Chapter 144: Gu Hui stayed
Bai Ko muttered a few very light whispers behind Gu Yun, Gu Yun coughed dryly and interjected.
"Auntie, are the third grandfather and uncle usually vegetarian at home?"
"As long as they eat at home, they must be vegetarians, and I don't know what to eat when they eat out, but their colleagues know our family's eating habits, and it's rare to ask them to go out to eat out once a month."
"In other words, basically a year is mainly vegetarian?"
"Yes, even the lunch at the government office at noon is only added to the white rice and eaten by the side dishes brought by me."
Gu Yun sighed heavily, got up and whispered to his mother and grandmother respectively, and told him the original story that Bai Ko had told him before.
Why did the four daughters-in-law find it difficult to get pregnant before the separation, and they gave birth to children one after another after the separation, especially the second brother and sister in the middle of the age have now given birth to two, but this eldest sister-in-law has not moved since giving birth to a daughter, the reason is obviously related to the man's vegetarianism, and the incomprehensible vegetarian habits of the third grandfather's family have caused the current situation of today's family heir crisis.
The old lady and the eldest lady were embarrassed, they were both mothers, and they could naturally see that if Gu Hui wanted to return to normal, he had to pay more effort than taking care of a healthy child, and the Ou family might have this one daughter under his knees in this life, and as the patriarch of the house, he couldn't really watch their mother and daughter die.
"Well, Ei'er stays and plays at home for a few days, if she likes it here, she can adapt to the life in the house, and we will think about it in the long run. A good girl is raised like this, I know that Ou Shi is also bitter in your heart. The eldest lady finally spoke.
Ou got up excitedly and knelt down and kowtowed, but Gu Hui still sat like a wooden man, licking the lollipop one by one.
Pang's mother immediately went out, summoned Jin Hu and a few of their girls in, sent Gu Hui back to Jicheng Hall first, and cleaned up the back cover building to settle the little girl.
Ou thanked him again and again, and asked Pang's mother to send someone to follow her for a while to find the carriage she was in when she came, and there were children's clothes and baggage on the carriage, obviously she had made preparations in advance.
Seeing that the time was not early, I thought that my husband might have returned home a long time ago, and told my daughter to play here for a few days, so I hurriedly left.
Bai Ko watched an inexplicable scene, and only felt that the housework on the third master's side was too good, and now that Gu Hui was placed here, if he didn't take care of it, would it be the responsibility of the Guogong Mansion again.
Gu Yun was also very depressed, he didn't expect how to catch up with such a thing, he really had to keep Gu Hui at home, and the effort and energy he paid was definitely much more than the money given by the Ou family.
After Ou and Gu Hui left, the old lady was also tired, and the eldest lady immediately retired, Gu Yun accompanied her mother to Jicheng Hall, and Bai Ko followed silently.
Back to Jicheng Hall, the eldest master and the sixth young master have also come back to rest, the little young master first went back to the house to sleep and didn't know about Gu Hui, the eldest master was sitting in the hall drinking tea, Gu Huijing accompanied the last seat, holding the candy lollipop in his hand and not throwing it, the girls wanted to take away the small stick in her hand, she would suddenly kick people excitedly, and after repeating it a few times, no one dared to step forward.
When the eldest lady and Gu Yun stepped into the door, they saw this helpless stalemate, and it was too late to regret it.
The eldest lord doesn't know as well as his mother and wife about the causes and consequences of the separation of the four sons of his third uncle's family, after all, when the old man intervened in this matter, he was still in the field, and he only heard from his family when he returned to Beijing to report on his work at the end of his term, and now he feels uncomfortable when he sees Gu Hui like this.
Gu Yun looked back and saw that Bai Ko did not follow the house, and asked people to go out to look for her, Bai Ko was actually standing in the courtyard, and when she heard the call, she hurried in, and was immediately stunned by the strange impasse in the atmosphere in the house, and then looked at Gu Hui, and her heart suddenly became clear.
