Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 405 Fruits
Gu Siwei returned to the workshop with the head of the bed.

The studio is a big house, built out of the dormitories of several old men. There are three rooms in total, all of which are large spaces. One is You Xugang's studio, one is Lu Yan's painting studio, and the other is a tool room. .

Now Gu Siwei returned to You Xugang's workshop with the head of the bed in his hand.

"What's wrong?" You Xu just asked curiously when he saw that Gu Siwei had brought his things back again.

Gu Siwei sighed: "My wife refused to let me, saying that I was used to sleeping in the original bed, so I wouldn't let me change it."

"If you don't let me change it, don't let me change it. The bed you are sleeping on now is very good. The log style is full of freedom and ease. Although this thing is complicated and the material is expensive, it is unnatural in the end. Yanqiu's The aesthetics have not gone astray, but your aesthetics have lost some value," You Xugang said.

Gu Siwei said: "I'm just a layman, forget it, if this is the case, then put it away."

After thinking about it, Gu Siwei felt that this set of furniture should not be placed here, and it is better to honestly put it in the port city. Thinking of the port city, Gu Siwei began to think about it, and now he has a lot of houses , but he feels a little dissatisfied with the current house.

Why are you dissatisfied? They are all old houses bought by other people. Although the construction is quite good, Gu Siwei always feels that his style preferences are not shown.

Rich people, it’s all about being clean all day long. When I had no money, I didn’t see Gu Siwei talking about style or hobbies. Now that I have two bad money in my pocket, all kinds of ideas come up.

While working, he wondered whether to get another piece of land and build a small building that he was satisfied with. After thinking about it, it was time for lunch.

You Xu just concentrated on his work, and Gu Siwei forgot the time when he was thinking about things, so neither of them noticed that it was time to eat.

"Brother, Grandpa You, you two have eaten, and you can do it after eating."

Standing at the door, Sicui saw the two still working, smiled and yelled at them.

Over the past few years, Sicui has already looked like a big girl, but she is not very tall, and now she is only a little bit taller than 1.6 meters.Of course, among today's women, Sicui's stature is not considered short.

But Gu Siwei was dissatisfied, and felt that his sister had to grow to about 1.7 meters five.

Si Cui is still not fat, and her height of 1.6 meters is only less than ninety catties, which makes Hu Yanqiu, a sister-in-law, a headache.

It's really not that Gu Siwei and his wife treated her harshly, but that Si Cui just doesn't grow fat, and Tao Yisheng prescribed a few prescriptions to eat it, but it didn't work.

As for western medicine, the doctor at the factory has long been defined by Gu Siwei as a quack doctor, so naturally there is nothing to do.

As for appearance, Sicui can only be said to be above average, more attractive, with a bit of the heroic spirit of Hu Yanqiu in his personality, and he is strict in everything he does.

Sicui now wears a hulan head, capable and refreshing, wearing a crimson gown and black pants, and a pair of lace-up sneakers on her feet.

You Xu just put down the things in his hands, and asked Sicui with a smile, "Have you eaten yet?"

"What time is it? Look at it. It's twelve o'clock. Why don't you have dinner?"

Sicui tapped the watch on her wrist, and said to You Xugang with a smile.

Why does Sicui have a watch? Isn’t that nonsense? It’s strange that Gu Siwei has a watch on Sicui’s wrist. Not only Sicui, but the old Gu’s family now has a watch. Why would a family that can live a living need so many watches?

You Xu just looked at the watch in his hand, and realized that it was really time to eat.

So the two put down their work and followed Sicui to the small dining hall for dinner.

Now Gu Siwei’s family has a special small dining room. The room used is a dormitory separated by the old men. This thing is used when the weather is very cold. When the weather turns warm, everyone eats with bowls. The dining room Not so important for the dining room.

Today is still a big pot of dishes, but with a different pattern, today is stewed fish, in addition to the fish, there are more than a dozen thick slices of pork belly in the pot, in addition to three pieces of tofu, vermicelli and Chinese cabbage set.

The heavy oil and red sauce is a home-cooked food. After decades, some people may complain about this kind of food, but if you can eat it like this now, and if you are full, you will have no face to complain about the bad food.

Gu Siwei, like everyone else, had a bowl of rice in his hand and a small bowl of vegetables in front of him, sitting on a long stool and eating slowly.

It was very quiet during the meal, even the six troublemakers of Gu Siwei's family were honestly eating at the moment, not daring to make any monsters.

Eating without talking and sleeping without talking, this is Hu Yanqiu's requirement for children, and it is also applicable to adults now.

Gu Siwei was full from a bowl of rice, so he washed his dishes, put them back in the kitchen, poured himself a pot of tea, sat under the camphor tree at the door, and slowly sipped the tea.

As the meal gradually increased, a group of old men sat beside Gu Siwei. Each of them had a small bamboo chair, and each of them held a big tea mug. They were either playing chess or chatting about mountains.

Gu Siwei did not join the team of playing chess and bragging. He hummed a little song while sipping tea, and then admired the flowering fruit trees around his field.

