Chapter 25

Gu Sheng didn't know that he was the culprit for his younger brother's indifference, so he nodded appreciatively.

"It's good if you can figure it out, anyway, my sister will protect you."

"Well, sister, people's hearts are really complicated."

Little girl Gu Li thought about it and came to such a conclusion, it's better for her sister, she will stay by her side forever in the future.

"Don't think about that, help my sister dry the bamboo shoots."

Gu Sheng took the two children to wash the bamboo shoots first. Fortunately, there is a well in the yard, otherwise it would be really troublesome to go out to fetch water.

She washed more than half of it and put it in the backyard to dry, leaving a small half to fry and go to the town to try her luck tomorrow.

But cooking so many bamboo shoots requires oil and salt, and she couldn't get it out, so she had to ask Fu Jin to borrow it.

"Brother Fu, can you lend me some oil and salt?"

Gu Sheng was a little embarrassed, and then remembered that oil and salt are things that money can't buy in this day and age.

Special tickets are required, so every household is very economical.

Originally, I thought that Fu Jin would refuse, but I didn't expect that Fu Jin went directly into the house and took the salt and oil jars, and then said domineeringly.

"I'll give you points for how much you need."

Although he didn't go to work, his family's conditions were not bad, and his family in Beijing would send him a check and money.

So life is not bad, and he himself goes to the mountains from time to time to get some things and sell some money quietly.

Gu Sheng was a little embarrassed, and said while holding the oil jar and salt jar at home.

"Just borrow a little bit, and I'll return it to you when I have it."

"No, you use it first, and then talk about it when you have it."

Fu Jin generously divided Gu Sheng's half, and he knew what their family's conditions were like.

"Thank you, Brother Fu."

Gu Sheng was grateful in his heart, and he was no longer polite. He just asked his younger brother to give Fu Jin a big bowl after he went home and cooked the bamboo shoots.

When Gu Ming staggered in with a vegetable bowl, Fu Jin was in a daze.

"How did you come?"

"Brother Fu, this is my sister's fried bamboo shoots. It's delicious."

Gu Ming put the vegetable bowl on the table, waited politely for Fu Jin to put the vegetables in his own bowl, and then returned his own bowl to himself.

Bowls are also precious things these days, and you can't eat without them.

Although Fu Jin was very suspicious, she quickly put the food into her own bowl and returned the bowl to Gu Ming.

"Is your family out of food?"

Otherwise, how could they find such unpalatable bamboo shoots? Fu Jin sighed inwardly. If Uncle Gu was still alive, these three children would not be so pitiful.

Gu Ming was also worried when he thought of the almost empty rice vat at home, but he was embarrassed to ask for something from Brother Fu.

So she pursed her lips and said, "Also, my sister is very capable. She cooked dried vegetables and bamboo shoots, enough for the three of us."

"Well, go back quickly."

Fu Jin rubbed Gu Ming's little head, already thinking about what excuse to use to send them some food.

Looking at the bright red bamboo shoots fried on the table, Fu Jin took out two big steamed buns. It just happened that I was too lazy to cook wild vegetables today, so let's just eat them.

He picked up a chopstick of bamboo shoots and put them on the steamed buns, then took a big bite, unexpectedly it was not as bitter as he imagined.

On the contrary, it was very delicious. Fu Jin's eyes lit up, and he quickly dipped the bamboo shoots in steamed buns and ate half full.

He didn't expect this girl to have such a good skill. It seems that the life of the three children of the Gu family will not be too hard in the future.

Fu Jin put the remaining bamboo shoots into the cupboard, planning to eat them at night.

Finally something delicious, he has to save some, otherwise he can only eat unpalatable wild vegetables.
