Chapter 51： Do you want money

When Gu Dashun walked right and boldly toward the next door, a family of three in the next room was waiting for the dumplings in the kitchen expectantly.

After all, they are the dumplings made by everyone. Although they look ugly, they are rarely warm.

In fact, even Qin Lingling is ugly to make dumplings by herself. She just knows how to make dumplings, but she is not good at making dumplings.

The hustle and bustle of the city made her walk in a hurry and busy making money after she graduated and stepped into society. Fortunately, I don’t have a boyfriend, so I have more time to cook after get off work and practice this craft.

Watching dumplings tumbling in the water, the aroma spread around.

Gu Yao couldn't help asking: "Sister-in-law, how long will it be better?"

"Almost." Qin Lingling turned her head and smiled at her: "Are you hungry again?"

Gu Yao didn't feel embarrassed and lowered her head, her face flushed suddenly.

She ate gruel and sweet potatoes in the morning, and then ate steamed buns when the sister-in-law and the others came back. She didn't eat anything. Now she is indeed a little hungry.

Seeing her embarrassed, Qin Lingling looked at Gu Zheng on the side again, "Are you hungry too?"

Meeting her smiling eyes, Gu Zheng admitted very readily, "Well, just wait for your dumplings."

"It's good right away, it's good right away."

She stirred the dumplings, then took a spoon, served a little soup, tasted the taste first, added celery and chopped green onion, and poured a drop or two of oil flowers on it, and it smelled very fragrant.

"Sister-in-law, how does it taste?" Gu Yao asked.

"not bad."

She scooped up another dumpling, held it with her chopsticks, and handed it to Gu Yao, "You taste it."

Gu Yao glanced at her brother, "My brother..."

"It's okay, you eat first, and I'll put one for your brother." Qin Lingling said.

Upon seeing this, Gu Yao chuckled and said, "Okay."

After handing it to Gu Yao, Qin Lingling got another clip into the pot and walked towards Gu Zheng, while still asking, "Do you mind these chopsticks?" After all, Gu Yao used the chopsticks.

"It's okay, one family." Gu Zheng said, and even if the dumplings were still hot, he opened his mouth and bit.

Seeing him eating so urgently, Qin Lingling was afraid that it would be hot, and said carefully: "Be careful!"

The brother and sister swallowed the dumplings in twos or twos.

Qin Lingling asked: "How does it taste? Is it okay?"

Gu Yao nodded hurriedly while tasting the aftertaste of the dumplings, "Um, it's delicious, it's delicious."

Gu Yao looked at Gu Zheng again: "Where are you?"

Gu Zheng: "It's delicious"

"That's good, then start the pot and eat it, and then put the rest in the pot and steam it, if it is not enough, we will eat it again."

"okay."

A family of three happily prepared to eat, but Gu Dashun didn't know when he had already walked to the door, looked at the three of them, and coughed uncomfortably, "Ah... ready to eat."

Gu Zheng walked ahead, carrying a deep pot of dumplings in his hand, ready to eat in the bedroom.

Seeing that it was Gu Dashun, he asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Ah... what, something to tell you, you..."

"Wait a minute." Gu Zheng interrupted, then handed the pot to the sister behind him, and said: "Go and set it up first, and eat with your sister-in-law."

Gu Yao glanced at her father, and muttered to herself that it must be okay.

Qin Lingling finally came out of the kitchen and saw the cheap father-in-law licking and smiling at Gu Zheng. Before she approached, Gu Zheng first said, "Go eat with Yaoyao."

Knowing that it was inconvenient for the father and son to talk to her daughter-in-law to be present, Qin Lingling didn't want to step forward, and said, "Okay."

When everyone got in, Gu Zheng closed the door thoughtfully before turning around and looking at his old father. But the pot of dumplings did not let Gu Dashun go in and eat half of it. Because he didn't want Gu Dashun to eat in at all.

