Chapter 1042
Uncle Wu happily took the copper plate from Gu Jiujiu's hand, and said with a smile in a good mood, "Xiao Jiu, with this money, Uncle Wu can buy more meat and cook it for Brother Zhuang. .”

"Father, eat meat." Just as Uncle Gu finished his words, Brother Zhuang came in from the main room with his short legs holding the cloth tiger in his arms.

Uncle Gu looked at his son cheerfully, "Tomorrow, Dad will go to the butcher shop to buy your favorite lean meat, and I will cook a pot of broth for you."

Hearing Uncle Gu's words, Brother Zhuang pursed his lips unconsciously, as if he could already smell the aroma of broth.

He likes to eat the broth stewed by his father best.

Seeing Brother Zhuang sipping his saliva, Gu Wushu was immediately amused by his cute expression, "You little guy, you eat at your uncle's natal house every day, why are you so greedy?"

"Brother Zhuang is not greedy. Brother Zhuang just likes to eat the broth cooked by his father." Brother Zhuang raised his head and said softly.

"Oh? Really?" Uncle Gu was stunned for a moment, then hugged his son into his arms and took a sip, "Brother Zhuang likes to eat the broth cooked by Dad. Eat enough, okay?"

"Okay." Brother Zhuang nodded excitedly, then pointed to Gu Jiujiu and sister Yuan and said, "Father, let's invite elder sister and younger sister to eat at my house."

It was rare for Uncle Wu's family to eat meat, so Gu Jiujiu was too embarrassed to eat it.

Besides, Gu Jiujiu's family is not short of this. In addition to most of the uneaten chicken, there is also a small half bucket of fresh river prawns in the kitchen.

So, after Brother Zhuang finished speaking, Gu Jiujiu didn't wait for Uncle Wu to open his mouth, and pinched Brother Zhuang's face with a smile and said, "Big sister also has broth at home, so I won't go to your house to eat it." gone."

What Gu Jiujiu said is true. Every day, their family cooks broth or pork bone soup for cooking rice noodles.

Gu Wushu knew that Gu Jiujiu's family was never short of meat. Gu Jiujiu said so, but he didn't insist on inviting Gu Jiujiu to his house. He just smiled honestly and said, "Xiao Jiu, the pork pies made by Uncle Wu are good. Eat, when you were young, you loved pestering Fifth Uncle to make pork pies for you, and when they are ready tomorrow, Fifth Uncle will send you some."

The pork cakes made by Gu Wushu were really delicious, fragrant and soft, so Gu Jiujiu didn't refuse anymore, "Then I'll be here first to thank Uncle Wu."

"What can I thank you for? It's just a few pancakes." Uncle Gu finished with a smile, said a few words to Gu Jiujiu, and then went back with Brother Zhuang in his arms.

In the evening, as soon as Shen Kuo went back, he handed over a bank note to Gu Jiujiu, "Xiao Jiu, this bank note is the monthly money given by the yamen this month, you keep it, you can buy whatever you want, or whatever you want Use it to buy."

Since Shen Kuo became the county magistrate, his monthly salary was several times higher than before.

Gu Jiujiu smiled and collected the money that Shen Kuo gave her, and then took out the small stack of banknotes given to her by Gu Wushu from his arms, "Master, look, this is the rent that Wushu took back today. money."

Shen Kuo glanced at the banknotes in his little wife's hand indifferently. There were so many, at least a few hundred taels, "Xiao Jiu, did your fifth uncle collect the rent for you so quickly?"

Shen Kuo didn't know that Gu Wushu was very familiar with the farmers in that village, so he was as surprised as Gu Jiujiu was at the time.

After all, it took less than three days to collect all the rent, which is indeed a bit fast.
