Chapter 12: It's Weird

Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian just glanced at Gu Nian suspiciously, and then began to eat with vegetables.

There are only three dishes on the table, egg soup with wild vegetables, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, and soybean stew.

There is no staple food, only eggs, which were cooked by Cai Xiaolian before.

Except for Gu Xin, the other three were a little difficult to swallow.

Gu Xin peeled two eggs for himself, three for Gu Nian, four for Gu Shouxin, and three for Cai Xiaolian, and then said, "Dad, this meat was given to us by the fourth uncle before, and at that time, you were not at home." Dad, when you were cooking meat, did you boil oil? ”

She had never seen her father cook, so she didn't know if her father knew how to boil oil.

Gu Shouxin took an egg from the bowl and put it in Gu Xin's bowl, and said, "Boil it, put it in the oil can." What are you doing? It's enough for dad to eat three, let's eat everything at home in the future, don't say you're small, you can't eat, you're growing your body, you can't stop eating! ”

Shelled eggs are still very easy to clip.

Gu Xin didn't push, she liked such a father: "Thank you, Dad!" ”

If Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian weren't really hungry, they really wouldn't have been able to eat such a meal.

As soon as he finished eating, Gu En from the big house on the other side of the old mansion came over again: "Second uncle, grandma asked you to come over." ”

"Oh, got it." Gu Shouxin got up calmly and told Gu Xin to put the bowl away, and he came back to wash it in a while and left.

As soon as Gu Shouxin left, there were only three mothers left in the kitchen.

Because she was afraid that Gu Nian would see something different, Cai Xiaolian didn't speak, and at the same time, she also felt that Gu Nian was a little different from the original owner's memory, of course, it was not ruled out that she had broken her head just now.

Gu Nian felt the same way as Cai Xiaolian, so neither of them spoke much.

"Mother, sister, you just hit your head, you must be uncomfortable! Go and rest. I quietly went to my grandparents' to have a look, and I wondered if my grandmother would beat my father again. If I beat him hard, I'll help my dad speak. Dad just said that he won't gamble anymore. Gu Xin didn't notice that Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian were worried at all.

"Oh." Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian replied in unison, and then went back to the room.

Gu Xin didn't notice anything abnormal, took advantage of the warm hot water in the pot, washed the dishes, and then went out with a small backpack.

It's winter now, and her daily task is to go to the mountains to carry firewood, firewood for the fire, like yellow fallen leaves, and some dry branches.

She planned to go to the old house first, if her grandmother wanted to beat her father, she would go to intercede first, if not, she would go to the back mountain to carry the firewood back.

Their family was already at the foot of the mountain, not far from the old house, but it was still some distance away from the rest of the village, so they didn't meet anyone along the way.

When she was about to walk to the old mansion, Gu Xin met Gu Hui, the cousin of the big house, and greeted her: "Erya, what are you doing?" ”

Gu Xin asked, "Sister Huihui, did grandma beat my father?" ”

Gu Hui said with a look of surprise: "No, it's really weird, obviously grandma and everyone have found out, but as soon as the second uncle said a few words, grandma stopped breathing, and called the second uncle to go to the house to talk." ”

Gu Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." Dad must have promised my grandparents not to gamble, so I don't have to help. Sister Huihui, I'll go carry some leaves and dry firewood, do you want to go to the back mountain? ”
