Chapter 118 Chapter Family
◎Drinking steamed buns, warming up feelings. ◎
Afterwards, selling melons went much smoother. Many people didn't know if they got the wind. Anyway, several people bought them in sacks, and there were also a lot of people who bought one. It's hot right now.
Gu Zeyu said to go home and soak in the well water for a while, or hang it directly in the well, and soak it for a while, so that it is cool and it will taste better after cutting it open.
Therefore, it is estimated that many people who buy melons will try this method.
They kept selling melons like this, and gradually at noon, the couple had sold half a carload of melons. Gu Zeyu asked: "Should we go back here, or have a meal in the town, then sell them all afternoon, and then go back Home?"
Brother Cheng covered the sun above his head with his palm, and he was already sitting in the shadow formed by the bullock cart, but he still couldn't completely cover himself, being exposed to the sun, there were strands of sweat on his fair little face He stayed, but still said affirmatively: "Let's continue selling watermelons in the afternoon, we'll be fine when we go home."
Then he still couldn't help fanning himself with his small hands. After all, it was hot, and his face was flushed.
Gu Zeyu squatted down and took out a handkerchief to wipe his little brother's sweat, then patted his head, and said softly: "Okay, then you wait here, I'll go and buy something to eat. What do you want to eat?" "
Brother Cheng thought for a while, held his chin and said, "You can eat anything, but don't eat pancakes. The pancakes in town are too dry to taste."
Gu Zeyu nodded and said, "Okay."
Then I got up and went to buy two bowls of cold noodles and came back. I also brought over the bowls from others, saying that I would return them after eating.
I also bought a pot of tea and two bowls from a tea stand, and I bought them back in a while.
In this way, put the food in a clean place on the ground, and the couple will start.
The cold noodles were not too hot, and Brother Cheng was satisfied with the food. He liked the ingredients in it, such as cucumber, and his brows and eyes were stretched when he ate it.
Gu Zeyu ate badly, he was just hungry, so he ate up a bowl of noodles.
Brother Cheng only ate half a bowl, and asked him in surprise, "Brother Gu, why did you eat so fast? Are you full like this?"
He remembered that Gu Zeyu had a big appetite, so eating a bowl of normal-sized noodles with him like this would not be enough.
Gu Zeyu shook his head with a smile, "It's too hot to eat too much, besides, aren't we going to continue selling melons for a while? Instead, we cut up the melons and eat them if we can't finish them. You won't be hungry after all."
Brother Cheng thought about it, so he focused on eating his portion of noodles, and drank some tea after eating to quench his thirst.
-
In this way, they continued to sell watermelons for an afternoon, and the record was not bad. Some people still knew the goods and bought a lot of watermelons. They also asked how many watermelons Gu Zeyu had besides these watermelons?
As soon as this question was asked, Gu Zeyu laughed.
His family has a lot of watermelons, anyway, this small town is far from enough to eat.
Simply let that person open the skylight and speak frankly.
That person is quite advanced, saying that he bought it from a restaurant, thinking that it would be great to eat some appetizing fruits in summer, not to mention that this watermelon is sweet, when the time comes, cut it up, put it on a plate, and sell it high price.
At that time, I can also freeze it. They have ice, so it will definitely be cooler and more delicious.
What he means is that he wants to buy for a long time, not just a few.
Gu Zeyu naturally agreed, and seeing that he was fully responsible, he signed a simple contract with him in black and white.
It was also agreed that the goods will be delivered once every five days, and the watermelon will be delivered once tomorrow.
The man said: "I am the manager of purchasing at Desheng Restaurant, just report my name when the time comes, remember to deliver to the back door, there are many people at the front door."
Gu Zeyu's expression was light: "Okay."
That is, it is a long-term contract.
The rest of the people bought watermelon and tried it out.
Gu Zeyu thought to himself, it is still necessary to expand the business as soon as possible.
Then try to sell it in the county town tomorrow, where there are more rich people and more knowledgeable people.
Thinking about the next plan in his heart, Gu Zeyu leaned on the bullock cart to spread his thoughts. In the eyes of Brother Cheng, he seemed to be in a daze. Brother Cheng leaned over and waved in front of his eyes, "What are you thinking? You are in a daze." .”
Gu Zeyu smiled slightly, then rubbed Brother Cheng's head, messing up his hair, and said confidently: "I'm thinking of a good way to sell watermelons, I can't just set up a stall to sell them every day. It's too slow."
Then he stood up straight, and said in a clear voice, "Let's go, brother Cheng, let's pack up and go home, call it a day!"
Brother Cheng tidied up the hair messed up by Gu Zeyu by himself. He was used to Brother Gu's convulsions. His hair would always be messed up. Brother Cheng was not angry. The matter is recorded in a small notebook.
I was just surprised to hear that work was over. It was still early, and there were still seven or eight watermelons left, so I wouldn't sell them.
Gu Zeyu said: "Let's take this watermelon home and eat it. We have to walk half an hour on the road to get home. You are tired today. Go home early, have dinner, and then take a bath, so that you will feel refreshed."
Brother Cheng nodded, that's fine.
He quickly tidied up the temporary stall, carried the watermelon onto the bullock cart, and urged Gu Zeyu to return the things that should be returned quickly.
The already tired body can straighten up, full of energy.
