Even if the family has rich rice and white noodles, how much can they have? They live in the county, and they rarely eat rice and white noodles on weekdays, and most of them are mixed with miscellaneous grains.
Come to think of it, the amount of rice and flour is also very small.
But something is better than nothing after all.
Mr. Gu glanced at his eldest son, and said inexplicably, "That was left by Xiao Jin, have you asked her?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Dechang showed a shameful expression on his face.
He put his eyes on Gu Jin, and said in a sly way: "Girl Jin, I didn't think about it so much, I just got a little anxious."
The reason why Gu Jin went out in separate households was to adopt An Mingji, and at the same time, in order not to increase the burden on the family, he even said that she would share half of her rations.
Now what their family eats is the fine grain left by Gu Jin, and he knows that he is doing it for him.
Gu Dechang just didn't want to embarrass the old man, so he offered to share some of the family's food with the younger sister.
Gu Jin could also tell that both the old man and the uncle wanted to share some burden with my sister-in-law.
She has no objection to this: "Of course, sister-in-law is not an outsider, so I have no objection."
The old man asked Gu Dechang for Gu Jin's opinion, but Gu Qiuzhen and his wife were confused.
However, there is food at home, and some can be distributed to them, and the two of them will not take it for nothing.
Gu Qiuzhen took out the bulging money wrapped in a handkerchief from her bosom, and glanced at her eldest brother, sister-in-law and old man: "Father, Hong Guo and I didn't take the food for nothing, so we bought it at the previous price."
"Little sister, what you said is that we are a family with no money. You just take the food. Jiajie and I will go to the kitchen and bring it for you."
Gu Dechang stood up and waved to Gu Jiajie not far away.
Girl Jin agreed, and he didn't have any worries.
After the father and son left, Mr. Gu still remained silent, smoking a pipe.
Chen Hong sat on the seat obediently, wrenched his fingers, and remained silent without speaking.
Xia Jinlei suddenly said, "Mom, these biscuits are delicious."
Holding the opened biscuit in his hand, he shook Gu Qiuzhen with a happy and bright smile on his face.
The twelve-year-old boy had an expression of joy and innocence on his face.
Gu Qiuzhen had seen the calcium milk and biscuits in his hands a long time ago, and his son had drunk the calcium milk several times, but they didn't recognize the biscuits from the packaging.
She walked up to her son and asked him, "Who gave this to you?"
"Miss Jin gave it."
Gu Qiuzhen heard the words and looked at Gu Jin: "You kid just gave you money, but you don't want it, and you gave Xiaolei this expensive thing."
As she said that, she took out the money again, and the previous two yuan was changed to five yuan: "You take this money, I won't see you several times a year, don't refuse anymore."
Regardless of Gu Jin's evasion, Gu Qiuzhen stuffed the money into her arms, and pulled Xia Jinlei back to her seat to sit down.
Holding the five yuan in his arms, Gu Jin couldn't laugh or cry.
But this time she didn't refuse, handed five yuan to An Mingji who was beside her, and whispered: "Boy, take it to buy candy."
"..."
An Mingji, who was stuffed with five yuan, looked puzzled.
However, the actions between the two were seen by everyone present.
Mr. Gu, Chen Hong, and Gu Minmin have known for a long time that Gu Jinsui and An Mingji are good, and they also know that she is protecting An Mingji like an eyeball.
But Gu Qiuzhen, Xia Hongguo, and Xia Jinlei's family didn't know.
