As soon as the workshop started, Gu Daya and a few people came to see Qingying, and when they saw that her fever had subsided, their hearts settled down.

A few people had dinner and were sitting idlely, just listening to the mother-in-law who guarded the door, the eldest girl's father came, and a few girls ran to greet her, sure enough, it was Gu Shifu, and he brought a few girls side dishes and bayberry sauce made at home.

Seeing his father, Gu Daya kept talking, talking about things in the workshop for a while, and asking her about her mother and eldest brother for a while, Gu Shifu talked to her with a loving face, and by the way, he also brought a message from several other girls' families, which was not hindered by the fact that the family was very good, and hoped that they would take care of each other outside and not cause trouble.

After a while, Gu Shifu talked to Gu Qingzhu, Gu Daya took Qingying, big and small heads together, and couldn't wait to share the pickled cucumbers and sweet garlic made by each family, and from time to time she had to comment on one or two, Gu Daya didn't dare to give Qingying more to eat, and only pinched a little for her to taste.

Gu Shifu sat in Gu Qingzhu's house, took the water bowl she handed over, took a big sip and said: "Qingzhu, I was coming to the county to do business at noon today, and I deliberately went around to the wine shop to tell me about you, I didn't dare to delay, I came after work." ”

"Is there an eyebrow for the division of households, when can I do it?" When Gu Qingzhu heard this, he asked very happily.

"Hey, you're very tricky about this, it is said that with the family separation documents, as long as the family members report the roster of the family layer by layer, and go to the county government to sign and draw the pledge, but your father ......" Gu Shifu put down the bowl and sighed.

"The county said that I have to go to my father? There's no other way? Gu Qingzhu originally had great hopes, but when he heard this, his heart sank.

"If you say the law, it's not nothing, that is, let your second uncle issue a document and allow you to have a single independent household, but this ...... It seems unlikely. Gu Shifu took out his cigarette stick and lowered his head to fill the tobacco.

If Gu Shigui wants to issue documents, it is tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger, he prides himself on being the orthodoxy of the old Gu family all day long, and he wants to occupy the money of the big house, how can he let the fat out of his mouth.

"If it really doesn't work, I'll go and set up a female household, so as not to be oppressed by them all day long!" Gu Qingzhu bit his lip and said.

"Nonsense! What is a female household, no husband and no children, a woman is in charge, born as a female household, and died as a desperate household, how can this be done! If you set up a female household, how will you marry in the future if you are still so young? Besides, you still have your younger brother Qingsong, and he is not compliant. As soon as Gu Shifu lit a cigarette, he was choked by what Gu Qingzhu said.

"Can the green pine set up a household?" Gu Qingzhu hurriedly poured him another bowl of water.

"He can do it, but he is not old enough, he still needs to wait a few years, and there is another problem, if you set up a household in his name, your father's household registration will not be kept, belch, in short, it is very troublesome." Gu Shifu drank water, bit the cigarette holder, and shook his head in embarrassment.

Gu Qingzhu frowned, her father's life and death were uncertain, and her younger brother was still young, so she couldn't do it at this time, so she sat at the table a little dejectedly.

"Don't be too anxious about this matter, in a few days, Changlong should be steaming wine, and when we get paid, we will go back to serve the autumn tea, I am in the village, and your second uncle can't toss any moths." Gu Shifu took a few puffs of cigarette in a row, glanced at her, and said calmly.

"Thank you, Uncle Fu, I had to do this first." Gu Qingzhu cheered up and nodded.

"What's the thank you for this, I'm the head of a village, and your father is not at home, so I should take care of you, I see Qingying sick today, you have to bother to take care of it, don't be afraid to spend money, as for Erni, as long as it's not too much, you just don't pay attention to her."

Gu Shifu drank the water in the bowl in one gulp, put away the cigarette stick, stood up and said, "It's getting dark, I'm still rushing back to the winery, and we'll go back to the village about other things." ”

"Okay, I got it." Gu Qingzhu agreed and opened the door to see him off.

