In the golden autumn season, the mountains are dyed, a touch of morning glow, the autumn leaves are soaked and dyed more gorgeous, and the ground is sprinkled with golden yellow in the small courtyard.

A sharp and piercing voice like a broken gong broke the tranquility of the small courtyard: "Don't lie on the bed and stand up, I've been serving you for a few days with delicious food and drink, and I really think I'm the eldest lady!" How busy is the family, and you still have to lie in bed to hide lazy! Dead or not? Get up and cook before you die! ”

Gu Ye slowly opened his eyes, not even bothering to sigh. She sat up and began to dress, five days had passed since she had been picked up from the mountain by her people. In the past few days, she has woken up to Liu's scolding every day. That woman really makes people want to poison her dumb.

After lying in bed for five days, drinking warm potions and eating nutritious meals, Gu Ye's body was gradually recovering, although he was still frighteningly thin, his spirit was getting better and better day by day, and he also had some strength.

Seeing Gu Ye obediently leaving the house, the corners of Liu's mouth hooked up with a smug smile: "The pigweed has been beaten back, and the pigs will be fed in a while." When the meal is ready, remember to send it to the field, don't be lazy! ”

After speaking, she glared at Gu Ye fiercely again, and went out with her pickaxe on her shoulder. At this time, it was a busy harvest season, and everyone in the village who could go to the field was busy in the fields. In previous years, the original owner was also one of the main laborers participating in the autumn harvest, but this year, thanks to the blessing of this dilapidated body, he only needs to do housework at home.

Gu Ye slowly took a toothbrush and toothpaste from the space, brushed his teeth and washed his face, and combed his yellow hair into two twisted braids and hung them on his shoulders. I stretched out my arms and kicked in the yard, did a set of fitness exercises, and then walked into the kitchen in three steps.

The kitchen was very clean, and the cutting board was stocked with ingredients and grains to be made at noon. In order to have a strong autumn harvest, the family increased from two meals a day to three meals. Of course, she, a "waste" who can't go down to the ground to help, is directly deprived of the right to breakfast.

At this time, the food of the family has been improved, and they can eat at least one meal of meat a day to ensure that they have the physical strength to survive the autumn harvest. On the kitchen table, a piece of blackened bacon was cut into seven or eight slices, a handful of beans, two eggplants, and a bowl of thick noodles and fine noodles...... It's all the ingredients for a family of six's lunch.

Gu Ye touched his rumbling belly, not wanting to feed on the tasteless nutrient solution anymore. She moved a stool, took a small half bowl of white noodles from the basket hanging from the beam, turned out the clay pot that Liu had hidden, and took an egg from it. Add a few slices of spinach and make myself a bowl of fragrant egg gnocchi soup, and drink it hot.

Fortunately, the original owner's cooking skills barely passed, you must know that in her previous life, she could even cook porridge and burn the kitchen.

Two pigs and six hens were fed in the backyard. After feeding these poultry and livestock, Gu Ye began to make lunch. One stove cooks porridge, the other stove stews with carob and eggplant, and the edge of the pot is pasted with cakes - the original owner has always cooked like this.

I found some seasonings from the space, so I added some five-spice powder and chicken essence to the usual boiled dishes, although I don't know if the amount is right, but it is much better than the white water stew. I fished a bowl of pickles from the pickle jar and chopped them, then fried another pickles in the pot, and finally completed the task of cooking.

Looking at this unsatisfactory meal, Gu Ye felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart - this was the first time she had completed a meal independently, and the kitchen was still alive! Should I let that stinky ice cube see her masterpiece, and dare she be a cooking idiot?

Gu Ye's smug smile gradually faded, and she remembered the moment when she was swallowed by the beasts in her previous life, the familiar shouts she heard, and the sad and desperate handsome face in the last glimpse. It turns out that his ice cube face has other expressions!

"Sister," Gu Ming's voice interrupted her thoughts, "You're not well yet, go back and lie down, I'll do the work at home...... You've got your meal ready? Tired or not? Is there anything uncomfortable? ”

Gu Ye turned around and smiled at him: "Brother, how can I be so fragile?" Dr. Wu also said, let me get up and move properly, which is good for my body. Come, how about you try my cooking? She looked pleading for praise.

Gu Ming opened her mouth to catch the eggplant pieces sent to her mouth, chewed them carefully, her eyes lit up, and she did not hesitate to praise the words: "It's still delicious that my sister's cooking, and what the bad lady makes is like pig food compared to you!" Since that incident, Gu Ming has refused to call Liu's "mother" anymore.

Gu Ye giggled, and winked at him mischievously: "Brother, you said that, but you scolded the two of us together." ”

Gu Ming was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. After my sister fell seriously ill, her temperament became much more cheerful and lively, unlike in the past, when there was a disturbance, her face turned pale with fright, trembling all over, and she just wanted to hide. In order to protect his sister's smile, he must be strong and never compromise with Liu.

