Chapter 254
In the living room.
"Second brother, is the house about to be robbed?"
Gu Changsheng lived in the countryside when he was young, so he still knows a little about the basic seasons.
Brother Gu has been raised in a rural family since he was a child and has limited knowledge. If you ask him about some things in the city, he may not be able to answer you, but he knows more about farming than anyone else.
"The early rice will be harvested in about half a month and twenty days. In the past few days, the grain seeds have been soaked at home. When the early rice is harvested, I will ask the children at home to bring some new rice for you to try."
Gu Changsheng waved his hand: "You guys share it. Just keep that little grain for yourself, we have grain here.”
After the rice is put into the warehouse, you have to wait until all the rice seedlings are planted, and then you have to collect peanuts, soybeans, etc., and then divide them. Rice, almost a month or two later.
The most important thing is that there is no shortage of food at home. It is too troublesome to pick up rice from the countryside.
"Dad, it's one thing to have food at home. Don't refuse it if I send it to you. This is my filial piety to you." Brother Gu insisted on sending it.
There is nothing valuable in the countryside. The only things that can honor your parents are some agricultural products. If you grow them yourself, they taste different from the ones you buy.
Gu Changsheng looked at Gu Er Ge's face that was more weathered than his own, and nodded with a sour heart: "Okay, then your mother and I will also have a taste of the food you grew by yourself."
Parents are happy when their children are filial.
But Wang Suzhen is also worried that the children will not live well.
For example, this time Brother Gu came to the city during the busy farming season and said, "Second brother, your brothers are back. Tell me the truth. Did you come to the city for something during the busy farming season? Or is it home? What trouble did you encounter? ”
Brother Gu, who originally had a slight smile on his face, couldn't even smile after hearing this.
Facing the worried eyes of his family, he glanced at his wife, and after a moment, he said: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that the second daughter-in-law needs an operation for gallbladder stones this time, and the family can't afford it. "Money."
"Oh, you kid, you are so hesitant to talk about such an important thing at this time, I am really anxious!" .
I took my time to say it now.
They held it back without asking if it was true.
Gu Changsheng put down his tea cup and asked worriedly: "Is it serious?"
Gu Erge nodded and shook his head: "The second brother is in a hospital where he has cholecystitis. Now he has recovered from the inflammation, but the doctor said There are a lot of stones in the gallbladder, and the best way is to remove them through surgery. But the family’s annual income is only three melons and two dates, and they can’t pay for the surgery.”
As soon as this was said, everyone was relieved. Take a breath, it's good that the person's life is not in danger at the moment.
"Too many gallbladder stones may cause blockage of the cystic duct. If the blockage causes pancreatitis and the treatment is not timely, it will be life-threatening. You must listen to the doctor." Wang Suzhen patted the second brother Gu's hand. Hand, "If you don't have enough money, just come to us."
Wang Suzhen and Gu Changsheng didn't need to say anything, and the Gu family brothers started to put money into their pockets.
Although Gu Xiang and Gu Mingqi are housekeepers at home, they always have some spare money in their pockets because of their positions.
The two took out the money from their pockets, and together they had about three hundred yuan.
After Gu Zhiyuan emptied all four pockets, he only had a dozen dollars.
I wanted to ask my wife to come out with some money, but unfortunately Jiang Chaohong was helping in the kitchen at the moment.
Gu Jiu had the most money in his pocket, nearly 400 yuan. "Second brother, how much does it cost for my niece's surgery? Is this enough money? If not, I will ask Lin Shu to go home and get some. .”
Gu Zhiyuan, who only had a dozen yuan, couldn't help but blush.
Nowadays, medical conditions are poor, especially in rural areas. Sometimes it is inconvenient to come to the city to see a doctor when you are sick. The distance is long, and many diseases are delayed.
Once gallbladder stones are discovered, they must be treated.
That’s why the Gu brothers would spend money without hesitation.
Lin Shu heard the noise outside and walked out of the kitchen, "I still have more than two hundred here. Gu Jiu, give it to your second brother first."
Gu Changsheng pointed to the money on the table and motioned to Brother Gu to put it away, "This is your brothers' wish. Your mother and I will pay for the surgery."
Afraid that the brothers would have objections, he He then said to the Gu family brothers: "The second oldest brother is also your brother. Forget it if he hasn't been found. Now that he has been found, he will have his share in the last division of the family.
He grew up in the farm. The village elder has never enjoyed any benefits from his family. This time, I made the decision to give him the apartment on Juzi Road and use two thousand yuan from my and your mother's savings as his settlement expenses. Do you have any objections? "
The brothers of the Gu family shook their heads. Just because the second brother Gu was illiterate, they could imagine what the second brother Gu had lived in the past few decades. How could they dare to have any objections.
