Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth
Chapter 7 He was flattered
Normally, if he had something delicious, he would try to save it for Haoer and his sister. He was a little annoyed that he had just eaten both white steamed buns. He should have left one for them.
Thinking about this, Gu Yan patted his head again. Oh, I feel a little stupid after the series of excitement today. The two little guys went to my great uncle's house in the next county with my second uncle to celebrate his birthday. I don't know when they will be back.
However, Princess Gu seemed to have said that she would come to call him for dinner? Would she really come to call him for dinner? If something like this happened in the past, Second Aunt would definitely not forgive him. Why would she give him food and even hire a doctor for him?
I remember that last year, the little princess fell down while playing on the ice with the villagers. He happened to pass by nearby and was locked up in the woodshed when he came back. He was shivering with cold in the winter. The next day, it was his second uncle who saw that he was almost frozen silly, and he and his two cousins persuaded his second aunt to release him. However, his food was severely deducted throughout the winter, and he only had one meal a day, so that hunger became the norm.
Now the 15-year-old boy is skinny and has little flesh on his body. He is much shorter than his peers. His eyes, which should have been bright and shining, are now misty, as if covered with a layer of dust.
Gu Yan lay on the bed, and fell asleep exhausted with a myriad of thoughts in his mind. The difference was that this time there was a faint smile on his lips.
Knock, knock, knock, knock. "Brother Gu Yan, Brother Gu Yan, are you awake? The meal is ready. Brother Gu Yan..."
As the knock on the door sounded, the soft and tender voice of a young girl was heard from outside, as sweet as an oriole.
Gu Yan woke up from his dream. The knocking on the door was quiet for a moment. Not long after, the door opened with a creaky sound, and a burst of brisk footsteps came, "Brother Gu Yan, wake up, it's time for dinner..."
"Gu... Qingzhi?" Gu Yan opened his sleepy eyes and saw a young lady in a pink skirt standing in front of his bed. She had bright eyes, white teeth, snow-white skin, and a pair of big black eyes under long feathery eyelashes that were staring at him without blinking, with a bright smile on her lips.
It's strange to say, although they are all children from the same village, Gu Qingzhi is so different from others. She is as beautiful, dazzling and unattainable as a fairy from heaven. In time, she will definitely become a stunning beauty.
What made Gu Yan feel most unbelievable was that this cousin who used to want to stay away from him not only brought him food today, but also came to his room twice and even called him to eat. Gu Yan's mood was so up and down that it could not be described.
Did she take the wrong medicine? Is there some bigger plot? But, what else can anyone plot against me now? Gu Yan thought bitterly.
A white, tender little hand waved in front of his eyes, and Gu Qingzhi urged cheerfully, "Brother Gu Yan, stop being in a daze. My mother made chicken soup for us to nourish our bodies. Come out and eat!" After saying that, Gu Qingzhi turned around and ran out.
The food her mother cooked smelled so good. The days of famine had lasted too long, and now she felt extremely hungry whenever she smelled the aroma of food.
On the other hand, she really couldn't face Gu Yan's clean and clear eyes. Well, she should give her some time to adapt to the fact that she was an idiot.
It was like she had become a completely different person. Gu Yan stared at her back and thought silently.
He was curious and puzzled.
Gu Yan supported himself and slowly stood up, lifted the quilt and leaned against the head of the bed to rest for a while, then slowly moved off the bed and tried to move his feet. Fortunately, he felt much better after applying the medicine, and the piercing pain had been relieved a lot.
However, I have endured worse pain before, so why should I be so pretentious about this?
The dinner was indeed rich.
In fact, people in Da Qi used to eat only two meals a day, but with the improvement of economic conditions and the opening of the market, people gradually got used to three meals a day, that is, breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Of course, some families in difficult circumstances still retain the habit of eating two meals a day.
Of course, the Gu family had several generations of scholars, so their conditions were among the best in the village, and there were so many children growing up in the family, so the Gu family only had three meals a day.
Recently, Gu Xiucai Gu Cheng took the two brothers of the Gu family and the twin brother and sister to visit relatives. They will not be back for several days. Only Gu Wangshi, Gu Qingzhi and Gu Yan are left at home.
Gu Wang poured a bowl of chicken soup, thought for a moment, added a chicken leg, and placed it in front of Gu Yan, "I heard from Zhizhi that you carried her out of the trap, you can eat this."
Gu Wang's voice was indifferent. She had always disliked this young boy. Even though he had saved her daughter, she couldn't say thank you. She felt awkward.
It was a rare day to have rice to eat, and suddenly a bowl of soup appeared in front of Gu Yan who was eating hard. He looked up in surprise, "Second Aunt?" What happened today? First it was Princess Gu, and now Second Aunt is like this again?
Gu Yan suddenly felt flattered.
He had been looked down upon many times in the past few years, and this was the first time he had received such serious care as today. He had even forgotten that this was the most normal day for him a few years ago.
The Gu family lives a much better life than most families in the village.
The Gu family is considered a family of scholars. Their ancestor even produced a prefect. Not to mention the distant past, just take Gu Zhang and his two sons, all of whom passed the imperial examinations and became scholars. Over several generations, the family has accumulated several acres of fertile land, which can collect a lot of rent every year, and the family is very wealthy.
However, because the Gu family's father and son had accidents one after another in the past few years, the family's expenses were very high at one time, almost exhausting the family's assets. Even the family's fertile land shrank rapidly, and now there are only more than 20 acres left, and the income has dropped sharply.
Gu Cheng, the second son of the Gu family, used to be a teacher in the county academy, but he has been idle at home since he injured his leg a few years ago. He only copied books for the county bookstore from time to time to supplement his family income.
Gu Wangshi was good at embroidery and could earn a lot of money every month.
However, most of the income from Gu Wang's embroidery was spent on Gu Qingzhi.
Because of this, the Gu family could not eat white rice every day as they pleased. Most of the time, they had whole-grain porridge with coarse-grain steamed buns.
Even so, life is much better than that of most families in the village.
Especially for Gu Yan, he would be satisfied if he could eat only 3% full every day.
Today there were white flour buns and rice, stewed potatoes with pork belly, and stir-fried seasonal vegetables on the table. It was such a rich meal, but now Second Aunt even brought him a bowl of chicken soup and gave him the chicken leg that was usually given to the little princess. He hesitated and wondered if this soup was poisonous.
Could it be that because Second Uncle is not at home, Second Aunt finally doesn't want to tolerate him anymore and simply wants to poison him with a bowl of chicken soup?
