Chapter 57 Finally Back Home
The moment the girl gained trust, her stubborn little face could no longer hold back tears.
Gu Chengan wanted to reach out and wipe away her tears, but his little hand stopped in mid-air, at a loss.
Shen Lianxin pulled her over and wiped her tears.
"Auntie knows you have been wronged, don't cry." Shen Lianxin felt sorry for the little girl. They were the same age, but had different lives. A child without a mother is like a weed.
"Auntie!" Xiaohui threw herself into Shen Lian's arms. At this moment, she felt the warmth and care of a mother.
He patted her on the back and gave Gu Chengan a wink.
"Okay, stop crying. Go wash your hands with Xiao An and have some snacks together."
Gu Chengan took Xiaohui to wash their hands and joined the group eating snacks.
Finally having some free time, Shen Lianxin curled up in a chair, covered herself with a thin blanket, and took a nap.
The summer breeze brought a hint of coolness, and when Shen Lianxin woke up, Xiaohui was gone.
Gu Cheng'an could see that he was obviously disappointed. After asking, he found out that Xiaohui's family knew that Shen Lianxin had compensated for the eggs, and Aunt Zhao would no longer cause trouble, so someone came to take Xiaohui back home.
The little girl can work, and if she grows up, she can be sold for money. In short, I have to take her back if I don’t lose money.
Shen Lianxin felt sad when she heard this, but there was nothing she could do. After all, the man still had his biological father and stepmother, and she couldn't do anything more.
The children had some snacks, but it was getting late and they were a little hungry.
Gu Chengxin cooked rice in the kitchen and finished eating the dishes left by Shen Lianxin. In addition to studying during the day, they would take some time out to go to the mountains to dig some wild vegetables and mushrooms.
When Shen Lianxin entered the kitchen, she saw Gu Chengxin cooking mushroom soup.
Seeing Shen Lianxin coming in, Gu Chengxin smiled and said, "Mom, the meal will be ready soon."
When she was away, the children ate these. Although it was very good compared to most families in the village, Shen Lianxin still felt a little uncomfortable.
He smiled and touched Gu Chengxin's head, opened the rice jar, and saw that half of the rice had gone in. Gu Chengxin became nervous.
He followed his mother's instructions and ate three meals a day, and made sure his younger brothers and sisters were well fed. This was very inefficient for four half-grown children, who mainly ate rice as their staple food.
Did they eat too much? Would his mother blame him?
Shen Lianxin was also surprised at the amount of rice consumed. In the past, in modern life, a bag of 100 kilograms of rice would last a family of three for almost a year. Of course, they did not eat at home every meal, but often went to restaurants or ordered takeout, and also ate some pasta, such as steamed buns, dumplings, and noodles. So the rice was not consumed quickly.
But there is a shortage of supplies here, and the food is monotonous. There is nothing else to eat except rice. Moreover, there are three boys and a little girl. As the saying goes, the little brats can eat their father out of house and land.
It's really Fermi. Shen Lianxin didn't notice the change in Gu Chengxin's expression, and hurriedly bought 20 kilograms of white rice from the space mall to fill it in.
Seeing his mother take out a bag of rice from the backpack and pour it into the rice jar like a magic trick, Gu Chengxin grinned.
"Mom, so much rice?"
Shen Lianxin touched his head and said, "It's all rice. You need to eat more as you grow."
Shen Lianxin was afraid that the children would be afraid to eat because there was not much rice at home.
When Gu Chengxin saw that Shen Lianxin didn't mind that they ate so much and even brought back so much rice, his nervous heart finally relaxed.
The mushroom soup made by Gu Chengxin is ready and served in a large bowl.
Shen Lianxin also bought some pork belly and garlic shoots in the mall, washed and cut them, heated oil in a pan, and stir-fried the garlic shoots and meat together. The garlic shoots were not easy to absorb the flavor, so they needed to be stir-fried for a while longer. She also added soy sauce and chicken essence, sprinkled a little thirteen spices, and if they were dry, added a little water. Stir-fry quickly over high heat, and soon a large plate of fragrant garlic shoots and meat was ready.
Bring it out and serve some food to the children.
The children's eyes were shining and they were extremely happy.
"Mom, this smells so good!"
"Mom, I am craving the food you cook. It smells so good."
"The food my mother cooks is the most delicious."
Shen Lianxin felt extremely comfortable being flattered by several kids.
"Eat quickly!"
They devoured the meal in no time and finally finished all the soup and rice.
Shen Lianxin was also satisfied with the meal. The food in the epidemic area was not good. Although she could buy some bread and snacks from the space, cold food was never as comfortable as hot and fragrant meals.
As it was getting dark, several children were doing horse stance in the yard, and Gu Chengan was leading them in boxing in an extremely serious manner.
Shen Lianxin continued to curl up in the rocking chair and look at the stars. The starry sky at the foot of the mountain was particularly beautiful. She liked this quiet, warm and slow life.
But tranquility is always short-lived, and people cannot live just for themselves. She could stay here and enjoy life all her life, but she has four children who have not seen the outside world, so it is not possible for them to just stay in the mountains.
Even if it is to return to nature, one must see the prosperity of the world before one can truly appreciate the beauty of this tranquility.
This time the plague was brought under control at the fastest speed in history. The imperial court was shocked and rewarded the Yuncheng County Magistrate, who was promoted to the position of a provincial governor.
Shen Lianxin made great contributions, but at Shen Lianxin's own request, the work was kept low-key and not reported to the court.
The panic caused by the plague dissipated, and Yuncheng was unsealed, becoming more prosperous than before. Because of this incident, Yuncheng became famous and was praised by some scholars as "the city that won the epidemic."
Of course Shen Lianxin would not forget that she still had her shop and people in Yuncheng.
The next morning, Shen Lianxin prepared to go to Yuncheng with her four children.
This time, I went there to arrange for the opening of the store. Also, during this time at home, the children have learned basic arithmetic and reading, and I think it is time to send them to academy to formally receive the cultural baptism of this era.
All three boys had to go to school, and the only little one, Zhen, couldn't be left at home alone, so I took them all with me.
Uncle Huang, the driver, greeted Shen Lianxin enthusiastically when he saw her. "Hunter, are you and your whole family coming to the city today? You brought your children with you."
Shen Lianxin handed over five copper coins and responded with a smile, "Yes, I wanted to send the older one to the academy to learn more about him. I was worried about the younger one at home, so I took them all with me."
There was a gleam of envy in Huang Bo's eyes. This hunter was capable and could go to the city to make money. He also heard that it was her contribution that brought the plague under control so quickly this time. The whole community should be grateful to her.
A few more aunties came over and said, "Wow, there are so many people riding the bus today! Is there any space left?"
Huang Bo pointed to the side of Shen Lianxin and said, "There is still one spot left. Who of you wants to go?"
This ox cart is big enough for 6 people, and Shen Lianxin's family occupies 5 spaces.
Aunt Li and Aunt Liu squeezed up, "If we squeeze together, we can all sit down."
Gu Chengzhen was small and was pushed to the side.
Although Shen Lianxin's child was young, she still paid a penny, so Uncle Huang was about to chase her away.
Shen Lianxin said, "Hold Xiaozhen up. It won't be a problem if we squeeze in one more person."
Naturally, Uncle Huang wanted to earn more money by recruiting one more person, but he couldn't say that unless Shen Lianxin spoke up.
Aunt Li and Aunt Liu both nodded gratefully to Shen Lianxin.
