Gu Xiaoxiao's heart was a little mixed for a while.

took the little girl's hand and walked to the bottom of the eaves.

She raised her hand to the dim sky, and every now and then a sparrow or two flew through the air.

"When the birds grow up, they have to leave the nest and build a new nest outside. Xiaobao, you are still young, and it is normal that you don't want to leave your familiar place and adapt to an unfamiliar environment. ”

"But you and your brothers, like the birds in the sky, will one day leave this place, leave my side, and find a piece of your own world."

"And what I'm going to do now is to raise you all to adulthood. Let Xiaobao have a craft that you can make a living from, and you don't have to lower your posture to rely on men to survive. ”

"People are born as independent individuals, I hope you can be like a bird, soaring in the sky, not bound to the inner house."

Lin Xiaoxi didn't understand anything when she heard it, but she wrote down this passage in her heart.

It wasn't until years later that she really understood what it meant.

"Mother, do you want me to learn a craft?"

She didn't want to leave the house, let alone learn any trade.

But if the mother wants her to learn......

Then she will study.

"Yes! Absolutely. Gu Xiaoxiao held the little girl in her arms.

Lin Xiaoxi pouted, "Then I'll go learn the horn." ”

Looking at the little girl's aggrieved appearance, Gu Xiaoxiao smiled heartily.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while.

The night is getting darker.

Gu Xiaoxiao went to fetch water and brought it to Wang Xiulian's house.

The three of them finished washing.

Lie down in bed.

Close your eyes and sleep.

……

Following.

Early morning.

Gu Xiaoxiao got up from the bed, opened her mouth and yawned.

Pulled his clothes and put them on his body, groped his way out of bed, pushed open the door and walked out.

"Mother~ You're awake!"

Lin Xiaoxi put the last bit of match, casually stacked it in the corner, clapped her hands and walked over.

"Mother, there are eggs boiled in the pot, and they are still hot."

Gu Xiaoxiao glanced into the corner and scratched her neck with some shame.

She just got up, and the little girl had already gone up the mountain and came back with a bag of dry firewood......

"Xiaobao, have you eaten eggs?"

"Eat! Mother, you said that you have to eat a full stomach and work to have strength, so the eggs are boiled, take two for my sister-in-law, and I ate one myself. ”

As she spoke, Lin Xiaoxi didn't forget to pat her stomach proudly, "Here, I'm not hungry yet!" ”

Gu Xiaoxiao smiled with relief.

"If you're not hungry, I'll wash my face."

I scooped up the water and washed my face briefly, and then when I opened the pot, I saw two eggs inside.

She was a little stunned.

Xiaoxi's girl ate one by herself, but prepared two eggs for both her and Xiulian......

This girl is really.

The two eggs were scooped up, and Gu Xiaoxiao forced one for Lin Xiaoxi.

"I don't like to eat eggs very much, Xiaobao, you can share one for me."

Lin Xiaoxi smiled stupidly, peeling eggs in her hands.

How can anyone not like to eat eggs, in order to give her food, my mother has to find an excuse, my mother is so cute~

After eating the eggs in two bites, the egg yolk choked in a panic, and Gu Xiaoxiao drank another saliva.

"Mother has to go to your third grandfather's house now, your third grandfather's waist is not good, I'll help take a look, you are obedient at home."

"Good~"

rubbed it on the little girl's head, and Gu Xiaoxiao went out.

Familiar with the road, I walked to the village chief's house.

Before entering the door, I met the village chief's daughter-in-law, as if she was going out.

"Third uncle."

Gu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to say hello.

"Yikes! Lin Zhao, you're here! ”

The village chief's daughter-in-law behaved enthusiastically, taking her hand and walking inside, but her eyebrows were full of sadness.

"My wife can't sleep all night these days, and her back hurts...... Yesterday I was telling you that you were coming today, and I waited for a long time. ”

Wait a long time?

Gu Xiaoxiao frowned for a moment, "Didn't I set this time with Lizheng yesterday......?"

The village chief's daughter-in-law smiled apologetically, "I know, I know, Li Zheng told me." It's me who is in a hurry. I'm afraid that if you come early and no one entertains you, I'll think about waiting for you. ”

While talking, the two walked into the bedroom.

The village chief was lying on the bed, dressed in a thin undershirt, which made him look particularly thin.

It looked like a dry bone, with no flesh on it.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao coming, the village chief turned over and wanted to sit up, but he pulled the wound on his waist, and he screamed in pain again.

"Oh, you're a real man! What's going on, it's still moving, lie down! ”

The village chief's daughter-in-law complained and helped the village chief to lie down.

Gu Xiaoxiao sat on the edge of the bed and said softly, "Third uncle, you stretch out your hand, and I'll check your pulse first." ”

The village chief stretched out his hand as he said.

Gu Xiaoxiao's three fingers touched the pulse.

The more she was diagnosed, the more solemn her face became, and she looked at the village chief, and stopped talking.

I decided to check my lower back again.

The village chief and the village chief's wife did not despise Lin Zhao because he had just learned.

Whatever Gu Xiaoxiao said, both of them obediently did it.

After a good diagnosis, she had a rough basis in her heart.

"Third uncle, did you suffer a serious injury when you were a child?"

The village chief's clothed hand paused and made a deep thought.

"Yes, there were. When I was young and naughty, when I was playing with the big guy, I accidentally fell down the mountain, hit a rock at that time, and was injured in the back of my waist, and lay on the bed for a long time, what? Did my back pain have anything to do with it at the time? ”

Gu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and nodded.

"Your old illness at that time fell to the root, and now that you are older, the old diseases have begun to attack one after another, and it will naturally start to hurt."

"Is there any cure?"

The village chief's daughter-in-law was beside her, and asked anxiously: "He hurts every day, and he can't even sleep well, Lin Zhao, can you prescribe some medicine or something, or take a needle to relieve the pain, so that he can suffer less crime." ”

"This ......" Gu Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed.

No matter what medicine is taken for an injury of this magnitude, the effect is not great.

The village chief is too thin.

is so thin that she is skinny, how can she do it?

After weighing her words, she spoke: "I'm not very sure, I have to discuss it with my master, do you want to ...... Wait? ”

The village chief's daughter-in-law knew that this matter was indeed a bit difficult, so she nodded, but she refused to let it go easily.

"That's fine! I asked my grandson Dazhu to call his second grandfather. It's almost noon, don't go, just leave my house for dinner. ”

Ah......h

Is this not allowed to go?

Gu Xiaoxiao scratched her scalp, "My Xiulian has just given birth, and I have to go back to cook for her at noon." ”

"It's okay, I'll just bring a copy to the Xiaolin Wang clan when it's done." The village chief's daughter-in-law is resolute and resolute, and she can't refuse at all.

Gu Xiaoxiao lives in the whole Bengbu.

Everyone has done this, and she said hard enough to leave.

It seems like...... Some can't make sense.
