Jiaohua Growth Guide [Rebirth]

Compared with the weather in the first half of the month, the weather in the second half of the month is much better. After the snow melts, it is either cloudy or sunny, and the ground is dry. In the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, the town is still full of people.

On this day, as soon as Gu Ci rushed to Old Man Xu's house to drive out the pigs that were going to be slaughtered that day, a guy from the restaurant hurried over and yelled at Gu Ci.

Seeing his fiery posture, Gu Ci was taken aback, thought something happened, and rushed to the black pig on the wide bench without hesitation, and hurried out of the shed, "Shuanzi, what happened?" gone?"

"The shopkeeper asked me to inform you that someone is coming to your house, and I want you to go back quickly."

"Oh, your posture that is about to collapse today scared us all." The third son followed Gu Cilai to help every day for the past few days, seeing Shuanzi running out of breath, He was also worried, after hearing Shuanzi's words, his relieved expression was even more exaggerated than Gu Ci.

Shuanzi was dull-tempered, and when he was told by the third son, he smirked awkwardly twice, scratched his head and said stupidly: "The shopkeeper told me to hurry up, so I ran all the way here."

For Gu Ci, it's a good thing if nothing happens, but he doesn't know who will come to him at the end of the year, "The shopkeeper told you, who is in my family?"

"Not really." Shuanzi was a little embarrassed, "The shopkeeper was in a hurry, and I didn't think to ask. The shopkeeper told you to go back and say hello first, just to make it hard for you to get up an hour early tomorrow and come to slaughter pigs early in the morning." .”

When someone came to the house, he naturally wanted to say hello, but Gu Ci felt a little sorry when he thought that the old man Xu had already made all the preparations. He looked back at him, "Uncle Xu, then...today..."

"Go back, go back." Old man Xu waved at her impatiently, "I'm almost in good health, I'll work hard later, little three, help me out."

Gu Ci smiled. The old man Xu's spirit has obviously improved a lot recently, but he didn't open his mouth, and Gu Ci didn't take the initiative. He earned 250 Wen in one afternoon. This salary is too attractive. You can't be too polite, "Okay, then I'll go back first."

"Wait a minute." The old man Xu also came out of the arbor, "The restaurant's rule in the past is to open until 28, and you still have to come over tomorrow."

"Huh?" Gu Ci was stunned for a moment, "That's no need..."

"What are you talking about?" Old man Xu interrupted her impatiently, "Come as soon as you are told, and when your shopkeeper is not busy, I will go and tell him that next year you will follow me to butcher pigs, and I will I asked about your situation, the third son, and for the little money you worked so hard to earn in the restaurant, you might as well kill pigs with me."

"..." Gu Ci was really taken aback. After getting along these days, the old man's attitude towards her has always been lukewarm. She thought that the old man looked down on her because she was a girl.

Gu Ci remained in a daze and remained silent, the old man Xu's complexion became more and more ugly, the young man standing next to Gu Ci was in a hurry, secretly tugged at her sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Sister Gu, don't thank Uncle Xu yet. You don't know how many people in our town want to follow Uncle Xu to butcher pigs, but they didn't follow him for long before he drove them away..."

"Thank you, Uncle Xu." Hearing the voice of the third son, Gu Ci quickly came to his senses, "If Uncle Xu doesn't dislike it, it will be my honor."

Gu Ci never thought about being a butcher, but now seeing how much the butcher earns, she is still a little tempted.

"Although she's a girl, she doesn't lose to a man when it comes to things." Gu Ci responded, and the old man Xu's expression relaxed, "Then let's talk about it first."

Gu Ci smiled and nodded, "Then I'll come back tomorrow. Uncle Xu, I'll hurry back today."

"Hurry up, it's not good to keep your relatives waiting for a long time." Old man Xu waved his hand, and went straight into the arbor, calling the young man in as well.

Gu Ci didn't delay too much, and hurried home after saying hello.

Running all the way into the alley, the courtyard door was ajar, Gu Ci opened the door and saw his aunt, surprised and happy, "Auntie, why didn't you tell me in advance why you came here."

"You girl, you're ashamed to say it. I've been in the town for so long, and I haven't sent someone to send a letter to the family to report that I'm safe." Seeing her sweating, He knew that she must be in a hurry, and urged her again. She: "Don't rush to chat with us, just go and wipe off your sweat, look at this head of sweat."

Gu Ci nodded, and saw the three aunts sitting dryly in the yard. She had been in the house for a while, but she didn't see the little girl's shadow. When she walked to the stove house, she looked back at the main room, "Where is Jiaojiao?" ?”

"The shop was really busy, and we were brought into the room for a while, and then we were hurriedly called away." He didn't think much, and answered casually.

"Too busy?" Gu Ci paused, then poked his head out of the kitchen, "What shop is too busy?"

Seeing her puzzled expression, He Shi reacted, "Eldest sister, you don't know that Jiao girl is helping in the pastry shop at all, do you?"

