Chapter 92 The Third Plate of Lychees

Ever since they knew about the existence of Patriarch, Papa Gu and the others would rush to send them over whenever they had something good.Things were delivered frequently in the past, but not so frequently that people came over almost every day.And in the past, it was delivered to the store, but now it is often delivered to the home, and the nature is completely different.Many old employees of Chai Huo Stove felt that Jiang Shinian's identity must be special. He might be the son of a family friend of Gu's father, and he had to be a life-and-death friend, otherwise he couldn't explain it.

If it weren't for knowing that Gu's father and his wife had a good relationship, and that Gu Changsheng and Jiang Shinian also got along very well, it didn't look like they had a heart-to-heart relationship.Maybe some people can't help but think in a wrong way, thinking that this is Gu's father's illegitimate child.

Although the power of the autumn tiger is still fierce, the temperature has finally dropped gradually. Except when the sun is at its strongest at noon, it usually does not sweat.This weather is just right for eating lychees.The lychee is delicious, but if you eat too much, you will get angry. Father Gu didn't dare to give it away before, because he was afraid that the patriarch had disguised himself too thoroughly in order to pretend to be a human being, and he also disguised his physique in place.

Seeing that the weather was not so hot, Gu's father carefully selected two baskets of lychees and sent them over, and they also paired them with the newly harvested mung beans this year.Wouldn't it be nice to eat lychees and cook some mung bean soup to relieve the heat?

A basket of concubine smiles and a basket of cinnamon flavors are all good-tasting varieties of lychees.The lychees are almost out of the market now, and there are few such good-looking ones on the market.This stuff can't be kept for too long, it's easy to change the taste, Gu Changsheng kept most of it and planned to distribute it to the employees in the store, as well as the Yu family brothers.For the rest, peel off a fresh-keeping box and put it in the refrigerator to freeze. I plan to freeze it until I take a nap in the afternoon, and it is just right to eat with my grandfather.

Who knew that when he woke up, before he fell asleep and was in a daze, the doorbell rang first.

"I'll go and open the door." Hearing what the patriarch said, Gu Changsheng lay down again with peace of mind, intending to close his eyes and rest for another minute.The ambition of not letting the patriarch to work before has long been squandered by life.

Not to mention such trivial things as opening the door, occasionally getting up late in the morning, even breakfast is made by the patriarch.Originally, Gu Changsheng was still very determined, and felt that he could not let the patriarch come down to suffer and suffer, he had to make a good offering, so he took care of everything meticulously.Until one morning, when Gu Changsheng didn't get up on time, and Jiang Shinian got up to make breakfast, things changed.

The breakfast made by the grandfather is naturally full of color, fragrance and taste.You don't need to go closer to look at the dishes, just smelling it in other rooms, the aroma is already mouth-watering.Ever since Gu Changsheng ate it once, he couldn't stand his ground any longer.

As a cook, the biggest goal in life is to eat delicious food besides cooking delicious food.Gu Changsheng feels that his craftsmanship is good, but he also knows that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky.Not to mention far away, his father was firmly pressing him down.Although he imagined that the ancestor's cooking might be particularly delicious, Gu Changsheng never thought that it would be so delicious.It is not an exaggeration to say that it is delicious enough to swallow your tongue.

Thinking of having such a delicious meal again in the future, he couldn't help but stop Jiang Shinian.Isn’t it just cooking, good, good, do it if you want, isn’t it just open the door, let’s go, open it if you want.The patriarch can do whatever he wants, he is a junior, he just needs to be obedient, there is no need to stop him.Maybe that's the case, the patriarch's life will be happier.

Gu Changsheng successfully adjusted his mentality, and since then he has fallen into a downturn, living a beautiful life where he can stretch out his clothes to eat and open his mouth.

Standing outside the door was Yu Zhile, who had the key to the Gu family's gate.But since the last time he didn't say hello, he opened the door and came in by himself, and bumped into Jiang Shinian and Gu Changsheng busy in the kitchen, he was distracted for a moment, and almost thought he saw a young couple cooking together.Even if she later found out about the situation and understood that she had misunderstood, Yu Zhile did not dare to mess in again.

