Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 8

Back at Gu's house, Zhao Min didn't know what to do, so she followed Granny Gu step by step.

Gu Po stopped suddenly in front of Gu Lingqing's room door, Zhao Min was thinking about something on her mind, but she didn't notice it for a while, and bumped into it directly.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Mrs. Gu, are you okay?" Zhao Min quickly apologized.

Gu Po said coldly: "You are not allowed to enter this room without my permission."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Gu opened the door and stepped in. Just as Zhao Min wanted to poke her head in for a look, Mrs. Gu closed the door tightly with a "slap".

Zhao Min was so frightened that she took a step back, curled her lips, and muttered in a low voice, "Really, it's not like I haven't seen it before, I was lying on the bed inside yesterday!"

As soon as the words fell, the door opened from the inside, Zhao Min immediately fell silent, wondering if Po Gu heard her complaint.

Gu Po just glanced at her lightly, and handed her the clothes in her hand.

"From now on, you will be responsible for washing the clothes at home, less..." Gu Po suddenly stopped and continued, "You have to wash my grandson's clothes well, and you have to take good care of him. You don't have to stay any longer."

There was a strong sense of warning in Gu Po's eyes, and Zhao Min obediently took the clothes.

"Understood, Mrs. Gu." Zhao Min said angrily.

Jiang was still old and hot, and Gu Po strangled Zhao Min's lifeline with a few words, knowing that she absolutely didn't want to go back to Zhao's house.

"If you know, what are you doing here? There are wooden barrels and washing utensils in the yard. Our family doesn't keep idlers. Go to work first!"

Zhao Min took the clothes and walked to the side of the yard, picked up the bucket and laundry mallet and went out to the creek.

Gu Po looked at her leaving back, wondering what she was thinking, and stood there for a while before getting up to go to the kitchen.

Otherwise, Zhao Min didn't read the almanac when he went out today, but on the way, he ran into Zhang Qinghe.

Zhang Qinghe obviously didn't expect to meet Zhao Min, and his face was very embarrassed.

There is only this small road in front of him, no matter how embarrassed Zhang Qinghe is, he can only bite the bullet and walk forward.

Compared to Zhang Qinghe's uneasiness, Zhao Min just lamented that the original body was pitiful, and his family and his "groom-to-be" actually united to plot against him.

Zhao Min walked forward calmly. When passing by Zhang Qinghe, he didn't look sideways, and didn't intend to pay attention to him at all.

Zhang Qinghe, who was neglected, had a strange emotion in his heart. On the spur of the moment, he stopped Zhao Min, "Xiao Min."

Zhao Min clicked his tongue, turned around, with a sneer on his face, "I don't know why my little uncle called me?"

Zhang Qinghe felt uncomfortable when Zhao Min called him 'little uncle', and the words he had thought up were stuck in his throat, and the blush on his face reached the back of his ears.

"Xiao Min, I, I..."

Zhang Qinghe had a problem of being speechless when he was nervous, and Yuanshen entrusted his heart to him, so naturally he didn't feel this was a shortcoming, only felt that he was innocent.

The current Zhao Min looks really clumsy.

"If the little uncle is fine, the niece and daughter will not accompany him."

After Zhao Min finished speaking, he left without missing anything.

Why Xiao Min is so unfeeling to him now, Zhang Qinghe feels wronged in his heart!

"Damn motherfucker! Bastard! Green tea whore!"

Zhao Min was sitting by the stream, beating the clothes lying flat on the stone with a laundry mallet, cursing Grandma Zhao and Zhao Xiu'e.

Again and again, as if to pour all the grievances I have suffered in the past few days and the original body in these years on this clothes.

"Huh—" Zhao Min let out a long breath, raised his arms, and wiped the sweat off his face, it was considered finished.

Looking at the sun directly above her head, Zhao Min put the washed clothes into the wooden bucket, touched her stomach that had already protested to herself, and happily walked to Gu's house.

Seeing the smoke rising from the Gu family's yard from a distance, Zhao Min couldn't help speeding up his steps.

"Gu Po, I'm back."

Zhao Min confessed, and saw the clothes in the bucket hanging on the rope in the yard.

Gu Po looked at Zhao Min from the kitchen and said, "Come here!"

Zhao Min hopped over, but Gu Po had a disapproving expression on her face, "Just walk well, what does it look like!"

"Oh." Zhao Min stopped immediately, and walked over in a regular manner, "Grandma Gu, what can I do for you?"

Gu Po lifted her chin aside, "Go, feed the pig."

"Okay!" Zhao Min agreed straight away, walked to the side, picked up the bucket of swill and walked to the pigsty without any complaints.

Gu Po's complexion improved a bit.

"Squeak."

Zhao Min, who was feeding the pigs, heard the sound of the door opening, and subconsciously looked towards the door. Seeing that it was Gu Lingqing, he showed him the brightest smile in his life.

What a joke, after last night, Zhao Min can figure it out, this idiot is not that idiot, this 'idiot' is not the one who is in charge of the Gu family!
This is my future thigh, I have to hug it tightly.

Seeing that Zhao Min was still in her yard, Gu Lingqing frowned and walked towards Mrs. Gu who was cooking.

Zhao Min was ignored, and shrugged indifferently, "Peppa Pig, come and eat~"

"Gu Po, didn't you send her away this morning? Why did you come back with you?"

Gu Lingqing put aside the wooden bucket with two big fish in his hand, and looked back at Zhao Min.

"Master, are you back?" Gu Po added a handful of firewood to the stove, "It's choking here, stay away, and the old slave will explain to you later, the meal will be ready soon."

Zhao Min was far away and couldn't hear what the two were saying, but Gu Lingqing looked towards her a few times.

Whenever Gu Lingqing looked over, Zhao Min would raise the corners of his mouth, but he just glanced at it calmly, slandering in his heart: Isn't this girl a fool?
