Jiaohua Growth Guide [Rebirth]

Farmers live on one-third of an acre of land. They work hard with their faces facing the loess soil and their backs facing the sky for a year. All the joy lies in the autumn harvest.God is kind, the weather is good this year, the crops in the field, the wheat bracts in the field, etc., are all fruitful.

Naturally, the joy and satisfaction of the big harvest are beyond words.

The house that Gu Ci and Jiaojiao are currently living in is close to the village's Shaguping, and since the sun came out, people have been busy there.

"Jiaojiao, you have to watch your two hens in prison these few days, don't let them run out and steal the millet." The young woman who just came down from Saiguping saw that Jiaojiao was carrying two hens. Ah strolling in the yard, he reminded lukewarmly.

This young woman is the daughter-in-law of Wu Tiezhu's family. The Wu family also escaped from disaster and settled in Gujia Village. Although they have taken root here for three generations, they are still outsiders in Gujia Village. They usually walk with his family. There were few people, but I don't know how this Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law got the eyes of Liu's eyes, but the relationship between the two is good.

When Jiaojiao first came to Gu's house, she often saw Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law coming to the door, she naturally knew her, but she didn't like this woman, so she didn't respond, she still took two steps, threw a handful of chopped grass, and let the two mothers The chicken dangled behind her.

"Hey, you girl, why are you ignoring me when I'm talking to you?" Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law and Mrs. Liu wore the same pair of pants, knowing that Mrs. Liu didn't like Jiaojiao. Instead, she found a reason to find fault, "That's right, a lowly bastard with a mother but not a mother, what rules does she know?"

Jiaojiao was standing in her yard playing with two hens, and she was scolded for no reason, her eyes were red with anger, but she really didn't know how to scold, so she could only stare at her with her round eyes, holding back. It took a long time to hold back a sentence that was completely harmless to these rural women, "Don't come to our house, you are not welcome."

Seeing her like this, Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law couldn't help but be amused, "The elder sister of the Gu family has to think carefully about what she says. After all, this place belongs to Gu's second son. You? A picked-up bastard, how dare you speak big here? "

"Sister-in-law Tie Zhu is saying who is the little bastard?" As soon as her daughter-in-law finished speaking, Gu Ci limped in from behind her.

"Sister." As soon as Jiaojiao saw Gu Ci, she ran over immediately. Her eyes, which were red just now, turned into tears as soon as she reached Gu Ci's arms, and splashed on Gu Ci's clothes .

"Eldest sister..." Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law dared to speak more harshly than one sentence just now, but she noticed that Gu Ci was not at home. She never thought that someone would come from behind her at this moment, and said with a embarrassed look: "I see Jiaoyao is letting go." Chickens, your place is close to Sunguping, remind her to look at the chickens, don't let them spoil the millet, sister-in-law is kind."

Gu Ci patted Jiaojiao's head, and looked at her coldly, "Sister-in-law Tie Zhu just called someone a bastard?"

Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law didn't expect Gu Ci to be so difficult, and she couldn't help feeling annoyed, but everyone in the village knew that Gu Ci, who went to serve in corvee three years ago, came back alive. When viewed as a great hero, everyone also privately said that this person who crawled out of the dead had a vicious aura on him, and he should not be provoked. Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law regretted her life, so naturally she didn't dare to show Gu Ci's face, so she could only please her: "You know Sister-in-law is just talking nonsense, eldest sister will spare sister-in-law this time, just treat me as a bad mouthed nonsense."

"You owe it to yourself, why should you embarrass Jiaojiao?" Gu Ci didn't take her flattery to heart, and lowered his head to wipe Jiaojiao's tears, then looked up at Tie Zhu's wife: "Let's talk again." , Sister-in-law hurt Jiaojiao, even if she apologizes, she should apologize to Jiaojiao."

"You want me to apologize to this wild girl?" Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law thought she had heard wrong, and raised her voice with a look of disbelief.

"What? Shouldn't it be?"

Seeing Gu Ci's sharp eyes, Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law froze in place, and after realizing it, she quickly looked at Jiaojiao again, "Jiaojiao, it's all because sister-in-law has a bad mouth, sister-in-law promises that she will never talk nonsense again. , you can forgive sister-in-law this time."