Even if Gu Changsheng didn't tell him the truth and only said that Jiang Shinian was the son of his father's friend.Because he didn't know the truth, Yu Zhile was very worried that if he came in casually, he would disturb his brother Gu chasing his wife.Also afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstanding.

What, you said you weren't chasing your wife?The same goes for chasing a husband, it's all about chasing after all.If Gu Changsheng had no feelings for him, Yu Zhile would be the first to not believe it.Without emotion, he can be so considerate. He even knows what kitchen utensils people need to use when cooking, and he will deliver them right away. The cooperation could not be better.Besides, he can let outsiders into the kitchen without feelings, and let them touch his precious kitchen utensils?

You know, he and Gu Changsheng grew up together, and Gu Changsheng disliked him getting in the way in the kitchen. Even though the kitchen is so big, he doesn't take up any space at all.Moreover, Gu Changsheng didn't let him touch the kitchen utensils. Of course there was a reason why he was a kitchen killer, but it was enough to explain the problem.

The most important thing is that when he saw Jiang Shinian was cooking, he was cutting vegetables with the kitchen knife that his brother Gu had inherited from his ancestors.

Yu Zhile is clear about the fact that Gu Changsheng's kitchen knife is a magic weapon passed down from his ancestors.It is said that the instrument and its master have the same mind, if Gu Changsheng did not like him, and the instrument also knew that he would be its other master in the future, how could the instrument be so obedient?

He also chops vegetables. He used to be curious, but he could only touch them, and he couldn't even lift them.Jiang Shinian looked like an ordinary person, but he was able to use the magic weapon as an ordinary kitchen knife as an ordinary person. It must be that he, Brother Gu, had tampered with it and taught the kitchen knife secretly.

Moreover, he accidentally saw Brother Gu and Jiang Shinian sleeping in the same bed.How much is a bed, only tens of thousands of things, there is no possibility that you can't afford it.

Although there is only one room in Gu Changsheng's house, the room is large enough to accommodate two beds.Even if he can't let go, his house still has a room, and the relationship between the two families is so good, it's not a problem for Jiang Shinian to live in his house for a year or so.

Tsk, it's not the idea of ​​getting the moon first.By the way, sharing the same bed is also a bonus.

Seeing through this point, Yu Zhile, who felt that he knew the truth, not only quickly developed a good habit of ringing the doorbell to enter the door, but also had an extremely enthusiastic attitude towards Jiang Shinian.

Falling in love with the same sex, it's hard enough for him, Brother Gu, he must not hold back, not only will not hold back, but also be a good assist.Yu Zhile, who was thinking this way, originally didn't want to come and disturb the relationship between the two of them.However, the smell of the food was so delicious that he couldn't control his legs.

Every time he smells it, he is like a summoned beast who has heard the call, and he can't help but appear immediately.Yu Zhile looked apologetically before struggling to get out of bed, and glanced at Gu Changsheng who walked out of the room in a daze.He secretly promised in his heart that he would disappear immediately after eating and would never be an eye-catching light bulb.

Before going to bed, when Gu Changsheng was peeling the lychees, Jiang Shinian had already washed the mung beans and put them on the pot.After the porridge is cooked, take a nap, just boil the mung beans until they bloom, stir them with some rock sugar, and let them dry to eat.

The smell of mung beans had already wafted out half an hour ago, and Yu Zhile waited for half an hour on purpose to make sure that the mung bean porridge must be cooked, and then knocked on the door.

Even eating and taking, Yu Zhile packed a portion for his brother when he left, and brought a basket of lychees along the way.

"Remember to put the mung bean soup in the refrigerator when you go back, otherwise it might spoil at night." Jiang Shinian reminded.He also had an impression of the two Yu family brothers. After getting along with each other during this period of time, he also knew that the Yu family's older brother was busy with work and worked overtime until ten o'clock every day.

Cook delicious and considerate.Brother Gu has really good eyesight.Yu Zhile nodded and left with his things.Careless, he never thought about why Jiang Shinian's cooking skills are so high, so much better than Gu Changsheng, the successor of the Kitchen God.

