Chapter 61

  "This is an anti-theft chapter. "Mom's biased towards my second sister, it's okay for dad to be the mom too, as long as he's good to my sister...co, Little Bean scratched his head, this was a serious question, apparently it had stumped him, and his answer was also somewhat disorganized, with some illogical sentences, but Gu An'an understood it clearly. In this child's heart, as long as dad is good to her, he can be the mom too, and the little kid in front of him is also willing."

  Gu An'an used to be an only child and had never had any siblings. This kid's messy words somehow warmed Gu An'an's heart, and she said, "Dongdong, close your eyes."

  Gu Dongdong listened most to Gu Anan's words, as soon as she said it, Xiaodouding immediately closed his eyes.

  Gu An'an suddenly had a piece of candy in her palm, she unwrapped the wrapper and stuffed it into Gu Dongdong's mouth, saying, "Close your mouth, don't spit it out."

  Suddenly a sweetness burst in her mouth, and Xiaodou immediately wanted to spit it out, planning to share half with her sister.

  Listening to his sister's fierce scolding, he shut up, his mouth conditioned reflexively.

  Gu An's big eyes smiled into a line, curved like a crescent moon. She was delighted, "Is it sweet?" She felt happier seeing the little kid in front of her eating sugar than she did when she herself ate sugar.

  Gu Dongdong couldn't bear to open his mouth, afraid that the sweet taste inside would run away, and his words were unclear, "Mmm... really mmm..."

  This little look could make An laugh, and the siblings had a big fight.

  "Dinner is ready!", Wang Da Ying shouted outside. Gu An An jumped off the bed as soon as she heard it, and before leaving the room, she didn't forget to let Gu Dong Dong open his mouth to check if the sugar had melted, reminding him, "Don't tell anyone else, you ate sugar!"

  Gu Dongdong nodded his head like he was pounding garlic, licked his lips and said, "I haven't eaten, I haven't eaten anything."

  "Very clever."

  The brother and sister went hand in hand to the main room, where the table was already filled with people.

  Apart from the four houses on this side, three people are missing. Tang Lan Zhi took Gu Wan Wan to the provincial city, and Gu Wei Qiang disappeared after leaving the west house, and his family is used to him not being at home.

  Others were there.

  Oh! That's right, Gu An'an's third uncle Gu Weimin and his family are not in Gujia Village, they now live in the county town, doing carpentry work. Gu Weimin has been very skilled with his hands since he was a child, after graduating from elementary school, he didn't want to continue studying, so he went to the county town to learn carpentry skills from a master craftsman. He is smart and diligent, and the master likes him very much, treating him like half a son. The master has only one daughter, and when he passed away, he made a request that Gu Weimin become the son-in-law of the Li family.

  The reason is that he has only one daughter at home, and he has saved money for a lifetime. If he lets his daughter marry someone else, he will not be at ease. Only this closed-door disciple of his own can make him feel most at ease.

  Gu Weimin cherished the kindness of his teacher Fu, and also secretly developed feelings for Fu's daughter Li Yu'e. It was only natural that they ended up together. At that time, when it was said that he would become the son-in-law of the Li family, the whole village of Gu was shocked... After all, in this era, any family with slightly better conditions would not let their own son become a live-in son-in-law.

  Especially since Old Gu's family is considered a respectable family in Gu Village, this has really lost face for Old Master Gu.

  But Gu Weimin was a romantic, and in order to marry Li Yu'e, he made a big fuss at home for a long time. Later, Zhou Aijuan took pity on him and finally agreed.

  However, after the marriage, Gu Weimin settled down in the county town. The old Li's carpentry shop was famous for generations, and their family background was quite strong. They had a small courtyard house in the best location in the county town, which was bright and spacious. Those who originally looked down on Gu Weimin as a son-in-law were envious when they saw how prosperous he became after marriage.

  So, the Gu family had dinner together, with only Old Master Gu and Zhou Aijuan, Eldest Brother Gu Weiguo, Zhao Junyan, and their youngest son Gu Pingan, who was ten years old this year, two years older than Gu Dongdong.

