Chapter 599： : Gentle Brother Gu

In the past three years, Brother Gu and Brother Gu have been trying every means to pay back the money.

But I haven’t been able to pay it off yet.

The reason why Brother Gu broke his leg this time was because he heard that he could get a lot of money by joining a film crew. It happened that a film crew came to the city to film a film, so he went to recommend himself.

He was easily chosen because of his outstanding appearance.

Unexpectedly, before the filming was completed, something went wrong and he fell from a height.

The crew sent the person back, paid a small amount of medical expenses and left it alone.

And the family couldn't come up with any money, so the eldest brother could only lie in bed and endure it.

But the original owner was still selfish and willful to make trouble with him.

Shen Yizhi recalled these things and couldn't help but feel sorry for his brothers.

When he came to the table and looked at the bowl of dumplings in front of him, Shen Yizhi was very surprised. Logically speaking, this family could hardly afford to eat, so how could they make dumplings?

“Second brother, are we making dumplings today?”

Gu Xueting sneered coldly: "The aunt next door sent it."

I see.

The Gu family has had a good relationship with the Xiao family next door for many years. If the family cooks something delicious, they will send it to each other.

During the three years since the death of Gu's father and Gu's mother, the Xiao family has taken care of several children of the Gu family.

Shen Yizhi was about to pick up chopsticks and start eating when he noticed that his younger brother Gu Tianqi on his left was looking longingly at the dumplings in front of him.

She suddenly remembered that it was not easy to eat a meal of dumplings in this era, let alone a very poor family like the Gu family.

The brothers of the Gu family have always loved Gu Tang, their younger sister. Whenever there is something delicious at home, they all follow her.

Even the youngest brother has to step aside.

Looking at the other people on the table, they all had only a bowl of porridge in front of them, and there were only two simple side dishes on the table, fried eggplant and green pepper, and sour cowpeas.

The only thing in front of her was a bowl of fragrant dumplings.

How can she eat this dumpling?

Shen Yizhi went to the kitchen to get a plate and put the dumplings in. "There are so many that I can't finish, so you guys can eat too."

He also gave one to Gu Tianqi, put it into his bowl, and smiled at him.

Gu Tianqi looked at her with wide eyes in surprise, as if he was meeting this sister for the first time.

Shen Yizhi's expression paused. It's not good to overdo it on the first day. Take your time.

Gu Xueting glanced at her thoughtfully, picked up the bowl and drank the porridge in large gulps without touching the dumplings.

Shen Yizhi took a piece of eggplant and put it into his mouth. When he bit it, it had a crispy texture. The green pepper was not spicy at all, but had a hint of sweetness.

Shen Yizhi's eyes lit up instantly.

She didn’t expect that a simple dish of fried eggplant and green pepper could be so delicious.

At this time, she couldn't help but think of what the old man often said: "Children today are so happy that they have never eaten anything good."

Shen Yizhi: Isn’t this logic a bit wrong? How can you be happy if you haven't eaten anything good?

“If you have never eaten good food, you naturally don’t know how bad the food they are eating now is. If there is no comparison, there will be no harm. Isn’t this happiness?”

Shen Yizhi: What you said makes sense, but I am speechless.

But actually she couldn't understand it very much.

How come those delicacies carefully prepared by famous chefs taste like pig food in the old man's mouth?

The old man explained to her: "Whether a dish is delicious or not, cooking techniques and seasonings are secondary. The most important thing is the ingredients themselves. Good ingredients, even if they are just stir-fried with a little oil and salt, can be beautiful. Damn it. And what are we eating now?

“Pigs fed with feed, chickens kept in cages, vegetables grown with poisonous pesticides from wastelands...can the food be eaten? It’s just enough to fill the stomach.”

Now eating this fried eggplant and green pepper dish, Shen Yizhi realized how reasonable the old man's words were.

She feels that there are more benefits to coming here, as she can enjoy a variety of pollution-free, natural and delicious ingredients!

After dinner, Shen Yizhi originally wanted to wash the bowl, but Gu Xueting snatched it away and refused to let her touch it.

Shen Yizhi couldn't help but want to sigh. The original owner was already ten years old, and the girl who was only eleven years old could do most of the labor in many families. However, her brothers at home didn't even let her wash the dishes. He truly doted on her and turned her into a charming girl who never touched the charm of beauty.

 No wonder she developed a character that does not know pain and only wants to take.

Since she is not allowed to wash the dishes, she should go see her elder brother.

Gu Tianlin was sitting on the bed with his back on the pillow, a small table in front of him, and he was writing something at his desk.

Hearing the footsteps, he raised his head and smiled when he saw her, "Tangtang, have you eaten?"

Shen Yizhi looked at him and replied blankly: "I ate it, brother."

Although I know from my memory that this eldest brother is very well-born, only when I actually see him do I realize how impactful this face is.

The eyebrows and eyes are like a mountain ink painting, and the temperament is like clear sapphire. One eye is stunning, two eyes are soothing, and three eyes... I still want to see it.

When he smiled at her just now, there were slight dimples on his cheeks.

What a warm and gentle young man.

Even though his leg was so seriously injured and he had no money for treatment, and he might be disabled for the rest of his life, he was still able to smile so brightly.

Shen Yizhi felt even more distressed.

My eyes couldn't help but be filled with mist.

Gu Tianlin panicked when he saw him, "What's wrong with Tangtang? Is your second brother bullying you again?"

Shen Yizhi hurriedly walked over and comforted him: "No, eldest brother, second brother didn't bully me. I just felt that I was too ignorant before."

Gu Tianlin held her shoulders and wiped her tears with his fingers, "It's my fault that you don't have a new skirt to wear. Don't worry, I will buy you a skirt when the royalties come down, okay?"

Shen Yizhi shook his head and said with a nasal voice: "No, I'll keep the money for you to treat your leg, brother, and also pay off the family's debt. I don't want a skirt."

She was so sensible, which made Gu Tianlin feel even more indebted.

He held her in his arms, patted her thin shoulders, and touched her rugged and protruding spine. He felt a sense of sourness in his heart.

If her parents were still alive, Tangtang would have lived like a little princess. How could she be like now, unable to even afford a new dress?

Shen Yizhi was held in his arms and naturally smelled the fresh breath on his body.

Thinking that she is actually much older than him, and now being treated like a little girl by him, she is really embarrassed.

Stand up and withdraw from his arms.

There is a stack of light yellow checked paper on the table, which is filled with rows of clear and handsome fonts.

Shen Yizhi read two lines and found that it turned out to be a plot.

Thinking of the royalties he just mentioned, she couldn't help blurting out: "Brother, are you writing a novel?"

 Gu Tianlin said "Hmm", "When this manuscript is completed, my eldest brother will get 180 yuan. What kind of skirt do you want to buy then?"
