Chapter 441: The Peasant Girl of Qinghe Village 36
"That's great. If you want to eat meat, it's not that easy. I'll stew it for you in a moment.
You two guys, don't just stand there, sit down too!" After Aunt Ping took it, Lian Cheng Jinghao was still standing, so she pointed to the stool and said.
What she was thinking was, who are these two people to Miss Gu? They are handsome, one is tall and has a noble temperament, and the other looks simple, a typical young master.
"Don't just stand there, Aunt Ping, this is my fiancé, you can just call him Jinghao.
My other younger brother is called Bai Qi. This kid was adopted by my family and is registered under my name. His name is Jun Haonan.
This is the wife of Village Chief Gao, everyone calls her Aunt Ping. "After everyone was seated, Gu Nan introduced them to each other so that they would not be confused about how to address each other.
"I didn't expect you were engaged?" Aunt Ping was very surprised. She didn't expect that you were engaged after not seeing you for more than two months.
"Yes! Our families all know each other, so we got married when we reached age." Seeing her surprise, Gu Nan replied without being surprised.
When Gu Nan was sixteen years old, Aunt Ping asked her and other monsters about it. She used the excuse of her master and said that she would consider it after she turned eighteen, and thus she was fooled.
"Well! What's wrong with Niu Niu?" Gu Nan had just finished speaking, and before Aunt Ping could reply, she felt Niu Niu pulling her sleeve, so she lowered her head and asked.
"Can I play with this little brother?" While her grandma and the others were talking, Niu Niu kept stealing glances at Jun Haonan who was sitting in Bai Qi's arms. When she saw the little brother looking at her, she asked happily.
"Of course you can, but you have to ask him if he is willing. After all, you are all sensible children and you have to make your own decisions.
And if you want to call me little brother, you have to call me Aunt Gu instead, otherwise the generations will be messed up." Gu Nan looked up at Haonan and saw that he listened to Niuniu's words, did not resist, and even peeked at her from time to time, so he said.
"No matter what Miss Gu said, Niu Niu must call me Aunt Gu from now on." Aunt Ping nodded secretly after hearing this.
"I know, Aunt Gu! I'll go ask him right now." Niu Niu half understood what she said, but one thing was very clear, her sister said she had to ask herself.
After getting the promise, Niu Niu ran to Bai Qi. After listening to their childish conversations, she decided to go out and play.
"Bai Qi, I'm worried. You should go with them!" She noticed Bai Qi's expression when the two little ones were talking, so she spoke.
"Got it, sister!" Bai Qi got the agreement and stood up happily and followed.
This opened Aunt Ping's eyes. She found that this Bai Qi was too naive. It would be fine if he didn't speak! But once he spoke, she could see the problem.
"Aunt Ping, are you surprised about Bai Qi's situation?" Gu Nan asked when he saw Aunt Ping looking towards the door.
"Yes! What's the situation with this child?" Aunt Ping didn't expect Gu Nan to not hide it, so she asked with confidence.
Lian Cheng Jinghao was also curious when listening to the discussion. He and Bai Qi had not known each other for long and he had noticed it a long time ago, but he had not asked, so he was listening attentively now.
"When her mother was pregnant with him, she was accidentally injured, causing Bai Qi to be born prematurely and have intellectual disabilities. He is only about five or six years old now.
But his condition has been cured, and he will grow up slowly over time." Gu Nan simplified his guess.
After hearing this, the two suddenly realized that no wonder he was so jealous of going out to play, it turned out that he was still a child at heart!
They had been chatting for a while when the village chief came in from behind the house.
"Master, please chat with them for a while. I'll go stew the meat." Aunt Ping said as she picked up the basket when she saw her husband come in.
Aunt Ping went into the kitchen and opened the box, only to find a lot of things. No wonder it was so heavy. In addition to meat and vegetables, there was also sugar, salt and wine.
She thought that Miss Gu was very polite and always brought extra things with her every time she came.
Seeing that the village chief and Lian Cheng Jinghao were able to talk, Gu Nan went to the fire room, helped Aunt Ping light the fire, and began to listen to Aunt Ping's gossip about interesting things in the village.
What was being said at the moment was that the village chief's nephew was looking for a marriage partner, but for some unknown reason, he went out to visit relatives for two months. When he came back, he wanted to move up the marriage. Her brother and sister-in-law were unwilling to do so, as they felt that there was something fishy going on.
Upon hearing this farce, Gu Nan's first reaction was that this girl might be looking for someone to take over!
"Actually, Aunt Ping, this problem is easy to solve. Why don't you suggest inviting a doctor to come home and take my pulse.
Just say that in order to ensure the young couple's marriage, the old man can have grandchildren smoothly the next year, and then no matter what tricks he has, he can be exposed, right?" With an idea in mind, Gu Nan couldn't bear to let Aunt Ping worry about it. Besides, her nephew was a good person, hardworking and simple, and wanted to help, so she suggested.
As for how to proceed, it depends on themselves. I have made it so clear. If they still fall into the trap, they can't blame others.
After hearing this, Aunt Ping fell into deep thought, thinking that this was a good idea. She went back to tell her younger brother and sister-in-law about it, and then she started cutting the meat.
The two of them cleaned up quickly and served the food before dinner time. Those who had gone out to work had returned. Village Chief Gao's family was not large, with a total of eight people, plus Gu Nan and the other four, so they sat at one table.
"Wow! It smells so good. I want to eat some meat." Niu Niu shouted happily in her father's arms.
This little girl is the eldest granddaughter in the family. The younger grandson can't walk yet and fell asleep when he came back, so he was not taken out. So she is very spoiled at home, which can be seen from her words and actions.
"Old woman, let's eat!" When everyone was gathered, Village Chief Gao picked up the chopsticks and said.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal of venison. It was difficult for farmers to get meat. For example, the village chief's family was considered a wealthy family in the village, but they hadn't seen meat for a long time, and it was even worse in the past. It was only in recent years, since they had come into contact with Gu Nan, they had seen meat more often.
On the second day, the village head and his wife took Niu Niu to send them out of the village, but Niu Niu was so sad that she cried.
"Don't cry, I'll be back soon and bring you a gift!" Gu Nan rubbed her golden beans and coaxed her.
"Then I want candied haws! And brother, remember to think of me!" Niu Niu said carefully while pulling Jun Haonan.
"Yeah!" Jun Haonan replied in a low voice, being frugal with his words. This was the first friend he had met who was willing to be his friend, and he cherished him very much, so he was reluctant to let go.
"I got it. Remember to think of me!" Unlike Jun Haonan, Gu Nan pinched Niu Niu's face and said.
Bai Qi, who followed closely behind, also imitated Gu Nan and pinched the man, but his hand was too heavy and he made the man cry. He was so scared that he hid behind Lian Cheng Jinghao.
This scene really made Gu Nan and the Gao family laugh. They are really childish.
As the children were reluctant to leave, Gu Nan and the other three disappeared at the entrance of the village.
"Head of the house, take Niu Niu back. My sister-in-law should be in the vegetable garden behind the house right now. I have something to ask her. I'll be back soon." After seeing everyone off, Aunt Ping remembered Gu Nan's recommendation yesterday and hurried to visit her sister-in-law.
"Let's go, Niuniu! Grandpa will carry you back." Village chief Gao didn't care what she did. He just happily picked up Niuniu and held her high up.
Children have short memories. Look! After a while, they happily walked back with their grandfather.
