All three sons of the Gu family can cook, after all, they have Grandpa Gu as their role model.
Gu Shouxin suggested to his uncle that he sell skewers.
Gu Nian had already prepared the hot pot broth.
Next, once potatoes are widely available, he will have Uncle Gu sell wolf tooth potatoes again. This will definitely make money, since their family is currently the only one producing potatoes, and they can supply them in large quantities. However, this will have to wait a while.
Upon hearing this, the group thought it could earn them a lot of money, so Grandma Gu included Zhang Shi in the list: "After the spring planting, Renzi will be six months old. Our children are all weaned at six months. I will take care of Renzi for you, and you two can set up a stall to earn money for the child's dowry and tuition."
“Mother! You are truly my mother! I often think about what I would do without you! Mother, let me toast you!” Uncle Gu stood up and respectfully poured Grandma Gu a glass of wine.
Grandma Gu finally accepted the wine glass and drank it down. "You all shouldn't drink anymore. Clear the table, brothers, go to the kitchen and wash the dishes. Come and warm yourself by the fire for a while. It's getting late. Go rest for an hour or two around dawn, and then go to the graves!"
The brothers obediently collected the dishes and went to wash them.
Grandma Gu and Grandma Xiao sat down by the brazier and warmed themselves by the fire.
When it was dawn, everyone went home to sleep, but Yang Xiaohuan stayed at the Gu family's house with Gu Hui for the night.
...
The first day of the first month of the thirteenth year of Emperor Wen of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The four members of the second branch of the Gu family did not get up for their morning exercise today.
After 7 a.m., Cai Xiaolian got up and woke up the father and daughters.
The family of four all wore new clothes, especially the two sisters, who were both wearing red jackets. Cai Xiaolian said that red is what you should wear for the New Year, for good luck and prosperity.
When they arrived at the old house, Grandpa Gu saw that everyone had arrived and started making glutinous rice balls to cook.
In Sanchakou Village, people eat tangyuan (sweet rice balls) on the first day of the Lunar New Year, symbolizing a year of completeness and fulfillment.
Grandpa Gu also put copper coins inside the glutinous rice balls, two in total. It is said that whoever eats the rice ball will have exceptionally good luck for the year.
Gu Nian shrugged after hearing this. "We have a little koi fish in our family. Who can be luckier than her?"
Some people are lucky enough to have a time-traveling woman come to their house to be their older sister or mother. Look at her little lucky charm, her parents and older sister are all time travelers. Who can compete with this kind of luck?
As expected, Gu Xin ate both glutinous rice balls that came with copper coins.
"Tsk tsk! Xinxin, you should go out more this year!" Uncle Gu said with a tsk tsk.
"Why, Uncle?" Gu Xin asked, puzzled.
"You're lucky! Go out more and you'll find more money! Didn't you always find money by the river before the New Year? Sisi told me about it. You picked it up and shared it with your sisters," Uncle Gu said.
"What? You little brat, you've been hiding money?" Zhang was taken aback and looked at Gu Si.
"I used it," Gu Si said.
"Hey, I'm telling you, you've got guts..." Zhang was about to curse when Uncle Gu interrupted her.
“Hey wife, don’t yell at her! If you make her cry, she’ll cry all year round. Isn’t it enough that we have a brat crying all the time?” Uncle Gu said.
“But she can’t hide money! Father, the child can’t have money in his hands, he’ll misuse it,” Zhang said.
"Who said that? So what if she misused it? It was Xinxin who picked it up and gave it to Sisi. Her misuse has nothing to do with you. It's not like you gave Sisi the money! What are you so angry about?" Uncle Gu said righteously.
