Chapter 70: Honey is not the first choice
In 1964, National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival were close together, so all units had two days off and distributed gifts. The school gave each teacher an enamel cup.
The Public Security Bureau gave each person two kilograms of fruit, chicken heart fruit. This fruit is bright red and tastes crispy and sweet. It is a kind of small apple.
Suho especially likes to eat.
Chicken heart fruit and 123 small apples are ranked first in her opinion and are tastier than big apples.
This fruit has only appeared in recent years. I heard that it is a new variety cultivated in the market. In any case, it tastes very good.
Seeing that his wife loved eating, Gu Jianhua said,
"Wife, if you like it, let's go to the orchard and pick some tomorrow. We have days off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow anyway."
His colleague went to purchase the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival gifts for their department. He went directly to the orchard of his wife's family's brigade and bought two boxes of fruit.
Su He paused while eating the fruit and asked, "Is it okay?"
She has not been to the orchard yet.
Gu Jianhua nodded, "Sure, why not? It's not far from the county. It's just over half an hour's walk north."
"Our round trip will take no more than two hours."
Su He, "Let's go, as long as you know the way."
She didn't know the road. Before she married Gu Jianhua, she had never left the county. Only after she married him did she know the way to Xiangyang Brigade. She didn't know the way to other village brigades.
Gu Jianhua said, "I recognize it. I've been there before."
A few months ago, someone from his colleague's wife's family set fire to a haystack in the village. An old man accidentally set the haystack on fire while smoking. The dry haystack caught fire and also burned several trees on the road.
Although the fire was put out quickly, a tree on the roadside was burned. This tree was planted at the request of the higher authorities and was different from other trees in the village.
Everyone reported the case to the police. The leaders in the bureau felt that Ren Da Ye did not do it on purpose and should not be sentenced as heavily as the previous arsonists. However, he had burned several public trees, so he was detained for about half a month, given a good lecture and then released.
This matter was handled by Gu Jianhua and his colleagues.
After listening to this, Su He said, "You must quit smoking in the future!"
Gu Jianhua also smokes, but not as frequently as his father, only once or twice a day.
Father Gu would roll several cigarettes a day. Whenever she saw him, he was always smoking. He only didn't smoke when he was playing with his two grandchildren.
Gu's mother loves cleanliness and treats Gu's father the same. If Gu's father wants to play with the two babies, he must brush his teeth before playing, because the grandfather loves his grandchildren and kisses the children on the cheeks. In response to this, Gu's mother explicitly forbids Gu's father to kiss the two babies before brushing his teeth. The kiss can be just a touch of the mouth, but not a big kiss.
It is said that your mouth stinks from smoking every day. If you kiss your two children like this, what if something grows on their faces?
Mr. Gu was also afraid, so he could only be intimate with his two grandchildren nose to nose and tried his best not to kiss the children's faces.
Su He didn't care. She didn't smoke. She would come home from get off work every day and kiss the two babies madly, even their little feet.
Speaking of which, Gu's mother treated Gu Jianhua the same way. She knew her son smoked, so like Gu's father, she required him to brush his teeth before kissing the two children.
So, what’s the point of smoking if you quit smoking!
It would be very dangerous if you accidentally set the haystack on fire like that old man did.
Gu Jianhua: "Okay, I won't smoke tomorrow." He is not a heavy smoker.
The next day, the family of four slept in. Gu Jianhua got up at eight o'clock, while Su He dawdled until nine o'clock.
Since we separated, my mother-in-law doesn't come over to take care of me when I sleep. The house is very quiet, which is perfect for sleeping.
There was no need to cook in the morning. The family of four went directly to the front room to eat. For breakfast, Gu's mother made hotpot dumplings, cornmeal hotpot dumplings, and the vegetable was stewed potatoes and beans with a few eggs in it.
The unbroken eggs were fried eggs, one for each person. The two babies were old enough to eat, so I beat them for six.
Potatoes and beans stewed with a few eggs are really delicious, and cornmeal cakes soaked in vegetable soup are even better.
Mother Gu said, "I knew you were asleep, so I didn't wake you up for breakfast. You finally got a chance to rest and take a nap."
Su He found that Gu's mother was always understanding and felt that they were tired from work. She felt that Gu's father and mother were also very tired. Gu's father worked in the fields every day and had to take care of the cows in his spare time.
Needless to say, Mother Gu takes care of the two babies when they go to work, and she also has to do a lot of miscellaneous chores like cleaning the house and cooking.
This is also very tiring and time-consuming.
She wanted to pick some fruits for her father and mother this time, and pick some just for them.
I told my mother about going to the orchard for a while, and she said, "Go ahead, go ahead, the children. I'll keep the lunch for you."
