Chapter 137 Can't do it?Then be hungry (1)
Gu Xiaobei nodded: "Okay, I'll see you off."

Gu Xiaobei sent Ouyang Qi out of the restaurant, and seeing Ouyang Qi turned around, she said hesitantly: "Please don't tell him, I already know that he helped me."

"Okay!" Ouyang Qi turned around and smiled brightly at her, then turned and strode away.

"Brother San, do you know where Chen Jiu's house is?" After Ouyang Qi left, Gu Xiaobei pulled Gu Sanlin into a corner and asked about it secretly.

"Of course I know." Gu Sanlin looked at Gu Xiaobei seriously: "But why are you asking about this?"

"The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy can win all battles. I want to visit his family secretly, maybe there will be unexpected gains." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile.

Gu Sanlin felt that Gu Xiaobei's actions might be useful for future affairs, he pondered for a moment before saying: "Then I'll go with you, anyway, the restaurant is not very busy now, I asked Brother Nuomi to help the second brother look at the restaurant That's it."

"That's fine. After giving him more experience now, there will be more people to help you manage the restaurant, otherwise you will be exhausted after being so busy every day." Gu Xiaobei nodded, and then told Gu Sanlin: "Third brother, we are here secretly. Go, don’t let others know, especially Chen Jiu!”

"I know." Gu Sanlin nodded.

The siblings looked at each other, then turned back to the center of the restaurant hall.

"Brother Nuomi, it's the end of the year. My little sister and I went out to buy some new year's goods and brought them home at night. Please help my second brother watch the restaurant more." Gu Sanlin called Brother Nuomi to him and ordered.

"Okay, don't worry, the two bosses, I will definitely help the second boss look after the restaurant." Brother Nuomi nodded confidently.

Gu Sanlin and Gu Xiaobei didn't tell Gu Erye, anyway, it's better if one less person knows about it.The two of them bought some New Year's goods on the street and went to Chen Jiu's house with them.

"Is this the home?" Gu Xiaobei looked at the small courtyard in front of him, and asked Gu Sanlin.

"Exactly." Gu Sanlin nodded, reached out and knocked on the courtyard door: "Knock, knock!"

"Here we come!" A gentle female voice sounded from inside, and the door was opened in a short while, and a kind-hearted woman stood in front of the two with a sweet smile. She was wearing a simple skirt, but her whole body exuded A soft and beautiful temperament, which makes people can't help but get close.

Looking at the charming woman in front of him, Gu Xiaobei was taken aback for a moment. He never thought that a smooth person like Chen Jiu would have such a relative with a completely different temperament from him.

"Who are you looking for?" Before Gu Xiaobei came back to his senses, the woman asked, her voice filled the air with Jiangnan's unique graceful voice, which made people feel soft in their hearts.

Gu Sanlin smiled and pointed to the things on the ground: "We are the owners of Brothers and Sisters Restaurant, and it's almost Chinese New Year now, Master Chen Jiu has been busy with the restaurant and there is no time, so we bought some things for Chinese New Year Look at you, are you Chen Jiu's family?"

"I'm Chen Jiu's wife, Liu Shi." The woman's smile widened to three points, and she hurriedly backed away to let them in: "Come in, please!"

Gu Xiaobei and Gu Sanlin picked up the things on the ground and followed her into the courtyard, walking all the way to the main room.

"You are too polite. It is already a great honor for us to come to see us, and you have brought so many things." Mrs. Liu invited them to the main room to sit down, and then said to them with a smile.

"What's the matter, Master Chen has worked so hard for our restaurant, we should give something away." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile.

"You guys sit for a while and I'll make a pot of tea." Liu Shi smiled at them and went out to the kitchen.

"Excuse me."

After Mrs. Liu left, Gu Xiaobei and Gu Sanlin had the leisure to look around the courtyard. The courtyard looked small and shabby from the outside, but the inside was completely different. The inside was neat and clean. It is fully furnished, although it is not as good as a rich family, but compared to other ordinary people, it is already a wealthy family.

After the two looked at each other for a while, Mrs. Liu came back.

"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long." Mrs. Liu came in with a teapot and said with a smile.

"It's okay." Gu Sanlin smiled and shook his head.

After pouring the tea to Gu Xiaobei and Gu Sanlin, Mrs. Liu sat down with her, and said with a smile, "Thank you so much, I'm busy recently, and I don't have time to buy new year's goods. I didn't expect you to deliver them to my door."

"It's nothing, it's just that we came here without telling Master Chen. You must not tell him about our gift for the New Year, otherwise he will definitely give us the money for buying these things when we get paid next time. I'm uneasy, after all, the big guy has done so much work for the restaurant, but we can't express our gratitude." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile.

Gu Xiaobei looked at Liu Shi expectantly with wide almond eyes, and Liu Shi's heart softened. He just felt that this little girl was very similar to his lovely sister, so he couldn't help but smiled and nodded: "I promise you all. Sometimes I will tell the head of the house that I went out to buy the new year’s goods by myself, and the money is in my hands anyway, and if I say I bought it, he will believe it.”

"Sister-in-law is really understanding." Gu Xiaobei looked around and asked in doubt: "Is your husband and wife the only one in your house? Why don't you see other people?"

"My husband and I have separated from our family, and we moved here by ourselves. Apart from our husband and wife, there are two children and mother-in-law who live with us. The eldest son is six years old and has already been sent to school. The younger son She just turned one year old, and my mother-in-law took her in her room. My mother-in-law is a little deaf and can't hear people anymore. I was worried that I would offend the two guests, so I didn't let her come out to meet you." Mrs. Liu took a sip of tea , smiled and said: "If you want to see her, I can go and ask her to come out to meet you."

"No, don't bother her old man." Gu Xiaobei waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile, "I heard that your family also raises some pigs. Why don't you see them? Are there other livelihoods besides these livelihoods?"

"The pigs are raised in the backyard, and there are few people in the family. As a woman, I can't help much, so I have to feed some pigs every day. Other than that, it's the wages that the head of the family gets from working in the restaurant. , and no other income, fortunately, the head of the family brings back the leftovers from the restaurant every day, so I don’t need to cut pigweed to feed. Speaking of which, I have to thank the two bosses for letting him take the leftovers from the restaurant Bring back the leftovers." Liu said, standing up again and bowing to them.

"You don't need to be too polite." Gu Xiaobei hurriedly stood up and helped her sit down again, and said with a smile: "Anyway, those leftovers are a waste, so it would be good for you to bring them back to raise some pigs."

After leaving Chen Jiu's house, Gu Xiaobei and Gu Sanlin were a little silent.
