Life in a quiet village in Xianshan
Chapter 47 New Clothes
After sliding down the cliff, he used a raft tied to the river to cross the river, and climbed over several mountain ridges. Gu Siwei appeared at a mountain pass. From here, he could see the village straight ahead.
It's hard to make use of the space here, because although people don't come here often, villagers do come here from time to time, so for safety, Gu Siwei had to rely on his two legs.
After leaving the mountain pass, Gu Siwei walked forward for less than a mile when he heard shouting from the river.
I hurried over to take a look and found a group of naughty children fishing on the shore.
"Brother Siwei, what did you do this time?"
"Uncle Siwei, did you catch the rabbit?"
…
When they saw Gu Siwei, they asked him for anything, but most of the children asked about food.
Gu Siwei spread his hands and said, "I'm not lucky this time. I didn't catch anything."
I just brought something back two days ago, but Gu Siwei didn't bring it this time. There was a bit of pheasant in the space, but Gu Siwei was not interested in taking it out.
"Uncle Siwei, we caught a fish, look."
A boy lifted the bamboo cage out of the water and waved it in his hand.
"Not bad!"
How could Gu Siwei care about what these children caught? After praising them out loud, he left the group of children and walked towards his small yard.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, Gu Siwei realized that the courtyard today was different from the past.
It was for no other reason than that Sicui was now wearing a new set of clothes. Although the blue clothes were a bit old-fashioned in color, they were much better than the tattered ones she had before.
Not only did she change into new clothes, the little girl seemed to have taken a bath and her hair was neatly tied.
In addition, these days, Gu Siwei often greets her with a white face. The little girl's face has gradually grown flesh, and her skin has changed from the original dark and rough skin to a little blush.
"elder brother!"
When the sharp-eyed Sicui saw Gu Siwei, her whole body felt like a flower blooming in an instant. That kind of joy and joy suddenly infected Gu Siwei.
"Brother, sister-in-law Meiling has made some clothes for me. Does it look good?"
Sicui stood in front of Gu Siwei, pulled the corners of her coat, and said to Gu Siwei.
It was obvious that the little girl couldn't be more satisfied with her new clothes. Even if it wasn't the girl's favorite floral jacket, for Sicui, she had never worn such good clothes since she could remember.
"Yes, Not Bad!"
Gu Siwei actually thought it was pretty good, but he didn't want to show it. He was still thinking about leaving Sicui to Liu Fulin to take care of him after a while. He wanted to move to Yinsong Cliff and live his own semi-reclusive life.
However, sometimes, some people and things will come into your heart unknowingly, but you just don't realize it. Although Gu Siwei behaves like a 250-year-old, in fact, deep down, he is still the same person he was loved by. Before the society beat her down, she was a kind-hearted Sao Nian.
Sicui was used to Gu Siwei's indifference. For her, if the brother in front of her said yes, it must be good, so the smile on the little girl's face became even brighter and she began to chatter to Gu Siwei non-stop. new clothes.
Just as the brother and sister were standing in the yard, talking about new clothes, Wu Meiling came over with a smile.
"The fourth-dimensional brothers are back?"
Wu Meiling was cheerful.
Now Wu Meiling is really grateful to Gu Siwei from the bottom of her heart, and also grateful for her original decision. She was kind-hearted and extended a helping hand to Gu Siwei, and received the most generous reward.
If nothing else, although my children still don’t have enough to eat, they are able to make a living at 70% to 80%, which is already very good for the child’s physical development.
It is precisely because of this that Wu Meiling became even more concerned about Gu Siwei and Sicui.
Not to mention anything else, just two pairs of clothes, which Wu Meiling made with Wan.
"Sister-in-law Meiling, thank you for these days," Gu Siwei said politely.
Gu Siwei is such a person. If others treat him well, he will definitely return the favor several times over. Wu Meiling helps him this and that, and he is naturally closer to him than others. This is human nature.
"Why are you so polite? You just happened to be back and the clothes have been prepared for you. I'll bring them over for you to try on. If there's anything inappropriate, I'll take them back and change them," Wu Meiling said.
"So fast?"
Gu Siwei thought it wouldn't be so fast, but who would have thought that Wu Meiling had already done it.
Wu Meiling said with a smile: "I have nothing to do at home, so I just go out and do some things."
Wu Meiling's words were just polite words. What does nothing mean? Even if nothing happens, why can't people take a break and sleep? Why spend time making clothes for other people's homes when you don't have the money to do so.
Gu Siwei also understood, so he smiled and said: "Don't rush next time, I'm not in a hurry."
Wu Meiling said with a smile: "There's no hurry, look at what you're wearing, your sleeves are almost stained with oil, hurry up and give it a try."
Gu Siwei raised his cuffs and looked at them, a little embarrassed, because the cuffs were indeed worn a bit black.
In this case, Gu Siwei stopped being pretentious, took the clothes and walked into the house to change them.
When he walked out of the house again, Gu Siwei felt that his clothes were a bit strange.
