In the end, Lao Gutou had to attribute the reason to the fact that he was old and his eyes could no longer keep up. But he would never say it out loud. After all, in his perception, he was a capable old man.
What if Changsheng knows that he no longer respects his grandfather? Of course, this may be small, but Lao Gutou doesn't want others to think of him, probably because of his pride.
However, in short, the two of them gained a lot from going up the mountain this time. Even when they got back and were scolded by Gu Xiaomei for being covered in mud, the two of them did not feel lost. Instead, they excitedly asked Gu Xiaomei to see what they had gained. Especially for longevity, this is still
It was the first time she had caught a prey entirely by her own efforts. She was so excited that she pulled Gu Xiaomei to show her the pheasant she had caught. Of course, the pheasant was just tied up with her help, but that was it.
It couldn't diminish her inner excitement.
"Look, this is the prey I tied up. It didn't give up and pecked me before. Although it hurt a little, I strangled it and knocked it out. Grandma Gu, am I very capable?"
"Hey, did Changsheng tie up such a big pheasant himself? Changsheng is really capable! I think he is much better than your grandfather."
Lao Gutou didn't want to pay attention to the old man and the young man. It was just a pheasant. Did his little sister ignore the large number of prey behind? What's more, these were caught in traps made by herself. Why were they all caught?
Is it the credit of Changsheng alone? He doesn't accept this. However, Lao Gutou knows that the little girl won't listen to anything he says now. Who makes her have someone she likes more now? Speaking of which, Changsheng
How did this ugly girl win the favor of his little sister and make her like her so much? Lao Gutou thought this might be an unsolved mystery.
But these are not important. What is important is the hairpin that I found on the mountain before. My little sister happened to be there now, so Lao Gutou took out the hairpin with excitement and showed it to little sister Gu.
Gu Xiaomei is not young, and she often did some embroidery work when she was young, so her eyesight is not very good. She didn't see clearly what it was at the moment, but she was surprised by her second brother's excitement. But when she thought about it carefully,
My second brother is not the kind of person who gets excited easily, so he got closer and took a closer look. Changsheng was not interested in this, so he stared at Grandma Gu. As a result, he saw a subtle twitch of the muscles in the corner of Grandma Gu's eyes.
2, but she soon calmed down. She felt a little strange, but she didn't say anything and just observed quietly.
At this time, Lao Gutou looked at his little sister with excitement, hoping to hear the answer he wanted from her.
"Isn't this the gift you gave to that person? I still remember that second brother, you fished it out when you were catching fish in the river more than ten miles away from our village. At that time, you thought it was a branch. Take it
I came back and cleaned it carefully, only to find that it was actually a rough silver bar. I still remember that it took you a long time to polish it until it vaguely resembled a hairpin, and I thought it was ugly. Fortunately, she didn't dislike it. Later, this happened
Didn't you find the thing? Why did you suddenly find it now?"
"By the way, I know you still remember it. This is the original hairpin. I thought I couldn't find it a long time ago, but I didn't expect that Chang Sheng accidentally saw it when I went up the mountain today. What a coincidence, tell me.
Things that have been lost for decades, and have turned black, still have a little silvery part, and it was so lucky that Changsheng saw it, what a coincidence."
Lao Gutou has been completely immersed in the memories of the past, and it seems that he will not wake up for a while. This is the first time Chang Sheng has seen Lao Gutou like this, and he is a little surprised, but Gu Xiaomei is used to it, and now it is even more habitual.
Call Changsheng over, and the two of them plan together how to deal with and place these prey.
"Grandma Gu, grandpa said he caught these prey to replenish your health."
Gu Xiaomei paused and felt a little emotional. Over the years, it seems that the second brother is the only one who cares about her body all the time. In fact, why is she so fragile? She has long been used to the hidden injuries she suffered in the early years.
.
And with so much food, how can I eat it all?
"Your grandpa was just joking. How could he have eaten them all? Let's kill the seriously injured ones and sell the rest in the town. When is eating something other than eating?"
Changsheng didn't know how to answer, because what Grandma Gu said seemed to make sense. At this time, she suddenly remembered the kind old woman she met on the road before. She seemed to have said that she was looking for something, and the description was the same as the one in her grandfather's hand.
This hairpin looks a bit like it.
So she spoke gently to Grandma Gu.
"The grandma I saw sitting on the ground before on the road said she was looking for a long, shiny and beautiful thing, a bit like the one in my grandpa's hand..."
"Crack."
The prey in Gu Xiaomei's hand fell with a clatter. When Changsheng raised his head to look, he found a slight panic in Grandma Gu's eyes, and was a little surprised. What's wrong with Grandma?
But then, Lao Gutou strode over, picked up Changsheng, and spoke in disbelief.
"Tell me, what do you think she is looking for?"
Lao Gutou's face looked a little scary. Changsheng swallowed, but still forced himself to speak.
"Yes, it's just a shiny, beautiful thing. I don't know what it is..."
Putting Changsheng down, Lao Gutou's eyes were very complicated. Changsheng, who was still young, couldn't quite understand it. He just felt that grandpa was not in a good mood at the moment. Why?
Gu Xiaomei didn't dare to disturb Lao Gutou, who was lost in memories, so she had to take Changsheng aside and comfort her in a low voice.
"Don't worry, he will be fine after a while."
"Grandpa, what happened to him?"
Changsheng was a little worried, but Gu Xiaomei didn't tell her. She just kept stroking Changsheng's head with her big rough hands and smoothing out her messy hair.
"Oh, this is a matter for adults. You will know when you grow up."
Changsheng didn't understand very well, but she was too sensible and didn't ask any more questions. But from that day on, Lao Gutou was not in a very good mood. The specific manifestation was that he didn't like to talk very much. Especially since Gu Xiaomei was also invited back by her children and grandchildren.
Changsheng and Lao Gu were the only two people left in this remote courtyard.
Although Lao Gutou was not in the mood for psychological immortality, she was very conscious and whenever it was time to squat, she followed Lao Gutou's instructions meticulously.
At the beginning, she could only hold on for half an hour, and at the cost of almost fainting. However, concentration may be one of Changsheng's advantages. Of course, it may also be because Changsheng doesn't know how normal people practice martial arts, so