Jiaojiao glanced at her, then quickly buried her head in Gu Ci's waist, and whispered to Gu Ci: "Sister, I don't like her, and I don't want her to come to our door."

Gu Ci hummed softly, then looked up at Tie Zhu's wife, "Forget it this time. Jiaojiao has always been timid. Sister-in-law scared her hard this time. In the future, sister-in-law should not come to scare her when she has nothing to do."

"I saved it, I saved it." Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law seemed to be pardoned, "The family is busy, so my sister-in-law will go back first."

Gu Ci didn't reply, and Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law walked back in despair.When the people walked away, the little girl poked out a small head from her side to look out.

"It's worthless." Gu Ci hated iron for being weak, remembering that the little girl was scolded just now and didn't know how to fight back, he was distressed and angry, and poked her forehead to teach: "Why did I tell you on weekdays, If you lose, you don't lose, if you don't attack me, I won't attack you, just look at you."

The little girl knows that she loves her and won't sell her, and now she is not afraid of her cold face, hugging her waist, and softly coquettish with her: "I, I don't know how to swear, I can also swear But her."

Gu Ci was slightly stunned, and then remembered Jiaojiao's temperament. They had known each other for so long in their previous life, and she had never seen her say or do anything out of line, and she always behaved like a young lady from a noble family.

Unfortunately, Jiaojiao didn't remember anything after waking up, and the only proof of identity was a small "Lin" embroidered on a handkerchief on her body at that time. The little girl was delicate and weak, and she spoke casually.

"Sister, are you angry?" Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, the little girl panicked again, tugged at her sleeves, and looked at her cautiously.

Gu Ci pulled back his thoughts and smiled at her, "No, my sister is not coquettish."

If Jiaojiao is really the noble young lady of a rich family, she will naturally not be able to imitate the manners of these rural women, let alone a little girl, even she can't even swear at those women's vulgar|dirty words.

Having figured this out, Gu Ci looked at Jiaojiao's soft and weak temperament, and suddenly felt relieved, "If you don't know how to swear, then you won't scold them. Jiaojiao, just run into the house and stuff two balls of cotton into your ears so as not to dirty our Jiaojiao's ears."

Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing, she pursed her lips and smiled until her eyes crooked, "Well, I'll listen to my sister."

He Shi who rushed over hurriedly saw the two sisters muttering from a distance, and just in time to hear Jiaojiao's words when they came over, he took the opportunity to pick up the conversation, "Why do you listen to my sister?"

"Auntie." Jiaojiao was facing the door, and when she looked up and saw He Shi, she called out softly.The little girl still likes this big aunt who buys candy for her very much. The last time she ran away when she saw someone, she was really shy.

"Hey. It seems that the big aunt didn't give me the candy for nothing last time, and my daughter's mouth is a lot sweeter this time." Mrs. He happily agreed, and when she got closer, she found that the little girl's eyes were red, His face was sloppy, "Oh, who is bullying my daughter? Those rabbit eyes are pitiful."

"Auntie." Gu Ci turned around and greeted him, and frowned slightly when he saw what He was carrying in his hand, "It's the autumn harvest, and every household is very busy, and Auntie is still running around If I go back and delay the work at home, then I will be guilty of a serious crime."

Speaking of this, Mrs. He got angry, and yelled at Mrs. Liu and the others, "This damned Mrs. Liu sprayed manure all over his mouth, yelling all over the fields that you girls are too lazy to work, saying that you two are sorry. Let Jiaojiao help with housework and give you meat to eat..."

"Auntie, don't be angry, it's hot at noon, go to the house to drink some water first." Gu Ci saw that He Shi was sweating profusely, and it was noon again, worried that she would be overexcited and her body would be damaged, so she hurried Advise her to go into the house.

Lijia Village is a little distance away from Gujia Village, and it will take more than half an hour to walk. He Shi heard about this, and hurried over from the field to get something. He was really thirsty, and Jiaojiao gave it to her After pouring three bowls of water, she quenched her thirst.

"Ms. Liu's rotten mouth is not afraid of embarrassment, and she yells everywhere. It was your third aunt's fellow villager who told her about it, and your third aunt told the family about it. Your grandfather was so angry. Let me bring you half a catty of pork belly and two ribs."

