Chapter 37: Gossip

"Really Grandpa Leng."

Changsheng carefully recalled the cool and swooshing feeling before and spoke with certainty.

"I felt a sudden chill on the back of my neck, as if someone blew a breath of cold air on me. It was very uncomfortable."

Lao Gutou didn't say anything, but the speed of driving the old scalper became much faster. When he got home, Gu Xiaomei asked him worriedly, but Lao Gutou just said a few words and missed the matter.

His sister knew that she was too timid to tell her these things easily, otherwise she would be unable to sleep all night long.

In a situation like Changsheng's, Lao Gutou only had one idea. Maybe this child has the legendary ability to sense murderous aura? But it's not certain. It's also possible that Changsheng is just too sensitive? Or maybe it's just a coincidence?

In any case, they should not go to the town these days. It seems that the town is not very safe. I just don't know which god the troupe offended to cause such a disaster.

Several days after returning, when people in Gujia Village heard about this incident, the troupe had already left.

"It is said that they broke the taboo by singing that opera."

In the afternoon, when everyone was sitting together to bask in the sun, someone spoke mysteriously. Looking at it, people who didn't know it thought it was some kind of mysterious conference. In fact, this news has been out of date for a long time.

"What's so taboo about singing an opera? I think they must have offended someone without knowing it!"

"Who can the troupe offend?"

"You ask me? How do I know? I'm not from those troupes."

"I think you don't know, right? Look at how careless you are."

"Hey, do you want to fight? I'm not afraid of you!"

"come!"

The two young men had a conflict because of these small words, and they were about to fight, but they blocked the way of Lao Gu Tou Changsheng and Gu Xiaomei.

Lao Gutou didn't say anything, he just stood there and took a look. When the two young men who were about to fight found out, they gave up faster than the people who broke up the fight. The people around them were almost angry.

The people who were chatting around carefully glanced at the backs of the three people as they left, and the low-pitched buzz suddenly became loud again.

"Why do you think Gu Xiaomei is still living in old Gutou's house? I remember, aren't these days the anniversary of her man's death thirty years ago? Are you not going back?"

"What do you care about others? Tell me, why don't you go back to attend some kind of memorial day? It's been thirty years since the Li family died, so what's the use of holding a Lao Shizi memorial day?"

"You don't know this, right? It is said that Lijia Village is a village that was moved from Shanxi Province, but it attaches great importance to the memorial day after death. In the past, the Li family was poor, but now the family has grown up, both boys and girls.

My father holds a memorial ceremony so that others can know that he is a filial son and a virtuous grandson! Otherwise, why do the children, grandchildren, and daughters-in-law in your little sister’s house come to invite you every now and then? The eldest girls and young boys in the family are still missing!"

"How do you know so clearly? Someone told you?"

"Hey, I still need someone to tell me about this. What else don't I know after I went to Lijia Village?"

"Then, who told you to have a clever mouth..."

While people were having fun in the village, Boss Gu's wife passed by and took a look at the backs of the three bosses. Her face was a little gloomy. After she returned, it was difficult to hide the expression on her face.

When Boss Gu saw his wife like this, he immediately knew that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong yet, so he asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong? I feel uncomfortable!"

Mrs. Gu Li was born in Lijia Village and knew this custom in her village. Thinking about her aunt Gu Xiaomei, uncle Lao Gutou, and the large chunks of land that had been given away for no reason, it felt pricking in her heart.

"Tell me about our father! Such a good field will be divided among the second uncle! He doesn't care about you brothers at all! The second brother and sister were even talking to me the day before yesterday! And our aunt and uncle have owned it for thirty years.

She didn’t even go back on the festival day. How many times have her children and grandchildren come to Gujia Village? They even came to me to make peace before. What can I say? I was still scared when I saw my second uncle!"

"Okay, just say a few words less."

Gu Li was very angry, but her man always told her the truth, so she was just making a fuss because she was in an unhappy mood. She didn't dare to say anything serious, but after complaining, she felt relieved.

Boss Gu, on the other hand, thought with a straight face under the wall for a long time, and finally decided to go to Lao Gutou's house to have a look. Apart from anything else, his aunt has been living in Lao Gutou's house since she came to Gujiacun, which doesn't make sense.

Before leaving, Boss Gu also brought a bag of food from home and walked quickly to the end of the village.

Before he reached it, he heard a burst of laughter coming from the yard. Boss Gu was stunned for a moment, and after careful identification, he realized that it belonged to Gu Xiaomei. His aunt was rarely so happy. Boss Gu listened for a while.

, I feel strange.

After entering the courtyard gate, I discovered that it was Gu Xiaomei who was watching the little guy named Changsheng practicing martial arts with Lao Gutou. Perhaps because the gestures took a long time, Changsheng occasionally stabbed Lao Gutou on the head with a small wooden knife. Gu Xiaomei also

This is what makes me happy.

But at this moment, the three smiling people in the yard felt a little strange when they saw the visiting Boss Gu. But Gu Xiaomei was still very happy, and she smiled and asked Boss Gu to sit down.

"Boss, why are you here? Is something wrong?"

Boss Gu sat on the stool brought by Changsheng and was silent for a while. He still didn't say hello to Boss Gu, but looked directly at Xiaomei Gu.

"Auntie, it's nothing important. I was thinking, since you've been living here these days, would you like to stay at my house? The younger ones in my family miss you too."

Gu Xiaomei was quite happy. She had a good relationship with her eldest nephew, but she thought about it and refused.

"Second brother, this place is cleaner. I'm old and like to be quiet. If your little ones miss me, just come over and visit me. I'll make delicious food for them."

Boss Gu didn't mean that, but when he was about to say something, he saw the old Gu with a sullen expression on his side, and immediately suppressed what he wanted to say.

Although the relationship between the two has improved somewhat since the death of Village Chief Gu, Boss Gu feels that it is too difficult to talk to Old Gutou calmly. For example, right now, before he opens his mouth, the other party is looking at him sideways.

Himself, it made him feel short of breath.

In the end, Boss Gu could only say a few words to Xiaomei Gu, put down the food and left after holding it in for such a long time.

Gu Xiaomei sent him out and looked a little sad when she came back. She was not stupid. Although Boss Gu didn't say anything, Gu Xiaomei could guess why he came here.
