Jiaohua Growth Guide [Rebirth]
Chapter 98
Although the food is what he needs, Gu Ci felt that he deserved it, and looked at the pile of things in the cellar again, "They just suffered from this natural disaster, I accept this favor, but these things……"
"Don't worry." Xiao interrupted her, "To tell you the truth, I didn't want to accept these things for you at first, because my mother's family said that this Chen family village is a poor mountain valley where nothing shits. Even the yamen are not willing to send people to collect taxes in that dilapidated place. I also thought that their life was similar to that of savages... It turned out that it was not what we thought at all. People's lives are good, relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water Draft, look at these wild game, they even told you not to dislike them."
Gu Ci was stunned for a moment, "Most of them are just polite words."
"Polite words must be polite words, but I think the strong men who came to deliver these things are all top-notch capable men. Among them, on the day my handkerchief was delivered, I brought some women and some older children. , I looked at their expressions, they don't seem to be hungry or warm." Xiao bumped Gu Ci's elbow, "Don't be coy, I'll take things for you anyway. Besides, if you don't accept these things, I think people will feel even more sorry, or think that you despise these things."
Indeed, debts of favor are the most difficult to repay.Gu Ci lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then said to Xiao Shi: "Since such kindness is hard to turn down, I would be foolish if I refused again. However, this life-saving grace is not due to me alone. It’s just a matter of talking up and down, and the aunt who is in charge of the transmission is indispensable.”
"Go, go, go." Xiao Shi gave her an angry look, "Don't put on a high hat for me, I'm afraid that my life will be lost if I don't receive this kindness."
"Auntie also learned the nonsense of those ignorant women in the village." After experiencing such a wicked thing like rebirth, Gu Ci was a little sensitive to such words, he suppressed his smile, and said seriously: "I didn't joke with Auntie, Auntie should also have a share of these things."
"Hey, you girl, I don't even know what to say about you." The Xiao family doesn't lack these things, but people, who doesn't want a surprise like a pie in the sky to fall on their head, greedy Selfish desires are unavoidable for human beings. If Gu Ci really accepted all these things, Xiao Shi would have some opinions on others, but Gu Ci's generosity and sharing made her feel a little uncomfortable for no reason. The joy of seeing the right person is also a shame of showing his own multi-heartedness under Gu Ci's sincere heart.
Gu Ci didn't notice the change in her expression. He bent down to look at the things on the ground, pointed to wheat and millet and other coarse grains and said, "Auntie, I'll just accept these grains. As for the wild game, I'll take some back to give to you." The two little ones in the family try something new, and you accept the rest."
Needless to say, the Xiao family will not ask for grain. This year's harvest is not good. Last year, an acre could harvest three shi of grain. This year, many people think it is good to have two shi left. The weather is sunny and sometimes rainy, and the hard-earned food is not exposed to the sun, so it is easy to get damp, moldy, sprout and spoil.
"Wheat and millet, I have them at home, so I will give them to you. The weather this year is very weird. You should be more aware in the town that the prices of things have increased..." Halfway through the speech, Xiao suddenly turned around again. Huatou, "By the way, you just said that you have something to do when you go back to the village? But what's the matter?"
Gu Ci nodded his chin at the food, "Just for this. Just like what my aunt said, things in the town are expensive now, and I really can't afford it, so I want to come to the village to buy some food, so as not to get those In the business house, they still want to make me a difference."
"Then you were so stubborn just now, you can't live on yourself, so you're too embarrassed to accept it. I see, what this person sent is just a timely gift." The cellar was a bit gloomy, Xiao and Gu Ci made it clear, He didn't stay inside for too long, and walked out with Gu Ci while talking, "Let me tell you, there are not many people in our village who have surplus grain to sell this year."
Regarding crops, Gu Ci is not an old hand, and he doesn't know much about them. Thinking of the full crop fields when he left the village, he couldn't help but wonder, "I see that this year's crops are good, how could it be?"
"Everyone was very happy when they first harvested, and they thought this year would be a bumper harvest." After coming out of the cellar, Mrs. Xiao took out a bench in one hand and sat down in a sunny place, "But you also know, Ever since you moved, it has been sunny, rainy and rainy, and there is no way to dry it well. The millet returned by many people has been damaged due to moisture, mildew, germination, and until now, there are still many people who have not received any food. warehouse."
