Gu Yizhou was very happy to hear that. "Auntie, I will make a lot of money in the future and buy you a lot of things. I am already in the third grade and I skipped a grade. My dad has already found a good school for me. I will be able to go to school when school starts."
He was very happy. If he went to college, he would truly grow up and be able to make money. He would use the money to buy a lot of things for Luo Xingci. In his heart, Luo Xingci was like his own mother, even closer than his own mother.
Thinking of the woman who abandoned him, he really deserved to die. He shouldn't have compared her with Luo Xingci. That woman was not even worthy of carrying Luo Xingci's shoes. In fact, that woman came back to find him and said she wanted to take him away, but his father saw her and drove her away.
"Okay, then you have to study hard, okay? Only by studying hard can you find a good job, and you will also learn a lot of knowledge, and then you can find a beautiful wife."
Gu Yizhou's face turned red. "I don't want to find a wife. I want to stay with you, aunt, all my life. I will also be filial to you and take care of you in your old age." He is a grateful person, and he will remember Luo Xingci's kindness to him.
Luo Xingci smiled. In fact, she hadn't done anything to move him so much. She just cooked a few meals for him. What's more, Gu Zhihe paid for those meals, so it wasn't a big deal.
Meihua saw Luo Xingci was a little dazed, she looked carefully and realized that it was really Luo Xingci, "Xingci, when did you come back? You didn't even tell me when you came back, you are so mean, I will be angry if you do this again next time."
Seeing this, Luo Xingci immediately went up to her and took her arm and acted coquettishly, "Aunt, I just came back. Are you really going to be mad at me? I was thinking of inviting you to my house for dinner later. I have researched a few new dishes and wanted you to help me try them out. I didn't expect you to be mad at me. Woo woo woo, I am so sad."
Aunt Meihua nodded her head and said, "You, you only know how to make me happy. I'll go over later. I need to take these dishes back first. Tongtong is at work today, and I'm alone at home. When I saw you come back, I was thinking of taking you to my house for dinner. Since you said you would treat me, I'll reluctantly agree."
Luo Xingci chuckled, "Then I'll go back and prepare things first. But there will be one more person at home later, and Yizhou will come over for dinner as well." Gu Yizhou had just returned, and there was no one to look after him at home, so it was very unsafe. They should come over for dinner together.
Gu Yizhou was so happy to hear that, "Auntie, I like you so much." He must help aunt with the work later, and he will work for aunt in the future. When he finds a wife, he will let his wife help aunt with the work. If she is unwilling to work for aunt, then he will not marry her.
"Auntie likes you, too. I'll make you a sweet and sour fish later. I haven't had it for a long time. I'll also make you a stir-fried rabbit meat and some seasonal vegetables. It will be enough for the three of us."
Thinking of sweet and sour fish, Luo Xingci's saliva was about to flow out. Not only she was drooling, but also Gu Yizhou. He hadn't eaten this dish for a long time since he left the compound. He would have to eat a few more bites later.
After Aunt Meihua took the things back, she immediately rushed over and said, "There's nothing left at home, so I brought some bacon and dried fish. What delicious food are you going to make later? What new dishes have you come up with?"
"Sweet and sour fish and stir-fried rabbit meat, these two are my new inventions. The ingredients are a little different from the previous ones, but the names of the dishes are the same." She spent several days researching in the space to come up with these.
Aunt Meihua rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, I'll help you. Yizhou, go wash the vegetables. Wash them all clean. And wash the green onions, too."
Gu Yizhou nodded, picked up the basket and bucket and went out to fetch water.
"This child is quite obedient. I've heard people talking about this child in this compound. He's really pitiful. But I also heard that his mother came back to look for him. I don't know what she was thinking. She didn't want him at the beginning, so why did she come back after so many years?"
Luo Xingci really didn't know that the woman had actually come back. She turned her head to look at Aunt Meihua and asked, "She came to the compound? When did she come to the compound?" She frowned. In fact, she didn't like Gu Yizhou's mother very much, but she was her biological mother after all. If she came to ask for the child back, she would have no way to stop her.
But Gu Zhihe is not at home now, so she will help look after him. If that doesn't work, she will ask her leader to handle it.
"She came here a few days ago. I don't know where she got the news. She heard that Gu Zhihe was on a mission, so she wanted to come here and secretly take the child away. But the child hasn't come back yet. She made a fuss here for a while and was driven away by Commander Xu. Commander Xu said that if she comes again next time, she will be locked up in the bureau. This child has nothing to do with her in the first place."
"This child is pitiful, but luckily he is studying now and doesn't spend much time at home. We don't know when his father will be back. It's best not to let him go out. If he goes out and disappears, Gu Zhihe will go crazy when he comes back."
"He won't run around everywhere. He's so well behaved and he doesn't like to go out." Luo Xingci was more worried that his mother would come to the compound and knock him out and take him away. Sometimes when people get crazy, they can do anything.
"Auntie, auntie, I won't run around. I'm studying now and I need to study hard." Gu Yizhou just came in and heard their conversation. He said to them, "I've washed the vegetables. Auntie, I'll help you light the fire."
He was sitting on a small stool and making a fire below. Aunt Meihua actually liked Gu Yizhou very much. She hoped that her grandson or granddaughter would be as obedient and sensible as him in the future.
It was an hour later when the meal was ready. "Okay, it's time to eat. Go wash your hands and try my new sweet and sour fish and stir-fried rabbit meat."
After everyone was gathered, Aunt Meihua picked up a piece and put it in her mouth. "Mm, not bad. This time I can't even taste what the ingredients are. It's different from what's made outside, and it tastes very good. Try it."
Luo Xingci naturally knew that this dish was delicious. She had tasted it many times at the Lu family. Now even Cao Shuyi could cook this dish.
Gu Yizhou was eating with his mouth full of oil, "Auntie, this dish is so delicious. I will make it for you when I learn how to cook it." He thought that if he also learned how to cook a lot of dishes, he would definitely cook for Luo Xingci when he had time in the future.
Luo Xingci smiled and touched his head. After dinner, Aunt Meihua and Gu Yizhou took the initiative to take care of all the housework, even mopping the floor clean.
"Okay, you go upstairs and have a rest. I'm going back to take a nap too." Aunt Meihua took Gu Yizhou away.
Luo Xingci didn't rest either. She was studying hair growth water in the space. There was a book in the space, which listed all the ingredients needed for the hair growth water and the amount required.
After two days, she finally made the hair growth water, but who should she experiment on? Then she thought of the hairless chicken in the backyard.
This hair growth water has no side effects and can be used by any living creature.
