342:

"Hubert, don't forget. If you wait until she grows up so much that we can't do anything to her, you will definitely be the first one to suffer."

In a laboratory, an old man with a cane was standing outside the laboratory and struggling, and a hoarse and mechanical voice was heard inside.

But this sound has a strange familiarity.

Hubert did not speak, but was silent.

The voice came from the laboratory again. "Hubert, don't worry, what you have to do this time is very simple."

"You just need to lead her here. I will deal with the rest of the matter myself."

Hubert suddenly raised his eyes, red eyes, and looked at a place angrily.

"I said this. We have always had fair trades between us."

"If you fulfill your promise first, I will naturally lead her here."

"Hubert!!!" The mechanical sound suddenly rose, and the harsh sound penetrated the entire experimental base.

When the woman heard this sweet voice, she immediately laughed so hard that she couldn't stop smiling.

“Yes, there are…”

The woman handed a piece of mugwort cake to Gu Qiao.

"I saw you like to eat yesterday, so I made more today."

Gu Qiao took the pastry and said lightly: "Thank you."

The woman waved her hand. "Don't be so polite. If you like it, eat more. I'll make it for you another day."

Xicang Town is a town with simple folk customs. Everyone here is kind, honest, warm and hospitable, and treats people sincerely.

Although the town is not big, it is very lively, especially when it coincides with the Dragon Boat Festival...

The town has been bustling since half a month ago, and even if it rains, it did not stop the enthusiasm of the town people.

Shi Jiudu saw the little girl sitting on a stone bench and eating mugwort cake quietly, looking very well-behaved.

It seems that since Xicang Town, the little girl has become like a child.

"Aunt Lin, you are too partial. My sister has it, why don't I?" Qi Xianheng walked forward with the rice dumpling leaves in his hand and leaned into the basket with his head.

Aunt Yunlin laughed and lifted the cloth in the basket, and there was a plate of mugwort cake inside.

“Everything, all…”

Another woman came forward with a smile. "Sister-in-law Yunlin thinks your sister is pretty and she doesn't care about her."

Qi Xianheng: “…”

Well, my sister is indeed beautiful, and they also care about her; but my sister is so cold to them.

Aunt Yunlin looked at Gu Qiao with a smile on her face, looking very much at her own baby.

Shi Jiudu touched the girl's head in a funny way. To be honest, it seems that everyone in the town likes the girl very much.

Especially these women, even more...

The little girl turned a blind eye to the outside world and was seriously eating the mugwort cake in her hand piece by piece.

When the little girl finished the third piece, Aunt Yunliu quickly stepped forward to stop her.

"You can't eat more, you'll have to eat rice dumplings later."

"Come on, eat some hawthorn slices to eliminate food." Aunt Yunliu quickly brought out a plate of hawthorn slices under her basket and placed them in front of Gu Qiao.

Aunt Yunlin covered her mouth and laughed at her. "Miss Yunliu also said to me, you just made this hawthorn slice last night."

"I remember that no one in your family likes to eat this."

Aunt Yunliu didn't deny it and replied with a frank smile. "Didn't I see Xiao Qiao like to eat our snacks here? I'm worried that she will eat too much and will not be able to digest well?"

Aunt Yunliu lives at the entrance of the alley. She often sees Gu Qiao walking with the man who looks like a painting after dinner.

Moreover, it's all after meal time...

When her child was young, she often ate too much and had difficulty digesting it. So she used this hawthorn to make hawthorn slices for them to digest.

It just so happened that she remembered that her mother's sister-in-law had just gone to the mountain to pick hawthorns two days ago, and yesterday she went back to get some.

The hawthorn here is different from other places. Hawthorns are eaten here all year round, from spring to autumn.

The hawthorn is sour and sweet. Even if Gu Qiao doesn't feel it very clearly, he can still feel Aunt Yunliu's enthusiasm.

Gu Qiao curled the corners of his lips slightly, and his ethereal eyes bent to look at Aunt Yunliu. "Thank you."

The smile on Aunt Yunliu's face became more and more joyful, and even Aunt Yunlin next to her was envious.

"You like to eat. When you go back, I will use a bottle to pack it for you and take it away."

"We made this thing ourselves, there is no additives bought from outside; we can feel at ease when eating it."

"When you are fine, you can not only make your appetite, but also promote digestion..."

Mrs. Qi Er took some specialties from Kyoto and Yancheng from the house and took them out.

Distributed to several women in the yard.

"Thank you for your care during this period. These are our little thoughts. I hope you don't dislike me."

"Oh, they are all from the villagers, why are you doing this when you see each other like this?"

"That's right, Xiao Qiao is beautiful, we all like her."

"Sister Qi Er, you're just seeing each other now."

“That’s, that’s…”

"Come on, make rice dumplings and eat steamed rice dumplings later."

Everyone was making rice dumplings in the yard, and even the traditional ones had to join in the fun.

Shi Jiudu looked at Gu Qiao and asked, "Do you want to try it?"

Gu Qiao did not answer, but stood up and headed towards the big table.

When Aunt Yunliu and Aunt Yunlin saw Gu Qiao coming, they quickly asked her to come to their side and teach her step by step.

"So, look, like me, fold it into a triangle with two zongzi leaves."

"Yes, yes, so smart..."

"Then put these ingredients in and put whatever you like to eat."

"You can also put nothing, and then eat it with sugar when the time comes, it will be delicious."

"Oh, look, the rice dumplings made by Xiao Qiao are so beautiful."

The Qi family glanced at the rice dumplings in Gu Qiao's hand...

It's sure it's a zongzi, not a triangular cube.

"It looks good, Xiao Qiao's bag looks really good..."

"It's so good to look like the first time the bag is, Xiao Qiao, it's so amazing."

The women all gave thumbs up...

Gu Qiao looked at the rice dumplings in his hand and felt so disgusted...

But the women almost praised the rice dumplings in her hand.

It is conceivable how pleasant Gu Qiao is in their eyes, even though she is cold and cold, she doesn't like to talk much.

But why, she looks pretty.

Who doesn't like such a beautiful little girl?

Shi Jiudu looked at Gu Qiao's embarrassment and stepped forward to rescue her quickly.

"It's time for you to take medicine."

"Aunt, I'll take Xiao Qiao to take medicine..."

When the aunts heard that she wanted to take medicine, they stopped pulling her. "Go, the medicine is cold and the medicine is gone."

"By the way, I remembered that there was sugar in my pocket."

A woman took out a few candies from her pocket and put them in Gu Qiao's hand.

"After drinking the medicine and taking a candy, it won't be bitter."

"Yes, yes, you can also eat hawthorn slices..."

Shi Jiudu pinched the little girl's palm. "Say thank you to all aunts."

Gu Qiao nodded obediently to the aunts. "Thank you all, aunts."

Several women received a thank you, as if they had some treasure, and they were so excited.

"No thanks, no thanks..."
