From what the little girl did, it was clear that she was sensible, motivated and courageous.
To your taste.
That girl will definitely be a member of the Gu family in the future.
Being able to go to Jibei Province to visit the brat and his future daughter-in-law is what Mr. Gu envies most about his wife. He can give lectures in the local area openly without any trouble.
He can't do it because the conditions don't allow it.
After thinking it over, there is no need to rush this time.
Based on his understanding of his wife
——I will definitely be able to see the brat tomorrow night, and drink the bottle of sorghum wine that makes him so craving for it.
He didn't wait until the evening, but early the next morning he saw this little evil creature whom he hadn't seen for almost a year.
Gu Feihan was distributing gifts in the living room. There was a large table full of them, and there was a pile on the floor. Lin Yaru and Aunt Zhou helped him sort them, and the three of them were busy and having fun.
The old man's movements froze for a moment, and he coughed in a pretentious manner.
Gu Feihan turned his head and a look of joy appeared on his face.
I haven't seen you for almost a year. It seems that dad is in good health, with a rosy face.
As if nothing had happened, he picked up a large jar of wine and approached the old man, "Dad, smell it, is this the smell?"
The old man remained calm and unmoved.
It can be said that he is very stubborn! Gu Feihan opened the lid of the jar and put the jar close to Mr. Gu's nose.
He had asked before, and learned that the wine from Aunt Wu's family was brewed using a method passed down from the older generation, and was drunk by the troops who had fought the Japanese.
When Mr. Gu smelled the familiar aroma of wine, his eyes lit up.
He suppressed his excitement and said casually, "Now that you're back, stay at home and don't go out and run around for no reason."
"Of course!" Gu Feihan smiled awkwardly and leaned close to his father's ear, "I've already reported this to my mother. You can drink an extra 2 liang of wine tonight."
Mr. Gu felt inexplicably relieved.
——That’s more like it.
It was that familiar brat, that's right.
Old Master Gu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and then he put on an irrepressible smile.
Gu Feihan felt completely at ease.
Since childhood, his parents have been very fair to every child in the family and tried their best to treat them equally, but he knows that his parents and siblings dote on him very much and spend the most effort on him.
He had been out and about for the whole year and had not been home. His bad temper had not changed much, but his longing for his family had only increased.
When he was in northern Ji, every time he saw Grandpa Lu, he couldn't help but miss his father.
This iron-blooded man is very powerful outside, but he is always gentle in front of his family.
Now I finally have the opportunity to make up for the companionship and care that I have lacked in the past year.
The corners of Gu Feihan's mouth also curled up in joy.
At the same time, Su Xiaoli had a faint smile on her lips. After the year-end bonuses and red envelopes were distributed, she felt relieved and excited.
Based on the current momentum, it is definitely a good start.
We can do a big job next year.
She deliberately planned fewer things today so that she could accompany her grandmother and mother to fry New Year's goods.
Three women were busy in the kitchen.
We prepared a lot of meat dishes: small yellow croaker, hairtail, prawns, crispy pork, lotus root box, eggplant box...
More vegetarian dishes: carrot balls, vegetable dumplings, spring rolls, sugar cakes, chops, glutinous rice balls, tofu boxes...
The house is filled with pots, pans, and utensils of all sizes.
"Isn't that too much?" Su Xiaoli's eyes widened.
Although we have to prepare a portion for the first month of the Chinese New Year and a portion to send to the Xia family, I'm afraid the rest will not be finished after the first month of the Chinese New Year.
It tastes good, but Su Xiaoli doesn't want to have leftovers, nor does she want her family to eat stale food. Fried food is not considered healthy.
Apart from my family, I only eat it when guests or relatives come to my house.
There might not be many guests, and the Su family did not have many direct relatives, except for the second uncle's family who had not been active recently and Su Lanying who lived far away in Qingzhou.
Grandma Su didn't say it, but her eyes couldn't hide the fact that she was upset.
Su Xiaoli felt helpless.
Second uncle Su Jinbu has always been taciturn. He has been strictly controlled by Chang Feng'e since junior high school. Not to mention visiting Grandma Su to show his filial respects, he rarely even sends a letter from her. It's as if he has disappeared from the face of the earth.
She did have news about Su Lanying, but no one had disappeared from the face of the earth. However, Su Xiaoli wished she would disappear right there.
Zhang Dajun's whereabouts are unknown. The last time Ling Yicheng dealt with him, he told Su Xiaoli that he would never let Zhang Dajun enter the underground DU scene again.
The "informant" proprietress of the cosmetics store called her twice more. Su Lanying was spending money more and more lavishly. The sales she contributed alone were equivalent to the sales of the small store in half a month.
During the second call, the proprietress expressed her concerns right away - Su Lanying retched three times when she reached the door while buying some cosmetics.
She is an experienced person, this is too much like...
Although she is not showing any signs of pregnancy yet, there is a high probability that she is pregnant.
This news really makes people... speechless.
I don't know whose child this is.
I don't know what Su Lanying is thinking. Is she just throwing everything away? Or is she trying to use her child to get ahead? She can't even live well on her own, and she wants to drag down another one.
Su Xiaoli rolled her eyes.
She left her home's newly installed phone number with the landlady. When she saw Grandma Su coming in and walking towards the house, she just said "keep in touch" and hung up the phone.
Su Xiaoli was a little dazed when she thought about Su Lanying's pregnancy.
"These are not many. Let's have a prosperous year this year. I'll fry them and send some to your Uncle Li's family. He used to live in the channel and they helped us a lot." Grandma Su continued.
"Okay, I got it." Su Xiaoli nodded.
"Did Fei Han come back after the Lantern Festival? The factory has a holiday until the 16th day of the first lunar month." Zhang Yun pursed her lips and asked hesitantly.
She looked at Su Xiaoli. Now Zhang Yun felt that Gu Feihan was the child of this family, and returning to the capital was like visiting relatives.
"I don't know. Doesn't Xiang Qianjin have to take charge of the factory's operations? Gu Feihan hasn't been home for almost a year. He will have to stay at home for a few more days this time." Su Xiaoli thought for a while and replied.
"Manager Xiang can't come back soon. He went back to Beijing this time and can't come back until after his wedding. I heard that the wedding is scheduled for the 20th of the first lunar month." Zhang Yun heard this from an older sister in the workshop.
"Oh, it's true!" Su Xiaoli was surprised.
I should have prepared an extra gift for Gu Feihan to take with him.
But on second thought, she and Gu Feihan are not engaged now, so she can't be considered Xiang Qianjin's friend. Gu Feihan is not short of money anyway, and he will pay for it himself.
"I heard that Manager Xiang is one year younger than Feihan, and they are already married..." Zhang Yun and Grandma Su looked at each other and said.
Before Gu Feihan returned to Beijing, he took advantage of Su Xiaoli's absence to find the two elders in his family and formally proposed the engagement.
I hope it can be officially put on the agenda after the Chinese New Year. The general direction will definitely be to respect the opinions of the elders and Xiaoli himself, but... if it can be done earlier, the sooner the better.