No wonder food is so expensive?
Gu Ci raised his eyebrows, "Auntie, how is your family's grain harvest?"
"Thanks to you, Uncle Li Zheng didn't want the whole family to be tired. When collecting food, I wanted to go all out. I asked a few people to help, and the yard is spacious, so I didn't lose much?" Xiao used to be angry at his man for not being frugal, but now On the contrary, she felt that her man had a foresight, and when she thought about what happened with the rice harvest this autumn, she felt bad, "It's a good thing you moved away, otherwise you will be killed in trouble in the days ahead."
"Huh?" Isn't everyone busy at Autumn Harvest?How can there be time for fuss?
"During this period of time, the sunny days are those days. Every family wants to occupy a good place to dry the millet. In order to compete for the good place to dry the valley, several families fought fiercely." Xiao recalled those few days when her husband was tossed. I have to go to this house to make peace in the morning, and go to that house to appease in the afternoon. I am tired and look down on these people in the village. "It was really noisy and restless during those days. I wish I could move to the town."
In the Gu family village, the person Gu Ci was most compatible with was Xiao Shi, and Aunt Bangen was more like an elder to get close to. Xiao Shi didn't look old, and occasionally joked, and she treated Gu Ci like a girl. To me, she is more like a close friend in a boudoir, and I am happy to hear that she has moved this idea, "Come on, just move to the town, the town is full of single-family houses, everyone lives their own lives behind closed doors, If there is a commotion, we don't have to worry about it, we will be neighbors and it will be convenient for us to visit."
"You're thinking ahead." Xiao said, sighing again, "If Tianming's marriage is settled, I'm willing to take the money with me. It's just that Tianming's marriage has not yet been decided. , I’m afraid that when the time comes, the person he likes will ask for a lot of dowry, and if I can’t get it, it will be bad if he delays his marriage.”
Gu Ci fell silent, Xiao Shi was right to think about it, she didn't have a firm foothold in the town, so she couldn't say anything more.
Xiao Shi just casually said this to Gu Ci, and seeing that she stopped talking, she changed the subject with a smile, "By the way, the food problem has been solved now, and when I leave later, go and pull some seeds from my vegetable garden. Let go with cabbage and radish, the leek stubble planted this year is growing very well, you should also cut some off, it’s good to use this to make fried eggs.”
"That's a good thing, I fell in love with my aunt's vegetable garden when I came here." Gu Ci was telling the truth.
After solving a major problem and saving a lot of money, Gu Ci felt a lot more relaxed. He sat in the yard and chatted with Mrs. Xiao for a while. Mrs. Xiao was going to prepare lunch. Gu Ci saw that she was not wanted To help, she simply went to get firewood from the firewood shed of her dilapidated hut.
As a result, when I arrived at the firewood house, I found that there was only a little bit of firewood left that I had stacked neatly before.
Gu Ci looked at the millet drying in the yard of her house, and she didn't need to guess who took the firewood from her house. She packed up the rest, but she thought it was disgusting to look at this person, so she simply As if those firewood had been eaten by mice, but the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. She took out two pieces of firewood and smashed a dozen or so wombs that had been planted on the land she had reclaimed. Two pieces of firewood stood there to demonstrate.
Although this behavior was somewhat insidious, Gu Ci felt much more relaxed.
When returning to the entrance of the village from Aizipo, Gu Ci met many people along the way. She greeted them generously, but some talkative women rushed forward. Some hidden lots in the village to walk.
Unexpectedly, a more disgusting thing happened - that little slut Ma Lingling actually kissed her talented cousin in a small forest in broad daylight...
It was the first time that Gu Ci hated himself for having nothing to do. Why did he have such good eyesight? With a casual glance, he caught sight of Ma Lingling's bewildered face. Don't worry about freezing outside.
More importantly - will it grow the eye of a needle?If her little girl knew that she looked at other girls' breasts, would she quarrel with her?
In the midst of this flash, thousands of thoughts flashed through Gu Ci's mind, then he held his breath and tiptoed out, pretending he didn't know.
