Chapter 139 The male protagonist’s best mother-in-law (twenty-six)
Gu Qingcheng only knew the outline of the story, but did not know the entire plot.
Buying a house next door to the heroine's house can really only be described as "fate".
Originally, Gu Qingcheng was not as good as the original protagonist and did not really trick the male protagonist, causing the male protagonist to miss the opportunity to get to know the "noble man".
The male protagonist and the female protagonist cannot become "childhood sweethearts", and their fate seems to be severed.
However, Gu Qingcheng bought a house in the county. His destiny took a turn at a certain point, and then seemed to be back on track.
Huoshui couldn't help but cover his mouth: "Haha, what is this? A mistake? Or shooting yourself in the foot?"
Don't blame the misfortune and take pleasure in the misfortune.
It followed Gu Qingcheng on several missions and got to know her a little bit.
Gu Qingcheng is the proudest person in his heart.
She seems to be very resistant to getting involved with the male protagonist or the female protagonist.
Even if he is dressed as cannon fodder or a female supporting role, Gu Qingcheng will not hug the protagonist's lap, but will make himself the "big heroine"!
The first and second stories were not very obvious yet, but by the time of the third story, Gu Qingcheng was like a wild horse that had escaped the reins and was out of control.
The system probably saw Gu Qingcheng's ambition and strong ability, and then "randomly" matched her with the best task.
However, Gu Qingcheng is still very good, and can still promote and change the plot without destroying the character!
It's a pity that she doesn't know that the fate between the heroine and the hero is destined by God.
Even if they go around in a circle, they can meet each other!
Gu Qingcheng didn't know what Huoshui was thinking, but as keen as she was, she had noticed that when she interacted with her neighbors on the east side, Huoshui's energy fluctuated somewhat frequently.
Are Mr. Zheng’s family very important characters in the original story?
Gu Qingcheng secretly kept this guess in mind.
She calmly continued to maintain her weak and simple dodder character, and started living in the county town according to her established goals.
"Auntie, the water is here!"
Zhao Daya was a diligent and smart girl. He helped his aunt get out of the car and asked her to rest in the east bedroom, and then she started to get busy.
Pack your luggage, arrange your bedding, clean the stove, and boil pots and water.
In less than an hour and a half, Zhao Daya came over with a basin of warm water.
“Da Ya is so diligent!”
Gu Qingcheng smiled softly, and under Zhao Daya's service, she washed away the dust and put on clean clothes.
Gu Qingcheng's straightforward compliment made Zhao Daya a little embarrassed.
She pursed her lips shyly and said nothing, but became even more diligent when working.
Seeing Gu Qingcheng change out of his dusty clothes, Zhao Daya took the clothes away without giving any instructions.
Gu Qingcheng is a very outstanding person, and his grasp of people's hearts has already reached the level of perfection.
She knows that winning people's hearts is not only a material reward, but also a spiritual recognition.
A casual compliment can make a little girl happy and work harder, so why not?
Giving the new person a name can also increase her sense of belonging to this "home".
For example, the first thing a new maid or servant does when she comes in is for her master to change her name.
"Da Ya, aunt, please give you a name."
Seeing Zhao Daya busy working, Gu Qingcheng said with a smile.
Zhao Daya suddenly raised his head, his eyes lit up, "Really? Aunt, I, I can also have a name?"
Women these days, those from wealthy families are better off. They can be given names, and even have their own characters after the hairpins.
But the vast majority of poor people just yell randomly when they give birth to a girl.
Some shouted according to the ranking, "Da Ya Er Ya", "Da Niu Er Niu".
Some are more "purposeful", looking forward to seeing you again.
The Zhao family is not very patriarchal, but they don't give their daughters a special name either.
Therefore, as the first girl in the family, Zhao Daya likes to be called "Daya".
But looking at the entire Zhaojiazhuang, there are several Guangda Ya.
Zhao Daya was getting older and had been serving Gu Qingcheng for several months. She knew how good the boss was and had a certain sense of honor and disgrace.
She somewhat dislikes the name Daya and wants a nice name that is unique to her!
Originally, Zhao Daya thought that she would work hard and make her aunt happy, so she asked her to give her a name.
In the eyes of Zhuangzi people, my aunt is a sickly, soft-eared and confused woman.
But in Zhao Daya's opinion, her aunt is very powerful. She is so beautiful and can actually read.
In this imaginary dynasty where people are everywhere illiterate, those who can write their own names can already be regarded as "literate people"!
My aunt is a cultural person!
Not to mention, there is a cousin at home who can read.
Zhao Daya had already thought about it. If her aunt didn't know how to give a name, she could ask her cousin for help!
In a year or two, she will get married. She wants to proudly introduce to her husband's family "My name is Zhao XXX" instead of being a big girl.
"sure!"
When Gu Qingcheng saw the surprise on Zhao Daya's face, he knew that he had hit Zhao Daya's itch.
She looked Zhao Daya up and down, pondered for a moment, and said, "You are the first girl in the Zhao family and the eldest sister in the family. Let's call her Yuan Yi."
Yuan Yi?
What is it?
Zhao Daya didn't know it at all, couldn't write it, let alone what the meaning of these two words was.
