Life in a quiet village in Xianshan

Chapter 168 Fair-weather friends

"Brother Gu, is your village so rich?"

Xiao Song was a little suspicious, why was this person treating guests so generously? It should be right, there is such a big village nearby.

"Brother Song Rui, you don't know that our village is not that rich, but the higher ups gave us a sum of money. Our village chief wants a few jars at home. Isn't that... eh~!" Gu Siwei was talking nonsense.

When Song Rui heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "I know, I know, isn't that the only thing? Farmers are miserable, and the village chief's family eats meat and shrimp!"

Gu Siwei smiled and acted like you know something.

"I'd like you to help me find a car later and transport it to the ferry over there," Gu Siwei said.

Song Rui was stunned for a moment, and then said to Gu Siwei: "It's really difficult now, because all the big cars have delivered goods today. I guess I only have cars at home, and you also know the style of the people who drive cars." ? These people are all uncles. As soon as they step out of this door, oil will leak out. It is really difficult to deal with them."

When Gu Siwei heard this, he immediately said: "Brother Song, why don't you ask him out, and we'll be done together at noon?"

"I like that meal, but others don't like it. When I go out in a car to do some personal work or something, I see big chunks of meat at least twice a day, and these grandsons are holding it in their mouths." Song Rui shook his head.

Not to mention now, even twenty years later, car driving will also be a very respectable job. When Gu Siwei was in school, one of his classmates drove for a winery. Every time he came back from the car, there would be a few more people at home. A box of wine, even if someone doesn’t want it, I can’t bring it home unless I have good wine.

In the end, there was a special room in the house for drinking wine, and there was a lot of excitement. The sons of the family all had two-story houses.

At this moment, the driver doesn't look at ordinary people seriously. He is a serious high-level technical worker and wants to pick a beautiful wife.

"Brother, do you have to deliver it tonight? Not tomorrow morning?"

Gu Siwei said: "I have made an appointment with someone here to wait there. I can't let people wait all night, right?"

Song Rui thought for a while and said, "That's not easy. If you ask them to wait for a while, they don't have to wait too long. It will be almost done by the time the sun goes down. I will help you find a big truck to pull it, and it can also save you a little. When the time comes, just give each of the cart drivers a dollar and a pack of autumn chrysanthemums. If you have the money to pay for the truck drivers, you can buy three more good-mouthed jars."

"Okay, just as you said, why am I so lucky? Now that I have met you, the tank purchase is worth it," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Song Rui said: "Getting along with this person depends on whether you get along with each other. I can see that you are a generous person and know how to get into trouble. Our friendship has become better."

"Isn't it okay?" Gu Siwei said with a smile.

"That's that, let's go to my brother's work to have a rest. Let's continue picking up tanks after a while," Song Rui said with a smile.

Just like that, the two of them went back to the ceramics factory and chatted until noon. After picking out the jars, they paid for them. It's so good that you don't need a ticket for this thing, as long as you have money.

That's right, how could this thing be out of stock? It's not an industrial product at all. We have been exporting ceramics.

When he arrived at the restaurant, Gu Siwei ordered ordinary pork head meat as promised, but did not order pork liver. Instead, he ordered better braised pork, the big piece, which is also called meat or meat in some places. It is a big piece of meat, as long as a human face, and as thick as one and a half finger joints. The oil is shining brightly when held on the chopsticks, and the meat trembles slightly.

The dumplings are made with fresh meat. In short, it is a pleasure to eat, and the food is just oily and watery.

When the food was served, Song Rui had no intention of talking to Gu Siwei. He kept dragging the meat, then the pig head meat, and ate the fat.

Gu Siwei didn't look down on him either. People at this time had no fat in their stomachs at all. They were as thin as a mantis. Song Rui, who was over 1.7 meters tall, probably didn't even weigh a hundred pounds. What do you think of him? What can you eat without losing fat?

The human stomach is always limited. After dragging three large pieces of meat into his stomach, half of the plate of pork head meat was also consumed, and the plate of dumplings was also eaten. Song Rui was full.

"Don't laugh at me, brother. My brother's family has a large population, and there are seven or eight people living on my salary. They can't eat meat more than a few times a year," Song Rui said a little embarrassed.

Gu Siwei said: "Who is better than the other these days? Stop talking, we don't need to be polite."

Gu Siwei really didn't look down on this man. People nowadays are short of food and clothing. It's still good just like this. Life would have been even worse a few years ago.

Gu Siwei doesn't eat much. It's not that the food isn't delicious. To be honest, the food is just average. But how could Gu Siwei lack these things? People who eat often will naturally not be so nervous and pick some thin spots to eat. With a few chopsticks, you can finish the dumplings in front of you and the meal is complete.

Gu Siwei went to the counter to pay the bill. Song Rui was about to leave when he came back. Gu Siwei motioned him to wait. After a while, the waiter brought over a small enamel basin with a lid. , almost as big as a soup basin at home.

The basin is knotted with fine linen rope, so it fits easily in the hand.

