Chapter 84
She said gently, "Can you tell my sister why you don't want to go home?"

Mo Li's voice came from the side: "Don't ask, she is just a little mute, she can't ask anything."

"I'm not dumb."

The little boy spoke suddenly.

Mo Li spat out the hay in his mouth: "Then I asked you so much just now, why didn't you say a word?"

"Thank you for saving me..." The little boy lowered his head, "I don't remember who I am, I just remember that I was in the brothel when I woke up...Can you take me in..."

Gu Qing stretched out her hand to touch it, and sure enough, she felt a bulge the size of an egg on the back of the boy's head. It seemed that he bumped his head and lost his memory.

Gu Qing agreed.

The young boy only vaguely remembers being called Huai'er. He is 12 years old this year. He doesn't remember exactly what his name is, where he comes from, and what he does at home.

The 12-year-old boy was exactly the same age as Gu Yu.

"Since Brother Yang saved you, and you can't remember your own name, let's take Brother Yang's surname as Yang, and we will call you Yang Huai from now on."

Gu Qing asked Yang Pei to ask a doctor to show Yang Huai's head, and asked Zhu Han to go to a clothing store to buy clean clothes for him to change into.

Yang Huai has delicate features, especially good-looking, looks like the young master of a rich family.

Zhu Han handed him the clothes, and when he wanted to say something, Yang Huai started to take off his clothes.

"..." He hurriedly said, "Wait, I'll go out first."

This kid doesn't know how to avoid people when he changes clothes.

He hastily opened the door and let the room out.

Yang Huai took off his clothes and put on the clothes with great effort. After putting them on, his eyes were red.

He vaguely remembered that when he was at home, there were people waiting for him to dress, and he never had to do it himself.

But now he doesn't even know where he is.

He cried silently for a while, and after wiping away his tears, he bent down and picked up the dirty clothes on the ground.

Walking to the yard, I looked around in a daze, not knowing how to wash clothes at all.

"Let's go home first!" Gu Qing had already read the account book at this time, packed a few pastries and was about to go back to the village, when she saw Yang Huai standing stupidly holding dirty clothes.

It was getting late, and a few people packed up and got on the carriage and headed to Gujia Village.

After arriving home, Zhu Han came over and told him: "The wooden basin is over there, the water tank is over there, and there is soap in the kitchen, just use soap to wash it."

The owner of the house has said that anyone at home must do their own things.

So even if the young master doesn't seem to know how to wash clothes, Zhu Han doesn't intend to help. At most, if the young master doesn't wash well, he can help wash it again.

Yang Huai walked to the water tank with the clothes in his arms, and began to wash the clothes in a decent manner.

Gu Qing saw it from a distance, and was a little relieved. Although this is a pampered young master, his temperament is not bad.

She pulled Mo Li and Yang Pei aside, and said with a serious face, "Whose idea is it to go to Yihonglou today?"

Mo Li bowed his head guiltily.

"A Li, did I tell you that you are not allowed to go to that kind of place?" Gu Qing said earnestly, "You don't have to explain, of course I know that going there in broad daylight is for business, no matter how big the business is there. Do it, and you are not allowed to go there again, do you hear me?"

In a land of three teachings and nine streams, people who come and go to such occasions are not idle people.

It's fine to do business, but he dared to rescue someone from the brothel so boldly.

Can someone who can open a brothel be a small role?
She eased her tone and said, "Let Xiaohan and Rong'er handle the matter of selling stewed meat in the town for a while, and wait until the limelight passes."

Mo Li nodded immediately: "I will never go there again."

Yang Pei didn't dare to resist: "I listen to the Patriarch."

Gu Qing patted the shoulders of the two of them: "Go to work."

She walked to Yang Huai's side, and helped them wring out the drenched clothes, and put them on the bamboo poles to dry.

He opened the mouth and said: "In our family, there is no free food."

"When I remember, I will give you the money." Yang Huai hurriedly said, "If Sister Gu doesn't believe it, just take this jade pendant, it's my personal possession."

He took out a cyan jade pendant hanging around his neck.

Gu Qing smiled and said: "You keep the jade pendant for yourself. You are still a child, so I won't arrange heavy work for you. From now on, you will be responsible for feeding the chickens and ducks at home. What do you think?"

Everyone in the family has to work.

In addition to selling stewed pork, Yang Pei is also in charge of everything in the field.

In addition to managing the dessert shop, Zhu Han also contracted the stove.

Gu Yu Gu Nuo was in charge of digging wild vegetables up the mountain to feed the chickens and ducks, and walked wolves and dogs along the way.

Mo Li is in charge of purchasing offal, and will come back in the afternoon to help out.I also contracted the work of pounding rice. Rice is prone to worms, so it is usually pounded out in advance when it needs to be eaten.

Dong Rong is responsible for carrying water. There are many people in his family, so he has to carry water many times a day. Besides carrying water, he also goes to the mountains to collect hay and chop firewood. Now he does all kinds of rough work.

In addition, Mo Li and Dong Rong still have to study and teach, and after returning home, they will give Gu Yu and Gu Nuo a small lesson.

Yang Huai took the jade pendant back.

Seeing a few fluffy chicks next to him, he immediately smiled and nodded vigorously: "I will definitely take good care of them."

Gu Qing carefully told him what chickens and ducks like to eat, and he carefully wrote it down.

The food at home in the evening is very rich.

I didn’t sell all of the wild boar, I saved some to eat at home, I made a steamed ribs, a braised pork, a pig’s blood tofu, a plate of lo mei, and pork belly soup, plus the necessary vegetables, A table full of food.

Yang Huai was a little surprised.

The house looked dilapidated and small, and he thought he could only afford wild vegetables, but he didn't expect to eat so much.

After everyone moved their chopsticks, he picked up a piece of braised pork and tasted it, and was stunned.

This taste seemed to be even better than the ones he had eaten before.

Yang Huai's memory was fuzzy and chaotic, and once he tried to recall it, he would feel a splitting headache.

He was locked up in the brothel for a day and a night without any water or rice.

But even if he was extremely hungry, the upbringing engraved in his bones made him eat slowly, eating in small bites, with a touch of elegance in his movements.

"Brother Han, your cooking is getting better and better!" Gu Nuo's mouth was stuffed, "I'll feed the last few pieces of braised pork to Xiao Hei."

He took the braised pork on the table and threw it into the yard.

Everyone at the dinner table continued to eat without showing any abnormality or dissatisfaction with this behavior.

Yang Huai was a little dazed, feeding the dog with meat, always felt that this scene seemed familiar, but he really couldn't remember it.

After dinner.

Mo Li leaned on the chair to digest, he saw Yang Pei ready to put away the dishes, he hurriedly said: "Isn't it a turn to wash the dishes? It just happened to be a turn. Now it's our newcomer's turn?"

Yang Pei continued to work: "Yang Huai has just arrived and is not yet familiar with him. Let him have a good rest and wait for the next round."

Yang Huai had already started to pack the bowls and chopsticks without saying a word. He stacked all the bowls together jerky, picked them up and walked out.

ps: Thanks to Qiugua Xiaocuti for the monthly pass.
