Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

After doing a good job in ideological work with Comrade Liu Xiao'e, the head of the family, Lin Shu turned to his two sisters-in-law.

After telling them a story about a man fishing and the fish also fishing him, it immediately aroused the interest of the two sisters-in-law.

He Caiyun asked: "Little sister, you said there are fish that pretend to be dead in the water and deliberately lure people into deep water?"

"Of course, there are all kinds of things in this world. Stories come from life." Lin Shu nodded.

"Hearing what you said, we really have to be careful if we encounter this kind of situation by the water. Never try to take advantage of small gains, or you may lose your life without knowing how." Lu Yinhua was still frightened after hearing this story.

"All things in the world have spirits. There must be a reason why a big fish suddenly floats to the surface of the water." Lin Shu hoped that Lu Yinhua would take his words to heart and tell the ferryman tomorrow when they cross the river, so that he would at least be alert.

As for why he let it go after hearing this story, Lin Shu could only say that everyone has his own destiny, and if you interfere too much, who knows who will be punished in the end.

The two sisters-in-law turned pale with fright.

......

After two days of drying, the dirt road was basically dry, but some large puddles still had water in them, but this did not prevent bicycles from passing by.

Lin Shu got up, ate two rice dumplings, and left the village carrying a basket on her back. As for Lin Gang and her eldest nephew Lin Dongfa, who wanted to go to the county town to sell loaches and eels, they were left behind.

It took three hours to ride all the way to the county town.

"Why are you here? I was planning to go to your house to celebrate the festival in the next two days." Gu Jiu opened the door and was delighted to find that the person outside was Lin Shu.

He hurried out to help push the bicycle in and took the basket off her back.

Gu Jiu felt the weight of the basket and asked with a smile, "Did you bring something for me?"

"My mother wanted to send you some rice dumplings for the holiday, as a way of thanking you for helping me get my older brothers into the power supply station." Lin Shu's brows relaxed as he looked at the handsome guy in front of him, and all the fatigue he had felt along the way seemed to disappear.

Sure enough, no matter men or women, young or old, everyone loves beauty.

Even an old lady like her would feel better when she saw the handsome young man, not to mention other things.

"Zongzi?" Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Lin Shu would go to the county town to bring them Zongzi. "I love this. The Zongzi you sent me can satisfy my craving."

Lin Shu found a chair and sat down, then asked curiously, "Aren't you going back to the provincial capital for the Dragon Boat Festival?"

Gu Jiu cleared out the items in the basket and said, "No, I'm not going back. I'm just going to celebrate the festival. It's too tiring to drive back and forth."

"Did you carry these calamus and mugwort leaves from home or did you get them on the way?"

Gu Jiu took out two large bundles of herbs and hung them in the corridor.

Lin Shu picked up the fan on the table and fanned himself. "These two kinds of herbs are everywhere in the countryside, but it's not convenient to buy them in the city. I brought them to you just to suit the occasion. As the old saying goes, plant willows during Qingming Festival and hang mugwort during Dragon Boat Festival. They'll be perfect for the Dragon Boat Festival. Hang them in front of the door to repel insects and ward off evil spirits."

Gu Jiu poured her a cup of warm water, feeling happy, "Thank you for thinking of me and sending Ai Ye here from such a long distance."

Lin Shu paused as he fanned himself, the corner of his mouth twitching, "It's good that you know."

Gu Jiu took out the rice dumplings from the basket and put them on the table. "Why did you bring so many? Is there another portion for Xu Ming?"

"Yes, half for each of you."

Gu Jiu was jealous, "You are my wife, why do you always think about that boy every time you come up?"

Lin Shu's face turned red. He had never been a wife in his two lifetimes. "Don't talk nonsense. I'm not your wife yet."

"It's only a matter of time." Speaking of this topic, Gu Jiu smiled slyly and asked, "By the way, last time I told you to bring a letter of introduction signed by the director of women's affairs next time you come up, did you bring it?"

Lin Shu wanted to touch her forehead. She was still thinking that this boy had lost interest in registering, but she didn't expect that more than a month had passed and he still hadn't given up. "Forgot."

"Forgot?" Gu Jiu tapped her forehead, very angry, "Why didn't you forget to bring your brain?"

Lin Shu pointed at the basket and said with a guilty conscience, "I care about you more. Those beans and peppers are grown by my family, so I brought some up for you."

Sensing Gu Jiu's dangerous look, Lin Shu quickly added, "All the vegetables are prepared for you. There is no portion for Xu Ming."

"You just perfunctorily dealt with what I asked you to do and you want to get rid of me with just some vegetables?" Gu Jiu supported himself with his hands on both sides of the chair armrests, leaving Lin Shu sitting on the chair unable to move.

How could an old lady like Lin Shu be afraid of his pretentious look? She just couldn't show it on her face.

She asked weakly, "What else do you want?"

Gu Jiu pinched her chin with one hand, forcing her to raise her head. When he met her lively eyes under her thick eyelashes, Gu Jiu's breathing stagnated and he lowered his head to gently bite her lips.

"You are punished to stay here with me tonight. I will accompany you back to the village tomorrow and give a festival gift to my mother-in-law."

Lin Shu was startled and opened his lips slightly, which instantly allowed Gu Jiu to take advantage of the opportunity, rush in, and plunder the pond and seize the land.

Just when the two were gasping for breath, Lin Shu had difficulty breathing and punched him a few times. Damn it, this man was too tempting and he almost couldn't control himself.

Gu Jiu let her go, leaned his hands on the chair, looked at the girl with a red face, covering her mouth and looking helpless, and a happy laugh came from his throat.

However, he lowered his head to look at his waist, and there was a hint of madness in his eyes that paused for a moment, then his handsome face turned red, and he turned around and went into the bathroom.

Lin Shu blinked, and when he saw the man rushed into the bathroom and didn't come out for a long time, he smiled slyly. Only then did he have time to look around his room.

It seemed that nothing had changed since the last time I came. The only change was the patio of Si Shui Gui Tang, where a lot of rainwater had accumulated and a few water lilies were planted in it. There were also a few pots of shade-loving flowers and plants placed next to the well, and they were all growing well.

For some old blue brick buildings, adding a touch of green is very eye-catching, adding a bit of spring color to the entire hall and making people feel bright.

"Do you like these bonsai pots?" Gu Jiu's voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Lin Shu just smiled slightly: "I like it."

"After we register, you can decorate the house, how about that?" Gu Jiu squatted beside her and asked tentatively in a low voice.

"It's too early to imagine the future without even a clue." Lin Shu couldn't help but pour cold water on him.

"How come it's too early?" Gu Jiu pointed outside the door. "If you want to register, we can go back to your house today to get a letter of introduction, and come up to register tomorrow, how about that?"

He couldn't register now, and this girl kept telling him it was too early.

"You and I live in different circles. Are you so confident that we can live a good life in the future?" Lin Shu asked.

Gu Jiu stared at her lively eyes seriously, "As long as we work hard, we can always live better than others."

There was a trace of confusion in Lin Shu's eyes. At this moment, Gu Jiu gave her an illusion that the man in front of her was a mature man who had experienced a lot.

She shook her head and put aside this illusion. "A happy life is based on economic foundation. Poor couples have many sorrows. So, let's not talk about marriage now. We will talk about it after we save enough money."

"It's not too late to earn money after registering. I, your man, still have the ability to support the family."

"......" Is this man addicted to self-entertainment?

All she talks about is mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and you and my man.
