Chapter 22 Find a good wife for my brother
"Xiao Jing! Xiao Jing!"
Gu Ruihuai shouted a few times at her back, and when he looked at Gu Yuehuai again, his expression was very cold. His fists hanging at his sides were clenched tightly, and his finger bones were blue. It seemed that he was trying to suppress the anger in his heart.
He closed his eyes and did not swing his fist at Gu Yuehuai.
"Don't mess with Tian Jing in the future, otherwise, my fists will not show mercy." Gu Ruihuai said coldly, brushed past Gu Yuehuai and went into the house.
Gu Yuehuai stood with his head down, his face calm, as if he didn't hear what he said.
She waited for a while and Gu Tinghuai came back.
"Nannan, are you cold? Why don't you go back to the house and wait?" Gu Tinghuai said with some anger.
Gu Yuehuai smiled, not showing any displeasure: "It's not cold! How about big brother, did the branch secretary agree?"
Gu Tinghuai smiled and nodded, jokingly saying, "Just sow some seeds in front of and behind the house, what's wrong with that? Uncle Wang Fu also advised me that our family should work and earn work points honestly, and not run around all the time. If we don't settle down when we should be married, the new daughter-in-law will definitely not want to follow me if she sees that there is no future in life."
Gu Yuehuai paused, curled up the corners of his lips and said: "Brother is so handsome, there must be many girls in the surrounding area who like him!"
Gu Tinghuai raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Is it true? Then I will prepare to beat the gongs and drums to welcome the new daughter-in-law."
The brother and sister looked at each other and both laughed.
Gu Yuehuai looked at the smile on his eldest brother's face and felt a little sad, because he really didn't marry in his previous life. Instead, he died for her in the prime of his life.
In this life, she will definitely find a good wife for her eldest brother so that they can live in harmony!
"By the way, we have spinach seeds at home. Now is the season. How about we plant some spinach?" Gu Yuehuai said as he went to the grocery store. Gu Yuehuai followed behind and agreed, "Okay! Spinach is good. Spinach is nutritious."
Gu Tinghuai laughed and scolded: "Haha, what do you know about nutrition, little girl?"
Gu Yuehuai did not refute and followed him into the grocery store. As soon as he pushed the door open, a pungent damp smell hit him.
There were sickles, hoes, pickaxes and other farm tools in the house, with sparse peppers and corns hanging on the wall. It wasn't a lot of things, but no one in the family knew how to clean up, so it looked messy.
After searching the house for a while, I finally found the cloth bag wrapped in rapeseed.
"Here, brother, go and hoe the wasteland behind the house so that it will be easier for you to plant." Gu Tinghuai said as he picked up the hoe. Just as he was about to go to work, Gu Yuehuai hurriedly stopped him.
Tian Jing is at home now. If they go to hoe the fields now, they might alert the enemy.
Her real purpose is not to grow vegetables, so it doesn't matter if it's earlier or later.
"Brother, you haven't slept all night. Go back and lie down for a while. Leave the vegetable garden to me. This will also let the second and third brothers know that I have really changed. Brother, don't take away my credit."
Gu Tinghuai couldn't help but laugh at his sister's overbearing appearance: "Okay! I won't take away your credit, but if there's any heavy work you can't do, come and call me, okay?"
Gu Yuehuai nodded repeatedly: "I know, I know! Big brother, go back and have a rest."
Gu Tinghuai smiled, shook his head, and turned to go into the house.
There was no one around, and the expression on Gu Yuehuai's face turned cold.
She glanced indifferently at the yard of Tian Jing's house next door, listening to the faint curses of the drunkard coming from inside, with a sneer on her face. Tian Dayou always made Tian Jing even more unhappy when she was most unhappy, and she was very satisfied.
Gu Yuehuai kicked the seeds into his pocket and walked out of the yard.
This time, she went to Huang Fengying's house.
Tian Jing is at home today, so it is not suitable for her to start digging the vegetable field. She plans to think of another way to earn as much money as possible. After all, she cannot sit idle.
When she arrived at Huang Fengying's house, several girls were jumping rope in her yard.
It is time to go home for lunch at noon. Otherwise, children of seven or eight years old would have to participate in collective labor to earn work points. How could they have time to jump rubber rope in the yard?
Several girls also saw Gu Yuehuai and made faces at her, laughing at her.
Gu Yuehuai didn't care and waved to the little girl who was skipping rubber rope. She was wearing a red cotton jacket that was 80% new and without any patches. Her hair was tied with two braids with red hairbands. It was obvious that she lived a good life at home.
A girl holding a rubber band saw it and shouted, "Ding Xinxin, Gu Yuehuai is calling you!"
Ding Xinxin was the little girl in a red cotton jacket. She reluctantly stopped and walked to the yard, asking in a bad tone, "What are you doing?"
Gu Yuehuai didn't care about the little girl's temper and said with a smile: "Xinxin, I heard Director Huang said that she bought you a box of colored pencils? Can I see it?"
Ding Xinxin was stunned, looked at her suspiciously, and said, "My mother bought it for me a long time ago, and you just found out about it?"
When she first bought that box of colored pencils, she took it out to play every day. Who in the team didn't know that she had a box of colored pencils? It was already this late when Gu Yuehuai came over to ask.
Gu Yuehuai pursed his lips.
She only knew that Ding Xinxin was the only one in the village who had colored pencils, but she never cared when she bought them. She mentioned this just to have something to talk about.
"I just heard about it too, so I came to see it. I heard that it sells for more than one yuan in the supply and marketing cooperative! Hiss - that's enough to buy two kilograms of meat!" Gu Yuehuai deliberately used an envious tone, making the eight-year-old girl feel a little flattered.
She tilted her neck and said, "Of course! Those are used by people in the city! I'm the only one in our team who has it! Do you want to see it? Wait a minute, I'll go in and look for it!"
Children always want to show off. When they heard what Gu Yuehuai said, they were eager to show off.
Not long after Ding Xinxin entered the room, she came back holding a long box that was four fingers wide. There were trendy cartoon characters printed on the box, but she had forgotten what it was called.
"Look, my colored pencils! The drawings are so beautiful!" Ding Xinxin said, and she held up the letter paper in her hand high so that Gu Yuehuai could see the drawings she made with colored pencils.
The eight-year-old girl had never learned to paint, so the trees and flowers she drew were crooked and had no aesthetic appeal.
Of course, Gu Yuehuai would not say this.
She took the colored pencils and looked at them. A few of them were missing and some were even broken. Looking at the dust on them, she knew that the little girl had just given up on them and threw them into the corner after a short while.
Gu Yuehuai reached out and touched Ding Xinxin's head, and said, "You draw very well, but there is still room for improvement. Do you want me to teach you?"
"You teach me?" Ding Xinxin looked at Gu Yuehuai with suspicion. It was not that she looked down on her. In the entire Dalaozi Production Brigade, from the elderly to the children, almost no one looked down on Gu Yuehuai.
Ding Xinxin grabbed back her colored pencils and asked, "You haven't learned it before, how can you draw? Are you trying to cheat me of my colored pencils?"
