In the book, the female supporting role dreams of being an idle fish

Chapter 247: First Day of the 2nd Month

Lightweight and profitable.

Gu Lixia also fell asleep.

Fortunately, Jiang Wen was quiet and didn't make any noise that night.

No vomiting, no throwing a tantrum.

Gu Lixia hot milk.

Then I went to see Jiang Wen, who was sleeping soundly.

There was a smell of alcohol in the room. Gu Lixia opened the balcony door, the window, and the door.

I went to the sink, took a towel, turned on the hot water, wet it, and then put the hot towel directly on my face and neck.

After a while, Jiang Wen finally woke up and looked around. "When did we get back yesterday? I have a headache."

"Get downstairs, change your clothes, brush your teeth, and come out later to have a glass of honey water and some milk." Gu Lixia helped Jiang Wen up, put him on the sink, and went out.

Jiang Wen washed up and smelled his own scent.

Get some clothes and take a shower.

Then, put the clothes you take off into the washing machine.

Bed sheets, quilt covers, pillowcases, pillowcases.

Take them all off and throw them in the washing machine.

Go into the restaurant, sit down and drink honey water.

Finish that small cup.

Then drink milk.

Seeing Gu Lixia drawing lines and writing numbers on a piece of paper, he asked curiously what she was doing.

Gu Lixia continued, "Measure the children's heights. I see they've all grown. Xiu'er has grown almost 5cm and should be around 140cm now. Huainan has grown the most, almost 130cm. Huaibei has also grown, almost 110cm. Huaixi isn't bad either, almost 90cm. I'll go out and measure the children later."

Gu Lixia left the space and lit two stoves.

Then, knead the dough and prepare to make clear soup noodles.

Go back to the house and let Jiang Wen out of the space.

Came out and went to the gate.

Two people took gray paint and used twigs to mark the corresponding positions and numbers.

"How tall am I? How much have I grown? Why did you only measure them and not me?" Jiang Wen suddenly became curious.

Gu Lixia pulled people back into the house and into the space. There was a fully automatic one-stop height and weight measuring instrument on the kitchen floor.

Gu Lixia stood up, 167.68, 49.88.

It won't move. It's completely over.

Jiang Wen went up to 180.15, 68.11.

Not bad.

A little longer.

Gu Lixia couldn't stand the heat anymore.

Get out quickly.

Jiang Wen was still in a daze.

My birthday is in a month.

It seems that if I work harder, I can grow a little taller.

Jiang Wen went to get the cabbage.

Come back and wash, cut and fry.

Roll out the noodles and cook them.

Gu Lixia heard the noise coming from Huainan's room, got up, pushed the door open, and helped Huaixi put clothes on.

Huaibei also came over carrying a cotton jacket.

Gu Lixia naturally took it and helped him put on his clothes.

Leave the child behind.

The children washed themselves.

After breakfast, Gu Lixia and Jiang Wende returned to her parents' home.

After all, it’s the second year of junior high school.

Gu Lixia took a bucket of malted milk.

A bag of fried dough twist weighs 2 jin.

A pack of hemp leaves contains 6 pieces, which is also 2 jin.

A chicken.

A bottle of wine (space sorghum wine).

A bag of tea.

The couple each had a basket.

Sure enough, there were many people traveling along the way.

Most of them go back to their mother's home.

Bring your family with you.

Some have one or two children, and some have four or five.

When Gu Lixia and Jiang Wen entered the family compound, there was an aunt standing at the door waiting for her daughter and son-in-law.

"Lixia is back. What did you get for your parents? Your brother and sister-in-law haven't left yet. I guess they plan to take the gift you brought back."

Gu Lixia didn't care. She had already given it to them, so they could give it to whoever they wanted. "I picked up the good stuff. You all know how my mom was the last time I came back. I took a little more this time. A bucket of malted milk. 2 pounds of fried dough twist. 2 pounds of hemp leaves. A chicken. A bottle of wine. A bag of tea."

"Oh my, Lixia, you've married into a good family. Your mother will definitely be reluctant to let your sister-in-law take all the valuable gifts. Go back quickly, because if your brother and sister-in-law don't leave now, it will be too late."

Gu Lixia and Jiang Wen entered the Gu family alley and the yard.

Gu Lichun opened the door of the Gu family from the inside, "Come in quickly, what did you mention?"

Gu Lixia didn't care about Gu Lichun's attitude, "He brought a lot of good things."

Gu Lixia and Jiang Wen talked as they took everything out of the basket.

Gu Lichun took the Gu family's basket and was about to stuff it in, but Liu Xiaocao quickly held him back.

Pour half of the fried dough twist.

Half a hemp leaf.

Pour half of the tea leaves.

I can’t touch the rest because I can’t bear to part with it.

Gu Lixia took a look and saw that Liu Fang was indeed pregnant, holding her belly.

Liu Fang looked dissatisfied.

Gu Laosan was also a man who cared about his reputation. "Bring the bottle of liquor we bought earlier."

Took the bottle of loose wine.

Gu Lichun and Liu Fang left.

Gu Lixia went to her brother Gu Liqiu's side. "How's work going? Has anyone introduced you to someone?"

Gu Liqiu scratched his head, feeling a little shy. "The second chef's daughter is three years older than me. She fell in love with me when she came to see her father. The second chef is also very satisfied. But we haven't gone out alone yet."

"You didn't tell me. I might as well go and find out about the girl and how many brothers and sisters she has." Liu Xiaocao was excited.

Gu Liqiu continued, "There are seven of us, four men and three women. She's the youngest. She works at the guesthouse. She took over the job from her mother, and she needs to pay half to her mother every month."

Gu Lixia analyzed it instantly, "Liqiu, you have to give up in order to gain. Give up half of your wife's salary so that you can learn from her father. What future does cutting vegetables have? When you have a skill, you can be the second chef and your brother-in-law's child can take over your job cutting vegetables. You should be more diligent in your daily life, serving tea and water, and doing everything for the chef."

"How can you be so filial to your biological parents and yet be so unfilial to your in-laws? I can see at a glance that in the future, your parents and eldest brother won't be able to help you at all. This New Year is over, and who knows, maybe after the second day of the second month, they might move in."

"You definitely won't get a share of the house here. Of course, the one in the old courtyard is definitely yours. You can ask Dad to discuss it with some uncles and aunts, and have Dad pay some money to buy the cave house next door. Or, for the future, buy two, build a wall around it, and open a new door, and live your life there."

Gu Liqiu knew that what Gu Lixia said made sense. He looked at Gu Laosan and Liu Xiaocao, and finally looked at Gu Laosan.

Everyone looked at Gu Lao San. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Okay, no problem. Go find your uncles after work tomorrow. Go to your eldest uncle's house on Sunday afternoon to discuss it."

"I already owe my sister-in-law a sewing machine. When I get married, just having a watch won't be enough." Gu Liqiu asked, looking at the people around him.

Gu Lixia tried her best to negotiate conditions for Gu Liqiu. "Marriage means the family is divided. This is very attractive. What's more important is whether your partner is willing. If not, then find a way to solve the problem. No one wants to be without a house. The best thing is to buy two cave dwellings, and of course, three cave dwellings later. Maybe my brother and sister-in-law will want to live there, after all, the yard is bigger there. It's not up to you."
