After a quick cold shower, Gu Chijin came out soaking wet.
Shi Qi looked over from the kitchen and saw that he was shirtless and his pants were soaked. He exclaimed:
"Did you take a shower or did you fall into the bucket?"
Gu Chijin's face was burning hot:
"I just realized I didn't bring a change of clothes after I finished washing. I'll go change right away."
After saying that, he fled.
Shi Qi stared at the door with suspicion.
What the hell is he doing?
Shaking his head, Shi Qi couldn't figure it out, so he returned to the kitchen to fry eggs for dinner.
After the eggs were fried, Grandpa Gu opened the door and walked into the living room.
After a night's rest, he felt refreshed. Seeing Shi Qi busying around in the kitchen, he asked with a sullen face:
"Where's the eldest son? Where did he go to be lazy? Why didn't he make breakfast with you?"
I haven't seen my eldest grandson for a year. How come he is so lazy? He doesn't get up early in the morning to prepare breakfast, but asks his wife to do it.
At this moment, seeing his grandson's wife busy in the kitchen with sweat on her forehead, Grandpa Gu obviously forgot that his grandson's leg injury had not yet healed.
He wholeheartedly protects his granddaughter-in-law Shi Qi.
Tokisu put the fried eggs on a plate and said with a smile:
"Grandpa, he just helped me fetch water and his clothes got wet. Now he's changing in the room."
Fetch water?
It turns out that I have already worked.
Grandpa Gu was finally satisfied and nodded with a pursed mouth: "That's pretty good."
Seeing Shi Qi moving in and out of the kitchen, he said again:
"Shi girl, when the eldest son is at home, don't do everything by yourself. If there's anything that needs to be fixed at home, just call him.
A man has endless energy, so don't feel sorry for him."
As he spoke, Grandpa Gu scolded Gu Chijin:
"This brat, why hasn't he come out to help? Is he sleeping in the house? I'll go call him."
As soon as Grandpa Gu turned his back, Gu Chijin opened the door and came out of the house.
Shi Qi saw that he had changed into clean clothes, then looked away and added water to the pot.
"You're getting more and more useless, kid. You get your clothes wet just by carrying water."
Gu Chijin was helpless. In the past, when he was at home, Grandpa Gu loved to scold him, but he didn't think it was a big deal.
Today, when he was scolded in front of Shi Qi, he felt embarrassed:
"Grandpa, is Chi Xin awake yet? Please go and call him to eat. I'll go help Shi Qi."
Changing the subject, Gu Chijin strode into the kitchen, only to see Shi Qi with a wicked smile on his face.
Good, she was actually laughing at him.
Grandpa Gu snorted twice and cursed with a smile:
"You little brat."
After Grandpa Gu came into the house to call Gu Chixin, Shi Qi handed the water spinach to Gu Chijin and asked him to pick it.
"You wash the vegetables, I'll go outside and pick some peppers."
Shi Qi likes spicy food, so she always adds some chili peppers to her breakfast. The chili peppers at home were all eaten last night, so she went outside to pick some.
Gu Chijin nodded silently, and his hands moved quickly. In less than two minutes, he had picked and washed a bunch of water spinach.
When Shi Qi came back from picking peppers, Gu Chijin was already downstairs.
Shi Qi stretched his neck to take a look into the pot, said nothing, and started to cut peppers with a kitchen knife for seasoning.
Gu Chijin saw that she hadn't finished cutting the peppers, so he said:
"Finish cutting it up. I'll add some later."
Shi Qi nodded, thought for a moment, cut all the peppers he had picked, and put them in a small bowl.
The chili peppers will be put on the table later. If Grandpa Gu and Gu Chixin want to eat some, they can just add some themselves.
Gu Chixin got dressed and left the room. The noodles had just come out of the pot.
Gu Chijin picked out the noodles and divided them into four bowls, and Shi Qi added an egg to each bowl.
Bai Xiaohua gave me 6 eggs, and I used 3 of them to stir-fry leeks last night.
There were 3 eggs this morning, and one for each person was definitely not enough, so Shi Qi beat them into a bowl, mixed them evenly, and made an omelet.
Spread it out and divide it evenly into 4 portions.
There were 4 portions of different sizes, and Shi Qi divided them according to the order of old, weak, sick and disabled, and left the smallest one for his own bowl.
When Gu Chijin saw this, he silently gave her the omelet in his bowl and walked out of the kitchen with the other bowls.
Shi Qi discovered it later and looked at Gu Chijin in surprise.
But at this time, Gu Chijin was already eating noodles with pickles and did not see her gaze.
After the four of them, the grandfather and grandson, had breakfast and Gu Chijin helped clean up, it was only eight o'clock in the morning.
After explaining to Grandpa Gu, the four of them took their things and took a bus into the city.
After leaving the yard, Shi Qi found that Gu Chixin was always nervous.
He looked calm, but his thumb and index finger kept rubbing together.
Slowing down his pace, Shi Qi lowered his voice and said to Gu Chijin:
"Stay close to Grandpa Li Chixin. He has never been here before and is very scared.
You see his hands are constantly moving, which is a sign of insecurity."
Gu Chijin looked at her in surprise. He didn't expect her to observe so carefully.
With a frown, Gu Chijin turned to look at her younger brother and found that it was just as she said.
After all, they were brothers. Gu Chijin took two steps back, walked to Gu Chixin's side, raised his hand and pressed his shoulder:
"Don't be afraid, if you have anything, tell me."
Hearing his voice, Gu Chixin raised his head slowly, and it took him a long time to react:
"Okay, brother."
Grandpa Gu looked over and knew that the second kid might be scared, so he smiled and said:
"Second kid, this is your brother and sister-in-law's home, just treat it as your own home, don't be nervous.
When we get to the city, follow Grandpa closely and he will buy you something delicious."
Grandpa Gu loves Gu Chijin and also loves this extraordinary grandson.
This time he brought him here, not only because Gu Chixin wanted to come and see his brother, but he also wanted to train the child.
There are still decades to go, and he will have to slowly adapt to the outside society. If he has to stay at home all the time, what will he do when all these old men are gone?