It's not the clothes that are weird, it's Gu Siwei's feeling. What's the weird thing?
The strange style is a tunic suit with lapels and four pockets. The buttons are not ordinary buttons, but cloth strips. As for the reason, I must have no money to buy plastic buttons.
It feels awkward to put on the clothes. That's because the large cotton-padded jackets worn nowadays look a bit like a clock, with the hem usually turned outwards. In Gu Siwei's time, the cotton-padded jackets had no cuffs, so they must have gone above the knees.
Wu Meiling saw that Gu Siwei seemed a little dissatisfied, so she asked: "What, the size is not suitable? Is it too small?"
When Gu Siwei heard this, he immediately waved his hands: "Nothing, it fits very well, but I'm a little uncomfortable wearing it all at once."
Hearing what Gu Siwei said, Wu Meiling finally felt relieved, walked to Gu Siwei's side with a smile, and helped pat and tug at the corners of his clothes.
"Oh, I forgot, I haven't gotten the cotton here yet. Where did the cotton come from?"
Only then did Gu Siwei remember that he had been busy during this period and forgot to plant the cotton seeds given by his sister-in-law. How could this cotton-padded jacket be made without cotton?
Wu Meiling said with a smile: "The Sicui one is something we have in our family. The clothes you are wearing were given to you by Uncle Fulin. Originally, he was planning to save some money to make a coat next year, but I heard that you are going to make a coat. So he brought it to me."
After hearing this, Gu Siwei felt a little moved in his heart. This cotton will be nothing in a few decades, but it is different now, and it is different when it is placed in Shimo Village.
If someone is willing to give it to you for use, this is love. If nothing else, Siwei must remember this love.
Wu Meiling took two steps back, looked at the coat on Gu Siwei's body, and said with satisfaction: "The upper body of this new clothes looks energetic!"
Gu Siwei didn't know how to answer, so he could only grin stupidly.
After Wu Meiling said that, she went into the house and carried Gu Siwei's changed clothes out.
"I'll take these clothes back and wash them for you."
"That's not possible, sister-in-law, I can do it myself." Gu Siwei quickly stopped Wu Meiling.
Sicui also came over at this time, wanting to snatch the clothes from Wu Meiling.
"Auntie, I can wash my brother's clothes. I can wash them. They are clean after I wash them."
So just like that, the three people started to grab it.
Gu Siwei had strength, but it was not easy for him to fight with a woman, and this was not a fight, so his strength was not used at all.
Wu Meiling said to Gu Siwei: "Brother Siwei, don't be polite to me. Why should we be so polite? If you do this again, I won't dare to come next time."
Wu Meiling's family is all grateful to Gu Siwei, not for anything else but for the ten kilograms of white noodles. Wu Meiling and his wife felt that they had been owed a favor by Gu Siwei, so they naturally wanted to repay them.
Kind-hearted people are always like this, that is, they don't remember the kindness they do to others. They always remember the kindness they do to themselves and think about giving more back.
Gu Siwei has never seen this posture before. After living for two generations, no one except his mother has rushed to wash his clothes.
"Then I'll trouble my sister-in-law." Gu Siwei was a little embarrassed.
"What's so embarrassing about this?" Wu Meiling was very happy.
"Oh, I forgot that there were some scraps left. I took it upon myself to make two pairs of shoes for you and Sicui each."
"this……".
For a moment, Gu Siwei really didn't know what to say. He was helping to make clothes for free, and he still wanted to make shoes for himself with some scraps left?
Are all kind-hearted people in this era so enlightened?
It makes people's hearts warm.
"As for helping us, besides, we don't have much land, and there isn't much work in the fields." Wu Meiling looked a little disappointed when she talked about the land.
The couple really doesn't have much land, and the family has quite a lot of people. There is not even an old one, but there are three young ones. There are five people in the family. With just a few pieces of land, it is impossible for these five people to have enough to eat. .
Gu Siwei also knew that, after thinking about it for a moment, he suddenly had a plan in mind.
When he arrived in the village, the two families that helped him the most were Liu Fulin and Wu Meiling. What did the two families lack most now?
It's not Gu Siwei's relief. As the old saying goes, helping people in emergencies does not help the poor, and it's not a problem to always provide relief. Don't good people have dignity? They always rely on him to live on Gu Siwei.
If this continues, good people may be spoiled.
For others, the whole land is difficult because most of the mountains here are stone mountains and the soil is shallow and not suitable for growing crops.
But it's really not a big deal for Gu Siwei, not to mention that the soil dug to fill the Yinsongya Hulu Valley hasn't been dumped yet.
It wasn't that Gu Siwei didn't want to dump him, but that he was busy during this period and forgot about it.
Of course, you are right to say that Gu Siwei was too lazy.
Although he had an idea, Gu Siwei didn't say anything now. After chatting with Wu Meiling for a while, Wu Meiling went back to help wash Gu Siwei's clothes.
Gu Siwei and Sicui entered the room.
