The Qing River Brigade and the Southern Lake Brigade were the few places in the vicinity that had better living conditions and had more food.
In the city, many people with a salary of 40 to 50 yuan were able to feed their families, much less him and Mo Beihan who had a salary of more than 100 yuan.
Therefore, Mo Beihan had more than enough to support his two nephews and take care of his mother. In addition, he earned more from hunting.
As for Gu Jinfeng, he did not have a younger brother at home. His parents and another older brother all had jobs, so the family's expenses were minimal. Naturally, there was more left.
After deducting his own expenses, his sister's pocket money, and some subsidies for his younger cousins, as well as filial piety towards his grandparents, he still had a lot of money saved up.
With his supply of food, he could go to the black market and earn several times more. In addition, he also knew how to hunt, so the speed of earning money was naturally fast.
Therefore, his sister did not need to take risks at all.
To Gu Jinfeng, he only had one little sister. She had five grown up and working older brothers. It was enough to support her.
She only needed to be like a little princess and grow up without worries.
If the other brothers could not do it, Gu Jinfeng alone could take care of them all.
Gu Jinfeng pointed at the book in front of Gu Qingyao. "Study hard. If you do well in university, The Fourth Brother will send you there and give you pocket money every day."
"It's fine if you don't want to study, but don't think about those messy things. Just stay at home and eat, drink, and play."
Gu Qingyao: "…"
She said weakly, "Brother, aren't you afraid that you'll raise me into a useless person?"
Gu Jinfeng glared and said righteously, "My sister will become useless? What a joke! "
Gu Qingyao: "…"
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door. The door to the courtyard was knocked a few times. The door was not closed and opened with a push.
"Is anyone there? Aunt Gu, are you there? "
Gu Qingyao and Gu Jinfeng heard the noise and came out to take a look. They saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy standing at the door of the courtyard. He was wearing thin clothes and was still wearing a straw raincoat. His body was covered in snow.
Gu Fangting ran out and saw him. "Brother Jiang Xun, why are you here?"
This young man was the young man, Jiang Xun, who had come to the Gu family to call for help on the day Gu Yunshuang got into trouble.
Seeing Gu Fangting in her new clothes, Jiang Xun was stunned for a moment before he said, "I'm here to look for you and Aunt Gu. I … I have something to tell you."
Gu Fangting brought him to Gu Yunshuang's room. Gu Qingyao and Gu Jinfeng also came over.
Gu Yunshuang was shocked to see Jiang Xun's pale face and covered in snow.
"Jiang Xun? Why are you here? It's snowing so heavily. Hurry! Come and warm yourself. "
Jiang Xun took off his straw raincoat and placed it at the door. He patted the snow off his body before walking to the stove.
Gu Fangting had already poured a cup of hot tea and placed it in his hands to warm him up.
It was too cold outside and Jiang Xun did not have any extra clothes to wear. He was freezing badly.
He took a sip of the hot tea before he said, "Aunt Gu, I have something to tell you. Something happened at the Li family recently. Old Madam Li has been very ill recently and hasn't recovered. My eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter-in-law are both bedridden. My third daughter-in-law burned down the kitchen when she was cooking yesterday. Only half of the kitchen is left now.
"My eldest son, Li Dajiang, fell when he was carrying water to put out the fire last night. Although it's not serious, he sprained his ankle and waist. He can't do any heavy work now and still needs someone to wait on him.
"I heard that their family has been quarreling for the past few days. They said that no one is working at home and they are quarreling. Now that the kitchen is burned down, it's difficult to even eat.