After eating mung bean soup, I pulled out the frozen lychees from the refrigerator and ate them.Gu Changsheng was going to sleep again, and when he got up to deliver lychees to the shop assistant, the doorbell rang again.

Looking back at Changsheng who hadn't been conquered by the Sandman, he took the initiative to open the door.

"Mr. Gao, what is this?"

The person called Mr. Gao was a little embarrassed, and he was holding a bucket in his hand.

Mr. Gao just moved in recently, just when Gu Changsheng thought that the other party was a new resident, and came here specially to bring snacks and food to the neighbors to connect with each other, he heard Mr. Gao stammering: "I heard that Mr. Gu is a good cook? "

After saying the first sentence, it is not so difficult to say the following words.With a broken face, Mr. Gao explained: "Didn't I just move to a new house? My sister brought her children here today to take a look. She also wants to buy our house. The main reason is that our community has a good environment and a good location." Not bad, and there are excellent people like you as neighbors, who can set a good example for children."

Mr. Gao flattered Gu Changsheng in a small way, but Gu Changsheng was completely puzzled by what he heard, so he could only ask, "What's the matter with you?"

Being looked at by Gu Changsheng with straight-talking eyes, Mr. Gao was even more embarrassed: "Well, the smell of your cooking is so delicious, the children in the family have been clamoring for mung bean porridge after smelling it. We really can't help it." Yes There was really no way. The child said he wanted to eat it, so they ordered takeaway on the spot. As a result, the mung bean soup delivered to the child was unwilling to eat it after taking a sip, saying it was not delicious.

They thought that the mung bean soup outside was cutting corners, so the taste was not good, so they had to buy mung beans themselves and cook them.After tossing and tossing for a long time, it was finally cooked, and the smell was okay. Who knows if the child ate it or said it was not delicious.

They thought it was really not tasty, so they ate a bowl specially, and they all thought it was okay, home-cooked.But the child just said it was unpalatable, and wanted to eat the one that smelled the fragrance before.It's all mung bean porridge, no matter how delicious it is, how can it be delicious?You said it was hypocritical, but he beat and scolded, there was really no other way, the child was crying so hard that his voice was almost hoarse, he really felt sorry for his nephew, so he had to come here with the cheek.

Mr. Gao talked about the matter, and at the end, afraid of being misunderstood as taking advantage, he quickly said: "I brought the chicken feet in black bean sauce from the imperial dining room. If you have left mung bean soup at home, I would like to exchange it with you."

The Imperial Dining Room is the most famous restaurant besides Gu's firewood stove.He originally wanted to order the takeaway of the firewood stove, but this one didn't deliver at all, and he couldn't buy it in the store. He heard that it would take more than a month to wait in line, so he couldn't afford to wait, so he had to settle for the next best thing.Fortunately, the name of the Imperial Dining Room is quite resounding.Not long after moving here, Mr. Gao, who didn't know Gu Changsheng's identity at all, felt that if he exchanged the snacks from the imperial dining room for a bowl of mung bean porridge made by his neighbor, he would not let the other party suffer.

Hearing this, Gu Changsheng glanced at the thermos in Mr. Gao's hand. Obviously, what was in it should be the chicken feet in black bean sauce.It was specially packed in an insulated bucket, probably thinking that after taking out the chicken feet, it would be convenient for him to directly put mung bean soup in it.

Children like to eat, and it is normal to be greedy.What's more, the mung bean porridge made by the patriarch himself, the gods can't sit still after smelling it.Even he himself couldn't control it just now, he just drank two big bowls even though he wasn't hungry.Gu Changsheng understood very well, not to mention that the other party had prepared something in exchange, even if it was empty-handed, he was willing to give it away.

"It happens to be at home, so come in and have a seat, I'll pack it for you." Gu Changsheng took the thermos from Mr. Gao's hand.Seeing this, Mr. Gao breathed a sigh of relief.In order to rush back as soon as possible, facing Gu Changsheng's invitation, he repeatedly waved his hands: "No, it's troublesome to change shoes, I'll just wait here."

