Chapter 103 Grandpa's Visit
On a day without warning, my grandfather visited to see their family.

Guo Hongjing just came home and ate the fruit that her father bought outside. The fruits in her house are all discounted and others are unwilling to buy.For the rest of the fruit, Guo Hongjing carefully selected some good grapes and put them in a bowl, ready to wash them and start a happy life.

"Children, come out soon. Grandpa is here." Grandpa came here once before. It happened several years ago. Guo Hongjing still remembers his appearance. Grandpa used to be a primary school teacher.

They can speak German. At that time, the three of them were learning German. Grandpa said several words, but Guo Hongjing couldn’t remember them. Grandpa was a man of culture, but he didn’t let his mother study. In his opinion, it’s okay for women to study. usefulness.

One day in the future, they will also get married, so the five daughters of the grandfather's family don't study much, and they have been doing farm work at home. Grandma doesn't like doing housework at all. My mother often mentioned this matter.

Grandpa has many wrinkles on his face and has a standard sallow skin.When he speaks, he will have a kind smile. He wears a military green hat with very little hair, and the hair is exposed, very little, very messy, not completely white, but still a little black.

Guo Hongjing didn't quite believe that such a kind grandfather had done such an outrageous thing.Lie down next to the well and tell the story of Guo Hongjing's childhood. When Guo Hongjing was only a month old, he would eat white dry rice. Guo Hongjing used to like to eat rice with rice in his hometown.

Grind the corn into a few small pieces like powder, and then put it in the rice and cook it together.The steamed rice is distinct and saturated.Guo Hongjing thought of this taste, there used to be such a meal at Xiaoyaomei's house.

The taste is really good. Every night, the Guo family will make a very rich meal.A soup is necessary. Guo Hongjing likes to eat the cabbage in the soup the most. Dip the cabbage in the water and wrap it with the rice. Put it in your mouth and eat it. The rice soaked in the soup is relatively soft.

After one bite, there is a fragrance of green vegetables in the mouth, and the chili dipped in water adds to its spicy taste.The taste is amazing after eating. You can eat two bowls of this vegetable with soup and rice every day.

Sometimes it tastes even better with some pickles or stewed vegetables. "This taste is really delicious." The unique pickled bean rice in Guizhou tastes very good when dipped in chili.Basically, people in Guizhou eat pickled cabbage, beans and rice every day.

Guo Hongjing made several jars of sauerkraut at home, and his grandfather ate them while talking to them. Guo Hongjing still remembered what his grandfather said before, that the ancestors of the grandfather's family were in business, and the business was still very large.

At that time, it was considered a famous family. Later, something happened in the family and they were seized, and their family fell into a slump. Presumably, the grandfather used to force the fifth uncle to go to school with a stick, and he probably wanted to revive the family business. Bar.

But the fifth uncle just doesn’t live up to it, no matter how hard he fights, he doesn’t want to go to school, and the same history is repeating now, the son of the fifth uncle’s family, no matter how the fifth uncle persuades him, how he beats him.He still doesn't like studying, even to the point of loathing learning.

The distance between their family and the fifth uncle's house is relatively close, and the two families often visit each other. Guo Hongjing also often goes to the fifth uncle's house to sleep with the fifth aunt, and Guo Tingyu sleeps with his cousin.

Guo Hongjing once asked Chen Jing why he didn't like studying, and wouldn't he need to study to find a good job in the future?
She was surprised by her cousin's answer, "I just don't like studying. I get annoyed when I study. Why should I study? I can't do anything after studying. Studying is too rogue. Let's talk about it later."

Chen Jing's status in the family is very low, even worse than her. Not only does he have to do a lot of things, but if he can't do it well, the irritable fifth uncle will directly beat him hard.Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt treat foreign guests very warmly and gently.

She really couldn't figure out why they treated their own son like this. Both of them liked gambling very much. Once they had money, they would go to the nearby mahjong table and start playing as a couple.

They didn't want to go home until they had lost all their pennies. If they hadn't cooked yet, they would start beating their cousin again.After going there several times, Guo Hongjing stopped going to their house.

Both husband and wife are very hospitable, and people at home often come to drink.Chen Jing's temperament is weak and weak, as if she has a see-through attitude towards everything, what Guo Hongjing can't understand the most.Both of these couples wanted a daughter, and the most mentioned thing in their mouths was to have an obedient daughter in the future.Isn't he obedient?
All of this is very strange. Because Xiao Jing has lived at home for many years, his skin is very white, which is probably inherited. He is very short, and the fifth uncle is also very short, only 1.6 meters five look.Only slightly taller than Guo Hongjing.

Xiao Jing is naturally not as tall as Guo Hongjing, he is only one year younger than Guo Hongjing, and he is not as tall as Guo Tingyu.

The fifth uncle often borrowed money from Guo's family, and he didn't borrow much each time. After Guo's father had a drink with him, he borrowed money directly.Once, they came again, and Guo Hongjing already knew why they came.Probably for borrowing money.

"Xiao Jing, your name is similar to my son's name. Do you know why you came to my house?" After eating for a long time, he asked Guo Hongjing.

"Go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you are here to borrow money." His face changed instantly, and he recovered in a moment.

"You're so smart to know that I'm here to borrow money. Look, brother-in-law." The two men started a conversation. When Xiao Jing came to his house, he ate a lot of food. eat.

Seeing how fast they were picking vegetables, Xiao Jing followed suit and ate a lot of food in a short while.Guo Hongjing had seen Xiaojing eating at home, no matter whether the food was good or not, he would only eat a little.

No matter how the five uncles and aunts beat and scolded, or what they said, although he didn't speak, he would never compromise on things he was unwilling to compromise.This is his bottom line.Both Guo Hongjing and his fifth uncle and aunt knew that the more they wanted him to change, he would do whatever he wanted.

Even if he is punched and kicked, he will not change at all, even if he is beaten and cried, he will not compromise.At this time, Uncle Wu praised while beating: "It's really okay to be stubborn, you are not afraid of being beaten to death, and you have the demeanor of Lao Tzu."

He said he wanted him to study hard, but he still bought a lot of cartoon discs at home. Many of the cartoon discs were worn out, and he watched them many times. He still had games that were unlikely to exist in that era at home. disc.

The TV in his home can also be plugged in to play games with a game controller, and Xiao Jing often plays games.
