Gu Ci didn't expect Ah Bao to be so thoughtful, and seeing the little girl who was embarrassed to eat candied haws, and felt pain if she didn't eat, her face was almost wrinkled together in annoyance, she tried her best to suppress her desire Upturned lips:

"Don't think that you can be greedy when you have teeth. If children eat too much of this sweet and sour food, their teeth are prone to tooth decay, so you can't eat too much."

Ah Bao couldn't be scared, when he heard this, he hurriedly said: "Sister Jiaojiao, then, then I won't eat for you."

"I won't let you eat it." The little girl relaxed, bit one hard, and tiptoed to Gu Ci's mouth, "Hey, I don't like it very much, sister help me eat two. "

Gu Ci held back his laughter, and didn't expose her, "What should I do, sister doesn't like to eat this at all?"

"What else can I do? It must not be wasted." The little girl was probably guilty, and some dared not go to see Gu Ci, "Then, then I will eat as much as I can."

Ah Bao, a little idiot, even nodded agreeingly, "Ten pennies for five cents, and two cents for one penny. Sister Jiaojiao can't waste it."

The little girl is getting tired of this silly brother now, and decided not to talk to him today, snorted angrily, and ran towards the west alley, pulling Gu Ci's clothes.

Abao was hummed with a dazed expression, but he still held Jiaojiao's hand cautiously.

People come and go, Gu Ci's hands are not empty, worried that the two of them will be separated by others, and remind them to hold each other's hands when they come out. Naturally, Jiaojiao will not be petty in this matter, and hold Ah Bao's small wrist.

At the entrance of the West Alley, Jiaojiao refused to allow Gu Ci to follow, and asked her and Abao to wait for her at the entrance of the alley.

"No." Gu Ci rejected her without even thinking, "This person comes and goes, I dare to let you go alone?"

"It's not far away, it's just inside Caiyi Lane."

"That's not okay." On the busy street, Gu Ci couldn't scold her. Seeing her stubborn face, he took another step back, "If you don't want my sister to know what you buy, then I won't go to the store." That's it."

Jiaojiao pursed her lips, didn't answer, she led Abao and walked inside.

Gu Ci also followed behind, and when they reached the third store, the little girl stopped and let go of A Bao's hand, "No peeking."

"Don't look at it, don't look at it." Gu Ci followed her. She had come to this store to pull the cloth before, and knew that it also sold some girls' household belongings, such as small cloth strips and bellybands. The quality is naturally not as good as the inside. Those shops, but the advantage is that they have a lot of variety, and the price is actually affordable. Gu Ci was worried that she was going to buy something that he couldn't talk about, so he said thoughtfully: "Is ten pennies enough?"

"Should be enough." The little girl nodded, seeing Abao ready to move, she said to him with a tigery face: "I'll buy mine, you buy yours, don't follow in."

Ah Bao scratched his head, seeing how fierce she was, he had no choice but to nod with a bitter face, and watched Jiaojiao go inside helplessly, before asking Gu Ci for help, "Sister, what should I buy?"

A Bao is too sincere, and Gu Ci also has a headache, "You can buy whatever you want, if you don't have anything you want to buy right now, just save it first."

Ah Bao thought for a while, but didn't know what he wanted to buy, "Then I'll save it and buy it next time."

Gu Ci thought that the little girl would buy something quickly, but after waiting outside for a long time, she didn't see the little girl coming out, so he couldn't help worrying, "Abao, go to the door and call inside, and ask if your sister Jiaojiao is Is it not that there is not enough money?"

Ah Bao hesitated for a moment before nodding, trotted and hid at the door, poked his head inside, probably looking for someone, and then spoke after a while: "Sister Jiaojiao, sister asked if you don't have enough money?"

The little girl was coquettishly trying to lower the price with the proprietress, and seeing that the proprietress was about to let go, but what A Bao said almost made her vomit blood, and gave him a hard look, "No."

Abao quickly ran to Gu Ci's side, "Sister Jiaojiao said no."

Gu Ci frowned, "Then why haven't you come out yet?"

A Bao shook his head, "I don't know, Sister Jiaojiao is so fierce, I don't dare to read more."

Gu Ci smiled at him, "I guess we thought we were peeking at her, and my temper is getting bigger and bigger, my sister will talk about her later."