Gu Ci nodded, she really didn't know about it, "She hasn't told me yet."

"It seems that you are really busy." Mrs. Hua also interjected, "Your girl is known as the pastry beauty of Dongxiang. You are busy in the town all day long, and you don't know."

Gu Ci was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a moment, lowered his eyes, and hurried inside to wash his face, and when he came out, he smiled and beckoned the three aunts to sit in the room, "I don't know if the three aunts came from afar. Shiyuan welcomes you in front, but the hospitality is not good enough, it is really negligent, a few aunts hurry up and enter the house for tea."

"Hey, it's different when you're in town, look at the tone of your voice." He Shi snorted, walked over and gently tugged at Gu Ci's hair, "If you want to talk to us about birthright in the future, I'll I'm going to be angry, you are a few years older than the charming girl, and you don't see it clearly, the little girl is not polite to us at all, and after a few greetings, let us treat the house as our own and leave."

"That girl..." Gu Ci muttered, seeing a lot of snacks on the table in the room, he didn't take any more, and poured hot tea for several people again, "The restaurant is too busy recently, Jiaojiao was alone at home during the day, so I didn't feel at ease, so I asked her to go to Aunt Bangen's house to find a companion to play with, but I didn't expect her to find a job for herself."

"That's true. I think this alley is also very chaotic. When we came here, we saw drunk men flirting with women. The little girl's delicate flowers are just about to bloom. Let her be alone during the day." It's not safe to be at home." He Shi nodded in agreement, she really treated the little girl as a half-daughter, "Also, it's really hard to find your place, although you told us the address, but If your third sister-in-law hadn't seen the little girl selling cakes with sharp eyes, maybe your two aunts and I might not be able to find you today."

Gu Ci smiled, "It's also because I didn't think carefully. After I settled down, I should invite my aunt to have a good meal at home. It's just that I haven't spared the time. That's why I've delayed until now. I even gave grandpa a New Year's gift. There's no time to..."

"That's right, you just moved to the town this year, and it's the best gift for us to live your life in peace." No matter whether Gu Ci's words are sincere or not, He's Tired and crooked.

"Your aunt is right." Yang picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, "We originally planned to come and see you three brothers and sisters after the autumn harvest, but God is not beautiful this year. It’s the end of November when the grain is put into the warehouse, and it’s snowing and raining again when I’m free, and now it’s here…”

It's been a long time since Gu Ci and his aunts met each other. Once he sat down, he told me one sentence at a time. The time passed quickly. Seeing that the aunts were not in a hurry, Gu Ci guessed that they were planning to stay. Those who came down for the night waited until Ah Bao came back before saying that they were going to prepare dinner.

"You can just prepare something." Yang didn't refuse, asked Abao a few words about homework, and then turned around and said: "Today we have three more aunts who can eat. Anyway, we are fine when we are idle. Let's help you cook together."

"Third aunt is underestimating me?" Gu Ci hurriedly stopped her, not allowing her to follow into the stove house, "You, it's just like drinking tea in the house with the other two aunts, and taste it seriously. my craft."

Gu Ci stopped firmly, and He Shi, who was walking behind, simply sat down at the table again and took a handful of melon seeds, "Third siblings, you just follow the eldest sister, we haven't had a good time at home, but today we are with the eldest sister." I have enjoyed the life of an official wife here."

The sister-in-law was joking like this, and Yang Shi also turned back, "That's right."

After chatting about the family life for a while, Gu Ci also got closer to a few aunts, and he didn't talk so much, and joked with a smile: "Since my aunts have given me such a high hat, then if I don't You have taken care of me, and you will live up to the expectations of a few aunts."

The three sisters-in-law of the He family saw that A Bao still had homework to do, and they were all interested. They each grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds, and stood outside to chat, chatting with Gu Ci from the stove house from time to time, and let A Bao stay in the room. do your homework.

It wasn't until dark that little pastry Xi Shi came back bouncing back with two boxes of pastries.

Gu Ci was carrying food from the stove to the main room. When he saw her, he greeted her calmly: "Hey, our little pastry Xishi is back?"

The little girl curled her lips, she knew she couldn't hide this matter, but she didn't want to hide it, if her sister didn't find out, it's because her sister didn't care about her. In the past few days, she gave Chunxiao sister-in-law Selling cakes made Chunxiao's sister-in-law's cakes sell out every day.

"Ah, Jiao girl is back." He heard the movement inside, and hurried out to greet her, touched the little girl's red face, and then squeezed her little hand, "Come in quickly, the temperature is low at night." , look at this little hand, it's as cold as ice."

"Okay." The little girl replied sweetly, then glanced at Gu Ci again, as if on purpose, "Auntie still loves me the most."

"Our little girl is my aunt's caring little padded jacket. If you don't love me, who do you love?" He shi liked the sweet mouth of the little girl, rubbed her hands, and dragged her into the house.

