Chapter 188 Gu Jiu’s discovery
The beatings between his parents in his hometown did not affect the life of the Gu family in the provincial capital at all.
Lin Wei rented two adjacent shops near Gu Youhui's hotel. Gu Jiu hired some masons from the construction site where they built their house to open up the two shops, build stoves, and connect water pipes. Level the ground and scrape the surface.
Lin Wei closed the breakfast stall in the morning, and in the afternoon went to several villages on the outskirts of the city to find carpenters to order tables and benches, and paid the customers who came to have breakfast in exchange for industrial coupons. In preparation for the opening of the breakfast shop, industrial coupons can be exchanged for purchasing iron pots, kettles and other items.
Lin Shu went to the construction site, and Dabao happened to wake up when he came back.
Liu Xiao'e, who was sleeping with the children in the bedroom, saw her coming back and asked with a smile: "Why are you back so soon? How is the building over there?"
Lin Shu picked up Dabao and changed his urine. After washing the fart, Liu Xiaoe handed over the soaked milk bottle.
While feeding Dabao milk, Lin Shu replied: "The house has been built to the fourth floor, and it will be almost topped out in another month."
"Tsk, you said save it. There are so many houses in the city, and I think most of them are only two or three stories high. Why do we just want to build a seven-story building? How much does it cost to build it?”
Seven-story buildings are naturally not the tallest in the provincial capital, but most of the buildings in the residential compound are two or three stories high. , gave Liu Xiaoe a wrong guidance, thinking that two or three floors would be good.
"Mom, when the house over there is built, we plan to use the first and second floors as shops, and open a hotel on the third floor, which is a place for tourists to stay like a guest house. So no matter how big the investment is now, when it is completed, we will It can be put to use and make us money."< br>
Liu Xiao'e looked at her in shock, "My son-in-law took me to see it last time. The place is not small. There are many shops on the first and second floors. What kind of business are you going to do that will use so many shops?"< br>
Lin Shu waited for Dabao to finish drinking the milk and helped him dry it. Cleaning the milk stains from the corner of his mouth, he smiled and said: "There are eight shops in total, leaving two shops connected to the stairs as the future lobby of the hotel.
There are still six shops left, two for catering, and two One room is used to open a trading house, one is used to open a fruit shop, and one room is left Use it as a bakery or clothing store. Mom, do you think there are still more shops?”
Liu Xiao’e shook her head: “Tsk, you have opened so many shops, how about one more?” Rent it to your second brother and them to do some small business?”
"Give it to my second brother?" Lin Shu raised his head and looked at her in surprise, "Mom, do you want my eldest brother and second brother to come to the provincial capital?"
Liu Xiao'e had never even been out of the county town before, and this time she came to the provincial capital. The city naturally feels the prosperity of a big city, how can it be compared to a small county town.
"Since the eldest brother and his wife are unwilling to return to the county seat, let's just ask your second brother to come up too. We all have to take care of each other in the same city."
Lin Shu lived in In a big city, you naturally understand the advantages of a big city, and you can also better understand the pressure of life in a big city.
It can be said that there are advantages and disadvantages, it depends on the individual's opinion.
"If you want the second brother to come up, what about the canteen in the county?"
The old house Lin Shu bought in the county, except for the shop floor used for the canteen, if everyone comes to the provincial capital, the other rooms Then it will be empty.
Although the land in the old house will be valuable in the future, if it can be rented out to earn some rent now, Lin Shu will certainly not object to renting out the house.
Liu Xiao'e didn't know that Lin Shu was reluctant to give up, so she asked tentatively: "Why don't you transfer the canteen in the county to your sister and the others, and let your sister pay you the rent for the canteen every month?"
“It will take more than a month before the house is built. This paragraph You should contact your second brother first to see if they are willing to come up and fight. If they are not pressured to stay in the county town and guard the canteen, it is useless for you to book this shop with us now if they are not willing to come to the provincial capital to fight for an unknown future. .”
Lin Shu squeezed Dabao's little hand, saw his little head turning around, and smiled at him.
Speaking of the second brother's family in the county, Lin Shu remembered that when Lin Gang celebrated the New Year, his partner Fang Hong wanted Lin Gang to help him pay for opening a store.
She asked: "During the Chinese New Year, Fang Hong wanted Lin Gang to help her pay for the store. Lin Gang didn't seem to have much money at the time. How did they deal with it in the end? The store was opened. "
"What else can we do? Bianmao has been working for several months and has not saved any money. It's all for him and Fang Hong. People spent. But I wanted to do something here but couldn't get the money, so I asked your dad and I to borrow five hundred yuan. "
Liu Xiao'e is still very angry when I mention this," Fang Hong said. She and the third child got married, and the five hundred yuan was regarded as a bride price. If the two did not get together in the end, she would pay back the five hundred yuan. "
"Listen, what are you talking about? It seems that she doesn't sincerely live the same life as the third child. Who dares to have such a daughter-in-law? If the third child doesn't care about her, your father and I will I will never agree to the third child being in a relationship with her."
