86 Walking the Chicken (1st Shift)
The old lady glanced at Gu Jiao and then at Xiao Liulang, her eyes were fascinated.
I feel like I'm going to hold my little great-grandchild soon!
Gu Jiao seamlessly switched and asked Feng Lin.
Xiao Liulang also replied seriously: "He went back to the academy and went to Fucheng for a month, delaying a lot of classes." ”
This time, thanks to Feng Lin, his goodness, Gu Jiao wrote it down.
While the two were talking, several young yellow chicks swaggered out.
Xiao Liulang found out that he had been away from home for more than a month, and his family had started raising chickens.
Gu Jiao is not interested in raising chickens, but Xiao Qingkong occasionally sees the chicks next door, and he likes it so much that he asks Gu Jiao if he can raise a few.
Gu Jiao said that he could raise them, but there was a condition, he had to take care of the chickens by himself, and he couldn't feed and clean up the chicken manure.
In order to let Xiao Jingkong understand the difficulty of raising chickens, Gu Jiao asked him to go to Xue Ningxiang's house to feed the chickens for two days, not only cute chicks, but also old hens and big roosters that have matured and are no longer cute.
And Gu Jiao told him that all the chicks who look cute now will one day grow into old hens and big roosters.
As a result, this couldn't dissuade him, so Gu Jiao could only let him raise it.
He raised seven, each of which was fat.
He also gave them names, from one to seven, and it is not known how he identified them.
Xiao Liulang brought the old lady a Pingcheng specialty - candied dried bayberry, this season bayberry just fruited, the fruit is not big, the sour taste is very strong, but this kind of bayberry is most suitable for candied pickles, sweet and sour taste will not be greasy.
Xiao Liulang brought two cans, one with a core and one with a core.
Don't look at it as just two cans of food, but this is the most famous canned bayberry in Pingcheng, and it coincides with the fact that there are many students in the exam, and it is almost snatched up as soon as it comes out every day.
Xiao Liulang went to line up in the middle of the night and shrank in the cold wind for a long time.
The old lady pulled a seedless dried bayberry and gave it to the dog's egg.
The dog's eggs sucked and drooled.
Gu Xiaoshun hadn't finished school yet, and Xiao Liulang also brought him something, which was a complete set of tools for making wood carving, which was particularly complete.
Zhaoguo's control over iron is extremely strict, and it is difficult for ordinary people to buy such fine and complete iron tools, and Xiao Liulang bought it only after he blackmailed Luo Taishou.
Seeing Xiao Liulang's burden deflated.
Xiao Qingkong walked the chicken, his face was not concerned, but he glanced up from time to time into the burden that Xiao Liulang was carrying.
Gu Jiao caught his little strangeness and asked, "Is Jingkong also looking forward to his gift?" ”
"I didn't!" The little clearance turned his head proudly.
A bad brother-in-law won't buy him a gift!
Xiao Liulang took in the awkwardness of the little guy, the relationship between the two was enough to choke, but they were separated for more than a month, and now they are not even unfamiliar.
Xiao Liulang took out a set of Kong Ming locks from his baggage: "Don't forget it, I'll give it to the dog." ”
"No way!" Xiao Jingkong jumped down from the chair and snatched Kong Mingsuo in his arms, "He, he's small!" He can't play! ”
Goudan looked at the little brother blankly, completely unaware of what was going on.
The last is Gu Jiao's.
It was a very delicate brocade box, and just looking at the box made me feel that it was worth a lot.
Gu Jiao secretly gestured the length of the brocade box.
Is it a hairpin?
Such an expensive box, at least a silver hairpin.
Silver hairpins are rare in the countryside, generally wooden hairpins, and the more arrogant ones are copper hairpins. Silver hairpins can only be bought by people with good conditions, and they are only willing to wear them on very important days.
Of course, the most important thing is that if a man gives a woman a hairpin, it represents some kind of unspeakable meaning!
Gu Jiao's face was full of words: I like it so much, I like it so much, I like it so much!
Let's go.
Xiao Liulang opened the brocade box.
But it's not a hairpin, it's a brush!
Gu Jiao was dumbfounded on the spot.
Xiao Liulang said: "Your handwriting is always not good at practice, in addition to the wrong posture of holding the pen, it also has something to do with the brush." This is a wolf pen made by a famous craftsman in Heicheng, which is very suitable for your strength. ”
He introduced it seriously, but Gu Jiao was not very good.
