Chapter 381 Reunion Day
"It, how much does it need to eat to be full?"
A little soldier asked curiously.
Gu Siwei looked at him and thought that this soldier must be around seventeen or eighteen years old. He looked quite interesting and reminded him of a comedian he would often see on TV in the future.
"If it is full, it can eat almost 25% of its body weight, which is about 90 kilograms," Gu Siwei said.
"How do you feed me so much meat?"
The little soldier looked at Gu Siwei, even more curious.
"Should I feed it? If I feed it enough every time, then I won't even be able to feed it myself, so of course I will let it out," Gu Siwei said with a smile.
The little warrior grinned after hearing this.
Gu Siwei didn't want to continue talking to the soldiers, so he turned to the officer and asked: "Are everything ready?"
"Everything is ready. You can set off now. You don't have to sleep for a while. You have only slept for less than twenty minutes." The officer raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist.
Gu Siwei said: "No need, it's better to send the things up and make it more practical."
Good guy, with this small coin, Gu Siwei even admired himself.
When the officers and soldiers heard this, they all looked deeply moved and thought that this young man named Gu Siwei was really nice. As expected, the military and civilians here are all in love with each other.
Gu Siwei couldn't see clearly the expressions on everyone's faces. It might be more useful if he could.
Although it was a lie to pretend to be tired or not sleep, Gu Siwei was a serious person, so he didn't feel any shame.
Soon the second batch of supplies arrived on his and Da Mao's backs. It was still dark and the sky was still covered with heavy snow. Gu Siwei, one person and one bear, disappeared into the darkness.
After arriving at Li Zhengda's side, he unloaded the supplies. Gu Siwei didn't even take a break and continued his fifth trip to transport supplies.
Waiting for the third shipment of supplies to be completed, it was already the afternoon of New Year's Eve.
At this time, Gu Siwei didn't care where these cutest people went to celebrate the New Year. He had to go back to his mother-in-law's house to celebrate the New Year with his family, so he rushed to the factory non-stop.
While waiting for Gu Siwei to return to the factory dormitory, as soon as he entered the gate, he heard the sound of firecrackers all around.
Some people have started to have New Year’s Eve dinner!
Gu Siwei thought and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
When he reached the door, Gu Siwei reached out and pushed it gently, and found that the door was open.
"Brother-in-law is back!"
Hu Yanping was the first to notice Gu Siwei standing at the door, and immediately roared loudly.
"Seeing me so happy? You haven't been like this for a while," Gu Siwei joked at his brother-in-law.
Hu Yanping said: "I'm waiting for you to eat. Hurry up, hurry up. I'm almost starving to death."
"Is everything done?"
Gu Siwei entered the house, closed the door, started to take off his coat, and hung it on the clothes rack at the door. He still had to wear cotton clothes and other things, because there was no fireplace in the house like him, so the temperature was still quite high.
It's low, I can't say low, but it's definitely not allowed to wear just a sweater.
"It's all done."
Lu Yihui heard the noise and came out with the dishes.
"How is it? Did everything go well?"
Seeing her son-in-law back, Lu Yihui, who had been a little worried, felt relieved.
Gu Siwei said: "It went pretty well. I thought they had nothing to eat. Who knew they were lucky enough to hunt a group of wild boars. They couldn't finish the meat, but there was no seasoning to cook it... Hey, dad, where is dad?"
As Gu Siwei said this, he walked to the kitchen, washed his hands and served the dishes. When he returned to the living room, he found that Hu Shunkai was not there, so he walked towards the master bedroom, opened the door and wanted to shout that Dad had eaten, but found that
There was no one in the room.
"Your dad has gone to the factory, we don't have to wait for him," Lu Yihui said.
After hearing this, Gu Siwei asked: "What's the matter? Today is New Year's Eve."
Hu Yanqiu came out with a bottle of wine at this time, put it on the table and began to twist the bottle cap. While twisting it, he said: "They have a new task, it's quite urgent, it seems to be export related."
"Don't ask about things that are confidential," Lu Yihui said.
After hearing this, Gu Siwei stopped asking. Many people were like this at this time.
"Then don't open the wine. Dad is not here and you can't drink." Gu Siwei looked at Hu Yanqiu and said.
Hu Yanqiu said: "The wine still needs to be opened. I can't drink it. You and mom can drink a little to have some fun during the New Year."
"The dishes we cooked today are quite rich." Gu Siwei took the wine bottle, poured the wine into the jug first, then pointed the spout at himself, first filled the cup in front of his mother-in-law, and then filled the cup in front of himself.
The cup is full.
"It's all made by Yan Qiu. You know my cooking skills," Lu Yihui said with a smile.
At this time, Hu Yanqiu said to Gu Siwei: "Don't talk too much, I know what you are going to say, but I asked the doctor and he said that it is okay to do some housework."
These words directly blocked Gu Siwei's words.
"Then listen to the doctor," Gu Siwei said with a smile.