The second brother Gu was shocked when he heard what Gu Changsheng said. How much is a house in the provincial capital worth? There were still two thousand yuan, which was so much money that he had never seen in his life.
"Dad, this money is enough for the surgery. Don't waste it on you and mom. Keep your money for your own retirement."
After hearing the money and house given by her father-in-law, Sister-in-law Gu couldn't breathe. Without any response, the man waved his hand and refused, almost getting angry to death.
As the son of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, why don't they want this house and money? It's what they deserve.
But this was in front of her parents-in-law, the men were talking, and she, a woman, did not dare to interrupt.
She has no place to comment.
"Take what is given to you. Suzhen and I are not short of pension money."
After Gu Changsheng finished speaking, Wang Suzhen asked Gu Jiu to go to their room and take down the house book and bankbook from the safe.
While waiting for the house book and passbook, Jiang Chaohong and Li Ling, who happened to be busy in the kitchen, ran out to join in the fun.
Gu Zhiyuan thought that all the brothers had contributed, and he had the least money, so he really couldn't get rid of it. When he saw Jiang Chaohong, his eyes lit up, "Chaohong, how much money do you have, take it quickly Come out and collect the surgery fee for your second brother.”
Jiang Chaohong instinctively put a hand on her trouser pocket, but with so many eyes on her family, she really didn’t dare to be clever.
It's just that Gu Zhiyuan has been scolded countless times in his heart.
"Haha. I need to count that. I bought groceries this morning and I don't know how much money I have in my pocket."
Li Ling urged her, "Hurry up and count it out. Count, the second brother is waiting for the money. If everyone pools their money together, maybe we can get the money. "
Second brother Gu saw that Jiang Chaohong was a little reluctant, smiled and waved his hand and said, "Brother and sister, you don't need to take it. This should be enough for everyone."
"It's okay. , This is the fourth child's wish, just accept it if he gives it to you." Gu Changsheng said.
As soon as everyone opened their mouth, Jiang Chaohong had to take it out no matter how painful it was.
Everyone counted sixty-two dollars and fifty-six cents.
Gu Changsheng asked her to take a round number, sixty-two yuan, leaving the fifty-six cents for her to buy vegetables tomorrow.
Jiang Chaohong regrets it.
If I had known that her pockets would be drained, I should have put the money in a drawer at home after buying groceries today.
Lin Shu suppressed a smile and watched Jiang Chaohong's face turn green and red, which was very exciting.
Since he was waiting for the money for the surgery, Gu Changsheng asked Gu Youhui to go to his work to bring his car over. After dinner, he would send Gu Laoer and his wife back to the prefecture-level city overnight.
If it weren't for his grandson's wife's health, Gu Changsheng would have wanted Gu Youhui to drive him to the provincial capital for surgery.
However, gallbladder surgery is not a major surgery, and the medical conditions in prefecture-level hospitals can fully cope with it.
Waiting for the four brothers, Gu Xiaoming and Gu Xiaoxing, who worked at the food factory of Gu Jiu Company, to come back from get off work, dinner was put on the table.
Gu Xiaoxing learned from his parents that his wife was going to undergo surgery for gallstones. He hurriedly grabbed a bowl of rice and ran upstairs to pack his luggage, preparing to take the car back to his hometown together later. After seeing off Brother Gu and his family, Gu Jiu and Lin Shu also said goodbye to their parents.
On the way home, Gu Jiu joked: "I paid the most money today, why did you also pay your own money?"
Lin Shu faced the evening breeze outside the car window and said with a smile: "If my second brother asks me for money tonight for no reason, I won't give it. But they are in trouble and they are waiting for money to save their lives. Even if Even if it’s 22,000, I will try my best to help him get it together.
People, life in this world cannot be smooth, and there will always be obstacles that cannot be overcome. At this time, I need help from my relatives and friends. It is easy to get over the hurdle, and if there is no one to help, it may be a hurdle that will never be overcome. As long as blood relatives are not enemies, help if you can."
The second wife may usually have her own little plans, but when life and death are at stake, other things are trivial and there is no need to dwell on them.
“My wife is very generous.”
Gu Jiu sat in the back seat of the taxi as if he had no bones, with a smile on his face, looking at the second treasure in his arms, and then Then look at Lin Shu and her son with the evening breeze blowing.
The brand store opening bonus event is over and we are slowly getting back on track.
New styles from clothing factories are also constantly replenishing the inventory of clothing stores.
Lin Shu was free again.
After being busy for a while, I wanted to take a good rest at home for two days. As a result, the system that had not surfaced for a while began to urge me again.
There was no way, Lin Shu was forced to open his business.
Put on coarse clothes and ride to the mountains in the suburbs.
“Are you preparing to go into the mountains?”
Early in the morning, after breakfast, Gu Jiu frowned and asked when he saw Lin Shu's outfit.
