Chapter 129: Talking in the Heart at Night

Most of the people in this village live in poverty.
Except for Chinese New Year holidays, dumplings are generally not eaten. Dumplings require both meat and flour, which is very expensive.
Gu Ning'an and the others began to remember, as if they had never eaten dumplings.
Gu Xiaowan originally planned to cook dumplings in the kitchen alone, but Gu Ning'an and the others disagreed, saying that her sister was in the kitchen alone, and they were not relieved. Where there is no sister, it is not warm at all.
Gu Xiaowan was immediately warmed by their words. Fortunately, during this time, I didn't hurt them in vain.
The four children went to the small kitchen again, put the water in the big pot, and Gu Ningping kept on the fire. When the water in the big pot boiled, Gu Xiaowan put the dumplings into the pot and put cold water three times in the same way as the dumplings. After that, all the dumplings floated to the surface of the water, and the dumplings were even cooked.
The smell of dumplings came out of the pot. Gu Xiaoyi smelled the scent, and couldn't help it. He grabbed the stove and asked milkily, "Sister, when it can be good, I'm all greedy."
Gu Xiaowan touched her little sister's head: "Look at your little greedy person, don't worry, it will be done soon. When the water in the pot is boiled this time, the dumplings will be cooked." Gu Xiaoyi has been a long time. Quite a lot.
"Ning'an, go and tidy up the table, put the bowls and chopsticks, you can eat dumplings soon."
Gu Ning'an hadn't eaten dumplings before, and was so happy that he hurried into the big house, and Gu Xiaoyi followed all the way in: "Brother, I'm going too!" The two went to work as instructed to take care of Xiaowan.
The water in the big pot boiled again, and Gu Xiaowan fished out the dumplings.
The first bowl is naturally to be placed on the pot table with a pair of chopsticks on it. This is the case during the Chinese New Year, to be dedicated to the Lord Stove. In the past, whether it was at grandma's or grandma's, there was this habit. Now, it's Gu Xiaowan's turn to be this little family, and the habit left by this predecessor can't be forgotten.
After that, Gu Xiaowan picked up all the dumplings and put them in the big bowl, and Gu Ningan and the others took them into the big house.
The New Year's Eve dinner in the afternoon made them feel unfulfilled. There were dumplings to eat at this time, all with a satisfied smile.
Each of the four children had a bowl full of dumplings. After all the four had sat down, Gu Xiaowan picked up the chopsticks: "Go!"

As if they had received some instructions, they stopped talking, and directly picked up the chopsticks and attacked the dumplings in front of them. This dumpling has a thin skin and a lot of meat, and the meat inside is full of fat, all of which are full. If you bite it, it is not only fragrant, but also full of oil. The taste is really good.
Gu Ningping devoured one, before swallowing it, he vaguely said, "It's delicious, delicious! It's delicious!"
Gu Xiaoyi also ate a small half, and said milkyly, "Sister, Xiaoyi likes it."
"Well, you can eat more if you like it. If you still want to eat, we will pack it next time." Gu Xiaowan was very happy to see that several children like it.
Gu Ning'an also ate one. Gu Xiaowan was really curious about how Gu Chuanfu and his wife taught the children to eat at the time. Although the family is poor, they should have eaten something delicious, just like Gu Ningping. same.
However, last time Aunt Zhang and his family came, Gu Ningping ate in front of outsiders in a gentle manner, and did not rush for food at all. It's just a few kids who understand table manners very well. Look at Gu Ning'an, holding chopsticks in his hand and eating dumplings carefully, which is completely different from children in the country. Gu Xiaowan has also seen children in the country eating. The posture is the same as if they haven't eaten for hundreds of years. They eat very fast.
But these children, except Gu Ningping, the other two eat slowly, very gentle. It is estimated that Tian's and the others carefully taught. Gu Xiaowan taught these children again, especially relaxed.
Gu Ning'an didn't speak, but seeing him eating dumplings revealed the satisfaction and happiness that even Tibet couldn't hide. Gu Xiaowan was also relieved. As long as these children can be happy and happy, this is the happiest thing for her to come here.
After eating dumplings, Gu Xiaoyi was a little tired. Gu Xiaowan wiped her hands and hugged her into the bed. Gu Ningping also lay in the bed. Gu Ning'an and Gu Xiaowan lie down at the end. Logically speaking, the lights should be lit overnight on New Year's Eve. Therefore, the candles in the house were still not extinguished, and the entire house was illuminated.
It may be that the big guys were tired today and didn't have a nap in the afternoon. Gu Xiaoyi and Gu Ningping fell asleep in a short while, and they snored in the quiet room. Listening to this voice, Gu Xiaowan felt unprecedented satisfaction in her heart. Originally wanted to go to sleep, at this moment, Gu Ning'an came in a low voice: "Sister, are you asleep?"
"Not yet! Why are you still asleep!" Gu Xiaowan was curious about how late Gu Ningan hadn't fallen asleep. He is also tired today.
"Sister, I can't sleep. Let me talk to you, okay?" Gu Ningan's voice was very small, for fear of waking up the sleeping brother and sister. Gu Xiaowan said, "Okay."
"Sister, thank you!" This is the first time Gu Ning'an has said thank you, and it is Xie Gu Xiaowan, and I don't know why. It is reasonable to say that he and his sister are a family and should not have said thank you. But there was a voice in my heart that said to myself, in this life, the one that should be cherished, respected, and thanked the most is my sister.
"Thank you? You are my brother!" Gu Xiaowan was a little embarrassed. They praised that they were okay. If they really thanked themselves seriously, Gu Xiaowan would still be a little uncomfortable.
"Sister, you gave our whole family hope!" Gu Ning'an was right. I don't know why, since Gu Xiaowan came alive after falling into the water, Gu Ningan felt that her sister was different from before. She used to cringe, and when she was wronged, she would hold their crying sister, as if she was gone. The elder sister in front of me is confident and strong, as if she understands everything and can't trouble her.