That's fine.Gu Changsheng didn't close the door, he went back with the thermos bucket, and soon came out with the thermos bucket.Mr. Gao took the thermos bucket filled with mung bean soup, smiled gratefully, and hurried back with his things.

When I entered the house, the little magic star at home was already crying so hard.Mr. Gao walked over quickly, put the thermos bucket on the coffee table, and picked up his nephew: "See what delicious food uncle brought you back?"

"Dangdangdang, you have been thinking about mung bean porridge for a long time!" Holding his nephew to the coffee table, Mr. Gao motioned him to open it and have a look.

The child choked twice, then hiccupped again, and then he recovered, stopped crying, and opened the thermos bucket by himself without help.After discovering that it was indeed mung bean porridge, the child jumped up happily and gave his uncle a big one: "Uncle is the best, uncle is the best, I like uncle the most!"

"Just give me the soup." Mr. Gao reached out and knocked on the forehead of his nephew, and the child was not angry, and happily ran to the kitchen to find a spoon and eat mung bean soup.

"If you want me to say that you shouldn't bother him just now. Let him cry, and he should stop when he's tired of crying. Brother, you spoil him too much." A young woman said.

Hearing this, Mr. Gao said nonchalantly: "You can eat it if you want, it looks really delicious. Besides, don't you feel sorry for him crying like that?" Now he looks cold, and he is more anxious than anyone else just now. .

After exposing his sister's disguise, fearing that she would become angry, Mr. Gao quickly changed the subject: "You have also seen the house, what do you think?"

"If you still want to move here, buy it quickly. The houses here are in short supply, and they will be gone if it's too late. Besides, if you move here, I can take care of you in the same neighborhood or even the same building."

Mr. Gao also wants to live closer to his younger sister. His family has a small family and a close relationship. The siblings grew up together. After his younger sister got married, he always felt that there were fewer people in his family.I always worry that my sister will have a bad life if she is alone in someone else's house.Fortunately, the brother-in-law seems to be reliable, and he treats his sister sincerely, otherwise he would be even more worried.

"Besides, housing prices have been rising all the time. The location here is good, and the house type is good. Even if you don't live here, you can still buy it as an investment. It's better than saving in a bank."

The young woman was already very moved, but upon hearing this, she was even more shaken: "I have to go back and discuss it with Shucheng."

"It needs to be discussed." Mr. Gao nodded. After all, buying a house is not buying clothes. You can buy it casually: "But if you really want to buy it, you have to hurry up."

"By the way, is the money enough?" The house here is not cheap. Although he gave a lot of money when he was married, Mr. Gao is still a little worried that his sister will be short of money.

"Enough." The young woman smiled and said sweetly: "Shucheng said, if the money is not enough, he will come and find a way, so I don't have to worry about it."

"Brother, you have already helped me a lot, and you just bought another apartment, and you probably don't have any money left, so let me do it myself this time, I believe in Shucheng."

"Well, if it's not enough to remember to talk, I still have some money." Mr. Gao couldn't deny it, but just emphasized again.

"Brother, don't worry, Shu Chengcai was promoted some time ago, and his salary has also increased a lot. In addition to our previous savings, it should be enough." Although the young woman doesn't care about money, but how much money she has at home I probably also know that, if I count it with my fingers, it is almost the same.

"I'll take you back home. If it's late, I think Shucheng will be in a hurry." Seeing that his nephew had finished eating, Mr. Gao saw that it was not early, and he was afraid that it would be dangerous if he was late, so he reminded him.

The young woman nodded. In fact, she had the same plan. However, the young woman said, "I'll just go back by myself. It's not dark yet, and the bus will be fast. Brother, don't you want to go back to the company?"

After being told by his sister, Mr. Gao thought about it, so after reminding his sister to be careful on the road, he let her take the child away.

It never occurred to him that not insisting on sending his sister home would be the one thing he regretted the most.

After returning home, the young woman stepped on the ground and fell down the stairs when she went to the top floor to dry the clothes after washing her clothes at night. She died directly without any chance of rescue.When she died, the child was even with her, watching her mother fall to her death.The originally lively, cheerful, laughing and fussy child was so frightened that he stopped talking.

