After dressing as a widow

Before Gu Shuanzi woke up, Lin Zhen lit the fire to cook. First, he cleaned the rice, boiled it, poured it in and boiled it until his fingers could touch a little rice heart, then drained the water, and poured it into the rice steamer. Re-steam.

While steaming the rice, I cracked five or six eggs I bought, added salt, water, and two drops of oil to make steamed eggs, and then fried cabbage with vinegar and pork ribs stewed with radish.

It gets dark early in winter, and the soybean-sized oil lamp can only illuminate a palm-sized area, and there is no light or shadow at all when viewed from the window.

The radishes and pork ribs on the stove were almost stewed. Lin Zhen stood up and walked into the room, wanting to see if Gu Shuanzi had any signs of waking up. Who knew that he woke up just as soon as he opened the door, but the Then he bumped into Gu Shuanzi who was chopping a hatchet.

What the hell! ! !

Lin Zhen had quick eyesight and quick hands, grabbed Gu Shuanzi's hand, pulled out the hatchet forcefully and threw it far away: "What are you doing, little bastard!"

Just a little bit, just a little bit away, the knife was about to fall on him!

He held Gu Shuan by the waist, and slapped his ass with two slaps, but as soon as the hand fell, he was caught by the bones under the thin clothes, and he couldn't help feeling distressed.

But Lin Zhen understands that the heartache is the heartache, but the question of principle cannot be lifted high and put down gently.

He gave Gu Shuanzi two slaps again, lifted him to the chair next to the stove, squatted down and looked at Gu Shuanzi, and said, "I know you must have suffered a lot at Zhou Tao's house and suffered a lot of grievances, but Gu Shuanzi, you can't put yourself in because of some rotten people."

"Do you know what would happen if you cut me with the knife just now?"

"You will violate the law and become a prisoner who intentionally hurts others. People from the government will arrest you, and maybe you will not be severely punished, because you are a child and you are not sensible yet."

"But the fact that you wounded people with a knife will spread in many places. People will no longer remember you as Gu Shuanzi, but only remember the bad things you did. This imprint will follow you forever."

"And tell yourself, what reason do you have to cut me with a knife? Are you venting your dissatisfaction and resentment at will?"

Lin Zhen knew that Gu Shuanzi was a little crooked.

He not only resented Zhou Tao and Ma Shi, but also resented everything around him, and he was extremely aggressive.If he is not disciplined in time, there is a high probability that he will become a villain in novels and TV in the future.

Gu Shuanzi raised his eyes to look at him from a low place, and rushed towards him fiercely.

To be honest, Lin Zhenxin's heart skipped a beat when he saw it.

He simply covered the boy's head, rubbed rua hard, and put a large spoonful of egg custard in front of him: "Eat dinner, I will take you to Zhou Tao's house in two days, I want to ask Ask the couple how they took you away from me, how did it happen."

There is nothing to say about his cooking skills. The simple egg custard is also steamed differently from other people's. The tender yellow eggs, finely chopped green onions, and the unique aroma of eggs are irresistible in the steaming heat.

Listening to his last words, Gu Shuanzi slowly picked up the spoon with his chilblained hand, and fed it into his mouth one after another...

After a meal, there was only a small half of the tung oil in the oil dish, and the wick of the lamp was also burned to the ground. He bent his waist like an old man who was dying.

Lin Zhen cut off the wick, and said to Gu Shuanzi, "You stay at home, I'll go to Aunt Lan in the village and ask if there are any extra clothes for children, and I'll bring you one."

Looking at Gu Shuanzi who was sitting on the chair without speaking, he thought for a while and said, "I won't close the door when I go out."

As soon as Gu Shuanzi heard the word close the door, his whole body trembled, and the fingers resting on his knees nervously buttoned his trousers, almost wanting to buckle the flesh underneath.

In Zhou's house, he has seen the appearance and sound of the door being closed many times. For him, it is like being tied hands and feet alone in that room, maybe one meal a day, maybe three to five days. There was a meal, maybe there was nothing, just being slapped in the face and kicked after opening the door...

"Squeak—" The door closed, but there was no sound of locking, Ma Shi's cursing, and Zhou Tao's soft opening and unlocking.

Not to mention the harsh chattering of their three children.

Gu Shuanzi loosened his hand slowly.

Lin Zhen, who didn't know that Gu Shuanzi could even close the door, went to Mrs. Lan's house with the snow shadow. Seeing a little light from the window of Mrs. Lan's house, she hurried up and shouted, "Is Mrs. Lan at home? I'm Mrs. Gu." Lin Zhen, I came to see you for something."

Aunt Lan, who was about to turn on the lamp to sleep, thought she was hallucinating when she heard Lin Zhen's voice. After all, since Lin Zhen left Datianzi Village, she hadn't seen anyone for a whole year.

She opened the door and looked at Lin Zhen outside the fence: "You are really a real brother, come in quickly."

"Don't bother Aunt Lan, I'm just here to ask if you have any extra children's clothes, I'll buy two."

"Children's clothes?" Aunt Lan immediately remembered the rumors in the village that Gu Shuanzi came back to visit his father's grave, but the Gu family has money, so it is impossible to lack these two sets of clothes, right?

