Chapter Twenty-Seven: Gu Wan
Gu Chengyu immediately came back to his senses when he saw this, and almost forgot that he was still a little baby now! Then try to pretend to be innocent as much as possible, and push Lu's hand to her own mouth, "Mother eat!" My mother likes to eat, but Xiaobao doesn't like to eat. β
Lu Shi took another serious look, and saw that his youngest son was still so innocent and cute, just when she was dazzled, who is this not her little treasure? Later, when I heard these words, I was moved and relieved.
"My mother doesn't like to eat this! This is what the little baby eats, good. β
"If my mother doesn't eat it, I won't eat it either."
In the end, under Gu Chengyu's "threat", Gu's mother had to take a piece and break half of it and taste it.
"I'll eat half of it, save this for next time, it's going to be dinner soon, you can't eat more, keep this half for you to eat tomorrow when you're hungry." After eating hastily, he rewrapped the remaining half and put it in the small kang qin.
At this moment, Gu Chengyu clenched his fists and secretly decided that he must make a fortune, let his mother live a good life, and let his mother eat as much as she wants in the future. Ahh He wanted his mother to taste all the delicacies and wear all the silk and satin.
He is now five years old, and the matter of making money should be put on the agenda as soon as possible, and it is better to use less of the things in the space, and getting rich overnight is not conducive to the long-term development of the Gu family, and it is not safe. You still have to think of a small business first, and then slowly grow bigger when you have the strength.
"Mother, is the third brother back? I'm starving. Gu Chengyu was secretly swearing when he was interrupted by a voice.
A girl came in from outside the house, shouting, while running to the kang table to pick up the sea bowl on the table, "Gu Dong", "Gu Dong" drank the cold water in the bowl.
"Oops! Slow down! It's a nine-year-old girl, why haven't you done it yet? Look at you, is there a girl like that? Lu Shi looked at Gu Wan who rushed in from outside the door, frowned, and scolded.
"Mother, since you have a little brother, you don't like me anymore, you know how to talk about me." Gu Wan pursed her lips, put down the sea bowl in her hand, and threw herself into Lu's arms to sprinkle Jiao.
"You! It's all big girls who are going to say goodbye in two years. You see, you are called to learn embroidery from your mother at home, but you refuse. Mother's embroidery is not good, but it can be regarded as handy. If you learn it, you can be regarded as having a skill, and when you go to your husband's house in the future, it can be regarded as the capital for you to settle down. Your second sister-in-law is red-eyed! Lu Shi nodded at Gu Wan's forehead and said helplessly.
"Mother, I didn't say I wouldn't learn, didn't I think I would learn slowly? What's the hurry? Gu Wan had a headache when she thought of learning embroidery, who wants to sit there all day and thread the needle? She hasn't even learned the most basic sewing now, and she repeats the stitches on a piece of cloth every day, which is so boring.
"Does the second sister want to learn embroidery? The second sister embroidered a puppy for Xiaobao, right? The second sister's embroidery must be the best-looking. Gu Chengyu saw that the Lu family couldn't persuade Gu Wan, and he also helped on the side. The girls of this dynasty still have good skills, and it is better to rely on no one than on themselves. What's more, ancient women set their marriages early, Gu Wan is nine years old this year, it is better to cultivate her temperament, it will be easier to say that she will marry in the future, there is no way, this is not modern.
"You little devil, what do you know? That puppy is difficult to embroider, you say embroidery? Gu Wan's eyes were a little fluttering, and she felt that even her little brother had started to laugh at her?
"Anyway, you are not allowed to go out tomorrow, and you are not allowed to find Chunhua to play, she has a lot of work at home, do you want to help her work when you go? Didn't you have to let her be disciplined by her mother? "The Lu family plans to detain the daughter's temperament, and run out all day long, and say that the in-laws must not be talked about by others in the future?
"Mother, I didn't look for Chunhua today, I met Liu'er of Lizheng's family on the road, and I went to play with her family for a while." Gu Wan left Lu's arms and sat on the edge of the kang, not knowing what she thought, she unconsciously pinched the corner of her clothes in her hand, looked at Lu, and stopped talking.
