"Huh?! Is that ......."

Gu Xiaoxiao glanced at it, it was really.

There was a bruise on the elbow and under the wrist, which must have been scratched when sliding down the slope.

"Minor problem."

I rinsed it with water, rinsed off the pebbles and mud, and started cooking.

After a while, the smell of rice wafted through the air.

Wang Xiulian, who was busy cutting clothes in the house, suddenly raised her head and ran to the stove room in a panic, with a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

"Mother-in-law! I'm busy in the house, I don't mean not to cook, I'm ...... Shall I do something? ”

Gu Xiaoxiao put the lid on the pot, and then smiled and waved her hand.

"I know you're busy, it's just cooking, it's not a big deal, don't make a fuss."

Seeing that her mother-in-law was not angry, Wang Xiulian breathed a sigh of relief, and then laughed again, "I cut the cloth with peach blossoms for you, you must be very beautiful to wear." ”

"Yes! Then I'll have to look forward to it. ”

Gu Xiaoxiao echoed.

Lin Erbao, who was sitting in front of the stove and burning the fire, looked at this scene, and his heart was inexplicably sour.

Whether it is with the head of the family, or the neighbors, she can smile.

But why when facing him, I can always feel a sense of tension.

Could it be that he looks too fierce?

Lin Erbao groped for the facial features on his face, he had observed his appearance through the water before.

Although it is not peach-faced, red lips and white teeth, it also inherits the advantages of his father and mother.

He has a pair of peach blossom eyes, a straight nose, thin lips like dragonfly wings, a round chin with a little point, and a full heavenly court.

With such a look, it can't be fierce!

So, what went wrong?

"Tsk."

The two people next to them were chatting happily, and when they heard this impatient "tsk", the sound suddenly stopped.

The two pairs of eyes looked over, and Lin Erbao walked out of his own world and reacted slowly.

"Ah...... No. ”

Lin Erbao wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to explain, so he simply threw down a sentence, "You continue to talk." And he went out.

Gu Xiaoxiao stared at Lin Erbao's back and sighed faintly.

The mind of the little villain is not ordinary and difficult to figure out!

Wang Xiulian was a little frightened, "What did the daughter-in-law say just now that made the little uncle unhappy?" Shall I apologize to him......"

"I don't think so."

Gu Xiaoxiao didn't take it seriously, "It's all my own family, and there will inevitably be friction between them, Erbao is a person with a wide heart, so he shouldn't go to his heart." ”

The mother-in-law said so, and Wang Xiulian also subconsciously skipped this matter.

At night, the breeze is not dry.

There were bursts of incense in the pot, with a faint burnt fragrance, and Gu Xiaoxiao realized that it was almost there.

The lid of the pot was lifted, and it was covered with dried green beans, fried carrots with pork belly, and shiny white rice underneath.

She wielded a spatula, scooped up the pot at the bottom of the pot, pounded it into pieces, and then stirred the rice, vegetables, and pots together, the white rice was soaked in oil, and the gold was shining, and it looked very tempting!

Each large bowl is filled with a tip, and the rest is scooped into a porcelain bowl, and there is still a large bowl.

The tables, chairs and benches in the courtyard have been set up, and a few little ones are sitting obediently.

As soon as the bibimbap was served, he didn't have to wait for Gu Xiaoxiao to give orders, so he buried his head in squeaking and eating.

There were too many mosquitoes in summer, and Gu Xiaoxiao was so bitten that she couldn't sit still, so she could only eat while holding a bowl while walking around the yard.

Insist that as long as you go fast, mosquitoes won't be able to bite her!

A few guys around the table were also bitten by mosquitoes and couldn't sit still, so they followed behind their own mother's buttocks and acted as little tails.

Lin Erbao originally didn't want to do such a stupid thing, but seeing that everyone in the family was doing it, he didn't seem to be a little unsociable.

So he silently picked up the bowl and followed last.

Aunt Ma on the other side of the courtyard wall poked her head and wanted to discuss something with Gu Xiaoxiao, but when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you guys doing?!"

Gu Xiaoxiao grabbed several bags that were bitten out on the back of her hand, and complained a little boredly: "There are too many mosquitoes, I can't sit still at all when I eat, and I can be noisy when I sleep at night." ”

"It's not easy! You wait! ”

After Aunt Ma finished speaking, she disappeared over there.

After less than a minute, he walked into the courtyard of the Lin family with a handful of wormwood, put the wormwood into the stove hole where there were still some sparks and lit it.

A little white smoke rose up, and Aunt Ma waved it in the air like a dancing god, smoking every corner of the Lin family's house.

The last bit of scum was thrown into the corner of the bedroom, and the door was closed.

Aunt Ma patted the ash on her hands, "So that there will be no mosquitoes when we sleep at night, our family will do this every night, and we can sleep soundly at night." ”

Gu Nuan patted his thigh and suddenly realized.

She originally wanted to buy mosquito cigarette incense in the online supermarket, but wormwood obviously has to work well, and it is not harmful.

Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh: "Learn to be old, live to be old......"

Aunt Ma was amused, "Look at your stupidity." ”

Suddenly remembered what she was about to say, leaned closer and whispered: "Isn't Ming'er's court coming to collect grain tax......

Gu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and quietly pulled back the distance.

"yes, what's wrong?"

"I've heard that a lot of people in the village are planning to pay tomorrow. This imperial court has raised the grain tax, and it stands to reason that the silver will also rise! But Li Zheng didn't notify him at all, so everyone was speculating that the silver might not have risen, and they all wanted to try it, but I felt that this method would definitely not work...... Are you going to pay the money, or the grain? ”

When she said these words, Aunt Ma's voice was lowered.

Gu Xiaoxiao's face showed bitterness, "Pay the grain, our family's harvest this year is not good, all the new grain collected has to be used to pay taxes, I am afraid that this year's winter will be difficult...... Alas. ”

Aunt Ma also sighed, "No, it's been a really hard time, this food can't keep up, my children haven't grown tall in the past two years, it's sad!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a shout came from the courtyard next door.

Aunt Ma raised her neck and replied, turned her head to Gu Xiaoxiao and said, "My boss told me to go back, I'll go first!" Ming'er, let's go to the ancestral hall together, you wait for me, don't go first. ”

"Got it."

Gu Xiaoxiao closed the courtyard door, and in the stove room was the movement of Wang Xiulian tinkling and washing dishes.

Lin Sanbao was cleaning the yard with a broom, and Lin Erbao was picking up the firewood he had chopped in the afternoon.

Lin Sibao was reading with a lamp in the room, and Lin Xiaoxi was cleaning up the dried vegetables to dry......
