Chapter 69 Busy in full swing
After Gu Wu and Anji left, Yang and Gu Pan killed chickens to prepare the evening meal.

Gu Yu originally wanted to come over and help, but when she saw the water poured into the wooden basin and the chicken thrown in, a strong smell of blood hit her nostrils, and she suddenly felt uncomfortable and vomited.

Seeing that she was vomiting so badly, Mrs. Yang was very worried and said, "Oh! Why is she vomiting so violently all of a sudden?"

Gu Yu burst into tears and wiped her eyes, "Mom, help me pour a bowl of water to rinse my mouth."

Gu Pan had already poured out the water and stood aside, comforting him: "Rinse your mouth quickly." He then said: "Your mother and I are busy here, please take it easy and go to the room to rest for a while."

Gu Yu had been eating and drinking well for such a long time. They thought that these two children were good and sensible, and they knew they cared about their mother and did not bother them.

I didn't expect that I wouldn't vomit unless I vomited, but when I vomited, it was so scary.

After Gu Yu rinsed his mouth, he could smell the unpleasant smell from the yard. She shrugged her nose and couldn't tell whether it was the smell of shit or fish.

After catching my breath, I moved a chair to the door of the shop to bask in the sun. I saw someone carrying a basket of Qiang crisp plums and selling them, "Qiang crisp plums, Qiang crisp plums! Fresh Qiang crisp plums, five cents per catty..."

Qiang Crisp Plum has high nutritional value and is rich in carotene and vitamin C, which has many health benefits for the human body. It tastes sweet and crispy, with a slight bitter taste and a refreshing aftertaste.

There is one planted in the backyard of Gu Yu's house because she likes sweetness and doesn't like eating Qiang crisp plums.

In previous years, they were picked and sold in the town or dropped in the fields to be used as fertilizer. When she heard this sound, she couldn't help but think of the deliciousness of plums. She swallowed her saliva and said: "Vendor, come here."

He came over carrying a basket of rice and asked, "How many pounds does the girl need?"

"Can I try one?" Gu Yu asked, taking an emerald green Qiang crisp plum.

"Of course you can." Every household will grow some Qiang crisp plums and peaches for home use. Ordinary fruits in this season are not very expensive. If guests want to try them, they can taste them. The vendor said diligently.

Gu Yu took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the Qiang Crisp Plum, and took a bite. It tastes good, sweet, and much better than the fruit at home.

Feeling that he could eat a basketful, he said: "I want thirty kilograms, weigh it for me."

The hawker quickly put thirty kilograms of Qiang crispy rice in oil paper bags and said, "Guest, take it."

Gu Yu glanced at the scale and saw that the weight on the scale was no more or less than thirty kilograms. He went back to the shop and took a wooden basin to put it in. He paid fifty cash and secretly smacked his lips: This guy can't do it. For business, if she only buys one or two kilograms, it can be weighed down by the scale. If she buys thirty kilograms, the weight is not too much or too little, which is just enough.

Her first thought was that this guy couldn't make a fortune.

But what does it have to do with her whether people get rich or not? He took a basin of plums and put them in the yard, went to the kitchen and washed a large bowl, then sat on a chair and ate slowly.

Just as she was happily eating, a woman and a little boy passed by her door carrying a basket and shouted: "Selling pancakes! Selling pancakes!"

As the woman walked past, Gu Yu smelled the smell of sesame cakes and swallowed subconsciously: "Sesame cake seller, give me five cakes."

Mrs. Liu had never been to Gu Yu's shop. She only heard her husband say that the host and the others were doing business on this street. She turned around and saw Gu Yu said: "Host, it's you!"

Gu Yu: "..."

She didn't recognize the woman in front of her, but her face looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that this was the tenant who rented her house!

He smiled back and said, "It's me."

Mrs. Liu had already put down the basket on her shoulder, opened the cotton cloth covering the pancakes, took five pork pancakes and packed them, saying: "I made these myself. Please don't be dissatisfied and give them a try."

Liu's words meant that it was free of charge and free of charge.

As a landlord, Gu Yu thought he understood Yu Hua's family situation. The couple took their three children to make a living in the county town. He didn't take it immediately and asked: "How much silver is one!"

Mrs. Liu: "..."

They rented the house of Gu Yu's family. According to the previous host's idea, they were the only ones who had a filial role in eating the cake, and they would not pay a penny.

Just now, out of habit, I gave Gu Yu the best pancake in the basket.

Hearing her ask how much the money was, he said a little cautiously: "My wife made it by herself. Her craftsmanship is average. She can barely eat it. It only costs three cents a piece. I hope my host won't dislike it."

Three cents, that's why the pork cakes are sold at this price, like the pickled cabbage pancakes in the basket, the cabbage pancakes are only sold for one or two cents each.

Gu Yu took out fifteen cents and gave it to Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu panicked and said, "No, my host. This is a gift from my wife to my host."

She didn't dare to accept the money. It would be bad if Gu Yu secretly increased the house price behind his back.

Seeing Mrs. Liu's look, Gu Yu raised her eyebrows and quickly thought of some things she learned from the tenants when they rented a house.

Mrs. Liu must have taken her for Zhou Papi, who was greedy for petty gains, and said, "It's not easy for you and your wife to work hard outside with three children. You must not charge less money than you should."

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Liu still didn't dare to take the fifteen cents and said: "No, no, this is..."

Gu Yu and Mrs. Liu were not very familiar with each other. They had only met once or twice at most. He said this to her for the sake of the tenant.

Not wanting to push around with her, he gave Yu Dahai the money, took his cake and went to sit under the eaves.

When Mrs. Liu saw this, she was a little embarrassed and wanted to return the money to Gu Yu. However, she and Gu Yu were not familiar with each other, so she had to collect the money first and talk to the head of the house about today's events in the evening.

At about ten o'clock at noon, Cai Yang fried a tomato scrambled egg, a spicy chicken, spicy and sour potato shreds, and fried eggplant.

The dishes had just been fried. Gu Yu smelled the aroma and moved the chair back to the store. When he went to the kitchen and saw four dishes, his mouth watered unconsciously.

Gu Yu: "..."

Mom, it was so terrifying. She never thought that one day she would be like this.

Embarrassed to wipe the saliva from the corner of her mouth, Yang saw her swallowing and said with a smile: "Look at how greedy you are."

Gu Yu chuckled, "I don't know why you are so greedy?"

Gu Pan, who was serving dishes and setting the table, let them eat first and then set up the stall, laughed loudly, and talked about the scene when he was pregnant for the first time, "When I was pregnant with your eldest brother, I was also very greedy. I wanted to eat this and that. I want to eat. When I had your second brother, I wasn’t hungry anymore and wanted to sleep all day long. Didn’t you know that I would go to work in the fields and fall asleep standing up? If your grandma hadn’t watched me fall asleep , but something happened.”

Gu Yu's grandparents passed away ten years ago. She would have been eight or nine years old at that time and could already remember things.

When talking about grandparents, she would reply a few words from time to time. Yang also talked about her own experience: "When I have Xiaoyu, just like she is now, not only is she greedy, but she can also eat..."

The two experienced women chattered about their past experiences and burst out laughing when they talked about something funny, making the small kitchen extremely cozy.

After the food was served, Gu Yu devoured it and ate eight large bowls before he was full.

Because Gu Wu and Anji went back to the village, there were only three women in the shop. Gu Pan and Yang were busy preparing food, while Gu Yu collected the money and the dishes on the table.
