Chapter 38 Repay with Qiong Yao

After dinner, Deok-sun helped her mother wash the dishes, Bora went back to her room to study, and Gu Yu, Sung Dong-yi, and Yu Hui watched TV in the living room.

Let's just say it's all living rooms. As mentioned before, Cheng Dongyi had to live in the basement because he had given a guarantee. There are three vertical rooms. The outermost is the kitchen, the middle is the living room, the dining room and the bedroom of the couple's youngest son, and the innermost is the room for the two sisters. Each room is only about 10 square meters.

"Uncle, I have something to ask of you and aunt."

"Gu Yu, don't be so polite. If you have anything to say, just tell me. Uncle will do his best to help."

Cheng Dongyi was indeed a good man and was warm-hearted to everyone, but it made his wife and children suffer.

"Uncle, you know I'm going to be a senior next school year, and my studies will be very intense. Now that my parents are not around, it's hard for me to have the time and energy to cook every day, but eating fast food every day is not good for my health, so I want to eat at your house, and I'd like to trouble Auntie to prepare my lunch box for me every day."

Gu Yu turned to face Cheng Dongyi and asked sincerely and seriously.

"Gu Yu, this is a small matter. Don't worry. From today on, you will eat at our house. Haha, your aunt's cooking skills are impeccable. Yihua, Yihua, come here."

Cheng Dongyi agreed immediately and called his wife in.

"Gu Yu will be in his third year of high school soon. He usually doesn't have time to cook, so he will eat with us from now on. Remember to prepare a lunch box for him every day."

"Of course you can, Gu Yu. I just hope you don't mind that the food at my aunt's house may not be very rich."

Yihua also agreed, but she looked a little embarrassed because the situation at home was indeed a bit bad.

"Auntie, to be honest, every time I eat the food you cook, I feel like I'm at home. Also, this is my food allowance, please accept it."

Gu Yu took out the prepared envelope and handed it to Yihua with both hands.

"Gu Yu, what are you doing? How can your auntie take your money? Take it back quickly." Yihua waved her hands in panic.

"Gu Yu, kid, does your uncle and aunt need a bite of food from you? It's just a matter of having one more pair of chopsticks. Take it back." Cheng Dongyi also advised, holding down Gu Yu with his hand, trying to push the envelope back.

"Uncle, aunt, please listen to me patiently. This is not just about the extra pair of chopsticks. You have to prepare lunch boxes for me every day, which is very hard. Moreover, I have to spend money to eat out. I can give the money to aunt and still have a satisfying meal. Why not?"

What Gu Yu said made a lot of sense, and Cheng Dongyi and Li Yihua didn’t know how to refuse for a moment.

"Also, uncle and aunt, you know my situation. If you don't accept the food money, I will feel bad and will have to buy food outside. If I get sick from eating too much, I'm afraid it will delay my studies and even my college entrance examination."

"Oh, okay, Yihua, just accept it. What Gu Yu said makes sense. Just make more delicious food for him in the future." Facing Gu Yu's persistence, Cheng Dongyi had no choice but to agree.

"Auntie, if you did it just for me, I would still feel uneasy. It would increase your hard work and it's not what I wanted."

Li Yihua looked at the sensible child in front of her, sighed softly, and could only take the envelope.

"Gu Yu, if you want to eat anything, be sure to tell your aunt. I really hope that Sister Quan can see how sensible you are."

As Li Yihua spoke, her eyes became a little moist and her voice choked up.

"Hey, what are you doing? Why are you saying this in front of Gu Yu? Cook more of his favorite dishes in the future." Cheng Dongyi was worried that his wife would evoke Gu Yu's memories of his parents, so he hurriedly said with a hint of scolding.

"It's Auntie's fault, Gu Yu, you can chat with Uncle. Auntie still needs to wash the dishes."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Looking at the sensible Gu Yu, Li Yihua almost couldn't hold back her tears and hurried out of the living room.

"Uncle, this is the key to my house. I come home late every day, so I have to trouble you to deliver the lunch box to my house."

"What's the trouble? Gu Yu, don't be polite. From now on, we will get along like a family."

After a while, seeing that it was getting late, Gu Yu stood up and said goodbye and left. Deshan snatched the task of sending Gu Yu off from Yuhui.

"Gu Yu, see you tomorrow."

Deshan sent Gu Yu to the gate, with a shy smile on her face, and said goodbye to him softly.

"Haha, see you tomorrow. By the way, this is for you."

Gu Yu took out a sunscreen from his pocket and handed it to Deshan with a smile.

"While working hard for the Olympics, we can't let our Deok-sun get tanned."

Gu Yu turned around and went home, while Deshan, holding the sunscreen tightly in her little hand, stared blankly at Gu Yu's background, then smiled happily and ran home happily.

"Mom, Dad, I'm back, what's up?"

Deok-sun saw the whole family sitting in the living room, including Bora, and her parents looked embarrassed, so she asked curiously.

"Sister, the food allowance that Brother Gu Yu gave is too much." Yu Hui pulled her second sister to sit down and pointed at the envelope.

"How much did you give?"

"25."

"What!" Deshan was surprised by the number, "This is too much, isn't Dad's monthly salary only 25 yuan now?"

“Yeah, that’s why my parents are in such a difficult situation.” Yu Hui nodded.

"Wouldn't it be better to return some of it?"

"But Brother Gu Yu also wrote a note. I just asked my elder sister. This is a Chinese poem. It says, 'You gave me a peach, and I gave you a jade. It's not a reward, but a token of our everlasting friendship.'"

Deok-sun was completely confused. She hadn't even learned Korean well, so she didn't understand the Chinese Han Dynasty poetry at all.

"It means...it means...that, big sister, you should tell me, I forgot."

Yuhui is even worse at studying than Deok-sun, and he has forgotten what Bora just said. Looking at his brother who was scratching his head and his sister who was confused, Bora rolled her eyes.

“In simple terms, Gu Yu said this is a way to repay a favor, so don’t refuse it, and hope to be closer to our family in the future.”

"Repay a favor? Our family has never helped him with anything." Deok-sun still didn't understand after listening to her sister's explanation.

"This is a virtue of the Chinese people, emphasizing small favors and big returns. Before Gu Yu's parents passed away, we neighbors helped take care of him and cared about him. He remembered it in his heart. This child has become a man."

Cheng Dongyi answered his daughter's question and sighed. Deshan probably understood the cause and effect and felt better about Gu Yu.

"So, we won't return it to Brother Gu Yu, right?" Yu Hui asked cautiously from the side.

"Just accept this kid's kindness. What Gu Yu lacks now is not money. We should treat him like a family member in the future. We can spend money to improve the food quality. The children are all in school, so they need to keep up with their nutrition."

Hearing her husband's decision, Yihua nodded silently, feeling even more pity for Gu Yu, and made a better decision for the child.

Deshan and Yuhui were also very happy. It seemed that the family’s living standard would improve, and they would probably be able to eat meat for every meal in the future.

Paula sat aside, recalling Gu Yu's performance today. She was very satisfied with the child. In her mind, Gu Yu was temporarily ranked first among the good kids in the alley.

When Gu Yu returned home, he breathed a sigh of relief. He finally solved the problem of cooking every day and was able to help Deshan's family, killing two birds with one stone.

I don’t know what to do with the sudden update of the task. I am indeed a little tempted, firstly for the person, and secondly for the reward given by the system.

Sisters: You will become the public enemy of alley men, but being with Chunlan and Qiuju is also the dream of many men.

The reward is 500 world points and there are three draws.
