Chapter 405 Fruit
Gu Siwei returned to the workroom carrying the bedside.
The studio is a big house, built out of several old men's dormitories. There are three rooms in total, all of which are large spaces. One is You Xugang's studio, one is Lu Yan's painting studio, and the other is a tool room. .
Now Gu Siwei returned to You Xugang's workshop carrying the bedside.
"What's wrong?" You Xugang asked curiously when he saw Gu Siwei carrying something back.
Gu Siwei sighed: "My wife won't let me. She says she's used to sleeping on the original bed and won't let her change."
"If you don't want to change it, don't let it change. The bed you are sleeping on now is very good. The wood style is full of freedom and ease. Although this thing is complicated and the materials are expensive, it has lost its naturalness. Yanqiu's The aesthetics have not gone astray, but your aesthetics have lost some value," You Xugang said.
Gu Siwei said: "I'm just a layman, forget it, if that's the case then I'll put it away."
After thinking for a while, Gu Siwei thought that this set of furniture should not be placed here, but should be placed in Hong Kong City. Thinking of Hong Kong City, Gu Siwei began to think about it. Now he has a lot of houses. , but he feels a little dissatisfied with the current house.
Why are you dissatisfied? They all bought old houses from other people. Although the buildings were quite good, Gu Siwei always felt that they did not express his own style preferences.
Rich people, nothing matters at the end of the day. When I had no money before, I didn't see Ku Siwei talking about his style or preferences. Now that I have a lot of money in my pocket, all kinds of ideas pop up.
While working, I was thinking about whether to get another piece of land and build a small building that I was satisfied with. I was thinking about it until it was time for lunch.
You Xugang was focused on his work, while Gu Siwei lost track of time while thinking about things, so neither of them noticed that it was time to eat.
"Brother, Grandpa You, you two have eaten, and you can do this after eating."
Sicui stood at the door and saw the two of them still working. She smiled and shouted to them.
A few years have passed, and Sicui already looks like a big girl, but she is not very tall. Now she is only a little over 1.6 meters tall. Of course, among women today, Sicui is no longer tall. Considered short.
But Gu Siwei was dissatisfied. He felt that his girl should grow to about 1.75 meters.
Sicui is still not fat, and her height of 1.6 meters is only less than 90 pounds, which gives Hu Yanqiu, the sister-in-law, a headache.
It wasn't really that Gu Siwei and his wife treated her harshly, but that Sicui just didn't grow fat, and Tao Yisheng gave her several prescriptions, but they had no effect.
As for Western medicine, the doctors at the factory have long been defined as quacks by Gu Siwei, so naturally there is nothing they can do about it.
As for appearance, Sicui can only be said to be above average, relatively good-looking, and has a bit of the heroic spirit of Hu Yanqiu in character, and he is strict in everything he does.
Sicui now wears a Hulan head, capable and refreshing, wearing a crimson jacket, black trousers, and a pair of lace-up sneakers.
Youxugang put down what he was holding, smiled at Sicui and asked, "Have you all eaten?"
"What time is it? Look, it's twelve o'clock. Why don't you have dinner?"
Sicui clicked on the watch on her wrist and smiled at Youxugang.
Why does Sicui have a watch? Isn’t that nonsense? What’s so strange about Gu Siwei having a watch on Sicui’s wrist? It’s not just Sicui, everyone in the old Gu family now has a watch, and they don’t know how to look at the sun every day. Why would a family that can live a simple life need so many watches?
You Xu just looked at the watch on his hand and realized that it was really time to eat.
So the two of them put down what they were doing and followed Sicui to the small canteen to eat.
Now there is a special small dining room in Gu Siwei's house. The room used is a dormitory separated by the old men. This thing is only used when the weather is very cold. When the weather gets warmer, everyone eats with bowls in hand. The dining room If there is no dining room, it is not that important.
Today is still a big pot dish, but with a different twist. Today is stewed fish. In addition to the fish, there are about a dozen thick slices of pork belly in the pot. In addition, there are three items: tofu, vermicelli and Chinese cabbage. set.
Heavy oil red sauce is a home-cooked dish. A few decades later, some people may still complain about this kind of food, but now that you can eat like this and have enough money, you won't have the shame to complain about the food.
Gu Siwei, like everyone else, had a bowl of rice in his hands and a small bowl of vegetables in front of him, sitting on a long stool and eating slowly.
It was very quiet during the meal. Even the six troublemakers from Gu Siwei's family were eating their meals honestly at this moment, not daring to cause any trouble.
Eat without talking and sleep without talking. This is Hu Yanqiu's requirement for children, and it also applies to adults.
Gu Siwei was full with a bowl of rice, washed his dishes, put them back in the kitchen, poured himself a pot of tea, sat under the camphor tree at the door, and slowly sipped the tea.
As the number of people gradually increased after dinner, a group of old men sat beside Gu Siwei. Each of them had a small bamboo chair and each held a large teapot. They were either playing chess or chatting.
