Chapter 150: The Best Mother of the Male Protagonist (Thirty-Eight)
In the afternoon of the same day, Gu Tingcheng went to the ruined temple outside the city.
In the evening, Zhao Qingyun heard a story comparable to a book-
"A-Niang, you said that the old beggar woke up, thanked you for saving him, and specially gave you the ancestral secret recipe that he hid in the broken temple?"
Zhao Qingyun only felt that this paragraph was inexplicably familiar.
Oh, I remembered that his father used to have such an "adventure".
The two prescriptions that A-Niang used to do business with Mrs. Cui were the thank-you gifts that Daddy accidentally got for saving an old Taoist priest.
Daddy is like this, and Auntie is like this?
Could it be that there is really a good thing in this world that "good people have good rewards"?
"Not just grateful! And the old man said, "He gave me the secret recipe, and when he dies, I'm going to bury him." ”
Gu Tingcheng corrected his son's rhetoric.
Zhao Qingyun: ...... It's good, it's more human.
The grace of saving lives is too illusory, far less real than the exchange of benefits!
"I've looked at it carefully, this secret recipe is a pig-cutting technique."
Gu Tingcheng had long been thinking about how to help the original owner's mother's family.
Putting aside the grace of birth and raising, just because the Gu butcher's family has been pampering and protecting the original owner all these years, Gu Qingcheng should repay it well.
Moreover, if the Gu family is good, it can also be more helpful to the family to a certain extent.
However, the Gu family and the Zhao family are different.
The Gu family is an ancestral butcher, and their strong genes make Gu Qingcheng a little staggered-
Great-grandfather, the original owner never met.
Since my grandfather, the Gu family has been strong, powerful as an ox, fierce and domineering.
Like a born butcher.
The women of the Gu family are no exception.
The limbs are well developed, and the mind seems to be a little less bright.
The ancestral pig killing and selling business of the Gu butcher's family is much richer than that of ordinary farmers.
So, from the great-grandfather, the elders of the family wanted their children and grandchildren to study.
The male of the Gu family went to a private school to enlighten himself at the age of six.
One by one, after reading for two or three years, I don't know whether I live or die.
The small pen shaft, held in the hand, is far less convenient than the heavy pig-killing knife.
Two or three generations in a row, from generation to generation.
The Gu family also knows: yes, their own children and grandchildren (including themselves) are not the material for reading.
Let's continue to eat the bowl of rice that kills pigs.
By the time Gu Butcher's generation arrived, he had six sons.
The eldest son inherited his skill of killing pigs;
the second son raised pigs;
The third son was even more ferocious, and he actually became an executioner in the county seat where the Gu family was located;
The fourth son also killed pigs, but set up a stall in the county where the Zhao family was located.
The fifth and sixth sons also made a living related to pig killing and pig raising.
Gu Tingcheng: ...... This family is estimated to have been arched by pigs in their ancestral graves in their previous lives, and the whole family will live on pigs in this life.
Gu Qingcheng once thought that the Gu family was physically strong and had great strength, but they were good seedlings for martial arts.
happened to be his youngest son who wanted to do business, and Gu Tingcheng successfully fooled him that "if you want to do business, learn martial arts first".
Zhao Qingsong has already practiced well, and Gu Tingcheng is trying to find him a martial arts master.
When the time comes, you can choose a few nephews and nephews of the Gu family and let them learn with Zhao Qingsong.
In addition, Gu Tingcheng also wanted to give his brothers one more craft - plowing pigs.
The original owner is also the daughter of a butcher, even if she is pampered, she is exposed to it all day long, and she also knows some skills in raising and killing pigs.
Through the memory of the original owner, Gu Qingcheng knew that in this time and space, pigs had not been cut.
It is not fat enough, it is not easy to keep in captivity, and the meat still has a smell.
Give the pig a chance to lay eggs, and this problem will be solved satisfactorily.
Plowing pigs is also a technique.
If the Gu family masters it, it can be passed on.
Although children and grandchildren cannot guarantee great wealth, they will always have a bowl of rice to eat.
Pruning a pig or something, to put it bluntly, is a simple surgical operation.
Coincidentally, in the last mission world, Gu Tingcheng extracted Western medical technology from the Republic of China era.
Give Pig Ga Balls, it's totally OK!
Just when Gu Tingcheng was looking for a suitable "excuse", the old beggar bumped into him.
When he saw the unconscious and dying old man who fell to the ground, Gu Qingcheng had a plan in his heart.
As a result, this "secret recipe" has a reasonable source.
"Da Lang, your grandfather and uncles are all doing pig raising and killing pigs for a living. This recipe is very suitable for them. ”
Gu Qingcheng said to Zhao Qingyun with a reasonable tone, "I'll give them the secret recipe." ”
If it is a different personality, such as a good wife and a good mother or something, Gu Tingcheng is estimated to have a tone of discussion.
This is the sorrow of being a woman in a patriarchal society-
It's obviously something I got by myself, and I want to give it to my biological parents, but I have to take care of my in-laws.
Because in the eyes of men, if a woman marries into her in-law's family, she is a member of her in-law's family.
She herself belongs to her in-laws, and her money, her craftsmanship, etc., should also belong to her in-laws.
If it is to subsidize the mother's family, it is to eat inside and outside, and it is not virtuous.
