He picked a lot of herbs and brought back a bundle of firewood. What was left was a bag of wild vegetables.
There were wild vegetables, wood ears, some wild mushrooms, and a few wild fruits.
There was not much of them, only a little more mushrooms.
As for the prey, there was a pheasant and two birds.
Gu Qingyao did not know the names of these two birds, but since Gu Yunshen had brought them back, they must be edible.
Gu Yunshen was a little surprised to see Gu Ruoqing washing clothes by the well when he returned home, but he did not say anything. The Gu family could not afford to raise her for nothing.
In the past, she would only listen to him. Now that he was not at home, Gu Ruoqing was actually working. Gu Yunshen was very satisfied.
After handing the things to his younger daughter in the kitchen, Gu Yunshen went outside to boil water to clean up the pheasant and the two birds.
There was a large earthen pot under the eaves outside and a platform for cooking. It was very convenient.
Gu Ruoqing was very angry that her father did not feel sorry for her at all when he saw her working.
Soon, Gu Qingyao finished cooking dinner. At this time, Gu Ruoqing finally finished washing the clothes.
She rarely worked. Now that she had washed so many clothes and had not eaten for a day, she was dizzy from hunger and tired. Seeing that it was time to eat, she quickly hung up the clothes and came over to eat.
Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu were also called back by Gu Yunshen. Everyone washed their hands and ate.
Dinner was wild vegetables, cornbread, dried sweet potato porridge, dried radish, and stir-fried vegetables with mushrooms. There was more of the latter, or it would not be enough for so many people.
Seeing that there was no meat, Gu Ruoqing was unhappy.
"Where's the meat at home? How can we eat this? There's no oil at all. "
Normally, Gu Ruoqing would not despise these things. After all, in this day and age, it was good enough to have food to eat. How could she be picky?
But after all, the Gu family had several soldiers. Usually, they had more resources and Zhang Xiaohui doted on her. In comparison, she was more spoiled.
Now that she had to eat this after working for a day, she was unhappy.
Especially when she knew that there was so much meat at home but she could not eat it. She despised these things even more.
Gu Qingyao said, "Why can't we eat this? It's already good enough to have food to eat, many people are still starving! "
"We just ate the meat yesterday. We're saving the rest for the new year. We can't eat it every day. Where can we find so much meat to eat? What's more, your mother took so much of it to the Zhang family. Otherwise, it would be enough for our whole family to eat several more meals. "
Gu Ruoqing was about to retort when Gu Yunshen glared at her. "Eat!"
Gu Ruoqing was so frightened by Gu Yunshen's words that she did not dare to speak.
In this family, the person she was most afraid of was not her grandparents, but her father. Even her mother was most afraid of her father.
Every time she was stared at by her father's dark eyes, she would feel goosebumps all over her body!
Gu Ruoqing did not dare to say anything else and lowered her head to eat.
Gu Qingyao put enough oil and seasonings on the vegetables with mushrooms. It tasted good and they ate it all.
When Gu Ruoqing wanted to get a second bowl of porridge, she realized that it was gone.
She was dumbfounded. "Gu Qingyao, where's the food? Why are they gone? "
Gu Qingyao said calmly, "Haven't we already eaten? Why are you eating so much at night? It's fine as long as I don't starve to death! "
Gu Ruoqing: "…"
Everyone: "…"
