Chapter 102 Why does that jade pendant look familiar?
What is the word?
She looked carefully again and finally saw clearly that there was a word "An" inside.
Could this be a character in the man's name?
She had no way of knowing this, because until now, she didn't know the other person's last name or first name. She suddenly felt like a little stupid.
Crunch!
The door of one of the rooms opened, but Gu Xiaoxi was surprised and didn't react.
Gu Feng got up at night to go to the toilet. After opening the door, he saw what his mother was looking at, and he walked over curiously.
When he saw the jade pendant in his mother's hand, he was stunned.
Gu Xiaoxi realized that the light was blocked, and then she came to her senses and looked over.
"Afeng is awake?" she said.
Gu Feng came back to his senses and asked with a smile on his face, "Mom, this jade is really beautiful. Is it expensive?"
"I don't know about that. A friend of mine left it here temporarily." After saying that, Gu Xiaoxi put the jade pendant away.
After hearing this, Gu Feng smiled slightly, said nothing more, and went to the toilet.
After entering the toilet, he muttered in confusion, "Why does that jade pendant look familiar?"
Gu Xiaoxi didn't notice that something was wrong with Afeng. After putting away the jade pendant, she yawned and waited for Afeng to go back to sleep. She also went into the room.
That night, Gu Feng had nightmares one after another. When it was almost dawn, he screamed and sat up.
Gu An had just fallen asleep after switching shifts with Gu Yuntian when he was startled awake by a call. He lit the kerosene lamp and walked over to see A Feng: "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare again?"
Um!
Gu Feng knew that he would definitely scream out loud, and he would definitely not be able to hide the nightmare.
"It's okay, we're safe now, don't be afraid!" Gu An patted Afeng's shoulder and comforted Afeng.
"I'm sorry for disturbing my little grandpa." Gu Feng said apologetically.
"Why say these things? I am your relative now." Gu An smiled kindly.
Um!
Gu Feng nodded again.
Gu An poured Gu Feng a cup of hot water. After drinking the water, Gu Feng slowly calmed down.
After recovering, Gu Feng deliberately lay down and closed his eyes for fear of disturbing his grandfather's rest. In fact, he couldn't sleep at all.
Gu An was too tired during the day, so he lay down and fell asleep again.
By the next morning, the number of people coming to help with the work had doubled.
Gu Xiaoxi was shocked to see so many people, but Gu An understood that they were all there for the meat-filled meal.
There's no way, most people in this village are poor!
Gu An turned around and looked at Xiaoxi and said, "Shall I go buy some meat today?"
"No need. I hunted a wild boar yesterday. It's enough to eat for a few days." Gu Xiaoxi said.
Looking at so many people, she actually felt a little worried.
It is indeed easier to get things done with more people, but she did not intend to let outsiders know about the technical work of brick making.
Who knows, when you have no other options in the future, you might still be able to make a fortune with your own abilities!
If that's the case, things like making bricks have to be done at night, which is so tiring!
What should I do?
This made Gu Xiaoxi and Gu An a little worried.
"I'll go and arrange things first, and other things can come later. Anyway, as I said before, it's just building a few wooden houses and this wall. It will be completed in two days at most." Gu An said in a low voice.
Um!
Gu Xiaoxi felt that this was the only way.
At this time, Aunt Yuntian also came over, as did the old patriarch and Granny Luobo.
Seeing the old patriarch and Granny Carrot from afar, Gu Xiaoxi put down what he was doing and went over to help them.
"It's okay, it's okay. After I recover, I will be strong again." Grandma Radish still had a smiling face.
"Yes, yes, you two will live to be a hundred years old!" Gu Xiaoxi smiled back and continued to support Grandma Luobo.
The old patriarch looked at Gu Xiaoxi with a smile on his face, and they walked into the yard while talking.
Gu Xiaoxi suddenly thought of something. She asked Aunt Yuntian to take the two elders in to see Uncle Yunhai, while she went to find her uncle.
"Uncle, I have an idea. We don't need to knock down the wall next to it for now. We can open two more doors here, one door facing outside and one door facing the yard over there. Then we can build a wall around it on the other side, using the same method." She told her uncle what she had thought of.
Although the wall on this side was built last night, it was not dry yet, so we didn’t have time to tear down the original wall.
Gu An felt that this method seemed to work. Even if he wanted to burn a brick kiln, he could do so in the other yard. He could call Dongming and the others to help, and they could take turns guarding it at night.
"Okay, let's do it. But then Dongming and the others won't be able to do business." He looked at Gu Xiaoxi and said.
"If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. It won't make a difference if you spend a few days there." Gu Xiaoxi didn't care.
After deciding this matter, they went back to their own work.
Inside the house, the old patriarch Gu saw that his youngest son's legs were still tied with wood and asked distressedly, "Does it hurt?"
"It hurts!" Gu Yunhai said with a smile.
"It hurts, it hurts, haha..." said the old patriarch Gu happily.
Grandma Radish wiped her tears, cried and then laughed.
"Isn't it a happy thing that Uncle Yunhai's leg can be cured? Why are you crying?" Gu Xiaoxi found that the atmosphere was wrong when she entered the room.
"Yes, yes, yes, I have to be happy, I have to be happy, hahaha..." Grandma Radish said and laughed out loud.
Patriarch Gu asked with concern, "Xiaoxi, how long will it take for Yunhai to be able to walk again?"
Phew!
Yuntian's wife couldn't help laughing when she heard this question: "Dad, you are too anxious. My brother-in-law can't even move his legs!"
"Yes, yes, I was too anxious." Old Patriarch Gu realized that this was indeed the case and felt a little embarrassed.
Gu Xiaoxi answered the question they wanted to know: "It's hard to say when Uncle Yunhai will be able to walk again. It depends on when the wound on his leg heals. Only when he heals can he walk again.
His injury is different from my father's. His has lasted longer, and the recovery time won't be too short."
I say this because I'm afraid they will worry too much.
In fact, Gu Yunhai's leg has recovered quite well. This morning, she waited for Uncle Yuntian to go out and secretly took an X-ray of Uncle Yunhai. She couldn't see any problems for the time being?
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoxi. You are our family's benefactor!" said Grandma Luobo with gratitude on her face.
"Grandma Luobo, you can't say that. I was ignorant in the past few years and caused a lot of trouble to our family. If you hadn't been willing to help us all the time, I don't know what our family would be like." Gu Xiaoxi felt that she needed to repay this favor.
After hearing what Xiaoxi said, Aunt Yuntian finally understood what her father-in-law always said: Good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be punished with evil. It's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet.
Thinking about it this way, she felt that she was really stupid before.
"What you said is too polite! I help you simply because I think your father and your mother are kind people with upright hearts." Old Patriarch Gu really never thought about asking their family to repay any favor.
yes!
Both elders are very kind, and Gu Xiaoxi is very lucky to be born into such a family.
"By the way, old patriarch, how was yesterday's incident handled?" she gossiped.
