Chapter 39 Weird place
This is the first time Gu Shao has eaten salty rice.

Stuffy glutinous rice, mixed with simple ingredients, tastes surprisingly delicious.

So much so that after he finished a bowl, he felt that there was still more to say.

But Qiao Lianlian was already cleaning up the dishes, so he couldn't say anything more, resisting the desire to have another bowl, and stood up.

"You want to wash the dishes?" Qiao Lian was a little surprised, "That's fine, you wash it, I have to work."

She put the bowl and chopsticks in front of him, turned around and left.

Gu Shao, "..."

Things were going a bit wrong, but Qiao didn't give him a chance to set things right, and went straight into the kitchen, rushing in and out.

Gu Shao's refusal was suddenly speechless.

He lowered his head, looking at the pile of sticky bowls and chopsticks, with veins throbbing on his forehead.

It took him a long time to pick up the pile of bowls and chopsticks.

I went into the kitchen, found a clean basin, and scrubbed slowly and clumsily.

Gu Que couldn't bear it, and leaned over, "Father, how about I help you."

Gu Shaogang shook his head, his hands shook, and a porcelain bowl fell to the ground.

He quickly bent down to pick it up, but at least it wasn't broken, it was just a gap.

"It's okay." Gu Shao's voice was somewhat depressed, "It's just cleaning the dishes, I can still..."

Before finishing the rest of the sentence, the porcelain bowl fell again.

This time it was really broken.

Gu Que looked at her father without words, shook his head, knelt down and picked up the tiles, "Father, you'd better not wash them, they will be all broken later, and you won't be able to eat."

Gu Shao's cheeks were a little red.

After going through so many storms, now I can't even wash a bowl well, I really can't bear it.

"It's okay, dad, it's normal for a man not to wash the dishes." Gu Que observed his words and squeezed Gu Shao away, "Dad can make money, and we still need to rely on dad to make money to raise us."

With these words, Gu Shao's heart was full of irony.

With sharp hands, Gu Que quickly brushed out the bowl and put it on the wooden shelf to drain.

Qiao saw it again and again, but didn't say anything. He was still busy cleaning the items needed for fresh powder, cooking what should be cooked, and drying what should be dried.

Sixi Building uses a lot and the demand is tight. The boss told me yesterday that two catties must be sent today for use first.

Qiao repeatedly agreed.

I thought about making it yesterday, but it was delayed due to various things, so I have to speed up a little bit today.

"Mother, I'll help you." Gu Que finished washing the dishes and went to help cook the pot.

Gu Cheng went to grind the powder with his hands.

There is a large abandoned stone mill at home. Qiao Lianlian carefully cleaned it up and used it, which is much more convenient than grinding by hand.

It's just that the stone mill is too heavy, and it takes a lot of effort to push it.

Gu Shao saw it and immediately took over.

"You are too young to do this kind of physical work." He said, "Let me do it."

Gu Cheng didn't refuse, and changed his job to another place.

Gu Shao heaved a sigh of relief.

This family is finally something he can do, and only he can do.

Otherwise...he would always look useless.

Gu Shao didn't like this feeling.

……

The whole family was busy, and it was not until noon that the fresh noodles promised to Sixilou were made.

In order to reward this hard work, Qiao Lianlian deliberately stewed pork ribs, fried two side dishes, and steamed two small pastries.

The whole family was full of food, including Gu Shao.

He didn't know why Qiao's woman was so powerful. It was an unremarkable home-cooked dish, but she made it so delicious.

And it is very different from the banquet in the restaurant.

But Gu Shao couldn't tell what was different.

Later, after a long time, Gu Shao realized that this feeling is called the taste of home.

Of course, he doesn't know now.

After the family of seven finished their lunch, Qiao Lian packed some pastries and began to work in batches, "Lou'er's leg is not good, so he is recuperating at home. Cheng'er will go out with me. Can the four of you stay at home?"

Gu Que is very sensible. Although she also wants to go out with her mother, her younger brother still needs someone to take care of her.

She can only be at home.

Gu Zhong didn't have any objections, but he was a little reluctant to part with his stepmother.

There was only one Gu Ge, who cried "wow" when he heard this, "Is mother leaving, mother doesn't want Ge'er? Ge'er doesn't want to leave mother."

The poor little girl was so frightened that she had a nightmare all night yesterday, and she hasn't recovered from it until today.

Qiao Lian's heart was sore, he hugged the little girl, and said in a low voice, "Ge'er just follow me, she's a little scared."

The family was divided into two groups.

Gu Que, Gu Lou, and Gu Zhong stayed at home, while Qiao Lian took Gu Cheng and Gu Ge out.

As for Gu Shao, he seemed to be ignored again.

After hesitating again and again, he chose to follow behind Qiao Lianlian.

Qiao Lianlian ignored him and went straight to the intersection where the car was picked up, just in time to see Uncle Niu driving someone to Xiyang Town.

She hurriedly said, "Uncle, uncle wait for us."

Uncle Niu yelled to stop the donkey cart, "Little Qiao, where are you mothers going... Hey, who is this young man? Is it your relative?"

Qiao frowned again and again, always feeling that something was wrong.

Fortunately, Gu Shao said in time, "Uncle, I am Gu Shao."

"Gu Shao...Gu...the third son of the family?" Uncle Niu was shocked, "Aren't you...why?"

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm back. The previous news was a misunderstanding." Gu Shao followed Gu Cheng into the bullock cart with a smile.

The corners of Qiao Lian's mouth twitched, and he handed over five Wen to Uncle Niu.

"Hey, hey." Uncle Niu finally recovered from the shock, "Hey, it's good to be back, so Xiao Qiao's life will be easier, with someone to support her, so she won't be afraid of being bullied."

What he said made Gu Shao feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't know what to say.

"Uncle, it's time to catch the car." Qiao Lianlian interrupted the topic in time.

Uncle Niu responded cheerfully, and knocked on the donkey cart.

Half an hour later, Xiyang Town arrived.

The mother and the others got out of the car and walked skillfully through the market in the town.

"Mother, where are we going?" Gu Ge hugged his stepmother's neck and asked in a low voice.

"Go to Sixi Tower first." Qiao Lian glanced at the pots in the bamboo basket behind Gu Shao.

In the past, she carried the bamboo basket, but when she got out of the car today, Gu Shao didn't know what happened, but took the lead in carrying the bamboo basket.

Qiao Lianlian didn't want to rob him in the street, so he could only glance at it from time to time, for fear that he would accidentally drop the jar and ruin her business.

Just as she was looking, someone in front of her suddenly greeted her. Qiao turned her head again and again, and found that it was an acquaintance from Gu's Village, and quickly nodded with a smile.

When you meet the next acquaintance, you still have to nod.

This is the disadvantage of living in the village. If you don't say hello to these villagers, you will definitely have gossip in the future.

Gu Shao didn't say much all the time.

Qiao Lianlian didn't take it seriously at first, but when she was about to reach the street of Sixi Building, she suddenly thought that something was wrong just now.

Gu Shao was born and raised in the Gu family village, so Uncle Niu didn't know him, and other people in the village didn't seem to know him very well.

Could it be... isn't he Gu Shao?
