In the hall, Gui Chongyang didn't eat a pie, Du Qi had already used three, and picked up the fourth.

Seeing Gui Chongyang looking over, Du Qi said embarrassedly: "I have a lot of food." ”

"But eating too fast is not conducive to health." Gui Chongyang Road.

"My mother said that if you grow your body, you will eat fast and hungry quickly." Du Qidao: "In addition to three meals a day, I will add two more meals." ”

Mei Xiaoba's eyes widened and said, "Fortunately, you grew up in the Lizheng family, if this is someone else's family, you must not be poor." ”

Du Qi's eyebrows were crooked: "My mother said that my mother can afford to raise me, but I can eat hard." ”

Gui Chongyang's face did not change, but he felt that something was wrong in his heart.

If Du Qi is a two- or three-year-old milk doll, then it is naturally chubby and cute; Now it's twelve, but it's a weight of 15 or 60 pounds, which is a big circle more than others. When you are a father, you don't care if your son's body can stand it?

After lunch, Du Qi cheered, because everyone took fishing nets and fishing rods to the river.

"I haven't fished yet, and my mother won't let me go to the water." Du Qi hurriedly looked forward to it.

Gui Chongyang couldn't help but think of "Dad", and he didn't let himself go to the water's edge. However, there is a lot of water in the south, and it is impossible to prevent it, so "Dad" still asked someone to teach Gui Chongyang to float.

However, Gui Chongyang used to be weak, he couldn't be outside in the hot weather, he couldn't be outside in the cold, and he still didn't come out of the house a lot, and he was quiet since he was a child, not as lively and active as ordinary children.

Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, there are many fewer children playing by the river.

When Gui Chongyang and his party fell, only two children left with half a bucket of snails.

Du Qi's saliva flowed down again: "Snails, I love to eat them." ”

Mei Xiaoba smiled and handed the fishing rod and net to Gui Chongyang and Du Qi, and said, "Then you two are fishing by the river, catching fish, and I will touch the snails." ”

"Can you still go into the water?" Gui Chongyang said: "Forget if the water is cold, don't cramp." ”

Mei Xiaoba pointed to the sky and said, "It's noon, the sun is full, the water is warm, it's not in the way." ”

This is the time when the so-called "autumn tiger" is raging, and at noon it is hot in single clothes, and the river is also warm.

Gui Chongyang took a fishing rod and fished in the shade of a tree.

Du Qi took a simple fishing net and half a bowl of bait, and played by the river to learn how to lay the net.

At noon, the big fish and small fish all sank to the bottom, and Gui Chongyang found nothing here. However, Du Qi's blind cat ran into a dead mouse, and there was a harvest in the fishing net.

But it was a long one, his body writhing, and his face was hideous, Du Qi was so frightened that he immediately threw away the fishing net and shouted: "Snake! There are snakes! ”

Mei Xiaoba and Gui Chongyang were both startled, knowing that the water snake bites. Even if it's not poisonous, it's terrifying enough.

"Are you alright? Biting? Both of them went to Du Qi.

Du Qi's legs were weak, he shook his head vigorously, pointed to the fishing net that was thrown on the ground, and gestured: "I didn't bite it, there is a snake, so big, so thick!" ”

Gui Chongyang and Mei Xiaoba both looked at the fishing nets.

Gui Chongyang was still on guard, and Mei Xiaoba had already run towards the fishing net.

"Hachi!" Gui Chongyang frowned.

Mei Xiaoba had already squatted down, grabbed the fishing net, turned around and said excitedly: "Brother Chongyang, it's not a water snake, it's a yellow eel, or an old yellow eel." ”

Yellow eels are eaten, and they cannot be compared with water snakes.

Gui Chongyang breathed a sigh of relief, and Du Qi already had palpitations and said, "Why does it look like a snake, and it looks weird and scary?" ”

Mei Xiaoba said: "It's different, the yellow eel is thicker than the snake, there are no scales, and the braised is the best!" As he spoke, he was already full of tongues.

Du Qifang was still scared, but now when he heard this, he immediately said: "How many catties must there be in this one, right?" Is it all braised in a big pot. ”

Mei Xiaoba was straight and said, "You still don't go home to eat?" Your mother won't look for you? ”

Du Qiyi immediately wilted when he heard this, and whispered: "I don't want to go home, I want to play with you." As he spoke, he looked at Gui Chongyang with his small eyes.

The atmosphere of the Du family is not good, and Sister Du Liu'er has changed her personality if she fails to "seek death", she doesn't like to go out of the house, and the whole person has become gloomy. Although Duri is patient with his son, he is also holding back the fire in his heart; Lee's spirit here is not very refreshing.

Du Qi felt that his family was in a panic, and he didn't want to stay at home.

