Jiaohua Growth Guide [Rebirth]

The weather this year is not as good as last year. It was sunny for two days and rainy for three days, and it was colder than last year. After the beginning of winter, I had to put on a thick jacket sooner or later, and it began to snow in early November.

Bad weather will naturally affect the harvest of grain. If the harvest of farmers is not good, the price of grain and vegetables will be more expensive.

Gu Ci took two jobs in the Fortune Restaurant, and almost stayed in the restaurant during the day, and could only go to buy some scattered daily necessities in the morning or evening and come back. The little girl watched her work so hard every day, and there was A Ru, a big acquaintance, took over these odd jobs spontaneously. Seeing that the price of the vegetables was getting higher and higher, the housekeeper's little girl was very worried, and she carried empty baskets for several days. Go, and come back with an empty basket.

Although the little girl is the one who buys vegetables at home, it is Gu Ci who is in charge of cooking.In the first two days when she asked the little girl why she didn't buy any vegetables, the little girl could still prevaricate her by saying "I didn't see any vegetables I wanted to buy." I figured out why.

She stayed in the restaurant every day, and when she was busy in the kitchen, she often heard Gu Chunxiao complain about the rising prices of vegetables, wondering whether to increase the price or reduce the quantity. She didn't join in the fun, but she also listened to it. In this case.

Seeing the little girl still seriously lying to her that the basket was empty today because she went late, Gu Ci felt it was funny, "I thought I didn't see any good and cheap dishes today."

But didn't you see cheap and high-quality dishes?The little girl nodded, "That's right, that's right, I'm going to buy white radish today, didn't my sister take a bone from the restaurant, just to make a soup, and put a fire on Po, his lips have been dry recently, and the corners of his mouth are sore There are two little red dots growing. But this white radish is also... gone."

Gu Ci didn't expose her, "Then you give me some pocket money, I'll go to the restaurant early tomorrow, and I'll buy it there first."

The little girl was a little embarrassed, "Then...that's not necessary, I'll go early tomorrow."

Gu Ci smiled, and poked her on the shoulder, "Do you know why Ah Bao got angry? It's because all we eat are pickled vegetables recently, which makes you so reluctant to spend money."

After being exposed by Gu Ci, the little girl did not quibble, "My sister only earns three taels of silver for working hard in the restaurant for a month. We also need money for rice, noodles, vegetables, leaves, and water... Everything costs money, so of course you have to save some money.”

Talking about the money, Gu Ci was also a little upset, thinking that if it really didn't work out, next year when the weather became warmer in the spring, she would go out with someone for two trips, not to mention anything else, at least the little girl's life would be better. Li, it can't be too simple.

"We need to save the province, but we shouldn't, and we can't be too sloppy. You and Abao are still young, and Abao has a lot of schoolwork now, and it's time to grow up, so he can't eat too badly. gone."

The little girl was still very concerned about Abao's matter, "Then I'll go buy radishes tomorrow, and I still have the bones today."

Gu Ci: "Okay, don't buy too much. My sister will take a rest the day after tomorrow. The weather will be better in the next two days. I will pick up a carriage and go back to the village the day after tomorrow. It should be cheaper to go to the village to buy food. When I come back, I will buy some vegetables by the way." return."

"Sister, that's a good idea." The little girl's eyes brightened, "We also need to bring some unused firewood, and the firewood in the town is also very expensive..."

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.How did such a little girl who was supposed to be a high-ranking girl endure the days when she had to spend every penny in poor clothes and poor food?

Gu Ci looked at the little girl who was calculating and calculating, staring at her perforated lips, he couldn't hear what she was saying at all, and raised his hand unconsciously, stopping at the little girl's frowning eyebrows.

"Huh?" Wen Liang's fingers touched her skin, and the little girl dodged subconsciously, her brows raised a little because of impatience, "Sister, are you listening to me?"

Gu Ci nodded, exerted a little force with his fingers, and rubbed against her frowning brows, "I listen to Jiaojiao, as long as it is valuable, I will bring it."

"It's a pity that the kang bed can't be brought here." The little girl tugged at the quarter braid she newly researched today, "This year's weather must be colder than last year, and it must be cold for Ah Bao to sleep in a room alone."

Gu Ci was stunned for a moment, she really didn't think about it, "Then put him an extra quilt and buy two hot water bottles to warm his feet..." Speaking of this, she patted herself on the head again For a moment, I hated myself for being negligent, "I haven't bought any charcoal at home. It snowed a few days ago, and you didn't have a charcoal basin for the fire at home, so you didn't remind me earlier."

"I'm not cold." The little girl smiled slyly at her, and stretched out her hand towards the stove, "Anyway, Abao won't be home until evening from school, and I'm alone at home during the day, so it was very cold those few days When I was there, I stayed with Aru, and her room was warmed by good charcoal."

Gu Ci didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I'm always taking advantage of others like this, and I'm not afraid of being resented by others. Come on, bring me a ladle of water."

"Okay." The little girl took her hand back from the fire, trotted to scoop up a spoonful of water from the water tank outside, raised her brows slightly, and said in a very airy manner, "Aunt Bangen and Sister Chunxiao don't dislike me." , They really like me. Aru is 12 years old, and Chunxiao’s sister-in-law said that she is not safe at all, and Aunt Bangen knows that I can embroider, so they hope that I will go there every day and take Aru to learn some female reds.”

Aunt Bangen's family is pretty solid. Although they are profit-seeking businessmen, Gu Ci has nothing to say to their three siblings, "Aru looks like a crazy girl, but she has a clever temper. Since Auntie and My sister-in-law thinks highly of you, so I have to teach him well."