Gu Ming helped her sister put the food in the basket and carried it to the field. Gu Ye followed behind him slowly, originally Gu Ye was going to help carry it, but his brother resolutely refused. Looking at Gu Ming, who was walking in front and struggling to carry the food, Gu Ye's heart was warm - it's good to have a brother who can take care of people!

"Xiao Ye, brought food to your father?"

"Xiao Ye, your illness is cured and you can go to the ground?"

"Xiao Yezi, you kid is still too thin, eat more. If your mother doesn't give you food, go to your aunt's house and get it, and your aunt will borrow it from you. Don't lose your body and fall into the root of the disease. ”

In the fields on both sides of the mountain road, the villagers who were busy saw the figure of the brother and sister and greeted them warmly. Accustomed to the indifferent interest relationship between people, and suddenly surrounded by the simple enthusiasm of the villagers, Gu Ye didn't know how to deal with it, just smiled and nodded at them. The original owner was originally timid and cowardly, and the villagers did not notice her change.

"Okay, you Gu Ming, a soak of is quite far, and you go home? You lazy bastard, as soon as you are asked to work, you will cheat and play tricks! Tell you, if you don't harvest the sorghum of these two acres, you won't want to eat at night! Liu, who was far away, saw Gu Ming helping Gu Ye carry things, and he was immediately furious, and suddenly jumped up, and the saliva in his mouth spurted out far away.

"Old Seven, I don't think you're tired, and you still have the strength to jump here. It's good to be young, I've been so busy all morning that I don't even have the strength to speak! The person who spoke was the third grandmother in the clan, and she had long been unaccustomed to Liu's treatment of the two children in the front room.

The man of the third grandmother is the brother of the patriarch, and when he was young, he was also the unforgiving lord, and when he was young, he had few opponents in the village, and his temperament was slightly softened when he was old.

The Liu family didn't want to offend the patriarch, so when he heard the words, he could only purse his lips and muttered a few words in his heart: You still said that you didn't have the energy to speak, but you didn't say a word.

Liu rushed over, snatched the rice basket, stared at the bacon slices in the dish like a hungry wolf staring at its prey, counted it several times, and picked up the cakes one by one and checked them in his hand. Then he glared at Gu Ye viciously, and bluffed: "Dead girl, are you stealing food at home?" ”

"I didn't steal it, others don't know, can you still not know?" If it was replaced by the original owner, he would have been frightened by Liu's fierce eyes, but Gu Ye asked unhurriedly as if he hadn't seen it.

Liu was choked and rushed straight to the top of her head, and just wanted to scold, but was interrupted by her son: "Starving, starving!" Why is the meal delivered so late, are you lazy at home? ”

Da Zhuang said, he had already touched a piece of cake from the basket, and when he was about to pinch the bacon, he was slapped on the back of his hand by Liu: "No rules, your father hasn't come over yet, no one can move this meat!" Daddy, kid, let's take a break—"

Gu Ye served a bowl of porridge to each person, and Liu began to divide the cakes. The cakes that Gu Ming's two brothers and sisters got were all broken by one-third. After she gave a piece of bacon to Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang, she gave the rest to Gu Qiao, and she was not willing to eat it, let alone Gu Ming and Gu Ye.

The stew with two more seasonings will naturally taste much better. Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang were like starving ghosts, their chopsticks moved quickly, and Gu Ming also sped up the rhythm of picking vegetables, not only for himself, but also for his sister from time to time.

Gu Ye had just eaten a bowl of pimple soup, and the cake in his hand was stuffed to his brother after only two bites: "Brother, my stomach can't eat too hard food, otherwise my stomach will hurt again, you can help me eat the cake." ”

Gu Ming didn't refuse, and took advantage of Liu's lack of attention to him, and quietly whispered in her sister's ear: "I'll borrow some white rice from Aunt Jiu's house in the evening and make porridge for you to drink." ”

"No need, Aunt Jiu's fine grain is not abundant, and it is not good to always trouble others." Gu Ye was a little hesitant, after all, she was just an aunt in the clan, and she was afraid that the only affection she had would be consumed in borrowing grain again and again.

"Sister, don't worry, as long as you are good, no matter how big the love is, there will always be a day to pay it back." Gu Ming decided to dig a few traps by herself at night, hoping to gain something.

At this time, Gu Qiao spoke: "Ye'er, you are too weak to do heavy work, you will do the meals in the future, as for the rest of the work...... you, you're going to have to work so hard these days. ”

Liu's face stretched long: "Everyone in and outside the family pointed at me, and no one confessed to being tired and tired, and I had to be pointed at my backbone and said that I abused children." What do you mean I pictured? ”

After eating, Gu Ye didn't go back immediately, she decided to stay and help her brother collect the two acres of sorghum land. Liu said that if he couldn't finish it, his brother would have nothing to eat at night. You must know that an adult who works all day will only receive two acres of land.

Gu Ming bent down in front to cut the sorghum stalks, and Gu Ye helped cut the sorghum ears and bundle them into bundles. When two people cooperate, the speed is naturally much faster. Gu Ming was afraid that her sister would be tired, so she urged her to rest from time to time.