Lin Shu was speechless: "She. This is using Lin Gang as a spare tire. Don’t give him any money at that time.”
“That woman Fang Hong is very smart. She only said this after she got the money, otherwise. I will give her the money."
"Then you won't take the money back?" Lin Shu deliberately teased her.
Liu Xiao'e rolled her eyes, "After all, the third child likes me, so things can't be too ugly."
If Lin Gang didn't go to work at the hydropower station, he would definitely not have any interaction with Fang Hong. But just like in the previous life, he would fall in love with the third sister-in-law in the previous life, and even coax and deceive her into marrying her home.
Needless to say, Lin Shu has always liked her third sister-in-law in her previous life, who was hard-working, capable, virtuous and generous. Although Lin Gang was out of tune and their third sister-in-law had a hard life, she was very good to her family.
When Dabao heard this, he raised his little foot and kicked it twice, making baby talk in his mouth.
Lin Shu's attention was attracted and she smiled and squeezed his little hand, "Dabao doesn't like this third aunt either?"
"Ahhh~"
< br>
"But if you don't like it, I can't help it. Your third uncle likes it. How about waiting for your third uncle to hit the south wall and get a bloody head? How can we pity him and introduce him to a good girl?"
“Ahh~oh~”
“Don’t worry , I guess that Fang Hong is very ambitious, but I don’t know if your third uncle has made any progress. If he stays still, he will not be able to control Fang Hong’s rouge horse.”
Mother and son. After asking and answering, those who didn't know really thought that the mother and son were really having a conversation.
Liu Xiao'e was amused by them, walked to the crib, reached out and took Dabao out.
He smiled and said to Dabao: "Your mother and your third uncle have never dealt with each other since they were young. I think the person your mother finds for your third uncle will definitely not be liked by your third uncle. How about our Dabao grow up quickly and help you?" The third uncle is looking for a good wife?”
“Ah~”
Dabao was dancing excitedly, hurry up and find the third uncle, I don’t care how much he slaps me. The third aunt in the previous life was so kind, how could she be fascinated by the vixen?
Liu Xiao'e happily said to Lin Shu: "Look, our Dabao understands."
After saying that, she kissed Dabao: "Okay, okay, wait until your third uncle is abandoned. I will leave it to you to help him find a virtuous wife.”
"Who can I help find a virtuous wife?" Gu Jiu walked in from outside.
Lin Shu smelled the stink and said with a smile: "You came just in time. Your son has stinky poop. Please help him wash his butt quickly. When he grows up, help him find a good man. "My wife."
Dabao frowned, and glanced at Lin Shu with a confused look after hearing this, "Don't you know who your wife was in your previous life?"
How could Liu Xiao'e ask Gu Jiu who had just returned home to wash his butt? She quickly stood up and hugged Dabao and wanted to go to the bathroom, "No, I'll do it. Brother Jiu has just come back, you sit down Let’s take a rest and I’ll wash this stinky butt.”
These words made Dabao anxious.
Lin Shu stopped him with a smile: "Mom, Dabao likes Gu Jiu to wash his farts the most. If you wash him, he will cry." "Is there such a thing?" Liu Xiao'e didn't believe that a baby of more than one month old still knew how to choose. people?
She looked down at Dabao in disbelief. The boy was blushing and twisting his body to resist.
Gu Jiu has tried it many times, and he doesn’t know why. This kid just likes him to wash his farts and bathe him. It is said that his movements are not gentle enough. This boy doesn't like his gentle mother and likes him to help him wash. I really can't figure it out.
Oddly enough, when Gu Jiu took Dabao from Liu Xiao'e, the boy stopped making trouble.
He quietly let Gu Jiu carry him into the bathroom to wash his buttocks. He didn't cry or fuss the whole time, he was extremely well-behaved.
"I've washed him more than once. Why haven't I seen him crying before?" Liu Xiao'e asked curiously.
Lin Shu couldn't help but laugh and explained: "When you helped him wash before, was it possible that Gu was not at home for a long time?"
Liu Xiao'e thought about it for a moment and widened her eyes: "It's true, this child Now that you have become a sperm, you can choose someone after more than a month?”
Lin Shu smiled and said nothing.
While joking, Erbao woke up.
After feeding the two babies, Liu Xiaoe carried Erbao to the first floor.
Gu Jiu leaned over and stared at Dabao lying on the bed, raising his eyebrows: "Er Bao likes to hang out outside. Why do you like to stay quietly, compared to girls? "Are you good?"
Dabao rolled his eyes at him. He was not a real baby. He didn't need any strength to cry, right?