"Of course." The little girl poured the remaining half a spoonful of water into the water tank. Water also costs money, so it can't be wasted. , and cabbage is so expensive, let's stop raising rabbits, Aru likes our little rabbits, give her a pair, and sell the rest."

"Are you willing?" Gu Ci sprinkled a handful of salt into the pot, stirred it well, then scooped it up with a shovel and tasted it, but he didn't look back.

Rabbits that have been raised here for a long time must have feelings, but if you are not in charge of the family, you don’t know how much food, rice, oil and salt are. I must be willing to let it go: "Anyway, I go to Aru's house every day, and I think they can also see them."

"That's fine." Gu Ci has no time to deal with these little things now, she has to tell the little girl not to go to the countryside to mow the grass every day, so she has long been eager to deal with these rabbits, "We have a dozen or so It’s only a rabbit, I’ll ask Brother Chunxiao if he wants to buy a restaurant tomorrow?”

While talking, dinner is ready.It's getting dark now, and it's time to light the oil lamps.The weather is cold, and the family usually eats in the kitchen over the embers after cooking, and warms up by the way.

The following weather was indeed as Gu Ci said, it was sunny and fine. On the day Gu Ci took a break, he drove back to Gu's Village in the carriage borrowed from Song Chunxiao early in the morning.

"I just heard the sound of the carriage, and I was wondering if it was you who came back, but when I came out, it was indeed you." Gu Ci returned to the village and did not go to his home first, but first parked the carriage at Xiao's House Before she could stop, Xiao came out from the inside and greeted her across the courtyard. "Why are you free to come back today?"

"Auntie." Gu Ci jumped down and tied the horse to the big locust tree outside, "I don't want Auntie anymore, so I'll come back to see you."

"Tsk, the jokes are getting more and more slippery, and I don't know who I learned from?" Although Xiao said so, she was very happy, and looked at the carriage again, "Jiao Yatou and A Bao are not together?" return?"

"No, Abao Academy hasn't rested yet." Gu Ci shook his head, took two more gift boxes from the car, and carried them into the courtyard gate.

"What's the relationship between us, do you want to be polite with those things you pretend to be?" Xiao glanced at the things in Gu Ci's hand, and really didn't want to accept them, "When your life is better, you don't need to be polite, my aunt will catch up coming."

"It's not a valuable thing. It's just some snacks I bought for Tianlei. It doesn't cost much. Besides, I told my aunt clearly that I have something to do when I come to the village today. I guess I can leave later. It must be I want to have lunch at your house."

"Tsk, it sounds like I'm reluctant to eat a meal." Xiao Shi snorted at her, led her into a seat, and poured her a bowl of hot tea, "Speaking of which, if you don't come back this time, you'll have to wait." I'm free, I have something to see you."

After driving for so long, Gu Ci was really thirsty, so he picked up the bowl and drank the tea, wondering, "What does Auntie want from me?"

Mrs. Xiao sat down next to her, with a mysterious expression on her face, "Didn't you ask me to remind the people in Chenjia Village to be more careful and worry about landslides and mudslides? After hearing what you said, I later The entrusting person inquired about my handkerchief, and then took the word over, and in the end, guess what happened?"

Gu Ci himself almost forgot about this, he was stunned for a moment before he said nervously: "What's wrong?"

"It turned out that just over half a month ago, the landslide really happened, and many houses were buried." Xiao looked straight at Gu Ci, "Old people say that dreams are reversed, but fortunately, I Take that to heart."

Gu Ci felt a little guilty when she looked at him, and shifted his gaze, "Is that person all right?"

"Their village is small, and there are less than 200 people from top to bottom. Because there are mountains in the front, back, left, and right, for safety, every house is close to each other. Thanks to my handkerchief, I always believed in me. Her husband happened to be Li Zheng again. I went door-to-door and talked about it several times before I survived. However, more than a dozen people died, and these people also did their own crimes. was buried alive."

In his previous life, Gu Ci heard that the entire village was buried, and now it is a merit to be able to save so many people, Gu Ci sighed slightly, "In the future, the man you handed the handkerchief to will be a more Li Zheng is a man of prestige."

"That's not it." Xiao Shi nodded, and then tapped Gu Ci's temple, "It's all thanks to your blessing. The eldest sister is a lucky star, and I will have to curry favor with you in the future."

"Auntie can tell jokes."

"Who's joking with you?" Xiao's expression really didn't look like he was joking, "This world is really impermanent. I heard from the man who handed me the handkerchief that the landslide over there really didn't have the slightest warning. After two days of heavy rain, the mountain collapsed as soon as it said it would. Hey, it’s also thanks to your dream.”

Xiao Shi said, pulling Gu Ci to stand up again, "Come and follow me to the cellar to have a look, and show you some good things."

"What good stuff?"

"You just come with me." Xiao made a fool of himself, dragged Gu Ci into his cellar, opened the door, pointed to the wild game and grain on the ground and said to Gu Ci: "These are all yours. "

"Mine? Where did I get these things?" Gu Ci was really taken aback. Seeing that Xiao Shi didn't seem to be joking, he glanced at the miscellaneous rice, flour, wheat, corn and other things on the ground.

Xiao: "The man who handed me my handkerchief said that there is no repayment for saving your life. In the future, as long as you have a place where you can find someone, they will spare no effort from all over the Chen family village."

This is too... serious, right?

Gu Ci glanced at Mrs. Xiao, then pointed to the big push to eat, "So, these are all given by them?"

"Yes." Xiao nodded, "There are 48 households in their village, five of them died, and each of the remaining 43 households gave a share. You didn't see it at the time, and the twenty strong men in Chenjia Village The scene of queuing up to deliver things into the village, thanks to you, the man in my family also followed suit."

Looking at the food in front of him, Gu Ci suddenly wanted to see the little girl's reaction, and couldn't wait.
