The first wife of the strongest peasant daughter

Chapter 17 Cabbage Dumplings, Unpalatable!
Gu Raniang didn't expect her family to be able to redeem her body even though she couldn't even eat, so she couldn't wait to ask, "Didn't the Qin family not allow her body to be redeemed? What did you think of?"

Mrs. Gu said proudly, "It's Jiulang! She dreamed of the clothes worn by the fairy in the fairyland, so she drew them and took them to the embroidery workshop to make them and give them to Mrs. Qin! Mrs. Qin likes them, and she doesn't ask for money. Let us take you away!" She knew that the suit was expensive, but it was worth more than anything else to redeem Ran Niang!

When Gu Raniang went to kowtow to thank her, she saw the clothes Mrs. Qin was wearing, touched Gu Chuhan's head, and said comfortingly, "Jiulang is amazing! Our family relies on you to eat and earn money! I also redeemed my second sister." came back!"

Being patted on the head by a fourteen-year-old child and turning to look at her, Gu Chuhan had an inexplicable feeling, "Eh...Second Sister! There is still a lot of work waiting for you at home! The New Year's dinner hasn't arrived yet." Landing!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Raniang hurriedly responded, "I'll do it! I'll do it at home!"

Gu Shilang and Gu Ruoniang ran over excitedly when they saw the second sister coming back, "Second sister! Second sister!"

Gu Raniang's eyes were red again.

Mrs. Gu also wiped her tears, "The family of five is finally complete!"

"However, we are still impoverished, with nothing to live in! We don't even have a penny!" Gu Chuhan said with a smile, and the more he talked, the more he wanted to laugh.

"Ah!?" Gu Raniang was shocked.

Mrs. Gu hurriedly comforted, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! We have hands and feet, so we won't starve to death!"

"Yes! I can work too! I can also tie the net!" Gu Ruoniang also patted her small chest to promise.

Gu Shilang also promised that he would chop firewood, cook, and fetch water!

Gu Raniang's heart was hot. Although the soreness and pain of being poor still lingered, the blood in her body was already hot!Hope has sprouted and taken root in my heart!
A family of five went into battle, first cleaning up and down the house.

Gu Raniang took the thread to Gu Chuhan, and Mrs. Gu made a connection overnight, and brought it to Jinxiufang before Xiaonian.They still owe the proprietress money for materials.

The proprietress Hong Yu saw Gu Raniang and Mrs. Gu coming, and knew that Gu Raniang had redeemed herself, "Jiulang didn't come!"

Mrs. Gu explained, "Jiulang's leg injury hasn't healed yet, so there was nothing he could do about it before. We owe the money to the proprietress, and we can't pay it right now, so let's pay the proprietress the money first!"

Hong Yu glanced at the feet of the two of them, they were stained with dirt, and she might have walked, "Forget about the cost of labor and materials before, Mrs. Qin liked the clothes, and asked me to make two more sets, and it was also the business you helped me with. I’ve paid you for the dumplings, and it’s almost Chinese New Year, so you can also cut some meat and go home to make dumplings!” He said and called the little apprentices over.

Mrs. Gu pushed no, "I can't, I can't! It's the proprietress who helped us a lot! It's a kindness to us! How can I ask for the proprietress' money!"

"Just take it! We will cooperate in the future!" Hong Yu asked her not to be polite, she first had to see how capable Gu Jiulang was and how many things he could make, and then how to win him over!
Mrs. Gu thanked her again and again. With the money she sold, she bought white noodles, cut the meat, bought cabbage, potatoes, sweet potatoes and turnips, and a bunch of cheap vegetables to take home. "This is enough for us to eat until February!"

Gu Chuhan looked at the basket of vegetables, and saw that it was too much. It would take a month to eat, divided into each day, and the amount of each meal was five people, and each person only had two bites.Seeing Mrs. Gu and Gu Raniang arranging meals before and after the Chinese New Year, she didn't say anything.

On Xiaonian's day, Mrs. Gu and Gu Raniang chopped a pot of cabbage stuffed with pork. There was more cabbage and less meat.The noodles are white noodles, made with dumplings and boiled, and they are white and fat.

One bowl per person, brought to the table, is a family's New Year's meal.

Although I said I didn't expect it, but it was already noon, and there was no movement from the few houses over there, let alone filial piety, and Mrs. Gu felt uncomfortable after all.

"Grandma!?" Gu Qilang shouted from the door.

When Mrs. Gu heard this, her heart flickered, "It's Qilang?"

Gu Qilang was the only one who entered the door, and he was empty-handed.

"Ah! Grandma, are you making dumplings? What stuffing?" Gu Qilang glanced into the bowl as soon as he entered.

Gu Pozi's heart sank, "Cabbage meat."

Gu Qilang doesn't like cabbage the most, especially cabbage dumplings, but he wants to know how much meat is mixed in, "I'll try it! I haven't eaten cabbage dumplings yet!"

He wanted to eat, but Mrs. Gu had to give him chopsticks.

Gu Qilang took one from her bowl and just took a bite, "It's unpalatable! It's all vegetables!"

"Don't eat it if it tastes bad!" Gu Pozi pursed her lips.

Gu Qilang saw that there was no food on their table, it was still the rotten wooden table, with a few bowls of dumplings, but the stuffing inside was cabbage, and the meat was as light as meat, "I don't want to eat it! I'm leaving!"

The door slammed shut, and the joy of the family was immediately discounted.

Gu Chuhan is also a person who likes to eat dumplings. He has been eating pigs for the past two months. He will hug the dumplings and take a bite, "Mmm! It's delicious! I'm finally free from the chaff! Delicious!"

Seeing that she really buried all her heart in the dumpling bowl, Mrs. Gu laughed again, "Don't worry, we will still make dumplings for Chinese New Year! There are also white noodles!"

"Yeah!" Gu Chuhan nodded with a smile, buried his head and continued to eat, "And ah! This cabbage is a hundred fortunes! Eat more, we will be rich!"

Seeing her eating so happily, her cheeks puffed up, her fair and delicate face suddenly extremely cute, Gu Raniang, Gu Shilang, and Gu Ruoniang all laughed too.

After the small year, it is the big year.Even if the poor people in the countryside, the New Year's Eve is also lively, all kinds of food that they usually can't eat, and they are reluctant to eat.

Mrs. Gu was also preparing to make some candies for the children in the family. She was busy with her work when Lian came over, "Mother! I'm here to discuss about visiting relatives this year!" A few of them naturally have wine and meat!If you come to this house... I'm afraid you can only eat mixed noodles and mixed rice!When the time comes she...
