Chapter 11 Feeding Snacks

"Niuniu, you are so lucky. I haven't found duck eggs in the reed swamp for a long time!" Gu Daya said with emotion.

Seeing that all her companions were very happy, Niu Niu also laughed. As an adopted child, her biggest fear was to be hated by the original children of the family.

"Milk! Milk! Look what we brought back!"

As soon as the children entered the Gu family's yard, they shouted happily.

Mrs. Gu was cleaning the chicken coop and was not very happy when she heard this voice: "Just stop causing me trouble. I don't expect you to bring anything good back!"

But when she saw the duck eggs in their hands, Mrs. Gu narrowed her eyes with a smile and said, "It's not like I hurt you in vain. I picked up good things and brought them back!"

The two sons of the big house who had just returned from going crazy outside looked guilty when they heard this. Whatever good things they got outside, they ate them secretly without thinking about home at all.

Mrs. Gu collected the wild duck eggs and said, "I'll help you collect the milk for now. We'll eat it in a few days!"

How could they not understand what Mrs. Gu meant, which was to save it until there were guests or when the farming was busy.

Hearing this, Gu Daya couldn't help complaining: "Grandma is so stingy. If I had known this, we would have eaten out and not brought it back!"

Mrs. Gu was very angry when she heard this. She was scrimping on food and clothing for no one but for this family!

Gu Mingda said: "Mom, let's fry a plate first tonight. My eldest brother and third brother are very tired from work recently. They need to eat something good to replenish their bodies. I don't know how long the duck eggs have been left in the wild. If they get damaged, I will Oh no."

Mrs. Gu always listened to Gu Mingda's words. Seeing his persistence, she could only say reluctantly: "A bunch of greedy people!"

Gu Mingda asked several more children: "Who found the wild duck eggs?"

Gu Daya pointed at Niuniu.

Mrs. Gu was the first to laugh and said: "The Zhang family also said that our Niuniu is a lucky star. She is obviously a lucky star! It has been so long since we found wild duck eggs in the reed swamp. I thought all the wild ducks had run away!"

After several children handed over the duck eggs, they swarmed to the backyard with reeds in their arms.

"Grandpa! Grandpa! Teach us how to weave baskets!"

They placed the reed in front of Father Gu.

Dad Gu accurately ignored the others and looked directly at Niu Niu: "Nanny..."

Gu Daya had long been used to her grandfather's confusion, so she corrected her: "Grandpa, this is Niu Niu, not Nannan!"

But Dad Gu still shouted out of habit: "Nanny..."

Gu Daya was speechless.

Niu Niu took two steps forward and said softly: "Grandpa, I am Niu Niu, and my name is Gu Xi."

After hearing this, Father Gu stopped calling her the same name. After staring at Niu Niu for a long time, he said helplessly: "Niu Niu, just Niu Niu, as long as you come back, don't leave me."

Listening to the old man's lonely tone, although the children present were young, they suddenly felt the urge to cry.

Dad Gu picked up the dry reeds again and said, "Niuniu asked me to weave baskets..."

He took it and started to weave it. Gu Yan gave some pointers and watched as they weaved it into the look they wanted.

While watching, several children also learned, but Father Gu seemed to move too fast and basically didn't remember it.

"Grandpa, slow down!" Niu Niu whispered.

Gu Daya said: "Niuniu, grandpa ignores people when he is working. It's useless to tell him." But the strange thing is that as Niuniu shouted, Dad Gu's movements actually slowed down.

After the two frames that met the requirements were compiled, a few children really learned it.

The others ran forward with their things, but Father Gu held Niuniu back. He touched her body for a long time and finally took out a handful of wild chestnuts.

"Niuniu eat, Niuniu is not in good health, so she needs to eat more good food." Dad Gu said vaguely.

Elders secretly give snacks to children. This is a treatment that only the most favored child in the family can get. Niu Niu never thought that a person with no blood relationship could be so favored by her grandfather.

"Go and play quickly, be careful when playing with Xiaocao and the others, don't break your head again!" Dad Gu warned.

Niuniu was confused after hearing this. She had no idea who Xiaocao was, so she entered the kitchen with this question.

"Grandma, who is Xiaocao? Grandpa asked me to be careful not to break my head when playing with her..." Niuniu asked in a low voice.

When Mrs. Gu heard this, she froze for a moment and then said, "That's your aunt's playmate, you don't have to worry about it."

Niu Niu nodded in understanding.

Before she could leave, Mrs. Gu caught her again and stuffed a boiled duck egg into Niu Niu's pocket.

"I'll give you the milk, don't tell anyone else, you know?" Mrs. Gu warned.

After receiving special attention from the two elders one after another, Niu Niu's little face went blank for a moment.

Looking at the little girl's adorable look, Mrs. Gu pinched the child's fleshless cheeks and said, "You found the wild duck eggs. This is your reward. I'm so pitiful. Why are you so thin? If you want to I’ll give you some advice!”

She just said that. After all, the current situation at home is that if the little girl is really given a lot of money to replenish her body, the big house and the third house will probably be in trouble.

Niuniu took a bag of food and entered the second room. Zhang Yunniang was still sewing clothes.

Niuniu silently delivered the food to her mother.

"Where did all these come from?" Zhang Yunniang asked amusedly.

"My grandparents secretly gave it to me, and I gave it to my mother to eat." Niu Niu smiled sweetly when she said this.

Zhang Yuniang thought of those brats in her family and secretly thought that her daughter was still considerate.

"If mother doesn't want to eat, you can eat it yourself." As a mother, she would not compete with her daughter for food.

Niu Niu then said: "The mother will share the food with the brothers. The brothers are boys and they need to eat better..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuniang put down the needle and thread in her hand and asked, "Who taught you these words?"

Niu Niu whispered: "It was Zhang's grandma who taught me. She said that when you have good things, you should not only think about yourself, but also think about your brothers at home."

Zhang Yunniang scolded her stepmother in her heart for teaching bad children, and warned: "The Gu family doesn't have these rules. Just forget all the things you learned in the Zhang family, okay?"

Niuniu nodded after hearing this, but her face was full of anxiety and she asked: "Did I do something wrong?"

The little girl just came to this house. Zhang Yuniang knew that her heart was not settled yet, so she held her in her arms and said, "You have done nothing wrong. Even if you do, you don't have to be so afraid. Dad and mom are your relatives. We I won’t blame you.”

Niuniu snuggled into Zhang Yunniang's arms, smelling the scent of soap locust powder on her adoptive mother's body, and felt extremely at ease.

Chen Chunhua's loud voice suddenly came from outside the house: "Dad, why did you bring these dying chickens back? We can't raise them in the chicken coop at home!"
