"Fourth brother and sister-in-law, why didn't you call me when you came to buy things? Fourth brother, I have something to tell you."
Pei Weidong saw the two large sacks of things in the car with a smile on his face. He thought Pei Xinghe was going to continue to do black market business, which was great news for him.
Now he works in a supply and marketing cooperative. He has priority in purchasing goods in the warehouse that do not require invoices, and can make money by reselling them on the black market.
"Let's talk at home tonight! Bring Xiaohua and Su Xue home for dinner."
Pei Xinghe saw someone following Pei Weidong. He knew this person. He was Director Ma, the head of the purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative. He was the one who often invited Pei Weidong to dinner a few days ago.
"Sure! Xiaoxue is nagging about going to see Fourth Sister-in-law. I'll take her there tonight."
Ever since being beaten by Pei Xinghe, Pei Weidong has not dared to drink with others. This time he came here because his leader wanted to get to know the fourth brother and asked him to come and mediate.
But during this time he came to his senses and realized that things were not as simple as he thought!
Fourth brother said that it would be fine to talk at his house in the evening. He had some questions for him and he didn’t want to work at the supply and marketing cooperative anymore.
He can't make as much money as in the black market. The key is that the people here are too cunning and he doesn't like dealing with them.
"Director, who is this? You bought two sacks of stuff and left. Why didn't you go through the front door?"
Minister Ma became anxious when he saw people leave. He knew Pei Xinghe and heard that he had a lot of sources of goods. He wanted the sources of goods, which was why he contacted Pei Weidong.
They were robbing the black market in Gaoling County, and the source of goods was essential. Looking at Pei Weidong, a calculation flashed in his eyes.
"Hey! I bought some leftover cotton from the warehouse. We need to make a few quilts for a wedding at home. Please help us clear out the stock."
Before Pei Weidong and Pei Xiuzhen could speak, the director of the supply and marketing cooperative took over the conversation.
Since his immediate superior was speaking, Minister Ma naturally had nothing to say.
This matter can only be left unresolved.
Gu Qingmeng and Pei Xinghe went home and sorted out their things and put them in the space. They only bought four iron pots. The industrial tickets they had were only enough to buy four iron pots, and they were all small ones.
"These things are enough for you to change. If you need anything, just take it from the space. Can you pack some thick clothes to take with you? I'll go cook."
Gu Qingmeng knew that Pei Xinghe would leave early the next morning, so in addition to preparing dinner, she also had to prepare food for the train.
Dumplings are indispensable, followed by dried meat and fried noodles. If you get tired of the boxed lunches on the train, you can change the taste. The chili sauce is ready-made. I made a jar for my cousins yesterday and brought it out.
Gu Qingmeng kneaded another bowl of dough, planning to make dumplings in the evening. She would make more and give them to Pei Xinghe tomorrow, and would not cook any other dishes in the evening.
Considering that there would be so many people around, Gu Qingmeng made two kinds of fillings: pork and cabbage and pork and sauerkraut.
Thinking that Su Xue was pregnant, she also wanted to stew a pot of chicken soup so that her grandfather could drink it.
After Gu Qingmeng finished mincing the pork with the mincer in the space, she went next door to call for help. Guodong and Guoliang had been in a daze from time to time these past two days, and it would be better if they did some work.
Gu Jun also came back with Gu Qingmeng. The three of them were ordered around by her, some chopping the stuffing, some lighting the fire, and some kneading the dough.
Pei Xinghe was killing chickens and plucking their feathers. Pei Xinghe didn't trust anyone else to do this because he could always eat the chicken down.
When Gu Qingmeng saw that the food was almost ready, she started to steam the buns. She steamed one pot of original buns and one pot of sugar-coated buns.
"Sister, do we need to freeze the dumplings after we wrap them?"
"Your sister Su Xue and the others will be here soon. Leave enough food for us to eat and freeze."
Gu Qingmeng didn't know how to comfort her two younger brothers for the pain of losing their mother, but she knew that when people are busy, they won't be able to take care of anything else. Her two younger brothers will go to school in March. It was agreed before that they would go to the second grade of junior high school, but now she has changed her mind and decided to go directly to high school!
In one month, she believed in her brothers' abilities and believed they would definitely be able to get into high school!
"You've brought your textbooks, right? You have your high school textbooks too. I think you should take the high school entrance exam when school starts!"
If they fail the exam, they can go to junior high school. However, Gu Qingmeng didn’t say this, so the Gu Guodong brothers thought that their sister really wanted them to go directly to junior high school.
"Mengmeng baby, I'm here."
The voice came in before Su Xueren came in, mixed with Pei Weidong's voice telling her to slow down and be careful.
Gu Qingmeng went out to greet her. She hadn't seen Su Xue for many days. Tian Liping had passed away and Su Xue was pregnant and couldn't attend. The two hadn't seen each other since the Chinese New Year.
"Walk slowly, you're a bit conscious of being a pregnant woman."
Seeing Su Xue walking with big strides, Gu Qingmeng's heart trembled, and it was hard for Pei Xiaohua to jog after her.
"You are just too worried! What impact can something the size of a peanut have on me? Have my brother and the others left?" Su Xue said nonchalantly.
"Leave."
Gu Qingmeng couldn't do anything to her. When Su Xue walked into the room and saw the Gu Guodong brothers, she gave each of them a hug and didn't say anything else.
She knew that comfort would be of no use in matters like losing one's mother, and only time could heal the pain.
After eating dumplings in the evening, Su Xue learned that Pei Xinghe was going on a business trip and would be gone for a month, and she immediately became excited.
Isn’t this a bit awkward?
A month! She can eat and sleep with her bestie for a month, a perfect world for the two of them.
"Fourth brother, don't worry and go! Leave Mengmeng to me. I'll stay with her."
Pei Xinghe: ...
Although...even if he really wanted Su Xue to accompany his wife, why did these words sound so infuriating coming from his mouth?
"When are you still on a business trip?" Su Xue wanted to ask with a smile on her face.
Pei Xinghe: ...
He hasn't left this time yet? This person is already thinking about next time. How infuriating!
"Fourth brother, it's too late today! Let's go back first." Pei Weidong was particularly sensitive to Pei Xinghe's emotional changes.
After all, they grew up together. He had no idea what was going on in his cousin's head, but he could still sense that he was angry.
"Well, I'll take you there."
He said it was a gift, but actually he had something to say to Pei Weidong.
"Grandpa Gu, Uncle Gu, we're going back first. I'll come see you tomorrow."
Su Xue said goodbye happily and winked at Gu Qingmeng before leaving.
Gu Qingmeng knew that Su Xue would definitely enter the space when she came! She hadn't told her about the changes in her space yet. She would definitely be shocked tomorrow!
Why do I suddenly feel a little bit excited?
"My dear, Xinghe has been out for quite a while. Isn't it inappropriate for Xiaoxue to accompany you all the time? Let Guodong and Guoliang accompany you!"
Gu Jun was afraid that Pei Weidong would have an opinion. After all, they were newlyweds, and Su Xue was pregnant. If something happened, wouldn’t his daughter be unable to explain herself?
"It's okay, don't be polite with Xiaoxue. Guodong and Guoliang need to study during this period. Let them take the high school entrance examination in March, otherwise you will have to accompany them."
Accompanying them to study is a small matter. The key is that the two of them are like melancholy teenagers, so they should get busy studying!
Gu Huaian and Gu Jun both agreed with Gu Qingmeng's words. It would be better for the two brothers to go to high school, and then they would find someone to send them to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
When they are sent to the army in the future, their young age will be an advantage for them.
