Chapter 26 Overslept
In particular, Gu Jianping and his wife only gave birth to one daughter, Gu Hongmei, and they loved her as much as Gu Wu and Gu Yu.

It's just that Gu Pan's family hasn't been separated yet, so he didn't go too far.

Gu Yu believed that if the family separated, his second cousin and his wife would want to tie Gu Hongmei to their trousers and carry her with them at all times.

She went to the kitchen to heat up the food and put it on the table and said, "Come here to eat first, then take a foot soak and have a good night's rest."

It was almost two o'clock now, and Gu Yu didn't want them to continue chatting.

Mrs. Yang took her sister-in-law's hand and said, "Boss, let's go have a bowl of rice together and then go back to the house to sleep."

The sister-in-law didn't want to go back at this point, so she simply had a bowl of rice with Gu Wu and his wife and returned to Gu Yu's house.

Gu Yu took the bowl to the main room and poured half a bowl of ginseng wine. She took out the money and gave it to Yang and said, "I went out to look for you in the middle of the night. I was afraid that no one at home would be safe. I took the money with me and my mother put the money away again." Bar!"

"You did the right thing. It's really not safe to go out in the middle of the night." Yang took a look at the big purse and said, "Oh! I have so much money at home and I don't worry about going out at night. I don't worry about it in broad daylight either. I'm afraid that... A dishonest person came to the house and stole the money."

Gu Yu poured a glass of ginseng wine for Gu Wu. The warm color of the wine glowed seductively under the light. She smiled and said to Gu Wu, "Dad, drink this wine to relieve your fatigue."

Then he turned to Mrs. Yang and said, "It's late tonight. Let's rest first. Tomorrow we will discuss how to spend the money reasonably."

Gu Wu drank the whole glass of wine in one gulp and smacked his lips with satisfaction: "This wine is not strong, sweet, and very comfortable. Yu'er, give your mother a sip as well and let her drink it, and go back to the house to rest early."

When Yang asked her to drink ginseng wine, she was a little embarrassed and refused: "I don't have a good drinking tolerance. I get drunk after drinking. Ginseng wine is so expensive, so I won't drink it."

Although she said this, her curiosity about wine showed in her eyes.

Gu Yu took a small sip and said, "Mom, my father said this wine is delicious and not strong. Just take a sip!"

"No, no." Yang waved her hand and refused.

Gu Wu had lived with the Yang family for most of his life, so he didn't know what she was thinking. He glanced at her, blew his beard and glared: "Our family has no shortage of that drink now, so you can drink it if you are asked, why are you so embarrassed? "

Yang: "..."

You damn old man thinks simply. This jar of wine costs fifty kilograms per catty, and the jar of wine in the empty house weighs fifty kilograms, so the twenty-five hundred penny is gone.

The soaked ginseng root was even more valuable, costing hundreds of taels! She couldn't bear to drink such expensive wine.

As their daughter, Gu Yu certainly understood Yang's concerns and said, "Mom, drink it quickly. My sister-in-law is still waiting in my room. I want to give it to her to have a taste!"

Yang was not dissatisfied with her words, and said with a smile on her face: "Then take it to your sister-in-law to drink."

Gu Yu: "..."

If you are reluctant to drink it yourself, you are more willing to give it to others.

Giving Gu Wu a wink, Gu Wu understood and said: "It's not like I bought wine outside, I brewed it at home and I'm reluctant to drink it. Everyone is working very hard during this period. If you don't drink, if something goes wrong with your body, it's not rain." Take care of your son."

Here, it is not easy to travel to the village, and taking medicine when sick is also a big expense. People in the village believe that getting sick less often or not getting sick will reduce the burden on the family.

When Yang heard this, she felt mixed emotions in her heart. She knew that Gu Wu was right, but the price of that vat of wine and that ginseng root was not low.

She really couldn't bear to drink it.

He stared at the bowl containing a sip of wine and pondered for a few seconds, then picked up the bowl and drank the wine in one gulp. The wine slides down the throat, with a hint of spiciness and bitterness, but also with an indescribable power.