Gu Jiu shouted in surprise: "Shu Shu, this kid rolled his eyes at me just now. What did he mean? Do you have any objections to praising him for being good?"
"Haha." Lin Shu couldn't help but laugh. She probably guessed that the older boy didn't like to compare him with girls.
"Of course he won't like to hear it if you compare him with girls. You have to praise him with some words that boys like to hear."
"What do boys like to hear?" Gu Jiu said in disgust. He glanced at the little one and said, "Am I going to praise him for his good figure, good looks, and big bird?"
"Pfft!"
"Haha."
Lin Shu smiled and fell on the bed.
Gu Jiu was surprised to find Dabao lying on the bed who should not understand anything.
At this moment, his face turned red and he glared at him.
Actually, the baby's eyes were not very lethal, they were soft and cute, but Gu Jiuxun saw anger in his eyes, and it was anger that turned into anger from embarrassment.
“Hey, this is strange.”
Gu Jiu seemed to have discovered a new continent, staring in deep thought.
After a while, he came close to Lin Shu and whispered: "Honey, do you think Dabao can understand human speech?"
Lin Shu glanced at him and even turned over. Dabao, who couldn't do it, nodded: "We Dabao is the smartest kid in the world.”
“Tsk, so you’ve discovered it a long time ago, why didn’t you tell me about it?” Gu Jiu was very interested in Dabao now and seemed to want to study it. , how many words he can probably understand.
"If I tell you, will you believe me?" Lin Shu pushed him away, "Rather than me telling you, it's better for you to discover it yourself."
Gu Jiu lay on his side next to Dabao, supported his head, and asked in what he thought was a very gentle voice: "Dabao, can you understand me, right? Can you speak? Why don't you call daddy first to listen? ”
Ah, bah! Dabao spat outside, trying to take advantage of him, but there was no way.
The result was that Dabao started spitting outside.
"Hey, I said you kid won't scream unless you scream, why are you spitting out?" Gu Jiu took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
Lin Shu suppressed a smile, took a sip of warm water, held the water cup and said: "If I were Dabao, I would only say 'Go away' to you. You are so young and haven't even learned the pronunciation yet. You Just ask him to call you dad. You might as well ask him to walk on the ground.”
Gu Jiuhehezhile: "Didn't I see that my son is smart? He can understand everything, and he must be close to speaking."
Lin Shu saw Dabao yawning, thinking that he When he fell asleep, he gently patted him to coax him to sleep.
Dabao sighed helplessly, why do adults need to be coaxed to sleep? However, he has no right to protest now.
Lin Shu saw that Dabao's eyes had closed slightly, and asked Gu Jiu: "Now that our house over there has been built to the fourth floor, how much did it cost to buy materials and labor?"
"It's less than 10,000 yuan. The main reason is that it costs a lot to buy building materials, and the labor money is not used much."
Gu Jiu asked people to bring in materials. He did not buy materials for building one floor, but used trucks to bring them back, and he took as much as he could.
The building materials are probably enough to build a five-story building, and the rest can only be used when the materials are poor.
"The money is really enough now. It cost less than 10,000 yuan to build the fourth floor." Lin Shu raised her eyebrows. According to this progress, she has more than 87,000 yuan in the system. The money is enough to build and decorate the entire building.
Gu Jiu pinched her cheek and said with a smile: "It doesn't cost much to build a house in the early stage, but it will cost more to decorate later. After the hotel is decorated, it will cost more to buy furniture, curtains, bedding, etc. It will be bigger.”
Gu Jiubi said that some supplies cannot be bought with money, and you need to ask someone to find connections and prepare the supplies from special channels.
Of course, he also knew that Lin Shu had some connections, but not all supplies could be purchased by her.
Lin Shu slapped his hand away and glared at him angrily, "Don't pinch the flesh on my cheeks loose, or they will sag prematurely."
"As you said. It will cost a lot later, so do we have enough money prepared? Make some preparations in advance? For example, how many times should I take time to go into the mountains? "
"The children are still so young and they can't live without you. We can wait until they are older to do so." Gu Jiu. Without thinking, he rejected Lin Shu's proposal to go up the mountain.
“Now, in addition to breast milk, babies also drink milk powder. In addition, there are people at home to take care of them, so going up the mountain will not have much impact. I haven’t gone up the mountain for a long time, and I want to take time to go there!”
Lin Shu also wanted to take advantage of the fact that the weather is not too hot now and go to the mountains a few more times to increase the points in the system and collect enough 100,000 to upgrade.
After the system mall is upgraded, what products will be added is something she has been looking forward to for a long time.
Gu Jiu looked at her helplessly, "But I will be very busy recently. Construction sites, trading houses, and companies all need me. I am too busy to accompany you into the mountains."
"In Before I met you, I still went into the mountain alone. You were busy with your business, and I just went up the mountain by myself. You don’t have to worry about me.”
