Gu Xiaobei nodded with a smile, touched Jiu'er's braid and said, "Yes, and it's easier than meeting before, you can find me on the sixth day, and I'll continue to tutor you in English." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Chen Gang was in the period of voice change, his voice was a little rough, but his personality was still as calm as before, and he said to Gu Xiaobei with a smile: "Grandma said, when the transfer of Jiu'er and I is done, she will take us to see our younger brothers and sisters." ā
"Okay, you can play with your younger siblings, they're being naughty right now." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile.
Zhuang Shuxian simply brought the board and meat filling to the living room, planning to make dumplings together, so that they could make dumplings while chatting.
Gu Xiaobei looked around the room and said, "The house you have assigned this time is quite big. ā
"According to your uncle's level, you can divide it into a four-bedroom apartment, but there is no existing house, and we can't live in that big, so we need a three-bedroom one." Zhuang Shuxian said and called Chen Gang to take out the curtain on the dumplings.
Jiu'er jumped up and said with a smile that she wanted to wash her hands and make dumplings.
Gu Xiaobei looked at the three grandmothers and grandchildren who were getting along with each other, and he was also happy in his heart, and once again decided not to say anything about Ma Xuerong in advance, and let Lu Zhan Guo find Shen Heng to investigate.
Gu Xiaobei and Qin Li also washed their hands and came over to help make dumplings, Zhuang Shuxian said with a smile: "Lily picked us up in the morning, not to mention going out to eat in the evening, I don't have to clean up anything, your uncle has asked people to clean up before, so we put things away, and we thought it would be better to make dumplings." ā
"It's still comfortable to eat at home, and the restaurant is not as delicious as the one made at home." Gu Xiaobei said along with Zhuang Shuxian's words.
Jiu'er had been sitting beside Gu Xiaobei, and when she saw that the adults were silent, she said, "Auntie, I also won the first place in our T City in this essay competition." ā
Gu Xiaobei said in surprise: "Really? We Jiu'er are so powerful, what are we writing? ā
Jiu'er smiled and said, "Let me write about my mother and my aunt for the essay topic." ā
Zhuang Shuxian smiled with tears in her eyes and said: "Isn't it, on the day I received the award, I also let the parents go, and when the teacher read our Jiu'er's composition, the people below cried." ā
Gu Xiaobei's heart was already messed up by Ma Xuerong's matter, but now that they say this, they don't feel even more uncomfortable.
Jiu'er said with a smile: "I know that they cry because they think I'm pitiful, but in fact, I'm not pitiful at all, my mother used to be very good to me, and then my aunt treated me better, and now I still have my grandmother and grandfather, I'm very happy." ā
When Chen Gang heard this, he kept his head down and rolled the dumpling skin silently.
"Yes, we Jiu'er are as happy as a little princess." Gu Xiaobei was afraid that the topic would be far away and spoil the atmosphere, so he said with a smile.
Zhuang Shuxian nodded and said, "Yes, our Chen Gang and Jiu'er are very good, and they are the first in the grade every semester."
Chen Gang said embarrassedly: "I want to skip a grade and go directly to the third year of junior high school, so that I can graduate quickly." ā
"Homework in the second year of junior high school is still very important, you still have to work steadily and slowly, if you have good grades in high school, you can take the college entrance examination in the second year of high school, which is also very good." Gu Xiaobei suggested.
Chen Gang nodded: "Grandpa said the same thing." ā
Qin Li asked curiously, "What does Chen Gang want to do in the future?" ā
"I want to be a sharpshooter like my uncle." When Chen Gang spoke, his eyes were full of determination.
Gu Xiaobei looked at Qin Li and said with a smile, "This is what you said, right?" ā
Qin Li was happy: "It's me, I told them the story of the hero, and I told them about my brother-in-law's heroic deeds." ā
When cooking dumplings, Gu Xiaobei helped Zhuang Shuxian cook dumplings in the kitchen, and Qin Li and her two children peeled garlic in the living room.
Zhuang Shuxian stood at the door and looked at Qin Li who was peeling garlic, sighed, walked over and whispered to Gu Xiaobei, who was cooking dumplings: "Go back and persuade Lili, find a good family to marry, you can't let this child suffer for a lifetime, she is still so young, looking at this girl now as if she has no heart and lungs, she is bitter in her heart, when we brought things over today, she asked me if the jujube tree in our original family courtyard could be moved to the provincial capital, which made people feel uncomfortable." ā
Gu Xiaobei paused with his hand on the fence, and he didn't know if it was the steam from the dumpling pot that wet his eyes, and he felt that his eyes were sore and uncomfortable.
After Zhuang Shuxian finished speaking, she quickly wiped away her tears, afraid that she would be seen by Qin Li for a while, and said with a smile: "Don't forget that Xiaopang and Xiaopang are going well now, right?" Can you talk? ā
Gu Xiaobei raised his head and blinked, held back the tears in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Xiaopang will say something simple, don't forget it, he will call a mother." ā
Zhuang Shuxian said with a smile: "Boys, they all speak late, don't you say that nobles are late." ā
After dinner, Gu Xiaobei and Qin Li pushed their bicycles back together.
On winter nights, there were hardly any pedestrians on the road, and both men wore large thick scarves and military cotton gloves on their hands.
Gu Xiaobei pushed the cart and said to Qin Li: "Aunt Jin, they will divide the house this time, and they will not bring a small vegetable garden." As he spoke, he let out a puff of white smoke through his scarf.
Qin Li replied absentmindedly: "Yes, it's inconvenient." ā
Gu Xiaobei stopped, looked at Qin Li and said, "In the spring, you can let Aunt Jin go to the small courtyard to grow vegetables, anyway, it's not too far away." ā
Qin Li suddenly said in surprise: "Yes, how did I forget, I still have a small courtyard, now it's okay." After speaking, his face was full of joy that could not be hidden.
Gu Xiaobei knew that Qin Li had thought of it, and moved the jujube tree planted by T City, she and Jincheng to the small courtyard, and smiled and didn't squeak anymore.
Qin Li's happiness is desperately trying to keep every bit of Jincheng that was with her.
Gu Xiaobei and Qin Li parted at the fork in the road, and then rode slowly home, the road was slippery in winter, and they didn't dare to ride fast.
As soon as he turned into the alley, he saw Lu Zhan Guo walking out in a military coat.
"Hey, you didn't go on a mission, why did you come back?" Gu Xiaobei hurriedly jumped off the bicycle and asked.
Lu Zhan Guo helped push the bicycle and said gently: "I'm back early, rest for a few days, and then go." ā
"I told my mother in the morning, Aunt Kim and they are here today, and I won't come back for dinner in the evening." Gu Xiaobei pulled down the scarf, said with a small face, it was too uncomfortable to talk through the scarf.
"Mom told me, I saw that it was getting dark, so I thought I would come out to pick you up, and it would be right to go to the family courtyard of the provincial party committee." Lu Zhan Guo said in a sullen voice.
Gu Xiaobei rushed over and hugged his arm, and kissed him on the face with his feet.
Lu Zhan Guo's bicycle walked a curve, and said helplessly: "It's so cold, quickly pull up the scarf, your little face is cold." ā
Gu Xiaobei said with a smile: "My hands are also cold, you go back and warm me." ā
"Good!"
"My feet are cold, you can warm me when you go back."
"Good!" (To be continued.) )