Although there is some distance between the villages and the villages themselves, those distant fields are connected by several villages.

Mrs. Liu thought that she couldn't use Abao as a laborer, and hated Jiaojiao so much in her heart that she went around in the field yelling at people how nice she was to the eldest sister, but how did the eldest sister and Jiao girl know nothing about it? The rumor was spread ten to ten, and it naturally spread to Gu Ci's natal family.

People who don't know the inside story can still follow suit because Gu Ci and Jiaojiao are too lazy to work hard and don't want to suffer, but how could the Li family not know.

Gu Ci looked at the He family with an angry expression, and felt sour in her heart. In her previous life, in order to maintain the meager mother-daughter relationship with Liu family, she didn't have much contact with her grandfather's family.After reliving this life and having this separation, she realized that her grandfather's family had always cared for her.

Not wanting to make He Shi think too much, Gu Ci quietly rubbed his eyes, asked Jiaojiao to rub the cloth to wipe his face, took it over and wiped the sweat off He Shi's face himself, smiled and comforted him: "Auntie Why be angry with her, people are doing what the sky is watching, everyone's eyes are sharp, you just let her go."

The He family has no daughter, and no one has ever wiped her face. Seeing Gu Ci's intimacy with her, she couldn't express her anger, "Eldest sister can figure it out."

"My aunt turned around and told my grandpa, don't let everyone worry about me, I'm doing well, and when my legs get better, I'll take Abao to see them." Gu Ci handed the towel to Jiaojiao, and moved closer to him. He whispered in his ear: "Eldest Aunt will not bring me anything in the future, I have hidden some money from my own house, and I can buy what I want to eat."

He Shi glanced at her, looked at Gu Ci's frowning, and laughed again, "Little ghost. Okay, you will take care of yourself, and I don't have to worry about it anymore."

"I didn't want you to worry about it." Gu Ci also laughed, "I will accept the things my aunt sent this time, and I will send it next time. I am embarrassed to accept it. Both cousins ​​are old. When you want to spend money to say goodbye."

"Don't worry about this, the ugly words of the eldest aunt are the first, I love you, but you must not surpass the three of our family."

"Auntie said so, I feel more at ease." Gu Ci looked at the sun outside. During the autumn harvest like this, every household has to eat three meals. "Did Auntie eat lunch? Jiaojiao and I I haven't eaten yet, I can go now, cooking is very fast..."

"Auntie is busy. I don't have time to eat here. I'm just bringing something to you two poor little ones, and I'm leaving soon." He quickly waved his hand, and when he got up, he thought of Jiaojiao's smile. To the red eyes, "By the way, what did you and Jiao girl talk about in the courtyard just now? I think Jiao girl's eyes are red from crying."

"Sister-in-law Tiegen took advantage of my absence and said that Jiaojiao is a little girl with no parents..." Gu Ci turned cold, and she couldn't say those two words herself, "Jiaojiao is weak-tempered, she can't listen to this, Just cry there."

Hearing this, He's anger flared up again, "That little girl of the Feng family who is full of dung is really hateful, see if I don't turn around and report to her father, since I was a child, I knew what that woman was not Good stuff, back then when Matchmaker Wang said she was going to tell your eldest cousin, I refused to die."

Tie Gen's daughter-in-law's natal family is from Li's Village. Her family is also an outsider like Wang's, but they are rooted in Li's.

Gu Ci didn't know that there was such a layer in the middle. Thinking of Tie Gen's daughter-in-law's face, he was also relieved, "Then Feng is really not a good person, it's because the eldest aunt has vision."

Speaking of this, Mrs. He became a little complacent, and looked at the sun outside again, "Auntie is really busy, so I went back first, you take good care of yourself, if you are wronged and kind, just ask someone to come to Lijia Village to inform You three uncles. There is nothing else in the grandfather's house, but there are many people."

Gu Ci was both moved and amused, "I see. I know you are busy, so I won't keep you. You should leave quickly."

He Shi agreed, and when he went out, he saw Jiaojiao watering a few Xiyan flowers in the yard with the water he had just rubbed a towel outside, and said a few more words to her, "Girl Jiao, the first aunt will go back first, and take good care of the second aunt." Sent the hen."

Jiaojiao hurriedly raised her head to say hello, "Auntie, go slowly. I'll take care of the big hen."

