Mother, What Are You Doing?
For a medical research specialist, Gu Qingxue’s knife skills were excellent, and she was also very good at slaughtering pigs.
“Mother, mother, what are you doing?” Dumby was so frightened that the hair on his head trembled, and he hid behind Gu Lin.
Lingbao, on the other hand, watched with interest as Gu Qingxue bled the wild boar, showing no signs of fear at all.
Gu Lin knew that Gu Qingxue was slaughtering the boar. He reached out to cover Lingbao’s eyes and said to her and Dumby, “The two of you go back and wait. There will be meat to eat tonight.”
If such a big wild boar really stayed in their house, it would be enough for their family to eat for a long time.
When Lingbao and Dumby heard that there would be meat to eat, they immediately went back to their houses obediently.
Gu Lin walked towards Gu Qingxue.
“Don’t come over,” Gu Qingxue hurriedly said to Gu Lin, “This place is too dirty. Don’t get your clothes dirty.”
Gu Lin obediently stopped in his tracks. His pair of bright black eyes stared fixedly at Gu Qingxue, “Did you go up the mountain?”
Gu Qingxue busied herself with work, she nodded her head, “This wild boar was obtained from the mountain. “I also found some herbs from the mountain. After selling the herbs, I’ll be able to prepare the tuition fees for you. You’d better continue your studies and don’t give up so easily.”
“Are you really my mother?” Gu Lin suddenly asked.
Gu Qingxue stopped what she was doing and turned her head to look at Gu Lin, who was standing two meters away from her.
At this moment, looking at Gu Lin’s slightly narrow and long eyes, the man in white whom she had met in the mountain forest today suddenly appeared in her mind.
On that man’s face, there was also a pair of such long and beautiful eyes.
Xiao Lin’s eyes were really similar to that man’s.
Could it be a coincidence?
Gu Qingxue tried hard to drive out all the mixed thoughts in her mind. She looked at Gu Lin seriously and said, “Little dummy, are you stupid? Of course, I’m your mother.”
This child was really too sensitive.
So sensitive that it made one’s heart ache.
For a moment, Gu Qingxue felt like she wanted to hold Gu Lin in her arms, but she could not act rashly for fear of scaring him.
Gu Lin clenched his fists, looked at Gu Qingxue, and said, “But my mother won’t cook for us, nor will she be so gentle to us, nor will she enter the mountains for us.”
Their mother would only go crazy at home and complain about the heavens and the people over and over again, especially after being bullied by Madam Yu. When she came back, she would vent her anger on them and order them to work!
She had never really thought about the three of them before!
Gu Qingxue looked at Gu Lin and brought out her best acting skills. First, she furrowed her brows helplessly, then, the corners of her lips revealed a bitter smile, “In the past, mother had done many things to hurt the three of you. That was because mother was sick and my mind wasn’t clear. Now that mother has recovered, I won’t treat the three of you the way she did in the past.”
The guilt in her tone was overflowing.
Gu Lin suddenly thought of what Doctor Zhu had said in the village.
He said that their mother’s temperament had changed greatly because their father had passed away and her brain had been stimulated by an illness.
Now that their mother had recovered, her temperament had changed to that of a normal person. That was normal.
Gu Lin had already believed Gu Qingxue’s words in his heart. However, he was still unable to remove the estrangement in his heart and get along with Gu Qingxue like a normal mother and son.
As if she had seen through Gu Lin’s thoughts, Gu Qingxue said softly, “In the future, you can just watch mother’s performance. Mother will do what she has said.”
Gu Lin looked at Gu Qingxue.
Only then did he realize that Gu Qingxue’s eyes were exceptionally clear. Other than the warmth in her eyes, he could not see anything else.
