Chapter 97: Women, Beauty Is Enough
Gu Tianfeng looked at Gu Zhifeng's expectant expression, sighed slightly, and finally nodded.
Gu Yinfeng curled her lips, somewhat unhappy, but the bulging money in her pocket made her unable to leave. Forget it, she would save money on each meal, and it would be porridge and pickles, she would not be picky.
Moreover, she also wanted to ask where Gu Zhifeng had made his fortune to earn so much money!
She worked in a cotton mill, but neither her income nor benefits were as good as her elder brother Gu Tianfeng's. In addition, there were many children in the family, so she was usually a little stretched. Fortunately, her husband had a say in the factory, otherwise she would not have been able to make ends meet.
If Gu Zhifeng really has a way to make money, then she will be able to stand up straighter at home in the future, right?
Gu Yuehuai knew what Gu Yinfeng was thinking just by looking at her expression. He originally didn't bother to pay attention to her, but when he saw Gu Zhifeng preparing dinner with a smile on her face, he pursed his lips, not wanting to spoil his father's interest.
He had been depressed for some time because of the matter between Lin Jinshu and Gu Ruihuai, and finally he smiled.
Gu Yuehuai handed Yan Shaotang to the idler Gu Xihuai, went into the house, bolted the door, and took out ten eggs and an old hen from the Sumeru space. The rabbit had grown a lot, but it was still too early to eat meat.
Gu Yuehuai left the space and left the room with the hen and eggs.
Gu Yinfeng had been keeping an eye on her niece whose temperament had changed drastically. She had originally wondered why she went into the house and locked the door, but when she turned around and saw her take out an old hen and some eggs from the house, her eyes began to light up.
She jumped off the kang, took a few steps forward eagerly, looked at the things in Gu Yuehuai's hand, and couldn't help but smile happily: "Oh! Nannan has hidden chickens in this room? Such fat hens, they must be expensive, right? And these eggs..."
"Oh, Zhifeng, life at home is so good now, better than what my brother and I lived in the city!"
As she said that, she turned around and glanced at Gu Zhifeng, and looked up to this stupid and short-sighted brother again. She had originally thought that she would have to eat pickles and sweet potatoes tonight, but she didn't expect that she could also eat chicken!
Gu Tianfeng was not greedy at all. He had eaten too much meat in the past, so his eyes were not so shallow.
However, he knew very well how Gu Zhifeng's family lived. Although his younger brother had studied abroad when he was young, unfortunately he did not live up to his expectations. In the end, even though he escaped the label of being a landlord, he could not get rid of it.
He was a well-known street scoundrel in the production brigade, and usually did small business secretly.
I had thought that my brother would be arrested and put in jail sooner or later, but I didn't expect that he would get lucky. I don't know where he got the money from, but my family could even have chicken and eggs to eat.
Gu Tinghuai took the hen and said in a daze, "Nannan?"
Gu Yuehuai was not panicked. He curled the corners of his lips and said, "I took Shaotang to the commune to buy it at noon today."
After that, without waiting for Gu Tinghuai to respond, she said, "Brother, go and clean up the chicken. I'll cook."
"Hey!" Gu Tinghuai responded, boiled some hot water in a pot, and took it outside the yard to deal with it.
Gu Yuehuai was cutting vegetables and preparing the same thing as at noon. He would fry a big plate of chicken, which was economical and filling. As for the meal, there was nothing else at home, just brown rice, stewed with water from the space well, and the taste was also amazing.
Dad Gu Zhifeng values sibling ties. Although uncle and aunt each have their shortcomings, they never did anything excessive in their previous lives. She still has the magnanimity to cook a meal for them in this life.
It is better to be kind to others than to do evil to them.
While Gu Yuehuai was cutting side dishes and stewing brown rice, Gu Zhifeng was not idle either.
He, Gu Tianfeng and Gu Yinfeng were sitting on the kang, and he asked hesitantly, "Are the two girls from my eldest sister's family going to the countryside to join the production team?"
"Of course not. The higher-ups have called for the educated youth to go to the countryside to explore the vast world of the countryside." Gu Yinfeng said with her chest puffed out, looking like an educated person. After she finished speaking, she sighed deeply, "Those naughty kids in my family have to go too."
The educated youth were the urban educated youth, and the sent-down youth meant that the educated youth put down their books and went from the city to the countryside, where they were assigned to production teams and earned work points, dividends and rations like ordinary members of the commune.
Speaking of this, Gu Yinfeng was full of complaints again: "In cities, families with many children can only keep one child, and the others have to go to the countryside. If they insist on staying in the city, they won't be given a job. Tell me, how can people live without a job?"
Gu Zhifeng couldn't get a word in, after all, his family was from a rural production team and didn't need to go to the countryside.
Gu Tianfeng was a little annoyed by her sister's pretentiousness, and frowned and said, "Going to the countryside is the only way for revolutionary youth. What do you have to say? If the directors hear this, they will see if they can arrange a good job for your child."
"Don't even mention us. The Perlan family is an official. Don't they have to go to the countryside?"
"We must obey the arrangements and calls from above and be good comrades!"
Gu Yuehuai couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard these righteous words.
My uncle and aunt favored boys over girls. They had two daughters and one son in the family. When it came time to send their daughters to the countryside to work in the fields, they sent their precious only son home. Of course, they didn't think there was anything wrong with going to the countryside to suffer, and on the contrary, it could help them find a good job for their son.
Gu Yinfeng obviously knew it all and couldn't help but roll her eyes at Gu Tianfeng.
However, she never liked to offend people, and she was even more unwilling to offend her elder brother who worked in a meat processing factory.
Gu Zhifeng took a sip of water, was silent for a while, and asked, "Big sister, would you please... please ask both of your families to come over?"
Gu Tianfeng didn't say anything, but Gu Yinfeng rolled her eyes and said, "Zhifeng, do you want to go too? How about I talk to my elder sister and you go over there too?"
Gu Zhifeng moved her lips and was about to speak when she heard Gu Yuehuai, who was busy at the side, say, "Dad, you have to go to work. You don't have time to attend the farewell banquet hosted by my aunt."
When Gu Ruihuai was hospitalized, she met Nie Peilan in the county clinic and understood her attitude towards the Gu family.
If her father really left without asking, who knows how he would be humiliated. Moreover, he hadn't contacted her for more than ten years, so why would he rush to give her child fifty yuan? It was too ridiculous to say it!
Others can recognize this relative if they want, but their family will not have anything to do with it.
Hearing this, Gu Zhifeng glanced at Gu Yuehuai and nodded, "Nannan is right."
Gu Yinfeng cleared her throat and suddenly laughed, "Really not going? I heard that Lin Jinshu is going!"
She was also shocked when she heard the news about Lin Jinshu a few days ago. For so many years, she thought that she had died outside. She didn't expect to get news about her again from her eldest sister.
She really didn't expect that the arrogant young lady who was so high-minded and looked down on everyone after marrying into the Gu family would have such an experience after running away from the countryside. She actually married the secretary of the Huangying Commune and became the wife of an official!
However, when I thought of her face, I felt relieved. After all, a beautiful woman will always have a good future.
Thinking of this, Gu Yinfeng couldn't help but look back at Gu Yuehuai. If this girl dressed up and lost some weight, she would be prettier than her mother. She didn't know if she could find a good man who was an official like her mother in the future.
