Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 264 The feeling of home
"You guys go, I'll clean the bowl."

After everyone finished eating, Hu Yanqiu started to clean up the dishes.

Gu Siwei glanced at the two old men, and found that the two put away their bowls directly, without letting Hu Yanqiu reach for them, and didn't say anything.

How could Yu and Li not have such a boundary? Even if they didn't before, they have been educated these days, so after the two of them washed the dishes and took them into the house, they went outside to wait for Gu four-dimensional.

Gu Siwei took tools, which were very simple things, two iron sticks with flat ends, about thirty or forty centimeters long.

After coming out, give each of them two iron rods.

Just like that, Gu Siwei took the two of them up the slope, and after walking for about 5 minutes, they saw a pile of wood, a large pile of wood.

"All of these are going to be stripped?"

Seeing this pile of wood, old man Li was taken aback, because the amount of this pile of wood is quite a lot, let alone building one house, even ten houses are almost enough.

Gu Siwei said: "What do you do with the whole thing, and you can't use it, just pick up the good ones, don't be too rough."

As he spoke, he came to the side of the wood, picked one, took out a chalk from his pocket, drew a mark on it, and said to the two of them.

"Just cut it according to this thickness." Gu Siwei pointed at the wood, maybe because he felt that the finger was not enough, he even kicked it.

Old man Yu opened his mouth and asked, "How many roots do you want to peel?"

Old man Yu was asking about today's workload, and he had to ask carefully. In the past, it was because of his experience that he suffered a lot in this area. Some young people are really bad, much worse than the enemies in the army.

Although Lao Yu thinks that Gu Siwei looks good now, but he has experienced many things, and he will not trust people so easily.

"You just pick it up slowly." Gu Siwei didn't think about it either. He mainly wanted to find something for the two old men to do. In fact, it didn't matter whether he peeled the bark or not.

And the bark is also easy to peel, these materials have been placed in his space for a long time, the bark and the trunk have long been separated, just use an iron rod to pull it off.

"Is it bad if there is no measurement standard?"

Old man Yu has a lot of eyes, or how can the intellectuals who have studied abroad have a lot of eyes.

Gu Siwei didn't think too much, and he didn't need to think too much. The two old men came out to peel the bark during the day, went back to eat at meal time, and slept honestly at night, then the world would be balanced.

"Five, five per person," Gu Siwei said.

After speaking, I felt that the workload might be a bit small, so I said again: "Send the peeled bark back and keep it for fire."

There are not many logs in the five branches. Of course, some branches need to be cleaned up. In short, ordinary people can definitely do it all in one day.

After saying this, Gu Siwei left the two old men here, and walked back with small steps humming a little song with his hands behind his back.

Back in the house, Hu Yanqiu was watching Sicui write, not tutoring, but watching Sicui learn, and she herself followed, learning what she didn't know.

Si Cui was studying mathematics at this time, not very simple mathematics, but equations, such as multivariate and several times equations, were also new things to Hu Yanqiu.

Although she has gone to school, the gap between what she is learning now and Gu Siwei, a high-level student decades later, is like the gap between a junior high school graduate and a doctoral student.

First of all, the current teaching force is not enough, unlike decades later, as long as you want to learn, you can find courses from the world's top universities and top professors online.

Otherwise, after getting here, Gu Siwei has become a high-end talent, just a crush of knowledge and quantity.

As for why Gu Siwei didn't forget, because he has been using this knowledge.

"Come back? Both of them have their work arranged?
Seeing that Gu Siwei had returned, Hu Yanqiu asked with a smile.

"Well, the arrangement is over." Gu Siwei nodded.

Hu Yanqiu continued: "You two are old, you have to pay attention when arranging work, don't let them be too busy. People of such an age often have some diseases, so don't let us have problems when the time comes. alright".

"I know, don't worry, if the work of peeling the bark is really tiring, then they shouldn't come here."

Seeing what Hu Yanqiu wanted to say, Gu Siwei continued: "I know, but it's okay if I don't arrange some work for them. What does it look like to swim around in front of our eyes all day?"

Hu Yanqiu laughed and said, "You are only allowed to swim around, others are not allowed?"

"Yes, I am the head of the family now, I have the final say," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Hu Yanqiu looked at Gu Siwei, smiled and said a hooligan.

Gu Siwei listened too much, didn't say anything anymore, turned around and went into the next hut.

"Take out your clothes, I washed them for you, you smell of sweat all day long."

Seeing that Gu Siwei was leaving, Hu Yanqiu immediately remembered that he said he was going to do laundry.Just now in the room, she smelled the smell of the clothes that Gu Siwei took off yesterday, so she thought about washing them.

Gu Siwei stopped and thought for a while: "All the clothes I wore are in the basket at the door."

According to the previous living habits, the clothes that Gu Siwei wore were all put in the basket, so that when the basket was collected, they would be thrown into the washing machine together.