Gu Daya was reluctant to let his father go, and pulled him to talk for a while before reluctantly saying goodbye to him.

After Gu Qingzhu thought about it, he was at a loss, he couldn't get a household for a while, and the days of fighting wits and courage with the second room in the future would be long, just thinking about it would give him a headache.

When she stopped washing up at night and was about to sleep, Mama Guo suddenly came to Gu Qingzhu's room to see Qingying, and saw that she had taken medicine and was crooked on the bed like a milk cat playing with rag dolls, and even lost her spirit of the past, she couldn't help but sigh, sat down next to the bed, and touched her hair with pity.

"Mama, I want to take a few days off to take care of Qingying, and I also want to advance some wages, buy some rice and noodles, and make some soft food for her." Gu Qingzhu stood next to him and whispered.

She couldn't guess why Mama Guo came, but she used the firewood and japonica rice in the kitchen today, but she was afraid that people would sue her behind her back, saying that she took advantage of the weaving workshop for nothing, so it was better to spend her own money to buy it separately.

Mama Guo turned to look at her and said gently: "The master informed someone to come and say hello before, in the final analysis, Qingying's illness is more or less related to the weaving workshop, she is a sick child, how much can she eat, you just have to take the ready-made in the kitchen, no one can chew the root of the tongue for this." ”

"Mr. Tan is so polite, when he goes to the doctor in the morning, he confiscates the medical bills, and I don't know how to thank him for taking care of him like this now." Gu Qingzhu said sincerely and gratefully.

"It's not easy to say thank you." Mama Guo said, took Gu Qingzhu's hand, walked to the table and sat down.

"Mama, if there's anything going on, you might as well say it directly." Gu Qingzhu poured her a bowl of water.

"You've been working in the weaving mill before, and you reel the most silk every day, and I know you want to earn more money, and now that you're taking a leave of absence to take care of your sister, why don't you help out in the kitchen?"

The third master has always been unaccustomed to eating the dishes made by the mother-in-law in the kitchen, either because he is too oily, or because he is too salty, he would rather make tea and rice, so that the whole kitchen will not be able to cook, and the taste is getting worse and worse.

Although the third master only bought 10,000 taels of shares in the weaving workshop, he was very concerned about the affairs of the workshop, and he came to see it every day, which was not an easy task for a person like him who had no longevity.

But if he can't even eat well here, and he loses half a pound and eight taels, my old wife can't stand the eldest lady's entrustment, and I won't be able to see the ancestors of the Mu family. Mama Guo didn't drink the bowl of water, but only rubbed the rough patterns on the bowl with her fingertips.

"Since Mama said so, I have no reason not to agree." Gu Qingzhu said briskly.

Mama Guo said that it was all for the eldest lady of the Tan family, in addition to loyalty, there was also a deep love for licking calves, besides, this time Qingying was sick, Mu Jincheng could be regarded as a great help, she thought about cooking a few meals, and she should be grateful.

Seeing that Gu Qingzhu agreed so easily, Mama Guo was very happy, she took out a smoke-colored purse from her sleeve pocket, and said, "There are ten taels of silver here, you will go to the vegetable market tomorrow to buy it, if it is not enough, just ask Xiaolai." ”

"This ...... Isn't it too much? Gu Qingzhu hesitated.

"You just need to use it, and you don't have to report to me, as long as the third master is willing to eat well, everything will be fine." Mama Guo covered her mouth and yawned.

"I know, Mama is tired for a day, I'll send you back to rest." Gu Qingzhu stood up and helped her.

"I'm sorry for you, I'm waiting outside." Mama Guo patted her hand, remembered it and said, "By the way, you cook two meals a day, and I will give you twenty yuan a day's wages, although this is not as good as silk reeling, but it can't let you work in vain." ”

"How good is that?" Gu Qingzhu was a little surprised.

