Da Hua twisted her ankle yesterday, and I wonder how she is today, and whether she'll be able to get up and cook.
I happened to be going to deliver breakfast to her, so I could talk to her about Uncle Zhang.
To save her from being alone at home and getting anxious because her parents hadn't come home yet.
Gu Lili went straight to Zhang Dahua's house. Knowing that Zhang Dahua had difficulty walking, she didn't knock and went straight in.
"Dahua, Dahua, are you home?" Gu Lili called out as she entered the courtyard.
Hearing someone call her name, Zhang Dahua quickly jumped out of the kitchen.
For some reason, Zhang Dahua's eyelids kept twitching all day, and she felt very flustered.
I've already made breakfast, but my parents haven't come back yet.
I was just about to go to Gu Lili's house next door to see if they had returned, but I didn't expect Gu Lili to come to my house first.
When Zhang Dahua saw Gu Lili come by herself, her heart sank to the bottom.
She quickly asked, "Sister Lili, has something happened to my father and mother?"
There really is a telepathic connection between family members.
"Dahua, let's go back to the kitchen and sit down first. I'll tell you slowly!" Gu Lili comforted her.
Although Zhang Dahua was anxious, she could tell from the steaming porridge in Gu Lili's hand that it was very hot.
And then there was the bandage on Gu Lili's hand. She realized that Gu Lili might be injured, and she couldn't let her keep up this act forever.
Without saying anything more, he led Gu Lili into the kitchen.
Gu Lili placed the porridge in her hand on Zhang Dahua's table, then raised her hand and pinched her earlobe.
"Dahua, don't worry. Uncle Zhang fell and hurt his foot, but Erniu and Aunt Zhang have already taken him to Donghai Town to see a doctor!" Gu Lili said, downplaying the seriousness of the matter.
If I told Zhang Dahua about the scary thing that just happened, she would definitely be even more worried.
Hearing Gu Lili say this, Zhang Dahua breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then how did they get to Donghai Town?" Zhang Dahua asked in confusion.
My father injured his leg, so he probably won't be able to walk to Donghai Town to see a doctor.
Sister Lili will definitely have Erniu go home and drive Father there, and she'll definitely let me know.
It must be said that Zhang Dahua's counter-surveillance capabilities are quite strong.
Gu Lili smiled casually and said, "It's the Han family from our village, the one who donated money to build the school. Their young master happened to run into us, and then he took Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang there in his carriage!"
Zhang Dahua nodded after listening. It seemed that the young master of the Han family was a kind-hearted person.
If he lives in Guzhuang in the future, he must ask his parents to take good care of him.
"Dahua, I made this seafood porridge. Try it, I need to go back for dinner too!" Gu Lili said gently.
After we finish eating, we'll bring over the fish from Uncle Zhang's house.
Then I dried some and sent some to the village head's house and my maternal grandmother's house.
With that thought in mind, Gu Lili got up to say goodbye.
Zhang Dahua quickly refused, saying, "Sister Lili, I've already cooked some wild vegetable porridge. You can take this porridge back and eat it!"
Although she and Gu Erniu hadn't officially started dating, she couldn't take advantage of Lili's family.
Gu Lili covered her mouth and teased, "You don't need to be so polite with your older sister!"
Zhang Dahua instantly understood the meaning behind Gu Lili's words, and her face immediately turned red with embarrassment.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I'm going back now!" Gu Lili said.
Seeing Zhang Dahua about to get up to see her off, Gu Lili quickly waved her hand and said, "Dahua, your feet hurt, so don't walk back and forth! Sit down and eat!"
As Gu Lili finished speaking, she quickly left.
Zhang Dahua had no choice but to give up. She looked at the porridge in front of her, and then at the wild vegetable porridge she had cooked.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Dahua stood up, ladled out a bowl of wild vegetable porridge, and ate it.
My father is injured, so I'll save the rice porridge that Sister Lili gave me for him to drink and help him recover when he gets back!
As soon as Gu Lili left Zhang Dahua's house and stepped into her own yard, she heard laughter and cheerful chatter coming from the kitchen.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Han Mingyue was telling them interesting stories about the capital.
Seeing Gu Lili return, Gu Huanhuan quickly raised her hand to invite Gu Lili to sit down.
"Sister, Brother Mingyue said that in the capital, many wealthy families eat from golden bowls and use chopsticks made of silver!" Gu Huanhuan said with a smile.
Gu Lili frowned upon hearing this. Why had Gu Huanhuan changed her way of addressing her after she had only delivered one meal?
Han Gongzi has been replaced by Mingyue Gege!
Also, are you sure that long-term use of gold and silver items won't lead to metal poisoning?
However, not wanting to spoil Gu Huanhuan's mood, Gu Lili also chuckled awkwardly.
"Wow, that's incredibly wealthy, hahaha!"
Clearly, Gu Lili's answer instantly created an awkward silence.
Just as Gu Lili was about to say something to salvage the situation, Li Ershu spoke up.
"Huanhuan, your uncle has told you several times that you can't call Mingyue 'brother'. Brother Mingyue calls me Li Erge. If you call him 'brother' again, won't that mess up the generational order?"
Gu Huanhuan asked, somewhat confused, "Second Uncle, but Brother Mingyue is clearly about the same age as Sister, not as old as you, right?"
Li Ershu was speechless. How old was he? He was only eighteen.
Hearing Gu Huanhuan say that makes me feel like I'm already buried up to my neck!
“That’s right, Second Uncle, you can’t take advantage of Brother Mingyue!” Gu Sigou added fuel to the fire.
Just as Li Ershu was about to retort, Han Mingyue stepped in to smooth things over.
"Let's just call each other by our own names. You can still call me Brother Mingyue, and Brother Li can still call me Brother Mingyue, right?"
The two children and one adult all agreed that Han Mingyue's words made sense, so they stopped arguing and continued eating.
After finishing the meal, Han Mingyue even offered to wash the dishes.
Gu Lili quickly refused. "Young Master Han, you are a guest, you don't need any help!"
Gu Lili emphasized the word "guest" very much, and Han Mingyue understood the meaning behind it.
He awkwardly put down his bowl and chopsticks, realizing he had been too overly familiar.
It's understandable that Gu Lili felt uncomfortable.
Gu Huanhuan and Gu Sigou took on the task of washing the dishes.
"Second Uncle, let's go deliver the fish to Da Hua's house!" Gu Lili said to Li Ershu.
Gu Lili plans to divide the six buckets of fish equally, three buckets for each family.
Han Mingyue originally wanted to help, but Gu Lili's words just now made him feel a little embarrassed.
So he didn't go forward. Anyway, Si Gou had just said that it was next door, so Gu Lili's hand injury shouldn't be a problem.
Li Ershu carried two buckets of fish, and Gu Lili carried one bucket, and they headed towards Zhang Dahua's house.
