Chapter 3: fate

　　 Although she was surprised, Gu Shiba Niang was more insistent, and Cao had to let her wash the dishes.
　　 Gu Hai stayed at home to accompany her, and the Cao family hurried out.
　　 Gu Shiba Niang couldn't help feeling a little excited when he saw Cao carefully bring a bowl of water mixed with grass ash in front of him.
　　 She was excited once again when she saw what she had experienced recurring before her eyes, and once again confirmed that she was really born again.
The memory of the past was magically clear. She was injured this time because she followed her brother up the mountain to collect firewood. She accidentally fell down the ravine and hurt her head. Ask the doctor to spend a lot of money at home. She loved her mother Cao and worried about her daughter. Falling away from her soul, she made a special trip to give her Fushui to drink, and after drinking this bowl of Fushui, she began to vomit and diarrhea in the middle of the night and became seriously ill. In order to cure her, her mother sold the only one now Property, that is, this shelter.
　　 It was precisely because of the sale of the house that my mother had to take them to their relatives, and everything started here.
　　 "Mother, I am a little dizzy now, I will drink later." Gu Shiba Niang helped her head and said in a low voice.
　　 Cao was taken aback, hurriedly put down the water bowl, probed her forehead, and carefully helped her to lie down on the bed.
　　 "You lie down, call your mother when you're better, mother feed you." Cao asked, sitting in front of the bed with her, holding shoes in his hand.
　　 Watching her mother sitting peacefully next to her, listening to her mother humming an unknown little tune, she glanced at herself with care from time to time. Gu Shiba Niang couldn't help but her eyes were sore, she closed her eyes.
　　 "Eighteen mothers?" Cao gave her a look and whispered.
Gu Shiba Niang was afraid that she would cry again when she opened her eyes, so she pretended to be asleep, and Cao pulled her up, touching her face lovingly, and then took the shoes and uppers in her hand. The last dragonfly gradually came to life with her needlework.
　　 "Gu's sister-in-law... Gu's sister-in-law..."
　　 There was a loud voice outside the door, Cao was shocked, put down his shoes, and stepped out a few steps.
　　 "Come... Aunt Liu, don't shout," Cao said in a low voice, opening the door, "Eighteen mothers just slept..."
　　 Gu Shiba Niang was naturally not asleep, she opened her eyes, rubbed it, and listened to the low voice of conversation in the yard.
　　 An earthen bottle was placed in front of the brass mirror with a handful of tender willows. Gu Shiba Niang poured the water into the earthen bottle and looked into the courtyard through the window pane.
　　 A fat woman wearing a Jiaohong short waist skirt of the same color was talking lively. Although her voice was lowered by Cao's reminder, some of it still passed into Gu Shiba Niang's ears.
　　 "... Zhang Dahu has already opened a high price..."
　　 "Oh, Mrs. Gu, how can you sell this house for a hundred taels of silver..."
　　 "...you are not facing the street here...you are at the bottom of the alley again...yes...yes...I know this is your family's ancestral property...but no matter how old the ancestral property is, it will be dilapidated?
　　 Gu Shiba Niang listened to her uncontrollable heartbeat speeding up, she was about to sell her house...
　　 The conversation in the yard soon ended, and the Cao family personally sent the Aunt Liu out.
　　 "...I said Madam Gu, you can decide quickly..." Aunt Liu asked again before going out.
　　 Mr. Cao nodded, "I know, thank you very much for bothering..."
　　 "It's not.... Neighbors from the neighbourhood.... Seeing your orphans and widows have a difficult life, I feel bad in my heart..." Aunt Liu touched her eyes when she said this.
　　 Cao was said to be sad, so he wiped his tears.
Gu Shiba Niang stood in front of the window with a hint of ridicule. Now she is no longer a 13-year-old child. She has more than ten years of life experience. In the past ten years, she has seen cold and warm conspiracies and tricks, Aunt Liu Where did that little heart escape her eyes.
　　 Aunt Liu, I’m afraid it’s going to be better, their house...
