86 Chicken Walk(1/2)
The old lady glanced at Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang again, and her eyes were full of meaning.
I feel like I will be holding my great-grandson soon!
Gu Jiao seamlessly switched and asked Feng Lin.
Xiao Liulang also answered seriously: "He went back to the academy and went to the capital city for a month, which delayed a lot of classes."
Thanks to Feng Lin this time, Gu Jiao wrote down his good deeds.
As the two talked, a few tender yellow chicks walked out in a swagger.
Only then did Xiao Liulang realize that he had been away from home for more than a month and had started raising chickens at home.
Gu Jiao is not interested in raising chickens, but Xiao Jingkong occasionally sees the little chickens from the next house. He likes them so much that he asks Gu Jiao if he can raise a few.
Gu Jiao said he could raise it, but there was a condition that he had to take care of the chickens himself, feed them and feed them water, and clean them with chicken manure.
In order to let Xiao Jingkong understand the difficulty of raising chickens, Gu Jiao asked him to go to Xue Ningxiang's house to feed the chickens for two days. Not only were there cute little chickens, but also old hens and big roosters who had grown and matured and no longer cute.
And Gu Jiao told him that all the cute little chicks who look at them now will one day grow into old hens and big roosters.
As a result, he couldn't even dissuade him, so Gu Jiao had to let him raise him.
He raised seven, each of them chubby.
He also gave them names, from one to seven, and didn't know how he identified them.
Xiao Liulang brought Pingcheng specialty to the old lady - candied dried bayberry. This time, the bayberry just bears fruit, and the fruit is not big and has a strong sour taste. However, this bayberry is most suitable for candied, and the sweet and sour taste will not taste greasy.
Xiao Liulang brought two cans, one with cores and the other with cores.
Although it is just two cans of food, this is the most famous candied bayberry dried in Pingcheng. It coincides with the fact that there are many students in the exam, and they are almost snatched up every day as soon as they come out.
Xiao Liulang went to queue up in the middle of the night and shrank for a long time in the cold wind.
The old lady pulled a seedless dried bayberry for dog eggs.
Dogdan drooled so hard that he sucked.
Before Gu Xiaoshun finished school, Xiao Liulang brought him something, which was a complete set of wood carving tools, which were particularly complete.
Zhaoguo has extremely strict control over iron, and it is difficult for ordinary people to buy such fine and complete iron tools. Xiao Liulang bought it only after cheating Luo Taishou.
Seeing Xiao Liulang's bag was shrunken.
Xiao Jingkong was walking the chicken, not caring about it on his face, but he glanced at the bag Xiao Liulang was carrying from time to time.
Gu Jiao caught his strangeness and asked, "Does Jingkong look forward to his gift too?"
"I didn't!" Xiao Jingkong turned his head proudly.
My bad brother-in-law won’t buy him a gift!
Xiao Liulang saw the little guy's awkwardness. The relationship between the two was already very bad, but after more than a month of separation, he was now not even unfamiliar.
Xiao Liulang took a set of Kongming locks from his bag and said, "If you don't want it, I'll give it to Goudan."
"No!" Xiao Jingkong jumped down from the chair and grabbed Kong Mingsuo in his arms, "He, he is young! He can't play!"
Goudan looked at the little brother blankly, not understanding what was going on.
Finally, it was Gu Jiao's.
It was a very exquisite brocade box. Just looking at the box, it felt valuable.
Gu Jiao secretly gestured at the length of the brocade box.
Is it a hairpin?
Such an expensive box, at least it is a silver hairpin.
Silver hairpins are rare in the countryside. They are usually wooden hairpins, and the more arrogant ones are copper hairpins. Only people with good conditions can buy silver hairpins, and they are only willing to wear them on very important days.
Of course, the most important thing is that if a man gives a woman a hairpin, it means something indescribable!
Gu Jiao's face said that I like it so much, I like it so much!
Tag.
Xiao Liulang opened the brocade box.
But it is not a hairpin, but a brush!
Gu Jiao was stunned on the spot.
Xiao Liulang said: "You always can't practice your handwriting well. In addition to the wrong posture of holding the pen, it also has something to do with the brush. This is a wolf hair brush made by a famous craftsman in Pingcheng, which is very suitable for your strength."
