Chapter 171: Aunt Zheng's Hospitality
Gu Chunzhu and Luo Xinlan went into the house to talk alone, leaving Yingzi and the two children to play in the yard, and nothing would happen if Aunt Zheng watched.
Aunt Zheng stuffed the oil paper bag containing the candied dates into Xiaocheng and told them to pick and eat them casually. She went to sit on the small bench and shed the duck's feathers. The thick feathers had been plucked and the fine fluff was brushed again.
"Run slowly, and be careful not to fall." Aunt Zheng looked up at the three children from time to time with a cheerful look on her face.
Gu Chunzhu took Luo Xinlan into the room and gently closed the door. Seeing Luo Xinlan pursing her lips at a loss, she knew that she knew what she was going to say.
"What do you think about the house in the east of the city?" Seeing her hesitation, Gu Chunzhu still wanted to ask one more question. It's a pity not to buy such a good house now, and the rest are rubbish. .
"Chunzhu, everything is difficult without money." Luo Xinlan's eyes were turning red. She sat on the edge of the bed and pointed to the pile of menstrual towels folded on the table, tears streaming down her face.
"Yingzi also worked hard with me last night. We have only made 200 slices in the past two days. I thought that the house in this town is so hard that the child is not worth it, so I might as well save a few dozen taels. Yin gave her the scenery as her dowry."
"Confused!" Gu Chunzhu scolded lightly, how could Luo Xinlan's mind not turn around.
"You don't have a place to live in front of you. It's better to buy a house than renting it. Even if you give Yingzi 80 taels as a dowry in the future, it's unlikely that you will meet someone who wants to pay for your dowry, like that Xu Xiucai."
Luo Xinlan also knew about Xu Xiucai. When she talked about it, she also scolded Su Duoer for caring only about her face, and the old lady Su and her wife also let the girl's temperament be.
Gu Chunzhu saw that Luo Xinlan's face was a little moved, and he took her hand and said, "You have a room, so Yingzi can come back to see you from time to time, and if you get angry, you can hide for a while."
"I..." Luo Xinlan burst into tears again.
Really an emperor is not in a hurry to kill the eunuch. Gu Chunzhu sighed helplessly when he saw her appearance. Luo Xinlan, who is so charismatic and courageous, is looking ahead too much.
"Then I'm going home, think about it slowly. If Uncle Zheng's mother doesn't come to make a fuss, you'll be comfortable living here." In the voice of speaking, it is very lively to listen to.
As soon as the door was opened, he saw a man in an earth-colored jacket hugging An An and throwing it up high, and An An let out a "giggling" laughter.
The big-bellied woman standing next to the man is Aunt Zheng's daughter-in-law. It seems that this man is the son of Uncle Zheng. Gu Chunzhu has never seen him a few times before, but this time it seems that his appearance is three-fold similar to that of Uncle Zheng. .
A long face with a pair of thin eyes, a long nose, and a smile on his face, looking like Aunt Zheng when he smiles.
"Okay, don't throw Dezi, the child will have nightmares at night when he plays too much." Aunt Zheng had already stewed the duck and ran out of the stove, looking nervously at Zheng De's tossing in the air Ann.
Zheng De also listened to her mother's words and put An An down. The small hairs on An An's forehead were wet, "Uncle still wants to play, throw it away."
Gu Chunzhu went over and grabbed An An's little hand to stop the little girl from making a fuss, "Look at how tired you are, this hair is sticking together like yours."
"It's okay, it's okay, practice first, and I'll play with you when the baby is born." Zheng De squinted his eyes and smiled happily.
Seeing that what he said was so sincere, Gu Chunzhu couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing. He carried the basket on his back and greeted Xiaocheng, who had placed the paper kite in the open space outside, and hurriedly returned home.
"Mother-in-law told you to stay at home for dinner." It was Zheng De's daughter-in-law who came out to stop Gu Chunzhu from leaving. She supported her waist in one hand, and her belly was protruding greatly. She looked at it for seven or eight months.
Gu Chunzhu looked at her quiet and shy appearance, never expected to have such a powerful mother.
Thinking that the two children have eaten a lot of candied dates, how can they be kept at home for dinner, Gu Chunzhu politely refused, "No, seeing the stewed duck fragrantly, it will help you to replenish your body, you should eat more."
"Sister Chunzhu, I, I'll tell you the truth, Dezi and I don't look good. The old man said that when he had a baby in his stomach, if he ate at the same table with a good-looking baby, the baby in his stomach would look good too." Zheng De's daughter-in-law looked pleading and said sincerely, "I'll beg you this time, stay and have a meal."
She looked at An An, who was being pulled by Gu Chunzhu, and Xiao Cheng, who ran in with a reel. The two babies were both good looking, and they couldn't be found anywhere in the world.
Gu Chunzhu was in a dilemma, and this Zheng De's daughter-in-law used the word "beg", but it was a dilemma.
She pointed to the sky and said, "My man is still at home and has to wait for dinner to eat. If I ask my aunt to cook some ordinary meals next time, I will bring my two children to eat."
"Sister Chunzhu, just stay here, there is only a duck left and right, Juaner's belly is the first doll of our Zheng family, Jin Guizhi!" Zheng De laughed and called along with her daughter-in-law. sister.
He was hesitant to look at Gu Chunzhu, so he scratched his head and said, "Well, where do you live, I'll go tell my brother, I'll be back soon enough to have dinner."
"Just stay and have a meal, cough!" Uncle Zheng also came out of the room. He coughed a little and didn't come out just now, so as not to make the children sick.
This has been requested three times and four times, and Gu Chunzhu refused to go on, it seemed that she was inhumane, so she agreed.
Zheng De couldn't be too happy, and ran all the way to Xiaohetou Village to tell Su Wangqin.
"Yingzi and your mother also came to grandma's house to eat, and it was lively and lively together." Aunt Zheng picked up a plate of vegetables, and Yingzi frowned and ran in to tell her mother.
Gu Chunzhu put down the basket and squatted down to help Aunt Zheng pick vegetables. By the way, he brought out the fish and meat in the basket and asked Aunt Zheng to cook a piece, so as not to eat other people's meals in vain.
"It's up to your baby to eat our food, so that my grandson can look like your baby, how can I eat your baby." Aunt Zheng shook her head like a rattle.
Unexpectedly, there are so many things in this custom, Gu Chunzhu can only stuff the fish and meat back into the basket.
Gu Chunzhu helped to prepare a table of dishes before dark. Luo Xinlan and her daughter refused to come over. The elbow was about to be dislocated by Aunt Zheng, so she had to come and sit. Zheng De also went to notify Su Wangqin. back.
Nine people sat at the square table, but it was a very lively table full of people.
"Come on, An An eats duck legs!" Zheng De's daughter-in-law, seeing that she liked her daughter more, took a duck leg and put it in An An's small bowl, Gu Chunzhu hurried to block it.
With this resignation, An An and Zheng De's daughter-in-law each got a duck leg, and Xiao Cheng and Yingzi got a wing root.
There was a lively meal here, and in the dark of the night, two people walked hurriedly towards Aunt Zheng's house.
