Chapter 23 Who is the mother?

It was already afternoon after the work was done.

Gu Chunzhu and Su Wangqin were busy putting the peeled rabbit skins and badger skins in the ragged back baskets. When they saw the rotten vegetable leaves there, there were only a few bug eyes or yellow leaves.

She couldn't help but ask Sister Gui: Can you send me these leaves if I don't want them? I'll go home and get some pickles to eat.

Let's go, it's not worth a lot of money. In the past, I brought it back to give favors. Sister Gui also helped her organize it and put it in her back basket, while sighing: Chunzhu, you hunted and came here. , I think you are destined to chat together.

Well, come when you hunt.

But now this season, I am afraid that there is no prey in the mountains, Gu Chunzhu still responded with a smile, said goodbye to Sister Gui, and left the back door of Xiying Building with Su Wangqin with a basket on his back.

The two were hungry for a long time. They were walking on the spacious stone-paved street in the county town. Gu Chunzhu dragged Su Wangqin and pointed to the biscuits stall: Brother Wang, let's go buy two pancakes to eat.

Okay. Su Wangqin listened to her tone.

Gu Chunzhu looked at Su Wangqin gratefully. He was carrying the heavy basket, and her own was empty. She ran quickly and went to buy two pancakes.

A penny or two is made of brown rice noodles, and there is no sweetness to satisfy hunger. She asked the big brother who sold the cakes for two bowls of water.

The two put down the basket, and just squatted on the edge of the booth without caring about their image. They took the cake and bit it up, only to feel comfortable in the water.

Gu Chunzhu stopped after eating half of the pancake.

Looking at her appearance, Su Wangqin wanted to say something and remembered what she said last night. With a rolling throat, she took the unfinished cake and ate it in her stomach.

If you can't lose weight, eat well, people will starve. Su Wangqin gave her a distressed look, drank all the water in the bowl gudong, gudong, he got up and returned both bowls Big brother who sells cakes.

Seeing that he didn't mind eating up the half of the cake he had left, Gu Chunzhu had a feeling that he couldn't tell. Chen Chongke had never done such a thing in his previous life.

She was still in a daze, Su Wangqin took Gu Chunzhu's arm and pulled her up, Let's go quickly, the ox cart is about to return to the village, and it will be late to live in the county seat.

Two trips a day? The two walked briskly. Su Wangqin's legs and feet were inconvenient and it was more strenuous to walk. Gu Chunzhu asked while saying, If you can't go back, just stay in the county town for one night, we sold a lot of money. Woolen cloth!

Yeah. Su Wangqin responded, but he still didn't slow down.

When they arrived at the place of the bullock cart, the bullock cart was slowly starting, just in time for the two of them to breathe a sigh of relief. The bullock cart was bumped for another two hours and it was already evening when they reached the town. The clouds in the sky were already Bright red.

Gu Chunzhu had something to do in the town, so he counted ten coins from his arms, Brother Wang, go buy two white-flour steamed buns for your mother, and bring something delicious to the children. I'll go to the stall for a walk. I didn’t come out to sell river prawns today, so I don’t know if there will be repeat customers.”

Okay. Su Wangqin took the copper plate and walked towards the steamed bun shop.

Gu Chunzhu rushed to the stall non-stop, and saw that the uncle who sold vegetables was filling his bamboo basket with Chinese cabbage before he left, and he was carrying the baskets at both ends on his shoulders to get up.

Master, how is business today?

The uncle happened to look up to see Gu Chunzhu, and he put down the pole and greeted warmly, Little sister-in-law, why are you here so late today, everyone in the market is gone.

I went to the county town to do some business today, and I just came to ask if anyone has inquired about my river shrimp. Gu Chunzhu asked with frowning eyes. It is dangerous for Su Wangqin to enter the mountains, and there is no prey in winter. Thinking about it, even if you catch one or two bowls every day, it will be an income.

The uncle who sold vegetables is also a stubborn man. When Gu Chunzhu asked questions for a while, he took out the dry tobacco stick from the basket and held it in his mouth, while breathing out the smoke and said: Yes, how can there be no, you tomorrow. Come to me and take care of the booth for you, and still beside me, let's chat.

Okay, then I'll go back first, my family is still waiting for me in front. Gu Chunzhu asked clearly before leaving.

Little sister-in-law, the bowl! The vegetable seller was so anxious that he knocked on the dry tobacco pole on the tree. Gu Chunzhu then remembered that he had left the bowl with him when he exchanged Chinese cabbage with him yesterday, so he hurriedly took it and went to look for Su Wangqin.

When he was about to reach Baozipu, he ran into Su Wangqin head-on. He lowered the bun on the top of his head to face her, and Gu Chunzhu felt a bad premonition when he saw that his hand was empty and even the basket was missing.

Brother Wang, what happened? Her voice was urgent.

Su Wangqin kept his head down and didn't say anything, Gu Chunzhu was anxious, did he meet someone from the Su family again and they robbed them? She couldn't help reaching out to hold up his face. Just as she was about to ask, she saw that his face had been scratched several times, and it was still covered in blood.

What's going on here, don't you tell me that you're not making me anxious? Gu Chunzhu stomped his feet, and forgot to remove the hand on his face for a while, Did you get robbed?

No. Su Wangqin lowered his eyes, covering his black eyes, looking a little silent.

Seeing that she didn't say anything today, Gu Chunzhu had to figure it out, so she stood there with her cheeks bulging, and made up her mind that if Su Wangqin didn't say anything, she wouldn't go back to the village.

Go back...

Don't go back, you said.

Seeing her so stubborn, Su Wangqin pursed his lips and could only hold back the truth.

The words came out, The one who came out just now will meet our mother, and said that we have no filial piety throughout the year, so...

I said that there is no one else except her. Gu Chunzhu's fist clenched.

Su Wangqin's words were consistent with what she had guessed in her heart, but she also felt that it was strange that Mrs. Su was still scratching her own son even after taking the things away. By the way, she wondered: Isn't she helping us take care of the children, why is she still in town? already?

It's not my mother, it's your mother. Su Wangqin's voice was even lower, and his face was very ugly. Gu Chunzhu's mother, Hao Shi, said a lot of unpleasant things before taking the things away. few times.

Hearing this, Gu Chunzhu's face turned green. It turned out that the original owner's mother was holding her back.

She searched through her memory. The original owner's mother was also mean. She paid 10 taels of silver as a betrothal gift, and the dowry didn't even have a quilt. Fortunately, her sister-in-law secretly stuffed a silver hairpin for her.

She married to the Hao family in Xiaohetou Village only twice, and they were both searching and scraping to beat the autumn wind, which was more ruthless and stingy than Madam Su.

No, things can't be taken away for nothing! Gu Chunzhu came back to his senses.

Although Su Wangqin's back basket contained three little rabbits and a pile of rotten vegetables, it was one of the poor people's few possessions, and Hao used to take it like this. She will have more property in the future. more excessive.
