Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife - Chapter 230
Chapter 230: Li Family’s Misfortune
Gu Yundong frowned, feeling that there was nothing wrong with what his wife said, but Gu Yundong’s attitude towards his sister Gu Yunshuang was very firm.
“If my younger sister wants to get married, then we will all agree. If she doesn’t find the right one, let her stay at home. We were away all year round and could not take care of the two elderly at home. How can we be relieved if my fourth brother is not at home?
“Little Sister can help take care of the two elderly at home. I don’t see anything bad with that!”
Zhou Ping looked at her husband’s expression and pursed her lips. After that, she did not say anything else.
The four children of the Gu family were all at home. Gu Qingyao cooked more delicious food for them. There were many people in the family, and she did not show off what she had.
Dad and her grandparents knew about her situation, but these uncles, aunts, brothers did not know. Gu Qingyao did not intend to explain to them.
And her dad and grandparents also did not plan to tell them. So, she was trying to keep a low profile.
But even so, the food was still very good for the family.
Tonight, they ate dried sweet potato porridge. Some rice and dried sweet potato were added to the porridge. That was their main food.
The side dishes were pickled beans, cabbage and spicy paste.
Gu Qingyao made a lot of the spicy paste. It had beans and radish inside. One bowl of the paste could be eaten for a few meals.
All of them shared the three dishes.
They ate early, and there was still a long time in the evening. So Gu Qingyao prepared more for the children.
She prepared a few more cooked sweet potatoes.
Some small sweet potatoes that were not good in appearance were cleaned and placed in a crock-pot and cooked with water.
The boiled sweet potatoes were soft and they were filled with sugar water. Children liked to eat them.
The portion of the meal was still quite adequate. Such conditions were at least much better than many farmers, and even better than the environment in the provincial capital that Gu Yundong stayed in the past.
Zhou Ping ate the food in front of her, looking at the children who were eating. She then thought about Gu Yunshuang who was eating alone in the house now.
She knew that Gu Yunshuang ate noodles with chicken soup tonight, which Wen Ruyu made for her personally.
She saw Gu Yunshuang’s food for a few days at home during this period, and Old Master had been dispensing her medicines to help her recover.
Even if she had never studied medicine, she knew that they were tonics.
In addition to these, all her meals were fine grains. In the past few days at home, Gu Yunshuang had not eaten more than three meals of coarse grains.
There were not only fine grains, but also meat every day.
Chicken broth, fish broth, bone broth…
In these years, it was a blessing to have enough food during confinement. Many women had to work in the fields before they gave birth, and the children were born in the fields. They continued to work after they gave birth.
No one would be taken care of like Gu Yunshuang.
The children did not even get to eat those nice food.
Li Fangting also gained a lot of weight recently. She appeared stronger and healthier. She was nourished with good food.
Zhou Ping pursed her lips and continued with her food.
After dinner, the children went to the sundries room to stay beside the fire. Gu Chonghua was in the room with his uncle Gu Yunjing and his elder brother Gu Jinye to discuss some things. Gu Yunshen was also there.
They were going to leave soon, so they had to settle everything at home.
At first, Gu Yundong was also there. After talking for a while, he came back. They were packing their luggage here, and immediately after the Lantern Festival, they would return to the provincial city.
