After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 5
The two left the entrance of Gu's village in silence, and Yu An was the first to break the silence: "Brother Dong, what should we plan for the future? Go to the academy to continue studying. We are penniless now, and we can't pay Shuxiu..."

Dong Rong was silent for a long time, he had no sisters in his family, and his parents still expected him to be famous, so he couldn't just waste his studies: "Go home!"

"Go home?" Yu An was in trouble. His family's situation was different from Dong Rong's. He was able to study thanks to his elder sister. Now that the elder sister was married, he didn't know if he would continue to support him to study at Yunshan College.

It's still forty or fifty miles away from their home. It's useless to think too much, so I divided half of the [-] Wen given by Gu Qing to Dong Rong. I thought Dong Rong would not accept it, but Dong Rong hesitated for a while. , or took it, the two were relatively speechless, and continued on their way.

Gu Qing closed the courtyard door and put a wooden peg across it: "The two of them are gone, the three of you can live in one room without crowding, everyone, wash up and sleep!"

Zhu Han hurriedly brought over a pot of hot water: "Master, the water has been boiled, you can wash it first."

First?
This means, after she finished washing, how many of them will continue to wash?
The corners of Gu Qing's mouth twitched.

Unexpectedly, after she finished washing, Zhu Han poured out the water and refilled a basin of clean hot water for Gu Yu to wash.

Gu Qing was dumbfounded, it turned out that she was asked to wash first because there was no water, but because there was only one washbasin in the house.

When it was time to go to sleep, Gu Qing petrified again.

Adobe walls, broken beds.

The dark and sticky quilt gave off a disgusting smell.

She admits that Yuanshen is lazy, but there is no one in this family who likes to be clean and can't stand it, and washes the quilt for Yuanshen?
When heaven and man were at war, the snoring sound from each room could be heard one after another.

The snoring came and went, how can I still sleep here.

Gu Qing wanted to cry but had no tears.

When she has money, the first thing to do is to build a house. She must build a big brick house with green bricks, and fill all the gaps with bricks so that the sound cannot pass through!
That night, she tossed and turned and finally fell asleep.

A rooster crowed, awakening the sleeping Gujia Village, the genius was slightly bright, and the thin morning light shrouded the village.

Villagers get up very early to go to the fields to pull weeds and eliminate insects before the sun comes out. A busy day begins.

Gu Qing didn't sleep well all night. This is a hard bed with reeds and straw under the sheets. She always feels uncomfortable when she sleeps. Fortunately, it is summer now. If it is winter, it will be really terrible.

The lower-level peasants couldn't afford cotton at all, so they gritted their teeth and bought a quilt when they got married. The usual quilts were stuffed with straw and reed flowers... In Gujia Village, which is neither south nor north, there is no custom of burning Kang. It is really necessary to rely on righteousness to resist the severe cold...

Gu Qing felt that the burden on her shoulders was heavy, not only to fill her stomach, but also to get at least one clean quilt for one person before winter came.

She sat up and got out of bed.

Several people in the family are busy, Gu Nuo is washing clothes and tidying up the yard, Yang Pei is going to go out to work in the field, Zhu Han is going to carry water, Mo Li is going to chop firewood, Gu Yu is carrying a bamboo basket to dig wild vegetables... stay The people below all work in an orderly manner, only Gu Qing does not work for nothing

"Wait!"

Gu Qing frowned and said.

She turned around and walked into the back room, clicked on the mall to buy millet, millet is actually the yellow rice here, and the price of millet in the modern mall is the same as rice.

Although the rice is delicious and filling, the origin is not easy to explain.

She glanced at the balance in her hand, and bought five catties of millet with the remaining ten Wen.

Gu Qing walked out with Xiaomi in her hand: "Eat breakfast before going to work."

Zhu Han took the bag, why does the owner still have food?He opened the bag and was startled.Their family has never eaten such a beautiful yellow rice!
"What a fuss, it's all the military pay from my parents' army!" Gu Qing said softly, "Let's cook porridge twice in two days."

Everyone knows that the father-in-law and the mother-in-law are generals who are not big or small. As for whether they brought back the military salary, they really don't know. Gu Qing has always been a thief against everyone, not even her own brothers and sisters. exception.

Gu Qing really couldn't swallow the whole meal, the main reason is that millet porridge is very nutritious and can nourish the stomach.

This large group of young guys haven't had a full stomach for too long, and there are more or less stomach problems, which need to be raised slowly.

Zhu Han was stunned. He took a bag of rice, which was about five catties. Five catties of yellow rice was divided into two days to cook porridge, so everyone could drink at least two bowls!
After having a full meal last night, he thought he would be hungry for a month, but he didn't expect the owner to become so generous!

He didn't ask any more questions, and went to the kitchen to cook porridge with the rice bag in hand.

Yang Pei put down his hoe to help Zhu Han. The three of them were the first to come. Compared with Dong Rong and Dong Rong, the two scholars, the three of them had a worse family situation than the other, and naturally they had the best relationship.

Gu Nuo and Gu Yu licked their lips and surrounded the stove.

Only Mo Li frowned slightly, thinking in his heart, is the Patriarch really planning to live a good life?All the food at home is willing to take out and eat, and then you really plan to turn the prodigal son back and change his mind?

Never mind, he will eat more later, he can't take advantage of the people of Hualou Casino!
After eating all the food, the owner of the house would not be able to go to Hualou Casino if he had no food to sell!

The morning glow appeared in the sky, and the sky was bright.

The rice porridge was bubbling and bubbling, overflowing from the gap in the broken pot, and the fragrance of millet spread.

Gu Nuo's saliva flowed down, sucked it up and swallowed it, and then flowed out again.

Gu Qing wanted to use something to wipe the little guy's saliva, but found that there was no towel at home to wipe his mouth. Wipe it with your own clothes, it's so dirty, wipe it with your hands, she can't make such a big one Sacrifice... Forget it, just pretend you didn't see it.

After a while, a pot of millet porridge is ready, one bowl for each person, there is still more than half in the broken pot, you can continue to add more after eating.

The whole family finished their porridge with a sigh of relief, then sat on the chairs and sighed contentedly.

If this is a dream, I hope this dream will continue, they would rather never wake up in the dream.

"When you're full, get ready to work." Gu Qing said, "Yang Pei, go down to the field to see the situation. Mo Li went to fetch water, and today he brought back two more buckets. It's hot weather and you should take a bath. Zhu Han , you go chop wood."

bath?The owner of the house who never let them wash his clothes actually said he wanted to take a bath?Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't dare to ask more questions.

Gu Nuo burped: "Sister, what should I do?"

"Gu Nuo and Gu Yu went up the mountain with me." Gu Qing stood up, "It's not enough to just eat the staple food, you have to find something to serve as a side dish."

Gu Yu was a little surprised.

Ever since her parents sacrificed their lives for the country, the eldest sister has never done any work. It is her and Gu Nuo's task to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.

Her lips parted, but she swallowed back what she wanted to say.

It's better for the eldest sister to work than go out and fool around. The big deal is that she just needs to do more.

A family of six went out together, divided into several groups.

Now the sun has slowly risen, and more and more people are busy in the village.

Gu Qing saw many crops standing on the ridge of the field in the old-fashioned way, touching the ears of grain with satisfaction, showing a satisfied look.

Are you satisfied with the output?Gu Qing looked at it and shook his head.

All the way to the mountain, the wild vegetables in the woods by the roadside were dug up by the villagers, and many women and children had to go deeper.

【Ding!Discover Natural Wild Dandelions! 】

Dandelions are the most abundant on this road, with tenacious vitality, and they are everywhere in the woods.
