His wife was angry,
What else was there to eat. As soon as the Ai Cao left. Gu Dong kicked Fu Jiu under the table.
"No,
Dongzi.
Listen to me,
It's not my fault, it's really not my fault,
I didn't know sister-in-law was coming,
And you said you were envious! "Fu Jiu explained with a smile on his face as he gestured with his hands.
"Hurry up and eat,
Eat and get out! "Gu Dong's mouth was thorny, but he handed over a pair of chopsticks.
Since ten o'clock in the morning,
It was already past four o'clock. This time, Fu Jiu only wanted a silly little black rabbit. After working so hard for so long,
He must have chased him out without giving him anything to eat.
However, it was a fight between men. They were all brothers, so no one would take it to heart. When he was almost done eating,
Gu Dong directly chased him out.
The longer it took, the more uneasy Gu Dong felt. He hurriedly went to find the Ai Cao,
If it really didn't work,
He would apologize and say a few soft words.
But seriously,
When they were chatting just now,
He really didn't say anything disloyal,
And he didn't think that the Duan Xue was better than the Ai Cao.
Although..,
His wife did look a little ugly before, after so long, although he didn't admit it, he still felt that his wife was slowly becoming prettier. Not only did she become fairer, but there was also some meat on her cheeks. Anyway, he woke up early in the morning. Sometimes, he didn't want to get up, so he could look at the Ai Cao's face for most of the day.
After sending Fu Jiu away, Gu Dong originally thought that the Ai Cao would be in the kitchen, but he didn't see him. After looking around the courtyard, he definitely wouldn't be in the house.
Where was he? Where did he go? In the end, Gu Dong even looked for the toilet, but he still didn't see him.
Seeing that there was no Ai Cao in or out of the courtyard, Gu Dong's heart suddenly sank. His silly wife wouldn't run away after hearing all those nonsense, would she?
Thinking of this possibility, Gu Dong ran out like the wind. After turning the corner, he met Qi Fang, Cao Aiguo, and the other educated youths. He hurriedly asked, "Have you seen Ai Cao?"
"No," Fu Fang replied.
"Did something happen? Do you need our help? "Duan Xue asked with concern.
"It's fine, there's no need for that!" Gu Dong glanced at Duan Xue and quickly ran towards the Ai family.
"What kind of person is he? Duan Xue, you wanted to help him, but look at him. He really is a country bumpkin with no manners!" Cao Aiguo felt injustice for Duan Xue.
"Don't talk so much. Maybe he has something urgent to do." Qi Fang frowned as he watched Gu Dong run away.
"Cao Aiguo, how can you be like this? You always think so badly of people. "Fu Fang pulled Tian Yuanyuan and retorted, then continued to walk towards the educated youths.
"Fu Fang, what do you mean? You …" Cao Aiguo chased after him and shouted.
Gu Dong, who was far away, didn't know that after he left, he didn't care about the quarrel between the educated youths. Right now, he just wanted to find the Ai Cao as soon as possible.
With great difficulty, he finally ran to the Ai family's door. Before he even lifted his foot, he heard wailing and cursing from inside. It should be Ai Dabao's wife crying, and Old Mrs. Ai scolding her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law.
The ear-piercing noise was like a heavy hammer hitting Gu Dong's head, instantly calming him down.
How could he forget that the Ai Cao didn't like the Ai family? Unless the Ai Cao was determined not to live with him, she definitely wouldn't return to the Ai family.
Standing outside the wall and listening, Gu Dong knew that the Ai Cao didn't come back. Then where did she go? Gu Dong thought about it, but he couldn't think of where the Ai Cao could have gone. Even though she lived in the village for more than ten years, the Ai Cao didn't seem to have a good relationship with anyone.
After walking around the village, Gu Dong ran up the mountain like crazy. She couldn't have gone into the mountain, right? Thinking of this possibility, Gu Dong's heart tightened. Ever since the attack on the Ai Cao in the mountain, he usually didn't let her go in alone. He was always worried that she would meet that "savage" again and get into trouble.
What Gu Dong was worried about didn't happen, because the Ai Cao didn't go in at all. He shouted and searched all the places that he had brought her to before, but he still didn't find any trace of the Ai Cao.
Seeing that the sky was about to turn dark, Gu Dong became even more anxious. "Bang!" He punched a big tree that was as thick as the mouth of a bowl. The sound of the crash startled the tired birds that had already returned to their nests. Seeing this, Gu Dong became even more annoyed.
He blamed himself, he blamed himself. He knew his wife's temper, so he shouldn't have talked nonsense with Fu Jiu. Also, when his wife was angry, why didn't he care about his face? Why didn't he immediately explain to her?
His mind was in a mess. Gu Dong wanted to beat himself to death.
When he came down from the mountain, his mind was full of thoughts about where to find the person next. He struggled to walk back to the village. When he looked in the direction of his house, his mind went blank.
There was no one at home. Who was cooking? Could it be that the Ai Cao had already gone home?
Looking at the rising smoke, Gu Dong, who was rushing home, almost burst into tears. His heart had never been so full of expectation and hope like at this moment.
"Bang! Bang! "Gu Dong pushed open the courtyard door and rushed to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the Ai Cao was cooking corn porridge. Hearing the movement in the courtyard, she turned her head and was shocked. "Hey!" Gu Dong stood at the door like a door god. He looked at her as if he had a grudge against her.