Aunt Lan kept her words in her heart and didn't say it, "There are two bodies, but it's too old."

"It's all right, the old clothes are still soft." At night, when Lin Zhen walked over, he found that most of the people were asleep. If Mrs. Lan didn't have them here, he might have to go back home and wait until tomorrow morning.

But tomorrow morning he still plans to take Gu Shuanzi to the town to buy some joss sticks and paper money for Gu Da's grave.

Aunt Lan heard what he said, nodded and told Lin Zhen to wait, and found out the clothes of her youngest son who had been shelved for several years and handed them to Lin Zhen: "I originally planned to dismantle them to make two sets of clothes for my grandson, but the child will My husband’s family likes children very much, so I specially sent several of them over, and put them here as soon as they are released.”

"The cotton inside is good, but the cloth is a little damaged and not very strong."

The clothes made by farmers are almost all coarse cloth, and the earthy yellow color looks very dirty and old.

Lin Zhen hugged the clothes and said to Aunt Lan, "Very good." He took out fifteen copper coins, stuffed them into Aunt Lan's hand, and strode out, saying, "Thank you, Aunt Lan, I'll go back first. "

When Aunt Lan saw the copper coins in her hand, she was stunned and hurriedly called Lin Zhen.

But Lin is really like a rabbit, he has long been hopping and disappearing.

Holding the copper coins, Aunt Lan had no choice but to go back to the house.

She couldn't help but think that this brother Lin Zhen actually looks like a monster and doesn't look like a serious person, but he actually has a reputation in his heart.

Going back with the clothes, Lin Zhen thought that the weak Gu Shuanzi should go to bed, but unexpectedly he was still sitting on the chair in front of the fire pit, his posture was exactly the same as when he went out.

He put the clothes aside, looked at the water he mixed in the pot when he went out, and took a basin to ladle the water to wash his face: "That's the clothes I found for you at Landa's mother's house, you can change into them tomorrow and go to town with me." Buy paper money for incense sticks."

Gu Shuanzi knew that these joss sticks and paper money were indispensable for going to the grave.

He looked at Lin Zhen, and said the first words after meeting Lin Zhen: "You don't have to worry about me, my father is dead, I'm not your son."

"..."

The warm veil was removed from his face, Lin Zhen blinked and looked back at him: "Your father is married to me, and you are my stepson, this is a fact."

"Although I can leave you alone, but here," Lin Zhen pointed to his chest, "it will be uncomfortable."

"Tch," Gu Shuanzi sneered indifferently and desolately, "I didn't know you were such a good person before."

"Don't, I can't get enough of the words "bad and good". At most, I can't see some things."

"Gu Shuanzi, I'm not your real father, so I definitely can't treat you like your real father."

"When you are able to be a director, start a family and start a business, you'd better go back here and live on your own."

Zhou Tao and Mrs. Ma must not be able to stay there anymore, and looking at Gu Shuanzi's embarrassed appearance, they must have withheld the bank notes and household registration for depositing money. Naturally, Lin Zhen will take Gu Shuanzi to settle this matter. solved.

As for where Gu Shuanzi was going after the settlement, Lin Zhenxin had a vague idea in his head.

He thinks that Gu Shuanzi should be sent to school to learn to read and write, so that he can become a great writer without studying, at least to correct those extreme thoughts in his mind.

He really didn't want to have an extra villain stepson in the future, thinking about it made his head hurt.

As for whether Gu Shuanzi would live with him or not, he had to ask Gu Shuanzi what he meant.

Anyway, children in ancient times were precocious, and they could marry a wife at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and it didn't delay me much.

The two father and son slept in the left wing room and the right wing room, and they barely opened their eyes until the cock crowed for the second time.

Just like what I said last night, the two packed up and went to the village head's house to borrow an ox cart, then went to the town to buy paper money for incense candles, and stopped by the medical clinic to tell the shopkeeper that the money for the medicine would be delayed because of family matters. It is estimated that it will be delayed for two days.

Even though the shopkeeper likes Lin Zhen Malatang, and doesn't like being owed his money, Lin Zhen said that if he can't get the money after two days, he will give the prescription of Malatang to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper agrees.

Coming back from the town in a hurry, Lin Zhen carried a sickle and paper money for joss sticks, and half-carried Gu Shuanzi to the half-hillside where Gu Da was buried.

Because he had only passed away a year ago, his tomb was still very new, the tombstone had not been exposed to wind and rain, and the moss had grown little.

Lin Zhen put Gu Shuanzi on the ground, took the basket containing incense sticks and paper money to the tombstone, and said to Gu Shuanzi, "I'll go and clear the weeds beside the grave, and you burn the paper money for your father."

"Yeah." Gu Shuanzi nodded, looked at the back of him bending over to clean the weeds, turned around after a long time, and knelt down in front of the tombstone.

First light the candle, then light a handful of green incense, and slowly insert the three into a pillar from this end.

"father……"

This year, Gu Shuanzi only called Gu Da when he couldn't bear it anymore.

He wants to be big.

And some resentment.
