The whole family looked at Gu Yang with the same expression as a fool. Madam Gu was even more tired. There were four brothers, each of whom was more shrewd than the other. She was born the stupidest.
Gu Yang explained the origin of the steamed buns and steamed buns in a dazzling manner, focusing on bragging about Gu Ye's ability only in the world, and the whole family didn't believe it.
Gu Decheng picked up a bun and said with emotion: "It's been a long time since I saw such a big bun. When I was a child, your grandmother would make it too. During the Chinese New Year, steam a pot and put a piece of meat in a bun, that is New Year's Eve."
Gu Ye smiled, "So, it's quite worth it to have this big pot of buns back."
Gu Decheng tasted one with a smile, "It tastes like a farmhouse, it's better than asking for money."
Gu Ye asked with a smile, "Is it the taste of my hometown?"
Gu Decheng nodded with satisfaction, "Very good."
Mrs. Gu saw that her husband liked it, "If you want to eat it, I will find time to find an old aunt to learn how to steam this bun."
Gu Yang shook his head and said solemnly: "Mom, the conditions in our family are not suitable, you have to make that kind of cauldron!" Gu Yang gestured, "It's so big! There can be dozens of them in one cauldron!"
Mrs. Gu rolled her eyes, just wanting to shut him up.
I know Gu Yang's face, you don't understand the sense of superiority at all, and you don't understand the fucking hint, "You still have to burn wood."
Madam Gu sneered, "Burn wood pollutes the environment, I use electricity."
"Electricity can't work. Electricity will definitely not give off that smell. You have to go to the mountains to chop wood. Carry a small basket and find the dry, wet ones that won't burn." Gu Yang thought for a while, then clapped his hands excitedly, "Aiya , what a miserable old lady!"
The three Gu Ye brothers all had the expression that the child was helpless, and even Gu Decheng couldn't help laughing, Madam Gu stood up angrily, grabbed Gu Yang's ear, and said angrily: "I think you don't want to eat at noon anymore. , you hang up the lantern for me! If you can't finish it in the afternoon, you won't be allowed to eat at night!"
Gu Yang was being carried and yelled, and he didn't know where he offended his mother. When the whole family was eating at noon, he climbed the ladder and hung the lantern, with an aggrieved expression on his face that he was hurt by the whole family.
Gu Ye smirked, the boss will definitely not do this kind of work, the second child is as elegant as a noble boy, and it is impossible to climb the ladder, and he doesn't want to do it, so he can only grieve the fourth.
Seeing Gu Sen wandering around the yard with a cold face, Gu Ye said secretly: "Big brother must be worried about the fourth. He wants to help, but he can't save face."
Gu Lin shook his head and said with disgust, "Aojiao, who knows who suffers."
Gu Ye squinted and looked at Gu Sen for a while, then suddenly became happy, and shouted through the window, "Brother, you have the luck of the peach blossom this year!"
Gu Sen's face sank outside the window, "Don't talk nonsense."
Hearing this, Gu Decheng asked in surprise, "Really?"
Gu Ye said firmly: "Really, my eldest brother will definitely have a peach blossom this year, or a good peach blossom."
Gu Sen glared at Gu Ye angrily, "Shut up!"
"dad!"
"Boss shut up! The third said."
Gu Ye said with a smile: "I only see that eldest brother has peach blossom luck, but I haven't seen whether that person is the future sister-in-law, eldest brother, come on~"
Gu Sen: "..."
——
On the 30th day of the Chinese New Year, finally came the main event, the ancestor worship link.
After the family is ready, they go to their ancestors' graves to offer incense, and then invite their ancestors to go home for the Chinese New Year. The four brothers kowtowed to their grandfather, grandmother, grandfather, grandma, second grandfather, and second grandma one by one. In the winter, the ground was cold and hard, and even the small particles of soil made their knees hurt. Gu Yang snorted and grinned at his brothers after knocking twice. Big brother was as expressionless as ever. The strange thing is that the second and third brothers didn't change their faces either. Gu Yang subconsciously glanced at the third brother, who was most afraid of pain, only to realize that something was wrong. The position of the second and third brothers' knees... so thick!
Gu Yang asked in a low voice, "Brother, what's in your knee?"
Gu Ye said expressionlessly: "Be serious, a row of old ancestors are looking at you and like you very much."
Gu Yang was so frightened that he shut his mouth and didn't even dare to rub his knees.
Finally at the tomb of Gu Ye's mother, Gu Decheng squatted down, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped the picture of his wife. The woman in the photo has a smile on the corner of her mouth, delicate facial features, arrogance and confidence in her eyebrows and eyes. In the early days of Gu Decheng's business, without the help of his wife, he would not have achieved what he is now.
