Gu Mai said with a smile. "Okay, I'll see my grandmother again in a few days and talk to her." This lie made her tell it, and she herself thought that such an old lady existed.

……

Zhao Xiaoli caught the chicken, so she killed it too.

Gu Mai stabbed his father and urged in a low voice. "Dad, why don't you behave well and help my mother kill a chicken?"

Gu Mingkun was chopping wood on the side. "I kill the chicken and give it to the man? I'm crazy, me! ”

Gu Mai said jokingly. "It's not just Uncle Huang who eats, you can also borrow some to eat, you are here, can my mother give you food?"

"Lao Tzu borrowed this light?" Gu Mingkun said angrily.

Gu Mai's little face fell. "You're not right to talk like that, are you? Can you eat chicken at home? Last time you killed chickens, my grandmother didn't give me food. Now there is chicken to eat, you are still unwilling, what are you not willing to do. ”

Gu Mingkun was speechless with guilt. “……”

"Anyway, it's not easy for my mother, don't want to destroy my mother." Gu Mai said warned.

Gu Mingkun lowered his head and walked towards Zhao Xiaoli silently. "Give me the knife, I'll kill it."

"......" Zhao Xiaoli did not fight.

After all, Gu Mingkun is a person who has experienced the war and tempered it, and the method of killing chickens is very skillful, and with a wipe of the neck, the blood of the big rooster spurted out, and it didn't take long for him to die.

Then he threw the chicken to the ground, and went to press the well water to boil the water to reduce the feathers.

Gu Mai said on the side. "Mother, chicken feathers can't be thrown, stay to make chicken feather quilts or down padded jackets!"

"This chicken feather pole is warped, and it can't make quilts and clothes, but if it's duck and goose down, it's okay." Zhao Xiaoli said.

"Mother, it's okay, we have a way, we can break the chicken feathers, so that it fits."

"Broken? I haven't heard of this trick for so many years, I guess it won't work, if it does, someone has already done it. Zhao Xiaoli shook her head.

"Just keep it for now, let's try it." Gu Mai was not in a hurry to explain this matter to his mother.

Zhao Xiaoli is also obedient to her daughter. "Keep it, you have to wash it and get rid of the insects."

"I'll get it later!"

……

Huang Daxing came quite early, arrived at ten o'clock, and came with a noodle bag on his back, about ten catties of grain. "This is ten catties of white noodles for helping the next village spread tiles, I brought it directly to you and gave it to the child!"

Zhao Xiaoli waved her hand. "That's not good, you better take it back and give it to the child."

"My family has fine grain, and my children have something to eat."

Huang Daxing gave it sincerely, and he didn't take it back at all, and Zhao Xiaoli had no choice but to accept it, thinking that when he left, he would take something of the same kind.

Gu Mai took the initiative to talk to Huang Daxing. "Uncle Huang, good!"

"Alas......" Huang Daxing nodded excitedly, the child can call him uncle, which means that the child accepts him, if he doesn't accept it, he will definitely not call.

Gu Mingkun was on the side, his face was ugly. "Wheat, are you done? It's not like it's okay, you clean up the chicken feathers. ”

"I'll clean it up later, I don't have to wash it and dry it before I can clean it up." Gu Mai didn't seem to notice his father's angry answer.

"Then you're washing, why are you leaving it here and not washing, piling up a bunch of them?"

"I want to wash too, my mother doesn't wash vegetables and cook in the pool!" Gu Mai is wronged.
