After death, I became the cannon fodder of the three protagonists

Chapter 85 Birthday
In the blink of an eye, it was Gu Ping'an's eighth birthday.

Su Mo got up before dawn and made longevity noodles for Gu Pingan, the kind that made a bowl of noodles.

In the past, when she celebrated her birthday, her mother would make this, and put an egg in it.

My mother said that if you eat one piece until the end, you will have a long life in the future.

Thinking of this, Su Mo's nose felt a little sour.

Following the steps she remembered, she kneaded the noodles...

Sunlight poured down and slipped in through the cracks in the room.

Gu Ping'an hasn't had a birthday since Gu Dalang and the others died, and he has long since forgotten that He Xi was his birthday.

He got up from the bed, put on his clothes, and went out. When he saw Gu Jinnian, he grinned.

"Second brother, morning."

Gu Jinnian glanced at him and twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Morning, brother."

Gu Ping'an was visibly happier.

He went to the bathroom with Gu Jinnian, took the soaked willow branch by Su Mo and began to rinse his mouth.

After washing up, the two started to go for a run. When they came back, Su Mo had already made breakfast, and there was hot water in the kitchen for them to wash.

Gu Xingnian has already learned from Su Mo that today is Gu Ping'an's birthday, so he will sit on a chair and smile while staring at Gu Ping'an who entered the door.

Gu Pingan scratched his head, feeling that the little girl was a little baffled.

Su Mo patted Gu Xingnian on the shoulder, motioned her to restrain herself, and asked Gu Pingan and the two to go to the table quickly.

"Hurry up and eat noodles at the table. After eating, mother will take you to the county to play."

When Gu Pingan heard that he could not read, his eyes lit up, and he picked up his chopsticks to eat, but found that there was only one noodle in the bowl.

Gu Ping'an was at a loss for words.

Su Mo's brows and eyes slightly curved, "This is your eighth birthday, mother specially made longevity noodles, sandwich one end and eat slowly, from the beginning to the end, you will live a long life."

Gu Xingnian covered her mouth and smiled, and when Su Mo finished speaking, she spoke crisply.

"Happy birthday brother."

Gu Pingan sat on the chair in a daze, looking at the noodles in the bowl.

tick tock... tick tock...

Tears fell down from the corners of his eyes and dripped into the bowl.

"Okay, why are you still crying?"

Gu Pingan wanted to say that he was very happy.

But my throat was sore and swollen, and I couldn't say anything when it reached my mouth.

Su Mo sighed inwardly, gave Gu Xingnian a wink, and asked her in a low voice to go to the room to get the handkerchief for washing her face.

Gu Xingnian obediently responded, running fast with her short legs.

Gu Ping'an had stopped crying, Su Mo handed over the handkerchief and said, "Wipe it quickly."

"Thank you ma'am."

Gu Pingan took the veil, choked up and spoke, his voice was as weak as a mosquito.

Su Mo really likes to rub the heads of the three children. The hair is soft and feels great.

She moved her claws away from Gu Ping'an's head, pointed at the longevity noodles with a smile.

"Okay, if you don't eat noodles, you'll be dry.

We still have to drive the ox cart to the county. "

Gu Pingan nodded, picked up the chopsticks, picked up one end of the noodles and started eating according to Su Mo's words.

The taste of the noodles is very ordinary, no different from the noodles in the past, but the young man thinks that this is the most delicious delicacy in the world.

Gu Jinnian didn't know his own birthday either, looking at the scene of Su Mo and Gu Ping'an's mother being kind and filial, he felt a little sour.

He lowered his head, looked at the same noodles in his bowl as usual, pursed his lips, and stuffed them into his mouth in big mouthfuls.

Obviously she still cooked the noodles, but he felt unwilling to eat them.

After the family had breakfast, Su Mo took the children to the county town. It was already getting cold in August, so the summer clothes he made at the beginning would not last long.

Su Mo first took the three children to Fang Yue's place to order several autumn and winter clothes.

After paying the money, Fang Yue wanted to greet Su Mo for a while.

But there are a lot of customers in the shop, and since Su Mo knew about her relationship with Fang Shi, she didn't want to get too entangled with her.

People's hearts are unpredictable, they are brothers and sisters with blood relationship, she can't trust them.

Su Mo smiled slightly, and calmly withdrew her hand from Fang Yue's.

"Good sister, hurry up and go, I'll come back to get the clothes on the fifteenth day."

On August [-]th, the Moon Worship Festival is the same as the Lantern Festival. The county will hold a temple fair, decorated with lanterns and festoons, which is very lively.

And that day was also Gu Jinnian's birthday.

"Yes, when the time comes, let's go to the temple fair together, and sleep at my place at night."

Su Mo smiled, but did not give an answer.

A few more customers came in to the shop, all coming to make thick clothes because of the cold weather.

Seeing this, Fang Yue rushed to receive the guests, and asked Su Mo to go there before leaving.

After leaving Fang Yue's shop, Su Mo took the child to a place that sold quilts.

The guy greeted him enthusiastically.

"Madam, do you want to buy our finished ones, or do you go back and get the cotton cloth yourself?"

Su Mo had been here before, so he knew the difference between the two.

She didn't hesitate, and she just wanted to make the quilt, which is more expensive, but it's not like making it by herself, if it is not done properly, it will run out of cotton.

Three quilts weighing about five catties will be available soon.

Considering that the winter in Luoshan Village is really cold, Su Mo also bought three quilts weighing eight catties.

This can be regarded as a big customer, the buddy Le's eyes narrowed into a line.

"Madam, our shop can deliver goods, do you think you need it?"

"Do you want money?"

The guy shook his head: "You bought so much, how can we charge you here?"

When Su Mo heard that he didn't want money, he naturally agreed.

"Then trouble you to send it to Luoshan Village around [-]:[-], and I will let the child wait for you at the entrance of the village."

The buddy bowed quickly, "Okay."

For a birthday, it is naturally impossible to just have a bowl of longevity noodles.

Su Mo took the three children to stop and go on the street, and asked the three if they wanted to eat when they encountered food.

Gu Xingnian never refuses anyone who comes, her stomach is full of food.

Although Gu Pingan also eats, he will pay attention to the price, if it is expensive, he will not.

Only Gu Jinnian, his new teeth are only half-grown, and because of the jealousy in his heart, he doesn't eat anything.

Su Mo saw it in her heart, but didn't show it on her face.

She can't always take care of Gu Jinnian's emotions in every detail. Proper letting go is not necessarily a bad thing.

Su Mo hugged Gu Xingnian, led Gu Ping'an and Gu Jinnian to the bank first, took the 20 taels of silver notes with the voucher, and then went straight to the silver building.

When she came back from Huzhou Mansion, she had the idea of ​​using the gold to put a longevity lock on the three children.

In Luoshan Village, longevity locks are also called longevity strands. They are mostly made of copper coins, cloth, and silk threads, and are worn when newborns are born for a hundred days or one year old.

The Gu family did as the Romans did, and Gu Ping'an and Gu Jinnian put longevity locks made of sterling silver on their [-]-day banquet.

It's a pity that Gu Dalang, Gu Jingting, and Ning Nanqing died later, and the original owner was unable to make ends meet, so he pawned both longevity locks.

As for Gu Xingnian, after the full moon, he was thrown to Gu Ping'an and Gu Jinnian, and he was never given a hundred days or a first year, let alone a longevity lock.

But the gold is too conspicuous, and it will inevitably attract people's envy, so let it go.

Now that she was free, and it was Gu Ping'an's eighth birthday, she thought about giving the longevity lock to the third child.
