Chapter 164: Stealing

Seven or eight days have passed since he stood in the corner sneakily and eavesdropped, and the injuries on Gu's body are also healed, and Wu has not taken the initiative to send her back because he feels sorry for this mother.

The Gu family didn't have any intention of going back, but was very eager to help the Wu family.

Because the family has recruited a lot of guys, whether it is food for the sky or brocade, in fact, there is not much work that Wu really needs to do, and the general account needs to be accounted for by Wu.

But Gu couldn't read big words, and it was too unrealistic to want to help with the accounting, so Wu refused her.

But Gu still wants to find a job, in her words, "Even if it is my daughter's family, I can't eat and drink for nothing, I can help you with some things that are not too tired, so I can live with peace of mind."

Wu was a little tangled, and couldn't decide what to let her do.

In the end, Bai Peony gave her a trick - because grinding lotus root pulp needs to chop the lotus root, which is a very troublesome job, usually Da Chun Niang takes Da Tie's daughter-in-law to do it, if Gu is in a panic, he will follow to cut the lotus root.

Cutting lotus roots, washing lotus roots, no technical work, and no regulations on the necessary amount, Gu Shi can do it if he wants, go back to sleep if he doesn't want to do it, it's all up to her, it can be regarded as an easy job.

But Gu was a little unhappy at first, disgusted with Wu's practice of her, and found her such a hard job.

Later, when she saw that Wu really didn't have any other work for her to do, she was not happy to go back to sleep every day, so she still went to cut lotus roots.

I cut the lotus root for a few days, and one day, Bai Shao was painting patterns for the clothes that the embroidery girl was going to do, and Wu suddenly rushed over in a panic, "Shao'er, quickly, your grandmother cut her hand." ”

"What, seriously?" Bai Shaoleng paused, hurriedly put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, and rushed to Gu's house with Wu.

Bai Yunshi, who hadn't been out for the past few days, invited Lang Zhong very neatly, and was already bandaging Gu's, but she was still lying on the bed and screaming "ouch, ouch, ouch".

Wu Shi was really distressed when she heard this, and couldn't help wiping her tears next to her, until Lang Zhong was wrapped, Bai Chuanbai sent Lang Zhong out, and she lay next to Gu Shi and cried, "Mother, don't go to cut lotus root, what else do you need to do to live with me, if you are bored, go out for a walk, buy whatever you want, don't cut lotus root." ”

"Xiaohui...... I'll live here with you...... It's been ten days. Gu Shi opened his eyes vigorously, but did not answer Wu's words, but asked another question.

"Ah, mother, today is the ninth day, and tomorrow will be ten days, what's wrong?" Wu asked a little puzzled.

Gu Shi didn't speak, but closed his eyes, shivered fiercely, and muttered in his mouth, "Time flies so fast, it's been ten days, it's going to be ten days soon." ”

"What's wrong with ten days? Daddy wants you to go back in 10 days? Wu thought about Old Man Wu's temperament and asked speculatively.

"Nope." Gu, who had been trembling, suddenly opened his eyes and vetoed Wu's speculation, "Absolutely not, your father didn't tell me this." ”

"No, that's fine, you stay for a few more days, and I can stay here as long as you want." Wu said distressedly, "It's only been a few days since the injury on that body healed, and now it's injured again, it's really ...... Hey, mother, don't work. ”

"Okay, okay." Gu Shi listened, and nodded again and again with relief, "My hand is injured, I'm afraid I won't be able to cut the lotus root for you, but it's not a way for me to be idle......"

"If you're idle, you'll be idle, if you're really bored, I'll let Shao'er and Wei'er talk to you." Wu wiped his tears and said.

"No need, don't bother the children." Gu Shi sighed, closed his eyes, and said vaguely, "Xiaohui, I want to sleep, you don't come to see me at noon today, go to the front and get busy." ”

"Hey." Wu agreed, and when he saw that Gu was not moving, he thought that she was really asleep, so he tucked the quilt corner for her, and then called Bai Shao and Bai Wei out, and asked them to talk to Gu more, so as not to be too bored in the house alone.

"Mother, grandma is also a veteran who is used to doing work, why did he cut his hand today." Bai Shao had doubts in her heart, so she deliberately asked.

