Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 206

Liu Fulin let out a long sigh, and after a while, he said slowly: "I'm just worthless, and I can't hold on to anything left at home now! Sigh!"

What this said, not only Gu Siwei and Hu Yanqiu, but also Sicui was stunned.

Gu Siwei was about to stand up, but Sicui was very clever, and quickly ran into the house, took a bamboo chair, put it behind Liu Fulin, and motioned for the old man to sit down and speak slowly.

Liu Fulin sat down, thought for a while and said: "I asked Shengshui to inquire about it recently, and someone is very interested in a few gadgets in my house. I have saved up over the years, and maybe I have to ask Siwei to borrow some, and I can almost buy these few things.”

"Uncle, what do you want these things for?" Gu Siwei felt that this matter was a bit thoughtless.

Liu Fulin said: "What else could it be? This kid Dezhu has his eyes on that girl. I said that I can't change it to someone else, but the other side insisted that if you want to marry his daughter, you have to pay this price! "

"Why do you want such a thing?"

Hu Yanqiu was also a little surprised. At this time, marriage is indeed quite advanced, but it is not a hard condition. If this thing becomes popular, then most of the young people will not be able to get married. In her opinion The most important thing about coming to get married is congenial personality.

Hu Yanqiu thought so in his heart, but if Gu Siwei knew about it, he might say to her: If you haven't been there for decades, whoever will marry you if you don't have a house!

A bitter look appeared on Liu Fulin's face again: "What they said is true. They said that if a girl marries to a good family outside, he would be willing to give some money, but if she marries to our Shimo Village, she must be this girl. price, otherwise no negotiation!"

Gu Siwei knows that this is actually what people say. If he is really able to post money, he will be a ghost. Not to mention other things, his family is thinking of changing relatives, and they still say this, but they are just talking to Liu Fulin. Go to the mouth of the matchmaker.

"What is there in your house that can be sold for money?"

Gu Siwei was a little curious, and after opening his mouth to ask, he said, "If it's inconvenient, just pretend I didn't ask."

Liu Fulin smiled wryly and said, "I'm going to give it to someone else soon. Is it convenient or not? A few bottles and cans, one Ming, and two from the Kang-Yong period."

"antique?!"

Gu Siwei blurted out, not knowing how to say it. When he thought of the word antique, Gu Siwei couldn't help jumping out of the old man Tao who was the gatekeeper of Wu Daorong's unit.

The last time I saw Old Man Tao and Zhao Minglan together on the street, it was Antique.

It is rare to collect antiques at this time. Many antiques nowadays are regarded as four old by some people and are broken. If you dare to hide them at home, you may be discovered one day and you will cause disaster.

Gu Siwei really didn't expect Liu Fulin's family to have these things, but think about it, it's not uncommon for the old man to do business outside before liberation, and it's not uncommon to get one or two.

"How can anyone still like this thing now, and they are not in a hurry to hide when they come across it, and I don't want it here, but the things left by my ancestors can't just be lost in my hands like this?" Liu Fulin said.

Hu Yanqiu asked: "Then you are willing to sell it to others?"

Hu Yanqiu doesn't care much about antiques. Her thinking is from this era, and she has almost no awareness of the value of antiques. Even if she encounters them, she may have to drop or throw them away for fear of trouble. One thing may be enough for a generation to eat and drink.

Liu Fulin said: "What can I do if I don't sell it? If Dezhu can't get a wife, our old Liu family and my line will be extinct. Keeping the things of our ancestors will not be cheaper for others? Instead of doing this, it's better to have a daughter-in-law." What belonged to our ancestors, and the roots of our family! This account is worthwhile.”

Hu Yanqiu and Sicui listened and nodded secretly.

Gu Siwei is relatively indifferent to this matter. In his age, there is not much soil for family inheritance, especially among young people in the city. It is quite normal for some people to choose not to have children because of the pressure of life.

I wanted to open my mouth to say something, but after thinking about it, I closed my mouth. There is no reason for this. It is a choice for people to value their children and grandchildren. Gu Siwei has no reason to interfere with their thoughts.

There is no reason to be a moral model, and use a ruler called morality to measure everywhere.

"Who are you looking for?" Gu Siwei asked.

Liu Fulin said: "Shengshui is looking for it. It's hard to find people who want this thing now. I asked him for a long time before I heard that one person wants it, but the price is not high, but I add the money I saved here." Once you get it together, I will ask you to turn it around again, and Fangqiang can get a few tickets in the market.

I was a little reconciled, and wanted to come here and ask Yanqiu if there was any way. After all, the money was a lot and our family’s conditions were like this. I thought that Yanqiu could help, but I would rather pay the market price. Come".

Hu Yanqiu's face was really bitter and bitter when he heard this: "Uncle Fulin, I really don't have such skills. I'm just a salesperson. I can help you with a few handfuls of candies if you want them, but what you want? Things, to be honest, my family didn’t have all the things, and the radio ticket has never been obtained, and even if I got it, it would be troublesome. I got the radio in the county town, and I heard that there are no goods in the store in the county town, so maybe I have to go to the provincial capital.”

