Chapter 38: My mother is still working so hard at her age
When the mother and daughter returned home, they saw Gu Jiabao squatting at the door. His originally strong body seemed to have become a little thinner.
But with this big body crouching at the door, it's still easy to be startled if you're not careful.
"What are you doing back here? Aren't you here to visit your grandparents? If you have the guts, don't come back to my house!"
Gu Jiabao had been waiting for a whole day. At noon, he saw that the door inside was still not open, so he shamelessly went to his second uncle's house for lunch.
But after returning home, he was looked down upon by his second aunt.
But there was no way, Gu Jiabao didn't want to starve.
After dinner, he was driven out by Second Aunt in a sarcastic tone. On the way, Gu Jiabao also figured it out.
It seems that only my parents would spoil me like this.
The grandparents said that they were the eldest grandson, but when the eldest grandson was hungry, the old couple dared not say a word. Gu Jiabao was really disappointed.
In the end, I could only come back with my head hung.
But when I came back, I saw that the door was closed, so I could only continue waiting outside.
I waited for most of the day before I saw my mother and second sister coming back, talking and laughing.
The first thing he said when he stood up was a subconscious accusation.
"Mom, why did you come back just now? I've been waiting for you here for a whole day."
Gu Jiabao's expression even showed a hint of grievance.
Lin Xiuzhen didn't have a good attitude towards her son.
After saying that, he opened the door and went in.
Gu Jiabao didn't dare to say anything and followed in happily. As a result, he saw Gu Chunlan at home.
"Sister, why don't you make any noise at home?"
Gu Jiabao immediately became unhappy when he saw Gu Chunlan at home.
Does waiting at the door by yourself make you look a bit stupid?
"I'm in bed! You didn't ask me to open the door?"
Gu Jiabao:.......
Gu Chunlan just glanced at him and then stopped looking at him. Instead, she looked at Lin Xiuzhen.
"Mother, second sister, you are back. Why did you take so long today?"
"It's okay, I was just delayed by something. Here, I bought this for you at the state-owned restaurant. I'll heat it up for you."
Lin Xiuzhen looked at her eldest daughter's worried eyes and knew that she was worried about her.
"Big sister, let me tell you, mom has become the chef of this state-owned restaurant!"
Gu Xialin leaned close to her elder sister's ear and whispered the news.
She had been holding it in all the way and couldn't wait to share it, but she knew to avoid Gu Jiabao when she spoke.
"What?"
Gu Chunlan was a little slow to react.
Didn’t her mother and second sister go to sell pickled bamboo shoots this morning?
How did you suddenly become a chef in a state-owned restaurant?
Gu Chunlan almost screamed, but was stopped by Gu Xialin.
"Hey~ Sister, please sit down, I will explain this to you in detail..."
Gu Xialin excitedly pulled the person to sit aside, and then started to talk with an excited expression, as if she was the one who was going to work in the state-owned restaurant.
Gu Jiabao wanted to get closer to listen to what he heard about this state-owned restaurant, but he was glared at as soon as he got closer.
"What are you listening to? Go away."
After being disliked by his own mother, Gu Jiabao was also disliked by his two sisters.
The two sisters went aside and started chattering again.
Lin Xiuzhen was in the kitchen and began to direct Gu Jiabao to work.
"Gu Laowu, go find some firewood for me. There's no firewood at home!"
"oh!"
Gu Jiabao went out with a look of grievance on his face.
Gu Xialin pulled Gu Chunlan aside to talk to her, and her expression was extremely excited.
"Sister, mom is still working so hard even at her old age. I think I should learn from her and strive to become a worker in the city in the future."
Workers at this time are still very popular.
In the current environment, everyone is proud to be able to work in the city.
Gu Chunlan never thought that just by going out for a trip, she would have such an opportunity.
I was immediately envious.
"Second sister, I think you can do it, but it's all my fault. I'm holding you back at home."
"Big sister, what are you talking about? We are a family, how can we talk about whether we will be held back? Now that you have a child, you should take good care of the pregnancy. Later, we will raise the child together. Don't worry, as your second aunt, I will definitely help you raise the child."
Gu Xialin didn't want her elder sister to feel guilty all the time. After all, they were a family and everyone had difficulties.
Since we are a family, we naturally need to support each other.
Sometimes there is no need to care so much.
"good!"
Gu Chunlan was very touched. She was clearly the one who was a burden to her family, but her family members didn't mind.
Even her mother, at her old age, has to work as a worker to earn money to support the whole family.
As the eldest sister, she has now become a burden to the family.
"Come, eat the buns. Don't think too much. Eat what you can eat and do what you need to do. Don't feel stressed. I can still support you guys now. When I get older, remember to respect me as your mother."
"Mom, I will definitely be filial to you! Not only will I be filial to you, I will also let the baby in my belly be filial to you." Gu Chunlan quickly promised.
Just because she came home with a big belly and her mother was so good to her, Gu Chunlan felt that she should do this.
"Okay, I'll wait then."
Lin Xiuzhen didn't say whether she believed it or not. In fact, no matter what time it is, it is safer to hold the money in your own hands.
No one is more important than yourself.
Even your children may not be reliable. At critical moments, you still have to have money in your hands.
Gu Xialin, the second in command, usually doesn't talk, but she quickly stepped forward to make a guarantee.
"Yes, mother, don't worry, I will definitely honor you."
I must not fall behind at this time.
"Okay, then I'll wait to enjoy the blessings of you girls in the future."
Lin Xiuzhen was in high spirits. It seemed that her emotional strategies during this period were still useful. Seeing that these children were slowly accepting her, Lin Xiuzhen was very satisfied.
"Okay, mother, just wait, I will make you the happiest old lady in the village!"
Gu Xialin's little mouth uttered a few nice words.
"Okay, you guys eat, I'll go to the brigade headquarters and ask the captain to issue me a certificate!"
Lin Xiuzhen went out after saying this, and when she arrived at the brigade headquarters, she just happened to see the brigade commander.
When Captain Li Guosheng saw Lin Xiuzhen, he spoke a few words first.
"Mr. Gu, no one in your family has been working for a while. What's going on?"
Lin Xiuzhen also realized that the household contract responsibility system had not yet been implemented, and she had been busy during this period and had not really been working in the fields to earn work points.
She only realized it belatedly when someone asked her about it, but now she has to go to work in town and doesn't have to go to the fields anymore.
He immediately smiled embarrassedly.
"I'm so sorry, Captain. I've been busy at home lately. By the way, I came to you to get a certificate. Can you help me transfer my food registration? I'm going to work at this state-owned restaurant in town."
Lin Xiuzhen said this and handed the certificate in her hand to the captain.
Li Guosheng almost laughed out loud.