"Something?" Gu Zheng asked, his tone of indescribable indifference, completely different from the tone of speech with Gu Yao and Qin Lingling just now.

Gu Dashun took two steps outside before saying to Gu Zheng, "You said before..."

"Are you asking for money?" Gu Zheng interrupted directly without waiting for Gu Dashun to finish talking.

Those eyes that are like torches in both directions seem to be quenched today, with a firm tone, "Do you want money."

"I..." Gu Dashun was taken aback, and reacted hurriedly and said: "What did you say? You said before, give me five yuan a month to be filial to me, this year's end, and now I am back, why do you say no? "

"It's gone, it's all used up."

"Well... when did you have it? Didn't your daughter-in-law? She has a lot of money for a month at school. At the end of the year, the farm will also have money for her to settle accounts. That dozens of yuan..."

"I won't give it to you!" Gu Zheng interrupted again, his gaze moved back from a distant place, and fell on Gu Dashun's surprised and angry face.

"What did you say, say it again! When you split up, you said yes. Give me five yuan a month. I didn't ask you more. Only five yuan. You said that you have no money. But you can't tell me? How can you say nothing?"

Gu Dashun said with excitement, even the people in the closed room could hear his excitement.

Inside the room, the two aunts who were waiting for Gu Zheng to eat dumplings first, looked at each other when they heard the sound.

Gu Yao explained, "My dad must have asked my brother for money."

Qin Lingling looked over and Gu Yao explained: "Every time my brother comes home, he basically gives the family money. If he doesn't give it, my dad and Aunt Dani will ask for it, not much, little by little. I I heard Aunt Dani say before that this time my brother is going home and he will reach out for money from him."

"So it is!"

This reminded Qin Lingling of the fact that Gu Zheng had told her before that the separation promised to Gu Dashun five yuan a month. Now that she wants to come, it is probably because of this.

She was worried about how she could eat dumplings first, and said to Gu Yao, "Or you can eat first, and I will look at your brother at the door."

Gu Yao shook her head and quickly followed.

I saw that Gu Dashun outside was about to get angry. Although he had expected this situation a long time ago, he was still a little surprised when he really said it from his adopted son.

Since the last time his adopted son came back, he has discovered that the other party has changed, his temper and personality have completely changed, and his words have disappeared. When he looked at him with this look, he couldn't help but feel shocked, and he always felt hatred in those eyes.

This time when he came back, the feeling became deeper, and he became more and more embarrassed as he stood.

"Then are you talking about it?" Gu Zheng asked back, in a very light tone, but Gu Dashun felt panicked and uncomfortable.

"you……"

"What happened to Yaoyao and Lingling recently, you know in your heart, how did you promise me when you split up? Did you do it?"

"I……"

"Since I didn't do it, why should I do it obediently?"

Gu Dashun choked, but suffocated his neck, "I'm your father, why is it the same?"

Gu Zheng chuckled, "Huh, why is it different? How much money I have sent to my family in these years, how many tickets have I brought back to you, but what have you done? I am not my own, I was picked up by you, you treat me No, give me my life. I should be grateful to you. I have been sending you money all these years. But Yaoyao was born to you and my mother, your daughter, what do you treat her in these years, What is it like to Chunhua Guoqiang? You can ask your conscience carefully, are you worthy of my mother?"

Gu Dashun choked and couldn't speak. The mouth opened and closed, but he didn't say a word.

Is he embarrassed to say? He did it. Qin Lingling secretly said.

The two children born to Li Dani eat and drink well, especially the eldest son. The baby is like something. Let him go home and rest after a few words of tiredness. The food is well dressed and the whole family is attentive. In him, even Gu Chunhua had much better life than Gu Yao. Gu Yao is like a maid, and Gu Chunhua is at least treated as a girl.

When Yu Guang saw Gu Yao's face, he saw the sister-in-law who was still smiling just now, but his face was not quite right at the moment.

Qin Lingling hurriedly asked, "Yaoyao, what's the matter?"

