Gu Yanli “…”

He was really pissed off and laughed.

Although he was amused by the situation, Gu Yanli remained silent.

Zhong Meixian then said, "Are you mute?"

Wen Tang turned her head.

Gu Yanli finally spoke, "Didn't you tell my wife to shut up?"

"I'm keeping my eyes closed, aren't I?"

Zhong Meixian was completely confused by him, but one thing was certain: this man was deliberately trying to provoke her.

"Snapped!"

Another slap.

Gu Yanli couldn't help but say, "Mom, people are made of flesh and blood, I'm not made of iron."

Gu Juyuan couldn't help but tug at Zhong Meixian, frowning in disapproval of her actions, "We're talking as a family, what are you doing?"

As Gu Juyuan spoke, he glanced cautiously at Wen Tang. Seeing that Wen Tang's face showed no other expression, he felt slightly relieved.

Gu Juyuan thought: Luckily, my daughter-in-law is a simple-minded girl. Otherwise, if it were someone else, wouldn't people call you a troublesome and unreasonable old woman?

Once your son is married, he's no longer just your son. How can a mother just hit or scold him whenever she wants?

They're already in their twenties or thirties.

If it were someone with a strong personality, it would be strange if they didn't argue!

Gu Juyuan was reminding her to be mindful of her actions.

Zhong Meixian, however, thought that Gu Juyuan was reminding her that the family was discussing important matters and that she shouldn't start a fight with Gu Yanli and delay their business.

Zhong Meixian nodded, "Yes, yes, Tang, please continue."

Wen Tang then continued, "If we can sell them here, we can then exchange them for goods in the name of the brigade and the commune."

"The profits earned can be divided between the brigade and the commune."

"Moreover, we can also find people to work in every household in our brigade, and we'll pay them wages every day."

“The brigade, the commune, and every household all benefit and contribute their labor, so we are not considered private individuals, and thus there is no speculation or profiteering.”

"We are simply driving production."

Wen Tang's words excited Gu Jinfeng and Zhong Meixian. "So, from now on, everyone in the brigade will come to our house to work?"

Wen Tang nodded, "If we ship a lot of goods to other countries, people will want our family to do the work."

"However, we will need to buy quite a few things by then."

"Does it cost money?" Zhong Meixian asked excitedly.

Wen Tang smiled and said, "Yes, Mom, how many do you have?"

In her excitement, Zhong Meixian almost spilled her secrets, but Gu Jinfeng secretly tugged at the back of her dress, bringing Zhong Meixian back to her senses. "We'll see how much you need then!"

Gu Jinfeng also said to Chi Yue, "Xiao Yue, if you need money, just tell Mom and Mom will give you some."

Once everyone realized that the matter was feasible, they stopped worrying about it.

The snow outside was falling heavier and heavier, and it was already dark; it was time for dinner.

Gu Jinfeng suggested, "Let's make a stew with the fried meatballs; it'll keep us warm."

"Perfect timing, there are fried dough sticks available, let's heat them up and eat them together."

No one else had an opinion.

Gu Jinfeng then plunged into the snow.

Lin Liansheng followed behind, saying, "I'll go start the fire, Mom, you rest for a while."

Zhong Meixian didn't go to the kitchen.

There was a little soap left, which Lin Jiaojiao also cut perfectly.

Chi Yue asked Lin Jingshen to bring some newspapers, cut them up, and then packed all the cut pieces of soap into individual packages and put them away.

After finishing their meal and returning to their room, where no one else was around, Gu Yanli asked, "What made you decide to make this soap?"

Wen Tang applied the face cream he had brought back to her face without looking up and said, "Hey, didn't it suddenly get colder at home a few days after you left?"

"Especially when it started raining later, Xiaoyue and I were huddled inside, and it was inconvenient to do anything. We thought to ourselves, how wonderful it would be to have a big house!"

"Building a house costs money!"

"And we're both really craving it. We want to eat braised pork every day, but braised pork costs money," Wen Tang started counting on her fingers.

Gu Yanli walked over, scooped out some face cream, and used it to wipe her hands. "I'll take on more missions, try to earn more bonuses, and strive to get promoted as soon as possible..."

Gu Yanli's first reaction was that he was not capable of earning more money, which was why Wen Tang could not have braised pork every day or live in a spacious brick house. That's why he was sitting with his nephew's wife, racking his brains to think about ways to make money.

After all, love is about constantly feeling indebted.

But Wen Tang interrupted him, "No need, no need."

Wen Tang turned around to face him, "Don't go on too many missions, missions are too dangerous!"

"Also, you're so young and you're already a battalion commander. If you get promoted any higher, how are the others supposed to survive?"

"You don't need to curl it so much."

As Wen Tang spoke, she put her arm around the man's waist, "I don't want any strong man, I just want a man."

"Don't worry, I'll earn money and take good care of you in the future."

Gu Yanli: This is a love that is mutual, no doubt about it.

“Okay,” he said, pulling the person closer, his voice hoarse, “I usually prefer soft foods.”

Wen Tang was thrown into the quilt and really wanted to ask: Brother, when you say "soft," do you mean a specific thing or something in general?

The next day, it was still snowing, and the snow on the ground was already up to the calves.

Lin Liansheng, who was sweeping snow early in the morning, told everyone that he saw the two educated youths surnamed Luo leave with his brother.

Gu Jinfeng simply said, "Are you walking in such heavy snow?"

Lin Liansheng nodded.

Gu Jinfeng clicked her tongue, "They're such a nuisance. They can't stay for more than a few days before they have to come back. They're just suffering for no reason."

"Tell me, why did you insist on coming to the countryside in the first place?"

"It's not like it's happening to her."

Wen Tang said, "I guess he's not quite right in the head."

Gu Jinfeng thought so.

The snow was falling too heavily, and the house was cold, so we started making a fire again.

Wen Tang hurriedly stuffed sweet potatoes into the fire.

Lin Jiaojiao sprinkled some peanuts.

The four girls surrounded the brazier so tightly that it was impossible to get through.

Sitting behind them were Zhong Meixian and Gu Jinfeng.

Gu Yanli stood to the side for a while, then changed into his rubber boots and went out.

Lin Jingshen asked, "Uncle, with such heavy snow, where are you going?"

Gu Yanli put on his hat and said without turning his head, "Let's go for a walk."

He said he was going for a walk, and nobody bothered him.

While waiting for the sweet potatoes to release their aroma, Wen Tang discussed with Chi Yue, "What should we name this soap?"

“Procter & Gamble?” Chi Yue blurted out.

Wen Tang agreed, "I think it's a good name, but I'm afraid we'll really end up in jail."

Lin Jiaojiao asked curiously, "Why?"

Wen Tang quickly shook her head, "It's okay, your peanuts are ready."

Lin Jiaojiao quickly grabbed a stick and started poking at the peanuts.

“Then…” Chi Yue began to ponder deeply.

Wen Tang thought for a moment and then asked, "What do you think of Jiebao?"

Chi Yue "..."

She gave him a thumbs up, "You're such a little genius!"

"This one?"

"I think it's okay."

"What kind of packaging paper do you make?"

Cardboard boxes and plastic boxes were rejected by Wen Tang and Chi Yue, because they were still trying to survive by exploiting loopholes and didn't have much room to maneuver.

But for printing decorative paper, it should be relatively easy to find partners.

When I get back, I can just cut and trim it myself and wrap it up.

When it came to what kind of wrapping paper to make, the two of them, plus Lin Jiaojiao who couldn't sit still, kept discussing it until Gu Yanli came back carrying three wild ducks and two bags of wild duck eggs, and they still hadn't come to a conclusion!
