Life in a quiet village in Xianshan

Gu Siwei returned to the workroom carrying the bedside.

The studio is a big house, built out of the dormitories of several old men. There are three rooms in total, all of which are large spaces. One is You Xugang's studio, one is Lu Yan's painting studio, and the other is a tool room. .

Now Gu Siwei returned to You Xugang's workshop carrying the bedside.

"What's wrong?" You Xugang asked curiously when he saw Gu Siwei carrying something back.

Gu Siwei sighed: "My wife won't let me, saying that I'm used to sleeping in the original bed and won't let her change."

"If you don't want to change it, don't let it change. The bed you are sleeping on now is very good. The log style is full of freedom and ease. Although this thing is complicated and the materials are expensive, it has lost its naturalness. Yan Qiu's The aesthetics have not gone astray, but your aesthetics have lost some value," You Xugang said.

Gu Siwei said: "I'm just a layman, forget it, if that's the case then I'll put it away."

After thinking for a while, Gu Siwei thought that this set of furniture should not be placed here, but should be placed in the Hong Kong City. Thinking of the Hong Kong City, Gu Siwei began to think about it. Now he has a lot of houses. , but he feels a little dissatisfied with the current house.

Why are you dissatisfied? They are all old houses bought by other people. Although the construction is quite good, Gu Siwei always feels that his style preferences are not shown.

Rich people, nothing matters at the end of the day. When I had no money before, I didn't see Gu Siwei talking about his style or preferences. Now that he has a lot of money in his pocket, all kinds of ideas come to him.

While working, I was thinking about whether to get another piece of land and build a small building that I was satisfied with. While I was thinking about it, it was time for lunch.

You Xugang was concentrating on his work, while Gu Siwei lost track of time while thinking about things, so neither of them noticed that it was time to eat.

"Brother, Grandpa You, you two have eaten. You can do this after you finish eating."

Sicui stood at the door and saw the two of them still working. She smiled and shouted to them.

A few years have passed, and Sicui has become somewhat of a grown-up girl, but she is not very tall. Now she is just over 1.6 meters tall. Of course, among women today, Sicui is no longer short.

But Gu Siwei was dissatisfied. He felt that his girl should grow to about 1.75 meters.

Sicui was still not fat, and her height of 1.6 meters was only less than 90 pounds, which gave Hu Yanqiu, the sister-in-law, a headache.

It was really not that Gu Siwei and his wife treated her harshly, but that Sicui just didn't grow fat, and Tao Yisheng gave her several prescriptions but had no effect.

As for Western medicine, the doctors at the factory have long been defined as quacks by Gu Siwei, so naturally there is nothing they can do about it.

As for appearance, Sicui can only be said to be above average, relatively good-looking. In terms of personality, she has a bit of the heroic spirit of Hu Yanqiu, and she is strict in everything she does.

Sicui now wears a Hu Lan head, capable and refreshing, wearing a crimson jacket, black trousers, and a pair of lace-up sneakers.

Youxugang put down what he was holding, smiled at Sicui and asked, "Have you all eaten?"

"What time is it? Look, it's twelve o'clock. Why don't you eat?"

Sicui clicked on the watch on her wrist and smiled at Youxugang.

Why does Sicui have a watch? Isn’t that nonsense? Is it strange that Gu Siwei has a watch on Sicui’s wrist? It’s not just Sicui, everyone in Lao Gu’s family now has a watch, and they don’t know how to look at the sun every day. Why would a family that can live a living need so many watches?

You Xu just looked at the watch on his hand and realized that it was really time to eat.

So the two of them put down what they were doing and followed Sicui to the small canteen to eat.

Now there is a special small dining room in Gu Siwei's house. The room used is a dormitory separated by the old men. This thing is only used when the weather is very cold. When the weather gets warm, everyone eats with bowls in their hands. The dining room If there is no dining room, it is not that important.

Today is still a big pot dish, but with a different twist. Today is stewed fish. In addition to the fish, there are about a dozen thick slices of pork belly in the pot. In addition, there are three items: tofu, vermicelli and Chinese cabbage. set.

Heavy oil red sauce is a home-cooked dish. A few decades later, some people may still complain about this kind of food, but now that you can eat like this and have enough money, you won't have the shame to complain about the food.

Gu Siwei, like everyone else, had a bowl of rice in his hand and a small bowl of vegetables in front of him, sitting on a long stool and eating slowly.

It was very quiet during the meal. Even the six troublemakers from Gu Siwei's family were eating their meals honestly at this moment, not daring to cause any trouble.

Eat without talking or sleep without speaking. This is Hu Yanqiu's requirement for children, and it also applies to adults.

Gu Siwei was full from a bowl of rice, so he washed his dishes, put them back in the kitchen, poured himself a pot of tea, sat under the camphor tree at the door, and slowly sipped the tea.

As the number of people gradually increased after dinner, a group of old men sat beside Gu Siwei. Each of them had a small bamboo chair and each held a large tea jar. They were either playing chess or chatting.

