Let’s just say, does this scene seem familiar? !
Well, qualified mistresses in the old society all looked like this.

Not to mention that there is nothing between him and Xi Moxuan's childhood sweetheart, even if there is something, looking at the situation, Xi Moxuan's girlfriend is no match for her.

But complaints in one's heart are just private matters, and no one would speak out about this taboo. After all, it's all made up by everyone's imagination, especially the one who was crying was made to cry by some of them.
-
When we returned to the small courtyard, the old man had already prepared a table full of food on time.

The guards in the courtyard had already left, and the old man took this opportunity to contact his people. Some of the food was prepared by himself, and some was prepared and sent by the chef he asked.

The whole family had another meal together in a lively atmosphere.

New year and a new look.

Last year's bad and changeable weather seems to have become much milder with the coming of the New Year. The snow is still falling, but it is a light sleet.

On the first day of the new year, I followed Pei Yanning around to pay New Year's greetings, then waited for others to come to my house and entertained them. It was a busy and lively time.

On the second and third days of the Chinese New Year, Pei Yanning's friends came to his house again to get together. It was not until the fourth day that those who had jobs had already gone back to work, and Pei Yanning's house became a little quieter. But it was only a little quieter, as there were still people who came to visit during the New Year.

It's just that no one comes to the door in groups.

On the morning of the fourth day of the New Year, Gu Si wrapped his wife tightly.

She was wearing a dark green knee-length cotton coat, a smoky gray scarf, and a smoky gray woolen hat with two small balls hanging on it that swayed as she walked, and a pair of thick deerskin boots on her feet.

He himself was wearing a half-court dark green cotton coat cut from the same piece of cloth. Under the teasing gazes of Pei Yanning and the others and the eager eyes of the three little ones, he took his people out without mercy.

Lingxi didn't realize what was happening until she was taken to the car door.

"Brother, are you going to take me out to play? Just take me!"

She had already gotten into the car. She and Gu Si were the only ones at home who had changed their clothes. Everyone else was wearing casual clothes and had not come out.

It's obvious that they are the only ones going out!
Gu Si put the person in the passenger seat and opened the other door. He smiled and said, "There are too many things in the house. Brother Si can't spend some time with you."

He didn't mean the word "annoying" in a derogatory way at all, it was just pure resentment.

Lingxi smiled even more happily, and whispered, "I also want to go play alone with Fourth Brother."

Gu Si: “…”

He pretended to believe it!
In fact, she is happy whoever takes her out.

The two of them were sticking together in the car, while Minghui, who had watched them get in the car, stood in the living room with the three little ones, looking towards the door with eager eyes, staring at the jeep at the door.

Wow, not gone yet.

Minghui looked at his obedient younger brothers and sisters, what should he do?
It’s not easy to take my aunt and uncle out to play with them!
But his younger brothers and sisters were quite pitiful. Minghui felt reluctant to let them go. He looked at the car parked at the door, his eyes rolling around. In the end, his feeling for his younger brothers and sisters prevailed.

He coughed, pretending to be calm, and said, "Grandpa, my aunt's car is parked at the door, and there's nothing going on. I'll take Hanhan and A Zhao to have a look!"

You never know, you might see it on the car!
He winked at the three little ones, held one in each hand and was about to leave as he couldn't hold on to the other one.

however--

Before the three little ones could even take a single step, the jeep parked at the door started up, and then...

He jumped out with a swipe.

Minghui: “…”

Three little ones: "..."

!!!

The four children, one big and three small, looked at each other in confusion.

Pei Yanning and the others were watching the scene, laughing uncontrollably.

He worked tirelessly to hug people and comfort them one by one.

Little Minghui sighed and followed suit.

“It’s okay.

When you grow up, you will leave them at home and go out to play by yourselves."

The three little ones seemed to have learned something new: "..."

what?
Is this possible?

They seem to be really thinking seriously about the feasibility of this.

Uncle Pei couldn't hold back his spitting out a mouthful of water. Pei Yanning was already laughing, and this time he couldn't stop. Gu Si Lingxi didn't know what happened next at home. Before leaving, Gu Si had a good-natured discussion with the three children. As for whether they agreed or not...

Gu Si just assumed that they agreed.

Besides, Pei Yanning, Uncle Pei and Old Man Pei are both more reliable in taking care of children than Lingxi and the others. As parents, Gu Si and Lingxi really don't have to worry at all.

Lingxi was a little restless while riding in the car. This was not the time when Gu Si was not around. If Gu Si was not around, she would either be in a daze or secretly send messages to Gu Si using the communicator. Now that Gu Si was next to her, she could not sit still for even a moment.

Seeing that Gu Si was driving seriously, she moved her white and tender paws back and forth until they were next to him.

After a short pause, seeing that he didn't seem to notice, I gently rubbed my fingers on his clothes, and the result was...

He still didn't seem to notice.

Lingxi blinked her eyes, and her little hand went in, touching the soft flesh on his waist...

Gu Si: “…”

!!!

Gu Si originally wanted to see what his wife was going to do, and pretended to be calm, but he didn't expect...

He was so happy in his heart, but he looked a little embarrassed and tried to tease her on purpose.

"Wife, we're still in the car. This isn't good!"

Lingxi: “…”

She just had an itchy hand.

Lingxi regained her senses instantly and was about to retract her tender white hand, but was grabbed by Gu Si, who held it in his palm, "Why do you want to retract it? This is just right, and Fourth Brother can even warm your hands."

He diverted Lingxi's attention and talked about what happened last night.

“Remember the guy who played the erhu a few days ago?”

Huh?
Lingxi instantly forgot about the use of hands.

Gu Si's expression was very subtle.

"Didn't she take out several thousand kilograms of food and send her father in last time?"

Lingxi nodded.

Yes, it’s not out yet.

"There's something wrong with the source of her food, it's not from the Lin family's treasury, it's her own.

The specific situation is still unknown, but Grandpa found out that she has some connection with the black market, and she has a fixed subordinate who helps her exchange food for antiques.

"Our old man's people got a few boxes of old cups, bottles, bowls, plates, and jars and exchanged them for tens of thousands of kilograms of rice and flour. The old man left some for us and shipped the rest out in batches."

The things that the old man took out are really old things.

It's just that the quality and workmanship are not that good, so the old man doesn't think highly of it. How should I put it? The values ​​of things used by nobles and those used by ordinary people, even if they are from the same era, are far different.

But, they are not very picky over there. The older the item, the more you can exchange it for.

Before Gu Si finished speaking, he said, "The old man has already scheduled the next transaction. He also plans to make the beads polished by our father and second uncle look old to see if he can make another big profit."

Lingxi: “…”

!!!

Stunned, yet as if expected.

This year is only 1960, and the disaster year of 1962 has just passed!

There is a shortage of food everywhere, but the old man never thinks too much is too much.

and--

"The old man's people also found that the people above have noticed her."

Sijiu City is the capital. If they are really determined to investigate, nothing can be hidden.

At least Lin Feiyin’s deal couldn’t be kept secret.

However, the higher-ups seemed to want to test the waters, so they didn't just hold him down. (End of this chapter)