"The maid will go back to Wenling Courtyard and come back immediately." After speaking, Bai Ko ran away.
The eldest lady and Gu Yun sat down to rest, wanting to see what Bai Ko had done, just right, the servant woman who followed Ou to find the carriage led Gu Hui's personal girl Shui Zhen into the house and kowtowed, but she couldn't take the stick from her own young lady's hand.
Wenling's courtyard was lively, and the girls who helped to light the fire had already returned, bringing back a lot of unused ingredients, and they chatted while eating, when they saw Bai Ko rushing in in a hurry.
"Bai Ko, have you come back from Rong En Hall? What is the old lady looking for you? ”
"Don't mention it, the third master's family has implicated the house again."
When Bai Ko ran, the small kitchen found a large soup bowl from the cupboard, then picked some vegetarian skewers from the spicy tang simmered on the tea stove, then beat a bowl of salted edamame, took a few food plates, and finally took a small pile of mulberry paper to put in a food box.
"What's wrong with the third master's house?" The facts of the last time were still fresh in their memories, and everyone's faces collapsed when they heard that it was related to the Third Master's Mansion.
"I'll tell you when I'm free." Bai Ko wanted to pick up the food box and leave, but she was still hungry, so she had gnawed two pigeon legs and a lollipop before, and now she saw that the boneless chicken feet in the pot were simmering just right, and her saliva couldn't help but flow, and she grabbed two skewers and gnawed them before leaving.
Bai Ko ran back to Jicheng Hall, first grabbed a girl and asked about the situation inside, and only after knowing it did he settle down and walked into the hall, the atmosphere inside was still weird, Gu Hui sat still, and still held the stick in his hand.
The girls helped Bai Ko open the food box and put the food inside on the small table in Gu Hui's hand, Gu Hui blinked when he saw so much food strung with sticks.
Bai Ko first took a piece of mulberry paper and folded a paper box, then picked up a string of bean rolls from the soup bowl and ate it in a big gulp, threw the skewer into the carton after eating, and then reached out to take a string of vegetarian sausages and continued to eat.
Gu Hui watched Bai Ko eat three or four strings in one go, and finally made a move, threw the sugar stick in his hand into the cardboard box, and took a bunch of mushrooms from the soup bowl and ate it awkwardly like Bai Ko.
The masters and maids who were quietly watching suddenly had a feeling of relief, and their tight shoulders relaxed together.
Bai Ko smiled and watched Gu Yi eat a bunch of mushrooms and take a second bunch, while she turned her hand and ate edamame, and the bean shells were also thrown into the carton.
Since childhood, the child who has been forced to eat a strict vegetarian diet has low mental retardation and abnormal temperament, Gu Hui does not know whether he is mentally retarded or not, but he is unresponsive and abnormal, everyone sees it, God knows if this child can return to normal after paying a lot of effort, her mother-in-law must have decided to send her daughter here because she no longer has any way to save her daughter, after all, how can outsiders know that this stupid girl is actually hurt by her parents and elders.
Gu Hui ate a few skewers and learned to eat edamame, looking at her clumsy mouth, she knew that she hadn't eaten this, maybe she hadn't even knocked the melon seeds, and she only peeled the beans with both hands, but she knew how to throw the bean shells into the carton.
The eldest man looked really uncomfortable, and lifted his feet into the bedroom for a lunch break.
Bai Qiao took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, and left the rest of the food for this Gu Hui to eat, and then someone outside the door said that the back cover building was cleaned up, and Shui Zhen went to pull her own young lady, wanting to take her back to the back to rest first.
Gu Hui suddenly became irritable again at this time, screaming and pushing Shui Zhen away, all his thoughts were on eating.
The eldest lady was also helpless, and told the servants and girls to take good care of her, and she also went back to the bedroom to rest.
The parents were rested, and Gu Yun didn't stay anymore, so he slipped Bai Ko and left
