Chapter 223 Surprise
Gu Mingdong stopped and waited, Gu Wei quickly caught up.
It was probably affected by the incident just now, even though Uncle Gu said he didn't blame her, Gu Wei's expression was still not very good.
Gu Liangchen said, "Miss Xiaowei, don't listen to them, there is nothing wrong with this matter."
Gu Wei couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I'm not so fragile, I still need you to comfort me one by one."
Her complexion is not very good, not because of Aunt Liu's stupid words, but because she feels that the girl who used to be good has become like this now, and she doesn't know what will happen in the future, so she feels a little emotional in her heart.
But soon, Gu Wei threw away these thoughts, and said with a smile: "I haven't been back for a long time, Ah Xing Ah Chen has grown taller again."
Gu Liangxing said helplessly: "We are only a few years apart, can you stop acting like an elder?"
"I'm not bickering with you, I have business with Uncle Adong." Gu Wei said with a smile.
Gu Mingdong had some doubts in his heart: "What's the matter?"
Gu Wei said, "Uncle Adong, do you still remember my landlord?"
"Remember." Gu Mingdong was very impressed with the landlord.
Gu Wei hesitated for a moment, seeming to sort out her own language, before saying: "There is something I don't know whether I should say it or not."
Gu Liangxing came over and interjected: "Xiaowei, what you said doesn't sound like a good thing."
Gu Wei glared at him, but she didn't hesitate: "The last time you left, she said she had something to do and left for a long time, and she came back a while ago, but she brought someone with her when she came back. "
"An old man with white hair, he looks very similar to you."
Gu Mingdong was taken aback.
Gu Mingxing was still smiling and said, "It's such a coincidence that there is someone who looks very similar to my dad. Is it also surnamed Gu? Maybe we were a family 500 years ago."
Gu Liangchen frowned, and teased his elder brother.
Gu Wei glanced at him, and continued: "And the old man brought a photo with a young man who looks more like Uncle A Dong."
She paused for a moment, then commented: "If you don't look at the temperament, it's almost half-six."
Gu Wei still remembers the shock in her heart when she saw that old man, especially when she saw that photo.
For a moment, Gu Wei even felt the same as Gu Liangxing, wondering if she had met some distant relatives, at least they had to be related by blood.
But when I thought about it wrongly, the old Gu family had rooted in Shanghe Village for generations, and I had never heard that they knew anyone from the Bai family.
After the shock, Gu Wei asked carefully, both she and the landlord felt that it was just a coincidence.
Gu Wei jokingly said: "It's also strange, Uncle A Dong is so handsome, don't all the good-looking people in the world look alike."
"Fifth Sister brought her back some time ago?" Gu Mingdong asked.
"Yeah, she doesn't want to say more, and I can't ask in detail."
As soon as he changed his mind, Gu Mingdong guessed who this person was, and he could only say that it took no effort to find nowhere to find him.
People who missed it last time came out in this way.
Gu Wei shook her hand: "Just this matter, it's actually not a big deal, but it's not that I always remember it in my heart."
After finishing talking now, Gu Wei heaved a sigh of relief and walked towards home.
Gu Liangxing asked strangely: "This kid went to college, why did he become such a gossip?"
Occasionally, Gu Liangchen would feel that his elder brother lacked a muscle, like now.
He glanced at his father, but saw that Gu Mingdong's face was normal, and he couldn't see any emotion.
Sensing the look in his son's eyes, Gu Mingdong smiled and said, "Okay, let's go home."
After Gu Wei finished speaking, she returned home, and before she entered the door, she heard the voices of Wang Feng and Gu Fang inside.
But he said that Wang Feng came into the house with a big burden on his back, and he was about to open it to see it on the spot.
Gu Fang saw it, and quickly stopped her: "Mom, this is brought home by the second sister, let's wait for her to come back and dismantle it."
But Wang Feng said: "I'm his mother, let's see what's wrong, it's all for the family anyway."
Gu Fang frowned, and said: "It's my sister's property too, she has privacy."
"What kind of privacy? I think you have lost your mind when you study. You were born from my belly. From the inside to me, it's all mine. You still have privacy."
