Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 60
In the early morning of the next day, Li Dequan had already got up, but he was not in a hurry to enter the town. He first filled the water tank at home, and then went to the field to pull out the barnyard grass that had grown. Xu Qinshi called him , "Dequan, why are you still going to the field today, and you will go to the town later, so are you afraid that you will not be able to manage the field?"

Li Dequan rubbed his hands stupidly, "I'm thinking that this time has passed, maybe the boss hasn't gotten up yet, so I just want to do something first, anyway, I feel a little flustered if I really take the job, the things in the field I can't care less."

Xu Qinshi chuckled, "I really don't care about me?"

Li Dequan's face was a little reddish, and he stumbled a little, "Why, how can I let you go to the field? It's not good for our family..."

As soon as Xu Qinshi heard his words, he knew in his heart that most of the people were telling stories. He probably took the two harsh words from others seriously.For a moment, Xu Qinshi was a little helpless, thinking of Gu Yu's sharp mouth back then, the father was honest, not as open-minded as a girl, then Xu Qinshi figured it out again, this Li Dequan is the pillar of the family, a big man was beaten outside It's natural for people to lose face when they say that, so she smiled knowingly, "Then it's up to you, just don't forget the business."

As soon as I heard that I was going to discuss business, or the business introduced by Xu Qinshi, it was the restaurant that I introduced last time, Gu Yu immediately became excited, thinking that since I have nothing to do at home, I will be bored, so I should go out for a stroll , maybe you can find some way to get money, anyway, if you stay at home, even if God drops money, you can't get it yourself.

Thinking of this, she followed Li Dequan loudly and said, "Father, take Gu Yu too."

Li Dequan glanced at Gu Yu, this little girl will soon be ten years old, probably due to illness, so she still looks a little weak, and she is slender, it is really difficult for her, follow her to this place The place suffers, but although she is thin, Gu Yu's complexion is good, red is red and white is white, especially a pair of eyes, it seems that she really talks more and has more ideas in this Taozhuang, Li Dequan is a little relieved, but Still feeling a little guilty, thinking back when the adults decided to come back, the two girls didn’t ask, didn’t even complain, he felt a little sad, “Gu Yu, you’re so skinny, you should eat more, and I’ll buy it for you when Dad earns money.” something to eat."

Gu Yu hurriedly shook her head. In her previous life, she also stayed in the ward all day. She was still cheerful, but her figure was a little puffy. Now she doesn't know how satisfied she is with her slender figure, so she doesn't want to go back fat, " Dad, what is fat or not? Some people can gain weight by drinking water, but I don’t get fat even by eating meat!"

Xiao Man was stepping over the threshold when he heard Gu Yu say, "Okay, you're the only one who won't get fat! But it's true, and my aunt didn't see anything to eat, isn't it..." Before finishing speaking, Xiao Man probably realized What did you get, shut up.

Gu Yu muttered, "Hmph, she just eats fat and steals eggs from home every day."

Li Dequan looked at Gu Yu's white and tender look, "Gu Yu, you'd better not go, the sun is so hot, it will be bad if you get dizzy."

Gu Yu pouted and didn't speak, with a very dissatisfied expression, and rolled his eyes twice, "If I don't go, do you know where the restaurant is, besides, I don't have much to do when I stay at home, so I don't need to do anything when I go out. people's food."

When Xu Qinshi heard Gu Yu say this, she was amused, "Oh, you little girl, you still plan to cook less than one person's meal, no wonder you are the housekeeper of your family, but how much can your little belly hold?"

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to scratch it, Gu Yu had itchy flesh on his body, so he hurriedly dodged to the side.

Li Dequan couldn't hold back the grain rain, so he didn't go to the fields anymore, he was afraid that when the sun was high and the grain rain would come, it would be better to go to cool off at this time, and find time to do the work in the field.

The sun was just rising, and although it was bright, it didn't feel any temperature.The father and daughter walked on the dirt road.

It was still early, and most of the farmer households were carrying things to the town to buy things. Those who wanted to go to the market to buy things usually went to the field to do a lot of work while the weather was clear, so as not to delay it for a day, or those who The women have to prepare delicious food for the family members, wash the clothes and feed the pigs, and only come after cleaning up, so half of those shops are not open.

Gu Yu took Li Dequan to Xu Shihe's restaurant familiarly, only to find that besides the cover hanging on the door, a lot of dust had been collected, it looked a bit dusty, and there was not even a signboard at the door. Some sighed, "Even if people want to go to a restaurant, they don't know how to say it. Could it be that they are going to a restaurant with a dirty pretense?"

Li Dequan didn't seem to have heard Gu Yu's words, the shop hadn't opened yet, just looking at the door, a small piece of the door panel had been removed, which could still allow people to come in and out, but Li Dequan was hesitant to go in, and regretted that he came too Early, standing at the door hesitated.

Gu Yu looked at the door panel of the shop, it turned out that it was not painted with any color, just a layer of clear tung oil, that's not counting, there was also a threshold, thinking how inconvenient it would be to get in and out, in case If a guest got drunk and tripped over, wouldn't it affect the business? Gu Yu was very picky even before entering the door.