Gu Siwei did not join the team playing chess or bragging. He sipped tea and hummed to himself, and then admired the flowering fruit trees surrounding his field.

It was early spring, and most of the flowers, such as plum blossoms and pear blossoms, were in bloom. However, in the fruit forest of Gu Siwei's house, the most luxuriant and prosperous flowers were not these flowers, but cherry blossoms.

The cherry flowers grown by Gu Siwei's family are not the common white or pink, but a more gorgeous orange-yellow color, which is very bright and conspicuous.

The flowers are very large, twice as big as ordinary cherry flowers, so from a distance, there are almost no green leaves on the trees in the cherry forest. They are all clusters of orange-yellow flowers, crowding the entire branch. He couldn't see his head or even the trunk of the tree clearly. All he could see was a bright orange color.

Zhou Guangxian was watching everyone playing cards. He turned around and saw Gu Siwei looking at the cherry blossoms there in a daze, and said, "Don't look, there must be a lot of cherries today. Take a look at these flowers."

The mold peaches have already borne fruit. In fact, they have borne fruit two or three years ago. However, there are not many fruits. The tree is small, but as time goes by, the fruit trees are getting bigger and taller. Now It has grown to more than three meters high, and naturally more flowers bloom. With more flowers, more fruits will naturally be produced.

That's why Zhou Guangxian said that there must be a lot of cherries this year.

Before Gu Siwei could say anything, Lu Yan, who was playing Paike, threw out the cards in his hand first, and then said: "There are too many cherries. I think there should be more kiwis. There are only a few of them now." , the fruit produced is not enough for the monkeys to eat, I didn’t even enjoy it last year.”

How could there be so little fruit in Gu Siwei's house, but when it came to the top products, there were definitely only two: one was cherries, and the other was kiwi.

There is no way, this is the resentment that Gu Siwei brought back from the previous era.

Others are like apples, peaches, etc., which are larger and sweeter, and not too out of the ordinary.

But there is absolutely nothing wrong with cherries and kiwis. This is not just a matter of size, but not only are they big, they also taste better, not to mention their appearance.

The normal size of the cherries produced by the cherry trees in Gu Siwei's family is slightly smaller than a table tennis ball, and almost as big as an ordinary apricot.

The whole body is purple and black, and there will be a light layer of natural fruit wax on the peel. You can easily rub it with your fingers to remove the fruit wax. After removing it, just rub it with your hands, and the surface of the fruit will be extremely smooth. It can reflect light and vaguely illuminate people's shadows.

The taste of the pulp is a different kind of sweet, without any sourness at all. The sweetness has a faint floral aroma. Gu Siwei doesn't know how to describe this aroma. It is quiet and peaceful.

The kiwi fruit is naturally large in size, with smooth skin and thin peel. When the peel is ripe, the flesh inside is golden yellow. Close to the core, the flesh has rose-red stripes radiating from the inside out, half of which penetrates into the pulp. It disappeared without a trace, but there was no trace of rose-red inside, but emerald green, like an embedded emerald.

Gu Siwei's kiwi fruit weighs about 170 grams, and the large fruit weighs about 200 grams.

The shape is slightly larger at both ends and slightly tapered in the middle, like the old pillows used in the countryside here, so it is called pillow peach.

As for the two kinds of fruits, they each have their fans, and of course people like Gu Siwei are more likely to like them, as long as they are fruits.

"Then plant two more this year," Gu Siwei said casually.

"Where to plant? And cut down the trees?" After Youxugang finished speaking, he played a pair of kings in his hand.

As soon as he hit the ball, he was jumped by Yu Yingzhi from the opposite side with a pair of 2s.

"Me and your family, what are you going to do to kill me? Will you beat me?" You Xugang asked Yu Yingzhi.

"If he doesn't kill, I will kill him. You think a pair of kings is big. Look at the cards that came down. The big one hasn't come down yet," Lu Yan said to You Xugang.

Gu Siwei felt that these guys were really noisy. They were blushing and having thick necks while playing poker. They were not young yet, yet they were still so aggressive.

So I moved the chair a little outside, and continued to lie down, sipping my tea and admiring my flowers.

After drinking a pot of tea, an hour and a half had passed. Gu Siwei lazily stood up from his chair, preparing to go to the workroom to mess with his furniture.

As he was carrying a chair and preparing to leave, he heard Yang Chuanwu's voice.

Gu Siwei wondered: Are Caohua and Diangang so free today? They sent Song Rui here in the morning, and now they have sent Yang Chuanwu away. Are these two people now renting out in the water?

"Fourth dimension, fourth dimension!"

Yang Chuanwu waved to Gu Siwei and said hello.

Gu Siwei asked loudly: "What brought you here? Have you eaten?"

"Eat, how could you not have eaten at this time? I came here to discuss something with you." Yang Chuanwu came over, pulled up a chair, sat down, and motioned for Gu Siwei to sit over as well.

Gu Siwei took a look, filled the empty kettle with water, poured Yang Chuanwu a cup of tea, and then started chatting.
