Chapter 46 Who Cares About Your Food?
Gu Ruihuai rushed out and pushed Gu Yuehuai aside.
"Xiaojing! Are you okay, Xiaojing? Stop crying." Gu Ruihuai squatted on the ground, looking at Tian Jing who was choking with sobs, his face full of helplessness. When he turned to look at Gu Yuehuai, the disgust in his eyes almost burst out of his pupils.
He tried hard to suppress the anger in his chest and lowered his voice: "We don't need this piece of land, so what's wrong with letting Xiaojing use it? Gu Yuehuai, you are always so narrow-minded and selfish, it's annoying to look at you!"
Hearing this, Tian Jing raised her head, her eyes red like a harmless little rabbit.
She gently tugged at Gu Ruihuai's sleeve, and whispered with a slight sob of grievance: "Second Brother Gu... don't say that, it's all my fault."
Gu Ruihuai looked at her with pity and consoled her: "How can this be your fault? I have already agreed to let you farm, so you should farm this land. Ignore her. It is not her turn to make decisions in my family now."
Tian Jing raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yuehuai, with a flash of pride and provocation in her eyes.
Gu Yuehuai suddenly chuckled, and the laugh became louder. Gu Ruihuai frowned and said, "What are you laughing at!"
"I'm laughing at your stupidity and your ignorance. This family is not my turn to make the decision, but do you think you can make the decision? Tian Jing, you want to take this piece of land, but as long as I'm alive, it's impossible!" Gu Yuehuai's voice was cold and loud.
Gu Ruihuai was shocked. He never knew that his stupid sister Gu Yuehuai could have such a powerful aura.
Tian Jingze's expression changed slightly, and she looked at Gu Yuehuai's expression carefully.
But Gu Yuehuai's eyes were deep, and there was no visible emotion at all, making it impossible for her to tell whether she knew that there was something under the land, or whether she just stumbled upon it by accident and simply hated her.
At this moment, Gu Zhifeng's voice suddenly rang out from behind: "What's going on? What are you arguing about?"
Gu Ruihuai frowned. He knew best that his father was partial to Gu Yuehuai. He was afraid that Tian Jing would be disappointed this time.
Gu Tinghuai knew what was going on at a glance. He said in a somewhat cold voice, "I have already talked to the Party Secretary about this piece of land. We will grow some vegetables ourselves."
Gu Ruihuai shouted unhappily: "Brother!"
Gu Zhifeng glanced at Gu Ruihuai who was squatting on the ground to comfort Tian Jing. He was too lazy to care about this useless son and directly pulled Gu Yuehuai and said, "Let's go home."
"Tian Jing, don't even think about this piece of land." Before leaving, Gu Yuehuai did not forget to express his wishes.
"Okay, second brother, go home. Let the third brother come over this afternoon to turn the land over and plant the vegetables." Gu Tinghuai said.
His words were already polite, but to Gu Ruihuai and Tian Jing, it was no less than a slap in the face. Looking at the land that had been hoed for more than half, Tian Jing's eyes were frosty.

Gu Yuehuai went home, made noodles with cornmeal, and used the leftover chicken soup from last night as topping.
The family simply ate a bowl of chicken soup and cornmeal. After the meal, Gu Yuehuai pulled Gu Zhifeng into the house and told her carefully, "Dad, the area behind our house was originally where we buried treasures. We must not let others plant it, lest it be discovered."
Gu Zhifeng nodded heavily: "Don't worry, Nannan, Dad knows!"
While the father and daughter were talking in the house, Gu Xihuai's surprised voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Second brother, what are you doing with the grain bag?"
Gu Zhifeng felt a headache and knew with her toes that her second son was causing trouble again!
Gu Yuehuai was calm. He and Gu Zhifeng lifted the curtain and went out. At a glance, they saw Gu Ruihuai who was about to go out with a bag of grain in his hand. If Gu Xihuai hadn't stopped him, he would have run away long ago.
Gu Zhifeng frowned and shouted, "Put the grain bag down for me!"
"No!" Gu Ruihuai said in a rather annoyed tone, "If you don't allow me to plant the land, I should at least return the crops, right? We are all neighbors, there is no need to be so ruthless, right?"
Hearing this nonsense, Gu Zhifeng felt dizzy.
Gu Yuehuai watched coldly. She suddenly felt that blindly tolerating Gu Ruihuai out of guilt might not be good for him. If she continued like this, he would only become more and more extreme, and it was not impossible that he would even break up with his family for Tian Jing.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuehuai stepped forward, grabbed the grain bag, and said in a calm and cold voice: "This grain was rewarded to me by Director Wang. If you want to return it to Tian Jing, you can earn work points and pay it back yourself."
Hearing this, Gu Ruihuai was stunned and his face suddenly turned red.
He let go of his hand and yelled at Gu Yuehuai: "Go ahead and earn it! Who wants your food?!"
After Gu Ruihuai finished speaking, he opened the door and ran out. Gu Tinghuai, who was washing dishes in the yard, looked at him running away and shouted a few times, wondering, "What happened again? Where is Lao Er?"
Gu Xihuai shook his head: "Second brother wants to return 30 kilograms of grain to Tian Jing."
Upon hearing this, Gu Tinghuai's face turned dark.
"Let's all sit down and rest for a while." Gu Yuehuai put down the grain bag, took out a clay pot from the room, poured water into the pot and heated it up. Each person drank a bowl of hot well water so that they could save some energy for work in the afternoon.
"This water tastes good." Gu Xihuai drank it for the first time and also felt that the water had a sweet taste, but when he thought that there was no sugar at home, he attributed it to an illusion. However, after drinking a bowl of water, he felt quite clear-headed, so he went back to the room to read.
After drinking the water, Gu Yuehuai said, "Dad, big brother, I'm going back to the room to rest for a while."
As soon as she returned to the room, she closed the door, entered the Sumeru space, and rolled up her sleeves to work.
The second crop of wheat ears had matured, so she harvested them all and sowed the third crop of seeds. What was even more gratifying was the red dates on the jujube trees, which looked like red agates and almost covered the branches!
The fragrance of dates is intoxicating, and the branches are bent with dates the size of a baby's fist.
Gu Yuehuai didn't mind the dirtiness, he picked one and put it in his mouth. It was crisp, sweet and delicious.
She sighed, looking at the pile of fruits, and prepared to come back in the evening to work overtime to pick them. She would also take some time to go to the black market to sell all the grain and dates, thus solving the debt problem and reducing a lot of troubles at home.
Gu Yuehuai MLZL was busy for a while, left the Xumi space, and went to work at the breeding place.
The lines of the first mural have been drawn. In the near distance are piles of harvested grain. Several grinning members are sitting next to the grain. There are men and women, young and old, and each of them has a longing and hope for life on their face.
Further away are rivers and terraced fields, lush green and full of vitality.
The river flows, the bamboo rafts drift slowly, and on the river dam there are large characters written in the distance: "Learn from Dazhai in Agriculture".
In the evening, when the sun had set and Gu Yuehuai was still sketching the details on the mural in the dark, the members put down their bowls and came to the breeding office to record their work points.
As soon as they entered the door, the crowd was attracted by the huge wall painting.
"Who drew this? It's so beautiful!"
"It's Gu Yuehuai! The girl of the Gu family has this ability?" With this exclamation, someone saw Gu Yuehuai who was drawing with a pen. Chen Yuesheng stood in front, looking at Gu Yuehuai who was standing under the wall with a serious expression with an unbelievable look on his face.
He had known Gu Yuehuai for so many years, but he had never known that she could paint, and that she was so good at it.
