Chapter 29 Housework
When it was dark, Guo Zisu received a message from Liang Shi and entrusted her to cook dinner for Uncle Gu.

She thought about telling Uncle Gu about the reporter Wang's interview, and left directly after dinner in the school cafeteria.

Walking out of the cafeteria, Guo Zisu saw Xia Lian walking towards her at a glance.

Xia Lian also saw her, called her joyfully, and ran over in three steps.

She took out a few pieces of change from her pocket, and said, "This is left over from the last time you entrusted me with an errand, and I haven't had time to come over to give it to you."

Guo Zisu smiled and said that you are still thinking about it, so I will pay you the fare.

"That can't be done. You are doing good things for others. I feel guilty that I didn't pay for it. Why do you ask you to charge the fare?" She said and forced it into Guo Zisu's hand.

Seeing that she didn't intend to leave, Guo Zisu guessed that she might be looking for Li Yimin, so she said, "I have to go to Uncle Bone's house, you can go to our cafeteria to play, the principal and other teachers are here."

Xia Lian's eyes glowed again, and she asked with a smile, "Are you looking for Mr. Liang?"

"No, he's gone to the county, and he may not come back tonight. I'll cook for Uncle Bone."

Guo Zisu hurried to Uncle Gu's house, and saw that the uncle was leaning on the bed frame and listening to the radio. The radio was old and the effect was poor, and there was a constant buzzing noise from it.I thought, Liang Shi is an electronics student, and when he comes back, I will remind him to repair the radio for Mr. Gu.

Guo Zisu poured a cup of tea and handed it to Uncle Gu, and asked, "Master, what would you like to eat tonight?"

Uncle Bone rolled his eyeballs, smacked it, and asked strangely: "Why are you here to cook? What is that kid up to?"

"He has gone to the county seat. Grandpa, I have been helping my mother cook at home since I was a child, and my skills are not bad." Guo Zisu walked to the kitchen as he said that.

Uncle Bone laughed: "Okay, I'll wait to taste your good craftsmanship."

Although Liang Shi is a boy from the city, he is good at housework.Guo Zisu saw that Uncle Gu's kitchen was clean and tidy, and the firewood pile in front of the stove was also neatly arranged, so he couldn't help but praise Liang Shilai in his heart.

While washing the rice and cooking it, she chopped some finely minced meat and shredded radish, and decided to make a stir-fried radish with shredded pork, and then a vegetable and egg soup, which was almost the same.

The dishes were ready quickly, but the rice was not yet cooked.Uncle Gu’s family cooks and stir-fries in a big iron pot.Guo Zisu found a long and big bamboo broom and started to clean the front and back of Uncle Gu's house.

She first swept the firewood drying on the flat in front of the house into a pile, and then hugged it in little by little.Uncle Gu yelled in the room: "Teacher Guo, don't stain your clothes. Help me tidy up when Mr. Liang comes back."

Guo Zisu replied while continuing to do her own work.

After all the firewood was put into the stove house, she cleaned the ground and steps, and then swept along the eaves to the back of the house.

The back of the house may not have been swept for a long time, and it is full of messy withered grass and fallen leaves.Guo Zisu scanned and found a large piece of mature soil behind the house, planted with some rare trees, grasses, and flowering branches.The mellow soil where these flowers and trees are located is very neatly arranged. Plastic-wrapped cardboard is hung on the root or branch of each plant. On the cardboard, its name, planting date, and function are neatly written on the cardboard. .Those characters are ugly, like chicken claws.Guo Zisu thought, this must be Uncle Gu's handwriting.

Looking around, she found that this piece of land was much more refreshing and pleasing than Uncle Bone's room, and it seemed that it was often carefully cared for.Secretly said: What a caring person, so many Chinese herbal medicines seem to be his favorite.

She gently swept the dead grass and fallen leaves into small piles, held them with her hands, and sprinkled them on the roots of the Chinese medicinal materials.

Uncle Gu was listening to the radio on the bed, watching Guo Zisu busy in front of and behind the house, full of suspicion, wondering what's wrong with this girl, she even cleaned the front and back of the house for me, as if someone was coming to a blind date.But how can my old waste have such great blessings?Isn't she busy for nothing?No, you don't usually see her so busy here?What happened today?Liang Shi didn't come either.

Uncle Bone rolled his eyes more than a dozen times quickly, and wanted to ask something, but he didn't want the boss to yell loudly.But seeing Guo Zisu cleaning the medicinal field, he let go of his throat and shouted: "Mr. Guo, don't clean it too clean, lest those thieves who need it will be embarrassed to put their feet in."

Guo Zisu laughed when he heard this. It turned out that he put a label on these medicinal materials so that thieves could steal them, haha!After seeing that everything was clean, I put down the broom and went to the kitchen to cook.

When Uncle Bone waited for her to bring the food, he stopped her and said cautiously: "Ms. Guo, that kid would tell me when he went to the county. Why did he leave without a word today? There won't be any What's the matter?"

Guo Zisu smiled sweetly and said, "It's okay, his girlfriend is here, and there happened to be a tractor truck going to the county. I was in a hurry, so I didn't have time to tell you."

"Oh," Uncle Bone nodded thoughtfully: "I said so. You helped me clean the front and back of the house so clean, so it was his girlfriend who came." Uncle Bone smiled like a big chrysanthemum, He gave Guo Zisu a thumbs up and repeatedly praised: "Thank you, Teacher Guo."

Guo Zisu filled the food and handed it to Uncle Bone, put another bowl of soup on the table beside his bed, and said with a smile, "Sir, don't praise me, I don't clean up to welcome her."

