Chapter 17 Lying
No matter what, milk powder is definitely better than rice soup. Don’t bully children because you really don’t know anything.

Seeing the child drinking the milk powder in big gulps, Mr. and Mrs. Gu Shan's eyes turned red again.

Not to mention them, even the child's grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Gu, were very grateful to Gu Wan.

But there are some who are blind and ignorant, such as Gu Bin, who is always beaten by his grandparents for doing his job improperly for various reasons.

He actually found the flaw in Gu Wan's words and pointed it out directly: "That's not right, sister Wanwan, your adoptive parents are eager to kick you out. But why don't they want you to register at the Youth Educated Office?"

Fortunately, Gu Wan has an omnipotent father.

Gu Zhiqiang's love for his daughter surpassed everything else, and his two sons had to stand aside, not to mention his nephew from the next room.

Without Gu Wan saying anything, Gu Zhiqiang had already found a very suitable reason for his daughter: "Even if they want to drive Wan Wan away, they can't say it openly. Outsiders will think that their family is inhumane."

This is true——

Gu Wan felt that this was somewhat true. After Qin Shiman returned to the Qin family, the original owner was still left in the compound.

The little bit of family affection that remains in Qin's father and mother's hearts may not play a big role, and what her biological father said may really be right.

Anyway, even though there were many people in the Gu family, the meal was still very sumptuous.

There was a piece of pork belly that Grandpa Gu had specially exchanged for Gu Wan's return, but he specially made it into braised pork.

The pheasant that Gu Wan brought back was quite big, and Mrs. Gu and her three daughters-in-law were wondering if they could eat it over two days.

The old lady was still bold and said directly: "There are many people in the family. Once the meal is cooked, you all have to thank Wanwan for eating the chicken."

The old lady was a sensible person. There were many people in her family, and if the chicken was cooked over two days, each person would not be able to eat much.

It would be better to let everyone eat to their heart's content all at once, so that the sons, daughters-in-law and grandchildren will remember Wanwan's kindness.

I made a whole pot of pheasant and potatoes, and it was really a big pot.

But it was really great that so many people from the Gu family had a meal together. They ate everything. Even the soup from the roast chicken and potatoes was eaten up by the boys.

In just one meal, Gu Wan became familiar with the boys in the family.

She knew it, and it was no wonder that girls were favored in the Gu family, by her uncle, second uncle, and her father.

In perfect order, she gave birth to six boys, Gu Shan, Gu Hai, Gu Tian, ​​Gu Bin, Gu Shu and Gu Lin.

Only her biological father, Gu Laosan's wife, gave birth to a girl like her.

So in the past, Qin Shiman's life in the Gu family was actually not bad.

Gu Wan had read that period novel and remembered clearly that every time the heroine reminisced about the past, she would talk about the miserable life she had lived in the countryside.

She was often bullied by her grandparents, uncles, aunts and brothers who favored boys over girls. What was going on? It turned out that Qin Shiman was lying.

Humph, Gu Wan has decided that next time she goes back, she will definitely give Qin Shiman a lesson!

The milk powder was given to the eldest sister-in-law, and as for the White Rabbit milk candies, Old Mrs. Gu was in charge. The six boys each had one, and Gu Wan got six.

Save the rest and eat it slowly.

Gu Wan peeled off a candy wrapper without hesitation, stuffed the snow-white candy into Old Lady Gu's mouth, and then fed Old Man Gu the candy in the same way.

Shi Guixiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Wanwan, grandma is old and doesn't like to eat sweets." This is similar to the lie "Mom only likes to eat fish heads and not fish meat". Gu Wan is no longer a three-year-old child and will not be easily fooled.

"It's okay, grandma, you'll like it if you eat more."

Then she fed her father another candy.

As for my uncle and aunt, and my second uncle and aunt, I'm sorry, Mr. Chicken likes to eat milk candy and I guess his parents "don't like it".

"Little clever ghost." Shi Guixiang scolded with a smile.

But I feel more relieved in my heart. My granddaughter is indeed the best. Now that Wanwan is back, this family will only get better and better.

Gu Wan's main purpose this time was to return to her biological parents' home, and she had her own opportunities, so food and drink were not a problem.

However, since we were sent to the countryside as educated youth, we certainly could not separate ourselves too much from the main group.

So after discussing and asking for advice from Gu Zhiqiang, she planned to report to the brigade headquarters the next day.

Because there were too many members of the Gu family, Gu Wan did not invite Luo Yutong to join them for dinner. He simply served a bowl of rice with potatoes, roast chicken, braised pork, and bok choy.

Gu Wan had already learned from her father that the three new male educated youth were staying together temporarily at the captain's house, while Luo Yutong and Zhou Weihong were staying together at the house of Zhang Li, the women's director.

Generally speaking, their two families are the only ones with better conditions in the Hongqi Brigade, as they have spacious rooms that can be vacated.

Because along the way, Zhou Weihong and Gu Wan seemed to be on bad terms, and they spoke in a sarcastic tone.

Anyway, he followed his own heart. Gu Wan didn't like Zhou Weihong and didn't intend to spoil her. They were all educated youth who went to the countryside together and no one owed anyone anything.

Gu Wan just called Luo Yutong out to talk, and reminded her that the meal was for her alone.

Luo Yutong's face didn't look very good at the time, and it was late and inconvenient to talk, so Gu Wan left in a hurry and only said that he would come with her to report to the brigade headquarters the next day.

When Qin Shiman left, she was so arrogant that she wanted to go back to be a rich lady. Naturally, she did not take with her the "junk" she used to eat, wear and live in the countryside.

As for toiletries and the like, Gu Wan can just boil them in water and use them.

Although she was in a hurry when she went to the countryside this time, she was lucky enough to pack two sets of the original owner's clothes, so she didn't have to worry about not having these things for the time being.

Early the next morning, Shi Guixiang prepared steamed buns made of two-grain flour, millet porridge and homemade pickles for Gu Wan.

Everyone else was eating mixed-grain steamed bread, but Gu Wan directly gave the two-grain steamed bread to his sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, you should eat better. Now is the time to take care of your health. The family shouldn't be so particular."

She even deliberately picked up the coarse-grain steamed bread and took a big bite, saying with a smile: "I just like to eat coarse grains."

Oh no, the smile froze on my face.

In later lives, Gu Wan had naturally eaten steamed buns made from mixed grains, but the one she had in her hand now could only be called a black steamed bun, which was completely different from the steamed buns she had eaten before.

It also contained wheat bran or something else, which was very rough and irritating to the throat, and Gu Wan couldn't swallow it at all.

Li Huihui was a generous person. She pushed the steamed bun made of two pieces of flour back to Gu Wan and took back the black steamed bun that was in her own name.

"Wanwan, you should eat this, really. I won't be polite with you. I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart that the child has milk powder to drink. Grandma knows that you are not used to the coarse grains we have here in the city, so I specially steamed the buns for you. Come and eat it."