  Logically, Gu Lao Da's son, Gu Wei Guo, should be the oldest among his fellow disciples. However, when he was young, he fell from a tree while stealing bird eggs and broke his leg. He didn't receive timely treatment, so he became lame. As a result, no one wanted to marry him when it came time for matchmaking.

  It wasn't until Gu Weiguo was over thirty that he met Zhao Junyan, who had escaped from disaster, and then married a wife and started a family.

  Gu Weiguo was dull and taciturn, Zhao Junyan also didn't like to talk usually. The 10-year-old Gu Ping'an was taught by the two of them to be somewhat introverted, afraid to meet people, and even dared not speak loudly. The three of them sat at the edge of the table, each holding a bowl, and the old man hadn't spoken yet, nor did they dare to start eating.

  Sitting in the position under Old Man Gu's hand was Lao Er and his family, Gu Weifu and Wang Da Ying, as well as Lao Er's three sons, Eldest Son Gu Shu, Second Son Gu Dan, and Third Son Gu Shuang. The eldest, Gu Shu, is twenty years old this year and is attending high school in the county town, but he has been held back a grade.

  Gu Dan and Gu An'an are the same age, both sixteen. However, Gu Dan is not cut out for studying, like Gu Wei Min, he likes to work with his hands. The tables, chairs, and stools in their home were basically all made by Gu Dan after he went on a trip to the county town and figured it out himself when he got back.

  Let's talk about Gu Shuang, the youngest son of Gu Weifu, who is the most spoiled one. He is like a little overlord in the Gu family, and everyone wants to give him the stars from the sky. Today, Gu Weiguo went to the riverbank and broke a hole in the ice, catching two big grass carp. It's rare for the family to have meat, and Gu Shuang's eyes are fixed on the fish in the big basin, swallowing every delicious part clean.

  When Gu An'an led out Gu Dongdong, there were still two empty seats on the old lady's right side, which was obviously left for Gu An'an and her brother.

  She roughly scanned the positions on the dinner table and also had a count in her mind.

  Apart from her parents and Gu Wanwan, there were also Third Uncle's family, but this table of people was not small either, with twelve people scattered around. The variety of dishes on the table was not many, but they made up for it in quantity. A big bowl of winter radish, plus a large bowl of sour fish, and the sour vegetables were all pickled by Zhou Aijuan herself, with two large jars stored in the kitchen, enough to serve as side dishes for a year. As for the snow pears used to pickle the sour vegetables, they were all picked from the mountain by An'an alone. The sour taste of the pickled vegetables was particularly good, and it had a nice texture when chewed.

  No wonder, that big bowl of sour fish, made Anan drool, and her mouth was filled with a lot more saliva.

  As soon as the sister and brother appeared in the main room, Wang Da Ying's mouth opened, "Ah ah, it's not me saying this, but how can you say that everyone sitting here is a senior, and yet you two siblings make all these seniors wait for you? It's really impolite. Can't say, as soon as your mom left, you two don't even know the most basic way to show respect to seniors."

  In Gu Anan's impression, Wang Da Ying always thought that Tang Lan Zhi was a cultured person, suppressing her team leader's wife and favoring Zhou Ai Ju's family, including the children of the fourth house, so Wang Da Ying didn't get along with them.

  Gu Dongdong was small, but he knew that Er Bao's wife wasn't saying anything good, and he subconsciously hid behind Gu Anan.

  Gu An'an pinched the small hand of Xiao Douding, not even looking at Wang Da Ying, and turned to Zhou Aijuan with a flattering face. "Grandma, I'm late with Dongdong, it's our fault, this biggest fish is for you as an apology from your granddaughter." As she spoke, she picked up her chopsticks and directly took a piece of fish with the least bones and the most meat from the bowl and put it in Zhou Aijuan's bowl. Of course, Gu Lao Yezi didn't fall behind either. If she remembered correctly, the old man liked to eat fish belly, especially with some fatty tissue on top, which was extremely fragrant when bitten into.
