She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys
Chapter 43: Selling Meat in Town
Gu Qingqing raised her hand and pointed at her head and said, "I used to be obedient just like you. One day, my mother-in-law broke my head for a mouthful of milk, and then I realized that if people are used to being obedient, they will not treat us as human beings. Since I was almost beaten to death by them, what should I be afraid of? I went crazy and made a fuss, and then they were afraid of me, and then they divided our room."
After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she still insisted on stuffing the money into her hand and said, "Keep it. If you run into any problems in the future, at least you won't be without money."
Before leaving, Gu Qingqing looked at Lu Xiaocao's belly and asked, "How many months?"
Lu Xiaocao touched her belly and said, "It's almost six months."
Gu Qingqing nodded, "That's great. Help mother support the family in the future."
Lu Xiaocao had already been successfully brainwashed by Gu Qingqing, and now she nodded repeatedly with shining eyes, "I will, big sister."
"I'm going back. If you encounter any problems that you really can't solve in the future, come to Niutoushan Village to find me. But I don't live in the village now. I live at the foot of the mountain east of the village."
Gu Qingqing came and left in a hurry. With her participation, the Gu family gradually became better and better.
......
Although Gu Qingqing did not eat in Shuangxi Village, it was already noon when she rushed back to her home in Niutou Mountain.
Wen Wuyan saw her coming back and greeted her with a smile, "You must be hungry. There is sorghum rice, some meat and broth in the pot. Wash your hands and eat quickly."
Gu Qingqing was not in a hurry to eat. Instead, she pointed at the bamboo shed that had been built on the stove and asked, "Why are you so quick? The framework has been built? Where are they? Have they had lunch yet?"
"Yes, we cooked some sorghum rice for lunch. They soaked it in meat soup and ate it. Now we are going to cut thatch."
"Didn't you eat the meat steamed in the pot? Isn't that ready?" Gu Qingqing asked in confusion.
"When Uncle Zhang He heard that we were going to take the meat to the town to sell, he refused to eat it no matter what, saying that rice with meat soup was already the best thing that could be. But I gave each person a piece of bone with meat on it, which was not bad." Wen Wuyan continued to split bamboo strips with his hands.
"Uncle Zhang He is here too?"
"Well, he said he had nothing to do at home, so he came to help today. He also said that after he built the bamboo shed for us, he would use the remaining bamboo to enclose a yard for us. By the way, I just coaxed Sanhua to sleep, but she must be a little hungry."
"Okay, I got it." Gu Qingqing said and went back to the house.
The milk she left when she left early was only enough for Sanhua to eat until noon. She came back a little late, and Sanhua must have cried herself to sleep.
Almost as soon as she returned to the room, Sanhua woke up when she heard the noise. When she was sure that her mother had returned, she grinned, but as she smiled, her brows furrowed.
Gu Qingqing picked up Sanhua, but Sanhua instinctively wanted to find food in her arms.
Gu Qingqing closed the door of the hut and started to feed Sanhua.
After Gu Qingqing opened the door, Dahua came in, took Sanhua from her, and said to Gu Qingqing, "Mom, let me take care of Sanhua, you go eat."
"Have you eaten?" Gu Qingqing asked.
Dahua shook her head, "I ate eggs when I came back and I'm not hungry anymore. Mom, go first."
Gu Qingqing did not insist. After handing Sanhua to Dahua, she went to heat up the little bone soup left in the jar and washed a few wild vegetables and threw them in.
Gu Qingqing looked at Erhua who was following her. She smiled and asked, "Erhua, do you want to drink some more broth?"
Erhua pursed her lips and smiled and nodded.
At noon, Wen Wuyan said he didn't want to eat, but Gu Qingqing still used a bowl to serve him a lump of food the size of an egg, then took out four slices of the cooked pork and added a little salted vegetables, "One slice each, taste it and see if you like it."
It was the first time for Dahua and Erhua to see red-roasted meat. This time, just by smelling the aroma, they couldn't help swallowing their saliva.
"Mom, this meat smells so good. I smelled the fragrance this morning, but dad doesn't allow me to eat it." Erhua was so greedy that she sold out her father in an instant.
Gu Qingqing smiled and rubbed Erhua's head, "You little greedy cat, eat it quickly!"
Gu Qingqing admired the fat and lean meat slices. The aroma of the meat soaked in salt and vegetables wafted across her nose. She took a bite and the fat melted in her mouth without being greasy at all. The lean meat was soft and fragrant without getting stuck in her teeth, and had a hint of sweetness.
Gu Qingqing was so stimulated by the meaty aroma in her mouth that she wanted to speak, but she almost bit her tongue.
Erhua was not so lucky. As soon as the meat entered her mouth, she found it so delicious that she couldn't help but speak in a hurry. Then she let out an "ah" and bit her tongue.
"Mom, it hurts! Ouch." Erhua stretched out her broken tongue to show Gu Qingqing.
The wound was not big, but it was bleeding slightly. Gu Qingqing looked at Erhua with anticipation, and still leaned over and blew on her tongue from a distance twice.
"Okay." Gu Qingqing said.
As soon as she finished speaking, Erhua immediately retracted her tongue, said with a smile, "It doesn't hurt anymore", and then lowered her head and continued to eat meat.
Dahua was not much better. She quickly finished the meat and followed her mother's example, mixing the vegetables and sorghum rice in the bowl, and picking them up quickly with her chopsticks.
Wen Wuyan only had one mouthful of rice, and after eating, he licked the fragrance in his mouth tightly. After a long time, he said, "Before, I always thought that Old Yangtou's stewed meat was delicious. Now that I have eaten it, it is really praiseworthy."
Gu Qingqing finished her meal in no time and was drinking her soup. After hearing what Wen Wuyan said, she laughed triumphantly and deliberately teased him, "It's no use praising me. Each person only has this slice. Let me go to the town to have a look. If it can't be sold, we can bring it back and eat it ourselves. If it's all sold out, we can only wait until tomorrow."
When it comes to going to the town, Wen Wuyan looked at the mother and daughter with some concern, "You really don't want me to go with you?"
"It's past noon. Dahua and I can reach Taohua Town in half an hour's walk. Uncle Zhanghe and his men have not returned from cutting thatch with their carts. There is only one oxcart going to town a day. Uncle Niu is waiting for the villagers to come back. You can't let me support you and hop over on one leg, right?"
Gu Qingqing gently placed the bowl of meat into the new bamboo basket that Wen Wuyan had already repaired, looked up at him and said.
She was almost saying directly, "I can't carry you on my back."
Wen Wuyan knew this was true, but he was still choked.
"I will buy a big iron pot today, the same size used for cooking in that courtyard. You can talk to Uncle Zhang He and ask him to help us build a big stove when he is free." Gu Qingqing said before leaving.
Although Wen Wuyan understood the word "that hospital" she used, in the end he could only watch the mother and daughter walk away with his concerned eyes.
Gu Qingqing didn't walk fast along the way, not because her legs were not strong enough, but because she was worried that the little soup in the bamboo basket would overflow.
So it was already quarter past four (2pm) when she arrived in town.
Dahua Xue Niang was holding a stick she had picked up on the road. When she was about to reach the city gate, she asked curiously, "Mom, where are we going to sell the meat?"
