Chapter 4 The elder sister is the treasure of the younger brother
"You said that Xinghua tricked you into having wild vegetables elsewhere and took you away?"
"That's right! That's what she said, but there are no wild vegetables there, my brother and I can't find wild vegetables, so we have to go home, who knows that I met Sister Dani again, she said you are in the mountains! ”
"Sister, don't go into the mountains, I'm afraid there will be big tigers! Woo woo, don't go! ”
The two younger brothers hugged Gu Lan and cried, and the youngest Zhu'er also hugged Gu Lan's calf.
Gu Lan's eyes were very cold, and her resentment towards the Gu family was a little more.
It's just that they want to get their property, why do you want to kill her again and again!
People don't harm me, I don't hurt people, and Gu Lan's temper is also limited.
But now, she can only suppress these thoughts in her stomach, and instead comfort her younger siblings.
"Am I not without something? Thanks to Grandpa Shao, I know the mountain road so well, don't be afraid, my sister will always be there! ”
When Gu Lan comforted a few children, she realized that it was already dark, and Old Man Shao was still standing aside.
Gu Lan apologized: "Grandpa Shao, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble." ”
Old man Shao smiled, took out a handful of herbs from the bamboo basket behind him, and handed it to Gu Lan: "This is the herb I found just now, it's not good to have a scar on the little girl's head, you go back and crush it and put it on your head, it will be fine soon." ”
He is the best person Gu Lan has ever met since he crossed over!
Gu Lan didn't know how to thank him, so she had to take her younger brothers and sisters to bow to him.
I secretly thought in my heart that I would have a better life in the future, and I would definitely repay Old Man Shao's kindness.
Old man Shao looked at the waists and heads of several children, his eyes flashed with surprise, and then he looked at Gu Lan's eyes, inexplicably a little more thoughtful.
Old Man Shao's house is also on the edge of the village, more remote than Gu Lan's house, and there is a large bamboo forest around it.
From Gu Lan's house to the west, it took half a pillar of incense to go west, and then you arrived at Old Man Shao's house.
Several of them stopped by the way, and Zhu'er wanted to help him carry the bamboo basket in order to thank Old Man Shao, but Old Man Shao smiled and did not refuse.
As soon as the bamboo basket was put on his body, he almost bent the waist of the pillar, he thought that the basket was filled with grass, who knew how heavy it was.
But he has always been strong, and he claims to be the biggest man in the family, so he gritted his teeth and carried it with all his breath.
Gu Lan couldn't see her brother's embarrassment, but it was not good for him to lose face outside, so she had to walk beside him and secretly support him with her hands, so as not to make him taller.
The brothers and sisters are all strong and care for each other, not only Gu Lan, but even Liang'er also helps her brother.
Old man Shao walked aside, and Yu Guang saw all these things.
When she arrived at Gu Lan's house, there was not even a candle at home, and when she thought of going hungry tonight, Gu Lan felt a little sorry, because she still let go of her cruel words today, and she would not let her younger brothers and sisters go hungry.
Old man Shao took the bamboo basket and peeled off the pigweed on it, revealing the true face of Lushan, only to see a few pheasants and a fluffy animal in the bamboo basket.
Gu Lan didn't recognize what it was, but she also knew that these were Old Man Shao's prey.
Old man Shao laughed, took out a pheasant, dangled it in front of them, and asked, "Do you want it?" ”
Zhu'er Liang'er looked at Gu Lan, she was carrying Zhu'er on her back, and her big black grape-like eyes seemed to shine in the moonlight.
She swallowed her saliva and didn't go directly back to Old Man Shao's question, but asked, "Grandpa Shao, what price do I need to pay?" ”
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and she still understands this truth.
He was not wrong.
Old man Shao looked at Gu Lan with satisfaction, he loved his younger brothers and sisters, and had his own principles, he was not chaotic when he encountered danger, and he knew that he would seek help from others, such a woman could bend and stretch, be brave and strategic.
"I have a grandson under my knees, do you know me?"
Gu Lan blinked, and a quiet but handsome face appeared in her mind.
Old man Shao does have a grandson, and he looks very good, but there is one thing, he is a fool, and he is still a fool who can't carry his shoulders and can't lift his hands.
I heard that he had to take care of Old Man Shao meticulously when he ate and washed his clothes.
Gu Lan was a little disappointed in her heart, probably because she understood the reason why Old Man Shao was kind to her.
But soon, she was cheered up again.
The brain quickly pondered the feasibility of this matter.
If she marries Old Man Shao's grandson, eating and living will definitely not be a problem, and a good-looking fool is like raising a younger brother, and it is nothing more than adding a pair of chopsticks to her.
It's definitely worth it.
Under the moonlight, Gu Lan's phoenix eyes smiled and groaned, she was neither humble nor arrogant, without the shyness and frustration of her daughter's family, and generously admitted: "Grandpa Shao, I know him." ”
Old man Shao just smiled and stopped talking, the transaction between the two smart people, everything was silent.
He handed the pheasant to Gu Lan and turned around to leave.
This mindless conversation made Zhu'er a little incomprehensible
Gu Lan carried the pheasant and instructed his younger brother to boil water so that he could cook rice and vegetables.
The pillar cheered, and hurriedly started a fire by the broken stove next to the door.
Liang Er is smart and sensitive, he seems to understand his sister's choice, and there is an ageless worry in his eyes.
"Sister, are you going to marry that fool from the Shao family?"
Gu Lan didn't expect him to be so smart, she laughed happily, she took her little brother's head into her arms, and comforted him: "Sister doesn't suffer, isn't that fool very good-looking?" ”
She spoke briskly, as if she had picked up some big bargain.
But Liang Er was very unhappy in her heart.
He knew that his sister had a favorite person in her heart, if it weren't for the sudden death of his father and mother, he was afraid that his sister would have already married.
How can it be reduced to the point of either marrying a widower or marrying a fool!
"Sister, it's us who dragged you down."
"You, a family doesn't speak two words, what kind of drag is this? His grandfather can hunt, and his sister will also learn to hunt when the time comes, and when she earns money, she will send you to study, you are so smart, you will definitely be able to be admitted to the top prize in the future, and become a big official, won't my sister enjoy happiness? ”
After spending some time with several children for a long time, Gu Lan also figured out their temperament and temperament.
The pillar is brave and burdened; Liang Er is scheming, smart but sensitive; Zhu'er is still too young, although she can't see her personality, but she is also a quiet and cute little baby who won't cause trouble to others.
Zhu'er boiled the water, and when he heard the conversation between Gu Lan and his younger brother, he looked nervous, and then he reacted.
"What? My sister is going to marry the fool of the Shao family? ”
"I disagree!"
"Sister is so good, that fool doesn't deserve it!"
Zhu'er's face was swollen red, and he picked up the pheasant on the ground and was about to run out.
"I'm going to give them back the chickens, and don't eat their stinky chickens! I don't want to exchange my sister for chickens! ”