Gu Fang pursed her lips, after spending a long time outside, her temperament is not as soft as before.
When Gu Wei came back, she saw that the mother and daughter were at a stalemate.
"Elder Sister, let her watch." Gu Wei curled her lips, and sat down directly after entering the room.
When Wang Feng heard it, he immediately said cheerfully: "Look, I know your sister won't mind. I'm your real mother. Could it be that I'm going to hurt you?"
It's not just that Gu Wei doesn't like to hear it, even Gu Fang can't listen to it, but they can't really quarrel with her, instead they will get angry.
Soon, the big bundle was opened, revealing the contents inside.
A big thick padded jacket, you can tell by looking at it that it is for Gu Weiguo.
There were a lot of snacks under the head, and they were put away in different categories. Gu Wei walked over and picked up one of the bags: "Mom, this is for grandma, this is for uncle's house, this is for uncle A Dong's house, you can buy these." Take it to grandma and uncle."
With such a share from her, most of the things in the big baggage are gone.
Wang Feng subconsciously asked, "What about mine?"
"Here is yours." Gu Wei took out a bag of cream.
On the transparent plastic packaging, there are red ginseng leaves and green leaves, and the words ginseng cream are written impressively.
Gu Fang knew at a glance that this was the cheapest type of cream, other plastic boxes and metal boxes were more expensive, only this kind was not convenient to use, but the price was the cheapest.
Gu Wei smiled and said: "Mom, I know that you are not willing to spend money. You have been reluctant to buy creams since you were a child. I bought this for you specially. You use it to see if it smells good."
As he said that, he directly tore a hole and squeezed out a small piece.
The scent of the cream was so penetrating that Wang Feng couldn't help but say, "It smells so good."
"Mom, as long as you like it, you can keep this and use it slowly, and I'll buy it for you when it's used up." Gu Wei said, stuffing another box of dim sum into her sister's hand, "Sister, come with me for a walk , let’s send the gift to grandparents and uncles first.”
Gu Fang held back her laughter, quickly stood up and walked out together.
When they got outside, Gu Fang couldn't help laughing, and bumped into her sister: "Aren't you afraid that Mom will recover and know that you are humiliating her?"
Gu Wei snorted coldly: "I bought her cream with good intentions, how could it be cheating?"
"How much is that bag, much worse than Dad's big padded jacket." Gu Fang naturally knew the price.
Gu Wei said, "You bought the same shoes for both parents, did you get her to say something nice?"
When this matter was mentioned, Gu Fang's face was not very good-looking, and she muttered: "I didn't say anything bad...Xiaowei, I think Mom has changed a lot when we come back this time."
Before Gu Wei went home, she had already thought about it. If she really didn't buy anything, she would inevitably be gossiped, and maybe her grandparents would be said to provoke the relationship between the daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
Isn't it just to save face, she will do it too, she only buys cheap ones that can fool people.
Not to mention father's cotton-padded jacket, even the snacks in her hand are much more expensive than the bag of cream, she is very cautious, the ones for grandparents and uncles are delicious and expensive, and the ones for grandma and uncle are much worse.
Gu Wei urged Gu Fang to come out to deliver them together, because she was afraid that Wang Feng would find out and send them all back to her mother's house.
She could see clearly from the bottom of her heart that grandma still had some sincerity towards them. As for uncle, what was that?
After listening to her sister's words at this moment, Gu Wei disagreed very much.
"Come on, dogs can't change eating shit." Gu Wei snorted coldly.
Gu Fang said: "She is only a daughter, and her stomach hasn't moved in these years. Sooner or later, she will rely on us to take care of her. Maybe after a long time, she will accept her fate."
Gu Wei shook her head: "I don't know if she accepts her fate or not, but she must be holding back something good."
Gu Fang couldn't persuade her younger sister, and she didn't trust her mother that much in her heart, so she just said, "Hey, we don't have much to do at home anyway, let's deal with it."
After entering the old house, Uncle Gu had already returned home, and Aunt Gu was busy in the kitchen.
