Chapter 207: The Mystery of Gu Xia's Background
"Old Mother Zhu, where did you pick me up in the first place, how can a person like you have the kind heart to pick up the child and come back?" Gu Xia had never figured out that Zhu Po would pick up the child and come back to feed it, just thinking about it felt incredible.
Zhu Po didn't know how to answer this question for a while. Old man Gu answered on the side, "You're right, she didn't have such a good heart." It's not the woman who hugged you at the beginning who said to adopt you and give you a gold ingot. She adopted you for the gold ingots.
At that time, when she got this gold ingot, she didn't want to adopt you, and wanted to throw you to the back mountain, and then an old doctor begging for water said that you are blessed, and if you feed you, you can bring a male baby.
That's why I left you behind, and it didn't take long for me to really get pregnant with a boy. We think you're a girl anyway, and when you're a few years old, you can work for the family, and you can sell it for a good price when you're raised. ”
Gu Xia and his wife listened to the old man's words, and forcibly suppressed their anger, if it weren't for the old Taoist, the baby's Gu Xia would have been thrown to the back mountain and eaten by wild beasts.
"What a good thing is you old man, at that time, I turned out a jade pendant on Xiao Xia's body. You carried me to the city and made a lot of money. I didn't even see a copper plate. Later, I found out that you used the money to drink flower wine. stayed in the Qinglou for more than ten days in a row, and became a groom every night. The silver flower in his hand didn't go home. Zhu Po was angry when she thought of this.
Old man Gu knew that he was at a loss, but he didn't squeak.
"What does the jade pendant look like? In which pawnshop did you get the money? Gu Xia hurriedly asked.
If she can find the jade pendant, she will be able to prove her identity even more.
"It's been more than ten years, and I can't remember it anymore." Old man Gu pouted.
"Xiaxia, don't worry, there are other ways to prove your identity." Jiang Yi saw that she was a little emotional, and grabbed her wrist.
Gu Xia also knew that this matter was in a hurry, it had been more than ten years, even if he knew which pawnshop it was, Yu Pei was afraid that he would not be able to find it.
"The prime minister has finished asking all the questions, let's go home." Gu Xia was upset when he looked at the two elders.
As soon as Mother Zhu heard Gu Xia's words, she was anxious and hurriedly stopped the couple on their way: "No, I haven't paid the eight cents yet." ”
"If you change your mind, I won't give you this eight pennies if I throw them in the water." Gu Xia replied coldly.
The two elders also took a lot of money when they adopted her, but they still had to throw her back into the mountain, and it was not good for the original owner at all, and they also took her as a jade pendant. It's hateful.
"How can you talk and not count? Then you give me back the things, you can't take this belly pocket and purse with you. "Zhu Po went crazy and wanted to snatch the things in Gu Xia's hand.
Jiang Yi doesn't beat women, but Zhu Po is really hateful, he can only kick her down with one kick and pull Gu Xia out.
Old man Gu didn't dare to step forward to stop the couple, and he turned a blind eye to Zhu Po, who kicked to the ground, and didn't plan to help her up.
Jiang Yi drove the carriage, and Gu Xia sat quietly in the carriage, holding the small belly pocket she was wearing when she was born, as well as her purse.
The purse in her hand is likely to be embroidered by her mother, who is not proficient in female red, but it is the most precious thing for her.
It was already evening when he returned home, and Gu Xia locked himself in the room again with the things in his hand.
Jiang Yi didn't bother her this time, giving her time to digest her emotions.
Mother Jiang didn't know why she was in a hurry, she didn't rush in to find Gu Xia, she pulled Jiang Yi aside and asked angrily, "Yi'er, did you make Xiao Xia angry?" Didn't my mother tell you that there is no quarrel between husband and wife, and you have to apologize first every time. Whether you did it wrong or not, Xiao Xia is so capable when she marries into our family, and she has paid so much to our family. We can't be without conscience, and we can't wronged others. You have to learn to coax your own daughter-in-law. ”
Jiang Yi had a big head, and before he could speak, he was lectured by his mother. The most painful thing in this family is his daughter-in-law.
"Mother, my husband and wife didn't quarrel, Xia Xia was in a bad mood and locked herself in the room. That's all because she came back from the Gu family and got back the small belly pocket she wore when she was born, as well as her purse. Xia Xia is thinking about her life experience......"
Mother Jiang listened to her son's explanation, and felt more and more sorry for her daughter-in-law. "Xiao Xia has a rough life, and her adoptive parents treat her badly. Yi'er, you have to cherish Xiaoxia more in the future. Accompany her more in the past few days, and if you have the opportunity, you must help her find her biological father. ”
Mother Jiang couldn't understand how Xiao Xia could have such a ruthless father and mother with such a good girl?
She wants to give birth to a girl, but she can't give birth yet. Fortunately, Xiao Xia married into her family, which can be regarded as fulfilling her dream of having a daughter.
The dinner was made by Jiang's mother, Jiang Yi started, no matter how bad Jiang's mother's cooking skills were, she was better than Jiang Yi. Jiang's mother cooked millet porridge, made a cold lotus root slices, and home-made bean curd, and boiled a few eggs, one for each person.
She will also make this, and if she stir-fries, it is either salty or light, and she can't eat it at all.
"My son's mother has put all the porridge and cooled it, you go and call Xiao Xia to come over and eat a little, how can you be hungry? Xiao Xia was already thin. Mother Jiang brought Gu Xia's pickled crispy radish to the table.
Jiang Yi knocked on the door and entered the house, "Xia Xianiang has finished all the meals, and asked me to call you over to eat, if you don't want to eat, then I won't eat either, and I will starve with my daughter-in-law." ”
"Who said I wouldn't eat it." Gu Xia took Jiang Yi's wrist and went out of the house, and the couple sat at the dining table together, and the two small ones moved their chopsticks.
"Sister-in-law, I peeled eggs for you, eggs are nutritious, and you can grow taller if you eat them." Bai Bao said as he put the peeled eggs in his sister-in-law's bowl.
Rainbow Dash always follows his brother, and when he sees him doing this, he puts the peeled eggs in his sister-in-law's bowl.
Jiang Yi's face darkened, the job of peeling eggs for his daughter-in-law has always been his, and he was grabbed by two small ones tonight, in order to show that he is the best person to treat his daughter-in-law, he peeled two eggs in a row and put them in his daughter-in-law's bowl.
Gu Xia looked down and could see the four white and chubby eggs in the porridge bowl, and his heart was warm. Or give each of the two small ones an egg and put it in the bowl, "There are so many eggs, I can't eat them." It's still the two of you who eat small, sister-in-law doesn't have to grow taller anymore, but you have to eat more balls, and you will grow as tall as your eldest brother in the future. ”
Two small ones heard the words, and they ate an egg in a few big bites.
"Xiaoxia, you also know that your mother's cooking skills are not good, and you can't cook anything, so you got some millet porridge, and you will eat this meal." Jiang Mu said embarrassedly.
"The porridge cooked by my mother is exactly what I want, and I want to eat some soup and water tonight. Mother, I also love to eat this cold lotus root. Gu Xia took a small sip of porridge.
