Gu's hand that was sewing clothes shook slightly and she almost pricked her hand with a needle.
She stopped talking, but her slightly trembling fingers betrayed her emotions.
"Is it really okay, his dad?" She finally raised her face and asked excitedly.
"Yes," Qi Zhong still smiled with an honest face. He touched his head sheepishly, "We didn't have that ability before, so we couldn't help your parents. Now that we have money,
Although it's not much, it can still save the day. I guess, as long as we save what we pick up and plant some sweet potatoes in the fields, we can give them to your mother. But..." At this point, he
His voice became lowered, "Don't let mother know about this matter, otherwise it will cause big trouble again."
"I know, I know," Mrs. Gu kept nodding, then she lowered her head again, sewing the clothes with trembling fingers, and even started to cry a little.
She had forgotten how long it had been since she had been back to her parents' home. How was her mother, and how were her younger brothers?
"Then pick a good day and go back. I'll borrow the ox cart from Uncle He and take you there with me."
Mrs. Gu gave a gentle greeting, but she still couldn't hold the needle firmly in her hand.
Mrs. Gu picked up Qi You. The weather outside was perfect and it was a suitable day for sowing. Qi Zhong was very motivated and was busy in the fields, wanting to make more money so that they could have more money.
Until early in the morning, Qi Youer was picked up by Gu. She kept looking left and right, her eyes full of curiosity. This was her first time going out in ancient times. To be honest, compared with ancient times,
What satisfies her the most in modern times is the fresh air, especially after it rains. The blue sky makes people feel really comfortable.
However, if there was anything else that was unsatisfactory, it was that the bullock cart was bumpy all the way, making her feel uncomfortable. Even riding a bus with one car was not so uncomfortable, and the speed was extremely slow.
She didn't know how long they walked. She only knew that she woke up and fell asleep, and then woke up again. When she rubbed her eyes again, the bullock cart had stopped.
"Thank you, Uncle He," Mrs. Gu hugged Qi Youer and thanked her again and again, followed by three children of different sizes.
"It's okay, we are all neighbors. I will come again tomorrow afternoon. Just wait for me here when you arrive. I will take you back for a while." Uncle He shook his whip, smiled very seriously, and then drove the bullock cart.
gone ,
Mrs. Gu then turned around and walked towards the village.
This village is obviously much poorer than Stone Village. You can tell from the houses built on both sides. You'er originally thought that their family was poor enough, but as soon as she entered her grandmother's house, she discovered that her grandmother
The family is even poorer than theirs.
Even the walls were torn down, with many mud bricks falling off, and the door outside was dilapidated and crumbling.
"Mom, it's me, Xiang Hua, I'm back." Mrs. Gu knocked on the door with her free hand.
"Coming, coming..." Soon, the shabby door opened, and what came out was a young man about thirteen or fourteen years old. He looked about the same as Gu, but his clothes were a little tattered.
He said, patched up, "Sister, you're back," the young man's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Mrs. Gu.
"Mom, mother, my sister is back!"
And then I heard an old voice inside, "Xiang Hua, are you back?"
"Mom, it's me, I'm back," Gu knew it was her mother as soon as she heard the voice inside. She quickly ran in. There was a darkness inside and an unpleasant smell.
"Mother, mother..." As soon as Mrs. Gu saw the thin old lady sitting on the collapse, she rushed towards her, hugged her and cried loudly.
