Gu Yundong frowned. He felt that his wife was right, but he was very firm about his younger sister, Gu Yunshuang. Gu Yundong was very determined.
"If my younger sister wants to get married, then let her get married. If she can't find a suitable man, then let her stay at home. We've been away from home all year round, and the two elders haven't been filial to us all these years. If it weren't for Weiqi at home, how could we be at ease and stay away from home?"
"If my younger sister is at home, she can take care of the two elders. It's not a bad thing!"
Zhou Ping looked at her husband's expression and pursed her lips. In the end, she didn't say anything.
The four children of the Gu family were all at home, so Gu Qingyao naturally made more delicious food for them. However, there were many people at home at this time, so she didn't go overboard.
Her father and grandparents knew about her situation, but these uncles and aunts didn't know. Gu Qingyao didn't intend to explain it to them.
Judging from her father and grandparents' reaction, she didn't intend to tell them. Therefore, she tried to keep a low profile.
But even so, this meal was still very good for the family.
Tonight, they had sweet potato porridge. Some rice was added to the porridge, and there were also more sweet potatoes. Therefore, this was the main dish. There were no pancakes or rice.
The dishes were a plate of pickled beans, a plate of cabbage, and a portion of chili sauce.
Gu Qingyao made more chili sauce this time. There were some diced beans, diced radishes, and so on. There were a lot of seasonings, so a bowl of sauce was enough to eat for several meals.
There were three dishes for so many people to eat together.
However, they ate early now, and there was still a long time in the evening. Therefore, Gu Qingyao prepared more food for the children.
They were boiled sweet potatoes.
Some small sweet potatoes that didn't look very good could be washed and put in a jar. Then, they could be boiled.
The boiled sweet potatoes were soft. After breaking them open, there was sugar water inside. Children loved to eat them.
The amount of food was still sufficient. Such conditions were at least much better than that of many farmers. In fact, it was even better than that of Third Uncle Gu Yundong in the provincial capital.
Zhou Ping ate the food in front of him. He looked at the children who were wolfing down the food and thought about Gu Yunshuang who was eating alone in the house.
She knew that Gu Yunshuang had chicken soup with noodles tonight, which was personally made by Wen Ruyu.
She had been at home for a few days. During this period of time, she had been watching Gu Yunshuang eat. Old Master had been prescribing medicine for her. They were all medicine to nourish her body.
Even though she had never studied medicine, she knew that those were tonics.
Other than that, Gu Yunshuang had three meals a day. Every meal was fine grain. In the past few days, Gu Yunshuang had not eaten more than three meals of coarse grain.
Not only was there fine grain, but there was also meat every day.
Chicken soup, fish soup, bone soup …
In this day and age, it was good enough to be able to eat during confinement. Many people worked in the fields before giving birth. The children were born in the fields and continued to work after giving birth.
Who raised them like Gu Yunshuang?
The children in the house did not eat as well as she did.
And Li Fangting had gained a lot of weight in the past few days. She was full of energy. This was all because of the good food.
Zhou Ping pursed her lips and lowered her head to eat.
After dinner, the children went to the storeroom to warm up. Old Master Gu Chonghua, Eldest Uncle Gu Yunjing, and Eldest Brother Gu Jinye were in the upper room discussing some matters. Gu Yunshen was also there.
They were about to leave. Naturally, they had to make arrangements for the family.
At first, Third Uncle Gu Yundong was also there. After talking for a while, he returned. They were also packing their luggage. After the Lantern Festival, they would return to the provincial capital.
