I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman

Chapter 136 The Difficulty of Pregnancy

"Mother! Mother."

Zhao Qiqi put down the dish in her hand, put it on the table, then looked at Gu Zhaoyun.

"Where have you been? Why are you back so late?"

This is not a common situation, so it would be better for Zhao Qiqi to clarify the matter.

"Mom, I met a very powerful person today!"

"Oh, how amazing is that?"

Zhao Qiqi was infected by the expression on Gu Zhaoyun's face and asked with interest.

"Today, an old lady came to our school. She can read and write, paint and compose poems. It seems that she is even better than Master He! She even taught us the class this afternoon. She told us many interesting things. We were reluctant to leave, so we came back late."

So that's how it is, but I don't know who invited this woman.

"Why didn't I see it?"

Gu Yanyi was looking at the mapo tofu and the fried mushrooms on the table, while asking Gu Zhaoyun questions.

"This is the teacher that Master Qu specially invited to teach us girls. Of course you can't see him." Gu Zhaoyun looked arrogant and made faces at Gu Yanyi.

He hummed a few words, not angry, and looked at Zhao Qiqi eagerly: "Mom, let's eat quickly."

Everyone was waiting for Gu Zhaoyun to come back before eating. Gu Yanyi, who had followed Gu Yantang and Gu Dazhu up the mountain to chop trees, was exhausted. Anything he ate would taste delicious, especially these fried mushrooms.

But he was a little confused. Aren't mushrooms usually used to make soup? Would they taste good if fried like this?

Of course he did not doubt Zhao Qiqi's cooking skills, but the chicken and mushroom soup was already very delicious, and he was looking forward to his mother's cooking.

"Let's eat."

Everyone was given a certain amount of food, and Zhao Qiqi specifically instructed: "Don't get the fried mushrooms wet, they taste better when they are crispy."

Drain the moisture from the mushrooms, coat them with some flour, starch, five-spice powder and eggs, and mix them evenly. Note: if you are afraid of oil leakage, use salt to kill the moisture, control the moisture to the minimum, put the mushrooms in the pan when the oil temperature is about 50%, when the oil is almost hot and small bubbles appear, put the mushrooms in and fry them. Take them out after they change color. After all are fried together, increase the oil temperature and put the fried mushrooms in to fry. This will make the fried mushrooms more crispy and delicious, and will not be greasy to eat.

Finally, sprinkle your favorite dipping sauce, such as chili powder, pepper salt powder, and cumin powder. According to your own taste, Zhao Qiqi sprinkled pepper salt powder and then sprinkled some cooked sesame seeds. It tastes crispy and delicious without being greasy.

As expected, Gu Yanyi looked at Zhao Qiqi in disbelief, and said seriously, word by word: "Mom, this is my favorite food in my life."

Zhao Qiqi was amused: "You little brat, how old are you? Are you so sure?"

She thought that Gu Yanyi must have never tasted other modern delicacies. If she cooked them for him, he would have to change his mind again and again about this food that he loved most in his life.

"Mom, I've decided on this. This is my favorite food in my life."

I'm ashamed. He talks like he's marrying a wife. Everyone else has chosen their own person, but this silly boy chose fried mushrooms.

"Okay, okay, okay. After you finish eating, take a rest and then go to bed. You have a small test tomorrow." Zhao Qiqi was also eating very happily and responded to him perfunctorily.

This was the first exam the children had taken after one or two months of study, and the questions were again set by Master Qu. Zhao Qiqi guessed that Master Qu decided to teach a few more children.

Now that everyone has studied for a while and has some basics, it is no good for Mr. Qu to teach only Yan Yan. If he recruits a few more people with good comprehension, diligence and willingness to learn, and educates them well, it will also be a good deed.

Look, this kid looks nonchalant on the surface, but as soon as Zhao Qiqi mentioned this matter, his facial expression changed.

Gu Yanyan's bitter expression made everyone laugh.

"Okay, after dinner, follow me to the table outside to study for a while. If there is anything you don't understand, I can help you." Seeing how nervous he was, Gu Yanyan spoke to comfort him.

Although it is a last-minute effort, it is better than doing nothing. I don't expect him to be completely transformed in one day, but at least it will give him some psychological comfort.

"Why, Third Brother, did the teacher tell you the question, and you want to teach me?"

Zhao Qiqi's hand fell on his forehead, and a crisp sound came from his forehead.

Being hit unexpectedly, Gu Yanyi hissed and looked at Zhao Qiqi aggrievedly: "Mom, I was just joking with my third brother."

"Yan Yi, this kind of thing is sensitive. If someone with ulterior motives hears it and spreads it, if you do well in the exam, people will say that you knew the questions in advance. You will be unable to defend yourself then."

Gu Yanyi nodded dejectedly. Among so many people, he was the only one who was extremely nervous. Even Gu Xiaowu was very calm.

After the children finished their meal, they lit candles on the table outside and started a makeshift fire.

The next morning, they went to school with big dark circles under their eyes and yawning.

"Yan Sui, don't go to town today. Go to the village and ask around for the whereabouts of the miracle doctor that the pharmacy owner mentioned. If he's not in Gujia Village, go to Zhaojia Village."

"Okay, Mom." Then he left.

Zhao Qiqi was busy for some hours and then went to see Hu Lan.

She is already four months pregnant. She has not been able to eat these days. Her belly has grown bigger, but she has become thinner.

The morning sickness reaction was also very obvious. Zhao Qiqi wanted to take her to town but failed. She felt very uncomfortable, so she went to the pharmacy to get some medicine and boil some decoction to relieve the pain.

"Mom, I'm fine, you can go and do your work."

Mother has been very busy these days, and Hu Lan dared not bother her with such a small matter.

Seeing that she was feeling better, Zhao Qiqi nodded and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me. There are many people outside. I'll have someone make you some porridge later. You can eat as much as you can."

Hu Lan nodded. Even if she couldn't eat it, she had to eat it for the sake of the baby in her belly.

Seeing Zhao Qiqi go out, Hu Lan picked up the embroidery cloth beside the bed and continued embroidering. It was really uncomfortable, but it would be even more uncomfortable if she was asked to do nothing.

After a while, Gu Xiaocao came in with porridge. She didn't like reading and couldn't sit still, so she stopped reading after a few days. Xiang was a little dissatisfied, but she couldn't persuade her.

Suddenly, Hu Lan couldn't help it, so she quickly stood up and spit out the porridge in her mouth. Her face turned pale, and she breathed in and out slowly, weakly, trying to recover from the strength she had experienced recently.

Gu Xiaocao was stunned. Is it so difficult for a woman to get pregnant?

Xiang heard the noise and guessed what happened. She came in from the door and pushed Gu Xiaocao aside. "You stupid girl, your sister-in-law is in such a state, but you are still standing there stupidly. You only know how to carry this bowl of porridge. Why don't you bring a bowl of water?"

Xiang rolled her eyes at her in annoyance and handed the water to Hu Lan's mouth. Her morning sickness was most severe when she was pregnant with Gu Xiaocao. Now seeing Hu Lan like this, Gu Xiaocao had no reaction at all and became angry for no reason.

Hu Lan drank some water first before she had the energy to thank him. She waved her hand and said, "Xiaocao is young, so it's normal for her not to understand these things."

"But it's true. I think your reaction is too big. It's even bigger than when I was pregnant with Xiaocao."

Xiang was a woman who had just given birth, and seeing her vomiting like this must have been very painful.

"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine."

"Why don't you see a doctor?" Gu Xiaocao asked suddenly.
