Gu Wei sped along the city streets on his motorcycle with Gu Hongjie on the back. As soon as they arrived at the shop, they felt their face and hands freezing.
After all, the Qingming Festival had just passed, the spring breeze was biting, and the weather was still a bit cold.
When Li Bin and the others saw that Gu Wei had returned on a motorcycle, they all came out of the store.
They gathered around, both delighted and envious.
Li Bin had his eye on motorcycles for a long time but hadn't been willing to buy them before. He never expected that the God of Wealth would just buy them on a whim.
"Brother Gu, this motorcycle is so cool!"
"Not bad, Xiao Jie has taken a liking to it." Gu Wei said with a smile, putting his arm around Gu Hongjie's shoulder.
Gu Hongjie immediately raised his chin proudly, "This motorcycle is the best-looking and coolest in the store!"
Li Bin smiled and shook his head. He had to admit that the God of Wealth was really good to Gu Hongjie, sometimes even making him, an adult, envious.
Several sales clerks were also talking at once.
"That must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"Several thousand!"
"It would be best to knit a car seat cushion and a handlebar."
"..."
Gu Wei brought Gu Hongjie back not to show off, but because it was too cold and they came to the store to get thick clothes, hats, gloves, and scarves.
Otherwise, the two of them would freeze to death before they even got home, riding on a rickety, flesh-and-iron saddlebag.
So they only stayed for a short while, got fully armed, and then headed back home.
It takes more than 40 minutes to get from the city to the Forestry Bureau by small train.
This was Gu Wei's first time riding a motorcycle.
The two timed it perfectly, and when they got home, they found that they had indeed saved a lot of time.
Once the weather gets warmer, riding a motorcycle back and forth should be even more pleasant and comfortable.
In the 1980s, the sudden appearance of a motorcycle in front of your house would feel much like seeing a luxury car in later generations.
Gu Jianguo and his neighbors quickly gathered around.
Nowadays, for people who can afford it, the only means of transportation is a bicycle.
It's not that there aren't any people buying motorcycles, but rather that very few do.
Gu Wei understood the feelings of his grandfather and the neighbors, so he deliberately waited outside for a long time before letting Gu Hongjie open the door and push him inside.
Although Gu Jianguo felt that Gu Wei was spending money recklessly and had quietly purchased a huge item, he was a little distressed about the cost.
But he also absolutely loved the brand-new motorcycle.
Men are naturally very interested in these things.
"This motorcycle is so new, you have to be careful when riding it, don't bump or scratch it."
"Grandpa, bumps and bruises are normal," Gu Wei suggested. "How about I give you guys a ride for a spin later?"
Gu Jianguo rubbed his hands together with a broad smile, "Sure, I've never ridden a motorcycle before."
Gu Hongjie had already sat down and began chattering about his feelings.
Li Guizhi watched the three of them standing next to the motorcycle, talking non-stop, and smiled to herself.
If someone who doesn't know their true relationship saw this, they would never guess that there's a relative involved.
The news that Gu Wei had bought a motorcycle quickly spread like wildfire to many people's ears...
