Chapter 124 The whole person is in a crazy state
Chen Qinian was stunned for a moment, then said excitedly: "Sister Xiaoxi, how did you know this? Did my second uncle tell you?"
"No, we were having dinner at a pub in the city last night and heard the gossip there." Gu Xiaoxi told Chen Qinian truthfully.
"Then, what else did they say?" Chen Qinian asked nervously.
Gu Xiaoxi told Chen Qinian all the gossip she heard yesterday.
When Chen Qinian heard that his second uncle had arranged a marriage for him, he went crazy.
He rubbed his hair vigorously, looked at Sister Xiaoxi and asked, "Sister Xiaoxi, can I not get the needle today?"
"It's been many days, it's better to give you acupuncture." Gu Xiaoxi didn't want to delay Chen Qinian's recovery time.
"Well, can we get the acupuncture now?" Chen Qinian asked.
Gu Xiaoxi understood that Chen Qinian had no idea about the engagement and wanted to go back to confirm it. She didn't want to make things difficult for him and nodded in agreement.
When they returned to the yard, Gu Xiaoxi went to give Chen Qinian acupuncture before she had time to say anything to her parents.
After the injection, Chen Qinian took Chen San away in a hurry to take a carriage.
Chai was very curious why the boy was so anxious. After asking, she found out that his second uncle might have arranged a marriage for him.
Phew!
Xue couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Is he so afraid of getting married? Is that county magistrate's daughter a tigress?"
"I don't know about that, but wealthy families value matching, so it's normal for two families to marry each other." Gu Xiaoxi felt that this kind of family marriage was very normal.
In the evening, Chen Shiliu came back. After learning the whole story, he couldn't help but frown.
"Uncle Sixteen, do you want to go back and take a look too?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.
"This matter is not my business, just let his second uncle worry about it.
"But, with his temper, it would be good to find a wife to take care of him." Chen Shiliu sighed and carried a wild goat to the yard to clean it up.
Gu An put down the backpack and went over to help pack up the wild goats.
"Life in the mountains is still comfortable. I'll cook the mutton tonight. I guarantee it will be delicious." Chen Shiliu said happily.
"When will you be able to do this?" Gu An said casually.
"You'll get it if you eat more." Chen Shiliu replied.
When Gu Xiaoxi heard this, she realized that they were probably old acquaintances.
However, this is also good. It is safe enough to have someone with great martial arts skills at home. I just don’t know how long Uncle Sixteen can live here?
"Come and stay here when you are free. You can go hunting in the mountains every day." Gu An replied, and looked up to find his niece standing at the kitchen door. He didn't know how long she had been listening.
whee!
Gu Xiaoxi smiled at her uncle and looked at Gu Feng who was teaching her younger sisters to read.
I was in such a hurry yesterday that I forgot to show it to the child.
Take a closer look at the scar on Afeng's face. Even though the scar has fallen off, there is still a pink mark on it. If he doesn't continue to apply medicine, it will be almost impossible to fully recover.
"Mom, this is good, really!" Gu Feng said when he saw his mother hesitating.
"Okay!" Gu Xiaoxi saw that Afeng insisted on doing so, so there was no need to force him.
After seeing Afeng's injuries, she went back to her room to rest for a while.
When dinner was ready, Gu Bingxue came over and asked her to eat.
The evening meal was prepared by Chen Shiliu, a big pot of stewed mutton.
Gu Xiaoxi took a bite and couldn't help frowning.
The mutton smell has not been removed at all, how can I eat it?
The others picked up their chopsticks, took a bite, and frowned.
Chen Shiliu picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. He couldn't help but frown: "This, this is too disgusting. How about, how about eating some vegetables?"
"No need, I'll return the pot while you guys talk." Gu Xiaoxi picked up the mutton and walked to the pot.
Putting the mutton back into the pot, she dug out some seasonings from the cupboard.
It’s a pity that there is no sugarcane. It would be more delicious to cook mutton with sugarcane.
Just survive tonight and go up the mountain to have a look tomorrow.
After putting the mutton back into the pot, she took the pot to the fire rack next to her, and then put her specially made table on it and asked everyone to come here to eat.
"Oh, it's good to eat like this. The food won't get cold easily in winter." Chen Shiliu thought it was good to eat like this.
"Uncle Sixteen, try the taste." Gu Xiaoxi said.
Why……
Chen Shiliu picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece and put it into his mouth. He took a bite and found that the meat was tender and tasty, and the strong smell of mutton was gone. It tasted very delicious.
"It's delicious, Xiaoxi. You are so amazing. The taste has completely changed." He felt that one piece was not enough, so he ordered another one.
hehe……
When Gu An heard this guy praising his niece, he said proudly, "My niece's cooking skills are not much worse than those of the chefs."
"Yes, yes, Xiaoxi is amazing. Not only does he know medical skills, but he can also cook such delicious mutton. Let's get started. Let's get started. We can eat such a big-headed mutton for several days!" After saying this, Chen Shiliu put down his chopsticks and pulled Gu Feng to sit next to him.
Gu Feng looked at his mother, and when she nodded, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Gu Xiaoxi said, "I don't know when Qinian will come back, so I'll leave some for him."
"No need to keep him. That kid won't starve when he goes home." Chen Shiliu was not worried at all that the kid would starve when he went home, but he was a little worried that the kid would get hurt.
As soon as he arrived, his second brother mentioned the marriage proposal with the county magistrate's daughter, but such matters were not within his jurisdiction.
However, he knew that the boy didn't want to get married so soon and be tied down, so this time he could only wish for good luck.
hehe……
Gu Xiaoxi laughed after hearing this. It seems that this Sixteenth Uncle is also a foodie.
The men ate delicious mutton and drank some wine. The strong atmosphere of harmony made her feel very comfortable.
After eating the mutton, Gu Xiaoxi poured them a bowl of mutton soup that she had cooked separately.
After eating and drinking, everyone felt warm even though the wind was so strong at the foot of the mountain.
The three of them hadn't slept well these days after being away from home, so they went back to sleep.
After being away for a few days, Gu Xiaoxi missed her two caring daughters very much. Although she was very sleepy, she still hugged her daughters and told them stories.
The two children felt their mother's love and slowly fell asleep.
After they fell asleep, Gu Xiaoxi was too sleepy to open her eyes and was too lazy to go back to the space.
She slept until noon the next day. When she woke up, she saw that it was too late and was too lazy to grind tofu, so she simply carried the basket on her back and went up the mountain.
She remembered seeing wild sugarcane in the mountains before. Although it couldn't compare to sugarcane, it was also good for cooking mutton.
After cutting some wild sugarcane, she turned and entered the space to count the big wool she had brought back from the temple.
I’m rich, I’m rich!
There are 10,000 taels of gold, 50,000 taels of silver, and a thick stack of silver notes. I just don’t know if these silver notes can be cashed?
In a place like this, with so much money, you can just live out your retirement.
But they are currently poor, and suddenly becoming rich will definitely cause unnecessary trouble.
In this case, I can only pretend to be poor for the time being.
However, at this moment, a familiar voice sounded in my ears: "Well, the space can be upgraded. Now that you have money, do you want to try to upgrade it?"
