After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital
Chapter 74: housework
The moment when a child feels special, it probably starts when he gets extra favor from his elders.
Niuniu once felt a little guilty because of her grandmother's behavior. It was like she had it but her brothers and sisters didn't. Isn't this unfair?
But Mrs. Gu gave her a very powerful explanation: "Grandma's things can be given to anyone she likes. Is there anything fair or unfair about it?"
Of course, even though Mrs. Gu said this, she still knew how to hide her partiality. The partiality was only in such insignificant matters, but she still treated the children equally in major matters.
Niuniu pulled her grandma to the backyard and said, "I miss grandpa too."
Mrs. Gu immediately said: "Your grandpa is not at home. The old man went out to find food for the chickens."
Niu Niu was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she quickly cheered up and asked, "Have you not come back for so long? Have the chicks grown up?"
Mrs. Gu immediately became energetic and said, "Your chickens are growing really well, dear, grandma will take you to see them now!"
This group of chickens was raised by the sick chickens that Father Gu asked someone to beg for when Niu Niu first came to this house. According to common sense, none of them should be able to grow up, but now every one of them is very energetic. It's impossible to tell that they were once sickly chickens.
"Xiaohua, do you still remember me? I am Niu Niu!" Niu Niu said to one of the hens with bright fur.
The hen Xiaohua really seemed to understand. She turned around and said "cluck" to Niu Niu, then sat down. When she got up again, there was a freshly baked egg on the ground.
Mrs. Gu immediately said excitedly: "It's cold in winter, and chickens don't like to lay eggs anymore. They will lay eggs as soon as you come back. It really likes you!"
Niu Niu was so happy that her face turned red when she heard this.
Sister-in-law Gu, Chen Chunhua, carried a basin of pig food and poured it directly into the trough of the pig pen next to the chicken coop. She said with a smile: "Mom, our father is still good at raising chickens. Many families in the village follow our example of raising sick and weak chickens, and they don't even survive." ”
Mrs. Gu glanced at her sideways and said, "You still have the nerve to laugh at others, but you yourself did such a stupid thing."
Chen Chunhua smiled flatteringly at Mrs. Gu, and then said: "Mom, my second brother has passed the scholar examination, and our family's status is different from before. We need to be rich during the New Year, and we have to show off when visiting relatives and friends, otherwise Outsiders will laugh."
Mrs. Gu and Chen Chunhua have been mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for more than ten years. As soon as the eldest daughter-in-law sticks her **** out, she knows what she is going to do. She talks about showing off, but in fact her eyes are fixed on these chickens.
Mrs. Gu immediately turned down and said, "Don't think too hard about these chickens. They were raised by the old man for Niu Niu. They didn't use a grain of corn or a vegetable leaf. From beginning to end, they have nothing to do with you!" "
What Chen Chunhua saw was not lively chickens, but pieces of fragrant chicken. She watched helplessly as Father Gu raised a group of sickly chickens into what they are now. How could she be willing to give up such a huge profit? Once it reaches your mouth, it slips away.
"Mom, you are too partial to the second brother-in-law. The second brother gave away the wild boar that was brought back from the mountains indiscriminately just to save face. It's a shame that our first brother-in-law couldn't bear it. Now why are these chickens raised by father? The eldest and second child of our family is your own granddaughter. How much closer is she to this loser?"
Listening to what Chen Chunhua said, Mrs. Gu felt that all the blood in her body was rushing to her head. Her lips were trembling with anger, and her old body couldn't help but begin to sway.
Niu Niu was the first to notice the same thing about Mrs. Gu, and she burst into tears with a cry: "Grandma! Grandma, what's wrong with you! Don't scare Niu Niu! Niu Niu doesn't want these chickens anymore, Niu Niu only wants grandma to be well!"
Children crying loudly are always particularly sensitive to parents. The moment Gu Mingda and Zhang Yuniang heard the sound, they rushed to the backyard and hurriedly supported the shaky old lady Gu.
Gu Mingda has always been gentle, but now seeing Mrs. Gu become like this, he couldn't hold it back and asked Chen Chunhua: "Sister-in-law, what on earth did you say to make me so angry!"
Chen Chunhua huddled aside, with a guilty look on her face, and she was still denying: "I...I didn't say anything...I don't know why my mother suddenly felt uncomfortable..."
Gu Mingda saw that her answer was wrong, so he could only stamp his feet, looked at Zhang Yunniang, and asked: "Quickly stop the driver, and send my mother to the town to see the doctor first."
After they got off the carriage, they did not immediately let the driver return. Instead, following the custom of rural hospitality, they left the driver to drink tea at home.
The coachman stayed for a while to be polite and then drove away just now.
Zhang Yunniang always thought about her mother-in-law's kindness, so after hearing this, she quickly chased after her. Fortunately, the coachman was stopped at the entrance of the village to ask questions. The other party learned that the Gu family was shocked, so he turned the carriage back without saying a word.
It was almost dusk when Mrs. Gu was sent to the town.
The same old doctor from last time was still in the town. He still remembered Zhang Yunniang. After feeling Mrs. Gu's pulse, he injected a few needles on the spot and deliberated for a long time before writing out a prescription.
Seeing the serious look on the old doctor's face, Gu Mingda's heart felt as if it had been fried in a pan, and he asked: "Doctor, how is my mother?"
The old doctor sighed and said, "Fortunately, you delivered it in time. If it had been a little later, the old lady would probably have had a stroke."
When Gu Mingda heard this, he was still in disbelief. He remembered that my mother's body had always been strong. She was fine before he left home to take the exam. How could she suddenly reach this point?
Zhang Yuniang gently held Gu Mingda's hand. In the past, her husband always cared for and supported her. She rarely saw her husband be so vulnerable.
"Doctor, please prescribe the best medicine for my mother-in-law. We will find ways to pay for it. Please cure my mother-in-law." Zhang Yunniang repeatedly requested the old doctor.
Gu Mingda also kept nodding at the side, his eyes pleading.
The old doctor confirmed that the couple was sincere and said a few more words: "Your mother doesn't use any particularly expensive medicinal materials. She is old and cannot bear to be angry. She has been sulking a lot during this time. You, We should encourage her to relax and don't let her body get in trouble even if something doesn't work out for her. "
When Gu Mingda heard this, it was not the first time that Mrs. Gu was angry recently. He immediately turned to look at the pale-faced Mrs. Gu and asked: "Mom, what happened while I was away from home? Who is it that makes you angry?"
When Mrs. Gu heard this, a touch of bitterness overflowed from the corner of her mouth.
Gu Mingda looked at Niuniu, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, but still pressed against Mrs. Gu with a worried look on her face, and asked: "Niuniu, you are a good boy, tell Daddy what your aunt did in the backyard earlier. What?""