So Su He and Gu Jianhua came out after dinner. She said to Gu Jianhua, "Jianhua, pick more this time. I will also mail some to my elder brother and his wife."
Although she had never met her sister-in-law in her life, she got to know her sister-in-law through books. In the books, her sister-in-law was so kind to her two children.
However, due to work reasons, they could not come back for a while, so she could not entertain them properly, so Su He wanted to mail some fruits to them.
It can also be considered as a congratulations to their wedding.
Gu Jianhua certainly had no objection, "Okay, since we're here anyway, let's pick more and send some to our parents."
Upon hearing this, Su He joked with him, "Oh, this son-in-law is so filial."
Gu Jianhua smiled and said, "Of course. My parents are so good to us. We can't do such an ungrateful thing."
His father-in-law and mother-in-law are incomparable to ordinary people. Even his own parents are considered pretty good father-in-law and mother-in-law in the village.
But compared with Su's father and mother, he was still not as good. Let's not talk about other things. When he and Su He went to eat at noon every day, they would eat and take things. Su's father and mother were always happy. They just asked them to eat more and never said a word.
Just tell me, who has extra food these days?
Gu Jianhua thought that when the team distributed rations, he would buy 100 kilograms of grain and send it to Su's father and mother. His father-in-law and mother-in-law treated them well, and he, as a son-in-law, could not be so shameless as to eat and drink for free.
Su He knew that her son-in-law Gu Jianhua was more filial than her daughter, and he would always send food and drinks to her parents first.
I smiled and said, "Jianhua, you are so nice. I don't know what good things I did in my last life to be able to meet you in this life. You are so beautiful, have a good job, and are such a nice person."
As the daughter of Comrade Chen Yuling, Su He is naturally gifted with the skills that men need, and she is even better than her mother.
She didn't even need to practice to praise Gu Jianhua. She praised him countless times every day. For example, she would say, "Jianhua, you look good today. How come you work so efficiently? I can't do that." And so on.
Anyway, Su He praises him every day as if his mouth is covered with honey and he doesn't care about the cost.
It is said that Gu's mother was happy to listen to Su He's talk, and Gu Jianhua was no exception. When he heard this, his tone softened.
"Ah, what am I talking about? I did good things in my last life, so I was able to meet you in this life, my wife."
Gu Jianhua thinks his wife is great, great in every way, a million times great. It must have been a stroke of luck in his previous life that he got to meet such a great wife.
Otherwise you might bump into it.
Su He laughed, "I praised you, but you praised me instead."
What do they call this? Business blow-by-blow
Gu Jianhua said, "It's the truth," meaning he was not exaggerating.
"I am telling the truth too." Su He said.
Maybe it was because they had only been married for two years and the novelty was still there. Anyway, Su He really liked to hang out with him at the moment. Even when they sat on the back of a bicycle, she would hug him and rest her head on his back.
Anyway, there are only a few people on the street, and they are all married, so it's legal.
The book says that a woman who flirts with her husband or partner all day long is called a spoiled wife, a love-brained woman who feels like she can't live without a man.
She didn't quite understand the term darling wife. It should be a good word, but the comments from readers sounded a bit weird. As for the term love brain, she understood it.
But she doesn't think she is a love-brained person. How can she be a love-brained person if she is running towards him in both directions?
The one about her being the daughter of a rich man in the book, isn’t…really true, after all, both she and Gu Jianhua have passed away, the child lacks love, and the male protagonist, that bastard, is fickle.
What kind of good man, while having a girlfriend, would still send medicine, breakfast, porridge, etc. to other girls, and then care about them eight hundred times a day?
The hero in the book is like this, he secretly has an affair with the heroine Gu Lichu. That's called an underground relationship, it's not made public, no one else knows about it, including her girlfriend.
Then the male protagonist is very attentive to her girlfriend and shows her 360-degree care. If a man is good-looking and good-looking in every aspect, and he cares about you every day, how can you not be moved?
Finally, I have no romantic feelings for you. I treat you as my sister because the male protagonist had a younger sister who passed away many years ago, and her daughter looks very similar to his sister.
Funny, and she looks like his sister. How come they were together in their previous life and became husband and wife? Oh, from the heroine's point of view, this problem is that the hero had no choice but to do it, and he didn't really like her. They were together for various reasons, anyway, he didn't really love her.
Some of them have reasons to brainwash themselves. Of course, the readers of the book also feel that choosing her daughter is the next best thing.
Not the first choice, their heroine Gu Li is the first choice.
Really, what's wrong with her being a lady?
She, Gu Li, is pretty and bright.
She is the most aloof goddess in Peking University, and she is unattainable. She is also the campus beauty of Peking University, and her grades are also very good. So what is wrong with her as a lady?
