Good mountains, good water, good people

After dinner in the evening, Gu Changning summed up the money earned during the day in front of the family, reported the total to the family, and said with a smile: "This time, the money earned from selling things is higher than the previous two years." You can earn even more money selling vegetables!"

"Hey, that's really great. We can earn more and more money in the future." Mother Gu was also very happy when she heard her son say that he had made money.During this period of time, they saw their son throwing money into the back mountain, but they didn't see any income. It was only after buying vegetables and fruits these few times that they gradually got income.

Grandpa Gu and Village Chief Gu also nodded, saying yes.

This time, the grandma also understood what the family said, knowing that her great-grandson made money in business, she grinned with a toothless mouth, "The big boy makes a lot of money, a lot of money."

"Tai Nai, you are right, our eldest son will be a millionaire in the future." Grandma Gu replied.

Gu Changning was happy to see his family making money for him, and by the way, he said to his family, "I discussed with my father to go again tomorrow morning. There are a lot of vegetables in the shed. Let's take out a little more food. Let’s sell more, taking advantage of the good vegetable prices a year ago.”

"Yes, yes, that's the truth." Gu's mother also agreed, but it's only a few days before the Chinese New Year, and I don't know if I can sell so many vegetables, "Why don't I go out to sell vegetables with you tomorrow? Selling a little is a little."

"There are a lot of things going on at home, mom, you should stay at home, I'll just arrange for two more people to go there." It's not that Gu Changning didn't let his mom go with them to the town to sell things, it was him and His father has gone to town, and he also needs someone to help take care of the family. His grandparents are getting old, and Gu Changning is not very relieved to leave some things to the elders, so he can only work harder on his mother. .

Mother Gu also knows that there are a lot of things going on at home. If she leaves, she really won't be able to find someone who can replace her. "Well, that's fine, then I'll stay at home."

"Oh, there is one more thing. I have a friend coming over tomorrow, and he may have dinner at our house. Mom, see if there is anything for sale in the vegetable market tomorrow morning. Buy a little more. If there is no suitable one, we will go from town tomorrow. I'll give you some money to buy vegetables." Gu Changning took out ten 100-yuan bills from the money bag and handed them to his mother, saying, "Mom, let's kill a chicken and make some money tomorrow." There is no need to cook too many dishes, he will come alone."

"There are more than a dozen chickens at home. I'll catch one tomorrow morning and lock it up. It's lunch time. I'll kill it and put it away in the morning." Mother Gu stared at her son's hand that handed over the money, and pushed his son's hand back. No, I don't want to take the money.

"I don't need money to buy my own chickens. What do you do with so much money? You still have money left over from the money you bought me for vegetables last time, so don't pay."

"Grandma, you can take it, and save the extra to buy vegetables for the Chinese New Year. It will be used anyway."

"No, no, no, you only make a little money now. You spent so much money in Houshan, and you haven't paid back. Don't give me money, I still have money to buy vegetables here. Your dad Give me money every month, and the family has money to buy food. You will give it to us when you make a lot of money in the future, and we will take whatever you want."

The mother and son pushed back and forth hundreds of dollars, but Gu Changning stuffed the money into his mother's hands, and refused to take it back, "If the family needs money, just tell me, I can't get the big money out now, a few thousand There are still a few hundred." During this period of time, his money was relatively difficult, and he hadn't tasted the feeling of lack of money for a long time since he was able to go out to work part-time when he was in college.

But there is no way now, the money invested has not been recovered.However, compared to a while ago when they only went out and didn't make money, now at least they are making money, which is also a good sign.

"Hey, good." Gu's mother had no choice but to put away the money given by her son, and said with a smile: "What kind of money does the family need, just buy some meat every day, and the vegetables are all grown in your sheds. It doesn't cost money. Oh, yes, your grandfather said that he has invited someone to come and see the sheep, but he doesn't know if he will come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Grandpa Gu sat at the door smoking a cigarette, and replied, "The day after tomorrow."

"Grandpa, are you going to sell the sheep? Are our sheep going to be sold?" Gu Changning really didn't know about it, so he asked him.

"Well, yes, sell a few for the Chinese New Year." Grandpa Gu nodded, and said, "When your second uncle and the others come back, let's kill another one to eat for the New Year."

"Second Uncle and the others said they will come back this year for the New Year?" Gu Changning asked.

"Well, he said he came back to celebrate the New Year. Your uncle said that Chunsheng had a meeting with a friend. He brought him home to have a look. If the talk is resolved, we will have a wedding next year." He smiled, as if seeing his great-grandson running in front of him.

