She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys

Chapter 187 3 Jin of Rice, 2 Steamed Buns

Gu Qingqing paused here, then continued jokingly, "If he has someone in his heart, then that's it. But you have to tell him so that you as parents know and agree. You can't just waste your time like this. Or maybe he doesn't plan to look for someone anymore. Does he really treat Xiaoyang and Xiaoguang as his own children every day?"

"It's natural for an uncle to love his nephew. He would like, would like... no, Qingqing!" Niu Li was halfway through her words when she suddenly thought of something. She looked up and excitedly grabbed Gu Qingqing's hand.

Gu Qingqing was startled by her sudden action, and she looked like she thought she had said something wrong, so she quickly explained, "Aunt, did I say something wrong? I just felt that Yuzhu was not young anymore, I didn't mean anything else."

"Hahaha, no no, you're not wrong. Instead, you reminded me!" Niu Li said as she got off the kang and paced around the room.

At this moment, Niu Li no longer had the decadent energy he had just had. He looked more energetic than before, and in Gu Qingqing's eyes, he began to shine.

Gu Qingqing didn't rush to ask her what she reminded her of. After about half a minute, she saw that Niu Li seemed to have made up her mind. She pretended to be ignorant and slowly said, "Aunt, you just said that I reminded you. What did I remind you of?"

Niu Li rushed to Gu Qingqing, took her hand gratefully and said, "Qingqing, let me tell you something. If this is successful, I will bring a pig's head to your house to thank you."

"Oh, Aunt, please stop teasing me. If I can help, I'm happy to help. I don't want any pig's head meat."

"This matter is not up to you. If it really succeeds, just wait! Qingqing, you are smart. Let me talk to you and see if this matter can be accomplished. However, if this matter can be accomplished, it would be the best. If not, let's just pretend that we never talked about it today." Niu Li warned.

"Okay. Please don't worry, Auntie."

Then, Niu Li excitedly told her that she had previously wanted Meihua to be her daughter-in-law.

Gu Qingqing was still a little shocked. It turned out that her aunt had already had such an idea. She said that she was "well-informed", which made her never think that the ancients mentioned by these modern people were very open-minded!

Niu Li didn't point it out herself, fearing that she and Meihua would become estranged.

"You can get along well with Meihua, how about you try to help your aunt?" Niu Li looked at Gu Qingqing with pleading eyes.

Gu Qingqing naturally wanted to see Meihua live a good life, and also hoped that the Niu family would be well. With the intention of watching the show, she nodded without thinking, "Don't worry, aunt, I will talk to Meihua another day. By the way, don't you need to ask uncle's opinion on this matter first? And what about Yuzhu?"

Niu Li was so happy that she waved her hands after hearing her question. "You don't need to ask Yuzhu. I know the answer. As for your uncle, I know him. If he knows, he will be happier than me."

Gu Qingqing thought about it and still insisted, "Aunt, I won't tell Meihua today. If I have to, it will be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. For such a big thing, you should talk to uncle tonight and listen to his opinion. If there is any change, please tell me. If there is no change, I will find a chance to talk to Meihua."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll talk to Lao Niu tonight. Fortunately, you came to comfort me today, otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do." Niu Li's smiling face returned to its former spirit.

Seeing that their family affairs had come to an end, Gu Qingqing began to explain the purpose of her visit, "Aunt, I came here today for something."

"Hahaha, that's what I was saying. Why are you out in such a cold weather? What's wrong?"

"It's like this, my brother on my mother's side has a new baby, and I want to go back to see him, but I don't know what to bring back or what I need to pay attention to."

"Xiao Cao gave birth? Boy or girl? When did you announce the good news?"

"Boy, Zhuangzhuang came today. Because Wuyan and I went to town and didn't meet each other, he sent some red eggs to our house. Dahua received them. Auntie, wait a minute, I'll call Meihua in. She's freezing somewhere right now. You have to control your emotions." Gu Qingqing suddenly said.

"Oh, hurry up, come in, come in, don't freeze to death."

Luo Meihua had been hiding in the kitchen. She only went back when she heard Gu Qingqing calling her.

Then, Gu Qingqing told Xiaocao about the birth of her child, and Luo Meihua was happy for her.

"I have never taken care of this before. When I had a few children, my mother was not in charge at home, and the things she brought every time were tight. In addition, I was also in charge of things here, and my life was also confused, so I don't understand it now. I think now I am the master of the house, and I don't want to be like before, so I came to ask what should you bring?"

Niu Li finally knew who Wen Chen was. Gu Qingqing's words inevitably made her feel distressed. She could only pat her hands and say, "What's past is past. Let's not talk about it. Now that Xiaocao is born, they are close to you. When your family built the house, your brother also came to help. As a sister, you should be more generous, and no one can find fault with you. Our rules here are to announce the good news on the third day for a boy and the fifth day for a girl. Your brother from your mother's side came today to explain that today is the third day, so you can't go tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow."

Gu Qingqing nodded repeatedly, "Is there anything taboo about bringing things?"

"Sister-in-law, there are not too many taboos. A normal household in the village only has three kilograms of rice and twenty steamed buns. What kind of rice and what kind of flour the steamed buns are depends on the family's financial situation. If the conditions are good, white rice and white flour are the most presentable. If the conditions are average, white rice and coarse flour steamed buns, or corn and white flour steamed buns. If the conditions are not good, brown rice and brown flour can be used." Luo Meihua echoed from the side.

"Okay, three pounds of rice and twenty steamed buns. I got it." Gu Qingqing thought about it and it was quite simple.

As a result, she even looked at her with a smile, "Sister-in-law, do you understand? Then what do you think is the point of making steamed buns here?"

Gu Qingqing was stunned by the question. What else could be said about steamed buns?

But seeing Luo Meihua asking this, I thought there must be a reason for coming here.

She was wondering madly whether the original owner had mentioned similar topics when she was in confinement after giving birth.

It turned out not to be.

Some people only knew that the original owner's mother brought steamed buns, but she had no idea whether there were twenty or not, because after her mother left, the original owner obediently handed over the steamed buns and brown rice.

Gu Qingqing was puzzled and asked, "Isn't it just twenty steamed buns?"

Her ignorant answer caused Niu Li and Luo Meihua to chuckle.