Gu Yao shook her head quickly, "It's okay, I'm okay, I just thought of my mother."

In fact, Gu Yao had no impression of her biological mother. She was two years old when her mother left. At that time, she was a toddler.

Although there is no memory of her mother, she still remembers her mother's appearance. There is an old photo of her at home, which was kept by her brother. It has been a bit blurred, but she can still see it, she is a gentle woman.

Because she didn't really appreciate her mother's love, Gu Yao longed for her mother more than anyone else.

She is not like her brother who is several years older than herself, at least she has been with her mother for so long.

Especially with the remarks just said by her brother, she realized how pitiful she was.

In fact, it’s not that she didn’t know that she had been wronged a lot over the years, but she knew since she was a child that she was a child without a mother. It will be better, otherwise, it will only make oneself unable to get half a good sentence, and will be alienated from the family in the future.

She hadn't read for a few years and didn't understand any major principles. She could only do what the adults taught her, thinking that as long as she worked hard and worked harder, she would be able to make her family recognize herself.

But she was wrong.

Tears couldn't help streaming down, she desperately wiped them away with her hands.

Qin Lingling watched her cry like this, feeling uncomfortable, and carefully scraped the tears from her left face with her hand, "Don't cry, your brother and I will love you in the future."

After all, she was a little girl. She was only in the third year of junior high school or high school at this age. She suffered from the grievances she suffered from childhood. Even though she knew that this was not right, she couldn't find a better way to deal with things.

Outside, Gu Zheng coldly looked at the father in front of him who had been called by himself for more than 20 years. He once respected him. He felt that although he was a bit dull, he was a traditional man in the mountains and had no major shortcomings.

But after the death of his mother, he discovered that it was all because the family was supported by a mother. This man only needs to work hard.

"Guoqiang and Chunhua are your sons and daughters, and so is Yaoyao. Why do they play whatever they want at home when Yaoyao is working in the field? Why do I bring back so much money, Not on Yaoyao, but on both of them?"

Gu Dashun was bored, unable to say a word.

Gu Zheng thought, if it wasn't because he went home as a "ghost" to see what happened afterwards, he might not have known it. He thought that at least he maintained a good home, but in fact it would have been rotten to the bones, because he was not at home all the time. Only the money and tickets were sent back. What did the family say, what did he think it was? Where would you know so many calculations and injustices?

Gu Zheng looked at this elderly father with disappointment, "If you still have a girl like Yaoyao in your heart, don't ask me for money anymore. If you have a conscience, maybe you will still have your father in my heart with Yaoyao in the future. No... then treat it as if there were no two of us."

Gu Zheng left without mercy, leaving Gu Dashun alone in contemplation.

He thought of what Zhao E said when he entrusted the two children to him before his death.

She said, "You are still young. Find a woman to live the second half of your life. Don't ask that person to give birth to the two children, but at least have a meal for them. Don't be hungry and don't freeze."

She also said: "Shanzi is a good child, not his own, but he is the same as his own. He is older and sensible. I have already explained to him. When he grows up, he needs to take care of his sister. You just have to treat them well. I have nothing to worry about."

Thinking about it now, he seems to have done nothing.

Humiliated and uncomfortable, he passed it from his heart, he sighed, and then entered the next room.

Seeing him come back dejectedly, Li Dani knew that the money was not coming back.

But she still asked, "Dashun, what did your son say?"

Gu Dashun didn't seem to hear her, and walked towards the room step by step.

Li Dani got angry and stepped forward and shouted: "Gu Dashun, what about the money, did your son give you the money?"

"No money, no money, you want the money to earn yourself!" Gu Dashun suddenly waved her stretched hand away, yelling like crazy.

"Money, money, money, money is money every time. Are you so capable, have hands and feet, and don’t know how to earn work points? Shanzi’s money is his money, not yours. You are not his mother. These years, he has brought When you come back so much money, where did you spend it? I am embarrassed to ask for money from me. If I have the ability to ask for money, why don't I have the ability to ask for it by myself?"

