On the day of the divorce, he was carried home by the rough man's son-in-law

Chapter 85 Who is born to work hard?

Gu Chuxiao had already stepped on the cloth shoes and stood in front of the chopping board to cut ginger: "I promised you that I will treat you well."

He didn't wipe his feet, and the drops of water soon soaked his cloth shoes.

Gu Chuxiao shrank her toes and cut two slices for herself.

"All right."

"Huh?" Lu Fuer looked at the shredded ginger in the basin and laughed, "Why did you cut the shredded ginger?"

"I think this way can stimulate the medicinal effect of ginger. I want to chop it into a puree. I'm afraid you won't be able to fish it, so I will cut it into shreds for you."

Gu Chuxiao put his feet back into the basin again, and was a little proud when talking about this.

I always feel that I am very, very smart and have a wink.

Lu Fuer smiled and said nothing. After the water was almost cold, she washed the socks.

Then he ran to Zhou Yulan's room and took out the finished cloth shoes.

Originally, she planned to show Gu Chuxiao the shoes tomorrow morning to surprise him.

But when they were sitting together soaking their feet and chatting, she couldn't help but want to take out the shoes to surprise him.

When he returned to the room, Gu Chuxiao was still busy in the kitchen and didn't know what he was doing.

Lu Fuer didn't urge him, and thought about where to hide the shoes in the room to surprise him.

The shoes are clean after all, she, Lu Fuer, can put them anywhere.

After thinking again and again, she pulled the quilt away and hid the shoes under the quilt.

This not only ensures the exposure rate, but also guarantees 100% surprises.

After hiding her shoes, she hurriedly pretended to be her usual self, took off her shoes and climbed onto the kang.

Gu Chuxiao basically doesn't need her to control his studies. He has a strong sense of self-management, and he can already study by himself. Only when he can't figure out the content will he come to her for help.

Lu Fuer was happy to be at leisure, without worrying about his studies, and would have more time to chat with Zhou Yulan every night, and listen to her tell some short stories from all over the world.

Sometimes she comes to nature, and she will tell Lu Fuer the ghost stories in "Liao Zhai".

In Lu Fuer's eyes, Zhou Yulan is as likable as a storyteller, she is good at telling stories.

"What are you thinking? I called you several times and you ignored me."

Gu Chuxiao's dissatisfied voice came, and she came back to her senses: "I miss the ghost story my mother just told me."

"A ghost story in the village?"

"What do you mean by that, there are ghost stories in the village?"

Lu Fuer's complexion changed instantly. When she was young, she often read the magazine "Story Club", and there were many strange tales in the country.

In her subconscious mind, this sentence was combined with the stories she had seen before, sending a gloomy chill down her back.

Seeing her like this, Gu Chuxiao thought she was interested, cleared her throat and began to talk: "I also heard it from the villagers, anyway, I haven't seen it before, Zhang Mazi from the south of the village said that at that time the whole village Everyone was so scared by him that they didn't even dare to go out at night."

"Is it that scary?"

Lu Fuer's curiosity had suppressed her fear. Anyway, Gu Chuxiao is a living person here, and he is full of male hormones. When ghosts come, they will praise him for his yang energy.

Thinking about it this way puts me at ease a lot.

Gu Chuxiao was originally worried about the darkness and didn't want to say anything, but she couldn't help Lu Fuer's expectant eyes, and after hesitating for two seconds, she said, "Zhang Mazi's family is a coffin shop, because many things are taboo in this line of work, so every day Be very careful every time you work.”

"There has always been a tradition among the old men and women in the village, that is, to order the coffin while they are still alive, so that they don't have to worry so much when they die. Once, Zhang Mazi received work from the next village and said that an old man was not in good health. Well, it can be said that it was just a few days ago.”

"The family was in a hurry to make a coffin for him, so they found Zhang Mazi with good craftsmanship and good reputation. Zhang Mazi didn't want to take this order at first. They knew a little bit about those things in this line of work. Anyway, they saw that it was not good at the time, so they went I don't want to take this order."

Gu Chuxiao saw that she listened very seriously, and saw that she was interested in this kind of thing. When telling this story, he thought about the next ghost story, and told her tonight.

"The old man was very angry at the time, and he died of anger in the coffin shop of Zhang Mazi's house. The family members of the old man blamed Zhang Mazi for making his father angry. Later, Zhang Mazi paid for the coffin and money, and paid for the old man. Go to the funeral."

"I thought this incident would be over, but I didn't expect that people would often cough when he was alone in his coffin shop, which was exactly the same as the old man's coughing sound before he died."

The story came to an abrupt end here, Gu Chuxiao pursed her lips, and looked at Lu Fuer intently: "At that time, he thought it was a hallucination, and he specially hired someone who didn't know to help guard the store, and that person heard it too. With the sound of coughing, the incident spread throughout the village, and many people were frightened at the time."

"It does sound scary, but it's more or less an unwarranted disaster."

Zhang Mazi was doing well in opening his own shop, but he suffered this innocent disaster just because he refused customers.

It sounds really sad.

Gu Chuxiao smiled: "It was later known that it was a neighbor's duck. I don't know why it likes to call it that way. There is no ghost in this story."

"Ah, it turned out to be an oolong."

Lu Fu'er was a little dumbfounded, she was still summing up, but couldn't say anything all of a sudden.

Is this okay?

"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth."

Gu Chuxiao didn't want to tease her anymore, so he might as well scare her with a big one.

"Forget it, I dare not listen."

Lu Fuer hurriedly shouted to stop, shaking her head in fear to show her resistance.

After listening to it, I still feel that the logic is illogical. After all, no matter how weird the duck is, it won't call like that.

It's a bit of a forcible twist on the ending.

Seeing that she was really resistant, Gu Chuxiao hurriedly threw away the manuscript he had typed. She didn't like to hear it, and he wouldn't even jump a word.

"If you're scared, can I tell you a joke?"

"Forget it, let's go to bed quickly."

"Ok."

The kerosene lamp was crackling, Gu Chuxiao helped Lu Fuer tuck up the quilt, and then propped himself up with his long arms, and blew out the kerosene lamp.

"Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the village chief to discuss building a house, so don't go, just cook for us at home."

"Okay, but I'm really a little embarrassed. You all go to do heavy work, and I hide at home and be lazy."

Lu Fuer was a little embarrassed. After all, everyone in the family had their own tasks, and she was the only one who did the cooking.

Compared with their physical strength, she can be called a blessing.

"You can't earn a few work points in the field, so you might as well stay at home. You haven't worked much since you were a child, and now we can't do this kind of thing if you have to go to the field."

Gu Chuxiao hugged her in his arms: "When you can enjoy happiness, you should lie down quickly, or are you born to work hard?"
