Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 269

Xu Congwen is not at home at the moment, that's for sure, the old man should be working at the unit at this time.

Originally, Gu Siwei's plan was to come for a cutscene or something, but he didn't expect Xu Congwen's wife, Xu Guangying, Mrs. Xu to be at home.When Gu Siwei first entered the door, the old lady was drinking tea and flipping through books in the yard.

"The four-dimensional is here?"

Seeing Gu Siwei and his wife coming in, Xu Guangying hurriedly got up to say hello.

For Gu Siwei, Xu Guangying did not treat Gu Siwei as a junior, but as an acquaintance of the same generation, so seeing Gu Siwei and his wife entered the door, Xu Guangying stood up, and did not sit in his original seat in an even manner .

"Why did you bring something?" Xu Guangying said politely with a smile.

Every time Gu Siwei came here, he brought things with him. Fortunately, they were raised by himself or picked from the mountains. They were not bought gifts, otherwise Xu Guangying and his wife would not accept them.

"Today is the matchmaker, so these things should be given away." Gu Siwei is not polite, everyone is old friends, and it will be tiring to make some twists and turns.

After hearing this, Hu Yanqiu complained to Gu Siwei: "You!"

"May……".

Hu Yanqiu didn't know how to call it anymore.

I don't know whether to call her Aunt Xu or Grandma Xu. If she follows his father, she must be called grandma, but it seems that she can be called sister if she follows Gu Siwei. Of course, sister is inappropriate.

Seeing this, Xu Guangying smiled and said, "You can call me Mr. Xu, who is not confused when it comes to this calculation."

"Teacher Xu!" Hu Yanqiu called out with a smile.

Let the young couple sit down, Xu Guangying said to Xu Weiwei: "Weiwei, go and call people back, just say that the Siwei couple is here."

"Don't bother, anyway, I'm just here for a face-to-face, and I'll tell him to get angry at this time," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

For the people of this era, Gu Siwei feels that there is a serious division of perception between the two extremes. The bad ones are the bad ones with sores on their heads.

Gu Siwei will deal with the first type, and he will definitely be ruthless, but he respects the second type. Even if it is his apprentice Qiao Yitong, Gu Siwei actually admires it from the bottom of his heart.

"It's okay, he told me about it, and said that when you came to thank the media, you must call him back." Xu Guangying laughed at this point.

Hu Yanqiu asked curiously: "Xu... Teacher knows we will come at this time?"

Xu Guangying laughed and said: "He said, when Siwei is thanking the matchmaker, he will sneak over. It's best not to meet me face to face, lest I show off in front of him!"

What Gu Siwei said was a little embarrassing, just a little, it's quite enough for Lao Gu to be so thick-skinned.

"Ms. Xu really understands you," Hu Yanqiu said happily to Gu Siwei, covering his mouth.

"I'm a simple person, so it's easy to guess!" Gu Siwei said with a shy old face.

Gu Siwei knew that if the old man Xu wanted to keep his own, it was most likely because he was greedy for his craft, and he didn't blame the old man. He hadn't gotten together to drink and fart for more than a month.

Hahaha!
Xu Weiwei, who was just about to go out, couldn't bear it when he heard Gu Siwei's words. He laughed and pushed the bicycle out of the yard, put one foot on the pedal, and stepped on the bicycle with two steps, like a silver bell The laughter still spilled into the yard.

Gu Siwei is still not embarrassed.

At this point, Xu Guangying and Hu Yanqiu couldn't be more happy.

While chatting, we talked about the things at home. Most of the chickens and ducks in Gu Siwei's house were obtained from Xu Congwen's house. This thing is a topic every time.

"Has the duck laid eggs?" Xu Guangying asked.

Hu Yanqiu replied: "The big duck has given birth, but the little duck hasn't matured yet. Now it can't lay a few duck eggs a day. I keep a lot of duck eggs, and I will hatch another batch when I save enough!"

"Where's the goose?" Xu Guangying asked again.

Hearing this, Hu Yanqiu glanced at Gu Siwei, smiled and pouted at Gu Siwei: "You have to ask him, I don't know what's going on with this guy, he likes eating potatoes and goose so much, if Si Cui didn't stop him It is estimated that only half of the geese can be left."

"If you like, take a few back this time," Xu Guangying said generously.

Hu Yanqiu hastily declined: "No, I really have them at home."

Gu Siwei didn't say anything, it wasn't that he wanted it, but that he felt that it didn't matter whether he took it or not.

"You really have to take it," Xu Guangying said.

As soon as Hu Yanqiu heard that there was something in his words, Gu Siwei naturally heard it too. After the two looked at each other, Hu Yanqiu asked, "Why, what happened?"

"I heard that someone will be sent over soon..." Xu Guangying said.

"No way? Is the wind coming to the factory here?" Hu Yanqiu said in shock.

Now the factory is like a safe haven, protecting everyone in their arms and not being impacted by the outside, but if the wind blows to the factory, it will be a big trouble.

