Chapter 17

Chapter No.17

This should be his younger sister, who is only four or five points like Gu's mother.Lu smiled and said, "Didn't you think your younger brother was ugly when you saw him last time? How come you think he looks good after not seeing him for more than a day?" My son has only worked for two days, why do you think his son has changed so much?She was red when she was born, but now she is white and tender, her peach eyes are bigger than hers, and her small nose and mouth are so beautiful.

"Maybe it's opened, you were born ugly when you were young, don't you look good now?" Gu Wan took off her shoes and climbed onto the kang again, wriggling in Gu's mother's arms.Mrs. Lu hurriedly urged.

"My dear girl, don't move around, I'm wearing new clothes today, which cost a lot of money, and the butterflies and flowers also took my mother's energy!" Gu Wan touched the butterfly on the clothes, "Mother The butterflies embroidered for me are so pretty, I wish I could wear new clothes every day, Chunhua is so eye-catching today!"

"My daughter is good-looking, how can Chunhua compare?" Lu's lips curled up when she heard the eyes of others, and she became proud. There is no girl in this village who looks as good as her own daughter.

"Mom, are you calling me? What's the matter?" Before the person approached, he shouted loudly outside the door.

Gu Chengyu immediately turned her head, wanting to see who was about to appear again, the young woman who could be called Lu's mother must be He's without a doubt.After entering the room, I saw a woman younger than Fang's, with slightly slanted triangular eyes, prominent cheekbones, and dark skin.

If Gu Fang's appearance is ordinary, He's is not even ordinary.Looking at the figure again, it is actually a little round, Gu Chengyu is a little strange, isn't this family very poor?How did the meat grow?In the future, when Gu Chengyu knows the reason, he can only sigh that this is also a talent!

"Second brother, it's a big day today, don't jump up and down for me, if you let me know, take care of your skin. Humph, don't think that I don't know what you are doing if I don't leave the house these two days Already, I’ll take care of the fancy intestines in your belly, otherwise you’ll see some of them.”

"Oh, mother, look at what you said, how dare I disturb my little brother's Xisan'er? Otherwise, don't talk about you, even if the husband finds out, he will have to deal with me. Mother, don't worry! I never dare to be lazy .”

What Gu Heshi said was a mouth full of saliva, and the big yellow teeth that opened and closed the mouth made people dare not look directly at it.

"Ah! This little sister of our family is really pretty in this dress, like the daughter of the landlord's family. Oh, look, is this muslin? We haven't worn it yet. Mother, you are partial , we and his father haven't worn new clothes for a long time, why don't you let me and his father get involved on such a big day?" He actually saw the clothes on Gu Wan as soon as he entered the door, carefully It looks like the eyeballs are protruding.

"There is embroidery on it, the embroidery is really good, mother, when will you teach me how to embroider?" He looked at it and started to touch it.

"Mother, look at the hands of the second sister-in-law, she doesn't know whether she has washed them or not, so she came to touch me." Gu Wan saw those hands, there were still dirt in the nails, and immediately hid in Gu's mother's arms.

Mrs. Lu put her arms around Gu Wan, her eyes widened angrily, "What's wrong? This is my dowry from back then, there is only so much left in total, and the rest are given as dowry gifts to you and the elders. You still worry about this Up? Who is the daughter-in-law who still misses her mother-in-law’s dowry? I haven’t worn new clothes for several years, why don’t you say to honor your mother and me first? And teach you how to embroider? Your elm head can embroider A flower? You can't even twist a needle and thread. Look at your clothes. You don't know how to tidy up when you come today. It's really unlucky that the second child married you. You don't even have to wear decent clothes. .”

Because Mrs. He was getting close, Gu Chengyu looked at her. Mrs. He was wearing a red coarse cloth collar and blue trousers.The color of the clothes and trousers is a little faded, but at least there are no patches, but the stitches are thick, the color of the top is light, and faded a little, the stains are a little conspicuous, and some are greasy. How long has it been since they have been washed?

"Mother, isn't this the only clothes I have for entertaining guests? The rest are torn and repaired. Wearing them like this will lose your face. Why don't you give me some money and I'll tear a piece of cloth and make a new one for you to wear." Right?" He licked his face and smiled, not angry, but continued to ask for money.

