After Xiao Fubao's Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital Chapter 4

Chapter 4 The Gu family

Zhang Yunniang suppressed the sour emotions surging in her heart and said softly: "Auntie wants Niuniu to live well and grow up healthily. Auntie will be very sad when she thinks that she won't be able to see you grow up."

When Niu Niu heard this, her face was filled with confusion. This feeling of not being willing to spend money but not wanting her to feel uncomfortable made the five-year-old girl so nervous that she could no longer turn her head.

Zhang Yunniang whispered again: "Niuniu, I can't live without my aunt. I still have a lot of copper coins."

Then, while no one was watching, she glanced at Niu Niu's purse.

Niu Niu couldn't help but widen her eyes when she saw a handful of copper plates and even a small piece of silver coins placed inside.

The little girl had never seen so much money, but she still said: "Auntie's money belongs to auntie, Niuniu can't spend it randomly."

Zhang Yunniang was full of tenderness: "Auntie likes Niuniu and wants to spend money on Niuniu."

She was afraid that the little girl would continue to struggle, so she deliberately asked: "When Niuniu grows up and can make money, can you also spend money for your aunt?"

Niuniu nodded vigorously.

Zhang Yunniang reached out and touched the little girl's soft hair.

"Can aunt make money by herself?" Niu Niu asked in a low voice.

Zhang Yunniang looked at the little girl's silly look and thought she was so cute. She smiled and said, "Yes, aunt can earn a lot of money, buy a lot of food for Niuniu, and raise Niuniu to be strong."

When Niuniu heard this, her heart finally fell.

The wonton in front was already cold, so Zhang Yunniang changed it to a warm one and fed it to Niu Niu. This time, the little girl finally no longer refused.

After a mouthful of wontons, the little girl's eyes lit up again, and she said vaguely: "Good...good time! Auntie, too!"

After Zhang Yunniang also took a bite, she felt that the five copper coins were worth spending. No wonder everyone said that the wontons at this restaurant are delicious.

After finishing the wontons, Zhang Yunniang did not leave in a hurry, but asked softly: "Can Niuniu be the daughter of my aunt and uncle from now on?"

When Niu Niu heard the last sentence, her big eyes were shining, and the joy in her eyes almost overflowed.

But soon she looked a little disappointed and said: "My parents and grandma always say that raising Niuniu costs a lot of food, and Niu Niu doesn't want to spend the food from her aunt's family."

Zhang Yunniang was a little angry after hearing this. She didn't want Niu Niu to stay in that home for a second longer. She even regretted that she didn't think of adopting Niu Niu earlier.

"Niuniu, you are still young, so you don't have to worry about these things. Tell your aunt if you are willing to be my aunt's daughter?" Zhang Yunniang asked seriously.

Niu Niu nodded vigorously. She did not tell her aunt that when she was most uncomfortable with the fever last night, she was lying in the woodshed and made a wish to God, hoping that she would have a mother who loves her as much as her aunt.

Zhang Yunniang smiled and said, "Then you will call me mother from now on."

Niuniu immediately snuggled into Zhang Yunniang's arms and couldn't wait to shout: "Mom!"

Zhang Yuniang's heart felt sour. She obviously had three sons and it was not her first time becoming a mother, but she still felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction when she heard the little girl's cry.

She had always liked Niu Niu, but now she felt as if this child should be her daughter.

As usual, Uncle Niu's oxcart returns in the evening, and Zhang Yunniang obviously can't wait until then. She has to deal with Niuniu's matter first, and she has to go back to discuss it with her husband's family.

"Mom, I'll come down and walk by myself. You'll be tired."

On the way, Niu Niu was afraid that Zhang Yunniang would work too hard and wanted to get down and walk by herself.

But even though Zhang Yunniang's legs were sore from walking, she still insisted on carrying it on her back and said: "It's okay, Mom has plenty of strength. You are just sick, so you need to rest more." Niu Niu had nothing to do with her, she could only hope silently in her heart, if It would be nice to ride in a bullock cart.

Strangely enough, Zhang Yunniang had only taken two steps when she heard movement behind her. When she looked back, she saw Uncle Niu running over with an empty ox cart.

Zhang Yunniang handed over a copper plate and got into the car, and asked in confusion: "Uncle Niu? Why do you have to go home so early?"