"Shan Liuzi hasn't been to the mountains for a long time. It's time to go to the mountains after a few days of free time." Lin Shu went out and found the tools for going up the mountain in front of the stairs.
Gu Jiu looked down at his clothes and asked, "How about I go change my clothes and accompany you up the mountain?"
Lin Shu waved her hands hurriedly: "No, you Go and do your work."
Hearing her disgusted tone, Gu Jiu said nothing and turned around and ran to the bedroom upstairs.
Lin Shu heard footsteps walking away, glanced upstairs, quickly put away her things, went out and fled on her bicycle.
Liu Xiao'e had just finished feeding her eldest child and her second child with solid food when she saw Gu Jiu running upstairs. Not long after, he changed into a set of work clothes and ran down again. She asked doubtfully: "Where are you going? The construction site or the Factory?"
Gu Jiu was afraid that the two children would follow him out, so he replied without looking back: "Shu Shu and I will go up the mountain for a walk."
Just wait for him to run away. Floor, there is no figure of Lin Shu in the stairwell.
I ran outside and saw that the bicycle parked in the shed had already been ridden away.
"Brother-in-law, where are you going dressed like this?"
Noodle shop, Lin Guang brought out two bowls of noodles for customers, and saw Gu Jiu standing in front of the carport, walking left and right.
Gu Jiu bit his lip and waved his hand to his second uncle, "I'm fine. I'll go to the factory later."
Lin Guang didn't think much and asked with a smile: "You Have you had breakfast? Do you want a bowl of noodles? "
"Second brother, I'm going to eat while you're busy," Gu Jiu pushed his bicycle out, preparing to catch him on the road.
Lin Shu ran out of home and saw a stall selling steamed buns on the roadside, so she bought a few steamed buns as dry food.
[System, has he caught up? 】
【.No target was found thirty meters behind. 】
【Huh, it’s a good thing I didn’t follow, otherwise the man would only affect the speed of my receiving the goods. Since you didn’t follow us, let’s start our journey today. 】
The weather in June, the morning wind is very cool.
When he entered the mountain this time, as soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, Lin Shu discovered that there were many tallow trees growing in the wasteland.
The Chinese tallow tree is also called the spicy tree, and the whole tree is poisonous.
It is a unique economic tree species in my country and has been artificially cultivated since ancient times.
The reason why it is called an economic tree species is because its leaves are a natural plant dye.
And its fruit, that is, tallow seeds, can be made into candles, soap and oil.
Nowadays, many production teams also plant it, and tallow seeds can be exchanged for money.
Lin Shu put the bicycle into the system and did not touch the tallow tree immediately. If you pay attention, you will find green caterpillars on the leaves of the tallow tree.
Goosebumps appeared all over Lin Shu's body.
[System, will you collect this tallow tree? 】
【Return to the host, you can collect tallow seeds in autumn. 】
[In other words, the tallow trees at this time are of little value? 】
The Chinese tallow tree could not be touched. Lin Shu took a sickle and started walking up the mountain.
But not long after climbing, I smelled the fragrance of honeysuckle in the air.
Honeysuckle is also called honeysuckle. I believe many people know it. The vine can be used to make soup, and the leaves and flowers can be dried to make tea. In summer, many people will prepare some for making tea.
Honeysuckle likes to grow in patches. Lin Shu followed the scent of the flowers and found a large patch growing on a slope. If she had to pick it all slowly with one hand, she might not be able to pick it all up all morning long. Finished picking.
Fortunately, the system has a media collection function. As long as you touch a vine, the stems, leaves, flowers and roots connected to it, as long as they have medicinal value, can be collected into the system.
Accidentally discovered a wild peach tree.
[System, will the peach trees be harvested? 】
【You can collect peach gum from peach trees, and you can also collect peach wood that has been aged for five years. Peach wood has the effect of warding off evil spirits and eliminating demons in Taoism.】
【. Damn, you Don't tell me you still understand metaphysics? Come on, come on, read a few sentences to me, such as "hurry is like a law"? 】
[Please invite the Taomu Sword Immortal God to come down to patrol the world. I obey the order of the ancestor of Feijian.】
Suddenly the system changed the sound, and a sense of atmosphere was created like a Taoist priest.
Lin Shu was frightened to death!
Lin Shu quickly stopped him.
【Stop, stop, stop, it feels eerie when there is no one in the mountain, but if you talk about it like this again, I am afraid that the evil spirit in the mountain will really be forced out! 】
The system tone changed again, [Yes, host, someone is coming down from the mountain. 】
Lin Shu found a relatively high stone and stood on it. Looking down the mountain, he actually saw three people coming this way.
[What are these three people doing in the mountains? The two people behind are pushing the person in front. Seeing that the person in front is stumbling, is his hands tied behind his back? 】