However, when she heard Gu Qingcheng gently utter these two words, she felt that they sounded good, very, very noble!
"Yuan Yi? Zhao Yuanyi?"
Zhao Daya chewed slowly, her tanned little face full of joy.
"Thank you, aunt! I, my name will be Yuan Yi from now on!"
They are both the eldest sister in the family, but Yuan Yi sounds a thousand times better than Da Ya!
Zhao Daya was so excited that she wanted to announce loudly to everyone: "My name is Zhao Yuanyi! I am the eldest daughter of the Zhao family!"
"Yuan Yi, is the kitchen ready? Go make some pastries. I'm a little hungry!"
As soon as the conversation changed, Gu Qingcheng started making demands.
Zhao Daya, oh no, it was Zhao Yuanyi who was not irritated or resisted by others.
She became more active.
However, Zhao Yuanyi rubbed her hands in embarrassment: "Aunt, I, I don't know how to make pastries."
Zhaojiazhuang is an ordinary rural village, and the people in the Zhao family's old home are just ordinary farmers.
As a girl, I learned to make fire and cook from an early age.
But Zhao Yuanyi only knows how to make steamed buns and steam vegetable cakes, and she doesn't know how to do more delicate work at all!
Oh, it's not impossible.
In the past few months since he came to serve Gu Qingcheng, Gu Qingcheng, who is picky and fastidious, has guided Zhao Yuanyi and other little girls to learn some more elaborate meals without leaving a trace.
However, for the sake of character and not to arouse suspicion, Gu Qingcheng did not dare to do too much.
The "improvements" she can make are also very subtle.
Even so, Zhao Yuanyi and other girls also learned a lot about delicious food.
This is one of the reasons why Zhao Yuanyi wants to follow Gu Qingcheng - she can learn more or less how to cook by following her aunt.
Gu Qingcheng met Mrs. Cui and now moved to the county again.
She felt that it was time to improve her quality of life.
"I don't know how to make it! But I ate a snack at Sister Cui's house last time. It was small, sweet, and glutinous, and it was particularly delicious!"
Gu Qingcheng showed a child-like greedy look and said to Zhao Yuanyi while recalling, "It's a steamed cake made of glutinous rice, red dates and red beans."
"...How about I try?"
Seeing Gu Qingcheng talking lively, Zhao Yuanyi was very excited.
She simply supported Gu Qingcheng, and the two of them came to the newly tidied kitchen.
Zhao Qingyun is young but thoughtful. When moving, he prepared all the food, meat, eggs, seasonings, etc.
The wall of the kitchen is lined with a row of large and small vats, containing rice, noodles, beans and other grains.
There are also brown sugar, dates, etc. which are relatively expensive these days. Zhao Qingyun also bought some.
Zhao Yuanyi saw these things when she was cleaning the kitchen just now.
She was secretly stunned: My aunt's family is really rich!
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yuanyi was extremely happy: Fortunately, I was smart and took the initiative to take care of my aunt.
Not to mention learning skills and gaining experience, even the food at her aunt's house can be regarded as the best thing she has ever eaten in her life.
She increasingly felt that coming to her aunt's house was the smartest choice she had ever made in her life.
When taking care of Gu Qingcheng, Zhao Yuanyi was extremely caring.
Knowing that my aunt is sick and weak, she can't stand the smoke and fire in the kitchen, let alone working.
Zhao Yuanyi moved a chair and placed it at the door of the kitchen, asking Gu Qingcheng to sit down.
I put on my apron and started busy in front of the stove.
"I asked the cook at Sister Cui's house, and she said that she needs to steam the red beans first, and then..."
Gu Qingcheng said half truthfully.
Zhao Yuanyi followed the steps to take care of Qingcheng step by step.
Half an hour later, the steamer steamed, and a strong aroma of dates began to float in the kitchen.
Lifting the lid, the crystal clear steamed cakes dotted with bits of red were revealed.
Zhao Yuanyi first served a plate to Gu Qingcheng, and then gave a large plate to Zhao Qingyun, Zhao Qingsong and Goudaner's cousins.
The steamed glutinous rice cake fresh out of the pan is sweet, soft and glutinous, and very delicious.
Gu Qingcheng ate in small bites, feeling very satisfied inside.
Zhao Yuanyi: ...Auntie is so pretty, even when she eats, she looks so pretty!
Zhao Yuanyi has never read a book, so she cannot speak idioms about pleasing to the eye, beautiful and delicious.
She only praised Gu Qingcheng for looking good, so good-looking, so good-looking...
"Yuan Yi, you can eat it while it's hot! This steamed cake won't taste good if it's cold!"
Gu Qingcheng greeted Zhao Yuanyi with a smile.
"Okay, aunt!"
Zhao Yuanyi obediently ate a piece. It was so sweet and glutinous, and even if you pulled it gently, it could become stringy.
Zhao Yuanyi's eyebrows were full of contented happiness.
"By the way, send some to our neighbors on both sides! We just came here and want to say hello to the neighbors!" By the way, let's find out who the two neighbors are!
Gu Qingcheng stopped after eating two pieces.
She is a very restrained person and will not let external things influence her will.
"good!"
