Splendid pastoral, the doctor girl is a little sweet

Chapter 36 Not enough to eat

One day later, Gu Yingying heard Gu Qingfeng say early in the morning, "Ying'er, you should prepare more meals today, so that your unprofessional second brother can taste your cooking skills and know how unmotivated he is. .”

"Oh, don't say that about the second brother. He can come back in the past few days. He must have reflected on it inside and will definitely correct it in the future." Gu Yingying was happy in her heart. It turned out that Niu was right. Really coming back.

No matter how bad people say or hate second brother, in her eyes, second brother is the best brother.

When my father left the stove house and only she and Mrs. Zhu were in the room, he said to Mrs. Zhu:
"Second sister-in-law, after you have breakfast, go find sister Xinlan and go with her to cut some leeks in her vegetable garden. I heard from Aunt Xu that the leeks in her house grow vigorously, but she He works at our house all day long, so he doesn't care about cutting leeks to cook, and let us cut some to eat."

Xu's house is at the entrance of the village, and the vegetable garden is also nearby.

Standing in Xu's vegetable garden, you can see vehicles and pedestrians passing by the village entrance.Of course, you can also see the second brother who is about to return.

Zhu Shi looked at Gu Yingying gratefully, with shyness and anticipation in her eyes, and said, "Sister, thank you."

After Gu Yingying and Zhu Shi brought the food to the table, they saw Niu Shi who came with her in-laws.Unlike Niu's previous visits alone, this time, they brought some vegetables alone.

Especially Niu's mother-in-law, the radishes in the bamboo basket are white and tender.That appearance is really good.

There is no reason not to accept a gift that comes to your door.

It's just that after receiving these gifts, Gu Yingying couldn't help guessing in her heart when she returned to the kitchen:

Previously, they only sent a Niu family to help with the cooking, and the Luo family, who had never sent another person to help, suddenly sent two more people to help, and even gave some gifts.Is there anything you can ask the Gu family?

Could it be that the men from the Niu family are coming back, and the old men of the Luo family deliberately acted for their sons in order to let their sons know that the family and the villagers are still getting along in harmony?

After breakfast, the villagers followed Xu Tai to work in the paddy field west of the entrance of the village.

Gu Yingying was making cakes in the kitchen by herself, thinking that she would be able to eat fresh red date cakes as soon as the second brother walked into the house.

The second brother has been in prison for so many days, so it's time for him to eat something delicious.

After a while, Gu Yingying steamed the red date cake.As soon as the lid was opened, the rich fragrance permeated the whole room.

Gu Yingying couldn't bear to taste a piece of cake, so she quickly put the lid on, hoping to eat hot cakes as soon as her second brother came back.

Unfortunately, at this moment, the door of the kitchen was gently pushed open.

Gu Yingying thought it was the second sister-in-law who came back, let's see if she steamed the pastries.He asked aloud, "Are you in such a hurry?"

Unexpectedly, Niu's voice came from next to his ear.

"Oh, it's not that I'm in a hurry. It's just because the food you cook is so delicious that our Xingya will think about it after eating it. No, as soon as she heard that we were here today, So I ran to the edge of the field. My mother-in-law said that I was inconvenient and I couldn't pick up much grain in the field, so she asked me to bring Xingya back and help you."

After hearing this, Gu Yingying felt that the reason Niu gave was somewhat far-fetched.

But after thinking about it, Xing Ya'er is a motherless child, and she still helped her.

But when she lifted the lid to look at the pastries, the scent filled the whole kitchen, no matter who came, they could smell it.

It's always hard not to give Xingya to eat.

As for Niu Shi, she is pregnant with a child, so of course she can't be treated badly.It's just that there isn't much flour at home, mainly to help sister Xinlan make pastries for the person she has a crush on, so a lot of flour and eggs were used up.

So the cakes I made for my second brother this time are only nine yuan in total.

If it was given to Niu and the others, there would be very little left, and there would be little left for the family to eat.

Gu Yingying looked at the kitchen knife placed on the cutting board, intending to cut a piece of pastry into two and let Niu Shi and Xing Ya'er each eat half.

Unexpectedly, Xingya stretched out her hand and shook Niu's hand, sniffed, and pleaded: "It smells so good, it must be delicious. I want to eat it."

What the six-year-old girl said must be the truth.

But she only made so many pastries, and it's not fake.Gu Yingying raised her eyes to look at Xing Ya'er, only to see that the little girl was looking at her expectantly.

The little girl was thin and her hair had no luster.Compared with the children of the same age in the village, it was as if Xing Ya'er was abused by her family when she was at home.

Xing Ya'er pursed her lips at Gu Yingying, tears fell down "shua".Originally, Xingya was wearing tattered clothes, and with her expression, if people who didn't know saw it, they would probably think that this child was a beggar.

Gu Yingying felt a pain in her heart, she just wanted to let Xingya eat the pastry, so she lifted the lid and took out the pastry with a fork.

Niu Shi who was on the side saw the steaming red date cake with white sesame seeds sticking to the surface, and couldn't help swallowing.Unexpectedly, Xing Ya'er, who was standing beside her, took a step forward to get the jujube cake after putting down her hand.

Gu Yingying planned to give one piece to Niu and two pieces to Xingya.But she caught a glimpse of the pot ashes in Xingya'er's hand, and quickly persuaded:
"Come on, wash your hands with me first, and then eat."

Where is Xingya willing to agree, she just grabbed the pastry and fed it to her mouth, gobbling it hungrily.It's like these pastries will be snatched back by Gu Yingying on the opposite side.

In the blink of an eye, both cakes were eaten by Xing Yaer.

"It's delicious, I want more!" Xing Ya'er smacked her lips in satisfaction, and no longer asked for it indirectly from Niu Shi, but directly asked for it from Gu Yingying.

"Xingya, we're going to have lunch later, so don't eat pastries for now."

After saying this, Gu Yingying looked at Niu Shi, intending to tell her:
"The next time I ask someone to buy flour and come back to make more pastries, I will invite you to eat."

Gu Yingying showed embarrassment.Some words, if you explain it to a six-year-old girl, they may not be able to understand it.But Niu Shi is the elder of the family and has also cooked, so he can always understand her difficulties.

Niu lowered his head in embarrassment, feeling quite embarrassed.

Xingya'er is the most beloved granddaughter of her mother-in-law, but after all, she is quite pitiful without her mother by her side.Not to mention in Gu's house, even in her own house, she never said Xing Ya'er was bad at all.

At the same time, she couldn't blame Gu Yingying for her lack of sympathy.No matter what, in these days, neither she nor Xingya ate the delicacies made by Gu Yingying.

But the mother-in-law had considered this a long time ago, so she picked some larger radishes and sent them to the Gu family.Tell her and Xing Yaer, "We delivered food to Gu's family. In the future, if you eat food made by Gu Xiaoyaer, you won't owe her much."