　　 Gu Shiba Niang looked around the small courtyard through the window panes. The house was left to them by her grandfather. Although it is small, the layout is excellent. Now that her father is gone, there are many people who covet their house.
　　 is absolutely not allowed to sell, Gu Shiba Niang clenched her fist, and will never allow the recurrence of fate under the fence, but what will she do?
　　 Cao also glanced around the house in the yard, sighed quietly, and opened the door gently, only to see his daughter standing by the window with her little brows clustered together.
　　 "But did you wake you up?" Cao smiled, and his eyes fell on the empty bowl on the table, "Drink?"
　　 Gu Shiba Niang nodded, and the Cao family didn't doubt that he was there, and relieved with relief.
　　 "Where is your brother? Go to school?" Gu Shiba Niang asked casually, looking around in the yard.
　　 A trace of guilt flashed across Cao’s face, and he sighed, "Your brother...has gone to collect firewood..."
As a descendant of scholars, Gu Hai, like his father, naturally wanted to study in order to gain an official career. When he was a child, he followed his father to study. Later, when he grew up, his father failed many attempts. Although he failed repeatedly, he still knew himself in his heart. Not talented, I was afraid that he would delay his son's studies, so he gave him Shuxiu, and went to the county school to study. There was a famous scholar in the school.
After the death of Gu’s father, life at home became more and more difficult. Gu Hai became more and more unwilling to study. He went to collect firewood to subsidize the family after school occasionally, to collect firewood once every three days. After dropping a lot and being mocked by the children of the clan, Gu Hai began to hate studying, and finally gave up going to school completely.
　　 For the underachievers like them, there is no better way to go except studying and becoming an official.
　　 Gu Shiba Niang bit her lower lip.
　　 "I'm back." Gu Hai's voice rang out, "Mother, open the door."
　　 The Cao family hurriedly went out and opened the door. Gu Hai came in sweating profusely with a bundle of firewood on his back. Ge Bu's short coat was put on the pile of firewood by him, wearing only his shirt.
　　 "Brother, drink water." Gu Shiba Niang walked to him with the water.
　　 This is the first time I have drunk the water sent by my sister. Gu Hai grinned, and hurriedly took the water and drank it. Obviously, he was very thirsty. Cao looked distressed and turned his face to wipe his tears.
　　 "Mother, yesterday's firewood was sold for ten cents!" Gu Hai did not pay attention to her movements, excitedly took out the money and handed it over.
　　 Mr. Cao hurriedly answered and praised him with tears in his eyes.
　　 "...Tomorrow I will sell these, you must not miss your homework..." Cao naturally hoped that his son would study, and he did not forget to tell him, "...Mr. I'm afraid to get angry..."
This is the time he has earned the most money since selling firewood. The excitement of working hard for the family occupied all his thoughts. Hearing what his mother said, Gu Hai immediately said nonchalantly: "You can't miss it. These days, I have been speaking the Analects of Confucius. My father taught me a long time ago, and then I feel verbose..."
"Brother..." Gu Shiba Niang suddenly interjected. UU read www.uukanshu.com. "Zi said to learn and learn from time to time, not to mention, father taught you, and your husband taught you again. Shouldn't it be happier? "
　　 Gu Hai was choked, looking at his sister's shiny eyes, scratching his head unnaturally, "Um... that... I didn't mean that, I naturally want to..."
Seeing her daughter say a word to live with her son, Cao not only smiled, but was also a little surprised. It was not that her daughter knew the Analects. Her husband taught her daughter to study when she was alive, and because of her weakness, she didn’t have a daughter red. All his free time was When reading the book, she was surprised by her daughter's behavior.
　　 The eighteenth girl has a supple temperament. She does what others say. She has never actively expressed her opinion. Now she knows to persuade her brother to study.
　　 It is said that only those who have experienced hardship can grow up. The son knows to pay for the family with firewood, and the daughter knows to care for his brother...
　　 The Cao family lowered his head and quietly wiped away his tears. The family life is really difficult. Sooner or later, Gu Hai's book will not be able to read anymore. It is better to look back at the family and the tribe, and the children will have a good future.
　　 "Brother Hai, Shiba Niang, let's go back to Jiankang." The Cao family touched the children's shoulders, and said with his son and daughter close to him.
