Chapter 73 A modern man broke through the defense
In order to prevent the children at home from eating random things, the grandmother told them that she had put a medicine in all the food in the house that would make them cry or laugh non-stop after eating it.
If you take it without her permission, you will be poisoned to death.
Of course, these words are just to coax children.
But Gu Yuhe believed it very much. Don't you think your second sister is a living example?
Looking at Gu Jiayue who was laughing till tears came out, Gu Yuhe snorted in his heart: She deserves it, it's her fault for letting her eat alone.
Gu Jiayue had no idea that Gu Yuhe had already accused her of being a thief.
She sat up and tried to stop herself from laughing: "Ahem, ahem, I can't laugh anymore. This isn't funny at all."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
But the more she tried not to think about it, the more her brain became unresponsive, and those funny scenes kept appearing in her mind.
She was so tired and really didn't want to laugh anymore, but she just couldn't control it.
"Hahaha... Mr. Du, is there any way to stop people from laughing?"
System: [Yes, there is one education point.]
"Okay, okay, buy, buy, hurry up, hahahaha."
System: [Host, what are you laughing at? ]
The system redeemed Gu Jiayue a massage session.
It was indeed different when you spent money. After a minute, Gu Jiayue didn't want to laugh anymore.
[Host, what were you laughing at just now?] The system couldn't help but be curious.
Gu Jiayue almost couldn't help laughing out loud again, but the residual effect of the massage was still there, so she stopped herself abruptly.
But she was so eager to share that she clicked on the system store and swiped around a bit, actually finding the ghost version of that palace drama. "Watch it yourself. Don't use my education points!"
After calming down, she picked up her textbook, walked out of the room, and started today's teaching task.
At noon, Madam Cai and Hua Chao packed the prepared food into a backpack.
Gu Jiayue put away the textbook and said to the four children, "Okay, the class is over. Wash your hands and get ready for dinner."
After dinner, Gu Jiayue took a few people to deliver meals to the people working in the fields.
It was the planting season and everyone was racing against time. Most families did not go home for lunch. Instead, they sent someone home to prepare lunch at noon and then delivered it to the fields. After eating, they would continue to work.
The Gu family is large and has many children. There are also Hua Chao and Cai Ma, two good housewives, at home, so there is no need to send anyone home to cook.
Several people walked towards the fields in a mighty procession, and met many villagers who were delivering food on the way.
"Hey, little Jiayue, are you bringing food to your grandma?" an old lady greeted her warmly.
"Yes, Auntie. Have you eaten?" Gu Jiayue responded with a generous smile and started chatting with the auntie.
"We've eaten. How much food did your family cook? You need to carry three baskets."
"Hey, it's nothing special, just some bread, vegetables and so on. But I have a big family, so I need to take a lot of things. I also brought them some boiled water, so if you are thirsty, come and drink it."
Gu Jiayue didn't tell the truth. In fact, there was meat and eggs in the basket.
But there is no need to explain everything clearly. After all, they have no ill intentions and are just chatting with each other when they meet on the road.
Everyone was not rich, and most of the time they ate corn cakes and cabbage soup. It was not good to show off the delicious fish and meat at home.
"Okay, okay, thank you in advance." The old lady's smile became even brighter. "Oh, I've arrived at my farm. I almost chatted with you for too long. When you're done with these busy days, come over to my house and I'll make you some fried eggs."
Gu Jiayue smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, take care, Auntie, we're almost there."
After seeing the old lady off, Gu Jiayue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she seemed to handle the situation calmly, she was actually a little nervous.
I don't like dealing with elders the most.
When they arrived at the field, the Gu family had already planted a lot of seedlings early in the morning. They planted the hybrid rice seedlings in the place with the best water source and the strongest fertility.
I just thought that this might increase production and prevent Gu Jiayue's big talk from coming to fruition.
"Grandpa and grandma, it's time to eat." Gu Yuhe stood on the edge of the field and shouted at the top of his voice.
When the people in the field heard the sound, they all looked up.
When the others saw that it was not their own child, they lowered their heads and continued to work.