Seeing Li Dequan standing still, Gu Yu smiled and said: "Father, it's getting late, and they are all businessmen, so they don't care about these things. If you feel uncomfortable, I'll call the door. I'm a child. in the way."

After finishing speaking, Gu Yu knocked on the door and shouted loudly, "Uncle, is Uncle there?"

They didn't call twice before they heard hurried footsteps, "Hey, the door is open, come in."

Gu Yu took Li Dequan's big hand to enter the door, and seeing the person who spoke just now, he could see blood stains on his clothes in the indistinct light, and frowned again, seeing that the attire was probably a hired man, so he said: "This Brother, we are from Taozhuang, we are here to find the boss."

That guy looked sloppy but was shrewd, "Oh, but it's from the Li family in Taozhuang?"

Li Dequan nodded quickly, "Brother, please take us to see the boss."

But the guy shook his head, "That's good, you're welcome, the boss is waiting for you upstairs, this little girl came here last time, and I'm going to kill that pot of fish, at noon, the young master of the Ning family If you want to come to eat, go by yourself." After finishing speaking, he went to work again.

The wooden stairs made a muffled noise, and the handrails also felt a little greasy. Gu Yuxin said that this restaurant was too careless. Thinking of the smelly fish blood on the guy just now, Gu Yu felt a little sick.

When I went upstairs, I felt suddenly enlightened. First of all, the light was much brighter, but there were two large round tables in the middle of the second floor, and a person was standing in front of the window, concentrating on something.

Gu Yu laughed and called out, "Uncle, I am here with my father. It was grandma who said that your business here is booming and you are going to make some tables and chairs."

Xu Shihe hurriedly asked them to sit down, and it was obvious that they had been prepared. There were snacks and a pot of hot tea on the table. Gu Yu poured the tea first, handed it to Xu Shihe, and then to Li Dequan. Just sat down properly.

Xu Shihe couldn't help but glanced at her more. He had been looking forward to that uncle for so many years. He thought that Xu's birth would not be too long now, so he was a little comforted. It turned out that he had always thought that if his sister could give Li's family more As a son, the days to come will not be so miserable. Seeing that Gu Yu is so sensible at this time, the tea is poured just right, and he is quiet and well-mannered. He is completely different from the children of other relatives. He ate with an open stomach and filled his snacks before he was willing to leave. He couldn't help but smiled, thinking that it didn't matter if he was a niece at that time, "This——"

"Uncle, my name is Gu Yu, my elder brother is Jing Zhe and my sister is Xiao Man, and my younger brother who can't speak is Xia Zhi. When the second aunt is born, he will be called Xiao Han or Da Han."

Xu Shihe finally couldn't help it anymore, "Gu Yu, you know everything at such a young age, but you don't feel afraid when you look quiet, why don't you go downstairs to have a meeting, and I will talk to your father, can you sit still? Are you bored?"

Seeing Xu Shihe's appearance, Gu Yu was shrewd, capable and kind, just a little fat, but he didn't look treacherous, but he was more friendly, so he said, "Just pretend I'm not here when you talk about yourself."

Even so, Gu Yu was still a little sleepy when he heard them talking, it was nothing more than chatting first, and then he talked about the restaurant. He said this and said that the restaurant was difficult at the beginning, but he didn't say what to do now. Gu Yu was a little interested when he heard it, and couldn't help but slipped off the stool and started to walk upstairs.

The second floor looks quite large, but apart from the two large tables in the middle, it looks a bit empty. Get a private room or something, anyway, there are not such distinguished guests in the town, and they don't like to be bothered by others.After doing the calculations like this, I got roughly what I needed, thinking about these tasks would be enough for my father to sit on for a while, so I couldn't help but feel a little happy, so I didn't think too much about it.

Originally, she wanted to tell Xu Shihe that there were many areas for improvement in this restaurant, but she also thought that she was a little kid, and she had never seen anything. She was not familiar with the place in this place, and it was not the era that she could know in her history book. Well, maybe the people here like this. It is better not to intervene in business affairs, so as not to be self-defeating.

Now that she had made up her mind, she stopped watching what the adults said, looked at the snacks on the table, swallowed her saliva, and was afraid that Xu Shihe would find out, so she went downstairs quietly.

The door below has been opened, which makes it much brighter. There are already two tables occupied by guests, who speak in a rough voice and put their feet on the stool. Gu Yu sighed again, thinking what is wrong with this A restaurant looks like a food stall, but it's really rare to have such a scale in this town. On weekdays, when my family eats a bowl of rice noodles or a piece of rice cake outside, I have to think about how I dare to enter such a place.

Thinking of the hardships of life, Gu Yu felt a little unwilling, and stepped out of the door to get some air, but then she stepped out of the threshold carefully, and something swept her shoulders, and there was a bit of stinging pain, and there was a sound of wind on her cheeks. It was a little hot, Gu Yu was frightened: "Oh--" shouted loudly.