He Shi smiled, and left in a hurry, Gu Ci watched her out of the yard, and then waved to Jiaojiao, telling her not to stay under the sun, lest she suffer from heat stroke.

During the past two days, the temperature was high during the day. Gu Ci was afraid that the meat would be spoiled, so he processed the bones first, put a handful of soybeans given by her third aunt and stewed them on the fire. The pork belly was placed in a large porcelain bowl and placed in water. In the pot, keep it for dinner, and for lunch, I will eat the leftover steamed buns from the morning with the stewed buns.

Ever since he was able to walk around in the fields, Gu Ci did not follow the rules of those peasants, and had to eat three meals a day, morning, afternoon and evening.

Both of them hadn't smelled the smell of meat for a long time. The stewed soybeans mixed with the smell of meat overflowed. Gu Ci could still hold back, but Jiaojiao was a glutton after all, so she couldn't hold back. Swallowed all the time.

Gu Ci watched, couldn't help laughing, "I told you not to come and watch by the stove, if you don't listen, now you know how uncomfortable it is to be greedy?"

It was hotter beside the stove than under the sun outside. Jiaojiao's face was already glowing red from the heat beside the stove. Hearing this, even her ears were red. She covered her gurgling stomach and found that she couldn't cover her voice at all. Shy and frustrated, he still tried to quibble: "It's all because my sister's cooking is so delicious."

Tsk, I'm getting bolder.

Gu Ci laughed softly, pinched her little ears, then lifted the lid of the pot and took a look in, "Go and get a bowl, I'll fill you with a bowl of soup to cushion your stomach."

The little girl immediately complied, but brought over two bowls, "Sister also pads her belly."

Gu Ci didn't respond, he picked up a bowl and put it in a little bit to taste the taste, "Soybeans are fine, but the ribs can still be boiled, let's eat first, the remaining soybeans will be boiled down, and I will give it to Uncle Bangen and Bangen next door later." Aunt Gen sent some over there."

The thatched cottage that Gu Ci and the others live in used to be considered a remote area, and there were not many families around, but gradually the number of people in the village increased, and houses were built in the fields to the south. The closest to the house, and the closest to the north is Uncle Bangen's house.

Uncle Bangen gave birth to a daughter and a son. The daughter married to the town, and she came back every year during the festival. The son was sent to the restaurant in the town to work as a waiter, and now he is also working as the manager of the largest restaurant there. I also married a wife in the town, and there were only the two of them at home. Uncle Bangen accidentally fell in the morning, and Aunt Bangen couldn't find anyone to help, so she had to ask Gu Ci to go there. Help at Uncle Bangen's house.

Knowing the situation, Jiaojiao nodded upon hearing this, "I'll send it there then."

Gu Ci filled a bowl and put it aside, afraid that she would burn it, "Don't touch it yet, eat it when it's cold, do you know?"

Jiaojiao stared at the delicacy close at hand, sniffed pitifully, "I'll grab a bean first."

Gu Ci didn't resist the little girl's coquettishness, took half of the spoon with a spoon, put it near his mouth and blew it, and then passed it to the little girl's lips when it was no longer hot, "Little greedy cat, taste it quickly."

Jiaojiao swallowed the entire spoon in her mouth with one gulp, then chewed hard with her cheeks puffed out.

Gu Ci poked her cheek, "Is it delicious?"

The little girl nodded like pounding garlic, took another spoon and scooped it up, followed Gu Ci's example and blew, then put it in her mouth to test the temperature, and found that it was not hot, so she stood on tiptoe and handed it to Gu Ci. Resigned, "Sister, you can eat too."

"You eat first, sister will eat later."

Jiaojiao was not happy, she shook her head, but she didn't extend her hand back, Gu Ci had no choice but to lower her head and eat with that spoon.

Once raw and second cooked, the sisters would feed each other soybeans with a spoon.

When the meal was in full swing, Abao's voice came from the courtyard. Gu Ci's ears were sharp, and when she heard it, she asked Jiaojiao to eat alone inside, and she walked towards the main room.

"A Bao?"

"Sister." A Bao smiled a little when he saw him, "Father said, I want you to take Sister Jiaojiao to my house for dinner."
