooden basins, what kind of bundled bamboo felling crossed the river.
Although the day had just dawned, the fields on the other side of the river were already in full swing, and almost as long as they were adults, they began to busily wave their hoes, and they were more interested in the crops in their fields than their sons.
Gu Siwei didn't have anything to do, and he didn't know when Liu Dezhu would come, so he simply went to the other side to get busy with everyone.
What kind of work can he do, how can others let him do any heavy work, the countryside has naturally formed an invisible class, the old, the capable, that is all masters, like Gu Siwei Although he is young, but he has great ability, ordinary villagers can't be presumptuous with Gu Siwei.
Your father doesn't dare to greet others as juniors, you stretch out and pat on the shoulder and call brother, so how can your father deal with himself?
Therefore, Gu Siwei's side is equivalent to a high rank in the village.
Gu Siwei doesn't really want to work, farm work is so tiring, he has a headache in his own field, where to take care of other families, it's just to make a show, put on a pose, and do it himself without detaching himself from the masses.
"Sid, have you borrowed the gas lamp?"
Guo Xiangping saw that Gu Siwei was talking nonsense, so he stopped what he was doing, wiped the sweat on his forehead with the corner of his clothes, and shouted at Gu Siwei.
"Where to borrow it, I bought one, I'll take you to see it later," Gu Siwei said.
Guo Xiangping smiled when he heard this: "Don't wait a while, now."
As he spoke, he put down the hoe and walked towards Gu Siwei.
Gu Siwei had to take him back to his old house on a simple raft.
As soon as he entered the house, Guo Xiangping saw the gas lamp on the table and said, "It's really brand new, how much did it cost?" ”
Hearing the price of the gas lamp, Guo Xiangping took a long breath: "You are still willing to spend money, this price is enough to say that the last daughter-in-law is enough."
"This is too exaggerated, this amount of money is said to be a daughter-in-law?" Gu Siwei replied with a smile.
Guo Xiangping said: "Why can't it, now the Qiu Mei of the old Sun family is at this price."
"Huh?!" Gu Siwei was stunned when he heard this.
With Gu Siwei's thoughts, how can there be any bride price in this era, two young people take a fancy to each other, a few people invite, put two single beds together, even if this happy event is done, how can it still be priced?
Guo Xiangping turned his head and saw Gu Siwei's face surprised, he didn't understand anymore: "What's wrong?" Is it expensive or cheap? ”
This adjective, people are not livestock, how can they talk about being cheap and expensive, but Gu Siwei is not embarrassed to accuse others, the old man is older than his father in later generations, and the village is also of high seniority, you can say whoever you want, this is the power of high seniority.
"It's not a question of nobility, but that Sun Qiumei has found her in-laws?"
Gu Siwei felt that he hadn't heard anyone talk about this when he left, so why was it decided as soon as he came back?
"It's still the son of the Zhao family last time, Zhao Fangming, or the thread that Fulin pulled, weren't you there at the time" Guo Xiangping thinks that you are a half-old child and have a bad memory now.
Where did Gu Siwei think that this matter could drag on for so long, he thought that it would be done, and if it didn't work, it wouldn't be done.
Lao Gu forgot, now is not a few decades later, took out his mobile phone and said: Hey, we are not suitable and it will be over, and I think it is not bad to continue.
At this time, the news came that it would take two or three days to go back and forth from here to the town, and it would take several trips back and forth, plus the farming work, it should be almost at this time before there would be results.
"The two children saw that it was suitable, so they made up their minds, and Qiu Mei recruited him here," Guo Xiangping said.
Listening to this, Gu Siwei is almost stupid, only those who have no sons can recruit sons-in-law to come to the door, Sun Qiumei and his two sons, four or five grandsons, which son-in-law is recruited.
Guo Xiangping was waiting for Gu Siwei here, and when he saw the shock on Gu Siwei's face, he immediately felt that his heart was extremely useful, and the fire of gossip was blazing.
