Sixty-year-old only child: The system taught me how to become rich

After dinner, the family of three went to rest.

Later, Fang Xiaohong and Gu Sen came back first.

Fang Xiaohong's house is the closest, so she came back early.

Followed by Liu Chunyan and Gu Mu, and then Zhang Pandi and Gu Lin.

He Chunlan and Gu Daquan went home after everyone had been back for a while.

Therefore, the Gu family had dinner a little later than usual today.

But it’s not her fault.

Ever since her daughter Gu Xiu got married, in order to entertain her daughter who returned to her parents' home, she never went back to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year. Every time, I settle for the next best thing and go back to my parents’ house on the third day of the Lunar New Year.

But this is also normal in the village. After all, almost every family has a daughter. As long as the daughter gets married, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, the parents of the parents will specially make time to entertain the daughter who returns to her parents' home.

This year is special. Because the eldest sister-in-law of Gu Xiu's husband's family is going back to her parents' home this year, her husband's family will stay there to entertain their family.

Under normal circumstances, a sister-in-law does not need to stay to entertain her sister-in-law and her family on the second day of the Lunar New Year. But the problem is that Gu Xiu's sister-in-law married far away, to a provincial capital.

The provincial capital is far away, and it takes a long time to go back and forth. She has a family and a job, and has to take care of the whole family. Therefore, Gu Xiu's eldest sister-in-law has not visited her parents' home for several years.

It’s hard to come back this time, so of course I have to treat you well.

He Chunlan also understood, so he asked Gu Xiu to come back on the third day of the new year.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she could also go back to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

Except for Gu Ning's family of three, everyone else in the family had been running around all day. So after dinner, I took a shower and went to bed early.

Early the next morning, He Chunlan got up and made preparations.

The mother-in-law is already up, how dare the daughters-in-law continue to sleep. In addition, my eldest sister-in-law is coming back today. As her sister-in-law and sister-in-law, I have to make some preparations.

Gu Xiu also came very early, and this time she brought her two sons.

A family of four came by bicycle.

The gift that Gu Xiu brought to her parents' family was hung on the front of the bicycle. The eldest son Zhang Ziqiang was sitting on the seat of the bicycle, and the youngest son Zhang Zizhong was sitting on the front bumper. Zhang Jianguo was pushing the bicycle, and Gu Xiu was walking beside him.

The door was open. As soon as Gu Xiu's family arrived at the door, Li Zi saw them in the yard and quickly went up to say hello.

"Sister, you are here."

He turned around and shouted towards the kitchen.

"Mom, eldest sister is here."

He Chunlan heard the sound and hurriedly came out of the kitchen and held her daughter's hand excitedly.

"Xiu'er, we haven't seen each other for a while. Mom misses you. I know you are coming today, so I got up early in the morning to prepare."

Gu Xiu was also very excited. He Chunlan missed her, so how could she not miss He Chunlan.

But this is not the place to talk. Her husband and son behind her have not yet settled down, so the gifts they brought cannot just hang on the bicycle.

"Mom, I miss you too. However, this yard is not a place for talking. Let's go inside and talk. You see, I brought these things with me, so I have to put them inside."

He Chunlan thought the same and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, you are right. Mom was so excited that she forgot about it for a moment. It was time to go into the house and say that she wanted to find a place for my son-in-law and two grandsons to sit."

So he led everyone into the main room.

Soon after entering the main room and sitting down, Gigi Lai brought several bowls of brown sugar water and distributed them to Gu Xiu's family.

The Gu Xiu family reached out and took it, then thanked them.

"Thank you, aunt."

The two boys, Zhang Ziqiang and Zhang Zizhong, took the brown sugar water and thanked them, and then drank it impatiently.

As soon as they took their mouth, the sweet taste of brown sugar water filled their mouths. The two children squinted their eyes happily and drank it all in the blink of an eye.

After finishing the drink, I was still a little nostalgic and smacked my lips.

Gu Xiu caught a glimpse of the hopeless look of her two sons and laughed and cursed a few times.

"Look at how greedy you two are. It's not like you eat or drink. You are two greedy cats."

The two children smiled and didn't care.

Gu Xiu didn't continue and started chatting with her mother.

"Mom, was everything okay at home while I was away?"

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with it. Just put your heart in your stomach."

"Okay, then I'm relieved. By the way, where is my father? Why don't you see him?"

"Your father, he originally planned to stay at home and wait for you today. But before you came, something suddenly happened in the village, and he went to deal with it."

"Oh, that's it, then I'm relieved. Come, take a look at the gift I brought you."

After saying that, Gu Xiu turned to greet Zhang Jianguo.

"Jianguo, please bring the things we brought here, and I'll show them to my mother."

Zhang Jianguo nodded and took everything he had put on the ground.

Gu Xiu took the thing from Zhang Jianguo's hand, took a piece of cloth from it, and handed it to He Chunlan.

"Mom, I brought a piece of cloth this time. It's six feet long. It's just enough to make a dress for you and my dad."

He Chunlan gently touched the fabric with her hand and said distressedly:

"Xiu'er, mother doesn't want it, and neither does your father. We don't lack clothes. Nowadays, we need tickets everywhere, cloth tickets are in short supply, and everyone is short of cloth. You girl, you finally got a piece, keep it for yourself. , what are you doing for us?"

Gu Xiu patted He Chunlan's hand comfortingly.

"Mom, don't worry, I have some myself. This is extra, so I brought it to you. And this is your daughter's filial piety, so just take it."

"Then it won't work. Just because you have it, doesn't mean you don't need it. It would be great if you take this piece of cloth back and make new clothes for each of my two eldest grandsons."

He Chunlan still refused.

"Oh, mother, no need. Let me tell you, didn't my eldest sister-in-law marry in the provincial capital and come back yesterday? My eldest sister-in-law's husband, Zhang Jianguo, and his brother-in-law are working as workshop directors in a textile factory in the provincial capital. You also know that textiles The factory often has defective fabrics, and their internal employees can select them first. Not only does it cost no money, but it’s also cheaper.”

Gu Xiu persuaded again.

"Really? Such a good thing?"

He Chunlan was pleasantly surprised.

"Yes, otherwise I could still lie to you? My sister-in-law hasn't been back for many years. If she comes back once, she will definitely bring more things."

"My brother-in-law works in a textile factory, and my sister-in-law works in a supply and marketing cooperative. Of course, I need to receive the benefits I can, so many of the things I brought are employee benefits, and there are a lot of defective fabrics in them. Fabrics are common in every household. Whatever is lacking, they are all real things.”

"Because I wanted to welcome my eldest daughter, I couldn't go back to my parents' house yesterday, and my mother-in-law was also very guilty. No, knowing that I was going back to my parents' house today, my mother-in-law specially bought a lot of things for me to bring, and this piece of cloth was one of them. one."
