Chapter 148: 109 Little Sun Sun (Two more combined into one)
When Gu Jiao returned home, Gu Yan had already woken up and was sitting in the hall eating syrup egg with the old lady.
Upon seeing Gu Jiao entering the room, the old lady quickly shoved the syrup egg towards Gu Yan, declaring righteously, “I’ve said before that I won’t eat! But you keep insisting on feeding me!”
Gu Yan, “…”
Who was the one who took half of his syrup egg?
The syrup egg was made by Xue Ningxiang. The old lady didn’t show her face and instead urged Gu Yan to ask for it. Xue Ningxiang was completely unable to resist Gu Yan’s charms and without a second word, she cooked a large bowl. Little Monk and Gu Xiaoshun each got a small bowl too.
Gu Xiaoshun ate quickly and had already returned to his room to work on his wood carvings. Little Monk was still practicing his skills on a tree trunk and had not started eating yet.
Gu Jiao decisively confiscated the old lady’s syrup egg.
The old lady, who had already eaten a bowl and a half, wiped her mouth and returned to her room.
As long as I eat quickly enough, Jiaojiao can’t catch me!
Gu Jiao gave the three gifts sent by the man to her three younger brothers. As soon as the items were laid out, without her asking, the three accurately found the items they liked.
Little Monk picked up the shiny Huarong Road, enthralled!
Gu Yan chose a jade thumb ring made from thousand-year-old cold jade, which was of a better quality than the previous one.
Gu Xiaoshun got a dagger that could cut through iron like mud. The dagger was smaller than ordinary ones, convenient to carry and could serve as an excellent carving knife.
All three were very happy!
Xue Ningxiang was helping Gu Jiao tidy up the backyard.
Xue Ningxiang often came over to help. In return, Gu Jiao would help Xue Ningxiang with farming, and the old lady would occasionally help look after Xue Ningxiang’s child.
Primarily because Doggy was a boy of few words, give him a piece of preserved fruit and he could lick it all morning. The old lady found it particularly peaceful and naturally felt Doggy was easy to take care of.
As for Little Monk –
“Great-aunt! You’re sneaking candies again! Jiaojiao! Great-aunt is sneaking candies again! She’s already eaten five today!”
Gu Jiao replied, “Oh, the handwriting in this letter is different, it looks like Uncle Doggy wrote it himself.” freewēbnoveℓ.com
