I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

Chapter 388 Happy wedding!

 There are so many different kinds of cloth at home. If she learns how to make clothes, she can go back and use local materials to make decent clothes for everyone.

Moreover, if Gu Chao wants to do business in the future, he will be well-dressed, the probability of closing the deal will be high, and people will suffer less.

Wei Lan made up her mind to continue learning no matter how hard it was.

Wei Lan had a determined look on her face, which actually startled Grandma Gu. She clearly knew that she wanted to learn how to make clothes. Those who didn’t know, thought she was going to fight with someone!

There is nothing wrong with a girl knowing a lot of things. Grandma Gu nodded in agreement without thinking too much.

Wei Lan thought that cloth was needed for cutting clothes, but unexpectedly, Grandma Gu just found the paper that You Lan usually used for writing.

Grandma Gu folded the paper and folded it. After hesitating for a while, she made up her mind to cut the scissors.

Wei Lan quickly stopped her, "Grandma, don't you have old newspapers at home? Can you use old newspapers?"

Youlan’s notes are immature, but you can see the progress every day. This is Youlan’s growth experience. Grandma Gu has always kept it carefully for fear of damaging it.

Grandma Gu was reluctant to cut it now. But when she heard that Wei Lan was going to get the newspaper, Grandma Gu suddenly dropped the scissors in her hand and said, "There is something said by a great man in the newspaper. Why cut it? Keep it for reading every day." That’s fine.”

Grandma Gu said, she cut the paper with the scissors in her hand. After a while, she shook off the scraps of paper and unfolded the paper. It looked like a small long-sleeved dress.

Only then did Wei Lan understand the purpose of these papers.

Think about it, cloth is hard to come by in this day and age. If you try to practice with cloth, you will be labeled as a capitalist every minute?

 Bicycles and sewing machines are both big items, and very few people buy them on a daily basis. Only some families with relatively good fortunes will grit their teeth and buy them when they get married.

 But those are the minority after all.

 Remote areas are poor, and county department stores generally don’t carry many goods, so Wei Lan would give such instructions when going out in the morning.

But Gu Chao was lucky. It was nearing the end of the year, and the county department store had just filled the previous vacancy when Gu Chao overtook it.

 The bicycle costs 170 yuan, and the sewing machine costs 220 yuan.

Before going out, Gu Chao was afraid that he would not have enough money, so he brought five hundred yuan with him. He quickly counted the money and industrial coupons and handed them to the salesperson.

The salesperson was very straightforward when he saw Gu Chaoshuang, and he was a very decent young man. When he learned that Gu Chao was going to take the sewing machine back by bicycle, the salesperson helped Gu Chao pack the sewing machine and bundle it behind the bicycle.

The salesperson smiled and joked: "Comrade, are you buying these two items for a wedding at home? I won't say much else, I wish you a happy wedding!"

 Bicycles, sewing machines, radios, and watches have three turns and one beep, which are standard wedding accessories.

 It is said to be standard equipment, but not many people can really afford a complete set.

Gu Chao bought two glasses without blinking an eye, and it was easy to think that he was the groom who was about to get married.

Gu Chao curled his lips and accepted it graciously, "Thank you."

It took more than an hour to ride a bicycle back from the county without stopping. Gu Chao calculated the time and rushed back after shopping. He was eager to see Wei Lan's joy after seeing the sewing machine.

It was already afternoon when Gu Chao hurried home, and Wei Lan was leaning in front of the window, holding an old piece of clothing up and down his hands.

The exclamations of Grandma Gu and You Lan could be faintly heard in the main room. Wei Lan was slightly stunned for a moment, a trace of doubt flashed in his peach blossom eyes, and he put down his things and turned around to leave the room.

 Gu Chaogang put down the bicycle stand, untied the rope that bound the box, and moved the box down. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a slim figure standing out of the straight path in the kitchen.

"Nanny." He turned his face, his sharp eyebrows were raised on his strong and handsome face, his nose was straight, and his eyes were deep and shining. There were four people in the main room, and he seemed to only be able to see her.

As if to please or invite a reward, Gu Chao straightened up and patted the bicycle and the box on the back seat with his big hands, "I bought the sewing machine."

 “Buy it, buy it and then buy it!”

 I'm afraid that Gu Chao will think about the same thing as yesterday and want "rewards" afterwards.

Wei Lan's cheeks suddenly turned red, she quickly calmed down, and turned her eyes to the bicycle, "Bicycle too?"

Gu Chao nodded.

Grandma Gu, who had been watching from the side, suddenly said, "How much does this cost?"

"What kind of hookup did you do when you went back to Haishi? Don't tell me about your pig thing again!" The doubts that had been brushed off before came to mind again. Aunt Gu's face was stern and at a loss, "You are in partnership with others?" How much does it cost to raise pigs? How much did you get back during this period?"

Although Grandma Gu is old, she is not stupid. She can always figure out something after careful calculation.

Grandma Gu buried her head and took a breath. Finally, her gaze passed over Wei Lan in surprise and disbelief. She turned to look at Gu Chao, shaking her hands and asked, "You, you took girl Lan's money?"

“No, grandma, Brother Chao doesn’t have any money from me, so he buys things for me!” Wei Lan explained anxiously.

Grandma Gu is a person who accepts death. She still has old ideas in her bones. She believes that it is normal for a man to support the family. She cannot accept Gu Chao's behavior of taking money from Wei Lan.

Furthermore, Gu Chao insisted on being with Wei Lan in the first place, so he should show his true qualities as a good man and earn money based on his ability.

Grandma Gu sullenly pushed away Wei Lan's hand, "Let him speak!"

Gu Chao originally didn't want to worry Grandma Gu, but when the matter reached this point, he could no longer hide it.

Gu Chao was silent, his voice hoarse and calm: "When I went to the sea market, I brought gold with me."

 “Wha, what?” Speaking of gold, Grandma Gu thought of the time when her house was ransacked a few years ago, and her body suddenly swayed, feeling a little unsteady.

Grandma Gu didn’t know that there were people out there who were specifically catching people who resold gold, but she subconsciously knew that if someone discovered her, her brother Chao would not be able to come back.

 When she learned that Gu Chao had broken through the gate of hell, Grandma Gu was shocked and frightened, but she told Gu Chao to kneel down with a sullen face.

Grandma Gu lost her temper. She first closed the door of the hall, and then drove Wei Lan and You Lan back to the room.

Wei Lan was a little worried and kept pressing against the door panel of the room to listen to what was going on outside.

However, there was no sound of anyone speaking in the main room.

 Some are just "snaps" one after another, the loud sound of the bamboo whip hitting the skin.

The sound was extremely loud, as if someone had taken off their clothes and been slapped directly on the person's skin, making people's scalp numb and hair-raising.

Wei Lan shivered and endured it, but finally couldn't hold it back and opened the door and ran out.

In the hall, Gu Chao was kneeling there, shirtless as expected. He was facing Wei Lan. Wei Lan couldn't see what was behind him, but the staggered red marks on his arms were very dazzling.

A flash of red appeared at the end of Wei Lan's eyes. She ran over and knelt down in front of Gu Chao. She spread her hands and stopped in front of Grandma Gu, "Grandma, Brother Chao already knows that he was wrong. He won't do it again!"
