“After ten days, you’ll come to me if Second Brother hasn’t paid up. Don’t tell Second Brother about this. As for the small business you’re going to do with Gu Nian, you two make it first, and your father and I will have a taste of it,” Grandma Gu said after a moment of silence.

“Okay, Mother.” Cai Xiaolian nodded.

“Go back! It’s getting dark, and Second Brother isn’t home. Remember to lock the door before the three of you go to bed at night,” Grandma Gu instructed.

“Okay, Mom. I’ll take the kids back,” Cai Xiaolian said.

Grandma Gu didn’t go out with Cai Xiaolian. Soon, Grandpa Gu came in.

“If Second Brother solves his gambling debt by himself this time, then he needs to study. Let’s help him!” Grandma Gu sighed.

The way she talked to Grandpa Gu was different from the way she talked to others outside. It was much gentler.

“Lan Lan, three hundred taels is not a small amount.” Grandfather Gu walked over and sat down next to Grandma Gu. He sighed, “Forget it. We can’t always pamper him like this. If he can settle this gambling debt in ten days, no matter what method he uses, it’s his ability.” 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

“Okay.” Grandma Gu leaned on Grandfather Gu’s shoulder and replied, “Second’s wife said that she wants to discuss some small business with Gu Nian. I don’t know if the two of them can do it. I’m not worried about them. I just pity Xin Xin.”

“Nian Nian’s cooking is not bad. She was the one who cooked the meal just now. She had also told me about it, and I was quite interested. If it worked out, they would have an extra income in the future. Second, seeing that his wife and daughter were so devoted to him, he might even turn back.” Grandpa Gu was not as pessimistic about their small business as Grandma Gu. He seemed to be quite confident in Gu Nianzhi.

“I hope so!”

…

When they got home, the mother and daughter continued to pick the chilies. They planned to finish picking the chilies before it was completely dark.

Gu Nian had wanted to plant the seeds in the morning to see if the effects would be realized the next day.

In the end, the mother and daughter did not finish picking the chilies. They could only wait until tomorrow.

They only finished picking all the chilies the next morning.

When Gu Xin was feeding the chickens, she found that there were dozens of eggs in the nest. She went to pick them up, but Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian were no longer so surprised.

“There are so many eggs. Let’s steam a cake tonight!” Gu Nian suggested.

“Sister, is the cake made from eggs?” Gu Xin asked curiously.

Gu Nian nodded at Gu Xin’s little head and asked with a smile, “Yes! Our Little Xin Xin is so smart. She even knows that! Little Xin Xin, can you go to Grandma’s house and borrow a guillotine? I can help.”

“Sure! I’ll bring some radish leaves to Grandpa and Grandma’s house.” Gu Xin turned around and went to look for a basket.

“What do you need a guillotine for?” Cai Xiaolian asked after Gu Xin left.

“Mom, have you ever eaten dregs of sea pepper?” Gu Nian asked mysteriously instead of answering.

“I have. There was a project in the southwest, and the person-in-charge there invited me to a local farmer’s restaurant. Dregs of sea pepper and pot of meat. Hiss, I’m craving it now just thinking about it.” Cai Xiaolian smacked her lips, she started salivating when she heard the name. It was obvious how much she loved the taste.

“I know how to make it! I’ll get Xin Xin to borrow a guillotine to chop up these red peppers. Let’s make it this afternoon! I’ve seen that there are quite a lot of clay pots at home, and it’s perfect for use.” Gu Nian was also a little tempted to eat.
