Li Qiu turned around bravely and greeted Aunt Niu: "Auntie, have you eaten?"
Aunt Niu's eyes turned to Li Qiu and she smiled meaningfully: "Li Qiu, where did you sleep last night?"
Li Qiu frowned: "Of course I'm at Zhang's house. Don't get me wrong, Auntie. I went out early in the morning and came here for a wander. Brother Chang'an happened to be working. I didn't eat yet, so I made some porridge."
"Is it?"
Aunt Niu didn't quite believe it.
"What a coincidence. You can wander to Gu Laizi's house early in the morning. You don't need to cut pig grass or chop firewood? Your old sow is breastfeeding. I heard your mother say that the old sow has a picky mouth. You like to eat fresh pigweed mixed with wheat bran, why don’t you go to hunt pigweed and come here to make porridge, why don’t you starve the old sow to death?”
Beginning of Autumn is very annoying to Aunt Niu.
This person is not a bad person, but he likes to gossip and has no control over his words. He spends all day talking about his parents and his family.
"I'm getting married soon. I'm embroidering my dowry at home. If I go to work in the mountains, my hands will get rough."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Aunt Niu winked and clicked her tongue.
"Liqiu, look at how squeamish you are. When people in our village get married, they have to work even on the day of giving birth. But you don't have to work when you get married? What are you afraid of if your hands are rough? You're not a young lady from a wealthy family. Our hands are designed to work.”
"You can't do this. Gu Laizi is already lazy. If you marry another lazy woman, you can't survive? Huh, what do the ladies in the village embroider for dowries? Just pull a piece of red cloth and make a coat to wear. Look how pretentious you are."
Li Qiu thought that since the nightmare of the Red Sleeve Move, her mouth had become more and more eloquent, but compared with Aunt Niu, she was still far behind.
Aunt Niu was so loud when she opened her mouth that she couldn't even get a word in.
After finally waiting for Aunt Niu to take a breath, Li Qiu was about to speak when Gu Changan, who had returned from work, interrupted.
"Aunt Niu, were you mute in your last life? You have a mouth in this life, and you will see what you can do. You won't have a moment to spare. Are you afraid of suffocating yourself if you don't speak?"
Aunt Niu suddenly exploded: "Gu Laizi, you little brat, who are you talking about!"
"What are you talking about, you little old brat! My Liqiu family can do whatever they want, what does it have to do with you? When you married Old Uncle Dog, you were clumsy and had no money and couldn't put on your wedding dress, so you just coveted my family's Liqiu period. It's too late, Auntie is just an old vegetable now, just follow Uncle Gou with peace of mind, don't envy my family for the beginning of autumn anymore, be careful that Uncle Gou knows and doesn't want you."
After Gu Changan finished speaking, he dragged Li Qiu into the yard.
Aunt Niu swayed her chubby body and followed, pinching her waist and before she started scolding, Gu Changan came out with a hoe.
The newly beaten hoe was shining brightly, making Aunt Niu's face turn pale: "Gu Laizi, wait, wait until my old man comes back, and ask him to beat you to death!"
Li Qiu was very worried and pulled Gu Changan's sleeve to prevent him from catching up.
"We are all neighbors. It's not good to make such an ugly scene."
Gu Changan still had a dark face and grunted in a rough voice: "She's not afraid of being ugly, so what am I afraid of? Don't worry about it, she just has a bad mouth! When I was a child, she used to say that I beat my father and my mother. , and when my grandfather passed away, she said that I was a tough person and anyone who touched me would not do well."
"Why is my vegetable garden barren? It's all because of her! One day I was starving and found a cabbage in the vegetable patch, so I took it home. When she saw it, she was stunned and said that I stole it. He stole vegetables from a young age and stole money when he grew up. He was either a good person or a scoundrel. When I got angry, I threw away all the vegetable fields."
The more he talked, the angrier he became, and his eyes turned red.
"If it weren't for the sake of Uncle Gou, I would definitely beat her. Uncle Gou is a good person, but he doesn't like to talk. She nagged him so much that he ran to look after the mountains for the landlord's house. He came back once a year. Her son She also went on a boat with others, and it was her mouth that caused the trouble. She hasn't been taught a lesson yet, so sooner or later, she will encounter a tough problem and cut out her tongue."
"Okay, okay, let's close the door and live our own lives and ignore her."
Li Qiu felt distressed and funny at the same time. He scooped out water for Gu Changan to wash his hands and feet, then served porridge, and the two of them sat next to the wooden pillar to eat.
"I borrowed this bowl from my third aunt's house, don't dislike it."
Although Gu Changan is a lazier, he eats and looks very elegant, and it seems that he has developed a good habit since he was a child.
Li Qiu held the bowl and watched him eating the porridge with a smile: "I don't dislike it, I'm just afraid that you dislike the food I cook."
It was she who told Gu Changan not to buy dishes, cups and other things now, but to slowly add them after she gets married.
The dishes and chopsticks she picked out herself made the meal taste delicious.
"What are you talking about?" Gu Changan picked up a pair of chopsticks and scrambled eggs with green onions. "Can my wife's cooking not be delicious? It's so delicious! Believe it or not, I can just eat this plate of fried eggs with green onions." The second half of the pot is filled with big steamed buns.”
Li Qiu burst into laughter.
Look at his useless fool. Scrambled eggs with green onions are not delicious. He can still eat half a pot of steamed buns. It's just bragging.
"Don't praise me. No one taught me how to cook. I just figured it out on my own. When I cook in the Zhang family, no one praises me even when I eat it. Occasionally I use oil and I get beaten and scolded." After a meal, I don’t know whether the food I cooked is good or not. Anyway, no one eats the pickles. If I cook stewed meat, scrambled eggs and steamed fish, it will definitely be eaten up."
Gu Changan shouted that the Zhang family was not happy.
"That old lady Liu is so stingy. How can she cook without adding oil? Is it still delicious? Liqiu, don't worry. From now on, when our family cooks, you can put as much oil as you want, even if you only use one for each dish. I can eat even a jar of lard."
"Bah!" Li Qiu scolded him with a smile, "Who would put a jar of lard in a dish of stir-fry? That's not called stir-fry, that's called lard pickles!"
Both of them started to laugh, and Li Qiu stopped laughing.
"Why are you always staring at me and giggling? Eat quickly, the porridge is almost cold."
"Li Qiu, you look so beautiful when you smile," Gu Changan's eyes were shining, "I just like to stare at you. The more I look at you, the more I like you. If I had known that I could marry you by squatting in the field and shitting, how many years earlier would I have You should go, every day!”
"Oh, I'm eating. What's the matter with shit? Hurry up and eat!"
Li Qiu scolded him, lowered his head and couldn't help laughing.
Brother Chang'an is really a scoundrel, he likes to say some inappropriate things.
"After you finish eating, you can go on with your work and I'll wash the dishes."
Gu Changan disagreed: "Don't you want to go back to do needlework? Don't worry about it, I will just do it."
Li Qiu did not refuse. After she got married, she wanted to do needlework and sell it, so she had to take good care of her hands. If her hands were rough, the material would be easily damaged.
After finishing her meal, she said goodbye to Gu Changan and walked to Aunt Sun's house with her head lowered. Thinking of Gu Changan's silly look just now, she pursed her lips in happiness.
Passing by Zhang's house, I saw a mule cart parked at the door, so I stopped and took a look curiously.
When Heihu's wife saw her, she quickly waved to her: "Liqiu, this is that person's car. Come back quickly!"