As soon as the two sisters entered the door, Gu Ting rushed over like a small cannonball, and hugged Gu Wei's thigh: "Second sister, you are back, I miss you so much."
Gu Wei's eyes were sore, she bent down and hugged her younger sister: "I miss you too."
What she cares most about outside is this younger sister. Having parents means not having parents. Grandparents are getting old, and there are always times when they can't take care of them.
"Xiao Wei is coming home?" Aunt Gu wiped her hands, walked out and saw her granddaughter smiling.
"Look at the western style, and the complexion is not bad, but a little thinner, there is no flesh on this body."
In fact, Gu Wei felt that she was still fat, but after hearing this, the maternal love that she failed to get from Wang Feng seemed to be made up for.
Although they didn't have a very good mother, luckily they had other family members.
Gu Wei called out to grandma, and also laughed: "Anywhere in Shanghai is good, but the food is too sweet, I can't get used to it."
"The food is the most delicious at home. Grandma killed the chicken today. Remember to come over for dinner tonight. She killed it specially for the two of you." Aunt Gu laughed.
Gu Wei hurriedly said: "I will definitely come."
"Grandma, this is a special product I brought back. It's not worth much, so keep it and try it out."
Gu Jianguo frowned and said, "You are still a child, even that little subsidy is not enough to eat, so why buy us something?"
Gu Wei said with a smile: "I usually earn money by making up lessons for others, and it's only once a year."
Gu Jianguo wanted to say more, but Aunt Gu smiled and said, "Okay, this is the child's filial piety, please accept it quickly."
Gu Jianguo had no choice but to accept it, and said: "I'm not an example. When you work and earn money in the future, we won't stop you from being filial. You don't need it now."
Gu Jianguo spoke harshly, but in the ears of the two sisters, they heard more than Wang Feng's sweet words.
After talking for a while, Gu Wei hugged Gu Ting and let her sit on her lap: "Second Sister, can you braid your hair?"
"Good!" Gu Ting was very happy today because her two older sisters had returned home.
Gu Wei combed with ten fingers, quickly tied Gu Ting into a high ponytail, and pulled out a hair rope as if by magic, it was different from the ordinary hair ropes in the countryside, it was wrapped with red satin, and there was a pink rabbit.
Gu Ting jumped up excitedly: "Does it look good?"
"My Tingting is so beautiful." Gu Fang boasted with a smile.
"Grandpa, do I look good?" Gu Ting asked again.
Uncle Gu also smiled: "It's pretty."
Gu Ting hopped into the kitchen again, chasing after Aunt Gu to ask if it was okay.
Seeing the younger sister alive and kicking, the two sisters also felt happy.
After sitting for a while, Gu Wei got up and said, "Master, I will go to Uncle and Uncle Adong's house with Eldest Sister, and give away some special products to bring home."
Uncle Gu nodded: "It should."
When the two sisters were able to take the college entrance examination, everyone contributed, especially A Dong.
"Eldest sister and second sister, I also want to go together." Gu Ting ran out when she heard they were leaving.
Gu Fang touched her little head and said with a smile: "Then let's go together."
Gu Ting was even happier. She was walking in the middle, with a sister on one side, and she could hang on their hands and swing.
Crisp laughter spread, from the beginning to the end of the year, Gu Ting was rarely so happy.
Gu Bao's house is not far from the old house, just a few steps away.
As soon as she arrived at the door, Gu Wei saw her aunt sitting at the door folding vegetables, she smiled when she saw them, "Xiao Wei is also home."
"Auntie, has Ah Yong returned home?" Gu Wei asked.
"I came back a few days ago, and went home with your sister and Xiaoru."
She stepped aside to say hello: "Come in and drink some water, Ayong, don't hide in the room and read, your eyes will be broken, come out and talk to your cousin."
"Auntie, don't be too busy, I'm here to deliver some special products. These are brought back from Shanghai. We have to go to Uncle Adong's house after we put them down."
The eldest aunt wiped her hands and said with a smile: "That's too polite, you two are still studying by yourself, so why don't you give me some special products?"
