Chapter 23 Can’t Eat

 Gu Qing couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw his sister crying. How much injustice had her sister suffered in the Hou Mansion over the years.

I didn’t know before that in the past few days, a delicate little girl had been slapped on the wall, sent to prison, dragged to the stage and sold, what kind of punishment was this.

Gu Zhang touched Gu Fei's head, his eyes were a little moist, "It's all dad's fault. If dad hadn't been sick, he wouldn't have sold you."

“From now on, you don’t have to do anything at home, just think of it as daddy compensating you.”

“Also, from now on, if you want to get married, you can get married. If you don’t want to get married, your father will support you for the rest of your life.”

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Gu Fei cried even more sadly. Her father is so kind. She really wanted to take out the rice, flour and other delicious food in the space to improve the family's life, but she couldn't. She could only eat cornmeal pancakes. .

 “Woo woo woo” Poor me, I can only continue to eat cornmeal pancakes.

The father and son were crying happily in the room. Gu Erlang opened the door and came in, startled, "What's wrong? Does the girl's wound hurt again?"

Gu Fei raised his head and looked at him with tearful eyes, "No!"

"Why are you crying? Crying makes me feel panicked." Gu Erlang patted his chest.

Gu Qing wiped away her tears and looked at him sideways, "Why did you run in here?"

It's really annoying, you ruined the good atmosphere.

Gu Erlang understood the look in his eldest brother's eyes and felt aggrieved, "The meal is ready, Mom asked me to tell you to eat!"

Gu Fei sniffed and stretched out his hand, "Second brother, help me up."

Gu Erlang hurried over and helped Gu Fei get off the bed.

 The dining table has been set in the main room.

Gu Fei guessed wrong. The staple food was not cornmeal pancakes, but cornmeal batter.

There is only one pickle and one boiled wild vegetable on the table.

Gu Fei sat down with a frown on his face, I want to eat rice, I want to eat braised pork, woo woo woo.

Mrs. Chen felt a little embarrassed when she saw Gu Fei's face, "Good girl, these are the only things at home. There isn't even a drop of soup left from the chicken at noon. I'll ask your elder brother to cut some meat and come back tomorrow, mother." I’ll cook it for you alone.”

 Chen's words were generous, but her heart seemed to be bleeding.

The family has no money. Not only does it have no money, but the land has also been mortgaged. How will we live in the future?

 Gu Fei quickly smiled and said, "Mom, no need, these are very good. There is a drought this year and many families can't eat. It's good that our family can have food."

Ms. Chen nodded, "That's it, God, if not a drop of rain falls, this means no way for people to survive!"

Gu Fei picked up his own bowl of cornmeal batter, picked a chopstick and put it into his mouth, swallowing it with difficulty.

This corn flour is not as finely ground as later generations, and the coarse particles make your throat irritate when you swallow it.

 Gu Fei's throat has been raised in the Hou Mansion.

 In the Hou Mansion, even the servants do not eat this kind of food. They only eat white rice and white flour steamed buns, but there are no good dishes.

Gu Fei took a mouthful of cornmeal batter and a piece of pickle. It was a difficult meal.

Gu Zhang looked at his daughter and fell silent.

 I was bragging just now that I would raise my daughter all my life, but my daughter obviously can't eat such coarse food, and I, as a father, can't do anything about it.

He thought sullenly, he would have to go to the city with his daughter tomorrow and find some work no matter what. He had to work hard to earn money and support his family first.

After eating for a while, Gu Qing suddenly said: "I went to the city to buy food today, and the price has gone up again."

The whole family stopped using their chopsticks to look at him. Gu Qing sighed, "The price of food has been rising since spring. It has more than tripled now. I think it will rise even further!"