It was early spring, and most of the flowers, such as plum blossoms and pear blossoms, were in bloom. However, in the fruit forest of Gu Siwei's house, the most luxuriant and prosperous flowers were not these flowers, but cherry blossoms.

The cherry blossoms grown by Gu Siwei's family are not the usual white or pink, but a brighter lemon yellow, which is very gorgeous and conspicuous.

The flowers are very big, twice the size of ordinary cherry flowers, so from a distance, there are almost no green leaves on the trees in that cherry forest, and they are all clusters of lemon-yellow flowers, crowding the entire branch. You can't see the head, or even the trunk, all you see is a bright lime-yellow.

Zhou Guangxian was watching everyone playing cards. He turned his head and saw Gu Siwei staring at the cherry blossoms over there in a daze, and said, "Don't look, there must be a lot of cherries today. Look at the flowers blooming."

The mold peaches have already borne fruit. In fact, they have borne fruit two or three years ago. However, there are not many fruits. The tree is small, but as time goes by, the fruit trees are getting bigger and taller. Now It has grown to more than three meters high, and naturally more flowers bloom. With more flowers, more fruits will naturally be produced.

That's why Zhou Guangxian said that there must be a lot of cherries this year.

Before waiting for Gu Siwei to say anything, Lu Yan, who was playing Pac, threw out the cards in his hand first, and then said: "There are too many cherries, I think kiwis should be planted more, and there are just a few stalks now." , The fruits produced are not enough for monkeys to eat, I didn’t enjoy eating much last year.”

How could there be so little fruit in Gu Siwei's house, but when it came to the top products, there were definitely only two: one was cherries, and the other was kiwi.

There is no way, this is the resentment that Gu Siwei brought back from the previous era.

Others are like apples, peaches, etc., that is, they are bigger and sweeter, not too out of the ordinary.

But cherries and kiwis, there is absolutely nothing wrong with them. This is not only a big problem, but not only big, but also good taste, not to mention the appearance.

The normal size of the cherries produced by the cherry trees in Gu Siwei's family is slightly smaller than a table tennis ball, and almost as big as an ordinary apricot.

The whole body is purple-black, and there is a light layer of natural fruit wax on the peel. You can rub the fruit wax off easily with your fingers. It can reflect light and vaguely illuminate people's shadows.

The taste of the pulp is a different kind of sweetness, without any sourness, and there is a faint floral aroma in the sweetness. Gu Siwei doesn't know how to describe this aroma, it is quiet and peaceful.

The kiwi fruit is naturally large in size, with smooth skin and thin skin. When the skin is torn off after ripening, the inner pulp is golden yellow, close to the core part, and the pulp has rose-red stripes that radiate from the inside to the outside, and half of the kiwi fruit penetrates into the fruit. It disappeared without a trace, but there was no rose red inside, but emerald green, like an emerald emerald embedded in it.

The average fruit of Gu Siwei's kiwi fruit is about 170 grams, and the large fruit is about [-] grams.

The shape is slightly larger at both ends, and slightly closed in the middle, like an old pillow used in the country here, so it is called Pillow Peach.

Regarding the two kinds of fruits, there are also fans. Of course, there are more people like Gu Siwei, who almost likes fruits as long as they are.

"Then plant two more this year," Gu Siwei said casually.

"Where to plant? And cut down the trees?" After Youxugang finished speaking, he played a pair of kings in his hand.

As soon as he hit it, he was thrown by Yu Yingzhi on the opposite side with a pair of 2s.

"Me and your family, what are you going to do to kill me? Will you beat me?" You Xugang asked Yu Yingzhi.

"If he doesn't kill, I will. You think a pair of kings is big. Look at the cards that come down, the big one hasn't come down yet," Lu Yan said to You Xugang.

Gu Siwei felt that these guys were really noisy. They were blushing and having thick necks while playing poker. They were not young yet, yet they were still so aggressive.

So he moved the chair, moved it a little outside, lay down and continued to sip his own tea and admire his own flowers.

After drinking a pot of tea, an hour and a half had passed. Gu Siwei lazily stood up from his chair, preparing to go to the workroom to mess with his furniture.

As he was carrying a chair and preparing to leave, he heard Yang Chuanwu's voice.

Gu Siwei wondered in his heart: Are Cao Hua and Fang Fang so busy today? They sent Song Rui over in the morning, and now they sent Yang Chuanwu to live. Are these two guys renting out in the water now?

"Four-dimensional, four-dimensional!"

Yang Chuanwu waved and greeted Gu Siwei.

Gu Siwei asked loudly: "What wind blows you here? Have you eaten?"

"Eat, how could you not eat at this time, I came here specially to discuss something with you." Yang Chuanwu came over, directly pulled a chair, sat down, and motioned for Gu Siwei to sit down too.

Gu Siwei took a look, refilled the empty kettle with water, poured Yang Chuanwu a cup of tea, and started chatting after a few strokes.