"Your grandmother has been working very neatly over the years, I haven't seen her cut her hand when I was a child, but now she may be old, and her eyes are spent, so she cut her hand. I shouldn't have let her do that work. Wu sighed and didn't think much about it.

Bai Shao and Bai Wei glanced at each other, and the two of them still felt that something was wrong, especially the words that Gu asked just now, which made them smell different.

"Grandma actually hurt her fingers, so there's no need to lie on the bed." Bai Wei pointed to it.

"I guess it's painful, she is willing to lie down." Wu touched Bai Wei and Bai Shao's heads, "It's noon, I'm going to help in the front shop, and I can come to see your grandma again when I'm done. ”

With that, he left.

After Bai Shao and Bai Wei glanced at each other, the sisters went to a room where they put sundries, stood at the door hand in hand, and all of them pricked up their ears to listen to the sound of the door of Gu's house.

About the tea time, Gu's door was pushed.

This point is noon, which is often the busiest time for food, and there is generally no one left in the back house. Even the two sisters Bai Shao and Bai Wei would go out to help serve a plate, it can be said that if Bai Shao and Bai Wei didn't deliberately stay today, there would be only Gu in the entire courtyard.

"Shao'er, Shao'er, grandma is out." As soon as Bai Wei heard the movement of the door being pushed open, he hurriedly pulled Bai Shao's arm and was about to follow.

Bai Shao shook her head, and didn't let her out, but stretched out her index finger and licked it on her tongue, and then poked a hole in the window paper with the wetness on her fingertips, and looked out from there.

"Grandma went to our house." Bai Wei also poked a hole in the gourd, and the two big eyes moved closely with Gu's movements, and when he saw Gu enter the house of Wu and Bai Chuanbai, he pulled Bai Shao's sleeve with some excitement and shouted in a low voice, "What's the matter, she went to our house, what is she going to do?" ”

"What can you do, you forgot what your grandmother said a few days ago, and you still complain that I take our family's money......" Bai Shao pouted and said, "It must have been asked from our mother." ”

Knowing that Bai Shao took the money of Bai Laosan's family, it was not strange to go to her house.

It's just that Bai Wei still doesn't understand, "Grandma has been living in our house for nine days, and she didn't go a few days ago, why did she go today...... Why, Peony. ”

"A few days ago, my grandmother's health was not very good, and my mother had to come over to see her every once in a while...... Since when my mother started to go to see my grandmother from time to time, do you remember? Bai Shao asked Bai Wei softly while staring at Gu.

"Of course I know, it's when grandma was going to cut lotus root the day before yesterday, because in the courtyard of Jinse, there is Dachun Niang to take care of it, and my mother is much more relieved, so I don't go to see grandma all the time." Bai Wei muttered for a moment, but still couldn't figure it out, why did the Gu family have to pick today.

"At first, my mother always came to see my grandmother from time to time, and my grandmother didn't dare to make any moves, so I wanted to help our mother look at the accounts, but because I couldn't read big words, I was arranged to cut lotus roots. Che Lotus is in the courtyard over there, although my mother won't go over to see her from time to time, but there is nothing in that yard. Then my grandmother's hand hurt, or when the shop was about to get busy, it seems that in the past two days, my grandmother asked Da Chun Niang a lot of things in the shop. Bai Shao opened a pair of black and white eyes and explained to Bai Wei in a low voice.

"If your hand hurts, you can go back to eat for the queen of heaven, because it is the busiest time for the shop, and it is not a big problem to cut your hands, as long as you say that you want to rest, your mother will not come over in a short time, so that she has enough time to do what she wants to do."

"Ah...... Grandma still has this heart? Bai Wei was shocked, she never thought that the old lady who had been standing behind Old Man Wu would have such a cautious idea, "If she is so smart, why doesn't she resist Grandpa?" I felt pain when I watched that kind of beating, but she was still willing to do it. ”

Bai Shao thought for a while, spread her hands and said, "It has probably become a thought, grandma thinks that this kind of life is normal, if you don't beat her...... Maybe she's not used to it. ”

It feels cheap to say this, but in fact, there really are such people.

"So, grandma is now, stealing our things?" Bai Wei remembered this matter, and hurriedly looked out through the eyes of the two holes, just to see Gu Shi holding a handful of things and quickly walking out of the house of the two sisters and returning to his own house. for a better user experience.