Gu Yong just came out at this time, and he has changed a lot. After reading too much and being short-sighted, he even put on glasses, and he looks more refined.
"Sister Fang, Xiaowei."
The aunt couldn't help but said: "Look at Xiaofang and Xiaowei who came here with something. Fortunately, you didn't bring anything back after studying in college for a year. That little subsidy is not enough for yourself."
Gu Yong blushed, lowered his head and did not speak.
"This kid, he really can't make a dull fart with a stick, and he talks less and less."
Gu Fang hurriedly stopped him and said, "Ah Yong is gentle, how wonderful, he can read at first glance."
Speaking of this, the eldest aunt also became happy, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect him to be able to pass the exam. Thanks to you guys who gave him extra lessons and sent him so many materials."
"Auntie, we won't sit down anymore, we have to go to Uncle Adong's house."
Gu Wei was not used to short chatter from her parents, so she hurriedly interrupted her.
"Then come and sit down when you're free. Auntie will cook meat for you."
"Sister Fang, I'll go with you." Gu Yong walked out.
One person went in, four came out.
Gu Yong complained with some annoyance: "Since I came home, my mother has been nagging endlessly from morning to night, and every time it is clean at home."
Gu Wei rolled her eyes and pouted at Gu Fang.
Gu Fang also said: "Just be content with it. No matter how much my aunt nags, she still cares about you. In order to let you study with peace of mind, she wished she could bring you all the meals in the house. This is your real mother."
Gu Yong also just complained, but now he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and it hit the sisters' pain, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Gu Wei laughed: "Look at what I do, we don't care anymore."
Gu Yong breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't mean anything else, it's just that I've been in school for a long time, and I'm not used to it when I go home."
This is not just Gu Yong, Gu Fang also thinks so.
In school, they were full of vigor, worked hard, and worked hard for the construction of the new China. But when they came home, they seemed to have become native rural children again.
Everyone was silent for a while.
Gu Ting is still young, and still doesn't understand the complicated thoughts between adults, so she raised her head and asked strangely: "What's wrong with it, is the food in the university better than ours?"
Gu Fang smiled: "It seems to be almost the same, and it's not that delicious."
Gu Ting nodded and said, "I don't think it's too tasty either."
"Eldest sister and second sister, in fact, Uncle Adong's food is the best, even better than grandma's. I can eat a big bowl every time. But grandma doesn't let me go there often."
Gu Wei knew what Aunt Gu cared about, so she could only touch her sister's head in distress, and said, "Uncle Adong won't mind."
"I also think that Uncle Adong doesn't mind. He let me often go there to play, and let me pick fruits in the vegetable garden to eat."
"Elder Sister and Second Sister, do you know that Uncle Adong has contracted a huge forest, and he planted many fruit trees on it, and Abin and I went to help out at that time."
"When the fruit is ripe, we can eat the sweet fruit, but we don't eat the fresh one, we can only eat it when the fruit falls and cannot be sold."
Listening to the chattering of the little sister, Gu Fang and Gu Wei's mood improved a lot.
Soon the four of them arrived at the door of Gu Mingdong's house.
Zheng Tong was sitting at the door basking in the sun, holding a half-woven basket in his hand, but he didn't move his fingers for a long time.
Seeing him, the Gu family sisters were stunned for a moment.
Zheng Tong stood up and patted his clothes: "A Dong, here comes the guest."
Although they live together, Zheng Tong has not been rehabilitated yet, and he is very cautious. Usually, if there are guests at home, he will still consciously avoid going out, so as not to be gossiped.
It was Gu Liangxing who came out, and immediately said, "Miss Xiaowei, didn't you just come home, why don't you rest at home?"
"I brought some special products back. If I keep them at home, I'm afraid they will disappear after a few days."
Compared to her grandparents' house, or her uncle's house, Gu Wei only relaxes here, and her words are not so particular.
Upon hearing this, Gu Liangxing smiled and said, "Hurry up and let me see what's delicious."
Someone patted him before he finished speaking, and Gu Mingdong walked out from inside: "Sit down and have a rest, have you eaten yet, let's have dinner here."
"My milk is ready, we have to eat later." Gu Wei refused.