Gu Dashun scolded Li Dani as if going crazy, this posture scared the other two people in the room.

Gu Guoqiang jumped up from the stool, and Gu Chunhua hid behind the table, looking at the parents in front of him.

Li Dani was also shocked.

"I... what did I say to me? Didn't you agree to ask for it? Why are you still relying on me? The last name is Lai, right?"

Gu Dashun ignored her and made a fuss. He strode towards the house, kicking the door that was not very stable.

"Bang!" The door opened.

"Bang!" The door closed.

The mother and son outside looked at each other.

Gu Guoqiang asked, "Mom, what's wrong with my dad?"

"You ask me, who should I ask? All day my son has been caught in the fire, so he sent me messages, who did I provoke me? Gu Dashun, you are a scumbag, and when my son says something about you, he doesn’t have any kind of scolding. Come back, I am a stepmother, I want the wife in front of you to slap two big slaps first..."

"boom!"

As he was talking, the door of the room was suddenly opened.

Gu Dashun walked in two steps in three steps and rushed directly to Li Dani, slapped two big slaps on her face.

Li Dani didn’t even have time to react. She just listened to Gu Dashun scolding: “Yes, I’m a bully. From today on, you’d better be honest with me and don’t ask me for anything. Besides, you are next door. It's okay to run over again, take care of your own affairs, otherwise, let me not beat you!"

Gu Dashun went into the house again after cursing. When Li Dani reacted from the panic, cursing and crying again, Gu Chunhua and Gu Guoqiang hurriedly went back to the house to stay, lest they hurt Chi Yu.

The noise in the next room is not small, only separated by a wall, the three people next door can hear it clearly.

The two aunts looked at each other for a while, then put their eyes on Gu Zheng's face.

Gu Zheng said nonchalantly: "Don't look at me, eat quickly, don't get cold."

The dumplings were filled with thin skins, and were delicious and delicious. The three of them seemed to have not been affected by the things next door.

The door opened, Gu Chunhua looked at Gu Yao who came in, rolled her eyes, and muttered: "What did the eldest brother say to Dad again to make Dad so angry?"

Gu Yao replied, "Where do I know? I'm not there when my brother is talking to Dad. If you want to be curious, just ask Dad."

Gu Chunhua rolled his eyes again, and snorted, "Ask him? Didn't I look for death?"

Today she finally saw her dad's fierceness. She used to think her mother was the fiercest, but now it seems that her dad is the fiercest.

But she didn’t think it was mad, she said firmly, “It must be the eldest brother who said something? Humph, my mother is right. The eldest brother is a white-eyed wolf. Dad picked him up from the mountain to give him a long time to eat and drink. Great, he's good..."

"Shut up!" Gu Yao shouted.

"you……"

"If you don't want to be beaten like your mother, just shut up!"

Gu Chunhua was angry and annoyed, but she was a few years younger than Gu Yao. She was usually a mother behind her when she was fierce. Now she is gone, she can only stare at her.

Gu Yao didn't bother to care about her, covered her with a quilt, and the world was peaceful.

Gu Yao was sound asleep, and Qin Lingling next door was not ready to go to bed. This point is actually only eight o'clock in later generations, and no more than nine o'clock at most. It's just that there is no entertainment and no lighting in this era.

She took the cloth bought today, lit it with a kerosene lamp, and then spliced ​​the rags bought from the store on Gu Zheng's clothes with holes, and sewed them on first.

Seeing her difficulty in sewing, Gu Zheng stepped forward and couldn't help asking: "Or, let me do it!"

"It's okay, I can, this one is almost ready to be sewn."

Upon seeing this, Gu Zheng went out to the kitchen and came in after a while, and the dress in Qin Lingling's hand was already sewn.

"Look, where else is there any hole?" Qin Lingling handed him the clothes and asked.

