Chapter 2 The Gu family(2/2)

Apart from a kitchen outside, the Gu family has only one back room.

There is only one kang in the house, where four members of the Gu family sleep.

Since he sleeps on a kang table, the Gu family must have a kang table.

But because the Kang table is relatively small and the Gu family has a large population, it is necessary to clear away the things on the Kang table when eating.

Then put a round tabletop on the Kang table so that everyone in the family can eat on the table.

"Dad, Master, you are all back."

After Gu Zhaocheng entered, he greeted the two men first.

People who work have a better sense of time than Gu Zhaoxi. They go home when it's time to eat.

It can also be said that saving flowers means cooking when the man at home comes back.

There were two people sitting on the kang in the back room. One was Gu Zhaocheng's stepfather, Gu Changshan.

He is in his forties, has a weathered face, and sits upright. You can tell from a glance that he is a well-behaved person.

Another old man in his sixties, with half-white hair and wrinkles on his face, but in good spirits, is Gu Zhaocheng's "grandfather" Song Liuxi.

Gu Changshan is called father because Gu Zhaocheng's mother married Gu Changshan, so he should be called father.

Song Liuxi, the grandfather, actually doesn't have much to do with the Gu family.

It was Gu Changshan, an old man with a benevolent heart who took him in.

Song Liuxi was Gu Changshan's master, because the old man had never married a wife and was alone with no children.

Compared to Song Liuxi, because she worked as a forestry worker, her conditions were so poor that she never married a wife.

Gu Changshan was lucky enough to marry Na Cunhua through a blind date in his thirties.

Because of the relationship between master and apprentice, and unwilling to see the old man alone and miserable in his later years, Gu Changshan consciously took over the job of supporting the old man.

Of course, Gu Changshan had to work to make money and had little time to serve the elderly.

Gu Changshan took over, and it was a normal thing to keep flowers in hand.

It should be said that Gu Changshan had already planned this matter. The Gu family's house was built together with the Song family's house, and the yards were directly connected.

When the master comes, there is no need to leave the hospital.

Gu Changshan respects Song Liuxi as his biological father, and the children of the Gu family, Gu Zhaocheng and Gu Zhaoxi, of course also treat Song Liuxi as their biological father.

Gu Zhaocheng set the round table and helped Na Cunhua put the steamed buns, steamed cakes, pickled cabbage vermicelli and fish soup, and then the family started to eat.

The standard of this dinner is actually pretty good. The fish caught by Gu Zhaocheng is still a bit meaty.

"Changshan, don't worry so much. You have to eat when you have to."

However, after the vegetables and rice were served, Gu Changshan obviously had no appetite. He moved his chopsticks a few times, but then stopped, and Song Liuxi began to persuade his apprentice.

Gu Changshan has encountered a lot of things recently, and the things are not all one and a bit complicated.

If all goes well, Gu Zhaocheng should now be the son of the forest farm director.

Now the captain's son may not be able to be considered stable, so you know how serious it is.

"Eat, everyone eats."

Cun Hua also urged her. Gu Changshan, the head of the family, had a sad face, which would somewhat affect the atmosphere of the family's meal.

Seeing that his aura was not right, even Zhaoxi, the most talkative person, did not dare to speak and just kept his head down while eating.

"I just went to Shang You's house to see Xingjie. The rice cooked by Xingjie was so salty that it was inedible. I want him to come to our house for dinner. Do you think that's okay?"

Gu Changshan asked the Cunhua carefully.

For a family like the Gu family, which is not well off, having one more person to eat is still a considerable expense.

In other words, Gu Changshan didn't have complete machismo, so he could still discuss it with Na Cunhua.

But this discussion was actually similar to a notice. Gu Changshan had a right idea, and no one else could change it after he made his decision.

"Since you said so, if you want him to come, just let him come."

Na Cunhua is a hard-spoken and soft-hearted person. He said he was cold-hearted, but he still agreed to Chen Xingjie's dinner at Gu's house.

Although Na Cunhua had some selfish motives for wanting to live a better life for his family, he also had compassion for the weak.

For Chen Xingjie, whose father had just died and whose mother had left, Na Cunhua couldn't turn a blind eye or ignore it at all.

"Then I'll tell Xingjie and let him come to our house for dinner in the future."

With a worry solved, Gu Changshan forced a smile on his face.

The family finally had some dinner in a peaceful atmosphere.

After dinner, the day is over.

Although this was already 1997, a large number of rural households were equipped with color TV sets.

But the Gu family's life is difficult, and they don't even have a black and white TV set.

It’s not that all workers in the forest area are poor, most families in the forest area also have TV sets.

Just because of Gu Changshan's charity, the Gu family is particularly poor.

Gu Zhaocheng couldn't say he disliked it, if it weren't for Gu Changshan who was kinder.

Gu Zhaocheng, the son of Gu Changshan's wife's ex-husband, may not grow up to be this big.

After all, although Na Cun Hua is a good housekeeper and good at housework, he is really not good at making money.

If she hadn't married Gu Changshan, she might not be able to support Gu Zhaocheng.

"System, sign in."

"Congratulations to the host for getting: five yuan in money and two kilograms of biscuits."

After harvesting another five yuan, Gu Zhaocheng had more than sixty yuan.

The money is still a bit small, and the biscuits are not expensive, costing 23 yuan per pound.

Although the Gu family is poor, they are not without food.

Gu Zhaocheng was not in a hurry to contribute the things, he would wait until he found a suitable excuse before taking them out.

"Zhaocheng, are you still going to the river to fish for fish today?"

After having breakfast, Na Cunhua asked.

"Yes, I still go to the river to fish."

When there are few fish, all I can do is improve the food for my family.

After there are more fish, a pound of fish costs only three or four yuan, so you can still make some money from selling them.

Of course, this fish is not easy to sell in forest areas.

After getting a little more, Gu Zhaocheng can go to the city to figure out the quantity and price.

After all, Gu Zhaocheng can cheat, transportation is not a problem.
