Chapter 291: Gu Ji comes again
If it wasn't for sale, he wouldn't buy it, but he also told the village chief privately, asking him to keep an eye out and inform him as soon as possible if he wanted to sell it.
Of course, the old men had thought about it, and when Shi Weichen was around, they asked him to ask.
The information Shi Weichen obtained was that He Anze and the others had reserved it, and only then did the old men calm down their restlessness.
"So in short supply?" Gu Ji really didn't expect it.
"It's not that it's urgent, but those old guys wanted to occupy the bottom line. Unfortunately, my Xiaoxue and the others were one step ahead of them." Speaking of this, Grandma He was as happy as a child.
Gu Ji understood. Grandma He loved to argue with those old men on a daily basis. It seemed that she won.
"Of course, Anze and his wife have good taste. It's all thanks to you, grandma." It was the first time that he was so insincere in praising someone.
Gu Ji wiped the sweat from his head and said, "Grandma, it's really hot here." He quickly changed the subject.
"It's hot, haha. It's good here in winter. No one can stand it in summer. Only Xiaoxue likes to come here for a stroll in summer." The yard of his house is unmatched in the surrounding area.
Even the officials in the county may not have a yard as big as their own.
"Soaking in hot springs in the summer is good for your health." She wondered why she came here in the summer.
"Yes, that's what she said. Not only did she say that, but Old Man Mu also said that. But there were a few people who came here to soak in the hot summer."
Because it is a courtyard with four entrances, it takes a while to walk to the back.
As they walked and talked, Gu Ji finally heard some talking. He finally relaxed a little. Grandma He was really talkative.
Mei Xue and the old man did not go to the back, but to the third courtyard. Usually no one lived here, but it was wide, much wider than the first two courtyards.
In addition, this is the only place where there is no spring, so compared to other places, it is not that hot.
"Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, look who's here." Grandma He also heard the voice and immediately shouted to the person inside.
Mei Xue was helping Grandma Mu cook. When she heard what was happening, she quickly ran out of the kitchen.
"Run slower." Grandma Mu called out, somewhat worriedly.
"It's okay, grandma called me." Mei Xue cares about her grandma the most.
Hearing this, Grandma Mu was envious from the bottom of her heart.
Aunt Yong saw the look in Old Madam Mu's eyes and smiled, "Xiaoxue is like this. No one can call her as close as her grandmother. As long as Third Aunt speaks, Xiaoxue will come."
"Yes, Xiaoxue is really filial."
"That's right, it's the only one of its kind in the village." Aunt Yong gave a thumbs up.
Not to mention, in this village of grandmother and granddaughter, they are the two that get along the best.
On weekdays, let alone quarreling, I have never seen them even get angry with each other.
Outside, Mei Xue's hands were still greasy because she was making dumplings today. "Grandma, what did you ask me to do?"
As soon as she asked the question, Mei Xue saw someone walking behind her grandmother, "Brother Gu is here." Seeing the person coming, Mei Xue also called out with a smile.
In the past, what was a smiley face?
No.
But now, Mei Xue has changed herself a long time ago and is no longer the cold-hearted Mei Xue.
It was Mei Xue, the granddaughter-in-law of the He family.
Mei Xue is a flesh-and-blood girl.
"Xiaoxue, what are you doing?" Seeing her hands covered in oil, Gu Ji asked in confusion.
Mei Xue looked at her hands and said, "Hey, I'm making dumplings right now, but I don't know how, so my hands are all over the place." Mei Xue didn't think there was anything to be ashamed of.
It's true that she can eat, but she really isn't very good at doing these delicate chores.
"Then I've come at the right time." Gu Ji said happily.
"It's okay, just add some more later." Grandma He said jokingly.
The old men heard the sound and came out of a room.
"Oh, isn't this Public Security Gu? Do you smell something?" Uncle Shi's mouth is very similar to An Liang's.
Now that An Liang is no longer in the village, Grandma He usually relies on him to remember An Liang.
"Yes, hello, old men. You are enjoying a good life here." Gu Ji was envious.
If possible, he would like to send his old man over, but unfortunately, his family's situation is different, and the old man cannot be separated from the medicine now.
"You are absolutely right. We are really enjoying ourselves here. No one else has a better life than us." Grandpa Sun, who was walking behind, said to Grandpa Shi.
"That's right. We can't have such a good and carefree life at home." The old men following behind came out one by one and replied with a smile.
Gu Ji knows the identities of these old men. Don't ask him why he knows. He always has his channels.
"Then you must stay here permanently." Gu Ji said politely, feeling very envious.
Xiaopeng and Xiaocheng saw the person coming, but they didn't know him.
Even if they have seen it before, they are still young and how can they remember it?
"Xiaopeng and Xiaocheng, come here quickly and call people. Just call Uncle Gu." Mei Xue waved to her two sons.
When the two saw outsiders coming, they stopped playing around and became serious.
"Hello, Uncle Gu." He called politely.
"Hey, Xiaopeng and Xiaocheng, I haven't seen you for a while. You've grown so tall and strong." Gu Ji walked forward and weighed the two little guys.
The two were somewhat reluctant, but after looking at their mother and wife, they calmed down.
"They are so naughty. How can they not be strong? They eat a lot every day." Grandma He said with disdain.
I said this, but I didn't know how to be happy in my heart.
With one more person at noon, the house became even more lively.
The meal officially started only after Mr. Zhang, He Zhengbei and Xiaowei arrived.
After lunch, the old man and his family took the children to digest the food. Grandma He looked at Gu Ji's expression and thought he had something to say.
So I stayed.
"Xiaoxue, Grandma He, I came here this time because I want to ask for your help with something." He didn't expect that his small shop would be so profitable.
His wife wanted to expand the business, so he had no choice but to come along on this trip. If he wasn't really too busy working in the store, his wife would have come along too.
"Tell me everything in advance. We will help you if we can, but..." Grandma He held Mei Xue's hand and spoke first.
"Of course, it's not a big deal. As you know, I bought vegetables from your house and the village and brought them back to Mingcheng to sell. I originally wanted to eat them myself and find something for my wife to do so that she wouldn't be so bored at home."
Gu Ji did not hide it, "Who knew that the business is getting better and better. Now many people are having a hard time getting vegetables. The vegetables grown by the villagers are quite different. And you know my family's connections, Xiaoxue."
Speaking of this, Gu Ji felt a little embarrassed.
Mei Xue knew it. He Anze had told her that the Gu family came from an official family, so the people they knew must be extraordinary.
