Song Captou hesitated and said: "I wanted to tell your mother yesterday, but I didn't have time to elaborate. I will tell you the same thing today. When your father is gone, according to the custom, a son or relative can take over this position. You and your mother Let’s discuss who will take his place? We have already found someone to make the coffin and will come over tomorrow to bury your father.”
At this time, the Gu family's mother and son, who were hiding nearby, were overjoyed when they heard this.
The second child has no sons, so his nephew will naturally take over this position.
The two looked at each other and left quietly.
Gu Yunxiao couldn't help but feel moved when he heard the news.
In his previous life, he had been struggling in the apocalypse for more than ten years, fighting his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and had long forgotten his gender.
Although the profession of being a police officer is dangerous, it can support a family.
If there is someone in the family who works in the yamen, the best grandmother and uncle will definitely not dare to bully the family members.
In order to protect her mother and younger siblings, she had to disguise herself as a man and take over her father's position, so that only mother and son could survive.
Send Uncle Song and others away.
She quickly thought of her grandmother and uncle, and glanced at them, who seemed to be still in the yard just now.
He must have heard what Uncle Song said, and he will definitely not give up tomorrow.
I am a woman, how can I become a police officer?
I quickly thought of my uncle's eldest cousin. Because the two families are far apart and it takes a long time to get together, I can pretend to be the eldest cousin.
Outsiders don't know my eldest cousin, and my grandmother and uncle have never met him.
Using some makeup, widening the eyebrows, slightly changing the skin tone, and putting on men's clothes, there are many cousins who look alike.
This matter must be discussed with the mother and cannot be hidden from the two younger sisters.
At this time, the cry of the little baby came from the room.
The two younger brothers must have been hungry. She remembered that there were several boxes of milk powder among the piles of supplies.
She immediately went into the kitchen and took out a few spoons from the space.
Then, I found a large coarse porcelain bowl and boiled it with boiling water in the pot.
Remembering that my brothers were exhausted, I dipped in some milky white spiritual essence and stirred it for a while before bringing it into the house.
I saw my mother waking up and slapping her two sons helplessly.
"Mom, I was afraid that my brothers would be hungry, so I found someone to express some goat's milk. I boiled it in a pot just now and gave it to my brothers to drink."
Wang Meihua knew how many children she had given birth to, and she said with some common sense: "Yunxiao, if you have any warm water, give your brother a few mouthfuls first."
"Mom, wait a moment!"
Gu Yunxiao hurried to the kitchen, wanting to get a bowl of warm water.
Gu Yunlan promptly delivered a bowl of warm water, "Sister, call me if you need anything."
Such a sensible sister!
Gu Yunxiao fed his brother a few spoons of boiled water and some prepared milk powder.
She found her two younger brothers looking at her with their bright eyes, and the feeling of total dependence made her heart beat. She secretly said to the original owner: Don't worry, I will help you protect your mother and younger brothers and sisters.
There seemed to be a slight "Thank you!" sound in her mind, and then everything disappeared.
Gu Yunxiao guessed that the original owner had disappeared.
I saw my two brothers closed their eyes and fell asleep after eating and drinking.
She whispered her plan to her mother.
Wang Meihua suddenly said with tears in her eyes: "Yunxiao, you are a girl, what will you do when you become a policeman?"
"Mom, when the younger brothers grow up, I will give it to my younger brother. If a few bastards from my uncle's family are allowed to become police officers, our whole family will definitely be bullied to death."
After Mr. Gu's three sons were born, his grandmother regarded them as baby bumps, and they were nicknamed Big Dan, Er Dan, and San Dan respectively.
Gu Yunxiao learned the name from his mind, and cursed angrily in his heart: Uncle Beast has a bunch of eggs in his house, and they will all be destroyed in the end.
Wang Meihua said hesitantly: "You are a woman, will your reputation be ruined if people know you are among men?"
Gu Yunxiao said disapprovingly: "Mom, my father and I have learned a few tricks that others can't see. If you don't believe me, I'll put on makeup for a while and you won't be able to recognize me. When my brothers grow up, let them take my position. If If I don’t take my place, will our whole family still have a chance to survive?”
Wang Meihua had tears in her eyes. She understood the seriousness of the matter and finally nodded and said, "Okay."
In order to reassure his mother, Gu Yunxiao returned to his room and quickly took out the cosmetics from the space.
First I took a look at my appearance. I was very similar to my mother and two younger sisters. I was very beautiful, with big phoenix eyes, but my face was slutty, and I was obviously malnourished.
She immediately let go of her nervousness. She darkened her pale face first, then widened her eyebrows, and carefully combed her hair into a manly look.
The hair near the wound on the back of her head was sticky due to heavy bleeding. She did not dare to wash it with water, so she simply cut it off with scissors. Fortunately, her hair was thick and covered the wound.
Then, I found my father’s old clothes and put them on.
With her slender figure, she looked like a robe when she put on her father's loose clothes, which could only be gathered and tied around the waist with strips of cloth.
She just walked into her mother's room, looked at her frowning mother and said, "Auntie, can I be your son from now on?"
Wang Meihua was struggling in her heart, should she let Yunxiao dress up as a man?
When I heard this title, I immediately understood what my daughter meant.
Although she is cowardly, she is not stupid.
"Yunxiao, do you mean to replace your eldest cousin?"
