Chapter 51
Gu Huaijin, who was cleaning the fire bed, looked up and saw his wife coming in, and said quickly, "Get out quickly, it's all ashes here!"
His face was now dirty, there were spider webs on his head, and his clothes were even dirtier than before.
He looked at Xu Muzhen with her hair wrapped and her face clean. Now she had completely lost weight and she looked in better shape than when she first got married.
Although her skin was tanned a bit on the way to exile, her facial features are very good, her eyes are clean and clear, and she is very energetic!
I looked at myself again, I was so unkempt and disheveled.
Xu Muchian watched him sorting out the damaged parts on the kang, and he also cleaned them.
The dust in the house has also been roughly sorted.
Xu Muzhen looked at him and said, "Can we stay here at night? There may be some air leakage! And this kang, I wonder if it can be heated again!"
"It should be okay to just stay for one night. I'll go out to find someone to repair the necessary parts of the house tomorrow. It shouldn't take long."
Gu Huaijin got off the kang and looked at herself, walked a few steps forward and stood far away from Xu Muzhen, patting her clothes.
"Okay! Let's go eat quickly! It's getting cold!" Xu Muzhen looked at his movements and felt warm in her heart.
"Okay, let's go!" The two of them walked out one after the other. In the yard, two children, Gu Zhao and Wang Mingqing, had almost finished a bowl of rice.
They looked at the people coming out and ate the last bite of the bowl quickly.
Gu Zhao swallowed the food in his mouth, then licked his mouth and said cutely, "Mother, come and sit here!"
Wang Mingqing also came down from the stone board and imitated Gu Zhao and said, "Mother, sit here! It's clean here!"
Both of them patted the stone bench where they were sitting and motioned for Xu Muchian to come over.
Gu Huaijin, who was standing aside, felt heartbroken as to why none of the two children called him.
It's still clean, okay! His wife wants to sit clean.
As for myself, no one even calls me dirty! It feels so uncomfortable!
He also wants to be valued like his wife!
Forget it, he's not as smart as a child, so he'd better wash his face quickly.
When it's clean, won't they still call me?
Seeing Gu Huaijin go to wash up, Xu Muchian walked over and touched the heads of the two children, and said with a smile, "Are you full?"
"Yeah! I'm full, mother, look at my belly. Is it bulging?" Gu Zhao deliberately held out his belly for others to touch.
Xu Muchian found his actions extremely funny.
This kid is so cute!
Under Gu Zhao's expectant gaze, she lowered her waist and touched his round belly and said, "Oh, wow, my baby is really full."
After she touched it twice, she felt that his belly was so elastic, so she couldn't help but touch it a few more times.
Gu Zhao was ticklish and giggled when he was touched, and even ran to hide away.
Wang Mingqing watched Gu Zhao's movements and giggled along with him, and clapped his hands and said, "Brother is ticklish, brother is ticklish! Brother is ticklish!"
Xu Muqian looked at Wang Mingqing who was standing aside and clapping her hands and laughing. She smiled maliciously, "Brother is ticklish, so is our brother Ming ticklish?"
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his belly. The little guy was still so thin that he could feel the ribs on his waist.
"Wow! It's so ticklish, mother! It's ticklish!" Wang Mingqing shouted with a smile.
Gu Zhao stood aside and quickly shouted to Wang Mingqing, "Brother, run, brother, run!"
Upon hearing Gu Zhao's reminder, Wang Mingqing hurriedly ran towards him. The two children stood far away for fear of being tickled again.
At this moment, Gu Huaijin came from the backyard with Wang Yuqing.
"What makes us Zhao'er and Ming'er laugh so happily?" Gu Huaijin asked with a smile. He heard the two children laughing happily in the backyard, which made people feel good!
"Nothing, nothing!" Gu Zhao shook his head repeatedly, fearing that his father would imitate his mother and tickle him.
"These two children are ticklish!" Xu Muzhen said with a smile as she watched the two children hugging her belly with wary expressions.
"You two should come over and eat quickly, it's getting cold."
Looking at the child's actions and what his wife said, he understood what was going on.
The two of them sat down, and Xu Maqian gave each of them a bowl of pimple soup and said, "We haven't finished packing yet, so let's just eat something. When the house is repaired, I will cook a good meal for you."
"Okay! Let's wait for the lady's feast!" Gu Huaijin picked up the bowl and took a bite, then immediately raised his eyebrows and took another bite.
After eating several mouthfuls, he said, "Madam, this soup is delicious, it's so fragrant!"
"That's right! Eat more if you like it." Seeing that he liked it, Xu Maqian was also very happy.
She looked at Wang Yuqing who was sitting next to her and said, "Hurry up and try it to see if it tastes right!"
Wang Yuqing nodded, picked up the bowl and took a bite. With a rare expression on his face, he smiled slightly and said, "It tastes good!"
In fact, for Wang Yuqing, no matter what the Gu family feeds him now, he finds it delicious!
Because he relied on them to take care of him along the way so that he could bring his brother here safely.
Moreover, Brother Ming has been well taken care of by Mrs. Gu. He is now willing to talk and is much more lively.
From the bottom of his heart, he was very grateful to the Gu family.
Presumably, if the parents in heaven knew about it, they would also be happy for the younger brother!
After dinner, Xu Maqian took the bowl to Aunt Yang's house, while the two children and Wang Yuqing stayed at home.
They had already agreed during the meal that since the house had to be repaired and furnished in the past two days, there was really no way for anyone to live in it.
Wang Yuqing then suggested that their family temporarily live in the house next door.
There is also an empty room there, which is very convenient for their family of three.
Therefore, she and Gu Huaijin agreed after thinking about it for a while.
After all, the house here is indeed in ruins, with broken windows and no window paper, and a corner of the kang head has collapsed.
The house where the Wang brothers live next door is much better than here, so it's okay for them to stay there for a while.