"Don't." Abao quickly shook his head, "Sister Jiaojiao looks fierce and pretty, and I'm not afraid of her, sister don't talk about her, otherwise sister Jiaojiao will ignore me in the future."

Ah Bao was annoyed that he had talked too much just now, and he was afraid that Gu Cizheng would be angry with sister Jiaojiao because of this, so he racked his brains to think about the little girl, "The eagle that sister Jiaojiao embroidered for me is so beautiful, all the students in the school want it." Asked for my schoolbag, brother Tianlei even wanted to secretly exchange pastries with me for the schoolbag, but I didn't agree, I really like my little schoolbag."

Tianlei's younger brother is the third son of the Lizheng family, one year younger than Abao, and he was sent to the elementary school for enlightenment only this year.

"Sister, don't talk, don't talk." Gu Ci looked at his anxious and flushed little face, and stopped teasing him, "Does Abao like Sister Jiaojiao? Do you blame Sister for being nice to Sister Jiaojiao?"

"I like it." Ah Bao licked a mouthful of candied haws, tilted his head, and looked at her in confusion, "Sister Jiaojiao is a family with us, of course my sister should treat her well."

"Well, what Ah Bao said is right." Gu Ci breathed a sigh of relief, the child is possessive, and she is most afraid that Ah Bao will think that Jiao Jiao has taken away her love, and she will hate Jiao Jiao in her heart.

Abao smiled sheepishly, "Huniu also praised Sister Jiaojiao for being pretty, even with bruises all over her face, she envies me for having such a pretty sister."

Speaking of Huniu, Gu Ci unexpectedly thought of Gu Dashan's joke, and wanted to say something, but felt that Abao was still young, and it would be useless for her to say more. Forget about it.

"What did you buy?" Seeing the little girl's complacency, Gu Ci started to tease her a little bit, "Show it to my sister, but it's a loss?"

"I can't show it to you now." Jiaojiao tightly gripped the cloth bag containing the handkerchief and sachet. When it comes to the price, the complacency in her eyes is almost overwhelming. "The proprietress said that she has been in business for 20 years. It's the first time I've met such a quick-talking little girl like me, but she's willing to bow down."

"You can believe the businessman's cliché." Seeing her coming out, Gu Ci didn't delay, picked up his things and led the two of them towards the exit.

"I remember, the last time my sister came here to buy things, no one praised you with such words." The little girl was not splashed by the cold water at all, and she was still arrogant.

Gu Ci was speechless by her, but he became more and more curious about what she bought with ten cents.

When we got to the exit, Doctor Gu hadn't come yet, so Gu Ci took the two of them to sit in the tea shed. At this point, the tea shed didn't have any business, and the proprietress was free, so she just sat there and chatted with them. Ci thought the proprietress was nice, so he took the initiative to buy two handfuls of melon seeds from the food he bought, and asked her to eat, but the proprietress was not polite.

The melon seeds were only half eaten, and Little Doctor Gu also came out with both hands full. Knowing that Gu Ci had a lot of things, after putting away his own things, he took the initiative to come to the tea shed to help her carry the deposited things.

It was the twelfth lunar month, and the night was bitingly cold, so Dr. Gu didn't dare to delay, so he hurried back after setting things up.

Because Gu Ci had a lot of things, Little Doctor Gu didn’t abduct him back to his home, but drove the ox cart to Gu Ci’s house first, and helped Gu Ci send the things up the slope, and learned the lesson of Gu Ci’s stuffing things privately last time Afterwards, he checked his belongings again before rushing back.

Old Doctor Gu is a high-minded person. She gave a gift privately, fearing that it would make people feel bad. Gu Ci understood this reason, so he was not prepared. He thought about going to the mountains again when the weather was good. Order some wild game to go home for the New Year, and send some over when the time comes.

The lunch was decent, but Gu Ci paid attention to dinner. After entering the house, he changed his clothes and went to the stove to cook. Because he was not at home all day, no one added firewood to the stove, and the stove must not be hot anymore. Fearing that they would be cold, she didn't let them into the house, so she moved a bench and sat by the stove to warm up.

It's true that Gu Ci himself was not relaxed after a day of shopping today, and the two younger ones were even more tired. After dinner, they stopped pestering Gu Ci to tell stories, and the two were as sleepy as chickens pecking at rice.

