It was late at night, and the crescent moon was hidden under the gray mist. There were no stars or lights, and the only sound that could be heard was the whistling of the wind beating against the wall.
Gu Xiaoqi couldn't help but warned him again: "No matter what noise you hear at night, don't get up and just sleep peacefully."
She plans to go fishing tonight to prepare for the renovation of her house tomorrow.
Grandpa Lin and Gu Xiaojiu both said hello. They lay on the soft quilts, their eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and then they fell into sleep.
Gu Xiaojiu could probably guess what his sister wanted to do. He originally planned to catch "rats" with his sister. But when he heard his sister telling him to sleep peacefully...
Then you can only listen to your sister! Anyway, my sister will definitely be able to catch those mice without any effort.
Although Gu Xiaoqi also had his eyes closed, he was only in a light sleep. As long as there was the slightest sound around him, he would wake up immediately.
Time passed little by little, and most of the people had fallen into sleep. However, there were some people who struggled to open their eyes and stared at the small shabby house not far away. One of them was the aunt this morning.
While yawning, she asked the man next to her: "Is it finally okay now? Isn't it just two children and an old man half-buried in the soil? As for waiting until night."
The man glanced at the aunt next to him with disdain. How could a girl with a faint murderous look in her eyes during the day be a good person? Besides, the old man saved the daughter of a big shot. How could he mess with her openly?
Really, no wonder I was kicked far away by a little girl during the day, and now I don’t have a long memory!
He said coldly: "As long as I say yes, then you will be responsible for guarding the door. Don't let anyone run out or let anyone in."
The woman rolled her eyes, continued to wrap herself up in clothes, and yawned one after another.
If she hadn't coaxed that little girl, she would have done it herself! Do you still need to find this person to cooperate?
Just when she was drowsy, the man suddenly pushed her and whispered: "Let's go!"
Got it done!
The woman suddenly became energetic and stared at the small shabby house not far away with malice in her eyes.
That stinky girl kicked her during the day and it still hurts a bit, but at night...she will look good!
Just when the man walked near the small shabby house, Gu Xiaoqi suddenly opened her eyes and sat quietly in the corner. She completely blended into the night and stared at the door with interest.
It seems that the fish are coming...
I don’t know how many fish there will be tonight...
The man leaned on the door and briefly looked at the lock on the door. It was just a piece of wood blocking the door to prevent the wind from blowing open.
Determined to win flashed in his eyes, he worked with his hands, and the wood pieces suddenly fell to the ground.
The man carefully opened the door and stepped into the boundless black.
The woman waited at the door for a long time but did not hear any movement, let alone see the man coming out. She couldn't help but cursed in a low voice: "Could this bitch take the good things and run away by himself?"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she strode directly to the door, opened it and walked in.
There was silence again...
The people who had been guarding the small shabby house couldn't help but look at each other, with doubts on their dirt-covered faces.
Why were there no movement from these two people? Moreover, they were not seen coming out.
The few of them looked at each other, walked to the door cautiously, and opened the door in the same way...
When the sky was faintly white, the old man opened his eyes. Just as he was about to get up, he saw several people lying motionless on the ground.
"Cough cough cough -" A rapid cough sounded instantly. Gu Xiaoqi quickly opened his eyes, stood up from the bed quickly and poured a glass of water for the old man.
She said: "Grandpa Lin, don't worry, they broke into our house deliberately, I..."
"Cough, cough, cough, girl, you're not hurt, are you?" The old man suppressed the itch in his throat and asked in a concerned tone.
He has been in the garbage area for so long, so he naturally knows the virtues here. He was too happy last night, and temporarily forgot about this matter, and finally let the girl solve it alone.
Gu Xiaoqi said quickly: "I'm fine! I'm fine! And besides, it's a good thing that they came to my door!"
Good thing?
Doubt flashed through the old man's turbid eyes, and he looked at Gu Xiaoqi in confusion.