"Yanping, Yanping, go and put off the whip, and come back for dinner after you put it off." Lu Yihui was about to say that everyone should start, but she remembered that the firecrackers from home had not been set off for the banquet, so she asked her youngest son to set off the firecrackers.
Hu Yanqiu arrived at Mali. After hearing this, he rushed out of the door. After a while, the sound of crackling firecrackers sounded outside.
In the absence of Hu Shunkai, Lu Yihui is the head of the family, so she naturally has to say the toast for the New Year's Eve dinner.
The old lady also knew it, so she picked up the wine cup and said, "Those who have wine will raise their glasses, and those who have no wine will raise their bottles! The old year is about to pass, and the new year is about to come. I am here.
I wish everyone in our family, including the two who are not here, good luck in their work.
This year, our family has overcome a big hurdle, and the couple Yanqiu and Siwei are also happy..."
As she spoke, Lu Yihui became a little excited. She was so emotional. She originally thought that her daughter would be miserable in her life, but who would have thought that God would be so kind to her daughter.
"Mom, Mom, please don't make us cry during the Chinese New Year, okay? Let's all be happy," Hu Yanqiu immediately reminded his mother.
"Yes, yes! Don't mention this anymore, just be happy and wish our family better and better days." Lu Yihui wiped away her tears and burst into tears.
When everyone's cups were touched, a series of crisp sounds were made, indicating the official start of this year's New Year's Eve dinner.
Although there are two missing family members, life this year is obviously better than last year. It can be seen from the dishes on the table. There is not only fish and meat, but also a table full of hard dishes.
Everyone was just eating here when suddenly the door was pushed open and the cold wind blew in, making everyone shiver.
"Why are you back? Didn't you say you wouldn't come back?"
It was Hu Shunkai who opened the door and walked in.
Hu Shunkai said: "I haven't come back. I'll come back here to see if Siwei comes back. I'll eat some at home. After all, it's New Year's Eve dinner. If I don't come back, I'll go back to the cafeteria to eat."
At this time, Sicui had already taken the chopsticks and handed them to Hu Shunkai with a wink.
After Hu Shun thanked him, he took his chopsticks and sat down.
"Just started?"
Lu Yihui said: "I just finished my toast and everyone picked up their chopsticks and you came back. Your legs are quite long. By the way, do you want to say something more?"
Hu Shunkai waved his hand: "I won't say anything anymore. There is nothing to say. Everyone just eats and drinks."
As he said that, he saw his son-in-law pouring a glass of wine for himself, raised his head, and sucked it into his mouth with a slurp.
“It’s better to have wine at home.”
Hu Shunkai praised.
Lu Yihui said with a smile: "You don't want to look at how much a bottle costs. Siwei, don't buy such expensive wine next time, just ordinary wine will do."
The wine on the table is not Maotai. Maotai at this moment does not have the same status as it will in a few decades. Good wine is good wine, but at this time it has not become synonymous with good wine.
The wine on the table tonight is famous wine from this province. People in this province are not used to drinking Maotai-flavor wine, so they all drink strong-flavor wine. At this time, its price is comparable to Maotai.
So Lu Yihui is actually not wrong when he says good wine.
"It's a rare drink," Gu Siwei said cheerfully.
Another member of the family has returned, and now the only one missing is Hu Yanming, who is at the border. Everyone talks and the topic naturally leads to him.
"I don't know how Yanming is doing over there," Lu Yihui said.
Hu Shunkai said: "Don't worry, it's not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den over there. It's just a bit of hardship. Didn't we endure hardship when we were young? There's nothing wrong with young people exercising."
Lu Yihui stopped talking after hearing this.
However, Gu Siwei could still see that the mother-in-law was still worried about her brother-in-law.
Not to mention the mother-in-law, the father-in-law said that, but he was worried about her to death. This is the difference between parents. The mother can express it, but the father often keeps this emotion deep in his heart at this time.
At this time, Gu Siwei suddenly thought of his parents in another life. He didn't know how heart-wrenching and uncomfortable it would be for him to think of his parents on this day of family reunion.
Gu Siwei didn't even know that at that time, his parents received the news that he was dead or missing.
Thinking of this, Gu Siwei's heart suddenly ached.
Hu Yanqiu discovered something strange about her husband.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Siwei waved his hand and forced a smile from his face: "It's okay, it's okay!"
Hu Yanqiu knew her husband very well, so there was nothing wrong with this. However, she also understood that it was not appropriate to ask this question at this time, so she continued to eat, thinking to ask quietly after finishing the meal.
Gu Siwei got rid of the emotion just now, and soon started laughing and joking. We are all together as a family, and there is nothing to worry about when it comes to food and drink. There is no mortgage or car loan. At this time, as long as you are a worker.
Let's put it this way, as long as I don't seek death, I can't think about whether I will have food to eat tomorrow or whether I will flatter my boss, because everyone thinks that I am a worker and the country will take care of me from now until my death.