Gu Siwei did not join the team playing chess or bragging. He sipped tea and hummed to himself, and then admired the flowering fruit trees surrounding his field.
It was early spring at this time, and most of the flowers, such as plum blossoms and pear blossoms, were in bloom. However, in the fruit forest of Gu Siwei's house, the most luxuriant and prosperous flowers were not these flowers, but cherry blossoms.
The cherry flowers grown by Gu Siwei's family are not the usual white or pink, but a more gorgeous orange-yellow color, which is very bright and eye-catching.
The flowers are very big, twice as big as ordinary cherry flowers, so from a distance, in that cherry forest, there are almost no green leaves on the trees. They are all clusters of orange-yellow flowers, crowding the entire branch. He couldn't see his head or even the trunk of the tree clearly. All he could see was a bright orange-yellow color.
Zhou Guangxian was watching everyone playing cards. He turned around and saw Gu Siwei looking at the cherry blossoms there in a daze, and said: "Don't look, there must be a lot of cherries today. Look at these flowers."
The mold peaches have already borne fruit. In fact, they have borne fruit two or three years ago. However, there are not many fruits. The tree is small. But as time goes by, the fruit trees are getting bigger and taller. Now
It has grown to more than three meters high, and naturally more flowers bloom. With more flowers, more fruits will naturally be produced.
That's why Zhou Guangxian said that there will definitely be more cherries this year.
Before Gu Siwei could say anything, Lu Yan, who was playing Paike, threw out the cards in his hand first, and then said: "There are too many cherries. I think there should be more kiwis. There are only a few of them now."
, the fruit produced is not enough for the monkeys to eat, I didn’t even enjoy eating it last year.”
How could there be so little fruit in Gu Siwei's house, but when it comes to top products, there are definitely only two: one is cherries, and the other is kiwi.
There is no way, this is the resentment that Gu Siwei brought back from the previous era.
Others are like apples, peaches, etc., which are larger in size and more sweet, and not too outlandish.
But there is absolutely nothing wrong with cherries and kiwis. This is not just a matter of size, but not only are they big, they also taste better, not to mention their appearance.
The normal size of the cherries produced by the cherry trees in Gu Siwei's family is slightly smaller than a table tennis ball, and almost as big as an ordinary apricot.
The whole body is purple-black, and there is a light layer of natural wax on the peel. You can easily rub it with your fingers to remove the wax. After removing it, just rub it with your hands, and the surface of the fruit will be extremely smooth, so smooth.
It can reflect light and vaguely illuminate people's shadows.
The taste of the pulp is a different kind of sweetness, without any sourness at all. The sweetness has a faint floral aroma. Gu Siwei doesn't know how to describe this aroma. It is quiet and peaceful.
The kiwi fruit is naturally large in size, with smooth skin and thin peel. When the peel is ripe, the flesh inside is golden yellow. Close to the core, the flesh has rose-red stripes radiating from the inside out, half of which is absorbed into the pulp.
It disappeared without a trace, but there was no trace of rose-red inside, but emerald green, like an embedded emerald.
The average fruit of Gu Siwei's kiwi fruit weighs about 170 grams, and the large fruit weighs about 200 grams.
The shape is slightly larger at both ends and slightly tapered in the middle, like the old pillows used in the countryside here, so it is called pillow peach.
Regarding the two kinds of fruits, each has its own fans. Of course, the majority are people like Gu Siwei, who like almost all fruits.
"Then plant two more this year," Gu Siwei said casually.
"Where to plant? And cut down the trees?" Youxugang finished speaking and played a pair of kings in his hand.
As soon as he hit, he was jumped by Yu Yingzhi from the opposite side with a pair of 2s.
"My family and I, what are you going to do to kill me? Are you going to fight me?" You Xugang asked Yu Yingzhi.
"If he doesn't kill, I will kill him. You think a pair of kings is a big deal. Look at the cards that came down. The big one hasn't come down yet," Lu Yan said to You Xugang.
Gu Siwei felt that these guys were really noisy. They were blushing and having thick necks while playing poker. They were not young yet, yet they were still so aggressive.
So I moved the chair a little outside, and continued to lie down, sipping my tea and admiring my flowers.
After drinking a pot of tea, an hour and a half had passed. Gu Siwei lazily stood up from his chair, preparing to go to the workroom to mess with his furniture.
I was carrying a chair and preparing to leave when I heard Yang Chuanwu's voice.
Gu Siwei was wondering: Are Caohua and Diangang so free today? They sent Song Rui here in the morning, and now they have sent Yang Chuanwu away. Are these two guys now renting out in the water?
"Fourth dimension, fourth dimension!"
Yang Chuanwu waved and greeted Gu Siwei.
Gu Siwei asked loudly: "What brought you here? Have you eaten?"
"Eat, how could you not have eaten at this time? I came here to discuss something with you." Yang Chuanwu came over, pulled up a chair, sat down, and motioned for Gu Siwei to sit over as well.