Yang's face was a little red and she said to Gu Yu: "Drink the wine. Go back to your room and sleep quickly." Gu Yu returned to his room, looked at his sister-in-law sitting by the bed, took another sip of wine and said: "Sister-in-law, this is the ginseng wine I brewed myself. Do you want to try it?"

The sister-in-law didn't want to go to bed first, so she planned to wait until Gu Yu came back before sleeping.

When she heard this, she declined and said: "This wine is so expensive, how can I drink it? Let's leave it to my second uncle and my second aunt!"

Farmers don't earn much a year, just enough to support their families. Although she was an ignorant woman, she still knew that wine was expensive and good ginseng was even rarer.

Gu Yu smiled softly, took a sip and drank it himself, and said: "We are all a family, why should we be so polite. Sister-in-law, drink it quickly, we have to go to bed early!"

The eldest sister-in-law saw that Gu Yu was getting ready to take off her clothes and go to bed. She then looked at the wine and thought: Second aunt and the others had already rested. It would obviously not work to take this wine to the main room and pour it into a vat. If he didn't drink it, with such a small sip of wine, the smell of alcohol would have dissipated long ago by the time the sun came up.

He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, drank the wine in one breath, quickly took off his coat and lay down with Gu Yu.

Perhaps because of the magical power of spiritual energy contained in ginseng, or perhaps because of the effects of spiritual spring water, the four of them slept particularly calmly and sweetly that night.

When the sun shone all over the earth the next day, Gu Jianan was shocked to find that his wife had not returned yet.

When I came to the door of Gu Yu's house, I found that the sun had already risen very high, the second uncle's family had not gotten up yet, and the door was still locked from the inside.

He slammed the door vigorously and shouted: "Second uncle, second aunt, little sister, have you gotten up?"

When Gu Yu heard the knock on the door, he immediately opened his eyes and found that it was already broad daylight. He heard clearly who was knocking on the door and quickly opened the quilt and went to the ground.

At the same time, my sister-in-law woke up at the same time, rubbed her eyes, and found that the sun had risen, and exclaimed: "Oh! Why did you sleep so late!"

Gu Yu had already put on her clothes and replied: "I slept late last night and couldn't get up in the morning."

The elder sister-in-law was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that she had taken a sip of ginseng wine with her sister-in-law last night. Could it be that wine makes people sleep more soundly? That's right, ginseng is a precious medicinal material, and it makes sense that it can soothe the mind and help you sleep.

Gu Yu was not aware of his sister-in-law's inner drama, so he walked out of the room and opened the door. Gu Jian'an walked in and saw that Gu Yu had already gotten up. He breathed a sigh of relief: "I was scared to death. Why didn't you get up this morning?"

Gu Yu touched his nose and said, "I came back too late last night and was exhausted. Each of the four of us took a sip of ginseng wine and fell asleep in the morning."

Gu Jianan: "..."

Ginseng wine?
By the way, if it hadn't been for the ginseng slices from his second uncle yesterday, Gu Shishan might have bled to death.

Seeing my sister-in-law coming out, she joked: "Oh, I'm finally willing to give up."

The sister-in-law glared at him with a smile and annoyance, "I drank so much wine last night that I almost fell asleep." Then she said, "Why are you here?"

Gu Jianan: "..."

Why did he come here? Didn't his little sister come back last night and tell him that his wife went to look after the second uncle's house? When no one came back at dawn in the morning, he was worried that the four of them had fallen asleep and came to take a look.

Mrs. Yang opened the door of the main room at this time and came out. After a few words with a few people, she went to the kitchen to do her work.

Gu Jianan and his wife also went back.

Gu Yu waited for Gu Wu to come out and said what she had not finished last night, and said: "Dad, this is what I think. It is useless to hold too much money in my hand. I plan to buy a house in the town and rent it out. We go to collect rent every month, and we collect some rent back every month.”
