Lin Xiaomeng rushed back from her morning class to help her.

Gu Qinghuan prepared several rich dishes today.

There are braised pork elbow, stewed pork with vermicelli, stir-fried liver and kidney, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, and lamb and radish soup.

Because there was no extra pot to cook, he simply took the money and asked Lin Xiaomeng to help him and went to the cafeteria to get two baskets of steamed buns.

Finally, by the time the class was over at noon, the dishes were ready.

Gu Qinghuan borrowed the table, chairs and benches from Lin Xiaomeng's room, and put them together with the table, chairs and benches in his room to form a large table that was just the right size.

Dabao and Beibei ran back and saw a table full of delicious lunch.

"Mom, what day is today? Isn't it said that Qingming Festival is tomorrow?" Dabao asked puzzled.

"Don't you want to do something good every day? I'm sorry you two have been wronged during this period. Just bear with it for another two months. When mom takes these brothers and sisters to finish their exams, I will be much more relaxed. I will give you a good rest then." Gu Qinghuan rubbed the two little ones' heads.

After a while, Lin Muyang came over with four students in the lead. He also brought a bag of fruit candies and a bag of tiaozi cakes.

"Teacher Gu, you've prepared too much! This is so embarrassing." Lin Muyang said as he looked at the table full of dishes.

This table was mostly meat dishes, with nothing artificial. He immediately felt that the food he brought was not good enough.

"It's a home-cooked meal. It's rare to have time to prepare it. Don't be polite. Please sit down. It won't taste good if it gets cold." Gu Qinghuan greeted.

Gu Qinghuan's three daughters, Lin Xiaomeng's two daughters, plus another person, a total of ten people, filled the room. None of them complained about the environment, and they all stared eagerly at the food on the table.

Wang Qingchuan took a deep breath of saliva. He had never eaten such a sumptuous banquet in his life. Not only did it look delicious, but just by smelling it he felt like he could chew on a few black buns.

The other children were just like that, staring in amazement. In their minds, it was not an exaggeration to call this table a Manchu-Han banquet.

It's all meat! Pork elbow, pork, lamb, pork liver.

“Don’t just stand there, eat quickly!” Gu Qinghuan took the steamed buns from the basket and distributed them to everyone, holding one in each hand.

"Eat all, eat all. We are having a good meal today. Teacher Gu's family is not short of meat, so we are all here to benefit from it."

Lin Xiaomeng didn't bother to be polite with her and started eating right away, and then everyone started to eat.

Then the sound of chewing could be heard throughout the house.

However, the children deliberately slowed down their eating speed, not wanting to make as loud noises as usual.

Gu Qinghuan greeted everyone while eating.

"Today, I want to thank you guys for helping me turn the tables. Thank you for your hard work! But you have a lot of study tasks now. Don't do these things in the future. Concentrate on studying."

She tactfully reminded the children not to do this again in the future. Of course, there were some other things that Gu Qinghuan didn't say, but Lin Xiaomeng and Lin Muyang understood.

In fact, these children have good intentions. They are grateful to Gu Qinghuan and want to help her in any way they can. However, in the eyes of other teachers, this is capitalist behavior and unhealthy trends.

It is very bad for Gu Qinghuan's reputation and reputation.

This morning, Lin Xiaomeng was in the office and heard a teacher talking about this matter, and there was a sour taste in his words.

Wang Qingchuan was used to observing people's expressions, but he also realized that doing so was not good for Teacher Gu.

He asked cautiously, "Did you say anything? Teacher Gu, we want to help you."

Gu Qinghuan smiled brightly.

"It's nothing. I just don't want you to be distracted. Studying hard is what you should do."

"Teacher Gu is right. Children should not worry too much about big things. Your current task is to study hard." Lin Muyang also said seriously.

Everyone was very satisfied with this meal.

Especially the children.

We kept talking about it on the way back.

"Teacher Gu is so kind. We did some work for her, but she treated us to such a sumptuous meal. It's better than what I cook during the Chinese New Year!"

"I've never eaten such delicious food, so rich in fat."

"What do you think? Will we have this kind of feast next time?"

Wang Qingchuan thought for a moment and said seriously, "Don't mention this to other students when you go back, so as not to cause trouble for Teacher Gu."

What worries us is not the lack of wealth but the inequality. At a young age, he has already seen through the evil of human nature.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. No matter how gossipy people are, the fact that Gu Qinghuan invited everyone to dinner that day was still known to everyone, because the food she cooked was so delicious that all the neighbors knew about it.

Everyone was paying close attention. They saw several students coming in and out with their own eyes. They also heard from somewhere that some students had helped Gu Qinghuan to translate things, so the connection between the two came together.

Gossip changes its flavor as it is passed around.

It turned out that Gu Qinghuan hired students to do private work for him, which was a capitalist style! It was not a proper style!

Especially after her number one enemy Wan Rong knew about this, what would happen?

But this time I learned my lesson and did not force it directly. Instead, I took advantage of the Qingming holiday to investigate Gu Qinghuan's situation.

After knowing that Gu Qinghuan had a mother who was labeled as the stinking ninth grader, Wan Rong felt that she had a sure win. She had caught Gu Qinghuan's handle and could kick her out of school in one fell swoop.

