Chapter 226 Popcorn Fiasco

Wow— An An had never heard this voice, and her small body was so frightened that she cried out, her tears dripping on her eyelashes like dewdrops in the morning.

Gu Chunzhu was both distressed and funny, so he went over to hug An An's little head and coaxed: Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is the sound of corn kernels popping in the pot, otherwise it's called popcorn!

Afraid! An An was still afraid, and reached out to Gu Chunzhu to hug.

Gu Chunzhu was holding the door of the An'andao kitchen and waiting. The sound of the corn kernels popping open one by one was really like a firecracker, until there was no sound inside. She put down An An and wanted to go to see it, but An An didn't tell her to let go. When Gu Chunzhu coaxed her and then went in and lifted the lid of the pot, a burning smell came to her face.

Cough cough cough— She was choked and hurriedly put out the fire in the stove, and then rescued the popcorn in the pot.

A small handful of corn kernels were placed in a pot, and only one third of them exploded, and the ones that finally exploded were also burnt for a long time, which delayed the effort for a while...

Gu Chunzhu picked out more than a dozen intact popcorns and sprinkled them with powdered sugar. In fact, it was better to cover the popcorns with syrup, but she chose powdered sugar because the earthen stove could not weigh the pot.

What's wrong with Chunzhu? Su Wangqin, who was taking a bath in the back room, saw the thick smoke coming out of the stove and thought the house was on fire. He hurriedly wiped the water off his body, and rushed over in his underwear.

Brother Wang, you don't wear clothes. This was the first time Gu Chunzhu failed to make something, so he wanted to dig a hole to bury himself in, and changed the subject when he saw Su Wangqin coming over.

An An is a good coax, and clapped her little hands and said, Daddy is ashamed!

Go get dressed in this cold weather. Gu Chunzhu shoved Su Wangqin's chest. After pushing him away, Gu Chunzhu rubbed his hand and felt that the hand was not bad. The corn is a pain in the head.

Gu Chunzhu picked one up and put it on An An's mouth, An An, try the popcorn made by my mother.

Mother, can you eat this? An An's little hand didn't dare to pick it up, although it looked delicious with a little yellowish tinge, but her little nose smelled a paste in the stove.

Of course I can eat it. Gu Chunzhu picked up a popcorn and chewed it in his mouth, trying to prove to An An that the taste was okay.

An An just picked one up and bit it. She tasted the powdered sugar sprinkled on the popcorn and narrowed her eyes with satisfaction, Sweet, it would be nice if it didn't have the burnt taste.

Gu Chunzhu held her cheeks, what should she say, originally popcorn should be fragrant and sweet.

An An started eating and ate a few times, and finally saw that there were only three popcorns left, showing reluctance on her face, but she still insisted on leaving it for Xiao Cheng, who came back later.

Su Wangqin put on his clothes and took An An to bed. Gu Chunzhu cleaned up the mess in the kitchen and put away the unpopped corn kernels and the burnt corn kernels, so he could only cheapen the two chickens in the yard tomorrow morning.

Brother Wang, you must bring the stove back tomorrow. Gu Chunzhu entered the back room, An An was already asleep, and she continued to mention to Su Wangqin.

She summed up the reasons for this failure, mainly because the pan could not be shaken, which caused uneven heating, and another was that the pan was too late to cause coke. Su Wangqin should go to pick up Xiaocheng.

The next morning, Gu Chunzhu woke up and Su Wangqin had already left. She made breakfast for the children as usual, put it in a pot, and went to town to sell winter bamboo shoots. After selling the winter bamboo shoots, she went to a blacksmith shop.

I found a blacksmith to order a pot, which has an iron handle according to the appearance of a modern frying pan, and then let Su Wangqin get a wooden handle. She also asked the blacksmith to get a lid, but she also asked the blacksmith to get a folded wire on the lid, so that the popcorn in the pot could be stirred without lifting the lid.

When she got home, Yingzi stood at the back door of her house with tears in her eyes, and when she saw Gu Chunzhu, she rushed over and choked up, Auntie, are you back?

Why don't you cry. Gu Chunzhu stretched out his hand to wipe away Yingzi's tears, and patted her on the back lightly.

Yingzi is so capable, and she usually treats her as a little adult. For a while, she showed a childlike appearance, but Gu Chunzhu was not used to it, and more distressed.

It's not what happened today, it was last night... Yingzi stopped crying and told what happened last night. It turned out that Mrs. Wei knew from nowhere that Luo Xinlan lived here, and she was called Wei in the middle of the night. Gao Qiang climbed over the wall and entered.

Luo Xinlan's orphan and widow lived in such a big house, especially after going through the matter of Mrs. Wei when she rented a house before, she kept an eye on it and bought a trap at the blacksmith's shop and put it under the wall of the yard.

This Wei Gaoqiang just climbed over the wall and came in, but his legs were caught by the beast, and he ran away screaming.

It's not a good thing to scare people away, what's wrong with your mother? Gu Chunzhu couldn't figure it out, this hurt Wei Gaoqiang and told him to jump up and clap his hands if he couldn't come over and do bad things.

My mother is sick, maybe she's frightened. The two of them lived in the same house. Last night, Luo Xinlan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. This morning, she couldn't get up with a headache.

Yingzi also said to ask for a doctor. The doctor was busy seeing that she was a child and sent her back. She had no choice for a child, and Gu Yu was not at home, so she could only wait for Gu Chunzhu to set up a stall and come back.

Let's go, auntie carry your mother to see the doctor. Gu Chunzhu put the basket back at home, instructed Xiaocheng and An An to stay at home, and then went to Luo Xinlan's house and carried Luo Xinlan, who had a fever, to the hospital.

Doctor, look at this

Mainly because he was frightened and caught Feng Han and prescribed some medicine, Gu Chunzhu carried Luo Xinlan back on his back and used his own method to physically cool her down.

She also woke up when the medicine was almost ready, looked at Gu Chunzhu sitting on the edge of the bed with scarlet eyes and said, I'm causing you trouble again, Chunzhu.

Why didn't you call us when something happened last night? Gu Chunzhu sighed softly.

I told my mother-in-law that when I come back to town, I will teach them a hard lesson. I did it. Luo Xinlan looked at her weak eyes but was happy, her hands were shaking slightly, But I dreamed about it last night. Gao Wu, he accused me of treating his mother and brother badly.

You're shocked. Madam Wei and the others are not benevolent to you. It's their fault. You protected Yingzi. She is a good mother. Dreams and reality are the opposite. Wei Gaowu is praising you for doing a good job! Gu Chunzhu Just as he was persuading Luo Xinlan, he saw Yingzi brought in the medicine, and the bowl of medicine was so hot that Gu Chunzhu hurried over to take it.

Yingzi's delicate hands were scalding over her ears, Luo Xinlan looked at Yingzi, and the faith in her eyes became much firmer.

But how did this old lady Wei know that you live here? Could it be my little sister-in-law? Gu Chunzhu said suspiciously, and told Su Duo'er that she had to live with them.

Maybe it's not her who has no grievances with her... Luo Xinlan thought that she was just an unmarried woman who was still young and had nothing to do with her. How could she do such a thing.

She's not the best. Gu Chunzhu gritted his teeth.