He introduced seriously, but Gu Jiao was not very good.
Is hairpin hot?
You want to give her a pen?
This is like giving a set of test questions to a student who is full of krypton gold games. Can she refuse?!
Looking at Gu Jiao holding back her crazy look, the old lady laughed so hard that her stomach hurt!
——There is a need called Liulang thinks you need it.
Gu Jiao held the wolf's pen in her arms, and her little face turned black.
Then Xiao Liulang handed her a bronze pair with the weekly diary money house engraved on it.
"I have my family income in the money house, so you can get it yourself if you need it."
Xiao Liulang did not say the specific amount, Gu Jiao did not ask, she was still immersed in the rampage of being given a brush.
What Gu Jiao didn't know was that this wolf-haired pen was more expensive than the gifts of the other people combined, and it was not something that could be bought with ordinary things like silver.
Gu Jiao didn't go wild for too long, she still remembers the serious matter.
Before leaving, Gu Jiao reminded Feng Lin to be sure to stare at Xiao Liulang practicing walking every day, and now she wants to accept the results!
Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang went to the west room and looked at his ankles.
The wounds of the operation were so faded that they were almost invisible. Gu Jiao stuck out her hand and pinched her: "Does it still hurt?"
Xiao Liulang shook his head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
"It doesn't hurt at all?" Gu Jiao looked up at him.
He nodded: "Yeah."
Gu Jiao pinched his calves again, which felt good. It seemed that Feng Lin was not lazy.
The once weakened texture has basically recovered after nearly four months of rehabilitation, which means that Xiao Liulang no longer has any weakness in his legs and feet.
He has not lost his crutches yet, and the biggest problem may be due to his psychology.
Gu Jiao has seen many similar cases in her previous life, some of which are because she is afraid of secondary injuries and excessive self-protection. However, this will mostly fade and improve with the passage of time.
The other situation is more complicated.
The patient has a heart knot.
If he can't untie that knot, he will stay in an injury state to punish himself or avoid something.
As Gu Jiao thought about it, Xiao Liulang had already put down his trouser legs and walked out with a crutch.
Gu Jiao looked at his cold and lonely back and couldn't help but wonder what he had experienced?
--
The story of Xiao Liulang getting into a scholar quickly spread throughout the countryside. As a wealthy family in the village, the Gu family also heard the news.
They really never dreamed that Xiao Liulang would be able to take the exam two cases in a row, and finally passed the exam for the student.
How could a poor student who was almost unable to get into Tianxiang Academy, just like Dashun?
Moreover, as both students in the statutory school, Xiao Liulang's ones are obviously more valuable, otherwise the rice I sent to Xiao Liulang would be much better than the rice I sent to Gu Dashun?
"The two cases are just one, and there is only three yuan apart." Gu Changlu said enviously at the dinner table.
Was he born unwilling to study?
no.
But he couldn't get into the school. Later he had two sons and he hoped they could get into it. But the family who was willing to study could not afford it. Gu Xiaoshun was the one who was not good at enrolling for free.
The Gu family didn't know that it was not that Xiao Liulang failed to get into the Little Sanyuan exam, but that he took the initiative to give up the Little Sanyuan.
The people at the table looked a little ugly.
The ugly one is Gu Dashun.
Xiao Liulang, who had always been looked down upon by himself, suddenly turned over and rode on his head. Gu Dashun was dissatisfied: "With Dean Li personally tutoring him, his progress is of course great. In the month before the county examination, I saw Dean Li call him to Zhongzhengtang every day."
He didn't believe that Xiao Liulang was soaring to the sky with his own abilities. Although Xiao Liulang was not as good as himself in terms of qualifications. If the person he was personally tutored by Dean Li, he would definitely get better results than Xiao Liulang.
To put it bluntly, he lost in resources.
If it were in the past, the Gu family would have followed the words of Xiao Liulang, but everyone did not answer a single word tonight.
This made Gu Dashun frown slightly.
He felt that the atmosphere at home recently seemed different from before. Everyone looked worried, except for Gu Xiaoshun.
