Stepmother dressed as five villains

Chapter 47

"I don't dislike you for anything, but I think you're not too old, maybe you can try to start over." Qiao Lianlian tried to keep his tone tactful.

Gu Shao's mouth twitched.

He also said that he didn't dislike it, the expression in his eyes was about to overflow his eyes.

Gu Shao wanted to bite his gums to pieces, so he reluctantly said, "No, it's enough to cultivate Chenger well."

If possible, Gu Shao really wanted to rush to this woman's face and tell her that he is not a waste.

He can write poems and songs, and was once a romantic figure.

He is capable of literary and military skills, and he has his own way to make money.

But he can't say.

Gu Shao lowered his head weakly for the first time.

Qiao Lianlian didn't want to force him, she just made a casual suggestion, "Since you don't want to, then forget it."

The mother and daughter walked into the small courtyard, greeted Mr. Li, gave Gu Cheng a few more instructions, turned around and walked towards the front street.

Gu Shao lowered his head and followed behind her like a defeated chicken.

"Mother, where are we going?" Gu Ge hugged Qiao Lianlian's neck, and asked in a childlike voice, "Are we going to deliver something to Uncle?"

Although the little girl is not very old, she can be regarded as remembering the shopkeeper of Sixi Tower after coming down a few times.

I also know that my mother will send things to the sheep-bearded uncle in Sixilou every day.

"Not going for the time being." Qiao Lianlian was talking, but his eyes were fixed on the signboards of the shops on both sides of the road.

When she saw a shop selling masonry bricks, her eyes lit up, and she walked in with the child in her arms.

Gu Shao realized after a short pause.

The Gu family's old house is dilapidated and precarious.

If you want to live a good life, you must first live well.

Gu Shao himself has always had the idea of ​​building a house, but he did not expect this woman to be so far-sighted.

It made him a little surprised.

Although Xiyang Town is small, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the foundation of people's livelihood, so there are still materials for building houses.

Qiao Lian walked around the store and probably knew the basic prices.

A mistress came up to greet her and asked her what she needed.

Qiao Lianlian shook his head, turned around and exited the shop.

Gu Shao followed with some doubts, thinking that Qiao Lianlian was going to shop around, but the woman turned around and got into the donkey cart in Huijia Village.

Gu Shao also had to follow.

On the way, he asked Qiao Lianlian in a low voice, "But the things in that store are too expensive?"

Qiao repeatedly pursed his lips, "The quality is too poor."

What she wants to build is a strong nest that can live for a long time and can shelter from wind and rain.

At least it had to be a big tiled house made of blue bricks, but the store was mostly made of wood and mud bricks, which didn't meet Qiao Lianlian's requirements.

Gu Shao nodded thoughtfully.

The family of three returned to Gujia Village.

Thankfully, maybe it didn't take long to come and go this time, or maybe the Gu family was really beaten and honest. This time, the entrance of the old house was very calm, and there were no strange people.

Qiao pushed open the door again and again, and Gu Que was already drying things quickly with his hands and feet.

Seeing her coming, the eldest girl looked proud, "Mother, I've already learned how to bake things, I'll do the work in the future, and you and Dad will be responsible for grinding the flour."

Qiao repeatedly nodded in relief, before turning around, he saw Gu Shao silently holding the putter of the stone mill.

This man's eyesight is improving.

Putting Xiao Ge'er in his arms aside to play with Xiaopang, Qiao repeatedly washed his hands and began to throw things into the stone mill.

Gu Shao was in charge of pushing the roller, grinding all the baked, dry and brittle things into fine powder.

After Qiao Lianlian prepared according to a certain ratio, he sieved it again with a fine mesh, continued to polish the coarse ones, and packed the fine ones.

The family was busy until noon, and the fresh noodles promised to the shopkeeper of Sixilou were made.

"Why don't I go deliver things by myself."

After lunch, Gu Shao took the initiative to apply for the task.