Is the hairpin hot to the hand?
Want to send her a pen for Mao?
It's like giving a set of real exam questions to a student who just wants to play kryptonite games, can she refuse?!
Looking at Gu Jiaoqiang's little appearance of holding back her madness, the old lady laughed so much that her stomach hurt!
- There is a need that Rokuro thinks you need.
Gu Jiao held the wolf pen in her arms, and her little face turned black into charcoal.
Then Xiao Liulang handed her a bronze pair of plates, which was engraved with Zhou Ji Qianzhuang.
"I've got my money in the bank, so if you need it, you can get it yourself."
Xiao Liulang didn't say the specific amount, and Gu Jiao didn't ask, she was still immersed in the violent mood of being given a brush.
What Gu Jiao didn't know was that this wolf pen was more expensive than the gifts of the rest of the people combined, and it was not something that could be bought by such mundane things as silver.
Gu Jiao didn't walk away for too long, she still remembered business.
Before leaving, Gu Jiao told Feng Lin to keep an eye on Xiao Liulang's daily practice of walking, and now she wants to accept the results!
Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang went to the Westinghouse and looked at his ankles.
The wound of the operation had faded to the point that it was almost invisible, Gu Jiao reached out and pinched it: "Does it still hurt?" ”
Xiao Liulang shook his head: "It doesn't hurt." ”
"It doesn't hurt at all?" Gu Jiao looked up at him.
He nodded, "Yes." ”
Gu Jiao pinched his legs and stomach again, it felt good, it seemed that Feng Lin was not lazy.
The weakened texture has basically recovered after nearly four months of rehabilitation, that is to say, Xiao Liulang does not have weakness in his legs and feet.
He still hasn't lost his crutches, and the biggest problem may come from his psyche.
Gu Jiao had seen many similar cases in her previous life, some of them were because she was afraid of being injured again and over-protected herself, but most of them would gradually fade and improve with the passage of time.
The other is more complicated.
The patient has a heart knot.
If he can't break that knot, he will always live in a state of injury to punish himself or avoid something.
In the time between Gu Jiao's thoughts, Xiao Liulang had already put down his trouser legs and went out with a cane.
Gu Jiao looked at his cold and lonely back, and couldn't help but wonder, what had he experienced?
--
The news of Xiao Liulang's admission to Xiucai quickly spread throughout the ten miles and eight townships, and the Gu family, as a big family in the village, of course heard the news.
They really never dreamed that Xiao Liulang would be able to take two case exams in a row, and finally be admitted to the school.
Obviously, the scumbag who almost couldn't even pass the Tianxiang Academy exam, how could he be admitted to the same school as Dashun?
And he is also a student, Xiao Liulang's is obviously more golden, otherwise the rice that would not be sent to Xiao Liulang is much better than the rice sent to Gu Dashun?
"What about the two heads, only one is three yuan less." At the dinner table, Gu Changlu said enviously.
Was he born unwilling to read?
No.
It's just that he can't read it, and he has two sons later, and he expects them to read it, but the family who is willing to read it can't afford it, and it is Gu Xiaoshun who is not angry to enter the school for free.
How did the Gu family know that it was not that Xiao Liulang couldn't pass the Xiao Sanyuan exam, but that he took the initiative to give up Xiao Sanyuan.
The faces of the people at the table were a little ugly.
The most ugly thing is Gu Dashun.
Xiao Liulang, who had always been despised by himself, suddenly turned over and rode on his head, and Gu Dashun's heart was not smooth: "Dean Li personally tutored him, of course his progress was great, and in the month before the county exam, I saw Dean Li call him to Zhongzheng Hall every day." ”
He didn't believe that Xiao Liulang soared to the sky with his own ability, obviously in terms of qualifications, Xiao Liulang was not as good as himself, if the person who was personally tutored by Dean Li was himself, then he would definitely be able to get better results than Xiao Liulang.
To put it bluntly, he lost in resources.
If it was in the past, the Gu family would definitely follow Xiao Liulang, but tonight everyone didn't answer a word.
This made Gu Dashun frown slightly.
He felt that the atmosphere at home seemed to be different from before recently, and everyone looked preoccupied, except for Gu Xiaoshun.
