"Master's cooking is excellent." Gu Qian ate more than a dozen meatballs in a row, but stopped eating because he was afraid that his master would not have any to eat during the New Year.
Seeing that his master was about to fry some peanuts, he said:
"Master, let me help."
"No need." Li Zheng had never seen Gu Qian cook before, and was afraid that he would mess up the kitchen.
Gu Qian was neither of any help nor an eyesore to his master.
He said goodbye and left the kitchen.
Looking at his master's busy figure again, Gu Qian sighed, his face full of worry.
Master, oh Master, what should I do to get you to agree to move?
This thatched hut is drafty from all sides, making it really uncomfortable to live in.
Outside the courtyard, Ling Qi and Ling Ba stared intently at Gu Qian, genuinely troubled.
Ling Qi: "General, you've had it so tough, you got rejected again."
Ling Ba: "It's our fault; we failed to share the general's burdens."
"Uncle Ling Qi, what was rejected?" Gu Xiaoran appeared behind the two of them without them noticing.
Ling Qi turned around and saw the black dog that he had just tied up yesterday now obediently following behind Gu Xiaoran, which made him feel quite helpless.
"Xiao Ran, how did you untie this black dog?" He had tied a tight knot yesterday, making it extremely secure.
That brat, so heartless! He gets punished by Qiu Yan every day, but he never learns his lesson.
Gu Xiaoran: "Uncle Ling Qi, you haven't answered my question yet."
Ling Qi shrugged and looked at Gu Qian, who had just entered the Qiu family courtyard:
"Your father wants your grandparents to live in a big house, but they don't want to. Can you help your father with this?"
Ling Ba shook his head: "Gu Xiaoran is just a child, what help can he possibly provide?"
Gu Xiaoran was somewhat displeased upon hearing Ling Ba's words, "What do you mean by something serious? What's so difficult about this?"
...For the entire morning, Gu Qian and Qiu Yan were busy making fillings for the dumplings for tomorrow morning.
After peeling the scallions, Qiu Yan started washing the radishes and chives.
With a large family, we need to prepare a wider variety of fillings.
Of course, thick, marbled pork belly is also included.
When it comes to physical labor like chopping meat, Gu Qian is the best.
Meanwhile, Cuizhu was preparing lunch for the day.
She said it was pitiful; the young lady had someone to accompany her, so she didn't take her out anymore.
After lunch, every household decorated their homes with lanterns and colorful decorations, preparing to welcome the New Year.
Qiu Yan and Gu Qian hung red lanterns at the entrance of the courtyard.
After the lanterns are hung, the next step is to hang the Spring Festival couplets.
The two entered the courtyard, and Qiu Yan took out the cinnabar paper and writing brush and ink that she had bought in advance and placed them on the stone table in the courtyard.
"Gu Qian, you'll write the Spring Festival couplets this year."
"Okay," Gu Qian readily agreed.
Just as he was thinking about what to write, his thoughts were interrupted by a startled exclamation.
"Gu Xiaoran!"
Qiu Yan's first thought was, what trouble has Xiao Ran gotten into this time?
Gu Qian recognized his master's voice and was about to leave the hospital when he turned his head and saw a small figure appear on... the roof of his master's house?
This time, not only Qiu Yan, but even Gu Qian was driven half to death by this brat.
At the same time, Ms. Ye came out of the house.
When she saw Gu Xiaoran on the roof, she was angry, but her heart jumped into her throat.
"Xiao Ran, don't move, please don't move..."
At this moment, Qiu Yan also saw Gu Xiaoran on the roof.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoran, with a face covered in graffiti, was lying on the roof of the Li family's house.
With both hands, he peeled off the tiles from the Li family's house, one by one.
This brat made her both angry and shocked.
If you accidentally fall...
She took off running out of the yard and headed towards the Li family's house.
Before she could run out of the yard, she saw Gu Qian had already leaped up and landed on the roof of the Li family's house, grabbing Gu Xiaoran's collar with one hand.
