Chapter 21 Is it possible that this car belongs to my brother-in-law?
Didn't he have a hard time? He brought back a few pieces of clothing in his luggage bag, only a military green short-sleeved shirt and camouflage pants. If he hadn't been in good shape, he would have looked like a migrant worker.
After noticing He Tao's flashy outfit, Zhou Nuanfu suddenly realized, "He Tao, did your brother-in-law ask you to borrow money?"
He Tao's tone was even more exaggerated, "Ask me to borrow money? How is that possible!!" He still has to rely on him for a living!
"I didn't ask you for money? That's not bad," there is still hope. "He Tao, I know you value loyalty and affection. It's been hard for you to drive me around these days. You must have wasted a lot of gas, right? I won't bother you anymore. We can take the bus."
Anyway, Gujia Village is not far from Jiangzhou City, and it only takes 20 minutes by bus. Although she is delicate, she also understands the ways of the world and can't always trouble others.
He Tao looked very strange, and after a long while he managed to utter a sentence, "Sister-in-law, is it possible that this car belongs to my brother-in-law?"
Zhou Nuan, "Ah?"
————
After ruthlessly rejecting He Tao who wanted to eat for free, Gu Xiyue put down his things and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
It was still early, and Qin Yuezhi and the others had not returned yet, but it didn't matter. When he was in the army, he also worked in the kitchen for a period of time, and his cooking skills were considered decent. If Qin Yuezhi hadn't insisted, he would have already started cooking.
Gu Xiyue washed the rice and vegetables, killed the fish, and took out the sweet potatoes, intending to make Zhou Nuan her favorite sweet potato candied potato.
Perhaps because Zhou Nuan was not liked by her parents when she was in Old Zhou's house, the thing she ate the most over the years was sweet potatoes. Candied sweet potatoes were the most delicious thing she had ever eaten, and she had a paranoid liking for them.
He was busy in an orderly manner when suddenly a pair of eyes came over. He turned around and saw Zhou Nuan leaning against the door, staring at him with a strange look.
Gu Xiyue thought she was just hungry. "Wait a moment, it will be ready soon. Go see if mom and the others are back."
After waiting for a while, I didn't hear her response. When I turned around, I saw that she was still clinging to the door.
“...What’s wrong?” Gu Xiyue stopped what he was doing.
Zhou Nuan wanted to ask, Gu Xiyue, how much are you hiding from her? But then she thought that he hadn't hidden anything from her, he just hadn't taken the initiative to tell her.
"He Tao said the car is yours?" Even though she thought so, her tone still sounded a little resentful.
Anyone would feel resentful about this. She had made plans to live a contented life in poverty and thought she was quite noble. But what happened is that her husband not only opened a factory but also had a car which is very rare nowadays. No one would be able to accept this, right?
Gu Xiyue was silent for a moment, his expression unchanged, "It's shared by the factory."
“You still have a factory.”
"We've just started, and the scale isn't very large. Mom doesn't want me to do business. She's afraid that I'll fail and end up in debt, and the family won't be able to pay it back. So I didn't tell you. I was planning to wait until I got things going well before telling you, so she wouldn't worry."
"..." What the other person said made sense, but she felt a little uncomfortable, "Then the money you send back every month..."
"I have invested all the extra money I have in production. Besides, if I send too much, my mother will get suspicious, and..." Gu Xiyue didn't say anything else.
"And he's afraid that I'll take them all back to my parents' home." Zhou Nuan took over what he hadn't finished saying.
Gu Xiyue didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement.
Zhou Nuan didn't know what to feel. If she said she was unhappy, the original owner did something stupid. If she said she was happy... Well, she was quite happy. At least she didn't have to be so frugal anymore and spend every penny wisely.
Thinking of this, she felt much better, "You did the right thing!"
Gu Xiyue's tone became a little strange when he heard this, "You support me?"
"Yes, of course I do. Not only do I support you, but I also hope you can be bold and do it on a larger scale. Don't be afraid of failure. At worst, you can just start over again."
Why fail? In this era where you can make a fortune by doing anything, as long as you have courage, a long-term vision and don't make stupid mistakes, you can take off, not to mention that Gu Xiyue already has these conditions.
It turned out that he was already groping at this time. Before he had the chance to tell her, he would have been divorced ruthlessly and resolutely, and he also lost his two children.
Although I don’t know when Ji Huayan will show up, it doesn’t matter even if he divorces her in the future. With Gu Xiyue’s personality, alimony will definitely be necessary for the divorce, as she is carrying his two biological children.
Gu Xiyue's eyes became even stranger, and seemed to be getting hotter.
"By the way, just pretend you didn't hear what I said before about asking you to come back."
His career is all outside, so if he comes back, wouldn't that mean his work will fail? Zhou Nuan couldn't do such a thing.
There was a voice outside the house, "Xiao Nuan, you are back."
It was Qin Yuezhi and Su Hang who came back with the child.
Zhou Nuan blinked, gave him a look that said "I'll keep my mouth shut", and went out with a smile, "Mom, little Su Hang."
"Mom, Xiao Suhang, you guys are back just in time. Look what Xiyue and I bought for you."
"Hey, why did you buy so many clothes for us? Just buy them for yourself. We don't need them."
"It's not much. It's okay, Mom. I have plenty of money."
“…”
The voices outside rose and fell, and laughter could be heard continuously, it was warm and harmonious, completely different from the dead and lifeless atmosphere before.
Gu Xiyue's cold brows softened involuntarily. He calmed himself down and turned around to continue the work in his hands.
After finishing the meal, Zhou Nuan was about to volunteer to wash the dishes, but unexpectedly she was stopped by the whole family.
Qin Yuezhi, "You don't need to wash. You haven't really left the confinement period yet. What if you catch a cold?"
"Mom, I've been in confinement for a month." Zhou Nuan shouted.
Qin Yuezhi refused to listen to her. "A hundred days of confinement is a long period of time. Some people even need to stay in bed for half a year. Your time is too little. No, Mom will go and wash it."
Little Su Hang also advised, "Aunt, just listen to my grandma. My mom is in poor health because she didn't take good care of herself after the baby's confinement."
Although Gu Xiyue didn't say anything, it was clear from his eyes that he disagreed.
In the end, Qin Yuezhi snatched it away and washed it.
Zhou Nuan had no choice but to arrange for tomorrow's 100-day banquet. "Mom, tell the neighbors and friends to come to Yingjiang Hotel before 11 o'clock tomorrow. We need to prepare for dinner at 12 o'clock."
"By the way, don't keep the clothes I bought for you today. Wear them tomorrow."
Qin Yuezhi was silent for a moment, then reluctantly asked, "Are you going to wear it tomorrow? My clothes are pretty good, why don't you wait until the New Year to wear them?"
Zhou Nuan smiled, "Mom, tomorrow is Xiaodong and Xiaoxi's big day, and Gu Xiyue's friends will be here, don't you want to make him proud? Also, these are summer clothes, how are you going to wear them during the New Year?"
"And you, Su Hang, you have to wear it too, understand?" She turned her eyes and stared at Su Hang, who looked a little unnatural. "Don't think about selling it to make money to supplement the family income. Your aunt is watching you. The family doesn't need a little kid like you to worry about. Eating well, dressing well and studying hard are the important things. Do you understand?"
