Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 50
When he arrived at the factory, Gu Siwei first found a place to eat something, bought a bowl of noodles with the meal ticket, and went to the store after eating.

When he arrived at the store, Gu Siwei entered the door and immediately saw Hu Yanqiu who was chatting with someone.

Hu Yanqiu also saw Gu Siwei, greeted his colleagues, opened the partition on the counter, and walked out.

"It's been a while since I saw you."

Hu Yanqiu said with a smile at Gu Siwei.

Gu Siwei said: "Our village is far away from here. It takes a whole day to go back and forth. How can we come here often."

"Go, talk to the side, it's inconvenient to talk here." Hu Yanqiu looked back, turned to Gu Siwei and said to his colleague who had an ambiguous smile on his face.

Gu Siwei didn't think too much, he waved his hand at Hu Yanqiu's colleague, and almost blurted out: Hey.

The two came to the outside of the store, about ten meters away from the gate, and it wasn't a hidden place, just farther away from the gate.

After standing still, Hu Yanqiu took out a few tickets from his pocket.

"The chickens and ducks I sent to our family last time, you have to accept the money...".

Gu Siwei stretched out his hand and pushed: "How can there be such a saying? If you say so, then I have no choice but to take off the jacket on my body and return it to you."

Hu Yanqiu said: "It's different."

"What's the difference? We're friends, right? Friends reciprocate, what do you mean by giving me money? Look down on me, or do you think I'm not worthy of being friends with you?" Gu Siwei said.

How can Hu Yanqiu be Gu Siwei's opponent in this respect? Hu Yanqiu has just joined the work, so how can he be an opponent of a veteran who has worked for ten years.

"Nothing, I consider you as a friend. It's just that you gave too much. My mother said that it's not easy for you to hunt these things. We don't want to take your things for nothing." Hu Yanqiu didn't know what to say alright.

"It's good to be friends, you can take things with confidence, and there will be places that will be used by you in the future, so just don't shirk it when the time comes," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Hu Yanqiu won, and immediately patted his chest and said: "In the future, you can come to me for anything, as long as it can be done, I will definitely not push it!"

"That's right!" Gu Siwei laughed.

"There is one thing I need to ask you for help now." Suddenly, an idea popped into Gu Siwei's mind.

Hu Yanqiu said, "What's the matter?"

"It's still about the cloth. I have a girl in my family. I want to make some colorful cloth for her to make a beautiful dress," Gu Siwei said.

As soon as Hu Yanqiu heard about the girl, he still wanted to pull beautiful clothes for her, so the corner of his mouth subconsciously twitched, and he pretended to ask casually, "Your wife?"

This made Gu Siwei stunned for a moment: "Did I seem to be talking about a girl just now?"

"Oh, that's my misunderstanding. We say that girls often refer to daughter-in-law," Hu Yanqiu said.

Gu Siwei said: "It's so high, little girl, it's time to love beauty. These are the meal tickets I saved these days, not many, you can see if it's enough."

Taking out the meal ticket, Hu Yanqiu took it and counted it: "I really don't know about it, but it's not too bad, I'll take you to ask."

Speaking of which, Hu Yanqiu took Gu Siwei to the place where the cloth was sold.

Gu Siwei gestured here, and the salesperson asked Gu Siwei again if he was making cotton jackets or something, thinking that he had cotton jackets, he said to make a single jacket.

The salesperson understood the question, and without using a ruler to measure it, he unfolded the cloth, stretched out his arms and exerted force, only to hear a hissing sound, and a piece of bright red floral cloth was torn off neatly.

At this time, Gu Siwei stretched out his thumb.

Let Gu Siwei measure it, and the cloth that should be a few feet is not bad at all.

Not to mention, although most of the salespersons at this time have bad attitudes, many of the jobs at hand are really good.

Going to the cashier to pay, and took the cloth under his armpits, Gu Siwei and Hu Yanqiu went outside to chat again.

About ten minutes later, Hu Yanqiu looked at his watch: "I'm off work right away, wait a while and follow me to our house for dinner."

Gu Siwei's head grew bigger when he heard it: "Is this inappropriate?"

Hu Yanqiu said: "What's inappropriate, why don't I give you the chicken and duck's money? Just now you said we were friends."

Gu Siwei said with a bitter face: "Sister, although we are friends, you are a woman and I am a man. If I come to your house for dinner at this time, others will definitely chew their tongues."

Although he just came here, Gu Siwei understands that there is no shortage of good people in any era. I followed a big girl to go home for dinner, let alone now, even when Gu Siwei came, the meaning is different. Unless he's not alone.

"What are you afraid of? Let's do this. It's fine if I call an accompanying guest. Don't run away." Hu Yanqiu pointed at Gu Siwei.

"We won't be friends if we run away."

Gu Siwei was quite speechless, thinking: If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come at this time.

But after thinking about it, it's not the right time to come. After dinner, people get off work, and they can catch up with dinner at work. It seems that this meal can't be escaped.

Since he couldn't run away, Gu Siwei felt calm, he just had a meal, and he didn't go to the guillotine for fear of a woolen yarn.