It is not surprising that he would think so, after the Gu family's idea of beating the daughter of the Hou Mansion failed, Gu Jiao's matter was completely over.
didn't need any interrogation methods for Gu Houye, just let Huang Zhong walk around the village to make Gu Jiao's experience from childhood to adulthood clear.
This is the bloodline of the Hou Mansion, can it be bullied like this? Isn't this rubbing Gu Houye's face on the ground?
Gu Houye's anger can be imagined.
If it weren't for Gu Jinyu and the Gu family's three-room couple, Gu Hou Ye would have arrested the family and beaten them to death!
But capital sins can be avoided, but living sins cannot be escaped.
Old Man Gu's Li Zheng has done it.
This is the most wronged time for Old Man Gu, he went to the clan to have a drink, and when he came back, the custodian was gone, and he was still cheated by his mother-in-law and son and daughter-in-law.
As for Gu Jinyu's side, Gu Houye asked the Gu family to give up Gu Jinyu's custody, and swore that he would never appear in front of Gu Jinyu in this life.
In addition, he kept his mouth shut for Gu Houye, and not a word was allowed to be leaked out.
So the Gu family even hid Gu Dashun and Gu Xiaoshun from each other.
Gu Ershun overheard some and knew that Gu Jiao might be the wrong child, but he didn't know much more.
The above is one of the reasons for the strange atmosphere, and the second is that the female relatives of the family actually went to the table to eat.
Gu Dashun is not used to this.
Gu Dashun glanced at his sister Gu Yue, thought of something, and said, "Jiao Niang is really blessed, she is married to a showman." ”
His sister is not young, it stands to reason that she should kiss, if she marries a good family, it will also be a help to him.
Gu Yue'e ate without saying a word.
Everyone said in their hearts, is it a blessed girl? It's obviously Xiao Liulang's kid! Does he know who he married? The daughter of the Hou Mansion!
It's a good thing that fell from the sky!
Speaking of this family business, they were careless, if they had known that girl had such a background, they would not have married her off!
Stay at home as a cash cow, I don't know how much benefit I can ask for from the Hou Mansion!
The Gu family was ruined and their intestines were green, but what could they do? The girl is no longer stupid and foolish, and it won't be so easy for them to repair the relationship even if they want to.
Wu glanced at Liu and asked her to pick up the big meat in the bowl.
This is really big meat, each slice is cut very thickly, and the fat DC oil will only be eaten by Gu Dashun in the future.
Liu swallowed her saliva, picked up the thickest piece, and originally wanted to put it in Ershun's bowl, but she was glared at by Wu's knife, and she hurriedly put it into Gu Xiaoshun's bowl.
Gu Xiaoshun looked at his mother with a strange expression: "What are you doing?" ”
Liu Shi sneered: "You finally come back and eat some meat!" ”
Gu Xiaoshun lived in the academy during this time, and was only invited back by Gu Dashun today.
Gu Dashun didn't want to invite him kindly, but his father couldn't help it.
Gu Xiaoshun looked at the meat in the bowl and ate it without being salty or light.
Gu Ershun was so hungry that he drooled.
Gu Dashun frowned.
The rest of the people didn't see anything.
Liu smiled: "Xiaoshun, you haven't gone to your sister's place when you came back, have you?" ”
Gu Xiaoshun asked, "What are you doing?" ”
Liu sneered: "Your sister is so good to you, why don't you go and see her when you say you're back?" ”
Gu Xiaoshun took a bite to eat: "I'll go in a while." ”
Liu continued to laugh: "Your brother-in-law has been admitted to Xiucai, you remember to say a few more words of congratulations." ”
Gu Xiaoshun: "Hmm." ”
didn't get to the point for a long time, and Wu and Dafang were in a hurry.
Gu Changhai said: "Xiao Shunna, Uncle has prepared a can of good tea and two old hens, and I will send it to your sister with you in a while." ”
Gu Xiaoshun said: "I'll just go, what are you going to do?" ”
I'm afraid you won't be able to carry it!
Gu Changhai was about to be angry with Gu Xiaoshun, Gu Xiaoshun went straight to the end, and he couldn't understand what he was saying.
Gu Changhai simply opened the skylight and said brightly: "The family has no overnight feud, we did something wrong before, and now we are not compensating your sister." From today onwards, we will live a good life as a family. ”
Gu Houye only said that they were not allowed to approach Gu Jinyu, and he did not say that they were not allowed to approach Gu Jiao, as long as they did not confide the truth to Gu Jiao.
