When the two appeared in the living room on time, everyone's eyes turned to them.
"Come over and have breakfast," Gu Huadong called them over.
Su Ying walked around the table to her seat, almost losing her balance and falling down.
Gu Sinian reacted quickly and caught her. "Be careful."
Su Ying twisted the man's waist hard. "It's not your fault for being so fast. I told you to hurry up, but how did you treat me?"
Recalling what had just happened in the bathroom, Gu Sinian's mouth went dry, and he discovered a new way to play.
I'll try more in the future, but my wife's physical condition is too poor to handle it...
"My mistake. I'll be more careful next time."
He still wants a future? She'd never do that shameful position a second time. What a dream, you dog of a man.
He helped her sit at the dining table and placed the thinnest porridge in front of Su Ying.
"I didn't have breakfast, so I'll have some porridge first."
Looking at the porridge in the bowl in front of her, Su Ying really had no appetite at all.
It's about the same as drinking water. I'll give Grandma some money later so she can buy some meat to nourish herself.
She couldn't even stand eating a meal at the Gu family's house occasionally, let alone her grandparents who were getting old and needed to eat something good to replenish their energy.
Seeing that she wasn't touching her chopsticks, Gu Sinian whispered something in her ear.
"Have some porridge to fill your stomach first, and when no one is around, take out some steamed buns from your space to eat, okay?"
"Okay. Got it. You're so long-winded."
Seeing that his wife still hadn't touched her chopsticks, Gu Sinian drank almost all the porridge in his bowl, leaving a white clump at the bottom. He then drank half of Su Ying's porridge, leaving only a lot of porridge at the bottom of her bowl.
The two bowls of porridge were combined and became one bowl of porridge.
Su Ying looked at the man in disbelief. Was it really appropriate to show affection in front of everyone?
Gu Sinian's actions stunned everyone at the dinner table. Yu Youtian was very envious. She had always known that Gu Sinian doted on Su Ying, and seeing it today, she could confirm that his reputation was well-deserved.
She had married a piece of shit, even though he was her husband. She glanced at the man next to her who was happily eating.
A man like this is destined to get divorced.
Moreover, they are morally corrupt, and I don't want to have any entanglement with them for the rest of my life.
Seeing how much Gu Sinian doted on Su Ying, Qian Huiru nudged Gu Yuanming with her elbow.
He completely ignored her and buried himself in his work, slurping his porridge loudly. "Finish your food early and get back to work. What are you making a fuss about? My tasks are much more important than yours."
“I’m not as lucky as Si Nian, who can get easy jobs because of his wife. I don’t have the strength to earn work points if I don’t eat.”
Qian Huiru thought it made a lot of sense and gave up on the idea. Young people can be content with love even if they don't drink water, unlike them who are already old and would really be starving if they missed a meal.
They're always doing these shady things, it's so annoying.
Li Yaxian followed suit, but Gu Yuanhong wouldn't have any of it. "If I don't eat more, how will I help you with the work later?"
That's true. Li Yaxian poured a lot of the porridge from her bowl into Gu Yuanhong's bowl.
At the dinner table, only Gu Sishi kept her head down and ate, and she was in a very good mood.
She has White Rabbit milk candy, so it doesn't matter if she eats a little less, since she won't go hungry anyway.
Yan Yan smiled brightly when she saw how well her grandson and granddaughter-in-law got along.
"I'm going to make turtle soup tonight. Remember to come back and have some soup when you two come back."
Su Ying waved her hand, "No need, Grandma. That turtle was originally bought for you and Grandpa to nourish your bodies. We're so young, we don't need any supplements, so we won't drink the turtle soup."
"That won't do. The two turtles in the basin were brought back with great difficulty by you. If you don't come back to eat them, Grandma won't eat them either."
Gu Sinian took his wife's hand and said, "Let's come back."
"That's right."
Su Ying glared at Gu Sinian, "You dare to drink such a nourishing soup? Aren't you afraid of getting a nosebleed?"
"It's alright, aren't you here?"
That scoundrel is up to his old tricks again, trying to torment her.
“We bought the turtle in the first place. If we don’t come back to drink it, Grandpa and Grandma will never kill it to make soup.”
"But the turtles were originally bought for them to nourish their bodies. Everyone gets a share, and they can't eat that much. Didn't the doctor recommend that they drink more turtle soup to help them recover?"
“It’s alright. We still have so many turtles. I can just cook them and bring them back for Grandpa and Grandma to drink next time. They can’t refuse.”
Gu Sinian's idea was feasible. After all, there were more than ten people in the Gu family. If they only slaughtered one turtle, how many bites could each person eat? Even the grandparents wouldn't be able to eat many bites.
"Child, we're all going to the brigade leader's house to work today, isn't that true?"
Su Ying thought for a moment and nodded, "Gu Sinian and I are both meritorious people, and each of us has two spots. Gu Sinian's spot will be given to you two elders."
Qian Huiru was completely bewildered, not knowing what kind of riddle they were playing, and was utterly confused.
"A while ago, Su Ying and I were tasked with making dried yellow peaches, and our family helped a lot. I'll give you the money you deserve later."
"The brigade leader remembered our merits, and the dried yellow peaches sold for a good price, helping the village find another way to make a living."
"To reward us, they gave us two spots. My spot was given to my grandparents first. From now on, you can go directly to the brigade leader's house to work. You can get full work points for a full day's work."
"As for who gets my wife's two spots, that's her decision, and I won't interfere too much."
Su Ying paused deliberately, looked at everyone at the table, pointed to Yu Youtian and Gu Sishi. In the Gu family, apart from her grandparents, only these two were kind to her.
"I'll give my two spots to my cousin-in-law and Si Shi."
"On what grounds?" Qian Huiru and Li Yaxian voted against it in unison.
Gu Huadong couldn't stand it anymore and slammed his hand on the table, shouting, "That's Ying's own spot; she can give it to whomever she wants!"
"You guys are so sarcastic and critical in your daily conversations, but when it comes to hiring people, you're all against it. You're such hypocrites."
"Alright. That's all for now. Hurry up and eat. If you don't want to eat, then get out of here. There's so much to do every day."
Qian Huiru and Li Yaxian both felt a strange fear of Gu Huadong.
As soon as the old man spoke, they obediently shut their mouths.
Li Yaxian began to coax a twelve-year-old girl, "Si Shi, your job is already easy, there's no need to change it, why don't you give this job opportunity to your mother?"
"Mom has always loved you very much, and now it's your turn to repay her."
Gu Sishi didn't want to change jobs. She had helped out at the brigade leader's house before, and the work of drying yellow peaches was easier and she could get full work points.
She was usually very busy with work and only earned half a work point, so she didn't want to go up the mountain to cut pig feed anymore.
She wanted to make dried yellow peaches, stay with her second sister-in-law, and occasionally eat White Rabbit milk candy.
Yu Youtian faced the same situation, and Qian Huiru said both nice things and bad things.
Yu Youtian remained completely unmoved.
She's about to divorce her son, why doesn't she think more about herself? Is she really going to sacrifice for that pile of shit?
He doesn't deserve it.
He deserves to mingle with rotten fish and shrimp, rotting away forever.