"Brother Rui, take it. The meat here is pretty good. Take it home and give it to my sister-in-law and the others to try."

Gu Siwei bought another copy here.

Song Rui didn't know what to say now. He opened and closed his mouth but no words came out. After carrying the things, he said to Gu Siwei: "You can only watch my performance from now on. We won't lobby." It’s a cliche.”

"What are you talking about? Let's go."

Gu Siwei pushed him gently on the back, and the two of them were about to go out.

"Song Rui, the enamel basin is not for you. I will bring it back later or I will go to your house." The waiter naturally recognized Song Rui and joked with him with a smile.

Song Rui also smiled and replied: "Okay, I will send it back to you later. I am a little poor, but what can I do for you with an enamel basin?"

"It's hard to say. But your brother is so generous," the waiter said with a smile.

Song Rui said: "My brother is not married yet, how about you divorce me and marry my brother?"

"Forget it." The waiter was not a good person: "If you don't get along with your wife, I can think about it."

"Okay, I'll go back and talk about it now." Song Rui laughed and carried her things out the door.

"Brother Siwei, go to my unit and wait for me." Song Rui was about to send the things back first.

Gu Siwei waved his hand and said: "Brother Song Rui, I won't go. I will go back to the dock and wait for the tank. Why should I worry about leaving it to you?"

"Okay, I'll take care of this. Just wait at the pier. The sun will set at the latest. You can't say it sooner." Song Rui stopped talking to Gu Siweiduo.

After they parted ways, Gu Siwei walked to the pier, and Song Rui naturally carried his things home.

Gu Siwei thought that it would be fine if he arrived at the small pier at this time, so he got into the space and took a deep sleep when he could almost see the pier halfway.

After coming out, we arrived at the pier. It was empty and there were no people around. As for the village, which was not far away, Gu Siwei didn't know anyone, so he simply lay down under the shade of the trees here.

Just when Gu Siwei was looking up at the leaves of the trees above his head, a cute little face stretched out.

"Hey, where are you from and what are you doing at the dock in our village? Do you want to steal something?"

The expression on the little face is a bit ferocious, or maybe it's trying to appear ferocious. Unfortunately, the little face is not ferocious at all. Not only is it not ferocious, it's also pretty.

Coupled with the two big braids that almost all unmarried women wear at the moment, it is even less intimidating.

This girl is quite good-looking, but she is not the prettiest that Gu Siwei has seen here. The prettiest one is Hu Yanqiu, who has the cheerfulness and cheerfulness of a leading heroine.

The little girl in front of her was pretty, but at most she looked like a green apple, which might suit some people's tastes, but Gu Siwei wasn't too interested in it.

"I'm waiting for someone."

"Who are you waiting for? Do I know him?" The girl was a little curious.

"I guess you don't know him?" Gu Siwei sat up.

Hearing some movement nearby, he turned around and saw that there were two girls not far away from him. However, these two girls were a bit sneaky and were looking towards him.

As soon as Gu Siwei saw this stance, he knew that it was the rest of the game when he was in school, but at that time, Gu Siwei was surrounded by several half-grown boys, facing a beautiful little girl.

"Hey, why are you laughing? I asked you who you are. If you tell me, I might know you," the girl urged.

Girls of this age will naturally be attracted to handsome young men, not to mention Gu Siwei's good looks, and among the dark-skinned old and young farmers, he stands out like a chicken. No one is as handsome as him, no one is as white as him, and no one is as tall as him. Is there any proper eye candy?

"Song Rui, you don't know, right?" Gu Siwei said with a smile.

"Song Rui from the ceramics factory?"

Who knew the girl would blurt it out.

"Yes! You actually know" Gu Siwei smiled.

The girl said: "Who am I talking about? Let me tell you, he is my cousin, not a relative, but more distant. His grandma and my grandpa are biological siblings."

When the girl said this, Gu Siwei understood that the custom in the countryside is that the maternal uncle continues to kiss each other, which means that the uncle's family and the nephew's family can continue to marry within several generations, as long as they are of the same generation, they are still cousins. .

But the same can't be said for aunties. There is a saying that the relationship between mother's sisters is broken as soon as the aunt goes to kiss. It means that if the aunt dies, you and the aunt on the other side of the aunt are actually broken off from each other, and you can't continue to be aunts. Something.

So what the girl said about Song Rui being cousins ​​is not wrong.

Gu Siwei only learned about these things after living here for a period of time. How would he know these things decades later? At that time, it would be good to find a cousin or cousin, who would understand it so clearly.

"Are you my cousin's friend?" The girl sat directly next to Gu Siwei.

This move was a bold move at this time. Even if she was not sitting next to Gu Siwei, the distance between the two was almost one meter, but this girl was already quite bold.

It doesn't matter if you live in the fourth dimension.

"He and I are friends," Gu Siwei nodded.

Are fair-weather friends no longer friends? Not just calculations, but also pure friends. They call each other brothers all day long and say they can protect you from a knife. Gu Siwei feels that this kind of friends are not as honest as fair-weather friends.
