Chapter 433 Guilty
Gu Jiujiu was feeling guilty right now, so she hummed softly, then she walked to the table and sat down.

Yan Shi came from here. Seeing Gu Jiujiu like this, she pursed her lips and smiled, and she quickly went to bring them the warm food in the pot to the table.

Gu Jiujiu looked at the dishes on the table, and it was obvious that they had never been eaten.If she guessed right, these dishes must have been set aside for them by Yan Shi early in the morning.

Sure enough, just as Gu Jiujiu was thinking, Yan looked at her with a wry smile on her face, "Xiaojiu, seeing that you and your son-in-law haven't come, mother divided half of the dishes in the bowl and gave them to Wen Zai." Mother added firewood to the stove, so the food won’t cool even if it’s warm in the pot. These things are boiling hot, so eat them while they’re hot. Eat more, it’s good for your body.” After finishing speaking, Yan Shi looked at the young couple and smiled ambiguously.

When Gu Jiujiu heard Yan's last words, his face became hot, and it became extremely hot.

However, fortunately, Yan Shi didn't say anything else. After saying that, she turned around and left to wash the pot and boil water.

There are quite a few dishes on the table, there are four or five of them, and these dishes are Gu Jiujiu's usual favorites.

Shen Kuo peeled a crab for Gu Jiujiu, and while feeding her, asked casually, "Xiao Jiu, have you found all the people who make persimmons today?"

"It's all done." Gu Jiujiu nodded and told Shen Kuo, "In the morning, just after you went to the yamen, a lot of women and wives came from the village, and they all came to our house to sign up to make persimmons. There were a lot of people here, so my mother and I chose those who worked hard to stay."

After Gu Jiujiu finished speaking, Shen Kuo didn't ask any more questions, and peeled another crab and fed it to her.

After a simple meal, Gu Jiujiu and Shen Kuo went back to the house to rest.

The next day, Uncle Gu came early in the morning. He was still the same as yesterday, and when he arrived, he helped Gu Jiujiu and the others move some of the persimmons that were in the woodshed and put them in the yard.

After Uncle Gu moved the persimmons, the women and mothers-in-law of the village also came one after another.

Everyone had been making persimmons for a day yesterday. Today, Gu Jiujiu didn't need to say anything more. After they sat down in the yard, they began to prune and peel the persimmons in the baskets.

Gu Jiujiu and Yan Shi are still the same as yesterday, they just watched from the sidelines, and remind them if someone does something wrong.

Compared to yesterday, Gu Jiujiu and Yan found that almost everyone could do it today, and few people did it wrong.

Soon, the day will pass.

At night, when Uncle Gu moved the baskets in the yard back to the woodshed, Gu Jiujiu found that the persimmons in the woodshed had already been half cooked.

If this goes on like this, Gu Jiujiu secretly thought that in three days, all the persimmons in the firewood room would be ready.

Uncle Gu finished moving the baskets in the yard one by one, and Yan casually handed him the handkerchief that Uncle Gu used yesterday to wipe off his sweat.

Uncle Gu took the handkerchief from Yan Shi and wiped the sweat stains on his face and hands with it, then he looked at Yan Shi honestly and smiled, "Sister-in-law, if you don't have anything to ask Fifth Brother If I do, then I'll go back first, Brother Zhuang is very skinny, his mother boiled a pot of hot water last night, but he accidentally knocked over the pot, and his two little hands were red and swollen. Now go back and see if he's better. If the swelling on his hands doesn't subside, I have to take him to the pharmacy in the market at noon tomorrow to grab some herbs for reducing swelling."
