Chapter 68 Where did you bring this child back from?

Bang bang bang!

Gu An wanted to let everyone know about Gu Feng's existence, so he went to the back door and knocked hard, waking up everyone living nearby.

"Xiaoxi, open the door, the child has caught a cold." He shouted while knocking on the door.

Gu Xiaoxi heard the shouting and ran out of the house. Seeing her third brother was about to open the door, she grabbed him.

After her uncle called her a few times, she let her third brother open the yard door.

"Uncle, where did you bring this child back from?" Gu Nanming asked loudly.

"This is the child of a friend of mine. After the couple passed away, there was no one to take care of the child. Suddenly, they found me and I brought him back. Let's not talk about this for now. Let Xiaoxi take a look at him." Gu An's tone was a little anxious and his voice was loud.

Gu Nanming took Gu Feng and carried him into the yard. Gu An wiped the sweat from his forehead and closed the door.

Gu Xiaoxi waited for her third brother to bring the child in, and then went into the house with her third brother.

She asked her uncle to wait outside, mainly because her third brother's room was not big and it would be difficult to see the patient with too many people.

After entering the room, she examined the child. She guessed that the child had caught a cold and was frightened, so it was normal for him to have a fever at night.

She asked her third brother to pour her a glass of water, and while he was away, she gave Gu Feng some antipyretic medicine.

Wait for the third brother to come back, drink some more water, and then wait for sweating.

Gu Feng had a severe fever and was even talking nonsense, but he kept shouting the same few words: "Mom, don't go, Mom, please don't leave your son, Mom..."

Gu Nanming looked at the child and sighed, "Oh, this child is quite pitiful. Both his parents are gone, and his face has become like this.

"Xiaoxi, do you think his face can be healed?"

"It's hard to say. I can only say that I'll try my best." Gu Xiaoxi was worried that if the child returned to his original appearance, he would be killed.

However, I can't go out with this face.

Such a scary face would scare any normal person. If it was a friend of the same age, how painful it would be for him.

This face is useless, so she wants to find a way to change it, but she doesn't know how long it will take?

After all, she didn't have many medicines on hand, and she still needed to find all the medicines.

Thinking that her uncle was still outside, she walked out and said, "Uncle, go back to your room and sleep. The fever won't go away that quickly. My third brother and I can just watch over you."

After hearing what Xiaoxi said, Gu An agreed and went into the house.

Gu Xiaoxi asked her third brother to boil some water and wait for the boy to sweat so that he could take a hot bath.

"By the way, light the fire in the kitchen. We can't wash here. It's too cold." Seeing her third brother go out, she gave another instruction.

"Okay!" Gu Nanming went to the kitchen.

Gu Dongming and others in the yard over there heard the noise and got up. They asked about the situation and found out that the child had a fever, so they came over to check.

Mrs. Chai also came over with her clothes on. When she heard that the child had a fever, she watched over the child until the fever subsided and felt relieved.

Gu Feng slowly woke up after his fever subsided.

He opened his eyes and found himself sitting in a bathtub. He couldn't remember how long he had been in the bathtub. The warm feeling was really good.

"Do you feel better?" Gu Nanming had never had a child before, so he was very careful when bathing Gu Feng.

Hearing this somewhat unfamiliar voice, Gu Feng slowly turned his head and looked over.

"What's wrong? Are you hungry?" Gu Nanming asked.

Gu Feng shook his head, smiled slightly and called out, "Third Uncle."

Why……

Gu Nanming responded with a smile.

After washing Gu Feng clean, he put his own clothes on the child first. Although they were too big and didn't fit, they were still better than the previous clothes.

Not only was the previous set of clothes tattered, but most importantly, even after Gu Xiaoxi soaked it in the medicinal juice and sweated, it still smelled strange.

Chai came in to take a look out of concern, and when she saw Gu Feng wearing Gu Nanming's clothes, she couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, this dress is too big." She said with a smile.

At this time, Gu Xiaoxi also came over with a backpack in her hand.

Gu Nanming knew that this was something given to him by Young Master Chen San last time.

"Mom, this is the cloth that someone gave me before, and some cotton I bought. When you are free, please make clothes for the children. If there is not enough cotton, I will buy some more when I go to the city the day after tomorrow." Gu Xiaoxi put the backpack in front of his mother.

"Okay, I'll do it when I'm free." Chai agreed readily.

"Thank you for your hard work, mother, third uncle, grandma, and little grandpa." Gu Feng bowed respectfully to everyone.

Seeing the child's politeness, Chai asked, "Can you read?"

Um!

Gu Feng nodded.

After hearing this, Gu An understood what was going on and said, "If someone asks you why you can read, just say you learned it from the scholar in your hometown."

"Gu Feng remembered it." Gu Feng replied.

When Chai heard that the child could read, she was overjoyed and asked, "Can you teach my three younger sisters to read in the future?"

"Okay!" Gu Feng nodded happily.

After hearing this, Chai's eyes narrowed into a line with a smile.

It costs a lot of money to send a child to a private school. The most important thing is that there are three girls in the family, and they cannot attend ordinary private schools.

Gu He was sitting at the door, and when he heard these words, he couldn't stop laughing.

"Go to sleep. You can continue to stay with your grandpa tomorrow. Once he has made all the arrangements, you can move in." Gu Xiaoxi knew that her family had accepted the child.

"I understand, Mom!" Gu Feng agreed clearly.

Gu Xiaoxi fed Gu Feng the medicine again and let him spend time with his third brother tonight.

The next morning, Gu Xiaoxi got up and taught his brothers how to practice martial arts, while Gu Feng secretly followed them from the side.

Seeing that the child was eager to learn, Gu He patted his shoulder and said, "If you want to learn, just do it openly."

"Thank you, Grandpa." Gu Feng thanked him happily.

God knows how much he wants to be a martial arts master. Although he doesn't know who Uncle Qin has offended, he still wants to avenge Uncle Qin in his heart.

However, he understood even more clearly that the prerequisite for revenge for Uncle Qin was to have the ability to protect himself first.

After breakfast, Gu Xiaoxi gave his father an acupuncture injection and went up the mountain again.

Gu An was not idle either. He took Gu Nanming and Gu Feng up the mountain.

There were limited chestnuts on the mountain. Gu Xiaoxi was plucking those chestnuts while thinking about his next plan.

This kind of business depends on the season, and how long it can last depends entirely on luck. She also needs to find a long-term business.

What to do?

At noon, she sat under the chestnut tree, eating roast chicken and thinking about this question in her mind.

At this time, in addition to chestnuts, you can also dig up konjac and yam on the mountain, but they are more difficult to find. She wants to find something more common.

Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I’ll go around the city tomorrow and maybe I’ll get something.

She was so busy that when the sun was about to set, she went home with her backpack as usual. On the way, she found her second brother and sister-in-law pushing a cart with several backpacks on them, which were full of peeled chestnuts.
