Chapter 6

Gu Xinxin nodded and said, "Yes, it's that weak. If you have the ability, go to the county town and ask a doctor."

Gu Chen was anxious: "Brother Daniu! This egg thing..."

Gu Xinxin looked at Old Lady Gu, who lowered her eyes and pretended to be deaf. The two sets of clothes were given to her in vain. But Gu Xinxin couldn't let it go. She moved closer to Old Lady Gu and whispered in her ear: "Grandma, didn't you eat the eggs too? My stepmother said that eggs can't be eaten for free. What do you think?"

Everyone has eaten it, so should Mrs. Gu also be punished?

Old Mrs. Gu shuddered, looked up at Gu Chen, and then at Gu Daniu: "Daniu, Mom is old now, can't she even eat an egg?"

Gu Daniu wasn't curious: "Why can't I eat? Didn't I ask anything? Okay, okay, I've already said forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Since Xinxin is weak, come learn the horse stance with me tomorrow. Later, I'll teach Xiangrong how to hunt. You can learn as much as you can."

Anyway, he didn't expect Gu Xinxin to go hunting, and he didn't know any other skills, so he could only let Gu Xinxin learn hunting from him.

He was a hunter, and he was in good health, at least stronger than 80% of the men in the village. It was obvious that hunting could also strengthen one's body.

Gu Xinxin was delighted and tried to build a good relationship with Gu Daniu. She quickly pushed the remaining things over and said, "This is for Dad and Grandma. Dad yelled at me when I walked in just now. I was scared and forgot about it. Now I remember it."

Before Gu Daniu could say anything, Gu Wenshu rushed over and said, "I just smelled something very sweet. Is it a snack?"

Gu Qiuhe also came over and stretched his head to look at the table.

Gu Daniu opened it and distributed some snacks to Gu Wenshu and Gu Qiuhe. He also gave the pork to Gu Chenshi: "We'll have dumplings tomorrow and some leeks."

Gu Chen's face was gloomy, but it was dark and she couldn't see clearly, so Gu Daniu didn't care at all.

Gu Xinxin called Gu Qiuhe: "Help me boil water for a bath, and I'll give you a hairband."

Gu Qiuhe was overjoyed: "Really?"

Gu Xinxin nodded, stretched out her hand and took out a red hairband and waved it in front of Gu Qiuhe. It was a gift from the store when she bought clothes. She kept one for herself and used the remaining one as feed - if you want cows and horses to work, don't you have to give them some feed?

Gu Chen was so angry that she was about to die. Could it be that her daughter was Gu Xinxin's slave?

She was about to call Gu Qiuhe when Gu Xinxin said, "If you help me carry water, I'll give you a purse."

It was a gift for buying clothes for Gu Daniu, but she kept it. Anyway, it was impossible to ask her to pay for it again, so she could only make the best use of it. She took off all the accessories that were given when buying clothes.

In addition to the hairband purse, there are also two sachets.

Gu Wenshu was a little hesitant. He was a boy and not like girls who liked accessories.

Gu Xinxin continued, "You can put snacks, coins, and the small stones you pick up..."

Gu Wenshu nodded immediately: "I'll get you some water."

Gu Xinxin turned to look at Gu Chen and raised her eyebrows slightly. Gu Chen put her hands on her chest and called out to her two children, "Gu Wenshu, Gu Qiuhe, you two come back here!"

Gu Wenshu glanced at his mother, then ran to the kitchen: "I'll go get some water."

Gu Qiuhe also quickly followed her brother: "I'm going to boil some water. It just so happens that the firewood is still burning over there, so I don't have to light a fire."

Gu Daniu looked at Gu Xinxin, snorted, stood up and went into the house with the new clothes. Now that the matter was settled, he was going to try on his new clothes.

Gu Chen followed in: "Brother Daniu..."

"You better be careful in the future and stop talking nonsense. Xinxin is old enough to criticize others. If you ruin her reputation, I'll show you how I'll deal with you." Gu Daniu said as he changed his clothes. Gu Chen was so angry: "Brother Daniu, do you really believe what she said?"

Gu Daniu paused before saying, "What does it matter whether I believe it or not? What matters is that she can get these things back."

In other words, she has ways to get money.

No matter how she got it, it was her ability.

"But what if she did something bad and implicated our family..." said Gu Chen. She said that she saved her parents' daughter, but what if she offended her parents?

Gu Daniu shook his head: "No, she loves Xiang Rong very much. As long as Xiang Rong is at home, she has to protect the Gu family."

Gu Chen was at a loss for words, so Gu Daniu stretched out his arms and said, "Come and see if my arms are tight."

Gu Chen took a look and said unhappily, "No, it's you who didn't do it well."

She reached out to help Gu Daniu pull his clothes and smooth them out, then said, "From now on, all the housework will be handed over to her. Don't accuse me of asking her to do too much work. If a girl can't do housework, she will be looked down upon by her future husband's family."

Gu Daniu nodded, neither saying yes nor no.

Gu Chen took it as Gu Daniu's agreement.

Gu Xinxin slept very well that night. Firstly, the medicinal herbs had a calming effect, and secondly, she didn't have so many worries in her mind, such as having her money stolen.

However, before dawn the next day, there was a knock on the window: "Xinxin, Xinxin, get up, it's time to make breakfast."

Gu Xinxin lifted the quilt to cover her head, pretending that she didn't hear it. But the knocking on the window continued, bang bang bang, and Gu Xinxin raised her foot and kicked Gu Qiuhe.

Gu Qiuhe was impatient: "What are you doing?"

Hearing the sound coming from the window again, he reached out and pushed Gu Xinxin: "Mom is calling you, hurry up and get out, don't delay my sleep here."

Gu Xinxin kicked Gu Qiuhe again. Gu Qiuhe jumped up from the bed and glared at Gu Xinxin. Gu Xinxin sneered, "Why, you want to fight?"

Without waiting for Gu Qiuhe to speak, Gu Xinxin rushed over, held Gu Qiuhe's head with one hand, patted her on the back twice with the other hand, then carried her to the door, opened the door and pushed her out - Gu Qiuhe was only seven years old.

Even though Gu Xinxin usually didn't have enough to eat, she ate very well yesterday. The difference in body shape still allowed her to stand firm against Gu Qiuhe.

Gu Qiuhe was pushed out, and when she saw Gu Chenshi, she burst into tears: "Mom, she hit me!"

Gu Chen's eyes were red with anger. She turned around and was about to rush in, but when she bumped into the door, it didn't open - Gu Xinxin had locked the door from the inside again.

"Open the door, you little bitch, open the door for me!" Gu Chen raised her hand and knocked on the door. There was a crackling, clattering, and clanging sound. Gu Xinxin was lying on the bed yawning. She was really sleepy, but because of this trouble that disturbed her sweet dreams, she couldn't sleep. She wasted this beautiful morning light.