"Liu'er of the Lizheng family? Isn't that weird? That girl isn't very sexual, her nostrils are all on the top of her head, and she can still let you go to her house to play? Lu Shi was quite strange. Lizheng's surname is Lin, and his family is much more prosperous than her family, Lin Lizheng's eldest son Lin Wen is doing a bookkeeping in the town's restaurant, and he has a monthly income of 800 Wen every month, and the second son Lin Wu is a carpenter, a little craft, most of the villages near here are his family, and there is a little girl Lin Duo who married the Fang family who opened a small grocery store in the town.
"Mother, Liu'er's house is too big! She had several sets of muslin garments. There is also a dressing box, which must have been made for her by her second uncle, and there are several silk flowers in the box! I also saw a silver bracelet! Gu Wan talked about the clothes and jewelry that Lin Liuer showed her, and she felt envious in her heart.
"Mother, I haven't made new clothes for two years, can you make one for me?" Gu Wan looked at Lu Shi expectantly.
"You girl, you're not sensible, who in your family has made new clothes to wear? Which one is not made up and made up? Your little brother is picking up your fourth brother's old clothes to wear, the first two times the mother gritted her teeth, and the cotton cloth brought by the mother to marry back then gave you a new clothes reward, even your mother and father have not worn new ones for many years, you don't want to think about the difficulties at home, and you want to embarrass your mother and me. I don't think you should be allowed to run out all day, and from tomorrow onwards, you will stay in the house for me, and I will not be allowed to go anywhere. When Lu Shi heard Gu Wan's words, he was immediately angry, angry that she didn't do anything, and she thought about the little girl's family.
"If my mother doesn't agree, forget it, why should you be so angry? Lin Liuer showed me her bracelet, I just wanted to touch it, but she beat it, and said that our family was poor and couldn't even wear decent clothes, our family was all mud legs, and the fourth brother was a slave in her house, and said that I had never seen a silver bracelet. Am I just angry? Gu Wan's eyes were red, she touched the back of her hand, and tears were about to fall from her aggrieved eyes.
Gu Chengyu looked over with her movements, and saw that there was still some red on the back of her hand, and there were still red marks, which showed how heavy the beating was, the little girl's skin was tender, and the marks were not easy to eliminate.
Gu Chengyu's eyes darkened, and he only felt a little stuffy in his chest. "Second sister, do your hands still hurt? Xiaobao gives you a hoo-hoo. β
Gu Wan hurriedly put the back of her hand behind her back and hid it, her expression was still a little unnatural, "It's okay, it's all right, the second sister is not Xiaobao, she will cry." β
"Oops! You girl, why didn't you say it earlier? Hurry up and show my mother, this Lin Liu'er usually looks like a bad temper, why do you still beat you? Why is she? No, I have to go to her, this fight is in vain? Lu snatched Gu Wan's hand, and when he saw that there was really a red mark on it, he was distressed.
Gu Chengyu looked at Gu Wan, although she felt wronged just now, but seeing her mother's nervous appearance at this moment, her emotions were almost gone.
Gu Wan has a lively and big temperament, and she is also a pampered little girl at home. Although he was a little naΓ―ve by the Lu family, he still took care of major matters, and he rarely made trouble unreasonably, and he was quite obedient. But in the end, she's just a little girl, she will be envious, jealous, and petty, but it's not bad overall, and she takes care of his little brother.
"Mother, it's okay, the fourth brother is apprenticed with others! If you go, will the fourth brother still learn? β
The Lu family was going to get off the kang and put on shoes to reason with the Lin family, but he hesitated when he heard this. Yes, she forgot that the fourth child was still learning carpenter work with Lin Wu, the second eldest of the Lin family, and paid an apprenticeship of 500 wen at the beginning. If this goes, then Lin Lao Er can still teach the fourth child well?
After thinking about this, the Lu family looked at Gu Wan helplessly. At this moment, Gu Chengyu could understand the contradictory psychology of a mother, and the palms and backs of her hands were full of meat.