Gu Qinghuan didn't know that she was about to face the first trouble in her teaching career. She was still enjoying a rare vacation at home.

There are three days of holiday during the Qingming Festival.

On the morning of the first day, she seized the time to plant the seeds in her backyard. There was no need to till the soil. She simply dug a hole, buried the seeds, and then watered it with spiritual spring water. Whether the seeds would survive or not was left to fate.

In fact, she was not in a hurry. She was just afraid that if she stopped working, someone else would volunteer to help.

Whether it was Ji Linhai or Zhong Zijun, they were already busy enough. Gu Qinghuan didn't want to trouble others anymore, so he worked harder.

After lunch, she took her two children to pick wild vegetables in the afternoon. If you want to make green dumplings with fresh mugwort, you can pick the branches and leaves on it, as this is the raw material for making green dumplings.

Take the mugwort home, wash it carefully, and blanch it in water for two minutes.

After blanching, rinse with cool water, use a mortar and grind into juice for later use.

Add glutinous rice flour, sugar, mugwort juice, and cooking oil together and knead into a smooth dough. Knead it repeatedly several times so that the finished product will be chewy and elastic.

Divide into small balls of similar size and wrap them with various fillings.

Lightly oil the surface and place on the rice dumplings leaves. The rice dumplings leaves need to be blanched in water before use.

Steam the dumplings after the water is boiled. Because most of the fillings are already cooked, you don’t need to steam them for too long. Ten minutes is enough. Steaming them for too long will easily cause the skin to break.

It is not easy to taste the aroma of mugwort when it is hot, but the aroma will come out when it is cooled.

Gu Qinghuan made several flavors of Qingtuan.

Red bean paste filling, egg yolk and pork floss filling, dried tofu and meat filling, black sesame filling.

Her favorite is salted egg yolk and pork filling. As for her two children, Beibei likes the sweet red bean paste and Dabao likes the salty dried tofu and meat filling.

They stuffed a lot of Qingtuan, especially with red bean paste and meat fillings. They stuffed so much that they surely couldn’t eat so much themselves.

Gu Qinghuan first sent eight to his sister-in-law Lin Xiaomeng, two of each of the four flavors.

The relationship between the two has improved a lot during this period. They are no longer confrontational, and sometimes they even help each other.

They are sisters-in-law and also friends. They spend every day together and see each other every day. They always exchange a few words, but it cannot be said that their relationship is particularly close.

Gu Qinghuan had never thought that one day she and Lin Xiaomeng would get along like this. She originally thought that her relationship with her would be irreconcilable for the rest of her life.

Lin Xiaomeng has really changed a lot now, because she has separated from the family and has her own career. She is completely different from her previous life in the book.

Without heavy labor, without mental pressure, without hysteria, without suspicion, she no longer insists on relying on anyone, and her life is harmonious and beautiful.

The world was also different from the one in the book where she could call the shots after her rebirth. After all, she no longer had the spiritual spring that could allow her to wield power.

In fact, sometimes Gu Qinghuan couldn't tell what day it was or how she felt, but every day she lived now was real, and it was enough for her to know this.

Lin Xiaomeng gave her half a pound of taro cake, which Xu Huaizhi had just brought back from the county.

Gu Qinghuan didn't bother to be polite and accepted it.

During this period, she rarely took snacks from the space, and the children hadn't had snacks for a long time, so this was just the right time to give them something to satisfy their cravings.

Giving gifts to Lin Xiaomeng would definitely not be hidden from Liu Guifang, so Gu Qinghuan also packed four Qingtuan dumplings for her.

Considering that she and Xu Mingxu gave birth to Xu Huaian, she should show some appreciation. It doesn't matter much, the old couple will have two children anyway.

Liu Guifang is a person who is used to pushing for more.

"How many will be enough for four of you? Meiling is about to give birth, and Lijun is also pregnant, and you didn't even ask for a few more!"

"If you like it, eat it. If you don't want to eat it, forget it. I'm saving it.

What you said is funny. Don't Meiling and Lijun have boyfriends? They are not my responsibility! Let their boyfriends buy them.

I give it to you to eat for Huai'an's sake, to help him show filial piety and accumulate virtue.

Anyway, there are four of them, you can give them to whoever you want. If you don’t want to eat them, I have no objection to giving them all to your daughter. Anyway, I have done my best, and God is watching! "

Sometimes Gu Qinghuan would suddenly feel that he had changed a lot.

According to her original stubborn temper, for a person like Liu Guifang, it would be considered good if she didn't get angry or scold her, let alone give her anything.

But now, she often feels that it is up to God to decide what to do, just do good things and don't worry about the future.

She had to accumulate blessings for Xu Huai'an. After all, they were his parents. No matter how bad they were, they gave him a life. Giving them something occasionally was nothing. It was best for Xu Huai'an to be well.

Love is like growing flowers, Xu Huaian's love melted away all her hostility and resentment.

Everything in the past life is just a passing cloud.

Liu Guifang was sentimental about Xu Meiling, but as soon as Gu Qinghuan left, Xu Huaiyu took the four green dumplings into his room and ate them one by one quickly, not leaving any for his pregnant wife.

Not only did mother Liu Guifang not say anything, she also brought water to her son.

"Old Three, eat slowly, don't choke."