When the Gu family saw that it was Yuhe, they put down the seedlings in their hands and walked towards the ridge of the field.
There is a platform where the two fields meet, which was originally used to store straw, but is now used to store food.
The table at home is too big and cannot be folded, so it is not convenient to take it out.
Gu Jiayue told her father about it and asked him to weave a simple mat.
If we spread it on the ground like this, the food won’t get dirty and everyone can sit on it.
"Oh, what is this?" Uncle looked at the mat curiously.
"Oh, this is a mat I asked my father to weave out of bamboo. It was woven hastily, so it's a bit rough. If it were woven more carefully, people could lie down on it and sleep. It would be very cool."
Although it is rough, Father Gu was very careful to clean the burrs on it, so people don't have to worry about getting pricked when sitting on it.
Everyone immediately became interested and started commenting on the mat.
Grandpa Gu made a prompt decision: "Big brother, second brother, go back early and cut some bamboo from the mountain. When we are done with these few days, we will weave some more and put them on the bed so that we won't feel hot when we sleep."
"Okay, I'll go after dinner. I think what my third brother wove is similar to a backpack. It looks quite simple. But I think if we add two more thin bamboo strips, we can weave some more patterns." The uncle nodded while eating.
"Well, you can also use new bamboo and old bamboo to weave alternately, so that the color will change." My aunt also agreed.
"Oh! Can we weave it bigger and then spread it on the roof, so that we don't have to worry about leaking when it rains! Look at that backpack, it's woven so tightly that it can even hold water." The second aunt clapped her hands and came up with an idea.
"You can also put it on the ground, so that the dirt on the ground will not be easily blown up. The dust in the summer is very choking." Mother Gu gestured with her hands.
Gu Jiayue was shocked. He only took a few glances, and he had so many new ideas?
That's not what's written in those novels! Don't they say that except for the protagonist, everyone else is stupid?
But the elders in her family can learn it at a glance and can even come up with new tricks. So how can she demonstrate her advantages as a modern person?
This is just nonsense! Can you please take back what you just said?
These should be her lines!
Stop talking, stop talking, a modern person has broken down.
Of course, words spoken are like water spilled on the ground, and they cannot be taken back.
"Uncle, can I go with you later?"
no!
The Gu family had successfully aroused her desire to win! She was a modern person with a vast amount of knowledge, and she was also a young and innovative person. How could she be outdone by her elders?
"Okay, no problem." Uncle agreed without thinking.
"Okay, let's eat." As soon as Grandma Gu said that, everyone stopped talking and concentrated on eating.
Since they were bringing it out to eat, Aunt Cai didn't make any soups. It was basically just stir-fries and cold dishes, and a big bowl of tortillas.
Gu Jiayue disliked the corn that was ground too coarsely and hurt her throat, so she modified the stone mill at home, and the cornmeal she ground out is now much finer.
After the villagers found out, many came to borrow it. Gu Jiayue didn't hide the secret and directly told the village chief the production method. He asked the village chief to find some young men to go to the mountain to mine some marble, remake several stone mills and place them next to the big banyan tree. Anyone who wants to use it can use it.
Even so, Aunt Cai still thought the cornmeal was too coarse, so she sieved it twice, using the finest layer to make pancakes, and added a little brown sugar. A bite of it was slightly sweet, and it was so delicious.
Everyone came to work before daybreak and was now starving, eating with big mouthfuls.
The big pancake was gone in just two or three bites. Gu Jiayue quickly poured a large bowl of mung bean soup, as she was really afraid that her uncle would choke.
After drinking the mung bean soup, the uncle wiped his mouth with his hand and said, "I'm full, Jiayue girl, let's go."
"Hey, here I come."
Gu Jiayue followed her uncle, and Gu Yuhe also wanted to go, but his grandfather did not allow it and asked him to stay and work.
Gu Yuhe was not convinced: "Why can my second sister go and play?"
"Because your second sister can read. When you can read like her, I will let you go out and play." Grandpa Gu said seriously, thinking of himself as a reasonable man.
Gu Yuhe was speechless. Like my second sister? Maybe in the next life.