Uncle Bone stretched out his chopsticks, took a few big mouthfuls of rice, picked up the soup bowl and gulped down half of it, then raised his head, stared at his eyes and asked, "Then what are you doing for it?"

"Guess!" Guo Zisu said mischievously, and even whistled.

Uncle Bone didn't make a sound, he buried his head in his meal and drank the soup, then handed her an empty bowl and said, "Your skills are much better than that kid, come, fill another bowl for Uncle."

Guo Zisu thought to himself, the uncle still refuses to guess.She served the food, and when she handed it over, she smiled and said, "Master, you know you can't guess it, right? Let me tell you, reporter Wang from the county TV station is coming to interview you."

ah?The uncle almost dropped the rice bowl in his hand by accident.He was slightly taken aback, shook his head, and said: "People nowadays think that I have healed and saved people for decades, and there are people who have come to see me even from other provinces, but they are not famous. I cured a secretary, and I will be as popular as the sunset."

Guo Zisu laughed loudly: "Grandpa, maybe you can be more popular than big red flowers. Haha."

Uncle Bone stopped his chopsticks, with a look of helplessness in his eyes, and said softly: "The old waste is also a broken red toilet shard, useless. I only hope that Liang Gong can learn this skill with peace of mind, and do his best to help the poor Earn some fame." Uncle Bone raised his voice and said with a smile: "Let the reporter interview him, and his girlfriend just happened to be here too, so let him show his face."

Guo Zisu was deeply moved by Uncle Gu's heartfelt words, full of expectations and love for Liang Shi, and couldn't help feeling a little moved in his heart.

She smiled and said, "Master, Liang Shi would be so happy if he knew your thoughts. However, don't keep saying that you are useless. You are going to be on TV. This kind appearance makes people feel warm."

Uncle Bone laughed heartily, put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and said, "Teacher Guo is a scholar after all, and his words seem to be smeared with honey. Haha, help me take out the bottle of winter honey in the cabinet." Wipe it clean, it was brought back to me by a man who had healed a broken leg from another place, the kid will bring his girlfriend later, the uncle has to send something away."

While wiping the bottle filled with sweet honey, Guo Zisu said flatly, "Master, Mr. Liang's girlfriend has returned to the county seat."

"Back to the county seat? So soon?" Uncle Gu's eyes widened, with a hint of disappointment on his face.

"Well, she's a nurse, and she's very particular. She couldn't get used to the old house in the country, so she went back to the city."

It turned out that this is the case, Uncle Bone understood something, and said while thinking: "It seems that I have to teach him all my tricks quickly, so that he can go back early. It's not good that the two of them are not together all the time."

Guo Zisu raised his eyes to look at Uncle Gu who was contemplating, thought for a while, and said, "Master, Liang Gong's girlfriend wants him to study dentistry with her uncle. She thinks dentistry has a bright future."

Well?A dark cloud quickly passed over Uncle Bone's face, but he immediately dispelled the black cloud with a smile, and said confidently: "Mr. The old Chinese doctor who picked herbs passed it down to me, and it was his family’s technique passed down from generation to generation. Later, after reading books, asking for advice, and carefully pondering, I have my own unique method, which can not only heal tendons and bones, It is also feasible to extend the short bones. I don't believe that Liang Gong will have no future after learning it."

Seeing the excited look on the uncle's face, Guo Zisu said, "Master, Liang Gong has a bright future even if he doesn't study medicine, so you don't have to worry about it, just let him do it."

Uncle Bone nodded, pondered for a while, and said: "Although I said so, everything in the world has a cause and effect, and it's not that I, an old waste, want to force others to make things difficult."

Guo Zisu stopped talking when he heard the word "karma".Seeing that it was getting late, he prepared to help Uncle Gu to lie down.Uncle Bone waved his hands hastily, shook his head again and again, and said, "Just close the doors and windows for me. I want to sit down for a while."

At this moment, Li Yimin and Xia Lian came.

As soon as Xia Lian entered the door, she said loudly, "Master Bone, what do you think we are doing here?"

Uncle Gu rolled his eyes a few times, pouted his lips fiercely, and asked solemnly: "Ms. Li's pork head meat is very fragrant?"

Guo Zisu looked at it strangely, but didn't understand the meaning of Uncle Gu's words.She turned her head to look at Li Yimin and Xia Lian again, and saw that they both looked uncomfortable, so she realized it.

But Xia Lian approached the bed, stretched out her long legs with leather boots and kicked the foot of Uncle Bone's bed vigorously, and Uncle Bone groaned exaggeratedly.

Li Yimin blushed, approached, and said: "Master, I heard from Xia Lian that Liang Gong is not at home, and I thought that a girl like Mr. Guo could move your legs, so I came to see you."

A smile appeared on Uncle Bone's face, he stroked his beard and said, "It's just in time, I'm worried that I'm going to dream with my eyelids open tonight." Then he leaned over and asked Li Yimin to hold his leg, Guo Zisu and Xia Lian hugged one arm each and made him lie down.

The three young men got up and left. When they walked outside the door, Uncle Bone called Li Yimin loudly again.

Li Yimin answered, pushed the door and went in, Uncle Gu waved his hand, and said softly: "Li Yimin, you are not too young, you have met a suitable person, you have to be quick, don't be like Uncle Gu, if you miss the opportunity, the opportunity will come again Not coming either."

After Uncle Bone finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes and turned his head.

Li Yimin hesitated for a while, and said, "Master, I will remember your words. I will come to see you tomorrow morning."

Uncle Gu waited for Li Yimin to walk to the door, and said, "Please invite me for a drink!"
