Chapter 123 The Future Son-in-Law Arrives
He Jinqiu is somewhat worried about the Ye family's plan to start a clothing business.
The main reason is that my eldest daughter is now treating this as a career and has borrowed money from the bank, and I’m worried that she’s under too much pressure.
Meng Shulan said: "Mom, it's okay. Once these people start to get the hang of it, we will add more categories and start the transformation, so that those people will be unable to catch up even if they want to learn.
It is inevitable to have rivals in the business world. Even if there is no Ye family, there are still the Zhang family and the Li family."
That's true too.
He Jinqiu sighed.
In the past, their business was the only one in the town, so it was no surprise that they made money quickly.
Now, things start to get difficult.
When the car arrived in the town, the three of them happened to meet Meng Changli who was buying meat and vegetables at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Meng Changli bought pork belly and large bones. There was no market today and there were no live fish for sale in the town, so she also ordered two dried salted fish, which would be delicious if steamed later.
"Shulan, didn't Gu Hansong come to town with you? When will he come?"
Meng Shulan: "He is still in the city for something, but he has agreed to come over at noon."
"Oh, I see. Just agree."
Several people took a car to the yard. Meng Changli said that she had found two second-hand sewing machines from the bus driver in the town and they had made an appointment to go there tomorrow to inspect the goods and pay for them in person.
If we can get these two sewing machines, the output can be tripled, and we can set up stalls in several nearby towns.
Back in the yard, the family divided the work.
He Jinqiu prepared lunch, Meng Changli continued to operate the sewing machine, and Meng Fude repaired the table in the yard, banging away at things everywhere.
Meng Shulan went to her room, closed the door and read.
The end of the semester is approaching, and she hopes to do better in the exam two weeks later.
Near noon, there was a knock on the door. Meng Shulan put down her pen and looked out the window, just in time to see Meng Fude opening the door and welcoming Gu Hansong.
This guy is really punctual. He'll be there before noon if he says so.
But what about the two bags of things he was holding?
Meng Shulan took a closer look and opened her mouth unconsciously.
He, he...
I clearly invited him to dinner and I should thank him properly, so why did he come here with gifts, and two bags at that.
And look at the colors, there’s wine, sugar, and nutritional supplements that can only be bought in the city.
This person!!!
Meng Shulan originally wanted to put down the book and go out to greet them and have a chat.
I suddenly felt embarrassed and my face turned red.
He was dressed so neatly, in a coat, suit and leather shoes, and was carrying so many things, he looked like a future son-in-law visiting his mother-in-law's house to see his wife, which made her heart beat faster.
Although Meng Shulan was ready to talk things out with him, they hadn't talked it out yet. If he did this and someone found out, it would be difficult to deal with. After all, she hadn't said those things yet. To be honest, she had no idea what he would think after he knew.
Meng Shulan's heart began to beat faster and she began to stomp around the room.
At this time, Gu Hansong had already entered the room. Everyone put down what they were doing and came out to talk to him. Even the two little kids came over, looked at this handsome young man, then looked at what he had in his hand, and laughed.
Meng Changli was shocked to see Gu Hansong bringing so many gifts to her house. She said to him, "Hansong, it's rare for us to invite you to have a meal. Thank you for your help these days. We are already repaying you. Why do you bring gifts? You are too polite. Take these things back when you leave. We can't accept them. We absolutely cannot accept them."
He Jinqiu had just finished washing her hands and came over. When she saw the two bags on the table and then looked at Gu Hansong, who had just had his hair cut and was dressed so beautifully, she was almost speechless.
She felt something was wrong, really wrong.
How does this make it look like...
He Jinqiu didn't dare to think about it.
No way? ?
Mengfude also said that he was asked to eat, but why did he have to carry so many things? It was so embarrassing.
Meng Fude also said that they could not be accepted, and he would take them back after dinner.
Gu Hansong coughed, took out a can of nutritional supplements with only English words from his net bag, and said to everyone: "This is what I brought back from my trip. It's a brain tonic and can enhance memory."
What? There is such a thing? Several people's attention was attracted.
Gu Hansong continued, "A friend gave it to me and said it's effective, so he asked me to try it. I'm not going to college, so forget it. I'll give it to Shulan."
Then he pointed at something else and said, "Except for this bottle of wine which I bought for Uncle Meng, the others are all brought for this trip. I wanted to bring them here a few days ago, but I was too busy and didn't find the opportunity.
Uncle, aunt, please don't be polite to me. My grandmother said that when our family returned to the village, we received a lot of help from you. This little token of your help is nothing."
After all these years of getting along, everyone knows Gu Hansong's temper.
It's quite rare to get him to say so many words, which only shows that this child has a sincere heart!
The Meng family members looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Finally, Meng Fude sighed and said, "You are such a thoughtful kid. Okay, okay, I'll accept it this time. But I have to say, it's just this once, don't be so polite next time. As for the neighbors on the left and right, let's be more casual. Hahaha..."
Meng Fude is also an honest man who doesn't talk much, but he always says a few words to Gu Hansong, and it is obvious that he likes this child very much.
Since Mengfud said he would accept it, no one else said much.
Meng Changli even called her sister out, "Have you been reading too much? Everyone is here, come out and say hello."
"oh."
Meng Shulan pretended to have just put away her books and was about to go out. When she passed by the wardrobe at the door, she looked at herself in the mirror and combed her hair.
When I went to the main room, Gu Hansong had already sat down, He Jinqiu was pouring tea, and snacks such as melon seeds and sugar cakes were already placed on the table.
Meng Shulan lifted the curtain in the corridor and came out, and Gu Hansong also turned his head to look over.
Their eyes met. Her face was still red and her heart was beating fast. He didn't think anything was wrong and just smiled, but his back straightened even more.
The guests have arrived, so Meng Changli stopped sewing and went to the kitchen to help.
Montford sat at the table and talked with them.
Meng Shulan greeted Gu Hansong and went to the yard, taking the two little kids to write on the stone slab on the side of the mill.
But before she had taught for long, a voice sounded in her ear, "What are you doing?"
Meng Shulan's mind was not on teaching to begin with, her mind was full of him. This man suddenly came up to her again, scaring her so much that she almost jumped up.
"How come you walk so silently?"
Gu Hansong looked at her blankly, "Ah, is there?"
Of course not.
Also, how did he get out?
