162 No Brain Damage
"You kid, what are you talking about? I don't believe you, do I still believe in Mrs Cao?" Aunt Zhang's tone was a little heavy.
"Aunt Zhang, to tell you the truth, I earned that money myself!" Gu Xiaowan opened the chatterbox and said.
"Then...why are there so many!" Aunt Zhang said with a bit of sigh.
It was also sad that Aunt Zhang suspected that, that night, Gu Xiaowan took out several hundred taels of silver bills from her purse, which really scared Aunt Zhang.
"Aunt Zhang, do you remember that you told us that Huichuntang was recycling medicinal materials at high prices?"
"This... remember! It was just not long ago that I came to your house to deliver white noodles, and I just said something to you casually, telling you not to go into the deep mountains." Aunt Zhang seemed to think of something, and said in fear: "Did you go to the deep mountains?"
Gu Xiaowan nodded: "Well, I dug up a ginseng plant that time and sold it for hundreds of taels!"
"No wonder!" Aunt Zhang felt relieved and nodded, knowing why Gu Xiaowan had so much money.
"Hey, that's when a blind cat meets a dead mouse. Whoever enters the mountain and touches a ginseng plant! That money is also accidental, it's just good luck!" Gu Xiaowan pretended that she didn't dig up the ginseng plant. If you don't earn the five hundred taels of silver, that's it.
Gu Xiaowan did not finish talking about the origin of the silver, that is to say, she chose the simplest thing to say. Gu Xiaowan didn't say anything about going to Jinfulou to sell recipes. First, it will make Aunt Zhang suspicious. Second, Gu Xiaowan is just a nine-year-old girl, and Aunt Zhang knows the bottom line. Gu Xiaowan didn’t know these things before. Others treat Gu Xiaowan as a monster.
"Yeah, that's all an accident, and we don't expect to get rich by doing this!" Aunt Zhang also thinks this is the truth: "Let's just live our lives in a down-to-earth way."
"Well, what Aunt Zhang said is!" Gu Xiaowan nodded, agreeing with what Aunt Zhang said.
"Girl Wan, don't you have any money on your body?" Aunt Zhang said worriedly, "I didn't move the bamboo shoots last time, they are still there. You ask for money everywhere now, and you should take the money first. "
As Aunt Zhang spoke, she took out a cloth bag from her bosom, and opened the cloth bag on the third layer on the left and the third layer on the right. Inside the cloth bag were three silver lumps, thirty taels.
Seeing Aunt Zhang stuffing the money into her arms, Gu Xiaowan quickly shied away and said, "Aunt Zhang, I can't ask for this money."
"Hey, you earned this money. If it weren't for you, how could we have earned thirty taels. Auntie understands that you want to feel better for yourself, and you want Aunt Zhang's family to feel better. But, see Aunt Zhang. You children are not doing well, my aunt is worried!" The more Aunt Zhang said, the more saddened she became, and the more she said, the more saddened her tears fell.
It seemed that I thought of Tian Shi and Gu Chuanfu, those two kind-hearted people, how could God not have such eyes.
It is easy to recognize that you will not live long, and the scourge will stay for thousands of years!
God this is so unfair!
The more Aunt Zhang thought about it, the more sad and angry she became! This Cao family and the Gu family's big house are simply bullying others! Bullying the second wife of the Gu family for leaving early, and humiliating the family like this, is that a human being?
"Aunt Zhang, don't be sad!" Gu Xiaowan said leisurely, everything that happened in the past few days made Gu Xiaowan more confident.
In this study, Gu Ning'an and Gu Ningping should continue to read it even if they are smashing the pot and selling iron. Why? Because I don't study, it is very likely that I will stay in this Wuxi Village for the rest of my life. It is still good to face the loess and back to the sky, which also shows that they still have the capital to survive.
I'm afraid I don't know where to go if I want to shave!
"How can I not be sad!" Aunt Zhang was angry and hated: "Your uncle and third uncle's family is too much. And the village chief Liang, it is too unreasonable to protect the shortcoming."
"Aunt Zhang, I've seen it all." Gu Xiaowan said lightly.
When Aunt Zhang heard this, she kept her eyes fixed on Gu Xiaowan.
I read it, and these four words actually came out of an eight-year-old's mouth. The disappointment and calmness made Aunt Zhang really eat it. A completely different kind of Gu Xiaowan surprised Aunt Zhang.
"Wan girl, you're only a little older, so you just said that you can't watch it. Auntie doesn't like to hear this!" No matter what, Aunt Zhang still wanted to persuade Gu Xiaowan. This eight-year-old girl is so mature. Aunt Zhang couldn't bear it.
"Aunt Zhang, I know you're doing it for my own good. I will cherish your kindness for five years, and I will always remember it in my heart forever." Gu Xiaowan didn't want to continue the topic just now, she took Aunt Zhang's hand and said gratefully: "From my accident to now Xiaoyi's accident, the people who have been helping us silently by our side are only you, Brother Stone, and Uncle Zhang! We will definitely repay you in the future."
"Stupid boy, what nonsense are you talking about!" Aunt Zhang said with some anger: "Auntie doesn't need you to repay me. As long as your siblings live happily, Auntie will be content! If one day I go down to see you Mom and Dad, I can also have a clear conscience!"
Gu Xiaowan didn't speak anymore. Hearing this, she couldn't help but have mixed feelings in her heart.
The two of them sat around the table, talking to themselves.
At this time, a faint voice came from the kang: "Sister, sister..."
Gu Xiaowan hurriedly jumped off the chair and ran to the front of the kang in three steps. Gu Xiaoyi opened her eyes slightly, revealing only a light inside. Seeing Gu Xiaowan, her eyes opened a little and she said with peace of mind: " Sister, I want to drink water."
For the past few days, Gu Xiaoyi has been sleeping soundly, even occasionally
When he woke up, it was also temporary, and he never opened his mouth.
This is the first time Gu Xiaoyi has spoken, and he has said so many words that he is still very clear that he is thirsty and wants to drink water.
It seems that Gu Xiaoyi didn't hurt his brain. When Gu Xiaowan thought of this, she was excited and said tremblingly, "Okay, okay, my sister will go get you water!"
Aunt Zhang came over with a bowl of water in her hand and handed it to Gu Xiaowan: "Girl Wan, take it, I'll go outside and bring a bowl of rice soup. It's almost time, it's time to take medicine later."
