Chapter 220 Crying Children Have Candies
Chapter 220: A child who can cry has sugar to eat
When Uncle Jun saw Gu Yan like this, he thought to himself, it was a blessing that Gu Jianghe became a college student and got his sister out. Although he was still stupid, he was like a person. He pointed to the carriage and said, "Then what, go up."
"Thank you, Uncle Jun." Gu Jianghe threw the luggage on and helped Gu Yan up.
While gnawing on the candied haws, Gu Yan was lying on her luggage, crossing her legs, looking at the blue sky, thinking that she could also get on a "convertible". This is such a good luck!
The shaking carriage made Gu Yan sleepy. If it weren't for the cold, and the large-scale verification column "Is it true" performed by Uncle Jun in front, Gu Yan might have really fallen asleep.
Except for a brief greeting with Gu Jianghe at the beginning, Uncle Jun asked about Wang Youli's family throughout the whole process.
"I heard they opened a hotel there, is that true?"
"I heard that their family can earn one or two hundred yuan a day, is that true?"
"I heard that the toilets in the house they live there are not smelly yet, is it true?"
At this time, Gu Jianghe's IQ was online, and he answered very cautiously, such as "I'm not very clear", "You can ask for politeness", "Is that so amazing", and so on, quite high-level answers.
Uncle Jun was disappointed that he couldn't get the answer he wanted and turned to Gu Jianghe's affairs.
Gu Jianghe adheres to the principle of low-key and says things like "It's pretty good", "It's okay", "It's enough to spend your salary", "It's all the same".
Ten miles away, the carriage shook for more than half an hour, and finally arrived at the entrance of the village. Gu Yan and the others were embarrassed to sit in the car and quickly got off with their luggage.
It was daylight and the Chinese New Year was almost over again. There were a lot of people in the village. Gu Jianghe was the first college student in their village. He was surrounded by people as soon as he got off the car.
Gu Jianghe has no habit of smoking, which is very embarrassing. It seems that men all start with cigarettes.
Gu Yan didn't care about him, and carried a luggage. According to Gu Yanyan's memory, she walked towards the second alley at the entrance of the village, and the second home was Gu Yanyan's home.
Along the way, the poverty level in the village was even poorer than Gu Yan’s memory of her childhood. There were very few red brick houses in this village, most of which were earthen houses.
Gu Yanyan's family is also a mud house, even the main door is built with adobe, and the two unpainted wooden doors have decayed. Standing at the door, she hesitated for a long time until she heard the sound of the neighbors talking in the yard of the opposite door, she pushed open the door and walked in.
There are two crooked-neck trees in the yard, one is a jujube tree and the other is also a jujube tree.
The leaves fell all over, only bare branches left. The house was a dirt house, and the windows were glass, but they were all very small. There were two small houses each, one of which had the doors and windows blackened, and there was a chimney on the roof, which was obvious to the kitchen. The other room had no door, so you could see some broken wood, baskets, dustpans and other rags inside.
A wire was pulled in the yard, with some washed clothes, torn towels and rag heads on it.
This is Gu Yanyan's home, which reveals dilapidation everywhere and poverty everywhere.
There were two little girls in the yard with scarves around their necks and braids on their heads playing. They looked eight or nine years old, and the child was only three or four years old. At first glance, it was her sister taking care of her sister.
Through Gu Yanyan's memory, Gu Yan learned that these were two children of Gu Yanyan's eldest brother Gu Jianghai's family.
The eldest daughter is Gu Chunmei, and the younger daughter is Gu Chunliu.
The older little girl Gu Chunmei saw Gu Yan enter the yard and called out to the room, "Grandma, the guest is here."
Gu Yan smiled at the little girl and said, "No, Meizi, I am Aunt Yanyan."
The little girl looked at Gu Yan as if she was fine, but when she heard the four words "Aunt Yanyan", her little face suddenly became panicked.
At this time, Gu Yanyan's mother wrapped a headscarf on her head and walked out of the house. When she came out and saw Gu Yan holding her luggage, she stopped standing at the door and said suspiciously, "Yanyan?"
"Yes, mom." Gu Yan's "mom" shouted a little confused.
Gu’s mother’s hair was almost white, and she looked almost seventy years old. In fact, she was only sixty years old. She was wearing a patched cotton jacket with a patched slanted collar and an apron around her waist. The typical image of an old rural lady in the 1980s and 1990s in Gu Yan’s memory.
Gu's mother ran over with a "Ouch" and shouted at Gu Yan, "My son, why are you so thin?"
Gu Yan didn't know how to face Gu's mother, but she was so amused and laughed and cried by her saying "How come she is so thin".
To be honest, her current body shape cannot be classified as the type of thin, but I can't remember Gu Yanyan before, she must have lost a lot of weight.
I have to say that Gu Yanyan’s parents are really good parents. Gu Yanyan is like that, and her parents don’t dislike her at all.
"You damn girl, you haven't come back for so long. Do you know if you know that your father and I are almost dead?" Gu's mother started crying while saying that, and even patted Gu Yan several times.
Uh. It hurts a lot!
"Don't cry." Gu Yan said quickly, "Aren't I back now? Have you eaten? I'm hungry."
Actually, Gu Yan is not very hungry, but Gu’s mother is crying here, so she says she is hungry and find something for her.
"I'll go and get some notes for you."
Gu Yan hurriedly said, "Jianghe is back, here we are at the back, so we need to put more."
"Jianghe is back too?" Gu's mother was obviously even more surprised. She quickly wiped her tears and pushed Gu Chunmei and said, "Meizi, go and call your grandfather back, and say your second aunt and your second uncle are back." After that, she explained to Gu Yan, "Your father has gone to your third uncle's house, and your sister Xiao Fengming is getting married."
"Don't call Meizi, let your grandpa be busy." Gu Yan grabbed Gu Chunmei, "Aunt will bring you candy."
As Gu Yan said that, she put her luggage bag on the ground, squatted on the ground and took out the bag of candy that Huang Qiuying gave her.
Gu Chunmei was a little older and could still control herself. Gu Chunliu couldn't help it. She threw down the things she was playing with, ran over and squatted beside Gu Yan.
Although the children's clothes are poor, they are all clean. Although they are not as white as those in the city, their little faces are also clean and their eyes are clear, which is very cute.
"Give it," Gu Yan grabbed a handful of them and gave them to Gu Chunmei. "Eat at most two pieces a day, be careful that if you eat too much, you will get bugs."
Gu Chunmei saw that Gu Yan had actually grabbed so many milk candies and put them in her hands. Her eyes were still so big that she couldn't believe it.
"I want it too!" Gu Chunliu started crying.
Gu's mother shouted from the kitchen, "Yanyan, don't mess with the child!"
Gu’s mother still thought that Gu Yanyan was still the same Gu Yanyan.
"I didn't mess with you!" Gu Yan quickly pushed a piece of candy away and stuffed it into Gu Chunliu's mouth. The child stopped crying.
Look, a typical crying child has candy to eat!
Among the things that Gu Yan brought, candies are suitable for children, but these candies are enough for Gu Chunmei and Gu Chunliu. Many years later, when they recalled the good things they ate when they were young, the first thing was the candies brought back from the city by her second aunt.
When Gu Jianghe escaped and returned home, Gu's mother had already laid the noodles, one big bowl for each person, and two poached eggs lay on the noodles.
Of course, Gu's mother was happier when she saw Gu Jianghe. After all, she was a son, and she was such a promising son! Gu's mother looked at Gu Jianghe and cried and laughed. She grabbed his hand and couldn't let go, and she couldn't even see it.