Gui Chongyang said: "It's okay for you to come to learn Linzi, but you have to make it clear to your parents that you are not a child, and you can't let your parents worry about it." ”

Du Qi loves to hear this sentence. He was twelve years old, and he was no longer a child. He straightened his chest and said, "Well, I'll go home in a while and tell my father and mother that I will study with the two of you in the next few days of vacation." ”

Gui Chongyang remembered that tomorrow was the eighteenth, the day when the restaurant in the town opened, so he said: "Ming'er is afraid that it will not work, Ming'er, my fifth uncle's shop is open, and our family will go to the town to eat and drink." ”

When Du Qi heard this, he immediately prayed: "Is Xiaoba going too?" Then I'll be left alone, what's the point, can you take me there? ”

It was Gui Chongyang's business, but in order to reduce trouble, he temporarily used the name of Gui Wu. Gui Chongyang wants to bring one more person, naturally it is not difficult.

It's just that Gui Chongyang didn't want to get used to Du Qi's random requests, and muttered: "Then I'll ask the elders in the family to see if they are allowed, and you can also ask your father and mother if they are going to the town." ”

Before Du Qi could speak, he heard someone shouting "Seventh Brother" from afar.

It was the skinny guy who followed Du Qi before, and when Du Qi was studying in the county school before, the little guy acted as his scholar; Now that he has returned to the village school, no one has taken a scholar, and Du Qi will not allow the thin boy to follow him.

"Seventh brother, my wife called Seventh Brother's house to go." The thin guy approached and said respectfully.

Du Qiyi was excited, looked at Gui Chongyang and Mei Xiaoba, and said, "I'll go home first, are you still playing here?" I'll come back to you later, right? ”

Gui Chongyang shook his head and said, "We'll go home too." ”

Du Qi immediately said with great interest: "Then don't forget to help me ask Aunt Mei to see if you can take me to eat and drink tomorrow." ”

"I have to hurry up early, and I guess I will leave before six o'clock in the morning." Gui Chongyang Road.

Du Qi immediately said: "There is a morning class in the county school, I can get up early, just take me there." ”

Gui Chongyang had already said that he wanted to ask the elders, so naturally it was not good to nod directly, so he said, "Then you send someone over to ask at dinner." ”

Du Qihuan was overjoyed, pointed to the little guy and said, "Okay, okay, I'll let Baisui come over and ask when the time comes." ”

"100 years old" is the name of the little guy.

Gui Chongyang nodded, and everyone left the river together and said goodbye at the intersection.

Mei Xiaoba was still immersed in the joy of harvest: "Send half a strip to the second grandmother's house, the second grandfather also mentioned the yellow eel before!" ”

Mei Xiaoba is honest, plus he is Mei Qingzhu's heir, Gui Chun's brother-in-law, and the elders in the second room are very kind to him. He knew what was good and bad, and he also got close to the second room of the Gui family from his heart.

Gui Chongyang nodded and said, "You are in charge, but in the end it was Du Qi who caught it, Ming'er, let's go to the town to buy him some food." ”

Mei Xiaoba also has pocket money in her pocket, thirty dollars a month. Mei Xiaoba is sparse, not stingy, and when he meets a merchant, he will buy a silk flower or a snack for Mei and Mei Duo.

Mei Xiaoba nodded and said, "Then I'll buy mung bean cake for Du Qige tomorrow." ”

The two said this and went back to the Gui family's old house.

Seeing that Du Qi did not come back with him, Mei's expression paused, carrying the yellow eel, and his spirit was a little trance-like.

Gui Chongyang saw that something was wrong, and sent Mei Xiaoba to the West Chamber to Wenshu, only to chase him to the kitchen and said, "Auntie, but what's wrong with Du Qi?" ”

Mei Shi was stunned and whispered, "What do you know?" ”

Gui Chongyang said: "What else can there be?" Didn't the elders suspect Du Qi's bloodline before? It was only because Du was born in full term, and his birthday was eleven months away from his uncle's birthday, that he went to the elders' hearts to doubt. However, the Du family has little contact with the village, and few people have seen the Li family who is a confinement child, and no one can say when the child's birthday is. ”

"Is that so?" Mei nodded and said: "When the Li family was in confinement, the Li family went to see it, but they all said that Du Qibazi was light, and the Li family had just died. Because of this, Mrs. Li cursed at home for several days, and I just listened to it. ”

I used to think that the Du family's explanation was reasonable, but now it seems that there are no loopholes.

Gui Chongyang said: "Auntie is looking at the similarities between Du Qi and uncle? ”

Mei Shi pointed to Gui Chongyang's ear and said, "Du Qi has a 'bolted horse pile', and your uncle also has it." How many times have you seen Douri, have you ever paid attention to him? ”

Gui Chongyang returned to Mujia Village for almost three months, and he had seen Du Li Zheng three or four times in total, and he had a few good memories, plus he paid special attention to Du Li Zheng, so he naturally remembered it clearly.

"Yes, in front of the right ear, a soybean-sized 'bolted horse pile'!" Gui Chongyang pondered, recalled, and said with affirmation.

"Huh?" Mei couldn't help but be dumbfounded, how can this be distinguished?

If it is "the son of the enemy", it is a kind of treatment; If it is really the "Gui family bloodline", it is naturally another treatment. Now that this is the case, how can we deal with it?
