At the end of the unitary hour, after the golden crow sinking in the west sank into the opposite mountain with a whimper, the dusk began to devour the last light unscrupulously.

Jiaojiao held a piece of pastry and sat under the big camphor tree, sipping it with a very serious expression.The little girl woke up after less than half an hour of sleep, still silent, following behind Gu Ci like a follower.

Gu Ci felt that the stove was stuffy, so he gave her and A Bao some cakes and asked them to sit outside under the big camphor tree to enjoy the cool air.

The big camphor tree is a little to the north of the gate of the small courtyard, across the low fence, facing the road to Shauguping outside.At this point, every household is harvesting millet at Shauguping.

Ah Bao stared at the people coming and going outside for a while, and then looked back at the millet he was drying at home. Seeing that Jiaojiao was still eating the pastry seriously, he got up and ran to the stove house with small steps.

"A Bao, what are you doing standing there? Cough cough..." As soon as he went, Gu Ci saw it, said a few words, was choked, coughed twice and went to see him again, "The stove is hot, and it's hot again." It's choking, go out and play with Jiaojiao."

Abao hesitated to speak, hesitated for two seconds before hesitating and saying: "Sister, I, my parents haven't come to collect the millet yet, can I help put the millet away?"

The oil was fried dry, Gu Ci poured some water into it, the sizzling sound split Abao's voice intermittently, Gu Ci couldn't hear clearly, "Huh? My sister didn't hear clearly just now."

Ah Bao felt a little embarrassed as he pressed his head, but he mustered up the courage to repeat what he had just said.

Gu Ci moved his lips, originally wanting A Bao to leave it alone, he knew that Liu Shi was a pushy temper, if she helped to collect it today, the millet left here would rely on her in the future.

However, Abao is different. She also hopes that her younger brother is a hardworking and down-to-earth person, "Go ahead, take as much as you can, don't be brave."

A Bao nodded, ran out, picked up the grain pushing board, and pushed the grains on the raft together.During the day, the sun is strong, and the millet has dried a lot in the afternoon, and it will make a sound of squeak when pushed.

Jiaojiao was attracted by the sound, she stared at Abao who was running around on the raft pushing the raft, she felt curious and amusing, she didn't blink her eyes.

Ah Bao saw Jiaojiao when he was wiping his sweat, and seeing her eager to try, he pursed his lips and smiled at her, "Sister Jiaojiao, do you want to come and try?"

Jiaojiao had never seen such a scene before, so she nodded, as if thinking of something, she walked to the raft and walked back.

Abao was full of doubts, "Sister Jiaojiao?"

Jiaojiao held back for a long time before saying the first thing she said after waking up: "Bad, Aunt Liu is bad, don't touch her things."

Seeing Jiaojiao opened her mouth, Ah Bao didn't pay attention to what she said, her eyes were smiling, she was as cute as a crescent moon, she threw the board, and ran towards the kitchen, "Sister, sister Jiaojiao just talked to you again I have spoken."

Gu Ci told Abao before that Jiaojiao was too frightened, and asked him to tease Jiaojiao more, so that people could talk, but unfortunately he was not very good at talking, just sitting outside and talking to Jiaojiao dryly, Jiaojiao ignored him.

"Really?" Gu Ci also laughed, took the pot aside, followed Abao out, "Jiaojiao."

When Jiaojiao saw Gu Ci, she also pursed her lips and smiled, her mouth moved, and it took a while for her to say "Sister".

"Hey." Gu Ci responded briskly, Jiaojiao is fine, she was very happy, walked over to hug her and kissed her side cheek, "Jiaojiao yell again."

"Sister." Jiaojiao blurted out this time.

The heart that Gu Ci was holding fell back into his belly completely, and he helped Jiaojiao wipe the pastry crumbs from her mouth, and then touched her stomach, "Are you hungry, my sister used the bones from the morning to stew some corn .”

Jiaojiao shook her head, "Not hungry."

"Then eat it later." Gu Ci stood up and looked at the sun-dried millet, only one bed of grain raft was not piled up. Let's move the small table to the courtyard with Jiaojiao, we are ready to have dinner."

"Okay." Ah Bao liked Gu Ci's cooking, and every time Gu Ci cooked before, he would eat an extra bowl.It's a pity that Liu's family thinks that Gu Ci's cooking is fuel-intensive, and the family members have to eat more. They think it's a waste of food, so they don't like Gu Ci's cooking.

Because Jiaojiao was frightened and Abao was there, Gu Ci used the japonica rice given to her by Aunt Six, and made a dish of braised pork with the meat sent by He's.

Jiaojiao and Abao are both at the age of growing their bodies, and they eat more food, and their appetites are better than usual. Gu Ci thought that Jiaojiao was so stupidly greedy at noon, so he only allowed them to eat a bowl of rice, and then parted ways. A bowl of soup was served to them, and another person gave them a soft-boiled pork ribs for them to gnaw on to digest their food. The pork ribs were stewed soft, and the meat on them fell off, just to let them gnaw on them to satisfy their hunger.

On the other side, when Gu Lao Er and Liu Shi returned home with the millet they had collected in the afternoon, Ma Lingling was sitting on the steps holding Fatty and crying.

"Girl Ling, what are you two brothers and sisters doing?" Gu Laoer was very strong, walking ahead with the millet. He was tired all day and was upset. I feel unlucky in my heart.

