Chapter 170 The Stability of Life

Nightfall in late autumn in the south is always slightly later than in the north, and the moon looks round at night.

The old couple came over with several bags of raw meat and vegetables. After the young couple received their certificates, Gu's father and Gu's mother also knew the door lock code of the house. This time they did not knock on the door, opened the door lock and walked in, changing into slippers.

"Why is the back of this slipper cracked?"

He asked dissatisfiedly as soon as he came in.

Gu Qiu was taking back the clothes to be dried outside. Hearing his old father's complaints, he responded casually: "Those were left by the landlord. They were shoes from a long time ago and have never been lost."

Father Gu seized the opportunity and continued to ask: "What? Life is very tight? Even the landlord's things are kept for use? If you really don't have money, don't be so stubborn and ask for help. I can help you with some money." "

Why does this old man always think of him as such an imbecile?

Although he was a little speechless, he still didn't refute, just laughed it off: "No, I'm really not at the point where I have to save money on a pair of shoes."

The other party handed the vegetable bag in his hand to his wife, and then simply sat on the sofa: "I don't look down on you, alas... I don't understand the idea of ​​being a father."

A man who wants to start a family, no matter how short of money, must have financial pressure in life. If Gu Qiu can give him a step forward, he, as a father, can naturally contribute hundreds of thousands to help this small business that is about to be established. family.

It's the son who wants to save face, not him.

Gu Qiu probably knew what his father was thinking, and maybe he really wanted to help him, but he felt it was not the right time yet.

He didn't want to save face, but he didn't know how to explain much, so he changed the topic: "Would you like me to go out and buy some wine? There is a very good tobacco and alcohol store next to my community, and it seems that there is Wuliangye in it. On."

Unexpectedly, Father Gu shook his head in refusal: "Why are you drinking something so expensive? I happen to have it myself, it is specially provided for military needs."

It was a special military supply, and I don’t know where the old man got it from.

The display of red fruits.

But it's very simple to rely on connections. My father should know the leaders in the army to get these things that ordinary people can't drink.

The rare things you get for free are indeed more comfortable than buying them with money. For example, things like liquor. In recent years, the army is not allowed to drink alcohol, so most of them are given away.

Gu Qiu piled the clothes he had collected from the balcony on the sofa, and without turning his head, he planned to fold the clothes one by one: "Okay, I'll cook with her later."

She understands who she is, but Gu Qiu is still a little confused about how to address Su Jiuyue in front of her father...

He was actually a little embarrassed when he put Su Jiuyue's underwear together, because his father was watching.

"Are you starting to adapt to a stable life?"

Father Gu suddenly laughed with relief.

He glanced away and responded noncommittally: "When did I not adapt? A stable life is what I have been looking forward to since I was a child."

The old father did not express his opinion, but continued to ask: "Then when will the wedding be held, and at the same time get a child for me and your mother to play with?"

The sudden big question that had the same idea as Su Jiuyue made Gu Qiu's hands shake inadvertently, and then he continued to arrange his clothes as if nothing had happened: "I don't know, this kind of thing... I'm still young now, just let it go. .”

Gu Qiu and Su Jiuyue had briefly discussed this issue some time ago. It was really hard to determine the time. After all, Gu Qiu was only about to be a senior in college.

Moreover, once the wedding is held and the marriage certificate is added, the two people will truly transform from lovers to legal husband and wife. The woman, including herself, may need a little psychological preparation for this kind of thing, or she may need to take a deep breath. The tone is ready.

This topic seems very heavy to many people because it is full of uncertainty, but for him, it has probably become a foregone conclusion, so it is not considered serious.

It's just that this process is a bit difficult. Whether Su Jiuyue is fully ready to become a wife in the family still needs time to settle.

After the father and son were silent for a moment, Gu Qiu said first: "Actually, it's still early. A lot of people don't get married until they are twenty-five years old now. What's more, they haven't all received their certificates. I shouldn't be in a hurry."

Father Gu responded in the most classic way: "It's up to you."

If you let him, then he is too casual.

But this kind of thing cannot be allowed to take its course, because he can't wait to develop into a stable stage with Su Jiuyue, and then build a new family in peace and contentment and work smoothly.

