Chapter 217
As for the big dishes, Gu Wenheng really brought a big table full, chicken, duck, fish, everything you need, and they all use big plates, a few big plates can fill the whole table.

After drinking for three rounds, Gu Wenheng raised his glass and said to his elder brothers, "Ever since I settled in Gaoling Village, my father and mother have been troublesome to my elder brothers..."

A lengthy confession of gratitude made the brothers of the Gu family feel that the brothers had never been united before, and that respect between brothers and friends was no longer a topic in other families.

Gu Wenheng saw that the faces of his elder brothers were all moved, so he changed the tone of the conversation, and cried to his elder brothers about his difficulty. The noble son of a farmer is not as beautiful as everyone saw.

He began to keep talking about how his head was hanging from the beam and his buttocks, and how much hard work Jin Qianqian had put in for this family.

"There will be no pies in the sky, and your little brother and I have also worked hard step by step.

Yes, I am looking at the scenery now, but the burden on me is not small. Poor people like us really want to come out, and we have to put in a lot more effort than others.

I have said so much here today, just to let a few brothers know what it means to be prosperous when one is prosperous, and if one is damaged, all will be lost.

No matter how big the gap is between our brothers in the future, after all, blood is thicker than water, brothers of the same mother..."

The rise and fall of several families are illustrated with examples, "Are the brothers willing to let their children be beaten into the field in the face of a little disaster like our parents in the future?

Or do we want our children and grandchildren to be like us in the future, opening their eyes to the few acres of land in the field, worrying about daily necessities? "

"But the children in the family are not up to date, they don't have your kind of brains at all," Gu Yuanjin felt a little frustrated when he thought about what happened at home during this period.

"So what? You can't point to your son, but you can't point to your grandson?" Gu Wenheng suddenly patted the table, waking up a few people who fell into Gu Yuan's golden pit.

"..."

"Lao Qi, my brothers all know what you mean. I will definitely teach the children in the family well in the future, so that they will honor the ancestors of our Gu family in the future." Gu Yuanjin felt that he had grasped the meaning of Gu Wenheng's words, " If they don't live up to their expectations, I will force them to plant a lifetime of land at home."

Gu Wenheng sighed, "Brother, you may have misunderstood me. I just want to make the children in our family feel better. Even if they can't take the imperial examination, they should learn some skills to accompany them."

"When you touch your upper and lower lips, you speak lightly," Gu Yuanhuo took another sip of wine, "If you hadn't met an old scholar, you would be very different from our brothers now.

The heads of your older brothers can't count against you, so just speak up if you have anything to say. "

Gu Wenheng took a look at the third brother who was not the most irritable in the family. Although he spoke straight, his heart was like a mirror.

"It's not that your sister-in-law remembered that her natal family gave her another secret recipe, and she really accidentally made it." Gu Wenheng knew that this matter was covered up, so he might as well reveal it himself.

"Then you are really lucky, to marry a lady whose family is full of secret recipes." Gu Yuanshui also swallowed the wine in his glass in one gulp, but he tasted the sourness and bitterness from it. He chewed a piece of meat fiercely, but still Couldn't dilute the bitterness in my mouth.

The gap between brothers is already here, and it is estimated that it will be even further in the future.

"Just yesterday, I bought a piece of land in our county town, planning to build a house and workshop there, and now the family is in need of employing people, so let's see if my brothers have any ideas.

Of course, some ugly words have to be put first. What I really need there are some ordinary coolies, that is, some hard money. "

Relying on the few acres of land at home, it is difficult to earn silver taels at all. Besides, the county is so big that there are not many part-time workers who really need it, and some skilled workers have long been watching.

In the future, the core of the workshop will be controlled by Jin Qianqian and the slaves who have sold themselves.

Since they have to recruit people from outside to help in the future, Gu Wenheng and Jin Qianqian also discussed yesterday that these clansmen in Gaoling Village must be the first to take care of them.

"Is this true?" Gu Yuanjin's eyes lit up immediately. The spring plowing at home had just come to an end. If he could do part-time work at this time, even if he moved stones, he would still have an income.

"Of course it's true, but it's all physical work." Seeing the joyful expressions of his brothers, Gu Wenheng could understand their thoughts now.

Ever since we moved to Gaoling Village, and immediately entered the long winter and spring plowing, everyone could only go in and out, so we should have been panicked.

"Seventh brother, don't worry, we all have strength, we will definitely not let you suffer." Gu Yuanshui held a cup and touched Gu Wenheng lightly, "Thank you, fourth brother."

Gu Yuantu hesitated, "But we all come out to do things, what will Dad do?"

"Fifth," Gu Yuanhuo, who was sitting next to him, hooked his shoulders, "Believe it or not? If we all leave, can our good father lie down with peace of mind?"

Gu Yuanhuo's heart also started to burn when he thought of eating, drinking, and lying on the kang before, "I really don't understand what he is thinking. I wonder if he fell from the carriage and smashed his head."

Gu Wenheng, "All of us brothers have seen with our own eyes that Dad can still run, so there is no need to pretend from now on, don't worry!"

Gu Yuanjin gently pulled Gu Wenheng, "Your two nephews don't have much to do at home, can you let them do things together?"

It doesn't matter to Gu Wenheng, "Of course it's possible, but you have to make it clear to them first, brother, then everyone will work in the same way, pay the same wages, and treat them the same."

"That's what it should be. If those two brats dare to be lazy, I don't need you to tell me, I will drive them back."

As for the children of the other brothers, none of them had grown up yet, so naturally they didn't have the face to make such a request.

After Gu Wenheng's sincere narration by the brothers, and helping them find a way out, the grudges that existed in their hearts also subsided.

And Gu Dashi, who was lying on the bed, woke up after a nap, and found that the whole room was dark, and even Gu Yuanjin, who was supposed to accompany him to rest, was not in the room.

"Boss, boss?" Gu Dashi called a few words, but got no response, "It's so late, where can this kid go?"

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the door was pushed open from the outside, followed by the smell of alcohol.

"Boss?" Gu Dashi's skin was numb, didn't the drunkard go to the wrong room?

"Father, why haven't you slept yet?" Gu Yuanjin hiccupped, "Go to bed early, you have to go back tomorrow morning."
