Chapter 17
It’s just that she was used to drawing with charcoal pens in her previous life. She is not used to drawing lines with a brush at this time. Fortunately, in her previous life, her grandfather not only taught her to write with a brush, but also taught her meticulous painting, so she is not very good at drawing. It was strenuous, but it was true that the speed was a bit slow. Just outlining the lines of the peacock took her a whole morning.

Gu Shaotong saw that she was engrossed in her painting, grandma was not at home, and guessed that it was almost noon, and the fourth uncle was going to come back for dinner, so the little girl rushed in with firewood, took a small stick and sat in front of the stove, warming I made a few cornmeal pancakes and cooked half a pot of porridge.

When Gu Qingyang came back from the field and saw that she was cooking, he couldn't help asking: "Shaotong, why are you cooking today? Where's your grandma?"

"Grandma has gone out!" Gu Shaotong stepped on the little stick, busy serving porridge for the fourth uncle.

"Oh." Gu Qingyang responded, expressing that he knew it, and then walked into the Xili room, wanting to take out the hot water on the stove to clean it, but saw Gu Qingmei sitting at the table intently and drawing something, so Walked over to take a look curiously.

Looking at the peacock she painted, he suddenly frowned and asked thoughtfully, "What kind of bird is this?"

"Huh? Fourth brother, you're back!" Hearing his voice, Gu Qingmei suddenly turned her head, and hurriedly put the brush in her hand into the brush washer. "Is it noon?"

Speaking of it, she is quite sad. She was 30 years old when she died in her previous life, but now she has traveled through time, but she has to call a boy who is only sixteen or seventeen years old.

"En!" Gu Qingyang nodded and smiled. "What exactly are you painting? It doesn't look like a phoenix, nor like an ordinary bird."

"Uh..." Gu Qingmei saw that even he didn't know what kind of bird it was, so naturally she couldn't admit that she knew, so she said. "I don't know what kind of bird it is, but I had a dream that day. I dreamed of this kind of bird and thought it was very beautiful, so I wanted to draw it."

"Oh..." Gu Qingyang didn't get to the bottom of this question, but asked. "Where's mother? It's noon, where did you go? Why haven't you come back yet?"

Hearing this, Gu Qingmei hurriedly told him about the third aunt's coming to propose marriage to him. Gu Qingyang's face turned livid after listening halfway through.

Seeing his appearance, Gu Qingmei knew that she had done the right thing today, so she comforted her: "Fourth brother, don't worry, mother has already dealt with this matter."

She said her idea again, and Gu Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at her deeply, "Meizi, thank you!"

"My brothers and sisters, what are you thanking? I looked at the third aunt, and I can guess what her granddaughter looks like. If you marry such a woman and come back, it would be better to let you be a bachelor for the rest of your life." She snorted coldly and gave up. The third aunt, mother and daughter. "By the way, mother is not at home and no one is cooking. What do you and father have for lunch?"

Gu Qingyang smiled and said: "When you think about cooking, my father and I will starve to death. Shaotong has already made it."

"Shaotong? Can she also cook?" Gu Qingmei couldn't help being surprised, but at the same time a little ashamed.

"Shaotong has always been very sensible, and he knew how to help with housework since he was very young. When my mother was cooking, she helped out every day." Gu Qingyang said, using a rag to pad his hands, picked up the copper pot on the stove, and went out to the wooden basin. He fetched water and washed his face, then he greeted Gu Qingmei and went to Dongli Room together, and sat down at the dining table to eat.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Gu Liu came back. When she came back, she had a smug face. It was obvious that things went smoothly.

The next morning, Sangu's grandma came and greeted Gu Liushi to go to Guanyin Temple together. Gu Yunbai didn't go to the field, but drove the two of them there in a donkey cart.

Gu Yunbai has always been a reticent man, just a talkative gourd. He never cared about the short-sighted things of his parents. Except for doing farm work, he went out to earn money. Gu Liushi has the final say on all the big and small things in the family. , let him do whatever he wants.

Guanyin Temple is about seven or eight miles away from Gujiazhuang. It is built at the foot of a mountain. In front of it, a river like a jade belt has been formed, which is an excellent geomantic treasure land.

Gu Liushi and Sangu's grandma got off the donkey cart, leaving Gu Yunbai to watch the cart. The two entered the mountain gate, found Zhang Blind who was specialized in fortune-telling at the gate of the temple, and reported the birthdays of Gu Qingyang and Fang Xiaoxiu.

Blind Zhang is about 60 years old this year. His head is full of white hair. He was born blind. He was originally a foreigner. He didn’t know who he learned the fortune-telling skills from. He wandered here more than 40 years ago. The former abbot of Guanyin Temple looked at him with pity. , so I left him here to set up a small stall, and let him tell fortunes to others, and he can also make a living. I didn't expect that people from all over the world said that he was accurate, and he married a wife and gave birth to a child over the years.

Hearing the horoscopes of the two, Zhang Blind looked like an outsider, shook his head for a long time, then showed a regretful expression, and said: "Big fierce, big fierce, two sisters-in-law, please forgive me, this This girl's horoscope is excellent, she has good fortune, wealth and longevity. If she can find a good family, she will have a family full of children and grandchildren, but she is incompatible with this young man's horoscope. There will be a bloody disaster, and it will be extremely difficult for the heirs, and maybe even one corpse and two lives!"

"Ah?" Sangu's grandma was so frightened that she lost her soul when she heard what he said. "Blind Zhang, is what you said true or false? Our Xiaoxiu has a thin waist and a big butt. It looks like a good child. How could she kill two people?"

Blind Zhang was questioned, and immediately showed displeasure, "Matchmaker Gu, you are also my regular customer, and you usually use the horoscope to match me. Is what I said inaccurate?"

"Uh..." Grandma Sangu heard that this was indeed the case, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed. She only saw Gu Qingyang as a candidate for her grandson-in-law, but now Zhang Blind said that the two were incompatible with each other. She really couldn't accept it.

Gu Liu smiled secretly, but she persuaded her: "Grandma, third aunt, don't be sad. Blind Zhang has already said that your family's Xiaoxiu has a good life, but my fourth child is not so lucky."

"Forget it, forget it, if this is the case, then treat it as if I never said it!" Grandma Sangu made a decision irritably. "I still have something to do, I'll go first, big sister, go back by yourself."

The third aunt said, twisting her body like a mallet, she hailed a donkey cart at the gate of Guanyin Temple, and went home.

Gu Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and said to blind Zhang, "Uncle Zhang, thank you very much today."

Blind Zhang stroked the gray beard under his jaw with his hands, and said with a smile: "Young lady, you don't have to be polite, since you have spent money, I will let you get what you want, and judging by her granddaughter's horoscope, she is really a vulgar person. Si marries her, and there will be no peace in the family in the future. Let me give you a divination. Look at the horoscope of your fourth son. This son has a unique life style and outstanding literary talent. He will definitely be named on the gold list in the future. He is a person of great fortune. Moreover, he has become a red luan, and he will marry a virtuous wife in October at the latest."
