Chapter 148: Let’s Build A New House!

Gu Qingyao and Gu Jinlin carried their two kilograms of meat home.

The aroma of meat was wafting throughout the entire brigade, so Gu Qingyao had no inhibitions. She cooked plenty of good food.

She braised the entire two kilograms of meat with potatoes, which filled half of a large pot.

Gu Jinlin bit his lips when he saw his younger cousin’s ‘lavish’ hand. But he let it go when he saw that Gu Yunshen did not say anything.

His younger cousin was in a bad mood these days. Let her eat whatever she pleased!

When the meat was braised, Gu Qingyao poured almost half of it into a ceramic jar, and told Gu Jinlin to give it to the old people in the cowshed. She also added a small bottle of lard.

Gu Jinlin did not know what to say when he saw this.

It was not that he could not bear to part with these things, but he wondered when this household had suddenly become so extravagant?

His younger cousin had just sent so many things to them two months ago, and even bought him an imported watch. Last night, they had chicken, fish, meat and eggs. Today, she had cooked the entire two kilograms of meat. It was no big deal if she gave some to those living in the cowshed, but she even gave them lard?

This… since when had this household acquired so many things?

“Hurry up. If you’re late, they would have started eating dinner already,” Gu Yunshen said.

“Oh!” If even Gu Yunshen said so, then Gu Jinlin would just obediently bring the things over.

The food was ready by the time Gu Jinlin returned, and the family sat down to eat.

There was meat braised with potatoes, stir-fried cabbage, and a big bowl of bone soup. The soup had been boiled until it was very thick, and she had even added mushrooms. It was delicious!

Gu Jinlin could barely believe his eyes when he saw their standard of living.

But there was so much good food! He was so fortunate!

He gobbled up his food without leaving a single scrap!

It was almost the new year. After the meat was distributed, the grain was also distributed, and the entire brigade grew livelier.

It continued to snow. Gu Yunshen and Gu Jinlin were busy repairing the house.

The Gu family’s house was comparatively sound, just that it was rather near the cowshed. But it was old, and with the heavy snowfall, they had no choice but to repair it.

Gu Jinlin looked at the house and sighed. “Uncle, why not build a few more rooms? You can’t go on living in the cowshed! Yao Yao will be getting married in a couple of years. Surely she can’t get married from a cowshed?”

Gu Yunshen did not say anything.

Gu Jinlin continued, “Also, this place is alright in winter and isn’t too smelly. But spring begins tomorrow, and when summer comes, the stench will be terrible. My grandparents have no choice, but Yao Yao is a young girl. Living here is too tough on her.

“If there is no other choice, why not let Yao Yao leave with me! Let her go to the city. The standards of living are better there. When spring is here, you’ll have to start farming again. Can you bear to allow Yao Yao to work in the fields?”

Of course not!

Gu Yunshen thought of his pretty daughter, with her delicate skin and soft flesh. How could he bear to let her work in the fields?

In the past, Yao Yao was still young, and their family had secretly maintained a very good relationship with Wang Mingtao. Wang Mingtao had never forgotten how the Gu family had groomed him, and he had been secretly helping the Gu family for many years.

Yao Yao was a girl, and a young one too. In the past, he had not allowed her to do much heavy labor. She at most helped with the cooking in the cooking area or performed other light duties like that.

But she was ultimately the granddaughter of a landlord. As she grew older and still did not work in the fields to earn labor points, others would begin to gossip.

In these times, pampered young ladies were not in fashion. A young girl’s greatest virtue is her capability. The propaganda said that women could hold up half the sky. But sometimes it became twisted, and women were treated just like men…
