The next morning, Mao Chenxiang looked at Mao Chenxu who was sleeping beside him, full of doubts.
Didn’t my second brother say that he was already a big boy and should learn to sleep alone?
Small head, big question mark.
Could it be that my second brother sleepwalked into his room last night?
When Mao Chenxu opened his eyes, he met Xiaobao's puzzled eyes.
He had intended to fool the little guy, but seeing that he couldn't fool him, he simply changed the subject.
It wasn't until I told him I would take him to play with Lin Manman that he forgot about what happened.
Before going to the Gu family, Mao Chenxu went to the black market first.
Because the transaction was decided at the last minute, he didn't have time to prepare the money.
There were also some things that had never been sold before, and he was not sure how to set a price for the time being.
They didn't settle the bill first.
He first settled the bills for the other goods and took them all to Gu's house.
The remaining ones will be calculated after they are sold.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and as the godson of the old couple, he also had to send festival gifts to the Gu family.
After choosing the gifts to be given and settling all the accounts, he drove Mao's car and took Xiaobao to Gu's house.
———
There was no cargo to be shipped these two days, and the transport team was relatively idle, so Gu Zhuoyuan simply did not go to work in the transport team.
Didn’t you see that even Mao Chenxu, the captain of the transport team, is idle all day long?
When the Mao brothers came over, Gu Zhuoyuan was chopping wood in the mountains.
Lin Manman and Qin Fangru carried baskets and went up the mountain to pick mushrooms and nuts!
This is the season when these things mature, and almost every step you take will bring you rewards.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had nothing to do at home, and it was impossible for them to go to the fields to work, so they went up the mountain together to be lazy.
Mao Chenxu was directly rejected.
He had no choice but to squat at the door with Xiaobao and wait. Looking at their appearance, they looked really miserable.
Xiao Bao asked doubtfully, "Brother, are we going to sleep on the street today?"
Mao Chenxu turned his head and looked at him deeply, wanting him to stop talking so badly.
But in the end, he still forced a smile and said, "How is that possible? Let's wait here, they will be back soon!"
Mao Chenxiang expressed doubts.
The suspicious look in his eyes clearly showed that he did not believe what his second brother said.
Otherwise, how could he not even get through the main door?
Lin Manman and the others didn't know this, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were almost having a blast picking up things in the mountains.
Even Gu Zhuoyuan stopped chopping wood and started picking chestnuts and hazelnuts.
He didn't stockpile much of these things at first, mainly because he had thought of everything else and forgot about this one.
It was not until the end that I found out that Lin Manman had just bought some online.
Now that there are free things to pick up, don’t they act like they have found a treasure?
What they pick up now is their personal property, but when the production team organizes people to go up the mountain, the things will become public property.
At that time, everything needed to be handed over to the production team and then distributed according to the number of people.
The production team would also take out a portion of the produce to sell for money, and each family would only get a very small amount.
In addition to them, there were many other children in the mountains, all busy picking up things.
The three of them picked up the items and secretly threw them into the space.
When they came to their senses, they found that the others had already left.
I looked at the time again, wow, it’s past work time!
The three of them quickly packed up their things, pretended to take a basket of nuts, and carried the chopped firewood back.
When they returned, everyone else had already returned.
When they saw the two Mao brothers sitting on small benches in the yard, the three of them were stunned for a moment.
"Second brother, why did you come here suddenly? Why didn't you tell me in advance yesterday? At least we could leave someone at home waiting for you today." Gu Zhuoyuan greeted.
As soon as he heard his voice, Mao Chenxiang's eyes lit up immediately.
As soon as he saw Lin Manman coming in, he immediately ran over.
When he was almost in front of Lin Manman, he immediately stopped.
"Sister Man, why did you come back just now?" he said aggrievedly.
That little expression must be so aggrieved, so aggrieved~
The two of them squatted at the door and waited until everyone else got off work before they were able to enter the Gu family's gate.
But the two brothers were not familiar with the other members of the Gu family, so they could only bring a small stool each and sit in the yard waiting for them to come back.
They were too embarrassed to even eat lunch.
The main thing is the lunch that Qian Duoduo cooked, but you can barely tell it's just rice...
Mao Chenxu held a bowl of rice and hesitated for a long time, not having the courage to fill a bowl and eat.
If you get an upset stomach from eating this, it will be more trouble than it’s worth!
It’s okay for him as an adult, but Xiaobao is still a child!
In the end, he put the bowl back, indicating that he was not that hungry.
But what is the reality?
He wasn't just hungry, he was very hungry!
After confirming that Lin Manman, Gu Zhuoyuan and the others were really at home, the two brothers could only endure hunger and sit in the yard waiting for them to come back.
Seeing Lin Manman at this moment, doesn’t Mao Chenxiang feel aggrieved?
He's almost fainting from hunger.
When Mao Chenxu saw them come back, he felt even closer to them than to his own parents!
"Godmother~ You're finally back! I'm so... happy! I'm so excited I almost cried!"
When Mao Chenxu finished speaking, his tone was almost tearful.
Qin Fangru quickly went to the kitchen to get some water to wash her hands and asked, "Waiter, Xiaochen, have you eaten yet? Where are the others? Why didn't they serve you?"
The two brothers immediately lost their temper. Mao Chenxu said aggrievedly, "I didn't eat! If it wasn't for you, godmother, cooking, I wouldn't be able to finish it!"
Qin Fangru was stunned for a moment, then thought of the mixture of food in the pot that looked like pig food...
She understood!
Originally, Li Zhaodi was the one who did the cooking at home. Qian Duoduo hadn't entered the kitchen or touched a shovel for many years.
Now that Li Zhaodi has gone to work, she is the only one who can be relied on to cook at home.
Can we still count on the two brothers Gu Zhuoming and Gu Zhuohui to cook?
That might be more difficult than the sun rising from the west!
Qian Duoduo’s cooking skills were not very good to begin with, but now after many years, he enters the kitchen again and it’s good enough that he can cook!
Only a few pigs like them can eat that pot of rice and food mixture!
"Wait a moment, let's cook some noodles and fry a few eggs. We also have some beef sauce to mix with it!" Qin Fangru said.
As for beef sauce, there is some ready-made in the space.
She moved quickly and cooked a pot of noodles in no time.
Each person also added two poached eggs with some beef sauce, which looked delicious.