"You are a kind person, others give a little bit of good, they feel very rare, know how to cherish, you know, the Tan family has always been lenient and tolerant of people, and has always been honest and modest, but it is out of Xiaoji's file, it is really in vain for four or five years of my energy, I actually raised a white-eyed wolf, and it also brought the Tan family's innocent reputation for decades!" Mama Guo said, and couldn't help shaking her head and sighing.

"Mama is more than bothering, otherwise, she won't be able to sleep well at night." Gu Qingzhu persuaded her in a low voice.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about her." Mama Guo stopped talking and went out.

Xiaolai picked her up at the door, carried a lantern to illuminate her, and went back to rest.

At night, Gu Qingzhu got up several times to see Qingying, and when she saw that she didn't continue to get hot and slept peacefully, she dared to close her eyes and squint.

On the second day, in the morning light, Gu Qingzhu got up and went to the vegetable market to buy, naturally the sooner the better, she went out after washing.

At this time, it was already a dog day, even if she stood still, she was sweating profusely, and people had no appetite, Gu Qingzhu went around the vegetable market, bought two bitter gourds, a few tomatoes, a cabbage, and all kinds of green and red peppers, she didn't see Lu Xiaoqi in the vegetable market, so she bought a rooster that had been raised for a year.

When she came back, the girls only got up in twos and threes, Gu Qingzhu put the dishes in the kitchen, and went to see Qingying, but fortunately, she still maintained the sleeping position when she left, and she didn't even turn over.

Laundry and washing, decoction and porridge, Gu Qingzhu was very busy, Qingying knew that the eldest sister was going to accompany her for a few days, so she rolled on the bed happily, and stuck to her after breakfast.

Yesterday, Xiao Lai told the fat woman in charge of the kitchen, saying that from now on, Gu Qingzhu will cook for the third master, she is so happy that she can't help but recite Amitabha Buddha several times.

This difficult lord could no longer torture her.

The mother-in-law in the kitchen, in order to thank Gu Qingzhu for saving them, took the initiative to help her wash all the dishes.

In addition, there is also a separate place in the kitchen for Gu Qingzhu to use, with a lot of oil and salt seasonings, and all kinds of pots and pans.

The kitchen was too hot in the summer, Gu Qingzhu coaxed Qingying to stay in the house and play by herself, and she plunged into the kitchen.

The annual rooster has firm meat, but it is not dry, Gu Qingzhu is equipped with ginger star anise and other spices, and directly put it in a clay pot to stew, and after about half an hour, she moved the clay pot aside.

Vegetables are easier to get, a plate of cold bitter gourd, a plate of sweet and sour cabbage, and a pot of tomato egg soup, Gu Qingzhu only took half an hour to finish.

At this time, the clay pot was slightly cool, Gu Qingzhu took out the cooked chicken, put it in a ventilated place to dry, and added salt to the chicken soup boiled by boiling, and boiled peppercorns and dried chili peppers over low heat, but after half a cup of tea, the kitchen was filled with the fresh fragrance of chicken and the spicy taste of double peppers.

Gu Qingzhu washed his hands carefully, tore the whole chicken along the texture little by little, and after a while, the flesh and bone were separated, and the meatless sternum was removed, and the chicken just piled up a large bowl of meat.

This time, Gu Qingzhu bought a line pepper for shrimp roe paste, washed it, and cut two of them, one bright red and one green, sprinkled on the chicken, red, white and green are staggered, bright and intense.

Waiting for the double pepper chicken soup boiled on the side to cool, Gu Qingzhu took out the pepper pepper and poured the chicken soup into the sea bowl, which happened to drown the chicken, and the green and red peppers floated on it, looking very beautiful.

"Miss Gu, what did you do? The smell is too fresh! The fat butler wrinkled his nose and poked his head in to sniff.

"It's a double pepper chicken eaten in the countryside, is the third master here? The dish will be served in no time. Gu Qingzhu said while cleaning up the kitchen.

"He doesn't seem to be here today?" The fat steward said with some uncertainty.

"Huh?" Gu Qingzhu looked at the dishes on the board, and his hands froze.
