"I heard that your family wants to introduce you to someone?" Gu Xingye suddenly said without any clue.
Zhang Xiaoju was stunned for a moment. Looking at Gu Xingye's serious expression, her heartbeat unconsciously skipped half a beat. She looked away and did not dare to look at him. She whispered: "Are you going to buy something or not?"
In the spirit of extending his head and shrinking his head, Gu Xingye gritted his teeth and said, "What do you think of me?"
Zhang Xiaoju was stunned, and when she realized the meaning of his words, her pretty face was so red that she could bleed.
Gu Xingye became a little anxious when she didn't answer: "I think you're pretty good. If you think I'm pretty good too, I'll ask my mother to invite a matchmaker to your house when I get home."
Zhang Xiaoju was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say when she was suddenly confessed.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your promise and I'll go back and tell my family." Gu Xingye said as he turned around and walked out.
"Hey!" Zhang Xiaoju opened her mouth and wanted to stop him, but Gu Xingye walked away very quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
…
On the first day of delivery, Chen Lishu completed a total of twelve outfits. After telling Gu Xingping early in the morning, she got on her bicycle and returned to the village.
"Sister-in-law, you are back." Gu Xingye was chopping firewood in the yard and grinned when he saw her coming in.
Chen Lishu smiled and joked: "What good thing does fourth brother do to make you laugh so happily?"
"It's not a good thing." Li Xiulan put down the chicken food bowl in her hand and happily said to Chen Lishu: "Lao Si is dating, and you know this guy."
The old son finally found a partner, and she was relieved.
Chen Lishu was surprised: "Fourth brother has a partner? Do I still know him?"
Thinking of something, he looked at Gu Xingye inquiringly. Seeing him nodding, he sincerely congratulated him and said, "Congratulations, fourth brother, for getting what you wanted."
Gu Xingye scratched his head in embarrassment and narrowed his eyes, revealing his big white teeth.
Chen Lishu returned to the house, and Zhang Qin was sewing clothes in her room. During this time, Li Xiulan and Wu Chunmei were cutting, and Zhang Qin was in charge of sewing. In less than half a month, forty sets were made.
"Mom and Dad, now that the team has distributed food, I want to collect the food privately and sell it in the town." After dinner, Chen Lishu discussed with everyone the things she had been considering in the past few days.
"If anyone wants to join me, you can consider buying shares."
Gu Xingye raised his head: "Third sister-in-law, what is stock ownership?"
Others also looked over curiously.
Chen Lishu briefly explained to everyone: "For example, I pay the capital and you collect the grain. After making money, we can divide the money according to a certain proportion, or you can also contribute money. The more you contribute, the greater your share.
"
Chen Lishu paused and continued: "Don't worry, I have already found a buyer. When the time comes, I can just collect the grain and sell it to him directly."
"Third sister-in-law, count me in." Gu Xingye was the first to express his opinion after hearing this. He was completely convinced of Chen Lishu's abilities. Besides, he also wanted to marry Zhang Xiaoju in a glamorous manner, which would require money.
"It just so happens that I still have one hundred yuan saved from my previous salary." Gu Xingye said and went to the house to take out the one hundred yuan.
Chen Lishu also went back to the house to get pen and paper and wrote down Gu Xingye's share.
Gu Xingguo glanced at Zhang Qin, saw her nodding and said, "Let's be like the fourth child."
Since Zhang Qin followed Chen Lishu, she also saved a lot of money. However, to be on the safe side, the couple decided to invest only 100 yuan. Zhang Qin quickly went back to the house and took out 100 yuan.
"Your father and I don't have much money, so we won't contribute money, just contribute." As they are getting older, Gu Xingye and Gu Xingping have not yet started a family, so the old couple dare not act casually.
"Third brother and sister, can you bring me and your second sister-in-law with you?" Gu Xingmin saw everyone discussing in full swing and couldn't help but ask with a stern look on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on Chen Lishu.
What Gu Xingmin and his wife did back then was truly chilling. Regardless of whether Chen Lishu agreed to take them or not, they would not say anything.
"Second brother, do you think I should take you with me?" Chen Lishu looked at the two of them with dark eyes.
"Isn't that everything over? Besides, we are all a family, and you have brought the eldest brother and the fourth brother with you." Liu Yuemin couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
Chen Lishu's eyes were fixed on her.
Liu Yuemin had just finished being beaten, and the wounds on her face had not healed yet. She was a little frightened when she met Chen Lishu's gaze, and she unconsciously shrank back.
"Don't always use a family to kidnap me. I don't know who you are just for Xingdong's sake? Also, since what happened last time, has one of you realized that you were wrong? Who else will follow?
Did I say sorry? Why should I take you with me when I didn’t even apologize?"
After being reprimanded in front of the whole family, Gu Xingmin and Liu Yuemin's faces turned green and red. However, in order to make money, Gu Xingmin still had to bite the bullet and said: "Third brother and sister, what you and I did before was indeed wrong.
We are the bastards, we will be beaten and punished, what do you think?"
After Gu Xingmin finished speaking, seeing Liu Yuemin not expressing his stance, he kicked her without leaving a trace under the table.
"Yes, third brother and sister, it was the two of us who made a mistake. Just give us another chance to change our ways. We will definitely work hard. I promise that nothing like that will happen again in the future."
Chen Lishu asked: "What if there is?"
"I'll be struck by five thunderbolts from the sky and I won't die." Liu Yuemin said decisively.
Chen Lishu looked at Gu Xingmin again, who also said sincerely: "Third brother and sister, how do you punish us? We will all suffer."
Chen Lishu nodded when she saw that both of them had made promises: "Mom, Dad, brother, you are all here to bear witness. If they do anything that is detrimental to everyone's interests during our cooperation, then I will not only kick them out, but they must also
We must compensate everyone for their losses.”
The couple was very happy to see Chen Lishu finally relenting.
Gu Xingmin couldn't wait to say: "We will also pay 100 yuan like the eldest brother and fourth brother."
Chen Lishu nodded: "Then I will contribute five hundred yuan. Although my parents only contribute, but now the family is separated, I will divide the shares into five equal shares. The extra money will be considered as filial piety money for my parents. Do you think it is okay?"
"I agree with what the third brother and sister said." Gu Xingguo was the first to express his opinion. He thought Chen Lishu's proposal was very good.
Gu Xingye and Gu Xingmin both nodded in agreement, and the matter was settled.
"Everyone is not particular about what they collect. If there are dry goods, they can also collect them. When the food is not harvested during the period before the New Year, they can also fry the dry goods and sell them."
After more than a year of getting along, everyone now has great trust in her, so no one objects to anything she says.
When she returned to town with the ready-made clothes the next day, everyone in the Gu family also quietly started to put away the food.
