"Grandma, don't cry."
Niuniu carefully handed over the handkerchief she carried with her.
The house was in a mess, and the little girl's mood was inevitably affected.
Grandma Gu wiped her face with the handkerchief, and stopped crying. Instead, she cursed casually: "Two people who don't know how to appreciate blessings! God feeds them but they don't even know to open their mouths!"
Niuniu didn't know that grandma was scolding her two sons, she just thought she was scolding the two people in the kitchen, and quickly covered her ears to avoid listening.
Old Lady Gu was startled, and gently pulled the little girl's hand off, and asked worriedly: "Why are you covering your ears? Are you uncomfortable? Are your ears itchy?"
Niuniu shook her head and said: "A gentleman should not listen to what is not proper. My elder brother taught me."
Old Lady Gu didn't quite understand this sentence, but she didn't stop her from praising: "Niuniu is really obedient. Your elder brother is well-educated. It's right to listen to him more."
Niuniu's mouth curved up, and she said: "Dad's knowledge is the best at home. Dad got the first place in the scholar exam. No one else can pass him! Dad is very good!"
The one being praised was her own son, and Old Lady Gu was also proud, saying: "Yes, your dad has the best knowledge. I will listen to him in the future."
Old Lady Gu looked at Niuniu with relief. Every time she saw this child, her mood would get better, and now was no exception. After letting Niuniu accompany her for a while, Old Lady Gu felt that the heaviness in her heart seemed to gradually dissipate.
"My dear, is your dad really planning to move to the county?" Old Lady Gu asked softly again.
Although Niuniu didn't know about this decision in advance, since Gu Mingda said so, she nodded vigorously: "Grandma, since Daddy said it, it must be true. He won't lie to you."
Old Lady Gu looked around the courtyard. This is where she has lived for most of her life. She was really reluctant to leave suddenly.
More importantly, she was a country girl and had only been to the city a few times. She was away from her familiar environment and went there. She was afraid of embarrassing her son and being laughed at by others. She was inevitably timid.
She couldn't show this fear in front of her son and daughter-in-law, so she could only talk to her granddaughter.
"When we get to the county, we have to buy firewood, and everything costs money. The expenses are too high. Otherwise, I'd better stay in the countryside. You can come back to see me occasionally." Old Lady Gu said.
Niuniu tilted her little head and said, "There's no shortage of money at home."
"Huh?" Old Lady Gu was stunned.
Niu Niu said, "Dad said that he didn't fight with his uncle and uncle because he didn't lack money. Grandma, I'll tell you something in secret."
Grandma Gu leaned over to listen.
"We opened a shop in the county." Niu Niu whispered.
Grandma Gu's eyes widened in shock, and then she calmed down. She looked at Niu Niu suspiciously and said, "My dear, did you remember it wrong?"
Niu Niu was anxious and said, "Grandma, I remembered it right. The shop is on Yuanbao Street. It is now managed by Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu is my mother's godsister. The shop sells braised food."
Seeing the child's voice getting louder and louder, Grandma Gu hurriedly covered her mouth and said softly, "Okay, Grandma believes you. You can't tell others, okay?"
Niu Niu nodded.
Grandma Gu didn't believe it at first, but the child said more and more details, and now she is half-believing and half-doubting.
Children are not sure about their mouths. If the first and third wives know about this, I'm afraid they will be angry again. Who knows what trouble they will cause.
"You are a little person, but you know a lot." Old Lady Gu praised.
Niu Niu likes to be praised the most. Hearing this, she puffed up her little chest and said with a little pride: "Grandma, I bought the recipe for the braised food."
Old Lady Gu asked carefully, and after hearing the whole story, she couldn't help but be surprised.
"Although I bought the recipe, thanks to my father's cleverness, otherwise we would have thought it was a piece of waste paper." Niu Niu said shyly.
Old Lady Gu was surprised to hear such a situation, and couldn't help asking: "You know to bargain when buying things from an old beggar. Such a little kid, you are not afraid at all."
Niu Niu didn't think much, and replied casually: "Grandma, what's there to be afraid of? Mom is by my side. She loves me so much and will protect me."
Old Lady Gu thought of her own entanglement and asked again: "Niu Niu is afraid to follow your parents to the capital city?"
Although Niu Niu is young, she remembers the happy memories very clearly.
"When I first entered the city, I was a little scared. I didn't dare to look around. Some people laughed at us, but my father told us that if we wanted to look, we should look openly..."
Old Lady Gu listened to her granddaughter talking about her experience of entering the city, and looked at the little girl's face full of security. For some reason, her heart also settled down. She couldn't help thinking that Niuniu, who was only five years old, was not afraid. She had lived for so many years and followed her own son to the city to enjoy happiness. What else should she be afraid of?
Niuniu stretched out her little hand and put it on Old Lady Gu's hand, saying: "Grandma, every time you frown and are unhappy, your parents are very worried. In the future, when you enter the county, Niuniu promises to be well-behaved and will never make you unhappy."
Hearing this, Old Lady Gu's heart softened and said: "Our good girl is the best girl in the world. How could she make Grandma angry?"
Gu Mingda didn't know the conversation between the grandma and grandson. He just saw that his mother's mood had obviously improved a lot during dinner, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
When his mother was free, Gu Mingda took the time to tell her about the shop in the city.
"That's a shop that Yunniang opened with someone else. Yunniang holds 30% of the shares, and Niuniu holds 30% of the shares. Because I didn't use the family's money, I didn't tell you before." Gu Mingda said apologetically.
Old Mrs. Gu had heard about it from Niuniu before, so she was not surprised at this time. She just said: "The recipe belongs to Niuniu, and it shouldn't have been mixed into the public."
Gu Mingda was afraid that the old lady would be scared after moving to another place, so he said: "There are many things to do in the shop, and I will have to trouble you to help."
When Old Mrs. Gu heard that she had to help, she immediately cheered up: "Okay, okay, it's good to have something to do."
After the separation, the atmosphere at home did not improve much. The friction between the first and third rooms continued, and they all tried their best to make a big move in selling tofu.
The friendship between the children was not affected, but they still didn't like the weird atmosphere at home and didn't like to stay at home all day.
There is a big tree at the entrance of the village, and the children in the village like to play hide-and-seek there.
"Ten, nine, eight... three, two, one, Third Brother, Sister Daya, I'm here to find you!"
Niuniu smiled, and just as she put down her hands covering her eyes, she was so scared that she almost jumped up.
But Zhang Guangzong quickly covered her mouth, and seeing that there was no one around, he picked up the little girl and ran away.
