Second Brother Gu accidentally ate too much, "Jiaojiao, you are full, second brother will take you to your room to see."
"Okay, I'll take our laundry to the room. Su Shuoci, you distribute the gifts our mom prepared for grandpa and the others to everyone."
"Yeah." Su Shuoci was not in a hurry to see the room. They were only staying there tonight anyway. If they really couldn't adapt, they could stay in the space.
"Jiaojiao, let me carry it." Second Brother Gu snatched the canvas bag from Gu Jiaojiao's hand and led the way.
The room that the Gu family prepared for Gu Jiaojiao was on the second floor of the main building, next to Gu's father and mother's rooms.
"Jiaojiao, do you like it? This is the room that your second brother specially decorated for you."
"The room is so beautifully decorated, could it be that you, my second brother, designed it for us?"
The reason why Gu Jiaojiao asked this was that this room was exactly the same as the room they had decorated in the new courtyard they bought in Qingcheng.
"Hehe... your second brother doesn't know how to design it. It was designed by your eldest brother himself. It's similar to the room in your new courtyard."
Second Brother Gu helped his eldest brother show off, but what he didn't tell Gu Jiaojiao was that their eldest brother also specially designed a room for Sheng Yueliang.
It's just that his grandfather, his father and he were unwilling to spend money to buy materials, so he gave up because his eldest brother didn't have money to buy materials.
That room is right next to Brother Gu's. Now they just paint the walls white and buy a bed to put in the room as a guest room.
"Well, I like it very much. I'm sorry to trouble my two brothers." Gu Jiaojiao expressed her sincere gratitude.
She just looked carefully. On this floor, there was only one room for her and Su Shuoci, one room for her parents, and a large living room in the middle of the two rooms.
There is a study on each side of the room, and there is not even a guest room on the second floor, which makes Gu Jiaojiao very satisfied.
"You are my biological sister. Not to mention decorating a house for you, even buying you a courtyard house when my second brother makes a lot of money is only natural."
Second Brother Gu said this with great pride. He had always thought so in his heart. After all, every penny he earned now was taught to him by his younger sister.
"Okay, then I'd like to thank you, brother..."
"Cough... cough..." A slight coughing sound interrupted the conversation between the two siblings.
"Hey, brother, why are you here too?" Seeing Gu Jinghua also coming, the second brother Gu said in surprise.
"Haha..." Brother Gu said with a smile: "Jiaojiao, you guys have had a hard time along the way, do you want to take a rest now or go out for a walk?"
"Let's go out for a walk now. I want to see the night market in the capital and visit my second brother's stall." Gu Jiaojiao said with a smile.
This was her first time in the imperial capital in this life, so she was full of novelty and interest in the old imperial capital of this era.
"Okay, let's go shopping together." Seeing that his sister was willing to talk to him, Gu Jinghua smiled happily.
"Brother, you should smile more. Xia Qiuming said you're fine, but you're just feeling a bit depressed. What are you thinking about all day?"
Gu Jiaojiao didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but when she saw that he looked sick, she couldn't help but want to remind him.
"My job is still being transferred. Because my health is no longer suitable for serving in the army, I can only switch to a corresponding civilian job."
"There's nothing wrong with being a clerical worker. You can choose a job you enjoy. If you're more cheerful, you'll be healthier too."
"Jiaojiao, Big Brother is crazy about money. He feels that the salary of a civil servant is not as high as his previous salary."
When Gu Jiaojiao heard her second brother say that her eldest brother was crazy about money, she could guess something, but she was too lazy to think about it and just said it casually.
"Big brother, are you looking to save money to get married? Do you have someone you like? If you don't have enough money for a wife, my second brother and I can sponsor you."
Second Brother Gu: ...When he saw his sister was going to give money to his eldest brother, he got so anxious!
But he didn't dare to say that his elder brother wanted to help Sheng Yueliang decorate her room because he had money, and if his sister got angry, she would not live in their house.
Seeing that his second brother was very anxious to give him money, Gu Jinghua quickly declined, saying, "Big brother doesn't want to get married yet, and I don't lack money to spend."
In fact, he was very short of money and he didn't know why his family had become so calculative!
While decorating the room, he casually mentioned that he wanted to help Yueliang decorate a room.
His grandfather, parents and second brother immediately said that they had no money and told him that from now on, all his medicine expenses would be deducted from his salary card.
Before, when he went to Jiaojiao's house to take care of his health, Jiaojiao paid for it, so he didn't know how expensive medicine was.
Since then, the money for his medicine has been deducted from his salary, excluding the examination fee.
Just according to the prescription written by Jiaojiao, his monthly salary is not enough for him to buy medicine, let alone food.
He said that he wanted to go to a stall with his second brother to sell pancakes, but his second brother refused outright, saying that he was in poor health and needed to rest more.
He was not a fool, and he knew that his grandfather, parents, and second brother were all wary of him, so he was depressed and his illness recurred.
As soon as Jiaojiao arrived, she asked about his condition. When she learned that he was depressed, her face suddenly turned pale.
He was so embarrassed to talk to her, but it turned out that his sister was still willing to give him money. How could he not be happy!
"Since Big Brother is not short of money for the time being, then wait patiently until the work is arranged before going to work. Big Brother, let's go to Second Brother's pancake stall and take a look."
Gu Jiaojiao had an idea in her mind. She would not help her elder brother to make money. She would just let him go to work and get a salary and live an ordinary life.
Otherwise, if he makes a lot of money one day, he will start helping Sheng Yueliang to do evil again!
"Okay, let's go shopping." Brother Gu responded happily.
So, the group drove out and headed straight for the most prosperous snack street in the capital.
At this time, the streets were still lined with buildings that were particularly old-fashioned, and the pedestrians on the road were not as hurried as in later generations.
Instead, he was riding his bicycle while laughing and talking, looking very happy and joyful.
There were few cars on the road at this time, and even motorcycles were relatively rare, but there were groups of bicycles.
The crisp sound of the bicycle bells is particularly clear and pleasant, mixed with the conversation and laughter of cyclists.
At this time, owning a bicycle can make people feel very fulfilled and happy.
Even in a big city like the imperial capital, this is still the case.
Gu Jiaojiao had witnessed the hustle and bustle of later generations and knew that the imperial capital was still in a stage of reconstruction.
It’s really not that prosperous or bustling, but it is many times more prosperous than in the past.
When they arrived near the night market, the young man from the Xiao family parked the car on the side of the road and walked over. There were still quite a lot of people at the night market.
Various vendors are shouting their wares, and the people visiting the night market are all young men and women, who are extremely energetic and have great purchasing power.
"Jiaojiao, do you want to eat roast duck? Second brother will buy one for you to try."
"Well, second brother, let's buy one and eat it together." Gu Jiaojiao really wanted to try what the roast duck of this era tastes like.
