Chapter 237 Reunion
Chapter 237 Reunion
Guan Youshuang looked closely and found that it was Gu Errong.
He was sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling.
He had just had his hair cut, still a standard buzz cut, but his temples were shaved very short, making him look more energetic than before.
Today he was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt and gray shorts. Compared to his previous clothes where he would button his clothes meticulously to his neck, he seemed several years younger.
Guan Youshuang rubbed her eyes: "Why did you come back suddenly?"
Gu Errong smiled and helped her put the hair behind her ears, saying, "Why, don't you want me to come back?"
Dude, she specially styled the hair on both sides to make her face look smaller.
She calmly put her hair down again and said, "No, I mean, isn't today Monday? Can you take a day off?"
"Mom called and said Xiaoyun did well in the exam. She asked me to come back someday so we can have dinner together. I took a leave and came back."
"Well, Xiaoyun is really great. How many days of leave did you take?"
"Just half a day today, leaving early tomorrow morning."
"Okay, let's eat tonight. You're driving, right? We'll go to the market later to buy some vegetables and prepare them early."
Gu Errong nodded and said, "If there is trouble at home, why don't we go to Manxiangyuan Restaurant?"
"That's fine. I'll tell my sister-in-law and the others later. Let's go early. I don't know if there's any room left at Manxiang Garden today."
"Then I'll go to the hotel and take a look."
Gu Errong stood up.
Suddenly, the door rang.
Guan Youshuang opened the curtains and saw that it was Huang Chunyan, so she got up and put on her shoes.
"Mom." Huang Chunyan shouted, "Mom, are you home?"
"I'm here." Wang Huiying answered from the main room.
"Oh, that's great. Did you hear? Our Xiaoyun got the first place in the county."
Guan Youshuang said to Gu Errong, "Since my sister-in-law is here, I'll tell her. Let's go to the market together later."
Gu Errong nodded.
The two of them came to the main house together.
"Sister-in-law." Guan Youshuang said with a smile, "I was just about to look for you. Let's go to the restaurant to eat together later."
"Oh, it's too expensive to go to a restaurant, let's just cook at home. You're a good cook, I can help you. Is Errong back too?"
Gu Errong nodded.
"It's rare for our family to get together, so it's okay to go to a restaurant for a meal." Guan Youshuang said, "Brother should be home too, please tell him that Errong and I are going to the market to see if there are any seats available at Manyuanxiang."
"Okay, then you guys drive slowly."
Guan Youshuang followed Gu Errong out.
"Can you please let me get out of the car?"
Gu Errong looked at the mountain road in front of him and said, "This road is not easy to drive on. Let me do it."
"It will open sooner or later. Besides, didn't you see it last time? I will open it."
"Okay, then come on, slow down."
Gu Errong said this as he helped Guan Youshuang open the driver's door.
Guan Youshuang sat in the car, adjusted the rearview mirror, stepped on the clutch and brake, released the handbrake, and slowly started the car.
As soon as I arrived at the village entrance, the village chief’s wife Fu Ruihua happened to come over carrying a basket.
At first, she didn't notice that it was Guan Youshuang who was driving. She just habitually thought it was Gu Errong, so she greeted him, "When did Errong come back? Are you leaving now?"
Guan Youshuang stepped on the brakes.
Gu Errong rolled down the right window and said, "Go out for a moment. Has my sister-in-law gone to the fields?"
Fu Ruihua was stunned, then looked towards the driver's seat and was shocked. This was terrible, the person driving was actually Guan Youshuang!
"Ah, Er, Errong's wife, why are you driving?"
Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "Yes, sister-in-law, I just learned it. How is it?"
"Ah, it's quite good."
"Then sister-in-law, you guys are busy, we'll leave first."
Guan Youshuang released the brake and the car drove out.
Fu Ruihua watched the car disappear from her sight, then touched her chest and let out a long sigh.
The road conditions were indeed bad, especially after leaving the village, where the roads were full of turns, but because of her solid driving foundation in her previous life, she drove very steadily, and soon the car arrived at the market.
Guan Youshuang pulled over perfectly.
Manxiangshui is the largest restaurant in this market. The owner is from another place and he serves authentic Sichuan cuisine which tastes especially good. Therefore, compared with other small restaurants, the prices are relatively high.
But even so, there are still a lot of people going to the restaurant every day during holidays, and sometimes it is even impossible to get a seat.
They were lucky today. There were not many people in the restaurant, so the boss arranged a private room for them.
Guan Youshuang asked Gu Errong if anyone in her family had any food taboos, and then ordered twenty dishes.
10 meat dishes, 8 vegetarian dishes, and 2 soups.
She agreed to serve the food at 5pm.
*
Four fifty.
The whole family arrived at the hotel.
Gu Yunliang and Wang Huiying sat opposite the door. To Wang Huiying’s right was Yuanyuan, followed by Huang Chunyan and Gu Ruyi.
There is a special place for serving food at the door.
The other side.
Sitting on Gu Yunliang’s left was Gu Xiaoyun, and next to him were Guan Youshuang and Gu Errong.
Seeing the big customer coming, the waiter quickly served tea and water, and ten minutes later, the dishes were served as scheduled.
Braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, twice-cooked pork, shredded pork with fish flavor, Kung Pao chicken, boiled beef, etc.
They are all home-cooked dishes, but they are delicious and tasty.
When Yuanyuan saw so many delicious foods, he couldn't help but start drooling.
There happened to be a plate of braised pork next to him, and he immediately picked up a piece of it from the plate.
Huang Chunyan glanced at the others, slapped his hand hard, and scolded: "Who told you to hold it with your hands?"
The braised pork fell on the table.
Yuanyuan picked it up again and put it into his mouth.
Gu Ruyi frowned and said, "Yuanyuan, grandpa and grandma haven't even started eating yet, how can you eat first? That's rude."
"I just took a bite first, there's nothing wrong with it." Yuanyuan muttered.
Gu Ruyi shouted angrily: "Stand up right there."
Yuanyuan lowered his head and stood up.
"Stand at the door."
Huang Chunyan was unhappy.
She said, "Hey, what are you doing? If the child did something wrong, you should just tell him. Why are you making him stand at the door? Are you not going to let him eat?"
"I'm educating my child, could you please stop interrupting?"
Huang Chunyan was stunned, then she said sharply: "Am I wrong? Why would the child eat first? It's because he's greedy. As a father, if you can buy meat for him every day, do you think he will still be greedy?"
"Okay, it's a rare family gathering, what's the point of arguing?" Wang Huiying said, "It's just a piece of meat, what's the big deal?"
"Mom, you saw it just now. I don't have to argue with him. Look at him..."
"That's enough." Wang Huiying interrupted her and said, "As a woman, you still have to give men some face outside."
Huang Chunyan bit her lower lip and said nothing.