Gu Yunxiao nodded and said: "Tomorrow, tell me that my uncle doesn't trust you, and let me swap with my eldest cousin. My eldest cousin will help you support the family, accept your aunt as your adoptive mother, and justifiably replace your father as a policeman, and his name will also be mine." Right?"
Wang Meihua looked at her daughter's face. If she hadn't known it in advance, she would have thought she was a young man in front of her, but his clothes were too baggy.
"Yunxiao, take off your clothes and Mom will help you change them. Mom thought about it just now. If you don't take up your father's position, your grandmother and uncle will definitely continue to find trouble and bully us. It's useless for Mom to change such a heavy thing. The burden is on your shoulders.”
Feeling his mother's love for him again, Gu Yunxiao felt soft in his heart.
In this life, she has a mother, and her mother is so kind to her. Even if she is not the original owner, she is still willing to stand up for the mother-daughter relationship.
She said in a comforting tone: "I am the eldest, my younger brothers and sisters are younger, so of course I have to protect you and your younger brothers and sisters. Mom, please rest, I will cook first, and after dinner I will change my clothes myself."
Wang Meihua was indeed weak, so she nodded and said, "Then I'll take a rest."
Seeing his mother closing her eyes, Gu Yunxiao came to the kitchen.
I found that the kitchen only had a small bag of thick bean noodles, two bowls of corn and a dry cabbage.
She sighed in her heart that her family was too poor.
While her two younger sisters were away, she quickly took out a farm-raised white-striped chicken, a bag of red dates, a basket of eggs, half a bag of fine noodles and several kilograms of millet from the space.
Then, she called Yun Lan over and said, "Second sister, you light the fire and I'll cook."
The hungry Gu Yunlan looked at the white chicken and other things with bright eyes and asked: "Sister, where did these things come from?"
Gu Yunxiao said calmly while washing the white chicken, "Uncle Song and the others sent it!"
The family would not ask Mr. Song about this matter, so she could only blame him.
Gu Yunlan asked doubtfully: "Sister, why didn't I see Uncle Song carrying these things?"
Gu Yunxiao's face tightened and he said: "Uncle Song is the head catcher, so he still carries the things? Of course it was the uncle at the back who carried them, and he put them directly into the kitchen. I think Uncle Song and others bought these things together. .”
Gu Yunlan believed it to be true and nodded repeatedly: "Sister, you are right!"
After hearing that the second sister stopped questioning, Gu Yunxiao quickly cooked chicken soup for his mother.
Then, put a large bowl of white flour into a basin and stir it into small lumps with water.
Use another pot to make gnocchi and beat a few eggs.
The mother and daughter were obviously malnourished and needed to take care of themselves.
When she saw the dark black coarse salt in the salt shaker, she was stunned.
Blocking the second sister's sight with her body, she took out a little salt from the space, put it into the pot, stirred it evenly, and quickly poured the pimple soup into the basin.
"Okay, let's go eat first. Hold the chicken soup in the pot first. I'll serve a bowl of chicken soup to my mother later."
The Gu family didn't eat last night, and the best grandmother and uncle came to the door early in the morning, and they have been making trouble until now.
When Gu Yunlan heard that there was going to be an evening meal, it was the noodle soup that she had not eaten for a long time. She immediately beamed with joy and said, "I'll call my little sister!"
Before she finished speaking, she ran to call her third sister like a little rabbit.
Soon, several bowls of fragrant pimple soup were placed on the Kang table next to Wang Meihua's bed, and a bowl of chicken soup with a few boiled jujubes floating in it. The fragrance spread into the room, showing the smoke and fire in the world.
Gu Yunxiao shouted in a low voice: "Mom, wake up and eat something."
Wang Meihua opened her eyes and quickly smelled the fragrance.
"Yunxiao, what did you make to eat? It smells so good!"
"Mom, I just made a few bowls of pimple soup and boiled the chicken soup for you. I kept the rest in the pot. You can eat the chicken and drink the soup again in a few hours."
"Why are there chickens at home? Where did the fine noodles come from?"
Before Gu Yunxiao could answer, Gu Yunlan walked in and said, "Mom, it's Uncle Song and the others who brought it. You drink some chicken soup first, and the two brothers will have milk to drink."
As the saying goes: Children from poor families will be the masters early. Gu Yunxiao did not expect that his second sister, only ten years old, would know how to drink chicken soup to produce milk.
Wang Meihua glanced at her daughters with relief, and then at her two sons lying beside her. With tears in her eyes, she nodded slightly and said, "Okay!"
She picked up the bowl of chicken soup and drank it in a few mouthfuls, and also ate a few jujubes.
Then, he picked up the bowl and drank pimple soup with several girls.
"Yunxiao, the pimple soup is delicious. Drink more."
Gu Yunxiao said distressedly: "Mom, I've done a lot, so you should drink more."
"Okay, mother, drink more too!"
Mother and daughter were all hungry, so they shared half a basin of pimple soup and ate it.
Gu Yunxiao said to his second sister, "Yun Lan, you go wash the dishes, and I'll go see my father."
"OK!"
Gu Yunxiao came to the room where his father had died and looked at his father lying on the door panel.
There were several wounds on my father's body. The fatal wound was probably at his heart, and he must have bled a lot at that time.
Her tears couldn't help but flow out, and she said like an oath: "Dad, whoever killed you, I will make him pay with his life!"
