Chapter 255 Cheeky Gulu
Gu Lu asked, "Village Chief, what kind of coarse grain is inside?" It looks quite delicate, is there no difference from flour? It smells very fragrant.
"The yellow bag is corn flour, which can be eaten by making porridge, or stirred with a small amount of water and steamed. The more delicate bag is sweet potato flour, which can be made by making porridge."
The village chief knew that they didn't know how to do it, so he said it carefully so that he would not be able to do it well and then put the blame on him.
"Okay, thank you, the village chief."
Gu Shou looked at the two bags of coarse grains fresh in color, and it seemed that the grain was also the new grain this year, so his opinions were not that big, and he became nice when speaking.
"Village Chief, I don't know how much silver these two bags of grain?" Gu Lu asked.
"Two taels of silver."
When Gu Yu and his friends bought grain, they would pick up good ones to buy even the coarse grains, so the price was relatively expensive.
The price quoted by the village chief was the same as the price the villagers bought, and he didn't dare to report it too much. He didn't know who informed him. If he made a random quote and was found out, the three of them would not come to him to argue. His reputation could not be ruined by these trivial matters, and he would not do it.
"Village Chief, this is two taels of silver, please pack it up." Gu Lu took out two taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to the village chief.
This price is simply too cheap for their family. He didn't need to discuss it with the two brothers and just took out the money to the village chief.
"Do you need help carrying it to your house?" the village chief said habitually.
"That's really great thanks to the village chief. The three of us brothers have never carried such heavy things. I'm still thinking about how to transport them back. You just started to speak. With your words from the village chief, I'm relieved." Gu Lu said shamelessly.
His family used to have a carriage, but since there was not enough food, they killed the horses and ate them.
By the way, the horse meat was really not delicious. It was old and hard, very difficult to eat, and it was very smelly. They took it to us and buried it without much eating.
The village chief's mouth twitched, I just asked casually, but you deserve to be quick, don't you know what you are polite?
However, since he had already said it, he could not let go of his regret, so he had to go out and call his two sons to come and move the food.
After Gu Fu and the other two achieved their goals, they left.
There were several clan elders in the village chief’s family, and several of them sat together to discuss who leaked the news.
Everyone had no idea and shook their heads. Only the elders of the four clans were there to speak but stopped. In the end, the elders of the three clans who were sitting opposite the four clans found something wrong with him.
"Fourth brother, do you know what?" asked the old man from the three clans.
Everyone looked at him unanimously, which made the four clans think that they had leaked the news, so they had to clarify it quickly.
"I heard my grandson say a few days ago, Liu Sanzi, the foreign household in the village, do you know who it is?"
"Oh... No matter who Liu Sanzi is, you should talk about the key points quickly, you're so anxious." The impatient old tribe couldn't stand the fourth brother and still couldn't talk about the key points here.
"Oh..." The old man from the fourth clan touched his white beard that had grown to his chest. The old man from the third clan almost went up to grab his beard and cut it off, and threw it into the toilet.
Even the elders of the second clan couldn't stand the fourth clan. They were already a little weak in the past. When the third brother was not in a downturn, the two families received a lot of help from him. This time they didn't tell their family about the food, and they felt uncomfortable.
However, the village chief said that the people who helped get the food were having some holidays with the people in the old house, and they were afraid that the person who delivered the food to the old house would be unhappy when they knew it. If they still wanted to get the food, they might no longer supply them, or raise prices, and they were embarrassed. Thinking that their family members would not be able to eat enough every day, they could only choose to keep silent about the people in the old house.
But they didn't expect that they didn't say it, but outsiders said it first. They didn't know whether to thank the person or hold a grudge against the person.
"Second, tell me quickly, why are you silly?" the old clan spoke.
"Oh..." The old man from the four clans put down his beard and continued, "Liu Sanzi has been going to Gu Fu's home recently, Gu Fu's eldest daughter Gu Meihua. I guess he told Gu Meihua, and Gu Meihua told Gu Fu again?"
After hearing this, the few people in the room nodded silently.
"I think it's probably what Liu Sanzi said. It's already like that. The follow-up depends on whether the person is calculating about this matter. I hope that person won't blame us." There are still people who are not rigorous in their words.
The few people sighed, "I hope as you said, okay, let's all be separated."
...
It has been a month since I added water to the wells in the village. I don’t know what’s going on now. On the night I just came back, the two of them quietly came out to add water to the wells in the village.
"It's so dangerous. If you don't come back, the villagers in the village will go out to wander." Jiang Qingshan sighed at the water volume that is only the length of her arm.
The two of them dared not add too much at once and they were too obvious, and only added one-third of the height.
In the blink of an eye, the Chinese New Year was just five days away. Gu Yu sent Gu Nan a New Year gift, a few bags of pastries, two bags of milk powder, four pots of water, several kinds of vegetables, and several kinds of meat. Chestnuts, pine nuts, etc. picked on the mountain, and snacks bought in Beijing were all foods that were durable. Several kinds of fruits were bought from the space mall. Gu Yu sent them home twice.
Gu Nan looked at the pile of food placed in the living room and felt that if he gave him a few more of such a brother, he could sit and wait for food and do nothing.
"Fifth brother, why didn't the fifth brother and sister come?" Yang Mengru asked embarrassedly when she saw so much food. Jiang Qingshan hadn't come to chat with her for more than a month.
"It's the New Year, I'm busy cleaning the house and preparing ingredients at home for the New Year." During the New Year, I'll just eat it.
"Oh... did you come out again a year ago?"
"I won't come anymore, I'm quite busy, let's talk about it after the New Year." I was busy cleaning up things that were not in line with this era.
"Tell her to come out and play with me if you have time." Yang Mengru felt a little regretful.
"Okay, I'll go back first, and there are still several companies that have not been completed." The Gu Nan family is the first.
"Okay, thank you, fifth brother." Gu Nan sent Gu Yu to the door and thanked him sincerely.
"No thanks." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the village.
Standing at the door of the village chief's house and checking that there was no one around, Gu Yu took out two waxed hares and a lamb leg from the ring, and knocked on the door.
The one who opened the door was still the old man. Gu Yu was curious if he was a specialist in the door. Why did you happen to be coincidental every time?
When Gu Laoda saw that it was Gu Yu coming, he immediately opened the door with a smile, "When will Xiaoyu come back?"