"Father..." Ma Lingling yelled in a nasal voice, seeing that Gu Er's face was not looking well, and her mother was still behind, so she bit her lip pitifully and sobbed, with a heartbroken expression on her face, as if she was about to lose her temper Yes, he hesitated for a long while before hesitating, "It's all my fault. I didn't take good care of Fatty, so he was bitten."

Say half of what you say and keep the other half. This skill, this pitiful trick of pretending to be obedient, after she came to the Gu family, she learned it without a teacher.

While Ma Lingling was talking, she secretly paid attention to Gu Laoer's face. Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Gu Laoer didn't care about picking the millet into the house, so he put it down on the spot, pulled the fat pier to look around, and when he saw There were scabbed teeth marks on Pang Dun's ears, and his face turned black instantly, "Who bit this?"

"Yes... yes..." Ma Lingling sobbed, and then carefully glanced at Gu's second son, "Father, let Fatty tell you. Anyway, don't tell me I'm not from the Gu family..."

These words are euphemistic and straightforward. Even Gu Laoer, who has no discernment, can hear something is wrong. However, he understands his eldest daughter's nature very well. Although she is not very pleasing, she will never act Those who bully the younger siblings are here.

Ma Lingling glanced at Gu Laoer's face while rubbing her tears, scoffed in her heart that he was biased, and then pinched Fatty peepingly.

Fat Dun burst into tears, "Father, the eldest sister bullied me and my elder sister, and the little girl bit me, you must avenge me..."

"Girl Ling, what's going on here? How could the elder sister and Jiao girl have no reason..."

"Okay, Gu Er Er, you still say that you are not partial?" Liu Shi followed behind, just in time to listen to the words that Fat Dun just said, furious, and did not feel tired, walking quickly Walking over, hearing Gu Laoer's words, he immediately exploded, threw the pole on his shoulders, and when he saw the place where Fatty was bitten at a close distance, he jumped up, "This damned one, thanks to her!" Be ruthless..."

"Mother..." Fat Dun saw that Mrs. Liu had come to support him, and howled again, crying heartbreakingly.

Liu Shi, who treats Fatty as if his eyeball hurts, feels that he has been greatly wronged, and keeps hugging his sweetheart, tears come as soon as he says it.

The mother and daughter cried for a long time, Liu Shi was the first to come back to his senses, seeing Gu Er Er frowning and standing aside silently, he poohed at him, wiped away his tears, and asked Ma Lingling, "Ah Bao?"

Ma Lingling secretly glanced at Gu Lao Er, and then looked at her mother, rolling her eyes.

Liu Shi glanced at her, and pinched her arm, "I'm asking you, where did A Bao go? Didn't you make him look fat?"

"A Bao, he's at Eldest Sister's place." Ma Lingling pretended to be in pain, so she had no choice but to say, and then went to see Gu Er Er, hesitating, "Father, Eldest, Eldest Sister said, let, let you go to her place in person, Bring Bao back."

"Eldest sister, what does she mean?" Liu looked at Gu Erer who didn't respond and snorted coldly, "This is to detain Abao and take advantage of the autumn harvest to rob him?"

Gu Lao Er hated Liu's sarcasm the most, and now he was annoyed by their mother and daughter singing together. In his private heart, he still believed in the eldest daughter's character. Moreover, since the separation of the family, people in the village have been talking about him behind his back. To be honest, he felt guilty towards Gu Ci, "Eldest sister is not this kind of person."

"Fuck." Liu Shi spit thick phlegm on the ground again, "Isn't this kind of person? Gu Erer, I have to get back the anger that Fatty suffered today. Look at your son's ears. Is that human being?"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Liu hugged the fat pier and went to Gu Ci's side. Ma Lingling looked at Gu's second child who was not moving, secretly happy in her heart, and hurriedly followed.

"Sister Gu, you are still in the mood to eat and drink!" As soon as Liu went up the slope, she saw the three siblings sitting together talking and laughing while eating. This harmonious scene made her very happy. Dazzling, even unwilling to maintain superficial politeness.

Gu's second child is poor and has no education. It costs money to ask a teacher to name him. For this reason, Gu Ci didn't have any serious name. As the first child, he was called Big Sister. It was the name General Zhao gave her when she was in corvée.

As soon as they heard Liu Shi's voice, the smiles on the faces of Gu Ci and the two children faded away, and Jiaojiao was even more afraid of Liu Shi, so she leaned towards her subconsciously.

"Jiaojiao, Abao, take this bone and chew it inside the house." Gu Ci didn't even look at Liu Shi who was approaching aggressively, he stroked Jiaojiao's head soothingly, and put the bone into their bowls Let them go inside the room, "Jiaojiao, look at Abao, the room is dark, don't let him fall."

Jiaojiao nodded, and Abao and Abao were about to enter the house with their bowls in hand.

"Lin Jiaojiao, don't leave." Mrs. Liu yelled, and then went to look at Gu Ci, "Sister Gu, Fatty is also your half-brother after all, this little bastard bit your brother like this, just say a word Nothing?"

Gu Ci supported the table and stood up, looked behind her, but didn't see Gu's second child, and his heart was completely cold, "Liu Ruhua, when you scold Jiaojiao, why don't you see what kind of daughter you are?"

"You..." Liu choked for a moment, and pointed at Jiaojiao again, "Lin Jiaojiao, since no one can teach you a bastard, I will teach you a lesson today..."

"Bang..." Before Liu could reach Jiaojiao's side, Gu Ci threw the bowl in his hand and fell directly at her feet, "Try to touch a hair of Jiaojiao today!"