They can probably guess what Gu Houye meant, but they are afraid that Gu Jiao will not be able to accept it for a while, so they only need to rebuild the old relationship with Gu Jiao before the father and daughter recognize each other!
"You see that my brother-in-law is now admitted to Xiucai, and you want to go and slap him, right?" Gu Xiaoshun put the chopsticks on the table lukewarmly, "Where is the thing?" ”
The first sentence makes people frown, but the latter sentence makes the Gu family feel dramatic!
Gu Changhai hurriedly said to Zhou: "Go and get it!" ”
Zhou didn't dare to slack off, and went to the house to catch the tea that he bought at a great price and the two fattest old hens in the house.
Gu Xiaoshun put down his chopsticks, took something and walked out.
Gu Changhai stretched out his hand: "Hey! Wait for me! ”
It's weird when you wait!
You owe it to my sister!
Gu Xiaoshun spread his feet and ran out, slipped into his sister's house with a smoke, and closed the door with a bang!
Gu Changhai, who was hit by the door and had a nosebleed: "......!" ”
The tea and old hens that Gu Changhai spent so much money to give up are gone, and he doesn't dare to make trouble or make noise, where can he be reasonable?
Gu Changhai wanted to knock on the door, but unfortunately no one paid attention to him after knocking for a long time, so he had to grit his teeth and go back.
Gu Jiaocai will not pay attention to the Gu family, let alone the old lady and Xiao Liulang.
If it wasn't for Gu Xiaoshun to press the door panel, the old lady could deduct a urine basin for the Gu family on the spot!
Gu Jiao cooks in the stove house.
"Sister and sister." Gu Xiaoshun didn't return to the village for a long time, and he was worried about his sister, so he first rushed to the stove house to say hello to Gu Jiao, and then went to find Xiao Liulang and the old lady.
Xiao Liulang gave him the carving knife he brought from Pingcheng, Gu Xiaoshun liked it so much that he looked at each knife and couldn't put it down.
A good sword is to a craftsman, just as a good sword is to a swordsman, and that kind of joy cannot be replaced by a general gift.
Gu Xiaoshun felt more and more that his brother-in-law was good.
Gu Xiaoshun was playing with a knife, and was suddenly called to the house by the old lady.
The old lady beckoned to him very enthusiastically: "Xiaoshun, try the candied bayberry dried that Rokuro bought for me!" ”
Gu Xiaoshun blinked: "Why is my aunt so generous today?" ”
On weekdays, it is more difficult to eat her candied fruit than to ascend to the sky.
"Give." The old lady pulled for a long time and gave him the smallest one.
Gu Xiaoshun didn't pick it, and stuffed it into his mouth.
In the next second, he saw the old lady one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, counted seven big candied bayberry dried and put them into his little honeypot, and shouted: "Jiaojiao! Xiaoshun ate my eight dried bayberry! ”
“……”
Gu Xiaoshun almost choked to death!
For a few dried bayberries, are you as good as that?!
Gu Jiao took care of the old lady, let her eat at most three pills a day, and only five pills during the New Year, and she saved seven pills in one go, which can be said to be a monstrous windfall!
The old lady was very satisfied, and waved her hand to ask Gu Xiaoshun to do what he should do.
Gu Xiaoshun looked confused, this used him up?
Gu Xiaoshun planned to find Xiao Qingkong, but found that the little guy had gone out.
The little clearance is gone to the chicks.
At first, he only slipped around his backyard, but gradually realized that the backyard was not slippery enough, so he took the chickens out.
The route of the little empty chicken is from his house to the entrance of the village, and then back the same way, if he meets the villagers, he will greet them politely.
The villagers have been surprised at the beginning and are now accustomed to it, and even began to like this little monk.
Other people's chicks run around when they go out, and his chicks can still have a formation.
"Xiao Qi, you can't cut the line." The little headroom caught the chick that had slipped to the fifth to the end.
The small clear space slipped away and came to the outside of the Gu family's old house, which was the only way to go to the entrance of the village.
He knew the relationship between the two families, and he would not go to the Gu family, nor would he greet the Gu family.
Today, however, he was drawn to a strange voice.
