Chapter Twenty-Three: How Is He?

Gu Ruochen had a layer of sugar on the side of his mouth, and he was holding a sugar gourd in his hand, twisting uncomfortably in Li's hand.

The angry Li pulled him to stand up, and she almost snatched the sugar gourd from his hand: "Aren't you wasting money?" Why don't you buy this stuff for the kids to eat? ”

There are still four children in the family, and there are girls as big as Gu Ruotong, so I really don't know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive.

Li Shi thought that this was a little dissatisfied with Su Xiaomu again.

"Didn't Ruochuan bring them candy when he said it was fair when he went out? I guessed that Xiang Gong must also love to eat like this, and I specially wrapped one for him so that Xiang Gong could come back to relieve his hunger. ”

Su Xiaomu said with a smile.

She ate by herself and came back after eating on the way.

"Okay, but don't waste your money on these snacks next time."

Since the third child also has a share, she can't say anything.

The matter of the sugar gourd was solved, and the Li family wanted to tell Su Xiaomu that the third child had returned, but before he could speak, Gu Ruochen suddenly turned his head and looked behind Su Xiaomu with a happy face and said, "Third uncle, let's eat the sugar gourd together!" ”

"Third uncle?"

Su Xiaomu was stunned!

Is her cheap husband back?

Forehead......

Then I looked up and saw an unexpected face appear in front of me.

After she saw it clearly, she really felt that it was a thunderbolt on the head, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water from head to toe, and her whole body was numb.

"How could it be ......?"

You......

The last word was forced into her throat, she looked at Zhou Lin's "classmate" in front of her, and couldn't say a word behind it.

And Gu Jingcheng was also surprised at this time and didn't know how to speak.

A slight crack appeared on his usually cold face, and just now he felt that the female voice talking outside was a little familiar, so he went out of the house to see who it was.

He didn't expect that the proprietress who sold cakes in the city was actually his "child daughter-in-law" who bought Chongxi.

So the two of them have already met?

The two of them froze in place for a moment.

"Jingcheng, your daughter-in-law, that is, Xiaomu, was just sick a few days ago, no, I just took Ruotong up the mountain to dig wild vegetables."

As soon as Li saw her baby son come out, her face was immediately beaming, she pulled Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng to get together, and kept giving Su Xiaomu a look and telling her to speak.

"Xianggong...... Xianggong ......"

Su Xiaomu was so embarrassed that she was about to snap her toes to the ground at this moment, let alone talking to Gu Jingcheng, she didn't even want to look up at him.

Damn it, she should have been vigilant when she knew that he was a student of the academy, she had a daughter-in-law at home, and she was poor and needed to copy books by herself to supplement the family's ......

She scolded herself for being stupid in her heart, and at the same time made a shy look on her face.

Lowering her head and wringing her fingers, and biting her lip from time to time, although she can't see her specific appearance now, she can imagine that she must be very contrived.

Sure enough, Yin Shi also came over when she heard that there was movement here, and when she saw Su Xiaomu showing a shy look, she immediately smiled and quipped.

"Otherwise, Xiaomu has a thin skin, he always asks us about the third uncle on weekdays, but now that the main owner is back, he is embarrassed to look up and talk."

She pushed Su Xiaomu to Gu Jingcheng's side, and she couldn't hold back her smiling teeth.

"It is said that Xiao Bei is better than a newlywed, and you are also a newlywed couple, and you are better emotionally."

"Sister-in-law, don't ......"

Gu Jingcheng frowned, he quietly moved a step to the side, keeping a certain distance from Su Xiaomu.

But before he could finish speaking, Chen didn't know where to come over: "Look at the third uncle like this, it's obviously embarrassing, I think my mother married him the right daughter-in-law, the third uncle can't only study a day, there has to be a woman by his side, so he can take care of people." ”

Chen's, Chen's...... You really can talk, you really know the art of speaking.

Su Xiaomu complained in her heart, and at the same time, she had to maintain her false shyness on her face.

"Well, that's what the second sister-in-law said."

Although the two of them were only a few steps apart, they were both eager to leave immediately.

Gu Jingcheng was very unnatural in this woman's pile, he was about to find an excuse to leave, Li suddenly said: "In this way, you two go and cook the meat that Xiaomu bought, let's have a good meal today." ”

"How can you trouble the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law?"

Su Xiaomu said with a smile, "Xianggong finally came back once, of course, I have to let Xianggong see my cooking skills, otherwise I will be really sad in my heart." ”

"......"

Li was a little hesitant, she still wanted the two of them to stay together and cultivate their relationship.

She kept glancing at Su Xiaomu's belly from time to time, and she was still thinking that she could give birth to a big fat boy for Gu Jingcheng and add a piece to the family.

Lee hesitated.

Yin looked at Su Xiaomu's flushed face, probably knowing that she was getting more and more embarrassed.

helped beside him, "Mother, Xiaomu's cooking is indeed better than what my second brother and sister make, and it is rare for my brother-in-law to come back once, and it is reasonable for her to want her brother-in-law to taste her craftsmanship." ”

"Besides, the third uncle has just come back, and he still has something to pack, maybe he needs to read more books, so let's not bother him."

"Okay."

Li Shi remembered at this time, Gu Jingcheng's things really hadn't been packed yet, and she had to find him a thicker quilt to cover it.

The set that was given to Su Xiaomu before, now she wants to sleep alone, and two people can't cover it.

And Su Xiaomu was even more relieved when she got the permission of the Li family, she didn't even bother to say hello to Gu Jingcheng, and took Yin's hand and went to the kitchen.

Everyone left, and the Chen family didn't dare to talk to Gu Jingcheng alone, so she pulled Gu Ruochen to wash her face.

Only Gu Jingcheng was still standing in place.

Squinted his eyes and looked at the back of Su Xiaomu leaving.

She lowered her eyebrows in front of her mother, where was she really aggressive with herself that day.

The gentleness of a small family jasper, a spicy and unforgiving market state, so which one is the real her?

Sure enough, this woman is tricky and eccentric, and she is a person who is good at disguise!

And in the kitchen, Su Xiaomu has already thought about making noodles.

The Gu family can eat spicy, and there are many people who eat, cooking porridge and consuming rice is not as refreshing as noodles.

Su Xiaomu kneading the dough and whispering to the Yin family.

"I saw Xianggong from afar when I was out of school at the academy before, but I didn't know it was him at that time, so I didn't pay attention to it.

Now that I think about it, I don't know if he saw me, otherwise I wouldn't be very happy if I knew that we were selling cakes near the academy. ”

Some things still need to be vaccinated in advance!
