Chapter 97 Borrowing Money



There was a ginseng in the betrothal gift that the Pei family gave her, and now her father has dug up another one.

"Hehe! Mr. Lu saw me digging it, and we unanimously decided to give it to you."

They eat and use what belongs to Guaibao, and any good things they dig up naturally belong to Guaibao. He has the right to take this ginseng.

"Then I'll accept it without hesitation. Thank you, Mr. Lu! Dad is really amazing. Not only can he hunt rabbits, but he can also dig ginseng."

Gu Qingmeng understood Gu Jun’s personality. What he loved to hear most was her praise, and she couldn’t let her father down.

"Hehehe! It's not that great. Old Master Lu said this ginseng is fifty years old. Daddy will dig you a hundred-year-old ginseng later."

Gu Jun planned to drag Mr. Lu up the mountain to look for ginseng tomorrow. He had to dig up some century-old ginseng to use when his daughter gave birth. If he had had century-old ginseng when his wife gave birth, perhaps she wouldn't have been in trouble. So he had to prepare some for his daughter!

Gu Qingmeng smiled and didn't take it seriously. It was already very good to be able to dig up fifty-year-old ginseng.

"Gu girl, go back early and don't listen to your father. Sell this ginseng and buy yourself some delicious food. There are a lot of ginseng on this mountain. I'll dig one for you in a few days."

Mr. Lu also knew that Gu Qingmeng was engaged. These old guys didn't have anything worth showing off, so they could only go up the mountain and look for it.

Gu Qingmeng stayed in the cowshed until half past nine before going home. It was already very cold at night in late October, and she was not warm even wearing a down jacket. The cotton-padded clothes prepared for her grandfather and the others had been delivered a few days ago, but the cowshed was still very cold at night.

If we continue like this for another six or seven years, how can Grandpa's body withstand it? Now...

"Sister, Grandpa's body is hunched over. Does he want to die?"

Gu Guodong lowered his head, his tears falling to the ground without any sound, but his heart felt like it was hit by a hammer, it hurt so much.

"No, Grandpa just hasn't gotten used to the current life yet."

How could she not have noticed something her younger brother had already discovered? The few times Grandpa came to the cowshed, he had been forcing himself to talk to them. He was becoming increasingly thinner, and whenever Old Lu saw her, he hesitated to speak.

She rescued her two younger brothers, and her stepmother Tian Liping was also pregnant. She had changed their family. Why didn't grandpa want to live anymore?

Most of the people in Peijiagou are very simple and honest. They did not make things difficult for the people in the cowshed, nor did they pull them out to criticize them from time to time. She always took good care of them.

Gu Qingmeng's mind suddenly flashed back to the scene when his grandfather passed away in his previous life. His grandfather said that he was a burden to him and he wanted to leave earlier, but he was always worried about him and endured for a few more years.

Does grandpa now also feel that he is a burden to him?

Once she finds the problem, she can think of a solution.

Gu Qingmeng attended classes as usual, but Su Xue took three more days off. Her face was rosy during class, and it was obvious that her married life was good.

Pei Xinghe has returned, and with him came his third brother Pei Zhenxing and his third sister-in-law Zhou Fang.

Gu Qingmeng went to the Pei family to see Pei Zhenxing. He had injured his leg and would have a slight limp after recovery. He could not withstand high-intensity training, so he retired.

Fortunately, she was arranged a job at the county police station. Zhou Fang is a nurse and is now pregnant. After giving birth, she will go to the county clinic to start work.

If nothing unexpected happens, the two will settle down in the county in the future. Pei Xinghe said that Pei Zhenxing graduated from junior high school, and if he performs well in the public security department, he may be promoted to the city.

Gu Qingmeng feels that there is still a lot of room for promotion.

"Mengmeng, I've prepared the ingredients for making cookies. We'll come to you tomorrow, Saturday, to make cookies."

Zhao Weiting was cracking pine nuts while waiting for Gu Qingmeng to finish class. When she saw her, she immediately came over. She was seriously short of food, especially delicious food.

Seeing Su Xue, she continued, "Oh~ The bride looks good! It seems like they have a very happy married life!"

"Of course, you'll know when you get married. It's just that it's a bit hard on the waist. Mengmeng, give me some kidneys to replenish my body."

Su Xue had never been shy about speaking before, and now she speaks even more without restraint.

Gu Qingmeng held her forehead and pulled the two of them home together, hoping that they would not lead her students astray.

When she returned home and saw the package in the yard, Gu Qingmeng knew it was sent by Pei Xinghe. The man would know the first time she needed something and buy it and send it to her.

Ever since the two got engaged, the man has had no scruples.

She was in class during the day and didn't let Pei Xinghe go to school to find her. When he wanted to deliver something, he would jump over the wall and come in. Now even Black Panther didn't bother to pay attention to him.

In just a few days, he jumped over the wall six or seven times, an average of twice a day, which is speechless enough.

"Your man is addicted to jumping over walls. If he doesn't, give him a key."

Zhao Weiting casually said that the second most popular thing in the village now is Pei Xinghe's affair with an adulterer, and the first one is of course Chen Lan's affair with an adulterer.

"Come on! Have you finished moving? You must have enough firewood! If you don't have firewood on a snowy day, you'll freeze to death!"

With Gu Qingmeng's help, Zhao Weiting and Qi Zheng also moved into Li Changan's house. However, the two of them were extremely lazy and didn't want to chop firewood at all. They just exchanged things with the villagers.

In fact, they just paid for the firewood. Both of them are very rich.

"I have a little money and plenty of firewood, so don't worry."

Zhao Weiting is so idle that she has gained three pounds. She doesn't have to go to work or chop wood. She and Guan Beibei either roast sweet potatoes or potatoes every day. When they get tired of them, they roast chestnuts. Her life is so comfortable.

"You guys chat, I'm going home. Xiaohua, the meal should be ready." Su Xue ran home happily. The happiness of having Dehua at home was beyond the imagination of others.