However, it is a good thing that the second grandson has a partner. Grandpa Gu also hopes that the eldest grandson will also have good news, "A Ning, you are the eldest brother, you have to hurry up, otherwise Chunsheng and the others will run ahead of you."

"Yeah, baby, you have to work harder, find a good girl, and try to get married next year. Your grandpa and mom and I are still waiting for your wedding." Grandma Gu also said with a smile.

How can he have time to think about this matter now? It may not be a matter of time... Under the expectant eyes of the whole family, Gu Changning could only nod his head hard, and said Say "I try my best."

Later, the family was talking about the return of their second uncle and second aunt, and the fact that their cousin Chunsheng was going to bring his girlfriend back. Gu Changning felt that this topic was not suitable for him to participate in, so he said that he should take a bath first.

After taking a bath at night, he didn't stay at home too much. After telling his family, he went up to the back mountain to guard the greenhouse by himself.After leaving the house, I always feel that the surroundings have become quiet and lonely, as if he is the only one in the world.

Gu Changning squatted at the door of the hut by himself and looked out. Suddenly, he wanted to smoke a cigarette, only to realize that he hadn't smoked for a long time, and there was nothing in the empty bag.

I feel inexplicably a little irritable, probably because the family members talked about my cousin finding a girlfriend to get married, hoping that he can get married and have children as soon as possible, as early as the second year of his graduation, the family members revealed this to him wished.If it was anything else, he might still be able to satisfy the wishes of his family, but only this, he probably would not be able to marry a woman and have children of his own in his life.

As early as puberty, Gu Changning discovered that he did not like girls like those boys of the same age. Compared with girls, boys attracted his gaze and attention more.For a long period of time, he felt that he was a pervert, he didn't know what to do, and he didn't dare to talk about it with his friends and classmates around him. show.

It wasn't until he went to university that he found related books in the school library that he realized that homosexuality is not a disease. Some people are born with it, while others are acquired. His kind is probably born with it.

After knowing that he was not sick, Gu Changning slowly took a correct look at his sexuality.The two senior brothers he met in college were a pair of gay lovers. It was the first time he knew such people existed around him. The relationship between the two senior brothers was very good, but he didn't know if they would still be there after graduation from university. together.It's just that after the pair of senior brothers graduated, they had no contact with each other, and it's not good for him to inquire about other people's news because of this.

It's just that he has never dared to tell anyone about his sexuality, but the senior brother who has a good relationship with him probably saw it, but he didn't say it, and others didn't ask him anything.For so many years, he has never accepted the pursuit of any girl, and he dare not find a boy to fall in love.But he can't do such things as asking him to find a random girl to marry and cheating others.

Thinking about his own affairs, Gu Changning really couldn't find a good solution for a while, and he didn't dare to tell his family members that he could only hide it for a day, if it was true, he couldn't hide it anymore Time to confess to the family.

As for now...

Gu Changning looked at the row of greenhouses in front of him. His dream was here. He thought it was better to get his business done first, and talk about other things later.

I don't know if it's because he was too restless, but he didn't sleep very well that night, he was dreaming all night, sometimes he dreamed that he was in junior high school, sometimes he dreamed that he went to college, and later he dreamed Brother Qin, who hadn't contacted for a long time, dreamed that the person was standing in front of him, he looked at the other person, and the other person looked at him, neither of them spoke...

The phone on the bedside rang, and he woke up from the dream.

He reached out and grabbed the phone, turned off the alarm clock, and glanced at the time, it was exactly four o'clock.

After lying on the bed for a while, I lifted the quilt and got up, turned on the light in the room, picked up the cotton pants and sweater jacket at the end of the bed, put it on, opened the room and went out, poured a little hot water from the kettle into the basin , Soaked in a little cold water, brushed teeth and washed face.Then, before everyone came, he poured some Lingxi water into the water tank, which was something he would do every day.

In the morning, everyone came to work, picking strawberries and harvesting vegetables.

Their greenhouse has a relatively complete variety of vegetables, including vegetables, radishes, and peppers.In the past few days, their Chinese cabbages have started to be harvested. The Chinese cabbages are white and fat, and a dozen cabbages can fill a basket.

The taste of their Chinese cabbage is particularly good, and the taste is sweet when cooked.

People in the village know that the food here is good, and some people come to buy food from them.

Nearly the end of the new year, people who went out to work in the village have returned to the village one after another. Many people have more people eating, and they buy more vegetables every day than before. Therefore, recently, people in the village come to them every day to buy vegetables. Not too many.