He has already got the job. He can make a living in Lin Fan's company, or he can change jobs after gaining enough work experience. Finally, he and Su Jiuyue can open a cat cafe together with their savings. , have time to be leisurely and comfortable.

Su Jiuyue would not stay with this father and son. Let's not talk about her identity. The main reason is that she feels there is nothing to talk about. It may also be that some topics are not suitable for her as a girl to get involved. This situation is very strange.

It's like a group of girls talking about cosmetics and gossip. Sometimes boys are around and can interrupt, but it's not necessary.

This is a consensus shared by most people. Men and women are different, not only physically, but also in terms of topics. This is a common phenomenon in society and is not determined by rules. This is subtle.

So she went into the kitchen to work with Mother Gu to see what dishes the mother had bought. She had been watching cooking videos online recently. Maybe her cooking skills had reached a peak that she had never had before, so she was a little eager to try it.

She has also tried to cook at home this month. From the beginning, Gu Qiu kept running to the toilet, and now she occasionally gives a thumbs up and smiles with relief. Su Jiuyue has put in a lot.

"Auntie, I'll get these stone crabs and make a dish of garlic crab meat for you tonight. It will definitely be delicious."

Mother Gu looked over after hearing this: "Garlic crab meat? The kind that has to be peeled off first? That's troublesome, isn't it?"

She smiled casually and said, "It's okay. Only troublesome dishes are delicious. I like troublesome dishes."

At the very least, the elders should know that she knows many things and does not know nothing just because of her special status.

Let her 'parents' know that by Gu Qiu's side, she is the one who can make Gu Qiu happy and can share many things.

So, start with your cooking skills.

Anyway...shouldn't it kill people?

Gu Qiu, who was originally sitting on the sofa and keeping a wait-and-see attitude towards the situation in the kitchen, also quietly glanced over.

Although this woman's cooking skills have improved a lot, she still gets frustrated occasionally when cooking unfamiliar dishes... I just hope that everything will be safe today.

……

Thousands of lights are on again, but the moon-gazing people are nowhere to be seen.

Perhaps the custom of admiring the moon has been diluted by the impact of various modern cultures, or maybe staring at the moon is not as practical as playing games and watching videos. Not every household is having a reunion dinner. Gu Qiu is very happy that his family now has the atmosphere of a holiday dinner. It is a pity that his family does not have many relatives in this city. For family dinners and the like, it is not easy to invite a few of his young friends. It doesn't seem appropriate, plus they have to be with their respective families...

As soon as the bottle is opened, the aroma of wine overflows.

Gu's father gave his son and... uh, daughter-in-law two drinks, and at the same time said: "It's given by the army. Most people can't drink this kind of drink. By the way, Aqiu, your unit has been looking for you recently." That unit shouldn’t be an unscrupulous company, right? The kind that occasionally calls people back to work during holidays.”

This era has encountered a special period. The economy is somewhat sluggish. In order to make money, everyone is involved. Some unscrupulous private companies even squeeze their own employees' holiday time.

Or the kind of front-line personnel, no matter which unit they work in, they have to go out immediately when there are tasks and arrangements.

Father Gu was afraid that his son would step into a trap.

Gu Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It won't happen. My job is in a company under my roommate's name. It's too late for them to take care of me."

As an ordinary housewife, Gu's mother didn't understand the rules and regulations of finding a job in this era. She frowned a little incomprehensively: "Why bother my classmates? Ah Qiu, you are also a college student. You really can't find one." The right job?”

Gu Qiu didn't want to explain anything that might create a generation gap:

"It would be great if it really goes that smoothly."

Su Jiuyue looked at the family and couldn't help but smile faintly. She was secretly glad that her brain circuit was different from that of normal humans. She was more accepting of the changes of the times and was not confused about this and that just because of her age. …

There is a common phenomenon in human society.

The older a person gets, the generation gap between him and his parents will be much smaller, and it will no longer be the thought of his youth.

Maybe it’s because I’m watching my parents get older, or maybe I’ve figured it out. Many things are no longer as arbitrary as they used to be, and families need to take care of each other.

