Chapter 178 You Are the One Who Suffers
"That's easy. Give me some money and I'll talk to you!" Gu An knew that this guy was not short of money, but Xiaoxi and the others were.
"That's fine. How much is appropriate?" Chen Shiliu asked.
Gu An did not give Chen Shiliu an immediate reply. He had to ask Xiaoxi's opinion on this matter.
"I'll tell you when I think about it," he said.
Chen Shiliu nodded.
Not far away, Chen San helped Chen Qinian up, Gu Feng brought a chair over and asked Chen Qinian to sit down, and Bingxue served him a cup of tea.
Chen Qinian drank a cup of tea and looked at Gu Xiaoxi with a wronged look on his face: "Sister Xiaoxi, that woman is really too much."
"It's not too much to say that I didn't cripple you." Gu Xiaoxi said calmly.
Chen Qinian...
I dare not say anything.
Gu Xiaoxi called Chen Qinian and Ma Weiwei to his side, asked them to look at the picture drawn by Ruixue, and explained to them the problems they both encountered.
Ma Weiwei also used the same light skills, but even when she ran faster, her steps did not become disordered, which was quite good.
After talking about Qinggong, Gu Xiaoxi decided to start teaching everyone a set of boxing techniques in a few days.
My eldest brother and the others have been practicing for a while. Although their foundation cannot be compared with Chen Qinian and the others, they have at least gained some experience.
After finishing his talk, Gu Xiaoxi went to the front yard to check on other patients.
My second uncle has been recuperating these past two days, and his wounds are healing better than before.
"Uncle, if you keep up this, you'll be able to walk in less than half a month." Gu Xiaoxi was very satisfied with his uncle's cooperation over the past two days.
When Gu Ping heard that the wound had healed well, a smile appeared on his face.
Gu He and Gu An felt better after hearing this. They both wanted to see Gu Ping live a good life. Gu Ping had suffered so much in the first half of his life.
After coming out of his second uncle's room, Gu Xiaoxi originally wanted to talk to Chen Qinian about building a house, but was stopped by his uncle.
"Xiaoxi, I want to discuss something with you." Gu An ran out of the house.
Gu Xiaoxi stopped and stepped forward and asked, "Uncle, tell me."
Gu An lowered his voice and said, "Sixteen also wants to learn that Qinggong from you. Can you teach me? If so, how much do you plan to charge?"
Uncle Sixteen also wants to learn that set of Qinggong?
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi suddenly had an idea: "We all know each other so well, it's really hard to collect the money. How about asking him to build Second Uncle's house?"
After saying that, she winked at her uncle slyly.
Gu Anyi's eyes lit up and he said, "This method is good, but you will suffer a loss!"
"I'm not at a disadvantage. When we were having a hard time before, my second uncle, despite the pressure, secretly lent us five taels of silver. I should say he gave five taels of silver to my father, and he told my father that he didn't have to pay it back.
Later, that woman insisted on leaving us.
Second Uncle is so good to us. Not only can I give him a house, I have even paid for Brother Changsen's wedding." Gu Xiaoxi felt that this kindness could not be repaid with money. Besides, doing this would make her parents happy, which was better than buying them anything else.
Gu An felt warm in his heart when he looked at his eldest niece.
Seeing the satisfied look in his uncle's eyes, Gu Xiaoxi said, "Uncle, I have some money now. I'll pay for your wedding. I'll find you a wife in a few days."
"No, no, no, I, I don't need the money." Gu An shook his head vigorously.
"But you need a wife!" Gu Xiaoxi said and turned away.
Gu An raised his hand, but before he could finish his words, his niece disappeared.
Gu He walked out of the house with his hands behind his back. His nose felt a little sore when he heard his daughter's words. This child is really becoming more sensible.
…
For several days afterwards, apart from taking care of household chores, Gu Xiaoxi would go to the tree hole every day to take a look.
I've been waiting for several days but there's still no news?
Did something happen to Shadow Three and Shadow Four?
That's not right!
She has never met the two of them before, so she needs to meet them.
So she put another note in the tree hole.
When the afternoon came, a piece of paper appeared in the tree hole, with the time for meeting the next morning written on it.
When it was time to meet the next day, Gu Xiaoxi came to the woods where Ye Lixuan usually appeared, and saw one of the shadows in the woods.
"Are you Shadow Three or Shadow Four?" she asked directly.
"Miss, the younger one is Ying Si. Ying San went to the town to inquire about the news and hasn't come back yet." Ying Si replied to Gu Xiaoxi.
When Gu Xiaoxi heard that he had been gone for so long, she said worriedly, "It's been a bit long. This is too strange."
"I understand. I'll go now." Ying Si also felt something was wrong, but he was worried that the girl would ask him for help with something, so he didn't dare to leave.
Now that he had spoken, he bowed and turned to leave the woods.
Gu Xiaoxi watched Ying Si leave and returned home.
Her elder brother and his friends are not going to set up the stall today, so she plans to take Chen Qinian and Ma Weiwei to the city.
The two of them have lived here for a while, and it's time for them to go back and stay for a few days.
When she told the two of them about this, they were extremely reluctant. In the end, due to the pressure from Gu Xiaoxi, they obediently followed her into the carriage.
Gu Xiaoxi cannot stay overnight in the city, otherwise her second uncle's health will get worse.
In the morning, several people drove a horse-drawn carriage into the city. Gu Xiaoxi asked them to go home and she went to the dental clinic alone.
I asked at the pawnshop and learned that an ordinary maid would get five taels of silver, a literate maid would get eight taels of silver, and a maid who was both literate and had some martial arts skills would get ten taels of silver.
Ten taels of silver was not a bad amount, she could accept it.
So, she picked out two from several pharmacists who had some martial arts skills and some knowledge of pharmacology.
As for the rest, I can go back and teach them slowly.
She named the two girls Xia Yu and Qiu Shuang. Qiu Shuang was two years older and looked more stable, while Xia Yu was a few years younger and a little more lively.
That’s good. She is quite satisfied with the two of them.
At least the two of them could take care of the patient while she was away.
After buying two maids, she took them to the cloth shop.
I bought two sets of coarse cloth clothes for the two girls at the cloth shop, and bought a few bundles of coarse cloth to make clothes for my second uncle and brother Changsen.
It’s not that she is reluctant to spend money on good fabrics, but she has no use for good fabrics when doing housework.
In addition to coarse cloth, they also bought a lot of cotton. Each of the three of them carried a large basket of things and came to the city gate.
After leaving the city gate in a carriage, she returned to the village entrance and called the two of them to the nearby woods to tell them the rules for returning home.
"Remember this, if you break the rules, I will find a way to catch you no matter where you are." After she said that, she drew a talisman in the air and threw it at the big tree next to her.
Boom!
The big tree was almost uprooted, and the two girls opened their eyes wide with fear.
"I'm a ruthless person and I don't talk much. I ask you to only say it once. If you can't remember it, you will bear the consequences yourself!" After she said that, she walked out of the woods with a basket on her back.