Slowly, in the more stringent ancient times, even in later generations, there are still a considerable number of women who still can't feed their biological parents in a bright way.
Gu Tingcheng is an ancient native, but she has not been brainwashed by patriarchal thoughts, and the world she lives in is a fierce era when a woman can say the words "everyone is as good as she can".
However, she knows that men and women think differently.
Especially after getting married, her assistant husband sat on the throne and became a relative of her family.
Her in-laws and mother's family are no longer just a simple in-law relationship, but a struggle for the rights of imperial power and relatives.
Her son, while relying on foreign families, is also jealous and guarded.
The butt determines the head, and the origin determines the attitude.
Gu Tingcheng has a deep understanding.
After coming to this mission world, Gu Tingcheng followed the character design, but he did not rely on "naivety" and "confusion" to deliberately get close to his mother's family.
Because she is not really the best, she will only be "the best" when she meets the right time according to her son's needs.
The ultimate goal is to make his son a powerful minister who stands in a high position!
There is no way, this task is not to struggle by yourself, but to be a silk flower that always relies on others!
regarded herself as the wife of the Zhao family, not the daughter of the Gu family, so that her words and deeds with her son were not attacked at all.
Gu Tingcheng kept this criterion in mind, and then in some details, he was "willful" one or two.
Sure enough, hearing Gu Chengcheng say this, Zhao Qingyun couldn't help but nodded, "Since the wai Weng and his uncles can use it, they should be given to them." ”
"Moreover, over the years, my grandfather has been kind and my uncle has loved us, and our family has been sheltered and should be reciprocated."
In the past, there were no conditions, but now that my mother accidentally got a secret recipe, it was still a craft related to killing pigs, and it should be given to the Gu family.
A-Niang is not a person who is bent on supplementing her mother's family, the people in the Zhao family's old house are so hateful, A-Niang still regards them as her own people.
This, in addition to A-Niang's naivety, also regarded herself as the Zhao family from the bottom of her heart.
Love the house and the black, but that's it!
A-Niang treats their father and son sincerely, and Zhao Qingyun will also look at A-Niang's face and treat the Gu family well.
……
Two days later, the old beggar died, and he was not awake again before he died.
Gu Qingcheng bought him a thin-skinned coffin and dragged it to the wasteland outside the city to bury it.
The whole thing was done almost perfectly, leaving no talk in the slightest.
In the county, even everyone is saying: Gu Niangzi of the Zhao family is a good person who does good deeds and accumulates virtues.
was falsely accused for no reason, and she was willing to contribute money and efforts to help those who harmed her.
The Holy Mother who repays grievances with virtue is probably like this.
Of course, there are also a few people who say "good person" in their mouths, but in their hearts they are scolding her for being stupid and an incomprehensible idiot.
For example, Wan Niangzi and Zheng Wanjun's mother and daughter next door.
Zheng Wanjun began to re-examine Zhao Qingyun to gauge whether he was a potential stock or a junk stock.
Confused mother-in-law, husband of eccentric mother-in-law...... No matter how you look at it, it looks like a big pit.
"Forget it! It's better to rely on others than on yourself! ”
"If you can't find good seedlings for the time being, then you want to make yourself 'strong'!"
She didn't want to be locked up in the courtyard all the time, and she didn't want to learn the rules from that grandma from the capital.
She wants to show her parents what she can do and tell them: Your daughter is not an ordinary woman, and it is a great loss for her to be trapped in the inner courtyard according to the rules!
Glass?
Alcohol?
Zheng Wanjun knows the formula and the process flow, but she is only talking on paper and has never tried it herself.
If you want to succeed, you need a skilled craftsman to do it through trial and error.
Zheng Wanjun is only seven years old, she can't even go out of the house, and there are no errands around her, so there are no conditions for experimenting at all.
"Let's do movable type printing."
Zheng Wanjun thought about it for a few days and finally decided on a goal.
Ji Xiaosi at the corner of the street, who is now working as an apprentice in the bookstore to print books, has begun to learn engraving.
Occasionally, there are broken engravings, and he is also responsible for disposing of them.
Zheng Wanjun's scope of activity is the backstreet of the academy, and she still has the opportunity to contact Ji Xiaosi.
In the evening of that day, Ji Xiaosi came out of the bookstore with a broken board in his hand.
After a day's work, he was so tired that his back hurt, but there was a fire burning in his heart.
"Da Lang, what do you read these words?"
Ji Xiaosi found Zhao Qingyun familiarly and asked for advice with the engraving.
"Oh, this is a Buddhist scripture......"
Zhao Qingyun did not dislike Ji Xiaosi's ink, nor did he think highly of himself and was arrogant and arrogant just because he had read a book.
He explained very patiently, and also explained this sentence to Ji Xiaosi word by word.
Ji Xiaosi listened very seriously, his fingers full of oil, and he kept gesturing in mid-air.
“…… Our bookstore is going to print a new set of books, and when it is finished, I will secretly give you a copy, and you can copy it, and I will return it, so that you can save money to buy books. ”
Ji Xiaosi will not just say thank you verbally, but try to "return the gift".
"No, it's not right to steal. If you are found by the shopkeeper or the master, you will be punished. ”
Zhao Qingyun didn't accept it, he didn't lack the money to sell books.
Even if you lack money, you will never be contaminated with the word "stealing".