Out of sight is pure, anyway she sees this Liu Xiucai as disgusting, so good, wicked people will be punished by wicked people, anyway, she made a fuss about this matter, maybe she will make a fuss about her, saying that she is indiscreet or something.It's better to let them do their own crimes, it's better to hurry up and cook the rice. These two disgusting people are a pair, and they don't have the heart to think about her little girl.
The more Gu Ci thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea, and after he got out of the small forest, he took a peek inside -- well, it was hard to part with each other.
After returning to Xiao's courtyard, Gu Ci didn't tell Xiao about this matter, but just inquired about the current situation of the second Gu's family intentionally or unintentionally.
Talking about the situation of the second Gu's family, Xiao Shi was really full of gossip, "Their family is the most lively in the village. You said that the family of Liu's brothers is really strange, and they still rely on Xiao's family to this day. I live at home. You said that under the same roof, husband and wife have to quarrel a few times, not to mention the two big families. Just yesterday, Liu Shi and her sister-in-law had a quarrel. It is said that the reason was that Liu Shi discovered her The sister-in-law secretly picked up the eggs at home and cooked them for the two nephews behind her back."
"Tsk tsk..." Now that the relationship is broken, Gu Ci can really feel at ease as an outsider to watch the excitement. Hearing this, the corners of his lips raised uncontrollably, "Then I don't know how many fights there will be in the future."
Xiao also felt relieved, and leaned closer to her and whispered: "Now, the most troublesome thing is our good village head. This year's harvest is not good, and every family's complexion is not very good. Remembering that taxes are coming soon, one by one Who would be willing to pay a penny to build a house for this talented man, but that elder brother of the Liu family has become thick-skinned, and it is said that he goes to the patriarch's house every few days."
It deserves it, let him eat radish salty and worry about it.
Gu Ci still smiled, "Who told us that the patriarch is a warm-hearted person?"
Xiao Shi knew that she was talking ironically, so he scolded her with a smile, and then talked about some trivial things about Gu Lao Er's family.
Gu Ci listened as if it was a pleasure, the more he listened, the more relieved he felt.
This winter, Xiao Shi only cooks two meals. This lunch is extra for Gu Ci. Gu Ci also knows the rules of the village, so he didn't ask too much. After eating with Xiao Shi, they went to the vegetable garden together. He picked the vegetables in the yard, took the grain and some game in the cellar, said goodbye to Xiao Shi, and hurried back.
The little girl had been looking forward to her sister's return, and opened the courtyard door as soon as she heard the noise outside.
As soon as Gu Ci parked the carriage, he saw the door of his own courtyard opened. When he saw the little girl, his exhaustion disappeared immediately, "Come and see, how much food did my sister bring back?"
The carriage was simple and had no shed. In order not to attract attention, Gu Ci covered it with a rag. Once it was lifted, the little girl could see what was on it at a glance.
"Don't worry." Xiao interrupted her, "To tell you the truth, I didn't want to accept these things for you at first, because my mother's family said that this Chen family village is a poor mountain valley where nothing shits. Even the yamen are not willing to send people to collect taxes in that dilapidated place. I also thought that their life was similar to that of savages... It turned out that it was not what we thought at all.

Gu Ci was stunned for a moment, "Most of them are just polite words."
"Polite words must be polite words, but I think the strong men who came to deliver these things are all top-notch capable men. Among them, on the day my handkerchief was delivered, I brought some women and some older children. , I looked at their expressions, they don't seem to be hungry or warm." Xiao bumped Gu Ci's elbow, "Don't be coy, I'll take things for you anyway. Besides, if you don't accept these things, I think people will feel even more sorry, or think that you despise these things."
Indeed, debts of favor are the most difficult to repay.Gu Ci lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then said to Xiao Shi: "Since such kindness is hard to turn down, I would be foolish if I refused again. However, this life-saving grace is not due to me alone. It’s just a matter of talking up and down, and the aunt who is in charge of the transmission is indispensable.”
"Go, go, go." Xiao Shi gave her an angry look, "Don't put on a high hat for me, I'm afraid that my life will be lost if I don't receive this kindness."
"Auntie also learned the nonsense of those ignorant women in the village." After experiencing such a wicked thing like rebirth, Gu Ci was a little sensitive to such words, he suppressed his smile, and said seriously: "I didn't joke with Auntie, Auntie should also have a share of these things."