Gu Decheng said solemnly: "Kow to your mother, you have grown up."
The three brothers kowtowed to their mother. Gu Yang saw the brothers kowtow, so he followed, knelt beside Gu Ye, followed by kowtow and called his mother.
Mrs. Gu, who had been standing on the side and seemed to be an outsider who was difficult to blend in, was twitching at the corner of her son's mouth, and she always felt like she was dead.
Originally, the three brothers didn't feel good in their hearts, and when they saw Gu Yang, they couldn't even laugh or cry. Gu Decheng also smiled, "Okay, the boss is holding the throne and going back to celebrate the New Year."
Gu Sen walked in front with dozens of tablets, and Gu Ye saw that there was no ancestor behind him, neither his grandparents nor his mother. In the end, asking the ancestors to go back for the New Year is just a kind of spiritual sustenance for the living.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the whole family watched the Spring Festival Gala together. Gu Decheng glanced at Gu Ye who was sitting on the sofa and nibbling on melon seeds, "Old third, come here."
Gu Ye blinked, put on his slippers and followed his father upstairs, "Dad, what's the matter?"
Gu Decheng pondered for a while, and asked with a complicated face: "Your mother, have you ever blamed me?"
Gu Ye was stunned for a moment before he realized what his father meant. He smiled, "No, my mother has already been reincarnated. Usually, she will be reincarnated without worrying about it."
Gu Decheng stood there in surprise. After a long time, he sighed, "She's gone."
Gu Ye was open to it, and said with relief: "Let's go, it's good, why wait for a few more decades, and I don't know if we can be together in the next life."
Gu Decheng nodded. He couldn't tell if he was regretful or relieved, "What about your grandfather? What's your concern?"
"I was reincarnated a long time ago," Gu Ye couldn't help laughing. "I gave you a dream before. It was a little man I cut out of paper. My grandfather left early."
Dad Gu was stunned for a while, then immediately annoyed, "You arrogant child!"
Gu Ye was also very innocent. He spread his hands and asked, "What can I do? You don't listen to what I say!"
Gu Decheng was angry and wanted to hit the child, "Your grandfather, you dare to cheat, I will be sorry for the ancestors if I don't hit you!"
Gu Ye ran away, "Mom! My dad beat me!"
Today Mrs. Gu felt very uncomfortable, because she felt like an outsider, and she herself knew that the whole family treated her well, but she was hypocritical. Hearing Gu Ye's words, he couldn't care less about the awkwardness. He rushed up and stopped him, "Gu Decheng! It's a new year, why are you beating the child again?"
The cub guard was particularly fierce, Gu Decheng's expression froze, and his momentum instantly weakened, "I didn't fight, scare him."
"My mother is so good-looking!" Gu Ye praised gratefully, and took the opportunity to slip away, Gu Decheng was angrily laughed, and there was nothing to do with him.
After returning to the room, Gu Ye took out the statue of Hades and Master's tablet that he had forgotten in the box, and took a raw chicken from the kitchen and placed it on it, "I'm sorry, I'm too busy, the tribute is now for you, please bless me, Don't let me encounter so many bizarre things again. It's worshipped with meat and meat, right, you wait."
Not long after, Gu Ye came back with a smile, closed the door with a smile, placed the half plate of fruits and melon seeds he had just eaten, put his hands together and bowed, and said solemnly: "It is said that sincerity is good, courtesy Take it lightly, eat it, you're welcome!"
After praying, Gu Ye sat at the table, continued to knock melon seeds, turned on the TV in the bedroom, and started replying to today's messages.
That night, Gu Yemeng dreamed that his master had turned into a man in his fifties, dressed in a very handsome suit, held his ears and scolded him as a little bastard, worshipping God insincere.
Gu Ye also complained, the old man dressed like a civil servant, dressed so handsomely, and was busy marrying a daughter-in-law or what? The angry old man chased and beat him, Gu Ye ran fast, and the old man chased after him for a long time.
Facts have proved that you still have to listen to Master's teachings, and you must be sincere in worshipping God, otherwise you won't care about nonsense. For the next year, Gu Ye still couldn't hide from strange things.
On the second day of the new year, early in the morning, someone came to him.
After hearing the notification from his family, Gu Ye withdrew the offering of Lord Yan, "You have to endure until the fifth day of the first lunar month, you are not allowed at all! Don't eat it."
Going downstairs, Gu Ye saw two people who were sitting cautiously on the sofa in the living room, with deathly expressions on their faces, "Yo, it's early enough."