Seeing them staring in a daze, Gu Ci couldn't bear to wake them up, so he fetched water, washed A Bao's face and feet first, carried him to the kang, and then took care of the little girl.

"Jiaojiao, wake up first, I'll bring the water to the back room to wash."

The little girl hadn't fallen asleep yet, so she sat there with her chin in her hands and watched her work. Obviously A Bao carried her over, why did she have to let her go when it was her turn.

unhappy.

The little girl squinted her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but said nothing.

The oil lamp was dim, and if you looked carefully, you might not be able to see the little girl's small thoughts. Gu Ci couldn't understand it. Seeing that she didn't respond, he shook her shoulder lightly, "Jiaojiao?"

"Hmph." The little girl couldn't pretend anymore, "I also want you to take you back to the house."

This unexpected embrace...

Gu Ci was stunned for a moment, then looked straight at her.

The little girl felt inexplicably flustered by what she saw, and started playing rogue in front of her, putting her hands on the table and resting her head on it, "I'm so sleepy, I fell asleep."

Gu Ci: "..."

Typical pampered and spoiled.

After staring at the person pretending to be asleep for a while, Gu Ci laughed silently, bent down and hugged the little girl into his arms, and walked steadily into the back room.

The little girl who was pretending to be sleeping was very happy, but at the same time secretly spurned her thick skin. She was thinking wildly there, but she became more energetic. Before Gu Ci poked her, she blushed.

After putting the person on the bed, Gu Ci took the oil lamp and went out to fetch water, wiped the little girl with her eyes closed with a cloth towel, then poured the water into the wooden basin for washing her feet, mixed with two spoonfuls of some The water was hot, and after testing the water temperature, he helped the little girl take off her socks, grabbed her feet and put them into the water.

"hot."

"Don't move. After walking so much today, you need to soak your feet well." Gu Ci didn't allow her to break free, and still grabbed her feet and soaked them in the water, "Are you awake?"

"No. I'm talking in my sleep." After adapting to the water temperature, it was not so unbearable, the little girl decided to play tricks to the end, and hummed with her eyes closed.

"Oh." Gu Ci deserved a lot of meaning, scooped up water with his hands and poured it down her calf, "Then tell my sister a few more words in your sleep."

The little girl's feet are sensitive and ticklish, when Gu Ci moved her hand, she couldn't help laughing, and sat up quickly, "Okay, okay, I'm awake, I'll wash myself."

Gu Ci looked at her and smiled, but didn't speak. He got up and wiped his hands, and brought over both the ointment for face and the ointment for hand care, rubbed them on his palms and warmed them up, and then wiped her face. After washing her feet, she took a towel to help her wipe her hands, and then applied ointment for her hands.

"Aren't you sleeping yet?" After washing her feet, the little girl took off her clothes, got into bed, saw that Gu Ci was still busy with your work, and sat up again.

"Lie down under the quilt, what if you catch a cold?" Gu Ci pushed her back into the quilt, "I'll help you tidy up those veil embroidery threads before going to sleep."

As soon as the little girl came back, she tossed the cloth bag and forgot about it. Hearing that she couldn't sleep, she anxiously wanted to get up, "I'll tidy it up by myself tomorrow."

Fearing that Gu Ci would not agree, the little girl began to pretend to be pitiful again, "The bed is cold, and I can't sleep warm at all by myself."

The bed in the back room is not a kang bed, only A Bao's is, but Gu Ci is full of yang, and he bought new cotton and hired someone to play the new quilt, and the two of them are not cold when they sleep.

Gu Ci frowned, she knew that the little girl was afraid of the cold, so she reached out her hand to touch it, and it was indeed a little cold, "Then you cover it with a quilt first, and I will come in after washing my face with water."

"Then, then you are not allowed to tidy up things." The little girl was still worried, and held her hand, "Otherwise, I will die of cold."

"It's approaching the end of the year, and you still say such depressing words, see if I will slap you." Gu Ci broke away from her hand, and poked her forehead, "Don't stretch out your hand, I'll come over after I wash my face.

"Then hurry up."

Gu Ci turned his head and glanced at her, completely losing his temper with her, "Put the quilt on."

He stared at the little girl getting into the bed, only showing two eyes, and then went out with the basin.