Her stitches are very neat and dense, and if you don't identify them carefully, you can't tell that they are stitched by hand.

"It's all sewn, and it's sewn so well, just like it is sewn by a sewing machine." Gu Zheng said.

Being praised, Qin Lingling was naturally happy, "That is, don't you look at who I am?"

She is a housemaid. In addition to going to work and the two bites in her mouth, she also has a hobby, which is to make clothes.

The city next door to her place holds various Hanfu comic exhibitions every year, so whether it is Hanfu or her own improved Hanfu, or even Lolita clothes, she has done it, although she bought a one for several hundred yuan. The sewing machine sews, but there are many places where the simple machine is not good enough, such as blind stitching. At this time, it needs to be replaced by hand. Sometimes she will take orders and give out some clothes in exchange for some money. This craftsmanship It was practiced at that time.

Qin Lingling said: "If we have money, let's buy another sewing machine and I can sew by myself. Now many people outside are doing private work to make clothes and they can still make money."

Although this is a critical period, there are still some people who are making a little money against the wind.

Gu Zheng took the clothes in his hand for a moment, and then said, "If you want a sewing machine, I will try to get one for you in the future. Now the sewing machine needs an industrial voucher. I don't have one, but it won't take long before I can buy it for you. ."

Gu Zheng had a good heart, but Qin Lingling still wanted to talk about it later, and said: "This will be discussed later. We don't have much money now, and there is nothing to pick up in the village. In case anyone finds out, we will report as soon as possible. Or not."

Gu Zheng thought, "Then wait."

Clothes are easy to solve, as for sleeping...

After Qin Lingling watched the bed, she thought to herself that it was still so cold tonight. She couldn't sleep well by sleeping alone, and she had to share the bed with Gu Zheng.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but curiously asked Gu Zheng, "Gu Zheng, I slept last night, was it okay?"

When Gu Zheng was asked, he was taken aback, "What is it like?"

"That's... Did I affect your sleep? You know, I don't sleep very honestly, I..." The embarrassment of sleeping for the first time makes Qin Lingling hard to say too much, so as not to talk more and more embarrassing.

"No, you are very quiet when you fall asleep, and it's nothing."

"Ah? Really? You wouldn't lie to me, would you?" Qin Lingling was excited but full of suspicion. After all, she really didn't sleep well. This is what her friends complained about when she was studying, and then she worked. , I'm honest, but I always like to sleep with that human-shaped pillow.

Gu Zheng said seriously: "It's true, I didn't lie to you, you slept well and didn't bother me."

"Oh, all right."

"what happened?"

Although she still had some doubts about herself, Qin Lingling decided to believe Gu Zheng once. Maybe the quilt is too thick in winter, so she will not move around and sleep quietly.

Thinking like this, it's not as tangled as before. ,

"Go to sleep, I'll boil some hot water for you, why don't you soak in hot water before going to bed?" Gu Zheng

When I thought that Gu Zheng would be so caring, Qin Lingling said happily, "Ah, thank you!"

"You're welcome, I'll bring it for you."

"Okay thank you."

Looking at the back of Gu Zheng's departure, Qin Lingling felt more and more that Gu Zheng should not be too nice. He is good-looking, good-tempered, and responsible. Generally speaking, it is a good choice.

It is that she and Gu Zheng have no relationship yet, just a pair of nameless couples.

At this point, Qin Lingling felt a little owed to Gu Zheng. Although she knew that these were the problems left by the original owner, since she took the mess, she couldn't do anything and ignore it.

Although thinking about getting along with him, Qin Lingling couldn't help being curious, how would a good man like Gu Zheng one day like a woman? Even her nominal wife, he is so considerate, so he changed the one he loves?

Qin Lingling doesn't know the answer now.

When she was just washing her feet, she couldn't help but ask, "Gu Zheng, did you like anyone before?"

The author has something to say: Update early today, yah.
