Gu Xiuxiu stood at the door waiting for the three children to come back. When she saw them, she said, "Now that we are back, the food has been heated for you."

She didn't eat it herself, and the children also wanted to wait for them to come back to eat together.

After tasting Gu Xiuxiu's cooking, Gu Mingdong gave a thumbs up: "It's delicious. Auntie's cooking is really good."

Gu Xiuxiu happily brought him some food: "If it's delicious, eat more. When you were a kid, you loved eating the pickled vegetable stew made by your aunt."

When they were almost done eating, Gu Xiuxiu asked, "What happened just now? What happened to Xiaohua?"

Bai Xiaohua often came to play at home, and Gu Xiuxiu still remembered her.

Sun Shumei pursed her lips and said nothing. Gu Mingdong interrupted and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just a quarrel among the folks in the village."

Gu Xiuxiu sighed: "Children today are really ignorant. Those who are older than the New Year cannot tolerate anything."

After finishing the meal, Gu Sanmei and Gu Simei refused to let their aunt do anything anymore, and hurriedly put away the dishes and chopsticks. Sun Shumei also followed to help.

Gu Xiuxiu was finally willing to take a break, sat on the small bench at the door, and said, "A Dong, seeing you stand up, my younger brothers and sisters in the family are also sensible, and my aunt will feel relieved."

Before coming, she was worried, but now she felt at ease.

"It's such a pity Lijuan..." Gu Xiuxiu couldn't help but sigh when mentioning her dead niece-in-law.

She glanced at the twins who were playing wildly with Sun Qiang in the yard, and whispered: "I heard from Xiao Xi that you rejected the matchmaker. That's fine. Your two sons are still young, and it hasn't been a year since Lijuan passed away. This is There's no rush."

"When Ah Xing and Ah Chen grow up and understand what's going on, it will be time for Xiao Xi and Xiao Bei to go out. It won't be too late to look for him then."

Gu Mingdong just said: "Gu, I really don't plan to look for you anymore."

Gu Xiuxiu frowned and thought, "How can you stop looking for me at such a young age? You can't stay single for the rest of your life."

But when she thought about her nephew-in-law, who had only been away for less than a year, she swallowed her words and just said, "It's up to you."

The future will be discussed in the future, why should she say it after this to make people unhappy.

Gu Mingdong was afraid that she would mention this matter again, so he asked instead: "Gu, I heard from my cousin and Shumei that our town has also mobilized to go to the countryside?"

When mentioning this matter, Gu Xiuxiu was really worried and whispered: "Now it is just mobilization, not mandatory, but who can say for sure about this matter, I just hope it will be over by talking."

Gu Mingdong was not so optimistic: "I heard people said that big cities started sending people to the countryside in batches last year. I'm afraid it won't go away and will only get worse."

Gu Xiuxiu sighed: "I'll go to your third uncle's house later and ask him if he has any news. If this is true, I'm wondering if I can find a way to get Shumei to come to Shanghe Village. Brigade."

Gu Mingdong felt his eyelids twitching.

Gu Xiuxiu continued: "Each family can only leave one child at most. Your uncle and I really have no choice. There are only so many jobs in the town and we can't find a place for your cousin to work."