Gu Siwei was a little confused, and thought to himself: I have to go to the provincial capital with a broken radio?
You must know that going to the provincial capital at this time is not the same as at that time. Let’s talk about the time it takes. The road of about 300 kilometers will take two hours in a few decades, but now the car, the car has to walk all day. The first is that the road is not good, and the second is that the car is slow. In short, you didn't expect it for a long time?That is a completely impossible task.

"It's okay, kid. I'm also in a hurry to go to the doctor. There's nothing you can do here. I'll just follow the original path." Seeing that Hu Yanqiu was a little anxious, Liu Fulin said hastily.

It is true that the old man went to the doctor in a hurry. If Liu Dezhu hadn't been so stubborn, the old man would probably have put these things to death, and he would take them out to his grandson when he died, and told him to pass them on to the next generation. .

Now it seems that it won't work, if this thing doesn't go out, his great-grandson may be gone, after careful consideration, the old man decided to sell what he had in hand, and return with a great-grandson, a fresh little life.

As for Liu Dezhu's nod at the age of sixteen, the old man didn't think about it at all, all the younger ones in the countryside are married, and his stupid grandson is already this age, not young!

"Uncle, can I have a look?" Gu Siwei asked.

Liu Fulin didn't hesitate at all, and opened his mouth and said: "Of course, but it's a little late today, not because I don't want to, but because I can't see clearly at night, wait until tomorrow morning, and I will show you when you go to my house tomorrow morning." , are all good things, but it’s a pity that they’re not worth much in this world.”

Gu Siwei smiled.

Just like that, everyone chatted for a while, and then Liu Fulin got up to leave. Gu Siwei wanted him to stay for dinner, and the old man waved his hand.

Watching the old man leave, Hu Yanqiu said: "Poor parents in the world".

"Don't worry!" Gu Siwei said, and then immediately followed up: "I said De Zhu, kid! Are you stubborn?"

This remark made Hu Yanqiu a little unhappy, and he opened his mouth and said: "I think Dezhu is pretty good. When he likes him, he just thinks about it, unlike some people who don't know what to think about. They are messy and have no shape at all. ".

Gu Siwei: "...".

I feel that this woman is referring to Sang and scolding Huai, as if she is talking about herself, but many points are obviously different from her, at least she has not thought about any messy things all day long.

"Eat, eat!"

Gu Siwei had no choice but to end this topic, and continued to talk about the same thing with a resentful woman. Gu Siwei had no confidence in himself, and he didn't feel that he was stubborn, let alone this woman herself was a little cautious.

Therefore, 36 counts are the best!
Sure enough, later when Hu Yanqiu put vegetables in Gu Siwei's bowl, he unconsciously used too much energy, as if he wanted to poke Gu Siwei's bowl.

Gu Siwei felt strange, and thought to himself: No, this little girl is not feeling well these days, so come on, why is she in a bad mood all of a sudden!
After eating, Gu Siwei put the bowl on the table, and it sloshed with greasy mud.

By the time they came back, Sicui had already gone into the room to sleep, but Hu Yanqiu hadn't slept at all, and curled up on the bamboo recliner by himself, wrapped in a quilt and huddled into a ball, not knowing what he was thinking.

"came back?"

Hearing Gu Siwei's footsteps, Hu Yanqiu straightened up and looked in the direction Gu Siwei came from.

"Well, I'm back".

Gu Siwei sat directly on the recliner where Sicui was lying on just now.

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

"I can't sleep, my mind is very messy, obviously a little sleepy, but I just can't sleep," Hu Yanqiu said.

Gu Siwei thought for a while, then naturally stretched out his hand towards her forehead.

Hu Yanqiu was stunned, she didn't expect that Gu Siwei would suddenly reach out her hand, and her body was stunned when Gu Siwei's hand stroked her forehead.

"what are you doing!?"

"Don't move, be honest!"

Gu Siwei tried Hu Yanqiu's head, then tried it on his own forehead, frowned, and said in a low voice: "It seems to have a fever!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch Hu Yanqiu's forehead. At this time, one hand was on his own forehead, and the other hand was on Hu Yanqiu's forehead.

The palm of Hu Yanqiu's forehead seemed to be a little hot, but he was not so sure.

Gu Siwei is really unprofessional in doing this, because he seldom gets sick since he was a child, and he is not proficient in using this hand.

"Why do you have a good fever?" Hu Yanqiu murmured.

Gu Siwei directly put his head in the past.

Now Hu Yanqiu was directly petrified.

He wanted to shout, but when Gu Siwei's face approached, Hu Yanqiu only felt his heart beating like a drum, and he couldn't spit out half a word.

The two foreheads came together.

Now Gu Siwei was sure that Hu Yanqiu really had a fever, and his forehead was a little hot, at least hotter than his forehead.

"You really have a fever! Go into the house and lie down, come into my room, don't infect Si Cui, wait until I come back from picking some herbs, if you don't return at night, I will carry you to the factory hospital."

After talking about Gu Siwei, he went to the mountains to collect herbs.

After living here for so long, Gu Siwei still knows a few simple folk recipes, not to mention treating fever, he knows it well, because the women in the village often use it, as long as there are children at home, there is no such prescription. of.
