Chapter 31 No Work = No Food



evening.

After a day's work, Gu Chongshan and Qin Fangru finally returned exhausted.

With Gu Zhuoyuan's help in the afternoon, they both felt a little more relaxed.

Although they have the muscle memory of their original bodies, they are still a little uncomfortable.

When the three of them came back, they started talking about gossip in the production team.

In the afternoon, I heard that Er Laizi and Wang Ermaizi from the production team had encountered a ghost!

Almost everyone working in the fields heard them crying for their parents.

The sound was so shrill and penetrating that it was hard for anyone not to hear it!

However, at times like this, most people don't dare to mention these things, for fear of being regarded as feudal superstition.

Those two guys were famous lazy hooligans in the production team, and no one wanted to bother with them!

Of course, no one wanted to verify whether it was a ghost or not, and they just treated it as a joke.

After they came back, Lin Manman took Mao Chenxiang out of the room.

Gu Chongshan and Qin Fangru also knew Mao Chenxiang's background, so naturally they didn't ask anything.

However, when they saw the cold stove, it was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

Li Zhaodi and her two daughters haven’t come back yet!

Qian Duoduo did come back. She had been out visiting friends all afternoon and only came home at dinner time.

Lin Manman was also surprised.

She and Mao Chenxiang fell asleep while waiting, and when they heard some noise in the yard, they realized they had overslept.

Qin Fangru called Gu Zhuohui and asked, "Second brother, where are your wife and the two girls?"

Gu Zhuohui was beaten up in the afternoon and felt great pain all over his body, so he went back to his room to sleep.

When he was called out, he was still in a daze.

He scratched his head and said, "Oh, Zhaodi has gone back to her parents' home with those two money-losing girls!

It seems like her mother or father is about to die, and they want her to go back to attend the funeral!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Chongshan slapped him on the head.

"What kind of funeral are you attending? They're not even dead yet, and you're already making such a fuss? What, are you hoping they'll die?

That's your father-in-law's business. Why don't you go along? Let Zhaodi take the two girls back alone?

Since you don’t want to travel far, then go to the fields to work for me tomorrow!

And you, Gu Zhuoming! And the eldest brother's wife, you all have to go to the fields and earn work points tomorrow!

"The second son's wife has something to do, and you have something to do too? All you do is sit there and wait for food, right?"

They are already tired after a day's work, and now they have to see these terrible things when they come home. How can they be in a good mood?

One or two of them just eat for free all day long. Do they really expect pie to fall from the sky?

Why is the Gu family so poor?

Aren’t they all just lazy people?

With only the original couple and "Gu Zhuoyuan" as the three of them supporting a whole family, who else would be poor if not them?

Although they now have supplies and space, it is impossible to support these idle people unconditionally!

Qian Duoduo: "Dad, I still have to take care of the child! The child is still young and can't leave me alone! I won't go out to the fields, right?

Isn't my third sister-in-law okay? Why don't you let her work? Isn't that a bit unfair?"

Gu Zhuoyuan sneered out loud.

"I'm taking care of my wife, so there's no need for you, a busy sister-in-law, to worry about her!

I earn enough work points by myself, and with the help from my father-in-law, it is enough to support her!

If sister-in-law has the free time, she should think about what her family is going to eat next!

There is no food left at home. The food we have now is borrowed from my father-in-law's house.

"Big brother, big sister-in-law, second brother, please don't eat for now. I'm afraid you won't have enough food to pay back!"

After saying this, Gu Zhuoyuan pulled Lin Manman into the kitchen.

Lin Manman turned around and said, "Dad, Mom, you two should take a rest first and help me take care of Xiaochen. Dinner will be ready soon!"

After the two entered the kitchen, they closed the door directly.

Gu Zhuoyuan put water in the pot, sat behind the stove, and started to light a fire to boil water.

"Brother Yuan, it's getting late. You and Mom and Dad must be hungry after a busy day. Let's just cook noodles for dinner!" Lin Manman suggested.

This is the fastest way to eat it right now.

Gu Zhuoyuan nodded. He didn’t have any big opinion on what to eat. As long as there was something to eat, it was fine.

After the water in the pot boiled, Lin Manman took out a handful of noodles, estimated the amount of rice for four large children and one small child, and put the noodles into the pot.

Then she took the rice bowl from home and put a spoonful of lard and some instant noodle seasoning in it.

After the noodles were cooked, Lin Manman first made some soup to dissolve the lard and seasonings, then rinsed the noodles with cold water and put them into a bowl.

After she finished, Gu Zhuoyuan washed the pot.

After the kitchen was cleaned, the two of them took the noodles and bowls and chopsticks and went directly to the old couple's room.

After they left, the people outside went into the kitchen at the same time.

When they saw the clean pot and the empty kitchen, they were completely discouraged.

They thought Gu Zhuoyuan was just saying those words out of anger, but who would have thought that they actually did it!

All the food and money earned by the Gu family are in the hands of the old couple.

It is not ruled out that they have some private money, but considering their lazy and gluttonous nature, it definitely won’t be much!

After their outburst today, they have to go to the fields to work even if they don’t want to!

If you don't work, you won't have food to eat.

As long as they want to live well and fill their stomachs, they must accept their fate!

Who made them run into trouble today?

Gu Zhuoyuan is someone who others say can do it, but he absolutely cannot do it for Lin Manman!

With so many of them working, how could they not be able to support Lin Manman alone?

Besides, they still have space and so many supplies. Even if Lin Manman eats, drinks and has fun every day, they won’t really be unable to survive!

When the children saw that they really had no food to eat, they started to make a fuss. Only Gu Xing'er squatted in the corner silently without saying a word.

Qin Fangru had already told her last night to come to her every night.

Last night, she and her two sisters not only drank sweet milk, but also ate two delicious cookies.

She knew she wouldn't go hungry.

Qin Fangru repeatedly told the three of them not to tell anyone what they ate or did!

Don’t tell anyone!

If this gets out, we won’t be able to eat these things.

If her father and mother kept asking, she would say that she was going to help twist the hemp rope.

Gu Xing'er did everything she was told and refused to say a single word.

She knew that her father didn't love her and her mother didn't care about her. If she wanted to live well in this family, she had to listen to her grandparents!
