Chapter 197 That Looks Happy
Gu An thought about it carefully and felt that it was true. Some people in the village had good intentions, but like the two neighbors that his eldest brother had before, none of them had good intentions.
If you meet this kind of person, you will get no thanks for your efforts.
"Xiaoxi makes sense. Let's go back to sleep!" The honest Gu Ping nodded.
Gu Changsen helped his father back to the house first.
Gu He saw the father and son go in and sighed, "Hey, I was thinking about finding wives for Changsen and you as soon as possible, but now it seems that this matter will be delayed."
"Brother, I'm old and there's no rush. Let's find one for Changsen first." Gu An quickly put his own marriage aside.
Gu Xiaoxi tried hard not to laugh because she knew that her uncle would definitely be scolded by her father next.
Sure enough, as soon as these words fell, Gu He opened his mouth and cursed Gu An.
When scolded by his elder brother, Gu An just smiled and didn't dare to say a word. He looked happy that way.
yes!
A man who has been away from home for many years and wandered outside for many years still wants to be a teenager when he returns and wants to be loved by his parents.
Now that my parents are gone, it is a kind of happiness to still have my brother scolding me.
Gu Xiaoxi watched this scene and quietly returned to her room to sleep.
…
The next morning, there was a knock on Gu Xiaoxi's door.
When Chai opened the courtyard door and saw Gu Yunju, she guessed that something had happened to the old patriarch.
"Xiaoxi, is Xiaoxi at home?" he asked breathlessly.
"Yes, yes, yes, don't be anxious. What happened?" Chai was very anxious. What happened?
"Last night, several children in the village were kidnapped. Those people surrounded my uncle's house, saying that he was the clan leader and had to take care of it.
But the clan leader is also a human being, so those people started to act unreasonably and made my uncle faint from anger.
It was too late last night, and we felt embarrassed to disturb Xiaoxi, so I hurried over as soon as the sun rose." Gu Yunju wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Gu Xiaoxi also didn't sleep well. She got up when she heard the noise and heard everything they said.
She turned around, picked up the medicine box, and stepped forward and said, "Uncle Yunju, this is no small matter. We can't delay it."
Gu Yunju sighed helplessly and quickly took the person back.
The old patriarch's younger brother and his family already live here. There are many people at home now and it is very lively.
Fortunately, we all live together, otherwise, the old patriarch would have been more than just fainting after what happened last night.
"Here she comes, Xiaoxi is here." Grandma Luobo wiped her tears and stood up by the bed.
Yuntian's wife stepped forward and helped her mother-in-law to the side. Except for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, everyone else went outside to wait.
Mother-in-law Luobo asked her eldest daughter-in-law to close the door, and then came to the bedside.
Just as Gu Xiaoxi was about to step forward to show the old patriarch his presence, the old patriarch exhaled and slowly opened his eyes.
It was obvious that the old patriarch was fine and was just pretending to faint.
"Old Patriarch, what are you doing?" Gu Xiaoxi asked in confusion.
The old patriarch wanted to sit up, and Gu Xiaoxi reached out to help him sit up and talk.
"If I hadn't pretended to be unconscious, who knows what else would have happened last night?
These ungrateful things, when something goes wrong they want to find someone to blame, several shrews are making trouble here, if they continue to make trouble, I can bear it, but you, the carrot mother-in-law, can't stand it either!" He briefly told Gu Xiaoxi what happened yesterday.
Gu Xiaoxi couldn't believe that the old patriarch cared so much about Grandma Carrot. Even in this situation, he still thought about Grandma Carrot's health first.
She smiled slightly and asked, "So what are your plans?"
"The head of the village doesn't want to take care of it anymore. As an old man, I don't have the energy to care about so many things. When the time comes, just tell the people outside that I'm so angry that I can't get up.
In two days, I'll have Yuntian find the elders of the clan and have them choose someone else. Some people are already planning to take me down from this position." Clan leader Gu knew what some people were thinking.
Hearing the old patriarch's answer, Gu Xiaoxi nodded in understanding: "Okay, just figure out what to do."
So she stayed in the house and talked with the old patriarch and Granny Carrot, and it took her almost half an hour to leave the house.
The yard door was open and many villagers came to see what was going on.
Seeing those familiar faces, Gu Xiaoxi pretended to be sad and said, "The old patriarch's health wasn't very good to begin with. I'm afraid he won't be able to get up for a while."
"What, so serious? He was fine last night."
"Yeah, how come you got sick after talking to us so loudly last night?"
"I think so too. Could it be that he's pretending?"
Hearing this, Gu Yuntian flew into a rage, pointing at the man and cursing, "My father is already old, how can he withstand such anger from you?"
"If you don't believe in my medical skills, you can go to the mayor's office and ask a doctor to come and see you." Gu Xiaoxi said this and walked to the corridor next to him and sat down.
When Gu Yuntian heard what Gu Xiaoxi said, he rushed in anxiously to see how his father was doing.
Although Gu Yunhai was able to walk, he still walked very slowly. When he heard that his father's condition was serious, he walked in with the help of a stick.
Why……
Gu Xiaoxi couldn't help but sigh.
No matter how good the old patriarch is, he cannot be liked by every member of the tribe. Being a leader is really not easy.
After a while, an uncle came with an old man.
Gu Xiaoxi had never seen the old man, but she knew the uncle. His name was Gu Dayue. He was of the same generation as her father, but older than her father. He was always unreasonable and not easy to get along with.
Seeing Gu Dayue coming, the villagers immediately came to greet him.
"Brother Dayue is here, who is this?"
"This is the doctor I specially invited back from town. Please ask him to come and see the old patriarch."
"Please, please, please come in!"
Gu Xiaoxi looked at the man's attentive look and roughly understood that he was Uncle Dayue's spy.
This uncle Yue probably wanted the old patriarch to not fall down due to his anger, so he asked the doctor to come and take a look. As long as the old patriarch fell down, he could take over.
snort!
At this point, there is no need to pretend anymore.
Fortunately, Patriarch Gu had foresight, so he took some action before she came out.
However, seeing what happened to the old patriarch, she also thought of something that might happen. She had to go back and discuss it with her parents in advance to prevent it from really happening.
But she couldn't leave now. She wanted to see what the doctor could find out.
The old doctor came out after a while. He didn't look very well and kept shaking his head.
"Doctor Luo, how is the health of our old patriarch?" Gu Dayue deliberately asked loudly.
"The old man is old. It's good enough if he can get up in a few months. He needs someone to take good care of him." Doctor Luo answered word by word.
When the tribesmen heard that old leader Gu would have to lie in bed for several months and might not even be able to get up, they began to talk.
