Chapter 22 Foreigners
Gu Miao couldn't help but swallow her saliva and asked in surprise, "What milk powder?" Big brother, do you still buy milk powder? I heard that a pack of foreign gadgets costs more than two yuan! β
"I didn't buy it." Gu Qi explained lightly: "It was sent by the factory director. When he heard that I was going back to my hometown for the New Year, he sent two packets and asked me to bring them to Gu Yinmo to eat. β
Li Ying's face turned purple with anger, and she said angrily: "That's a rare thing, how can you eat it just after bringing it back!" β
"Okay." Chen Xingling smiled and said, "Then we won't eat it next time, and leave it to Xiaohuzi." β
Li Ying glared in disbelief: "That-"
"It turned out that the factory director specially gave it to Xiaohuzi." Chen Xingling interrupted her in a brisk tone: "Since everyone is reluctant, then give Xiaohuzi water to drink." β
Li Ying was so angry that her liver hurt, and she couldn't speak.
When Gu Miao heard this, she immediately jumped up and screamed: "How can it be done!" I've never drunk milk powder before! I'm going to drink it too! β
She is the eldest in the family, usually no matter whether it is delicious or delicious, her brothers and sisters will let her, and her mother is also the best to eat with her.
Gu Qi has always been generous to others, and said, "Go back and get some from your sister-in-law." β
Forehead?
Gu Miao rolled her eyes, pursed her lips and began to stir up trouble.
"Mom has always been in charge of everything at home. Big brother, how many good things do you bring with you? Why don't you give it to your mother? Don't turn around and have nothing left! β
Gu Qi was slightly stunned, and some couldn't react.
What does this mean?
Li Ying heard her little daughter say this, and her big fat face finally regained her smile.
"That's it! It's better for mom to take care of it for you, otherwise there will definitely be nothing left in a few days. β
Chen Xingling snickered secretly, as soon as their tails cocked, she guessed what they were going to do.
Actually, Archie didn't have much with him. The bacon was hung under the eaves, and the milk powder was only used and thrown away, and I brought it to the kitchen and put it in the cupboard when I turned around. The suitcase is too big, so it's better to leave it in our room. β
Li Ying rolled her eyes when she heard this.
With such a big suitcase, how can it be a little bacon and milk powder!
The eldest son's unit welfare is very good, he has a high position, a high salary, and is very valued by the leaders, and he will send a lot of New Year's goods every time he celebrates the New Year.
This country fisherwoman came back with Archie, not only to dominate his people, but also to take his suitcase and good things!
Without her mother-in-law to control and suppress it, she ate and drank lavishly, and ate many rare things in one meal, how could she be allowed to act so recklessly!
So, she calmly ordered: "Archie, you will move all the suitcases to my room in a while, and your daughter-in-law is not allowed to touch everything." β
"That's it!" Gu Miao hurriedly echoed: "Big brother, everything at home has to be arranged by my mother." β
Gu Qi's good-looking brows furrowed, and most of his appetite disappeared in an instant.
He slowly put down his chopsticks and asked, "What are you going to do here?" Didn't Xing'er already make it clear just now? I brought bacon and milk powder, and the rest were books and a change of clothes. She hung the bacon under the eaves and planned to put the milk powder in the kitchen. What are you doing and holding on? β
They don't come to cook, but when they eat, they are in turmoil. The wife supported her sick body to prepare a meal, but only ate a small bowl of food.
After they finished eating, they blamed their wives for using too good ingredientsβdidn't they give them all food?
It's just a little bacon and milk powder, and as for the prevention of people to such an extent, he doesn't even let go of his suitcase!
Where is the most basic trust between relatives? It's suspicious to such a point!
Li Ying saw that her son seemed to be angry, but she still didn't give up.
"Really...... Just two things? Nothing else? β
Gu Qi got up coldly, and Chen Xingling, who was on the side, followed, his eyes swept coldly towards the old mother and little sister.
"Do you want to search my luggage? Same as in the afternoon? β
After speaking, he led Chen Xingling out of the kitchen, his back was indifferent and resolute.
Xiaohuzi wiped his little mouth with his sleeve, jumped off the stool, and ran out after his parents with his feet.
Gu Miao was eating, and she didn't even let go of the last vegetable soup.
"Big brother, what's wrong? We are his relatives, of course we have to give good things to our own people! β
Gu Xuan was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and glared at her when he heard the words.
"Shut up, be careful that Big Brother is completely disappointed in you."
Gu Miao pouted: "What are you doing?" What do you mean? β
Li Ying was so angry that she slapped the table: "I can't tell the difference between my own family and people with foreign surnames!" Archie is so confused! If the good things fall into the hands of the fisherwoman in the countryside, they must be eaten and wiped clean by her! β
Gu Xuan cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks in front of her table, and her voice was cold: "Aren't you also from a foreign surname?" Our surname is 'Gu' and your surname is 'Li'. β
Li Ying: "......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At night, the cold wind howls and the chill deepens.
Chen Xingling tucked his son's big quilt and touched the wall - it was hot, and then he was relieved.
At the desk, Gu Qi was seriously drawing complex drawings with a pencil in one hand and a ruler in the other.
Chen Xingling didn't understand much, so he stared at the books on the shelves in boredom.
In addition to dictionaries and dictionaries, there are more than a dozen junior high school and high school textbooks, several world famous novels, plus dozens of excerpts from Tang and Song poems of different thicknesses, four books and five classics, and even "Zizhi Tongjian".
She chuckled.
I didn't expect the books he read to be quite miscellaneous!
She didn't know what the textbooks from decades ago were, so she curiously took down two and slowly flipped through them.
Occasionally, there are one or two sentences of notes or answers to questions in the textbook, and the handwriting is a bit like a thin gold body, handsome and elegant, and it is very attractive.
Sure enough, the words are like their people, and they can guess at a glance that it is Gu Qi's words.
"Laughing at what?" He looked up at her at some point, and asked gently.
Chen Xingling closed the book and blurted out: "It's okay, it's not difficult." β
For a modern high-achieving student who has walked through the single-plank bridge of the college entrance examination and has experienced a hundred battles, there is really nothing difficult about the text at this level, but it is just that.
Gu Qi raised her eyebrows, and her gaze fell on the math textbook in her hand.
"Really? You used to go to junior high school, right? Can you read high school textbooks? β
Chen Xingling's home is in a small fishing village by the sea in Yucheng, with only one primary school nearby. Many children did not go to school, and at a young age, they helped to go to sea to support their families.
She is lucky, because she is the eldest in the family and the only female doll, so her parents love her like a treasure.
Her parents and brother were reluctant to let her be a little illiterate, so they saved money to send her to school.
Unexpectedly, she was a scumbag, and she finally insisted on not wanting to study until she graduated from elementary school.
At that time, the fourth brother, who happened to be a seaman, came home and repeated that it was important to read and write, so that the younger sister had to learn for a few more years.
Later, she was sent to the county middle school by her brothers to study in junior high school, leaving early and returning late every day, and her brothers at home took turns to pick up and drop off.
Although his academic performance was very scummy, and he stumbled several times to take the make-up exam, he finally successfully obtained his junior high school graduation certificate and became the only "high-achieving student" in his family who graduated from junior high school.
Chen Xingling snorted, and the lie came to him.
"In the past few years, after doing housework at night, I will pass the time with your book, and if I don't understand, I will look up the dictionary or other books. I think~~ You may not be able to use it if you learn it, but it doesn't hurt to learn more, right? β