"Come on, our little pastry Xishi has worked hard, please sit here." Since Sanmei got the little girl's guidance, her embroidery work has become more and more exquisite. Shopkeeper Zhao began to bring home large pieces of embroidery. He didn't dare to talk casually about people who are obscene, and the second room got the old lady's eyes more and more. Hua's gratitude to the little girl from the bottom of his heart, seeing her coming in, he even stood up to greet her.

"Second aunt, sit down." The little girl waved her hand and sat down next to He Shi.

Ah Bao was sitting upright at the side, listening to their words, he couldn't help but be puzzled, "Sister Jiaojiao, why did Second Aunt call you a little pastry beauty?"

"Your elder sister Jiaojiao, you are amazing. She is selling pastries behind our backs." Gu Ci moved the dishes on the table, put the dishes in his hand, and turned to look at the little girl who was secretly making faces. The girl glanced.

In front of several aunts, the little girl didn't dare to show her temper, she was caught by Gu Ci, and she quickly pretended to be serious, "Sister-in-law Chunxiao is so kind to us, she is too busy these days, originally she just asked me to help collect Money, who would have thought that once I entered the shop, it would become a movable type signboard.”

"I'm so proud of you." Gu Ci originally got up and was about to go out, but when he heard the little girl's last words, he couldn't hold back, turned back and poked her on the forehead, "You're so thick-skinned that you still have a movable type signboard." Put gold on your face."

The little girl was not convinced, "It's not me who said that, it was Chunxiao's sister-in-law who said that since I came to help in the shop, the pastries in her shop have been sold for three days in a day."

"Our little girl is really amazing." He Shi looked at her airy appearance, not only didn't feel that the little girl was out of tune, but felt that she was cute, and stroked her braid, "Your sister, She is just afraid that you will be too powerful, and she will be reluctant to fly away in the future."

"Then I'm amazing, and I'm also my sister's Jiaojiao." The little girl pursed her lips, taking it for granted.

Sister Jiaojiao.

These words were so provocative, Gu Ci moved his lips, and went to the stove to get food. When he came back, he saw that the little girl was still happily telling people about the fun of selling cakes. She couldn't help but also smiled. "Don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep, eat first."

The little girl reluctantly shut up, but after working in the shop all afternoon, she was really hungry.

After dinner, Gu Ci asked the little girl to pour water for the three aunts to wipe their faces and feet, and then went to make a new bed by himself.

The layout of this house is apart from the main room for eating, two rooms in the east wing, a room in the west wing connected to the big stove room, and two rooms in the east wing.On weekdays, Ah Bao lives in the room in the west wing, while Gu Ci and the little girl live in the east wing.

The bed in the extra room was too small to fit three people. After Gu Ci made up the bed, he asked the three aunts to sleep in the room where she usually slept with the little girl.

The little girl didn't sleep very well. This time she slept on a small bed and kicked the wall after rolling around twice. She wasn't used to it at all, and she just turned left and right there.

"Recognize the bed?" Gu Ci turned his head to look at her, and pinched the corner of her back for her, "It's cold at night, put the quilt on."

The little girl gave a muffled hum, then turned around and burrowed into Gu Ci's arms again, "The bed is too small, it's uncomfortable to kick the wall when you turn it around."

"Let you move around..."

As soon as Gu Ci finished speaking, the little girl pushed her to lie down flat, and then lay down arrogantly, "Sister hugs me to sleep like this, I'm sure I won't move around."

The little girl was a little heavy now, and she was suddenly pressed on her body. Gu Ci was still a little bored. After a while, he finally recovered, and gently pushed her, "I haven't settled with you for selling pastries behind my back." Yes, I'm ashamed to let me sleep with you in my arms."

"Calculate, you do the math." The little girl avoids the important and ignores the trivial, "Sister-in-law Chunxiao said that I am a little lucky star. Because my business is good, the shop calculates my wages based on the pastries sold. Today I earned a tael of silver plus three hundred Wen After all, Chunxiao's sister-in-law owes me almost seven taels of wages."

Thinking of her sister's hard work for a few months to earn such a little money, the little girl felt that she was really a capable daughter-in-law. Not only was she beautiful, but she could also earn money to support the family. Great."

Although Gu Ci was not planning to settle accounts like this, he was stunned by the seven taels of silver in the mouth of the little girl: "...you have only been selling pastries for a few days? Are you only seven taels?"

"It's been almost seven days. I was afraid of being discovered by you. I went home early, otherwise it would have been seven taels. Chunxiao's sister-in-law said that their shop opened until 29. I thought I would definitely earn ten taels. I still want to celebrate the New Year I'll give you a big red envelope with this money, but I met three aunts today, and I can't even give you any surprises..."

Gu Ci: "..."

Hehehe, she has worked so hard for so long, but she still hasn't earned enough taels. Her daughter-in-law earned it casually. The surprise was too much, and it turned into a big scare, okay?