Gu Mingxi had already come out with a fruit plate, and Gu Mingbei quickly made tea for them, which was filled with smoked beans, and each had a cup, and little Gu Ting didn't stop.
Gu Wei saw that there were apples and oranges in the fruit plate, and she was surprised: "Have the fruit trees on the mountain already produced fruit?"
Gu Mingdong said with a smile: "It's so fast, some are bought, some are hair from the second factory, and some are brought back by Xiaoxi and Xiaobei all the way."
Seeing that they didn't move, Gu Mingdong directly stuffed an orange in the past. After all, the fruit in the fruit bowl these days is probably a decoration, and it has to be placed from the year before to the fifteenth. Eating it will offend people.
Of course, the old Gu's family didn't care about that.
"Try it quickly, this orange is very sweet."
A few children just peeled it off and ate it, stuffed it into the mouth, and the sweet taste spread immediately, it was indeed delicious.
Seeing that both sisters liked it, Gu Fang divided her orange into two halves, one half for each.
"Sister, one is enough for me, you eat by yourself." Gu Wei refused.
Gu Ting was going to pick it up, but when she heard this, she also said: "Elder sister eats by herself."
Gu Fang's heart felt warm: "I don't like this one either."
Gu Mingdong watched from the side, and said with a smile: "If you like to eat, eat more, anyway, there are some at home."
Gu Wei joked: "Uncle Adong, you are not afraid that we will eat all the oranges and apples before the Chinese New Year."
"It's okay to eat it all. I have to buy it myself this year. When the fruit trees on the mountain top bear fruit next year, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it all. I'll have to get tired of it." Gu Mingdong laughed.
Gu Yong laughed: "Uncle Adong, the fruit is so delicious, how could it be possible to get bored of it?"
Gu Ting quickly said: "You have to sell it first, and you can eat it when it's sold out."
Sensible and obedient children are always extremely sweet, Gu Mingdong said with a smile: "Others can't eat it, but Tingting can."
Gu Ting shook her head: "I don't eat either."
"Why is our Tingting so obedient? It's so sweet." Gu Mingxi hugged the little girl and kissed her, then boasted, "Today's hairband is so pretty, it makes Tingting even cuter."
Gu Ting's cheeks were flushed: "It was given to me by my second sister."
It's been a long time since I saw a few people, chatting with each other about the school, their respective cities, and the future direction, the time passed without knowing it.
Gu Ting couldn't get in the conversation, so she sat down obediently and drank tea. When the smoked bean tea was finished, she began to eat the beans in it.
The bottom of the food could not be eaten, and the little girl was in a hurry.
Gu Yun saw it, smiled and entered the room, and handed her a spoon when she came out.
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoyun." Gu Ting thanked her, and then began to eat smoked beans with a spoon.
When it was time to eat, Gu Wei saw that her little sister's stomach was bulging, and she was full from the smoked beans.
When the four of them left, Gu Mingxi couldn't help asking while clearing the table, "Is Wei Guo's sister-in-law still like that?"
Gu Liangxing snorted coldly: "What else can she do, anyway, her cousins are all studying outside, so she doesn't care."
"It's just poor Tingting." Gu Mingbei also sighed.
Gu Mingxi suppressed his voice and said: "The two of them think that they will take Tingting away after they graduate and find a job."
Gu Mingdong shook his head after hearing this: "It's not that easy."
Leaving aside the major issues of household registration and education, Gu Fang and Gu Wei have just graduated, so they can only live in a dormitory. Where is there a place for Gu Ting to live.
Compared with following the two sisters, it is more stable now.
"I also think that uncle and aunt will never treat Tingting badly." Gu Mingbei also said.
All the children who went to school went home, and Shanghe Village suddenly became lively, especially the appearance of Liu Dani, which added a lot of topics for the members to talk about after dinner.
The old Gu's house was also quite lively, and there was an endless stream of people who came to talk to Gu Mingxi and the sisters.
Gu Mingdong originally wanted to go out a year ago, but he really couldn't find the time.
Because there is something at home, it really doesn't work if he's not here.