Hu Yanqiu asked himself to wait, so wait a little longer, but before that, Gu Siwei left for a while, and when he came back, he had an extra basket in his hand, and the basket contained wild eggs.

When he came back to the door of the store, Gu Siwei had just stood there for less than a minute when he saw a very energetic young man coming by on a bicycle.

The young man is about 20 years old, about 1.7 meters tall, and looks like July [-]th.

Lao Gu felt that this young man was just a little worse than himself.

The young man wore a blue Chinese tunic suit, green military trousers, a pair of black leather shoes on his feet, and a domestic watch on his wrist.

With this outfit and a bicycle, the young man must not come out of an ordinary family. After all, the parents of the family must be the middle and upper class of the factory, otherwise a young man would not have such an outfit.

Just as Gu Siwei was looking at the young man, the young man came directly to Gu Siwei's side, and stretched out his hand with a smile.

"Are you Comrade Gu Siwei?"

Gu Siwei was a little stunned when he heard it, and asked in surprise: "We know each other?"

Gu Siwei is sure that he has never seen this young man, let alone know him, as long as he has seen such a person on the street, it is impossible for him not to remember.

"We met for the first time, but Yanqiu said when he called me that he would recognize you when he got here. I came over and took a look and knew that you must be the friend Yanqiu was talking about." The young man smiled.

Seeing that his hand hadn't been withdrawn, Gu Siwei stretched out his hand and shook it with the young man.

The strength in the young man's hand is not small, but it is not the kind of grip that finds fault, but a very enthusiastic grip. Just shaking hands, Gu Siwei can feel the spirit of the young man.

"My name is Qiao Yitong, our family and Yanqiu's family are family friends," the young man introduced himself.

Gu Siwei said: "Hello, Comrade Qiao Yitong, my name is Gu Siwei."

"Hello, hello" Qiao Yitong laughed loudly.

"This is……".

Qiao Yitong noticed the basket in Gu Siwei's hand.

"Wild eggs, I brought them here, I didn't know I could meet you, I will bring some for you to try next time."

Qiao Yitong is very handsome and has a good temperament, which makes people want to get close to him after seeing him. Gu Siwei is just an ordinary person. When he meets a handsome person who speaks politely and politely, he will naturally feel good about him.

Qiao Yitong said with a smile: "Then I will thank you first!"

Qiao Yitong thought that Gu Siwei was just talking casually.

"What are you two talking about, so happy?"

Just as he was talking, Hu Yanqiu came out from the inside. At this moment, Hu Yanqiu had changed his work coat and white hat, with a red scarf wrapped around his head, and a light blue plain coat on his upper body. It's a bit warped, and it doesn't get rid of the sense of the times, but this color is already considered to be the most beautiful color on the street.

"I didn't talk about anything, I was talking about wild eggs." Qiao Yitong laughed.

"Where did you get the wild eggs? I didn't see you carrying them just now?" Hu Yanqiu asked a little curiously.

Gu Siwei said: "I can let you know all this, no matter how friends we are, we have to have a little private secret, right?"

After listening to Gu Siwei's words, Qiao Yitong and Hu Yanqiu were immediately amused by Gu Siwei's innocent expression.

"Okay, let's go, I've called, how do I go?" Hu Yanqiu asked.

Comrade Qiao Yi said: "I'm taking Gu Siwei with you, and you ride the bike by yourself. Why do you need to ask such a simple matter?"

"Right!"

Gu Siwei was not polite when he heard this, and when he was waiting for Qiao Yitong to start riding the bike with the basket, he caught up with Qiao Yitong's buttocks in two steps, and sat on the back seat of Qiao Yitong.

After a while, Hu Yanqiu who was riding a bicycle caught up, and the three of them went to Hu Yanqiu's house talking and laughing.

When he arrived at the gate of the family area, Gu Siwei got off his bicycle, because the gate of the family area was closed at this time, leaving only the small door on the gate open, and it was obviously impossible for the bicycle to ride through.

Just as Gu Siwei came down, he heard someone groaning.

Turning his head, Gu Siwei found out that he was still an acquaintance. Who is Director Wu who he met last time when he came to sell pigs.

"That little comrade!"

Director Wu saw that Gu Siwei's eyes lit up, and immediately waved his hands and trotted towards Gu Siwei.

"Director Wu?"

Gu Siwei didn't have a good impression of this person, and felt that this person had a bureaucratic air.

"It's me, it's me, why haven't you seen you for a long time, I've been looking for you several times."

Director Wu, who saw Gu Siwei again, looked enthusiastic.

Gu Siwei was a little confused, and thought: We don't have such a good relationship, do we?

"Yitong, you guys know each other too? Yo, Xiao Yanqiu is here too." Director Wu only saw Qiao Yitong and Hu Yanqiu at this time.

"Brother Daorong!"

Qiao Yitong and Hu Yanqiu also greeted Director Wu.

Seeing this, Gu Siwei thought to himself: This place is small enough, you can always meet acquaintances.
