I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

 Chapter 49 News

The woman smiled and shook her head, pointing to the sun that was resting against her forehead. She wanted to say that the sun was too strong now, so she had to wear a hat when traveling, otherwise she would get heat stroke. However, Wei Lan didn't understand what she meant. She was a little disappointed and smiled at Wei Lan. He smiled and walked away holding his stomach in one hand.

　　Until the woman walked away, Wei Lan did not look back. On such a hot day, do pregnant women have to go to the ground...?

It’s very hot right now. If something happens, wouldn’t it be...

 At any rate, someone helped me, right?

Thinking about it, Wei Lan smiled with relief, twisted out an unsightly straw hat strap, and followed the woman without forgetting to bend down to look for her.

What she was looking for was peppermint. She followed the woman for a while and actually found it.

 In a nook in the back mountain, perhaps due to the angle of the mountain, the sun and temperature here are much lower than elsewhere, a small patch of mint grew, and in addition, there were actually wild leeks growing!

Wei Lan grinned behind her ears, and after resting, she bent down to pick. She picked some mint, and didn't care whether it was washed or not. She pinched off a leaf and put it in her mouth. The cool and overbearing taste of mint hit her brain, and her whole body was filled with excitement. Everyone is sober.

Gu Chao walked into the yard. The sun was scorching hot at noon. He followed a large team of oxen and carts to carry millet. At this time, his wheat-colored skin was red from the sun, and his sweat was dripping like water.

"Grandma." Gu Chao called out, and went to the well in the backyard to fetch water for cleaning.

"You're back?" Grandma Gu was sitting on the threshold knitting straw sandals. When she saw that Gu Chao was back, she got up and poured a bowl of cold boiled water. When Gu Chao came from the backyard, wiping his hair, she handed over the water, "Brother Yang didn't follow. Come here together? Is there any news over there in the commune? "



Grandma Gu has always been worried about the landlord status of Gu Yang's family. Whenever Gu Chao goes to the commune, she always asks him to inquire about it. Now that she heard that there are still no signs of new policies, she can't help but feel a little disappointed.

Gu Chao turned away and looked at the straw sandals that Grandma Gu put on the table, and said, "There are enough straw sandals for this year. Grandma doesn't need to make so many."

Last winter there was nothing much going on at home. They knitted a lot of straw sandals at home, enough to wear them until this fall.

But looking at the size of the straw sandals, Gu Chao paused and asked, "Lanya's feet have grown?"

Grandma Gu was immediately diverted. She smiled and briefly talked about what happened in the morning. After speaking, she did not forget to sigh, "I didn't believe Lan Ya kept repeating her words before, but now I see that she is indeed a polite person."

 After washing a peach and handing it over to Gu Chao, Grandma Gu sat on the threshold again and began to knit straw sandals.

The Gu family's house is bright and bright, and behind it is a tract of bamboo forest that is very cool. Sitting on the threshold, the draft wind blows from the backyard, mixed with the fragrance of jasmine flowers and the sweet smell of ripe peaches, which is cool and comfortable.

Grandma Gu narrowed her eyes with a smile, and did not let go of her work as she spoke, "Tomorrow you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some cloth for the girl's family to wear. You have to choose a color. Wei Zhiqing is handsome and fair. I think Blue calico would be nice.”

"Yeah." Gu Chao responded in a low voice, his ears feeling a little warm for no reason. He took the half-knitted straw sandals from Grandma Gu, "Grandma, I can knit straw sandals. You go and take a rest, and I'll do the rest." Come."

Grandma Gu nodded and prepared to cook, but she was worried. Gu Chao warned her a few more times, "Wei Zhiqing has six-inch feet. You can knit your straw sandals according to the size of six-and-a-half inches."