Although there is no washing machine now, this habit is still retained, but it is impossible to save a basket, there is no way, who has so many clothes, no matter how rich Gu Siwei is, he can’t buy a blue coat About ten pieces.

So generally speaking, Gu Siwei will wash his clothes once every two or three days. Of course, sometimes Si Cui will also wash his clothes. How to wash them is to hammer them by the river with a wooden stick. Yes, the folks are not willing to part with it, they all use natural saponins.

Gu Siwei has never used this thing before, but now Gu Siwei still likes it, because at least it can decontaminate, and the best thing is that it is pure natural.

"Take off the one on your body too, and look at the sweat stains on the back, you don't think it's dirty."

Hu Yanqiu saw Gu Siwei's gown on at a glance, and the back of his neck was already soaked with sweat.

"How is it possible, this is a new one this morning."

Gu Siwei couldn't believe it.

Hu Yanqiu grabbed Gu Siwei by his collar and took a look.

Gu Siwei really saw the sweat stains on the clothes, thought for a while and laughed: "Oh, I wore it wrong in the morning."

As he spoke, Gu Siwei took off his gown, revealing his muscular upper body.

Although the two are already husband and wife, Hu Yanqiu was still not used to seeing Gu Siwei's shirtless arms in broad daylight. He lowered his head slightly, but quickly raised it again.

"Hurry up, go in and put on your clothes!"

Hu Yanqiu said.

Gu Siwei went into the room with a smile, looked for it, and found the clothes he should have changed into in the basket to be washed, so he muttered: This matter was not done well.

After changing clothes and coming out, he went into the hut next to him, took some things and came out.

Hu Yanqiu had already put on an apron, and sat under the camphor tree with a wooden basin, as if he was about to do laundry.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Gu Siwei carrying two cages in his hands, he asked.

Hu Yanqiu recognized what Gu Siwei was holding. This thing was for catching fish, not big fish, but small fish or eels.

The cage was woven by Wei Miezi with rough handwork. One could tell at a glance that it was not made by an expert weaver, that is, Zheng Youcai. Even Liu Dezhu's craftsmanship was better than this cage.

It must not have been compiled by Gu Siwei, because the level of Gu Siwei's compilation is really bad. Some people are just surprised.

"Go catch some small fish"

Gu Siwei said.

After hearing this, Hu Yanqiu asked curiously: "Why do you always have trouble with fish today? You eat fish in the morning, but don't you still eat fish at noon?"

"You think you can catch anything you want, but you must not eat it at noon today. There are too many things you can eat at noon today, so don't eat fish," Gu Siwei said.

Gu Siwei didn't say, I'm going to catch small fish for you to make dried salted fish, he wants to do it secretly, and then give his wife a little surprise.

Hu Yanqiu really didn't expect that Gu Siwei would take it seriously when he mentioned it casually.

"Okay, let's go, be careful." Hu Yanqiu reminded Gu Siwei.

Si Cui felt a little strange, and opened her mouth to ask: "Sister-in-law, my brother has always been safe, is there anything in the mountains that can hurt him?"

Sicui felt that Hu Yanqiu did not know his brother's real ability by giving instructions, so he reminded her specially.

Hu Yanqiu was amused by Sicui, looked at the two brothers and sisters and said: "You two are really brothers and sisters".

Si Cui was amused by these words.

Gu Siwei did say something inexplicable, and walked towards the cliff mouth with the cage.

Although the words are a bit silly, Gu Siwei still feels that this place really feels like home now.

Well, that's fine.

Arriving at the mouth of the cliff, I was about to go down, when suddenly I heard a voice from below.

"Hey, don't come down yet, I'll go up right away."

Gu Siwei turned his head and saw that Uncle Liu Fulin was coming, and he was almost climbing to the top of the cliff now.

Gu Siwei can only go up, and the old uncle can't be allowed to go down.

Waiting for Liu Fulin to come up, Gu Siwei asked: "Uncle Fulin, what's the matter?"

"I didn't come here to look for you, but to look for the two who came yesterday." Liu Fulin said with a smile.

When Gu Siwei heard that he was not looking for him, he got off the rope ladder directly.

"What are you going to do?"

Liu Fulin looked at Gu Siwei who was going down and asked casually.

"Catch fish and go".

After hearing this, Liu Fulin murmured: What's so delicious about fish?

At this time, the villagers have enough to eat fish. Think about the years of famine in the past few years, what did the villagers eat?Can you not get a headache when you see fish now?

"Oh, Siwei, I forgot to tell you that the logging camp to be built may be near our sixth group."

"I am! Is it true or not?"

Gu Siwei is really not calm now.

"I heard from others that the first place is Naitou Mountain over there, but it's not surprising. The mountains over there are flat and the trees grow well. It saves time and effort to cut down there...".

Nowadays, people's awareness of environmental protection is almost non-existent, so Liu Fulin speaks without any emotion.