Qiao Lian glanced at him, "Master Zhao only trusts me, it's better for me to go."

"Let me go." Gu Shao insisted rarely.

Qiao paused for a moment, thinking that there was a wild boar waiting to be pulled down on the mountain, so he nodded, "Okay, but we must send it there carefully."

Don't make any fools.

Gu Shao patted his chest, with a look of "I will cover everything for me".

Qiao Lianlian filled five catties of fresh noodles, packed them, put them in a bamboo basket, and handed the bamboo basket to Gu Shao.

Gu Shao's hand froze.

In the countryside, men seldom carry bamboo baskets, but women carry them.

But there is no other container at home, so I just hold Qiao Lianlian with my hands and feel worried. This is fresh powder made all morning.

Gu Shao recalled Mr. Li's question at the door, gritted his teeth hard, took the bamboo basket, and put it on his back.

He was tall and slender, but Qiao Lianlian looked a little smaller when he carried a rather large bamboo basket on his body, a bit like...a scholar carrying a hoe.

It feels a bit inconsistent.

Just as Qiao Lianlian wanted to say, why not carry the bamboo basket, the man hurried out of the old house with his head down.

It was the first time that Qiao Lianlian had to swallow the words in his mouth.

"Mother, it's really ugly for Dad to carry this bamboo basket." Gu Que sighed beside him, "It's better to buy a big woven frame for Dad, it's not ugly to carry, and it can hold things."

"If Mother gets tired of holding Xiao Ge'er, she can still put her in the frame for Dad to carry."

Qiao repeatedly rubbed the eldest daughter's head, dumbfounded.

This is a very cheating child.

"Cheng'er went to school, Lou'er has bad legs, Ge'er is too young and can only stay at home, Que'er and Zhong'er are left, who of you will follow me up the mountain to cut pork." Qiao repeatedly asked.

All the children's eyes lit up.

"Mother, I, I, I will go." Gu Que raised his hand enthusiastically.

"No, I'll go, I'll go." Gu Louming knew he couldn't go, and he had to live with his mouth.

Gu Zhong's eyes were bright, but he knew that his eyesight was not good, and going there would only be a burden, so he didn't say a word.

Qiao Lianlian couldn't see her younger son like this the most. She bent down and hugged the handsome little boy into her arms, and announced loudly, "Just take Zhong'er, next time Que'er."

Gu Que pursed her lips, a little dissatisfied, but her mother told her to bring her next time, so she could only sit aside with her mouth flattened.

Qiao Lianlian went to Aunt Liu's house next door to borrow a flat car.

Since Aunt Liu spoke up for justice last time, the relationship between the two families has become better and better, and borrowing something is almost commonplace.

Aunt Liu didn't even come out, she lay lazily on the bed and shouted, "Xiao Qiao, just take it away."

"Hey, thank you, auntie, I'll bring the meat back to auntie." Qiao Lian replied with a smile.

Aunt Liu shook her head, lamenting that the girl was honest, and at the same time feeling grateful for having such a good neighbor.

The so-called flat car is a two-wheeled vehicle whose entire body is flat.

There are two handlebars at the front, and a shoulder strap is added. People can walk forward in the direction of the handlebar while wearing the shoulder strap and holding on to the handlebar.

Some people will hang the shoulder straps on the donkey, so that the donkey will carry the cart with all its strength, and it will become the donkey cart that farmers often make when they go to town.

Qiao Lianlian didn't have a donkey, so he could only act as a donkey by himself, hanging the shoulder straps on his body, holding the handlebars with both hands, leaning slightly, and leading the whole car forward.

Gu Zhong was sitting at the front of the car, looking at his mother's back, wondering what he was thinking.

The couple soon arrived at the trapping cage.

After Qiao Lian put the flat car away, his son got off and carefully moved to the cage.

I thought I would see an exhausted wild boar, but the things inside made the pupils of the two girls dilate in an instant.
