"Could it be that Goudan's mother is a stepmother and you are a step-grandmother? Who would be reluctant to buy a pair of shoes or a ball for our own child?" He stretched his legs as he said this.

In fact, the group of people had already seen the plastic sandals worn by the Jiang family members.

I'm just too embarrassed to ask.

After all, they were cloth shoes.

"Look, except for Huaixi, we are afraid of hurting their toes, so the older ones all bought new shoes." Gu Lixia continued to speak.

Everyone was silent, and Goudan's grandmother said, "What a spendthrift woman."

Everyone tried to stop the fight, but Gu Lixia just sat there motionless. "If I don't wear it while I'm still alive, will I take it with me when I die? You're still dreaming of this when you're already dead?"

A group of children were not far away when Jiang Huaibei's thin voice suddenly rang out, "Brother, stop playing! Grandma Goudan is bullying Second Aunt. Go home and call Second Uncle."

As he spoke, Jiang Huaibei rushed towards Gu Lixia with his arms open. Gu Lixia put down his insoles and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Jiang Huaibei's face.

"return."

He called out to Jiang Huainan, unscrewed Brother Jiang's military water bottle and gave Jiang Huaibei a sip of water, then said, "It's okay, Second Aunt is fine. Look, everyone just talked and didn't do anything."

He hugged Jiang Huaixi, who was about to cry, and fed him some saliva to stop him from crying.

Then he continued, "Second Aunt learned the few moves that Dad taught her from Second Uncle. Second Aunt won't use force easily. If you hurt someone, you'll have to pay for it. It's okay, go have fun. Huainan, come over and have a drink too."

None of the children moved, and they all looked at Goudan and his grandmother.

Goudan felt ashamed, so he ran away crying and went home.

Grandma Goudan also went with her grandson.

The group quieted down and the children started playing again.

Jiang Huaibei and Jiang Huaixi didn't go out to play, and sat down next to Gu Lixia.

Gu Lixia took a look and didn't look sleepy.

So I started telling the two children a story, "Xiaojun and Xiaofeng are good friends. One day, Xiaojun took a new eraser to school, but when he got home, he found it was gone. The next day, Xiaofeng was so happy to show him his new eraser, but Xiaojun got angry and said he would never play with Xiaofeng again and that they were no longer good friends."

Jiang Huaibei has excellent logical thinking. "But Xiaofeng might have bought a new eraser."

Gu Lixia said slowly, "Yes, Xiaofeng bought a new eraser, and Xiaojun's eraser was picked up by the monitor and handed to the teacher. The teacher will ask who dropped the eraser as soon as the class starts."

"Have they reconciled?" Jiang Huaibei asked anxiously.

How could Gu Lixia let the child down? "Of course we reconciled. Xiaojun apologized on his own initiative. When the teacher asked, he realized what was happening. That's how children are. Sometimes they're fine, sometimes they're not. Just like the weather in June, sometimes sunny, sometimes cloudy."

As expected, Jiang Huaibei smiled and said, "Then I'll go and apologize to Brother Goudan too."

After saying that, he got up and ran.

Gu Lixia gave him a tug and asked, "What's Brother Goudan's other name?"

Jiang Huaibei didn't understand, "Just Brother Goudan! I've always called him that."

Gu Lixia spoke again, "If we call you baby or darling, it's to show affection. Calling you Jiang Huaibei shows respect. My second uncle and I call Aunt Xiu'er to show closeness. If people call you Donkey Egg from today on, would you be happy?"

"If I'm not happy, then Second Aunt, please call me by my nickname. I don't seem to have one. Or just call me baby." Jiang Huaibei instantly turned into a naive person. "What's my brother's full name?"

"I don't know either. I have to ask the aunt here." Gu Lixia said and looked at the group of people around her.

Some people still know him, "Wang Ze, the one with three water drops."

"I heard you. If you want to call Brother Wang Ze, go ahead. Go to Brother Wang Ze's house and call him out to play. Let him bring the ball."

In a flash, all the children left.

Jiang Huaixi pulled Gu Lixia's sleeve and said, "Brother is the baby, what about me?"

Gu Lixia was very patient. "Your nickname was chosen by your parents. We have no right to do so. We can only call you Huaixi."

"No, you take it." Jiang Huaixi refused domineeringly.

"Huaixi, your aunt bought you a watermelon this year. How about it? Do you like it?" Gu Lixia thought for a moment and changed the subject.

"Okay, when?" Jiang Huaixi knew watermelon. His brother said it was delicious.

"Wait until it's sold in grocery stores." Gu Lixia cooperated again.

"Look, my brother is coming." Gu Lixia pointed to a group of children, including Wang Ze.

Jiang Huaixi was too lazy to move, so he waved to his brother. Sure enough, Jiang Huaibei came over soon. "Second Aunt, as soon as I apologized, Brother Wang Ze stopped crying, and we came out. What's wrong with Huaixi waving?"

"Brother, do you like your nickname?" Jiang Huaixi asked sincerely.

Jiang Huaibei looked at Gu Lixia.

Gu Lixia explained, "Huaixi wanted a nickname, and I thought you wanted one too. But after you grew up and started school, you didn't call me by my nickname much anymore."

Jiang Huaibei accepted it well. "That's fine. I'm a big kid now, so I'll just call him by his name. The baby is a younger brother or sister who can't walk. What will he be called when he has a younger brother or sister in the future?"

"I don't know. We'll see when the time comes." Gu Lixia didn't know why the child's thoughts jumped so much, but she still answered.

Jiang Huaibei pulled Jiang Huaixi in to join in the game of passing the buck.

Gu Lixia picked up the insole and continued sewing.

The group of adults quieted down, and Gu Lixia's image became taller among them. It turned out that this is how intellectuals educate their children.

If only they had finished it in one go.

After taking care of the child until 11 o'clock, Gu Lixia went home to cook, letting Jiang Xiu take a break and come out to look after the child.

Let the system customize an ordinary box that is exactly the same size as the cellar entrance.

No bottom.

It doesn't need to be too high. About an inch is fine.

The lid can be lifted directly, because we will go down to the cellar directly from here. This box is a cover.

Keep it locked at ordinary times and unlock it only when needed.

Gu Lixia mixed white flour and cornmeal, rolled out noodles, lit a fire, and prepared the sauce with potatoes, tomatoes, and green peppers.

Let Jiang Wen out of the space, call the children, and have dinner.

After dinner, Jiang Huainan asked the brothers Yang Lin and Yang Sen to come and get the tools and materials that had been prepared first, including scrapers, plaster powder, carpentry brooms and brushes.

Yang Lin mixed gypsum powder and water together and stirred it into a paste, which should not be too thin or too thick.

Yang Sen and Jiang Wen used a scraper to scoop a certain amount of plaster from the prepared white plaster, applied it on the cement wall, pressed it down appropriately, and scraped it evenly with force until the wall surface was covered neatly and flatly without any bulges or depressions.

The hair scraped by Jiang Wen was not beautiful enough, and the Yang brothers looked down on it.

So Jiang Wen and Jiang Huainan were driven out to make plaster.

Send plaster.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Wen rode his bike and took Gu Lixia back to the village.