"Where did you go?" Therefore, when they saw that he was safe and sound, and even acted as if nothing had happened, their anxiousness and worry disappeared. Instead, they became a little anxious.
Everything was fine, but he disappeared without saying a word. Didn't he know that his family would be worried?
"It's none of your business!" The Ai Cao was still angry at him for what happened in the afternoon. They were already married, but he was still thinking about that educated Duan Xue. Sure enough, there were no good men!
The Ai Cao's attitude made Gu Dong angry. He wanted to hit her, but he was really scared when he couldn't find her. Control, he must control himself. Gu Dong resisted the urge to hit her butt and said hatefully, "Do you know that I couldn't find you in the afternoon? I looked for you for a long time!"
When he looked at the Ai Cao now, she was simply a disobedient brat. She was too noisy. His hands were itching to beat her up.
However, in his heart, he knew that this was his wife, not his brat. If she was disobedient, she could be scolded. In the future, if the Ai Cao had a son who dared to be so stubborn with his father, he would beat him until he became obedient.
The Ai Cao wasn't an unreasonable girl who only knew how to cause trouble. When Gu Dong said this, her heart trembled. No wonder Gu Dong's cheeks were red, his face was covered in sweat, and he was panting. She thought that he had gone to do some work. Now it seemed that he had gone to look for her.
This man, didn't he like someone like the Duan Xue who was knowledgeable, quiet, and could talk? Then why did he care so much about her! Moreover, she had only been gone for an hour.
Hmph, who told you to think about what you had in the pot when you were eating from the bowl? But even though she thought that, she still explained with a guilty conscience, "The backyard. I went to the backyard grove."
"The grove? Why did you go there for no reason? Why didn't you stay at home? Why did you run around! " So she only went to the grove behind the house. Seriously, he was so scared that he thought she was throwing a tantrum and running away.
"Hmph, it's none of your business. Go think about your educated youth!" The Ai Cao looked like a villain who had succeeded. Straight? X? X's words stung him.
Originally, she had planned to tell him her secret and the two of them would have a good life in the future. But in the end, this man was still thinking about another woman in his heart. How could she not be angry? In the afternoon, when she came out of the house, she ran to the backyard grove and cried for a while.
After scolding Gu Dong for a while, she finally convinced herself that this man wasn't important. If he didn't like her, then so be it. If she really couldn't live with him in the future, then she would leave. In any case, there was a granary, so she wouldn't starve to death.
She thought about how Gu Dong and Fu Jiu were chatting and laughing in the house while eating chicken and soup, while she was still hungry. Why was she crying pitifully like a resentful woman? In the end, the Ai Cao sneaked into her Zhuangzi, caught a fish, and stewed it.
After eating and drinking to her heart's content, she came out and found that this heartless man was actually not at home. She didn't know where he went to fool around. If he really dared to get close to that educated youth and had bad thoughts, she would use a kitchen knife to teach him a lesson!
However, just as she was letting her imagination run wild and fantasizing about teaching Gu Dong a lesson, the courtyard door burst open with a bang and he came back.
Looking at the man in front of him who was sweating profusely because he was looking for her, the Ai Cao couldn't live up to his expectations and became soft-hearted. The armor that he had just put on in the afternoon cracked again.
Who cares? In any case, the Ai Cao wanted to throw a tantrum at him right now. Who told him to think about that Duan Xue?
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who's thinking about that Duan Xue? That was just a joke with Fu Jiu. "Gu Dong's flushed face became even redder as he explained a little awkwardly. Although he had thought about it before, he had long since given up on it after getting married.
"Then who was the one who said that he was envious of Fu Qiang?" The Ai Cao originally planned to ignore him and turn around to continue cooking. However, when he heard Gu Dong's explanation, he couldn't help but add on.
Gu Dong rubbed his nose and coughed to hide his guilty conscience. In the afternoon, he was indeed the one who said that he was envious.
"What's there to be envious about? Even if you gave it to me for free, I wouldn't want it. I think you're pretty good. In the future, live well and don't mess around!" Gu Dong said the sentence in the middle like a mosquito buzzing. However, the Ai Cao, who had sharp ears, still heard it.
However, the arrogant Mugwort couldn't hold back her smile. She asked cheekily, "What did you say? You said the sentence in the middle too softly. I didn't hear it clearly! "
Heh, she was taking advantage of him. Gu Dong's face turned red. He stretched his neck and said, "I didn't say anything. Hurry up and cook!" She was laughing like that and still said that she didn't hear it. Did she really think that he was an idiot?
No matter what, this matter was over. The Ai Cao didn't pursue the matter of Duan Xue. However, she also put aside the matter of Zhuangzi with Gu Dong. However, the Ai Cao still took out food to fill the house whenever she had the chance.
All the food in the house was brought back by Gu Dong. Even if he wasn't the one cooking, he had done it for so many years. He knew how long that little bit of food could last if it was made into a thick or watery paste.
Although the Ai Cao didn't add much each time, Gu Dong slowly realized that there was a difference as she took out food for three meals a day.
That day after breakfast, Gu Dong was sharpening his sickle in the courtyard while the Ai Cao was washing clothes. While they were chatting, Gu Dong suddenly asked her, "Did you notice that the corn and chestnuts we got recently are especially delicious?"