"It's too much for us to disturb the little fairy for the New Year. I'm the eldest, my name is Liu Sheng, and my fourth brother, Liu Long." Liu Shenggang was fifty years old, and his hair was gray. The attitude was at the lowest level, "We really can't go on, seeing the note you left, we endured the 30th, the first day of the new year, and I'm afraid that you will leave today, and the door will be blocked after a long walk. ."
Liu Long's eyes were red, "Yesterday for the New Year, our brothers invited a row of gods to come back, and they are still at home today. It's really hard to live."
Gu Ye asked the two uncles to serve tea, "Don't worry, speak slowly."
Liu Sheng said slowly: "That's right. In March last year, the four of us, brothers, pooled money to buy that vacant lot and built a pig farm, but it didn't take long for the farm to open, and an accident happened at home. First, my daughter-in-law had cancer. When it was found out, it was already in the advanced stage, and she was gone in two months. She was in good health before, and she could do the farm work in the fields. Eyes rolled, "Only forty-five."
Liu Long took the eldest brother's words and continued: "Just when my sister-in-law was in the hospital, I caught up with the wheat harvest. My second brother has a combine harvester. When the wheat was harvested, the machine broke down. He went down to check. The machine suddenly slid forward a step, and his whole body was swept into the harvester. When he was rescued, his entire back had no flesh, and he was taken to an ambulance like a bloody man. Fortunately, the fire was turned off, or he would have died. No, up to now, he is still recovering from my nephew and has never come back."
"And then, it's my third brother. He has a little high blood pressure. He drank a little bit of alcohol at night, but he's usually fine. In the early morning when he went to the toilet, he suddenly suffered a brain hemorrhage. When my younger brother and sister found out, he was already stiff."
"It's not. Two months ago, my daughter-in-law was gone." Liu Long said with a sullen face: "I have the same disease as my sister-in-law. When I found out, it was a terminal cancer. This year, I am thirty-eight years old."
"People in the village said in private that it was my family who did the wicked thing, and that was the retribution." The brothers looked bitter, "We are honest farmers, where can we do wicked things?"
Gu Ye nodded and comforted: "You didn't do anything immoral. I can see that you are all honest and responsible. Did you spend all your hard-earned money to build this pig farm?"
"Yeah, the loan is repaid." Speaking of this, the brothers were worried, "Now I want to sell the property to pay back the money, but I can't sell it."
"Don't be in a hurry to sell," Gu Ye asked, "Has anyone in the village died in their 40s or 50s?"
"That's true," Liu Sheng thought for a while. "A few days ago, he had a sudden myocardial infarction. He's gone, and he's in his forties. He's also in the late-stage of cancer, just in his fifties."
Gu Ye's eyes sank, and as soon as he looked up, he found that there was a row standing in the corridor on the second floor, all with their heads lowered and listening to gossip. Because they had never heard of it, it was somewhat new. Now, looking at the expressions of the two brothers, they both looked sympathetic.
The corner of Gu Ye's mouth twitched and called Gu Yang, "Go get me a pen and paper."
Gu Yang hurriedly ran away, and after a while, he handed down an unwritten test paper.
Gu Ye raised his eyebrows to look at him, are you serious
Gu Yang smiled pleasantly, but he didn't do it anyway.
Gu Ye turned the test paper upside down and drew a picture on the back of the paper, "Look, does this location in your factory look like a guillotine?"
Both brothers took a deep breath, "Really!"
"Building a factory here, and erecting such a high flagpole here, what's the difference between it and a guillotine? This flagpole can't be erected here. Who gave you the idea?"
The expressions of the two of them changed, "In the beginning, we didn't have a flagpole there. Isn't there always something wrong with our family? I asked about it and found a Taoist priest. He said that there is evil here, and we must erect a flagpole to suppress the evil. stand."
Gu Ye sneered, "This Taoist priest is not a serious person, right? There was a problem with that position, but it didn't reach the point of death so soon. Once the flagpole is erected, the surrounding Feng Shui has changed. That Taoist priest, you guys Where did you find it?"
"Just from Zao Village next door, he came to the town half a year ago, and he can count it if he can. If there is a wedding or a happy event, he can help. The people in the town said that a little fairy had left, and another half came. Fairy."
Gu Ye sneered, what kind of half-immortal is this looking at Feng Shui's ability? If it is done sincerely, it is to use feng shui to maliciously kill people, and this is a big problem.
"You two go back now and find someone to dig up the flagpole. I suspect there is something buried under the flagpole." Gu Ye stood up, "You go first, I'll be there later."
Gu Yang finally managed to be clever, he brought Gu Ye a down jacket, and followed him, "I'm going too!"
Gu Lin hung a bunch of car keys on his fingers and turned around with a smile, "I'll go too."
Gu Ye: "..."