"Is it possible that you haven't worn new clothes for several years alone in this family? I gave it to you, do others want it? How can our family have so much money?

I have made clothes, can't I survive this day?You prodigal bitch.What about the second child?Let him take his mother-in-law back, something he doesn't understand. Lu Shi stared at He Shi, panting heavily, and was about to drive her out.

Gu Chengyu was a little worried, after all, the production has not resumed yet!This farm family has so many things to do, they can't even have a stable confinement.

"What's the matter again? The second family is so busy ahead, why don't you go out to help? Do you want to run here to hide from laziness?" Father Gu also came in from the outside, holding a bowl and a pair of chopsticks , I think it's for breakfast.

Father Gu is around forty, with gray temples, silver streaks in his hair, a square face, full of vicissitudes, a man who is used to doing farm work, and his appearance can only be regarded as Zhou Zheng.

However, those big eyes that are similar to Gu Wan's are quite charming, it seems that Gu Wan has inherited the big eyes from old man Gu.He was wearing short blue coarse cloth, trousers of the same color, a belt tied around his waist, and a cigarette stick stuck in it.

Old man Gu came in with great strides, such an ordinary old man Gu was able to marry such a beautiful wife as his mother, what a blessing.

"Look at what dad said, isn't there something wrong with Mother calling me here? Mother is hungry, is she going to have breakfast? This baby is getting hungry sooner."

Seeing his father-in-law coming in, Mrs. He couldn't stay any longer, but he couldn't move his eyes when he saw the bowl in Father Gu's hand in a blink of an eye.This mother-in-law is really expensive. She has to eat three meals a day, and three eggs per meal are unshakable, and the eggs she saves are eaten by her mother-in-law.Yesterday, the chickens that laid eggs were killed, and only three old hens and one rooster were lost.Looking at the eggs in the bowl, her mouth drools, but she also knows that she can't eat the eggs.

"Father, mother, then I'm going out, I'm still busy ahead!" After finishing speaking, he looked at the egg again, and went out slowly.

"Master, are you going to take Xiaobao out? I'll change his clothes and quilt." Lu Shi took the bowl in Old Gu's hand and ate it whole. During this time, he saw Gu Wan staring into the bowl and fed him again. Two daughters.

"When you finish eating, it's still early. You have to eat more, and you still have to breastfeed. It's okay if you're not full. I'll go to the small market in Dasang Village tomorrow, and I'll bring you some snacks." Gu Laopa thought Where are three eggs enough?The black-faced Wowo can't give birth to milk, and I'll go to the net to order fish tomorrow, and I'll make up for Da Ya along the way.

"Why do you spend that money? Those pastries are so expensive!" Although Mrs. Lu said that she disliked the price and didn't want to buy it, the corners of her mouth curled up to tell that she was very pleased with it.

"Mom, I want to eat cakes too." When Gu Wan heard that there were cakes to eat, how could she bear it?Papa Gu is also a doting daughter.

"Buy, I'll buy you Yunpian Cake. It's fine, and the baby is small. It's easy to digest after eating." The main thing is that women like to eat it.Papa Gu grinned after finishing speaking.

"What kind of cake do you want to buy? It costs twenty yuan a catty. It's very expensive, even more expensive than pork, so you can call it half a catty jujube cake." Gu Wan wanted to make a fuss again.

"Be obedient, otherwise I won't buy it for you to eat. The jujube cake is sweet, so there's nothing more to make trouble about." Gu Wan saw that her mother had a serious face, so she had to give up. Although the cloud cake was delicious, her mother was reluctant to buy it. There is jujube cake That's okay too.

"I'll come and see my son." Father Gu saw that Mrs. Lu had coaxed the daughter well, so he went to the kang to see his youngest son.

"Ah! Damn, why does Xiaobao look so good? Look at this little girl, she looks like you, so pretty."

Mrs. Lu became proud, "That's right, I don't want to see who gave birth. I'll change his clothes, and you can carry him out after changing!"

Father Gu thought it was due to his daughter-in-law's three meals a day of eggs and chicken soup, and made up his mind to ask Lu Shi to eat more.

Clothes and quilts have been prepared long ago, and the baby's skin is delicate, so he can only wear fine cotton cloth.After a while, Gu Chengyu, who was dressed in new clothes, was carried out by Gu Lao.