Gu Qiu drank all the wine in front of her. Su Jiuyue noticed that this guy quietly poured herself another glass of wine. However, Gu Qiu also noticed that she glanced over, so she didn't fill it up for herself as well.

He said softly to Su Jiuyue: "I'll drink less."

But the other party shook his head: "It's okay, just drink."

Nothing means nothing, and it's not good to get drunk. I know that Su Jiuyue will mind it to some extent, but it's just not easy to embarrass him in front of everyone. This woman is like this, very sensible.

In the eyes of others, these may not matter. Father Gu even joked and said with a smile: "Su... uh, Jiu Yue, it's still you who can control him. Before, he wouldn't have been able to control him even in front of the two of us." Being so scrupulous is rebellious."

Gu Qiu's face turned red and he couldn't help but glance over: "Dad, didn't you find someone who can cure you?"

Depend on!

As soon as he said these words, Gu's father twitched the corner of his mouth, and glanced at Gu's mother sitting next to him unconsciously, but he never thought that he would meet his eyes, so he quickly looked away, vaguely said:

"Do I need treatment? Unlike you, I am always honest."

Anyone who works in a public service unit who is dishonest may get into trouble. Even if you are restless inside, you must look serious on the outside. This is a professional habit.

"Yes, I'm not honest."

Therefore, Gu Qiu feels that he is the one who pursues freedom more. He does not want to live his duty in this world. He realizes that life only lasts a few decades, and it is only once.

After eating a few dishes and changing three or four topics, two older men and one younger man began to drink freely at the dinner table, causing the two women next to them to frown and move aside.

Gu's mother warned in a threatening tone: "Lao Gu, although I can help you drive tonight, don't get drunk, otherwise you will fall asleep outside, and you, Aqiu——"

"Can Jiu Yue stand your smell of alcohol? I haven't held a wedding with you yet, but you show this side of me so unscrupulously in front of the girl. What do you think?"

The mother's words immediately made Gu Qiu feel embarrassed to hold the wine glass in his hand. She put it back on the table with a dry laugh, picked up a shrimp, peeled off the shell, and put it into Su Jiuyue's bowl.

Then he said in a flattering tone: "Jiu'er, you won't talk about me, right?"

The other party shook his head: "Yes."

……

I don’t know when the TV was turned on. It seemed that Su Jiuyue had turned it on. The program of the Mid-Autumn Festival Party was playing. The host on the TV was chattering endlessly, and the audience outside the TV was not

Look, there can also be a lively atmosphere.

The originally full table of dishes was wiped out little by little while chatting and drinking. In the end, only some greasy dishes were left, and everyone was full.

In fact, it was two men who drank and ate together, and they ate a lot.

The time came late at night unknowingly, and Gu's father and mother had no intention of staying here to disturb the young couple, so they helped pack up and prepared to go home.

"Aqiu, you have to go to work now, so you need to pay more attention to your physical condition."

Father Gu leaned on the wooden chair, picked his teeth with a toothpick, and looked at his son up and down:

"You are too thin...and there is a saying now, oh yes, crispy college students, remember to exercise more, so that you won't be prone to any serious or minor illnesses."

Nowadays, the working environment has changed. After looking at computers and mobile phones all day in the office, I have some problems with my waist, neck and shoulders. A young man in his twenties, when he moves around, feels like an old man. Click.

Gu Qiu looked over with a blushing face and narrowed his eyes. He suddenly became happy and said, "Dad, don't worry about this. Your son, I have always been a self-disciplined person. I will definitely have my own arrangements for this little thing."

Arrange it yourself?

Gu's mother and Gu's father looked over as if they had seen a ghost, wondering when their otaku son had such an ideological consciousness.

Then I saw Gu Qiu pulling up his sleeves intentionally or unintentionally and showing off his biceps. This is a real guy who has been trained.

Father Gu was surprised at this time: "You're still exercising?"

He nodded and admitted: "I usually just practice if I have nothing to do."

The old father frowned and shook his head: "It's not like you."

Gu Qiu could only smile and say nothing.

He can't say that this body of tendons was all developed by him to prevent harassment from a certain female gangster, right?