"Back when I handed over my sister to you, how did you promise me? You promised to take good care of her, and that's how you took care of her? Why did you let her go to the top floor to dry clothes alone, and the balcony can't do it?" Mr. Gao asked his brother-in-law. .

He regretted not sending his sister back that day to stop all this, but he regretted marrying his sister to such a poor boy even more.

Originally, his sister lived in a high-end apartment, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that her ten fingers are not in the sun.The clothes are sent for dry cleaning, and they never stick to their hands, and even the washing machine is rarely touched. Now, for such a man, I have done everything I didn't do before, and now I don't say anything, and I lost my life.

If she was still living in the original house and the high-end community had complete security measures, how could such a thing happen.

After his sister married this man, she followed him to the place where he lived.It's not that he didn't marry with a good house, but this man just felt that when he got married, she was the one who married in, not him Fang Shucheng, so the new house should be his family's.

For Fang Shucheng's self-esteem, her sister insisted on carrying his objection, left the well-furnished house unused, and moved in.

If I had known earlier, it would be better to find someone to marry!

Fang Shucheng's new house is that kind of old-fashioned building.There is no elevator, and there are no guardrails on the top floor.There are eight floors in total, and the platform above the top floor is public, with shelves on it, and occasionally someone will hang quilts there or something.

"How many people do you have in your family, how many clothes can you have, and the balcony is so big that it's not enough to dry?"

"That's what I said, and I stopped it, but Lan Lan said that she wanted to take advantage of the sun these few days to wash and dry the winter clothes, so that it will be easy to wear when winter comes." It's autumn now, clothes It has been pressed in the closet for several months, and there is always a musty smell.Many people will choose to wash and dry it before wearing it.Fang Shucheng expressed regret: "If I knew this would happen, I would stop her no matter what."

"When the clothes can't be washed, I don't feel bad when I buy new ones. Lan Lan is the person I love the most. If she dies, I feel no less heartbroken than you. What's the use of accusing me?" Heartache is heartache, Being scolded by his brother-in-law pointing his nose like this without saving any face, Fang Shucheng's face was very ugly: "If it's not for Lan Lan and the child's sake, I can bear you with your bad temper?"

"You still dare to mention the child?" Mr. Gao's face darkened: "Lan Lan's accident was an accident, and I don't need to pursue it with you. But the child was scared, and you didn't even coax him. What's the reason? Going to work is so important. More important than my own child? I was so blind that I agreed to marry my sister to you."

Hearing his brother-in-law mentioning this, Fang Shucheng's face was a little embarrassed, but soon, he poked his neck and said: "What if I don't go to work? Lan Lan is gone, and now the family points at me to make money alone. I don't go to work, my child." What will I eat and drink in the future?" What's more, he is not sick or in pain, isn't he just scared, and he will be able to recover by himself in two days.No matter how old the child is, he still needs to be coaxed.He almost died when he fell into a cesspit as a child and was not frightened.What kind of psychological quality is not like him at all.

Fang Shucheng didn't say the latter words, fearing that his brother-in-law would be furious.But it doesn't mean that Mr. Gao can't see it.

His expression is so obvious that even a blind person can see it.

Mr. Gao was anxious: "How old is he? Five years old. A five-year-old child saw his mother fall to death with his own eyes, leaving a psychological shadow. You don't take him to see a psychiatrist, and you don't accompany him. How can you be a father? There is no money at home. , no money, shit!"

"When my younger sister got married, I spent almost 30 yuan on money alone, not counting real estate, storefronts, and gold jewelry. Now you tell me that I have no money to raise a child, so I have to leave the child who needs comfort and go to work?"

Paralyzed, Mr. Gao was talking, his eyes couldn't help but searched for the tool at hand, he had to beat the other party today.

"That's not mine." Fang Shucheng said directly before he realized what was wrong.

Those were all pre-marital property, and he couldn't move them at all.If you really want to spend it, you can't just spend what you earn.

In that case, what's wrong with him going to work?Don't let him go to work, ask him to ask for leave, that's fine, just give him the inheritance, let alone leave it to the children.If it wasn't for his brother-in-law's connections, would he need to be so restrained?
