Chapter 362 They are all my brothers
Shen Shuyu felt very comfortable at home, but Gu Jiandong, who was in the army, was not used to it at all. He felt so lonely when he returned home, without Bai Luobo coming out to greet him, and he was not used to not having his sweet and soft wife hug him when he went to bed at night.
Although he was not used to it, he had no intention of calling Shen Shuyu back. Shuyu had been away from home for so long, and if she went back she would definitely stay for a while and spend time with her grandparents.
He just acts like a spoiled brat a lot on the phone. It's because he has a high salary and can afford to make phone calls. If it were someone else, who would be willing to spend that money?
Shen Shuyu also indulged him, "Okay, I know you miss me, and I miss you too, I will go back after a while."
Because of training, Gu Jiandong was not able to spend much time with Liao. After hanging up the phone, Liu Yueyuan and Xiaoqiu looked at her with a teasing look on their faces and imitated her tone of voice, "Okay, I know you miss me, and I miss you too~"
Nowadays, couples are very reserved in expressing their affection for each other. It is rare for Shen Shuyu to say something as straightforward as "I miss you". Even if she does, they would say it in the room with their spouses, not on the phone outside like she did.
Shen Shuyu was not shy at all when they teased her, "You should all learn from me. Men love this."
Shen Qiu seemed to be thinking about something, and Liu Yueyuan said that she had learned something. "I heard that. Your man on the other end of the phone must have jumped up with excitement."
Shen Shuyu works as a telephone operator and gets along well with her colleague Liu Yueyuan. When Liu Yueyuan knew that Shen Shuyu was back, she asked Shen Qiu to call Shen Shuyu out so that she could treat her to a meal.
Shen Shuyu looked at the time and waited for them to come out when it was almost time for them to get off work. They had lunch at a state-owned restaurant at noon. There were no meat dishes today. Only noodles and dumplings were written on the blackboard. The three of them ordered a serving of dumplings.
Shen Shuyu was not the type to let herself down. She ordered two more servings because one was not enough.
"You have a really good appetite now. Fortunately, your man is capable, otherwise he really can't afford to support you."
Shen Qiu continued, "My eldest sister doesn't need my brother-in-law to support her. She has a job and can support herself. My eldest sister is amazing."
"Yes, yes, I know your elder sister is amazing."
The three of them chatted and laughed until they were full before leaving the restaurant. The money for the dumplings was given by Liu Yueyuan, and Shen Shuyu did not fight with her for it, thinking that it would be the same if she invited him back in two days.
They still had some time and passed by a photo studio. Shen Qiu said she wanted to take a photo with her elder sister. She now had a job and received a salary every month, so she was willing to take photos.
Shen Shuyu herself had a camera, but she didn't take it back from the army.
Nowadays, the only way to take photos is to go to a photo studio. Shen Shuyu doesn't mind spending a few dollars. What she cares about is that the old photographers in the photo studio are a bit perfunctory when taking photos.
As soon as they sat down, he pressed the camera and said the picture was ready with a click. They hadn't adjusted their poses yet, and I don't know whether they opened their eyes in the picture.
They agreed to print two color photos. When the two sisters left the photo studio, Shen Qiu and her elder sister murmured, "Sister, why do I feel that the photos taken at the photo studio are not as good as the ones we took ourselves?"
They haven't seen the photos now but the master was so casual that she felt the photos were not very good.
"You'll know once you get the photos. If you're not satisfied, wait until I get the camera back next time and we can take the photos ourselves."
When she and Gu Jiandong went to the Northwest, they forgot to bring their camera with them. If they had taken a camera, they could have taken a few photos with their parents, and they could have taken photos of their uncle and aunt so that their grandparents could see them.
"Okay, we'll take two photos when you come back next time."
Shen Qiu and Liu Yueyuan had to go to work in the morning, so when they arrived at the commune, Shen Shuyu separated from them.
Shen Shuyu went to the black market in the city, sold more than a thousand kilograms of grain, and went home quickly with a stack of big unity banknotes.
Money is a really good thing. Thinking of the money in the space, Shen Shuyu felt so good that she didn’t have any worries at all.
It didn't snow today, so Shen Shuyu went home, parked her bicycle, and told her grandparents that she was going up the mountain. She was pregnant, and Old Man and Old Lady Shen were worried about her going up the mountain alone.
"My dear, if you want to eat meat, we can buy it. It's so cold, let's not go up the mountain. Grandma is worried."
"Grandma, it's okay. I want to go for a walk in the mountains."
This child has her own ideas. Old Man Shen and Old Lady Shen can't do anything to their granddaughter. They are reluctant to say anything harsh. "You can go up the mountain. Let your eldest brother go with you."
"Okay, then big brother, accompany me up the mountain."
Shen Jiabao, who was still sleeping in bed, was called out by his grandfather. Shen Jiabao was still very sleepy, but when he heard that he was going up the mountain with his elder sister, he forced himself to turn on the phone, grabbed a handful of snow and rubbed it on his face, which made him grimaced in the cold and he woke up instantly.
Shen Shuyu, who was watching from the side, said: It’s really hard for her elder brother.
The two brothers went out with the backpack on their backs and met Jinbao and Goudan who were out playing. "Brother Jiabao, Sister Shuyu, where are you going?"
"Do you want to go to the mountain?"
"Go, let's go pick up some branches to burn."
Most of the branches in the house were picked up by the little kids. They are sensible and when they see there are not many branches left at home, they will go up the mountain to pick them up.
The snow on the road was very thick, and we had to wade through it step by step. It took twice as long as usual to go up the mountain.
Shen Jiabao was afraid that his elder sister would fall, so he found a handy wooden stick for her to use as a support when walking.
Shen Jinbao held Jin Yi in his arms and took care of her, "Sister Shu Yu, please walk slowly. Be careful not to fall."
"Okay, Sister Shu Yu got it."
This kid carried the goose with him every day. Even when he went to work, he would bring the goose with him. Wherever he was, there was his goose. Shen Jiabao had long wanted to ask him, "Jinbao, you carry the goose with you every day. Aren't you tired?"
"Not tired, they are all my brothers. How can it be tiring to lead my own brothers?"
"Why not leave it at home?"
"If I leave them at home, my mother will hate my brothers. She doesn't like Jin Yi, Jin Er, and Jin San."
How could Wu Hua be happy with this? These three geese sons kept saying that they were raised for Shen Shuyu, not for their family. Wu Hua was so angry that she wanted to kick her sons out of the house.
"My mother is obsessed with eating Jin Yi, Jin Er, and Jin San. I always sleep with them in my arms. My mother can't even touch a goose feather. Sister Shu Yu, am I great?"
Shen Shuyu touched his head, "Jinbao is the best."
"Your mother can't eat it, but your sister Shu Yu can eat it?" Shen Jiabao had heard him say many times that he wanted to stew his brother for his older sister to eat.
"Of course Sister Shuyu can eat them. These three geese are raised by Sister Shuyu and Brother Jiandong. They are very kind to me. I don't have anything good to give away, so I can only give the geese to Sister Shuyu to show my appreciation."
Shen Shuyu was touched by the cute little Jinbao again today. "Jinbao, if Sister Shuyu catches a rabbit, I will roast it for you and leave the rabbit legs for Jinbao."
