The locals grow a lot of sweet potatoes, and they rely on them to survive the famine when they don't have enough food to eat.

There are a lot of sweet potatoes in this season. Store some of the fresh sweet potatoes to eat in the winter, and cut the rest into slices to dry and store. In the spring, when the harvest is slow, you can survive on dried melons.

Xia Ming looked over with both probes. Although the light from the kerosene lamp was dim, his small scar was still very obvious and could be seen clearly.

This scar was mentioned in the original book, and it was spoken through the mouth of the heroine Lan Xuemei.

In college, Gu Yunshan wore washed-white clothes, lived a simple life, but was very smart. His grades were always among the best, and his handsome face was always cold and without a smile.

Lan Xuemei always felt that he had a melancholy and detached temperament, so indifferent yet so sharp, like a gentle sword piercing her heart, making her irresistibly fall in love with him.

But he was lukewarm towards her and very resistant.

Lan Xuemei liked Gu Yunshan and quietly inquired about his past.

She knew that Gu Yunshan had a hard life when he was a child. He started working in the fields when he was five or six years old. In the fall when he was six years old, he injured his hand while helping an adult wipe sweet potato slices. As a result, Mrs. Gu not only didn't feel sorry for him, she even disliked him for staining the dried melons with blood. Not clean.

Knowing that he had an unhappy childhood, Lan Xuemei blamed herself for not getting to know him earlier, and vowed to be good to him and not let him suffer in the future.

But no matter what she did, Gu Yunshan refused to accept her, and would even go home and accept Mrs. Gu's arrangement to marry Xia Mingshuang.

Beautiful and powerful men are easy to impress and inspire women's maternal brilliance, so she has to be wary.

She didn't understand why Lan Xuemei blamed herself for Gu Yunshan's unhappy childhood. He was either a virgin or sick, and he was in love/brain.

Although she sympathized with Gu Yunshan, she calmly looked away, "Then you were a little careless. Just be more careful in the future."

Gu Yunshan: "..."

He didn't say this to gain her sympathy, he just wanted to open up the topic so that she could continue asking questions, so that he could take the opportunity to make some remarks.

Who knew she would actually...bring the topic to her mouth.

Was he going to have a showdown with her and ask her directly, "Who are you?" This was too straightforward, had no room for maneuver, and was not in line with his style.

While he was busy, Gu Daman came over to send a message, "Uncle, my grandma asked you to go over and talk."

She licked her lips as she spoke, looking forward to Gu Yunshan giving her a handful of candies.

In the past, my uncle would bring fruit candies or white rabbits when he came home, and he would give her a piece when she came over. I think they should be there too this time, right?

Gu Yunshan was still helping Xia Mingshuang pour ginger powder into the small intestine. He said: "Go back and say, you are busy today and have no time. Come back tomorrow."

Xia Mingshuang knew what Gu Daman meant by looking at Gu Daman's expression, and signaled Miaomiao to get her two red dates.

Miaomiao went to get two red dates and handed them to Gu Daman.

Gu Daman didn't think it was too little, so he happily took it and stuffed it into his mouth, turned around and ran away.

Old man Gu, old woman Gu and others were angry at home, waiting for Gu Yunshan to come over to talk. When they heard that he didn't come, they immediately started banging the table.

Gu Baoshan looked furious: "What did I say? He is just a white-eyed wolf. He doesn't care about his parents, brothers and sisters to live a good life. Did he jump out of the cracks in the rocks? Or did he grow up on his own? Or did he make money on his own? Are you studying here? Aren’t you supported by your parents and brothers?”

Mrs. Gu kept wiping her tears and moaning, "Just give me five yuan for retirement. He can pay one hundred a month."

She didn't know how much Gu Yunshan paid per month, but it would never be less than 80 yuan.

The second daughter, Gu Yanni, works as a small cadre in the county. She only gets 36 yuan a month including various subsidies. Her son-in-law only gets 42 yuan. The two of them together are not as much as Gu Yunshan alone, so he actually gives it to his biological father. Mother, five dollars, is he embarrassed?

Old Man Gu also kept clicking his pipe without saying a word, "If he doesn't want to come, then just ask the elders from the brigade and the clan to talk to him and explain to him the principle of filial piety first."

He was uneducated, but he had learned a few literate phrases from others and would often use them to express them.

Liu Xiaoxia said: "It must have been my sister-in-law who instigated it. It's better to ask my eldest brother to come out and talk about it first, and go directly to the team cadres. That would be embarrassing, and it would look like a lawsuit."

Gu Yinshan and Gu Liangshan also meant the same thing. Gu Liangshan even thought that five yuan from his eldest brother was not a lot.

Gu Liangshan said: "The eldest brother will give me five yuan, and my parents will take it with them. The three of us brothers will share the rations, and it will be enough."

Gu Baoshan: "Shut up, you know nothing!"

Although Zhao Peihong didn't love Gu Liangshan much, when she heard Gu Baoshan scolding her man, she immediately retorted: "Who are you telling to shut up? If the big houses are divided, it is their own money. If you want the money, make it yourself." What’s the point of scheming against others?”

Gu Baoshan: "Zhao Peihong, don't think I dare not beat you!"

Zhao Peihong: "I think you dare to beat me!"

Gu Liangshan also immediately protected his wife, "Second brother, be careful what you say. They are all members of your family. You have to beat this and that all day long."

Gu Baoshan wanted to hit his younger brother, but Gu Yinshan stopped him.

Gu Yinshan and he are twin brothers, but their temperaments are very different. "Brother, let's have a good talk about whether he wants to be soft or not."

Of course he is also willing to spend his eldest brother's money. With those 30 to [-] yuan, I don't know how well off his family is.

But he also knew that Gu Yunshan was not a child who could be manipulated casually, and forcing him would have no good results.

Old Mrs. Gu gnashed her teeth and muttered: "It's all that bad guy Zhao Juying! Otherwise, God will let her die and her son will be widowed!"

Old Man Gu: "Then give him another chance. When he comes back, the sisters must also come back to get together. Call the boss, second, and third to come back and talk together."

Gu Yulian: "My second sister made that woman so angry last time that she said she would never come back. Tell me, this has nothing to do with eldest brother, it's all that woman's fault."

If you let the eldest brother give Xia Ming a break, all problems will be solved.

This time, even Old Man Gu felt that this should be the case. It was because the eldest daughter-in-law was unfilial. She suddenly changed her temperament and even instigated the eldest daughter-in-law to be unfilial. She should be divorced.

Time was urgent, and they didn't care that it was already night. Mr. Gu asked his three sons to call his three daughters to return to their parents' homes tomorrow.

Gu Liangshan: "My second sister is busy with work, if she doesn't have time..."

Mrs. Gu said coldly: "Just say that I am very ill and will die. We will see if they come back."

Once an old man says that he is seriously ill, he has to give in to any big thing, but he can usually take care of his children.

The old Gu family was discussing how to deal with Gu Yunshan and his wife, but Gu Yunshan didn't pay attention to them at all. All he could think about now was Xia Mingshuang.
