Chapter 220 Don’t Tell Mom and Dad
Gu Ye's sudden return scared everyone, and they all thought that something had happened to him.
According to what they had discussed before coming back, they bought the tickets and called Gu Ye, who went to the train station to pick them up.
Why are you back suddenly now?
Everyone looked at Gu Ye nervously and worriedly.
Gu Ye held it in for a while and said, "Didn't we agree to come back in half a month? When half a month is up, I'll come and take you back."
Shen Dahe, who was originally very satisfied with Gu Ye, frowned. Is he so anxious?
He also wanted his wife, daughter and grandchildren to stay at home for two more days.
Chen Cuijuan was also speechless, but she had long been accustomed to her son-in-law's behavior.
Outsiders thought that her daughter was too delicate and weak to leave Gu Ye, but Chen Cuijuan knew it very well in her heart!
My daughter is obedient in words but soft-hearted in heart, but she is actually a carefree person.
This time, I had so much fun at home that I didn’t really want to go back.
The person I really can’t live without is my son-in-law!
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan hadn't seen their father for half a month. Now they suddenly saw their father and were surprised and happy. They surrounded their father and told him how happy they were playing at their grandparents' house.
As for Shen Zhiyou...
He turned his face away silently, his eyes curved with a smile.
Gu Ye still looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. He said half a month, and that was half a month! He came to pick up his wife on time, what's the problem?
no problem!
Not only did Gu Ye come back, but he also bought the train tickets.
He also thoughtfully bought some for Tiedan and Goudan.
Now that’s terrible. Originally, if I went to buy tickets tomorrow, the earliest I would be leaving would be the day after tomorrow, but now I have to leave early tomorrow morning!
While Shen Dahe was thinking that his son-in-law was too hardworking, he hurried to his mother's house, that is, Grandma Shen's house.
I picked a bag of their unique yellow peaches.
I took them back, washed them, and packed them. "Tomorrow morning I'll go to the fields and pick some cucumbers and tomatoes to take with me. It's uncomfortable to ride in a car on a hot day. These will quench your thirst and fill your stomach."
Wang Xiulan and the others are also busy.
In addition to these fruits and vegetables, I quickly fried a pot of dried fish.
Add a little bit of oil to the marinated fish and fry it slowly. Although it may be a bit dry and sticky, it is fragrant and not easy to go bad!
They have cheap fish, so they just fill a big box!
When he returned the next day, Gu Ye was carrying a lot of bags again.
Shen Zhiyou also carried some things, which were cucumbers and tomatoes picked for them by Shen Dahe early in the morning. They were so sweet.
Shen Zhiyou and the others were familiar with the route this time when taking the train, but Tiedan and Goudan, who were traveling far away for the first time, were a little cautious.
Shen Zhiyou asked them to follow her closely, "There are beggars on this bus, please follow us closely."
"I understand, auntie."
Gu Ye should save where he should and spend where he should—save for himself and spend for his wife and children.
I went back alone and bought a hard seat ticket.
I bought sleeper tickets for my wife and children.
Tiedan and Goudan felt very uncomfortable after getting on the train, but after knowing that their father had bought all the tickets for the entire carriage, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan sat down on the lower bunk beds with confidence, "Brother Tiedan, Brother Goudan, you guys sit down!"
"Oh, okay."
Tiedan and Goudan looked everywhere, curious about everything.
At noon, train staff came over with carts to sell boxed lunches.
Shen Zhiyou called the staff over and asked everyone else to order one portion except for herself and Manman.
When Tiedan and Goudan heard that the lunch boxes were so expensive, they quickly said, "Aunt, we don't want to eat them. We brought some steamed bread instead."
"I'll save the steamed corn bread for when I'm hungry at night. I finally got out for once, so I'll try the boxed lunch on the train."
Nowadays, many people have never traveled far, so train staff are no longer surprised by this.
Seeing that they were two little boys, he smiled and said, "The boxed lunches on our train are very affordable, with one meat and one vegetable, and no food coupons are required. They taste good too, so you can try them. I guarantee you won't regret it."
They are at home every day.
No matter if they are from the county town or the countryside, everyone looks like they are about to fight when they open their mouths.
Now that someone was suddenly speaking to them so gently in Mandarin, the brothers felt even more embarrassed and nodded awkwardly.
Tiedan and Goudan looked at each other, rolled up their pants, and took out a few dimes from their socks: "Aunt, grandpa gave us money when he went out. We have money, so we'll give it to him."
"How can I let you kids give me money? Take the money quickly."
Shen Zhiyou divided the lunch boxes and looked at Tiedan and Goudan with a smile.
The next second, the four little ones, Tuantuan, Yuanyuan, Nian Nian Manman, and others suddenly spoke up: "Grandpa also gave us money and told us not to tell mom and dad."
Gu Ye frowned: "How can you take grandpa's money?"
Shen Zhiyou was also stunned, "Yeah, why are you telling mom and dad now?"
Manman blinked and said, "Grandpa won't let us say it. He said the weather is hot and all the sugar at home has melted, so he asked us to buy some candy ourselves."
The four little guys took out their money, the same amount as Tiedan and Goudan, all of which were wrinkled and the edges were worn to the point of being hairy.
Shen Zhiyou's eyes suddenly turned red. She turned her head and bit her lips tightly, fearing that she would cry if she was not careful.
Chen Cuijuan didn't expect that the old man would do this.
Seeing her daughter crying, she cleared her throat and said, "Put it away quickly. Don't tell mom and dad next time, okay?"
The four little guys stared at each other.
Should I tell my parents?
Gu Ye was helpless: "........Mom."
Chen Cuijuan smiled and said, "Oh, it's not a big deal. Your dad can save the money he usually spends on cigarettes and you can get the money. Okay, let's eat quickly."
Because of Shen Dahe's behavior, Shen Zhiyou felt depressed all the way.
The first thing I did when I got home was to take the four kids and tell them, "Grandpa is old, and they earn their money by doing heavy farm work under the sun. To give you this pocket money, Grandpa has to work in the fields for a month to earn it back. You can't accept money from Grandpa in the future, understand? Whatever you want, Mom and Dad will buy it for you."
Normally Shen Zhiyou is generous to her four children, so they don't have much idea about money.
Now after hearing what their mother said, the little ones all regretted their decision and whined about calling their grandfather.