Uncle Niu said with a gloomy look on his face: "The goods I brought for someone were left at home. People in the town are urging me. They must deliver them today. If I deliver them tomorrow, I won't pay for them."

However, Zhang Yunniang looked dazed and looked down at Niu Niu, who was well-behaved in her arms.

Just catching up with the bullock cart was not enough to convince Zhang Yunniang that she was lucky today, but thinking about Niu Niu's fever that went away when she entered the city, the free medical treatment, and the bullock cart that fell on her when she felt tired on the way back, she seemed to have good luck. Too much?

Zhang Yuniang thought that the old people in the village secretly said that Niu Niu was lucky, and she became more and more convinced of this statement.

The bullock cart entered Qingshui Village and put Zhang Yun and her daughter down.

Zhang Yunniang felt anxious and took the little girl into Gu's house on the left side of the village entrance.

The Gu family is still headed by Mrs. Gu. Father Gu is getting older and his brain is a little bad now. Sometimes he is sober, sometimes he is confused, and sometimes he doesn't even recognize his family members.

Gu Taitong gave birth to three sons and one daughter. The eldest, Gu Mingshu, and his daughter-in-law, Chen Chunhua, gave birth to two sons and one daughter; the second, Gu Mingda, was the husband of Zhang Yunniang, and the couple gave birth to three sons; the third, Gu Mingli, and his daughter-in-law, Liu Erni, gave birth to three sons. They have one son and one daughter; the youngest daughter of the old couple died before she grew up.

Nowadays, the entire Lao Gu family has not been divided, and there are fifteen people living there.

After Zhang Yunniang finished talking about her plan to adopt Niuniu, her sister-in-law Chen Chunhua jumped up in anxiety and shouted: "Oh my God, there are so many people in the family who can't even eat, and you still have to pretend to be a big boss outside and fight for it." I don't agree with raising a girl who can't be beaten!”

Mrs. Gu ignored the eldest daughter-in-law's shouting. She had already listened to the cause and effect in the village. At this time, she looked at Zhang Yunniang's husband Gu Mingda with a calm face: "Second brother, is it your wife's idea to adopt this child, or is it yours?" idea?”

Zhang Yunniang immediately looked at her husband Gu Mingda with expectant eyes.

Gu Mingda gave his wife a gentle look, nodded gently, and turned to Old Man Gu and said, "Mom, this child had a miserable life in the Zhang family. He had a fever all night last night and almost lost his life. Adopt She is both Yun Niang's idea and my idea.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu looked hesitant.

Chen Chunhua knew that her mother-in-law always listened to her second brother's words, so she hurriedly said: "Mom, raising a child is no small matter, and this is no ordinary child. I heard from the Zhang family that this girl is an unlucky plague god, full of bad luck! "

When Niuniu heard this, tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn't dare to refute. She looked so pitiful.

Zhang Yunniang immediately protected the child behind her and said: "Sister-in-law, don't listen to the nonsense of my mother's family. My Niuniu is obviously a lucky girl, and she is not unlucky at all!"

Chen Chunhua curled her lips and said: "She is not unlucky. How come the Zhang family was so miserable by her? Mom, my second brother will take part in the scholar examination again this year. Don't be like Zhang Guangzong, who broke his hand before the exam." ”

When Mrs. Gu heard this, her expression suddenly changed. Among her three sons, only Gu Mingda was a scholar.

Obviously the teachers said that he was very knowledgeable and would definitely be admitted as a scholar, but he always had something unexpected happen before every exam, either from cold or diarrhea, or from oversleeping and being unable to enter the examination room. He didn't pass the exam until he was twenty-five.

When it came time to take the scholar exam, Gu Mingda also encountered various unlucky things, such as sitting in a bad position, raining and getting the paper wet, and sitting in the toilet seat and being suffocated by the stench during the exam, and passed out, and other weird things. He can meet them all.

"Yun Niang, this child should be sent back to Zhang..."

Before Mrs. Gu could say anything, Dad Gu, who had been sitting silently next to her, suddenly started to move, stood up, stared at Niu Niu with a pair of cloudy eyes, and shouted vaguely: "Nanny..."

Mrs. Gu's expression changed instantly.