Su He gets angry whenever he thinks about it. For the male protagonist, Gu Li is not the first choice. If possible, he wants to marry both of them and hug them both.
She thinks that the heroine Gu Li is also stupid, just as stupid and bad as her mother Wu Sanfeng.
Regardless of past or present life, the male protagonist's behavior is very wrong!
In the previous life, the male protagonist married her daughter. They were a couple and had lived together for so many years. Her daughter was not an ugly woman, so how could she not have feelings for him? She was always thinking about him. Why did she really think of herself as a mole on his face?
It's mosquito blood at best!
Let’s talk about the life when Gu Li was reborn. It was obviously the hero who showed concern and greeting to her first, but Gu Li couldn’t see it and brainwashed herself that he had his own reasons for doing that, and it was not because he liked her.
Crazy.
Furthermore, the pursuit of Gu Li in her previous life was before she met her daughter, so why do those readers say that her daughter was the second choice, not the first choice.
She didn't believe that there would be anyone who didn't like someone who was full of advantages, unless that person himself was inferior and dark, like a rat in the gutter.
In the book, she is a standard vicious female supporting role. She is good-looking, and looks like a cold and aloof goddess when she is not smiling. But when she smiles, it feels like the whole world lights up.
She has a good family background. Although in the book she and Gu Jianhua have both passed away, and both her parents are gone, she still has uncles. All three uncles are very powerful, and they are involved in military, political and business matters. The three uncles love their niece very much and would try to pick the stars from the sky for her.
She is outstanding in herself, and her daughter is really outstanding, comparable to her third uncle. Whether in Gu Li's previous life or after rebirth, her daughter got the first place in the province in the college entrance examination, and the top scorer in liberal arts.
It is such a person who is excellent in all aspects who falls in love, falls deeper and deeper, and cannot extricate himself.
In response to this situation, Su He has prepared an anti-love pill in her system. Whether it is with the male protagonist or another man, only a two-way relationship can be a sweet love. If it is a one-way relationship, forget it and stop it immediately.
No, it's not okay to run towards the male protagonist in both directions.
The male protagonist Zhou Yinghuai should quickly go find his female protagonist Gu Li, the scumbag and the bitch are a perfect match.
Her children, both boys and girls, are not allowed to fall in love. In her opinion, no matter what kind of emotion it is, it must be a two-way relationship, including family affection, friendship, and love.
In fact, Su Ho was quite looking forward to Gu Li being reborn, and then looking for Zhou Yinghuai. She wanted to see if Gu Li would be without the system in this life, and Zhou Yinghuai would be without the support of her third brother, to see if the two of them could crawl into the book. In that position, they can live their ideal life.
She and Gu Jianhua must live well in this life, they must live.
She doesn't have enough points now. She used her points for this year to exchange for whitening pills for herself, and a few days ago she exchanged them for fortifying pills for her parents. So she doesn't have many points left.
When she has accumulated enough points, she will make a talisman for Gu Jianhua and herself, and also make a Guyuan Pill for Gu's father and mother.
She has now developed a habit of reading for at least four hours a day and earning at least four points every day.
With this learning system, she can't be lazy and will supervise your learning every day.
You would feel embarrassed if you don't learn. She also said that Sister Gu would work until she was 80 years old. She now feels that she has to live and learn until she is old. Maybe she will still be reading a book when she is 80 years old!
But it doesn’t matter, she is very willing to learn this way.
The brigade with an orchard was called Qingshan Brigade. Gu Jianhua knew their village secretary and brigade leader. When they heard that we were there to buy fruit, they were very enthusiastic.
Led them to the orchard.
There are many kinds of fruits in the orchard, including several varieties of pears.
They bought two boxes of pears. One box was given to her eldest brother and his wife, and one box was kept for themselves. They also gave some to her parents, second brother and his wife, and that was enough.
She didn't buy any apples, but she did buy two boxes of small apples, 123, and chicken heart-shaped apples. One box was given to her eldest brother and his wife, and the remaining box was shared among several families.
In addition to these, we also bought some dates, fresh and ripe dates, red, crispy and sweet, Su He really likes to eat them.
Seeing that they bought a lot and were old acquaintances, the captain gave them a bag of sago with rock sugar fillings.
The fresh sand apples in the orchard cannot be eaten for long. Most of them are made into dried sand apples and sold to supply and marketing cooperatives. People then buy some dried sand apples during the New Year and other festivals.
People also like to eat dried sand apples, which are sour and sweet. Gu's mother likes to soak them in water and drink them, saying that drinking them this way is good for the stomach and digestion.
Su He likes to eat dried crab apples, especially in the school office. He would open a book, put some dried crab apples next to it, and eat them while reading.
What a leisurely life.
I just feel astringent in my mouth after eating too much.