-
Driving the ox cart home like this, Gu Zeyu took care of the cooking. My brother is very active today, and he will become more and more proficient in selling melons later. He can also control the weight of melons, which is a lot of money. Powerful.
It's time for him to rest.
Gu Zeyu rushed his little brother to take a bath, and carried the warm water to the bathroom.
After taking a shower, Brother Cheng came out wiping his wet hair with his body still covered in moisture.
He took over the finishing work in the kitchen and asked Gu Zeyu to take a bath as well. Today Gu Zeyu fried a plate of potatoes, and then he has already made steamed buns, which are steaming on the pot.
Brother Cheng was watching the pot while wiping his hair.
When it was fully cooked, the steamed buns were taken out of the pot together with the bamboo steaming board and placed on the chopping board.
Then, while it was still warm, quickly peel off the noodle sheets one by one to prevent sticking, and hold them in your hands later, put the potato dishes inside one by one, wrap them, and eat them directly in your hands.
It was a bit hot, but Brother Cheng quickly separated them all.
Put it in the steamed bun basket like this, and carried it to the main room.
Then he turned around and brought the plate of fried potatoes to the table in the main room, taking two pairs of chopsticks with him.
Brother Cheng went to comb his hair after finishing his meal. He valued his hair. It is still black and shiny, and the hair quality is very good. He sometimes makes some essential oils and puts them on his hair for maintenance.
After untangling his hair and letting it dry, Brother Cheng went out again to see if Gu Zeyu had a good bath.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, he stood gracefully by the door, turning into a painting.
As soon as Gu Zeyu came out, he saw this scene. The corners of his mouth curled up, he walked over quickly, and called out, "Daughter-in-law."
Brother Cheng's expression was gentle, and he replied: "Yes."
Gu Zeyu directly took his small hand into the room with his big hand, turned his head and approached his face and asked in a low voice: "The rice should be cooked, it's all out of the pot."
Brother Cheng nodded obediently, and when the two of them entered the room, he went to bring a big towel for them. Gu Zeyu came out in a hurry, he hadn't wiped his hair yet, and it was still dripping.
Gu Zeyu took it and asked Brother Cheng to eat first, and he would eat after wiping his hair twice.
Sitting at the dining table, Brother Cheng looked up at him with a small face, "It's okay, I'll wait for you to eat together."
Gu Zeyu speeded up when he heard the words, and then he didn't comb his hair, he simply brushed it with his hands, and it looked good, so he also sat down to eat.
"I ate out at noon today. I didn't eat well after all. Eat more at night, daughter-in-law."
"Brother Gu, you must not be full at noon today, you should eat more, I tasted it, today's fried potatoes are not bad, very delicious."
What responded to him was Gu Zeyu sandwiching the potatoes on the thin steamed buns, then rolling them up and munching on them.
"Ah."
The two had a warm meal, cleaned up a little after the meal, and went to bed.
Gu Zeyu leaned on his arm and said in the silence, "Brother Cheng, do you feel any regrets?"
"Regret what?"
"Although I seem to be very rich, but you follow me and still live a life of daily necessities. You look outstanding, in fact, it is very possible to marry into the town, and maybe you will have servants to serve you. It's not like now , cook for me every day, do housework, work in the fields, and sell melons together.”
There are some unfinished meanings, in fact, Gu Zeyu can certainly make the lives of the two of them better, he also has the capital to buy servants, build a big house, and let Brother Cheng live a pampered life, but he has not, and has always maintained such a simple life way of life.
That is to say, the cost of food and clothing is better, and the life is still no different from that of ordinary villagers.
Brother Cheng turned around, he was a little angry, and gave Gu Zeyu a small fist on the shoulder, "What are you talking about, am I a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and likes to live a luxurious life? I don't need any servants Waiter, I married you because I like you and value you, otherwise, why would I marry you."
He continued to explain, half-sitting on the bed, looking straight at Gu Zeyu: "I don't think there is anything wrong with this kind of life. I have something to do every day, and I am full of energy every day. This is also very good."
After finishing speaking, he leaned over and hugged the man's waist, kissed him viciously, and said fiercely, "I just like you. As the saying goes, marry a chicken as a chicken, and marry a dog as a dog." , I will be with you for the rest of my life, and if I say this again in the future, I will never forgive you."
Gu Zeyu chuckled lightly, hugged his whole body, stroked his back, and comforted him, "I saw you setting up a stall with me today, and I was sweating from exhaustion, and the customers looked at you from time to time, and they also said when we were chatting. How can you marry me, a rough guy, let your husband work with you, and come out to show your face, how tiring."
As she spoke, she changed her voice and said, "It's me who has lost my mind. I can't think about it. My brother Cheng Cheng will live with me for the rest of his life. We can't do without each other."
Gu Zeyu hugged the little brother in his arms lightly, thinking of him being so young, he felt pity in his heart, leaned over and kissed his forehead, then moved down, and kept kissing his cheeks, On the eyelids, and of course on the lips.
Finally, after kissing for a while, Brother Cheng's face turned a little red, and Gu Zeyu let him go.
He trimmed his little brother's hair to keep him from being so hot.
Then she hugged him halfway and said, "Go to sleep."
For a while, the atmosphere was very warm, and the relationship between the two heated up a lot.
