"What's this?"
Gu Qingcheng had never seen rice crust before.
Well, there's nothing I can do. As a lady from a noble family, she is particular about everything and is also spoiled by her elders and parents.
The rice she ate was always the best and softest.
Rice crusts and the like looked "indecent", so the servants didn't dare to serve them.
So, this was the first time that Gu Qingcheng saw rice crust.
"Rice crust! I heard it's especially delicious if you soak it in soup!"
Mrs. Wang wiped her hands with her apron and said with a smile, "I specifically asked Mrs. Xu next door. She is from West Lake, a famous land of fish and rice."
I am best at making rice.
"Oh! Okay!"
Gu Qingcheng tried it and found that the rice crust was even more delicious than rice.
Li Yaozong also ate a bowl, and the little guy was very satisfied.
In the morning, at the racecourse, Li Yaozong was very quiet.
He was still a little scared in his heart.
He also knew that his mother had brought him to this unfamiliar provincial capital and that he needed to gain a foothold.
Mom works very hard.
Many times, he was woken up in the middle of the night by the urge to urinate, and he would always see the kerosene lamp lit in the main room and the figure studying under the eucalyptus tree.
Outsiders cannot see A Niang's efforts, they just think it is amazing that a woman from the countryside can understand so much.
Li Yaozong knew that A Niang had made such obvious progress because of her hard work in studying.
With A Niang's efforts, Li Yaozong became more sensible.
If I can't help my mother, then I will be a good boy and not hold her back.
Gu Qingcheng naturally noticed the change in Li Yaozong.
She was very relieved that children just have to learn to grow up.
The process may not be wonderful, but it is better to learn it early than to suffer later.
Just like Li Yaozu, Li Jiye’s most beloved son.
He was spoiled by his family since he was a child, and when he grew up, he went abroad with a lot of money.
He did learn some skills, but he was also spoiled.
Disobeying father's orders and being irresponsible.
He ran away from his marriage and harmed his first wife.
After escaping, he deliberately disappeared and refused to contact his family...
Tsk tsk, this kind of person is unfilial, unfraternal, unkind and unjust.
Such a selfish and cold-hearted person may be able to live a good life because he is shameless enough.
But, there is a greater probability that he will have a tragic ending.
Because he was spoiled, and the people outside were not Li Jiye, they would not give in to him or indulge him.
Not to mention, there is also a female protagonist named Han Qiuyu who travels through the book.
Gu Qingcheng carefully recalled the story outline she had read. It seemed to mention that after Han Qiuyu became successful, he met Li Yaozu again.

There must be some love-hate relationship between them.
Of course, these are all later stories and have nothing to do with Gu Qingcheng and her son.
Gu Qingcheng is more concerned about Li Yaozong.
In the Li family, Li Yaozong was also very favored, and the original owner, Gu Sanniang, valued this child very much.
Fortunately, there was a more favored Li Yaozu. Li Yaozong was not the only one after all, so he was not completely spoiled.
Now that Gu Qingcheng has taken over Li Yaozong's adopted son, she will teach him well.
Through words and deeds, and subtle influence, Gu Qingcheng will cultivate Li Yaozong into a talented person even without deliberate guidance.
After dinner, Gu Qingcheng coaxed Li Yaozong to take a nap.
After Li Yaozong fell asleep, Gu Qingcheng started reading and reading newspapers again.
She has exchanged books several times with Editor Zhao, Mr. Xu and others next door, and she has a deeper and more detailed understanding of this world and this era.
Editor Zhao and Mr. Xu's collection of books can no longer satisfy Gu Qingcheng.
"Looks like I need to find some time to go to the bookstore."
"Mr. Xu also mentioned that there is a library in the university hall with a large collection of books."
Gu Qingcheng was flipping through the book while thinking to herself.
Bang! Bang!
There was a heavy knock on the door suddenly.
Gu Qingcheng stood up and walked into the yard. Through the gate, she asked, "Who is it?"
"Haha, it's me, Ma Yong!"
Ma Yong shouted with a smile.
The neighbors on both sides heard the noise and stuck their heads out.
Then, they were surprised to find that there was a car parked at Ms. Gu's door.
There was also a man dressed as a soldier standing at the door and knocking.
Judging from the man's attire and demeanor, he doesn't look like a private, but rather like an officer.
"Huh? Didn't they say that Gu came from the countryside? I haven't heard that she has any relatives in the provincial capital."
"Hmph, I think she's just restless. She wears this veil on purpose. She looks so seductive and not presentable."
"Is this person here to cause trouble for Ms. Gu?"
"What, Wang Dali, you still want to rush over to help? Humph, do you really think you're a big shot just because you bought a rickshaw?"
"Old lady, I didn't provoke you, why do you talk like that?"
The people who were talking were Wang Dali and his landlord, the old lady who looked mean.
She lives up to her looks and is truly a very nice person.
When they first met, she was indeed intimidated by Gu Qingcheng's aura and did not dare to complain in front of her.
But behind the scenes, the old lady always wanted to make fun of Gu Qingcheng and deliberately spread some rumors.
Huoshui:...Hey, I always meet the best ones. Isn’t this the treatment of the heroine? How come Gu Qingcheng also met one?