"I just heard, but I'm afraid it's not groundless." Xu Guangying was very worried.

Xu Congwen walked back at this time, and when he entered the yard, he heard what his daughter-in-law said was groundless, so he asked curiously, "What groundless?"

When Gu Siwei and Hu Yanqiu saw him coming back, they immediately stood up. They were usually fine. At this time, they came to thank the matchmaker. How could the matchmaker just sit there in a daze? up.

"Sit down, it's rare that you are so disciplined today and know how to stand up."

Xu Congwen spoiled Gu Siwei's sentence.

Xu Guangying said: "The wind with Siwei and the others may blow into the factory."

"It's going to rain, my mother wants to marry someone, let him go!" Xu Congwen laughed and said, "No matter who comes, we must let the factory continue."

For the operation of the factory, Xu Congwen is absolutely confident. No matter how bad the others are, it is impossible for the factory here to stop production, even for a day.

"I said to take the geese at home and let Siwei bring some back this time. We can't eat them here either," Xu Guangying said.

Gu Siwei didn't say that if you can't eat it, you can give it to your neighbors. There must be a reason for Xu Guangying's reluctance to give it away. Sometimes things between intellectuals are much more complicated and narrow-minded than folks.

Xu Congwen nodded after hearing this and said: "That's okay, I'll pack a few for you when you leave. It's a bit too much. We don't care too much here. The wild eggs will bring back the goslings after a while. We raise them here. Some are okay, but if the number is a little more, it will be eye-catching."

"That's fine, I'll take some back." Gu Siwei didn't know how to write the word polite, and when people said he nodded, Hu Yanqiu felt his face burn a little.

Seeing this, Xu Guangying smiled and said, "Yanqiu, you don't know how they get along with each other. Our two families don't need to be so polite. It's fine to say something."

"I see," Hu Yanqiu responded with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Xu Congwen asked Gu Siwei, "What are you still doing sitting?"

Well?
After hearing this, Gu Siwei looked at the question marks on Xu Congwen's face.

Xu Congwen said: "Get ready to cook, do you need me to remind you? Do more, Zhu Shiming and the others will come to eat at noon, remember to have roast goose."

"...!"

A black line appeared on Gu Siwei's forehead: "I just said that I eat a lot of geese, why did you hit the muzzle of the gun?"

Xu Congwen said: "If you say you eat as much as you eat, you'll blush if you're a big man struggling with this matter. Oh, by the way, how is your vegetable growing? When will it be marinated? Wait a minute." Well, I'm still waiting to eat the pickled fish you made, it was really delicious when I ate it last time."

"Then just wait, the vegetables haven't been cut yet, and it will take at least a month or two to wait until you can make pickled fish," Gu Siwei said.

It was a coincidence that I made pickled fish last time. When Gu Siwei was shopping on the street, he met an aunt from central Sichuan who was carrying a jar of sauerkraut in his hand. Gu Siwei directly took the money and threw the aunt away.

This pot of pickled fish directly made the two old men feel good.

At that time, summer had not yet arrived. By this time, summer was over, and the old dishes had long since disappeared, and the new dishes hadn’t come out yet, so there was no sauerkraut.

"Marinate more, I think it's quite simple, and you can make it at home when you want to eat it," Xu Congwen said.

Gu Siwei nodded and said: "I see, this matter has been said many times, there are quite a lot of things to pickle at home this year."

Originally, I wanted to respond to a scene, but Gu Siwei did some calculations. There are quite a lot of vegetables to be pickled this year, and there are as many as four or five varieties. Pickled vegetables must be there, and dried radishes can’t escape. The rest are Sichuan-style sauerkraut, local sauerkraut, and kohlrabi. As for pickled chicken and duck, they will definitely not escape.

At this time, the traffic is not developed, and the winter is long, and the poultry are not slaughtered when they are pasted with autumn fat. Not enough to eat yet.

Of course, Gu Siwei will feed, but he can't understand it blatantly, so the things that should be pickled will still be pickled, even if it's a sloppy eye, he has to make a fuss.

"I'll just go and help when the time comes," Xu Guangying said with a smile.

"Isn't it to toss people back and forth this time?" Gu Siwei waved his hands again and again.

While talking, Gu Siwei has already started preparing lunch, and Gu Siwei is also familiar with the kitchen of Xu Congwen's house, and he is more familiar with where the things are placed.

As for cooking and so on, it was naturally handed over to Xu Guangying, and Gu Siwei just cooked.

According to Xu Congwen's request, Gu Siwei killed a chicken, made a more authentic fried chicken, then made a braised fish, and then some home-cooked things, such as leek eggs, shredded pork with green peppers and so on.

When it was noon, there was a small table for drinking, and another small table for non-drinking. The two tables had the same dishes. The small wine was drunk until more than two o'clock in the afternoon.

When Gu Siwei and his wife returned home, they found that the atmosphere in the house was a bit uncomfortable, because everyone in the family was silent.

Hu Yanming came back early today, but judging from the atmosphere, it must be that this kid made trouble again.
