MTL - Rebirth Blessed Girl Takes Space To Flee-Chapter 256 have a drink
After seeing Gu Wan'er, Li Yu went back to the house in a star-studded manner.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Gu Lei changing his homely clothes and washing his face.
"Where did you go, you have been so busy for a while, how can you do this, don't you be exhausted, if you can't finish it, you can do it tomorrow, let's wait."
Gu Lei frowned not very happy.
Li Yu entered the room with a smile, took a sip of the tea he handed over, and said, "I really didn't do much work today, but the old relatives went to a few houses and talked about doing workshops. I had dinner with grandpa and the others, and went for a walk with grandpa. By the way, I went to Wan'er's yard and told my mother."
"I just ran around today, and I really didn't do any work. I looked at the account books, and my sister is too frugal. I spend almost no money on this day."
"Oops! Then I spend money like water, and tomorrow the manager of Yue'er shop will come to tailor the clothes, send some fabrics, let my sister make a few more clothes, and get some jewelry later."
Gu Lei was very happy to see her, she didn't look tired, so he sat down to talk.
"Have you eaten? There is ready-made food in the kitchen."
"Then you can have a drink with me and have two light dishes. Actually, I have eaten it too. I ate it with His Highness in the afternoon. I ate early, and my mouth will feel light and I want to eat something."
"Okay, let the small kitchen order all the food, drink two glasses of wine, get my ten-year-old Lihuabai, fry a quail, and make two side dishes."
"Okay, let's arrange it."
After a while, the kitchen delivered fast dishes, fried quail, a plate of stewed meat made in advance, spicy pig's trotters, steamed Sixi meatballs, which were also prepared in advance, and you can eat it in one pot, plus Two refreshing cold dishes.
"This dish is not bad."
Li Yu glanced at it and nodded, then poured Lihuabai, the wine he brewed himself.
I learned this craft from my mother, and the Li family's good wine is made by the mother.
Poured a glass of wine for Gu Lei, "Are you busy going to the embankment today? When will it be repaired?"
"This year it will be repaired until winter, and it will be finished next year. Three shifts will work in rotation. Change places once a month. If you don't do a good job, you will change people."
"You came up with the idea."
"I learned from you. I was highly praised by His Royal Highness. There are almost no lazy workers. There are a lot of refugees outside. They don't care about their food. No matter how many people want to come."
"It cannot be used by a group of people."
"Yes, change it, change the place once a month, change the group of refugees, pick the hardest ones first, the old and weak women cook on the embankment, I arranged the chores to repair the embankment this time, His Highness is very satisfied. "
Gu Lei gnawed deliciously on the pig's trotters, and he wasn't too hungry but just wanted to have a bite.
After drinking a glass of Lihuabai, he smacked his mouth, "Good wine, Shun Liu, your craft is getting better and better. Is there any good wine left? I'll send some back to His Highness and Princess, and the young masters will also have to pay for it." Sending off, favors and gifts are indispensable."
"Don't worry about it, I'll arrange it, just tell me what I'm missing, and I need to add some extra gifts alone."
Li Yu already had accounts and regulations in mind, these are old jobs, so he doesn't need to worry about these trivial matters.
"Daughter-in-law, I can save a lot of worry when you come in. I can concentrate on court affairs and learn my skills. I was so tired before... I'm afraid that if I fall, the candle will burn at both ends. I can't concentrate. Fortunately, the old generals didn't dislike me. , otherwise it’s just a joke.”
Everyone values him, understands him, and knows that it is not easy for him. In addition, he is down-to-earth, talented, low-key and humble, and has a strong character. The old guys really like him and are willing to tolerate him.
"Just do your homework well, and leave the rest to me. You just assign tasks, and I'll do the rest. We'll work together, and we can't go wrong with the rules."
Li Yu said with a smile.
"Don't drink this, this is spicy, you drink plum bar."
The servants prepared plum wine, which Li Yu likes to drink, and they are familiar with her preferences. The servants are considerate, and they have warmed two kinds of wine in advance and sent them over.
Li Yu drank a glass of plum wine and nodded, "This year's plum wine tastes good."
"You told Grandma Fifth and the others about the workshop."
"I've said it, and I've also told my grandpa. I will support a few brothers and uncles. If my grandpa says I like it, I will take it away. If I don't obey, I will lock it up."
"The old man has high vision, and I am not the top in his heart, let alone men who think carefully, and I am not willing to speak for them."
"It depends on one's own ability to go to the front. It's the same reason as we use slaves. You see, you have to use Lin Shu and Lynch by your side. Back then, several young men grew up together. They stayed, and the others fell one level behind."
Gu Lei nodded, "That's the truth, but some people in the clan don't understand this truth, and they all think that my grandpa is biased and only I don't care about the clan relatives, but it's not true."
He smacked his mouth and shook his head.
"The Gu family seems to have some connections and power, but if I can't support my head, even if my father-in-law is protecting me, people will still ignore me, and they will step on my feet severely if they get this opportunity."
"Grandpa is getting old, he can't ride a horse and can't carry a knife anymore. The Gu family doesn't have any outstanding generals to inherit the mantle, and I'm not fit to be a general at all. Now it's the same situation again. The Gu family is much more difficult than the Li family."
After drinking a glass of wine, Gu Lei felt a little tired. This kind of tiredness could not be expressed, his heart was tired, there were many crises, and the burden was too heavy.
Everyone is waiting and watching, and then consider whether to hit or lift, it's all in the mind of others.
You are a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, whether to suppress you depends on whether you are a sheep or a wolf cub.
Many members of the Gu family didn't see these crises, thinking it would be beneficial and not thinking about them.
Gu Lei can't rely entirely on the father-in-law, Li Boss, Li Jiaerlang stood up in a row, waiting to be supported.
Li Yu didn't speak, she knew that he had endured a lot of grievances silently and held back for a long time.
This person is too courageous. He suddenly lost his father, his grandfather is old, his mother is indifferent and only cares about romance, a house full of old, weak, sick and disabled, widows and children.
Erlang still needs to be cautious, there are many crises outside, and he has not yet fully matured to provoke the heavy responsibility of the more than 400 members of the Gu family.
At the age of eighteen, he already has no right to make mistakes, no right to be willful, and even excessive emotions on his face are wrong, unsteady and immature.
The opportunities given were not eye-catching enough, and Erlang had to pick and choose, but he didn’t know that just such an opportunity came from him rushing up and down to show his face, stooping and begging.
"I often think that my father was suppressed by the first emperor and made so many achievements. I am not as good as my father. I don't blame my grandfather for not looking at me."
Gu Lei drank another glass of wine, feeling a little sentimental.
Belated Pain and Sadness play its due power.
"No, you are no worse than father-in-law. Father-in-law was not as difficult as you when he was eighteen. Don't underestimate yourself. You have done a good job. My grandpa always praised you, saying that the Gu family is the greatest blessing to have you. Maybe the opportunity is here on you."
This is what Grandpa Li said. He is very optimistic about Gu Lei, he can endure what ordinary people can't bear, he can bend the waist that others cannot, and he can shoulder the responsibilities that others cannot resist.
In just a few years, the Gu family has landed smoothly in his hands, and the industry has not lost any opportunities. What he has done has made the aristocratic family nod in approval, which is really good.
Not all credits have to be earth-shattering to be recognized, the more trivial things are, the more a person's ability will be tested.
