Chapter 26 Do you believe it now?
"White, whiteboard!" Gu Xiaoxi thought she had seen it wrong, rubbed her eyes, opened her eyes wide and looked again, and it was indeed a whiteboard.
Baiban actually returned to the yard last night. He waited for his owner in the woods for a long time, and decided to go home and wait because he couldn't wait any longer.
In the morning, when it saw that its owner had not returned yet, it wandered around nearby. It just smelled blood and ran back.
Two wolves covered in blood were lying on the ground in the yard, circling around their prey.
Hearing its owner's voice, it happily walked forward and threw itself into its owner's arms.
"That's great, you actually followed me, woooo... That's great, I'm finally not alone anymore." Gu Xiaoxi hugged the white board tightly.
Woo woo woo…
The whiteboard made a humming sound. God knows how much it missed its owner's return.
After Gu Xiaoxi came to her senses, she said, "Are you hungry? I'll make you some dog food."
Woohoo…
Whiteboard lay obediently on the ground and wagged his tail vigorously.
Gu Xiaoxi got some dog food for Baiban, then sat on a small stool in the yard. She looked at Baiban eating the dog food and said, "Don't bark. There's a patient inside. We've moved to another place. If you have nothing to do, just walk around nearby. Don't go too far."
Woof!
Baiban barked softly a few times and continued to eat dog food.
Gu Xiaoxi went into the room to check on the guy and gave him some sleeping pills just in case before leaving the space with peace of mind.
Walking through the forest, she continued to look for medicinal herbs, but found a chestnut tree in the forest ahead.
The tree is full of fruits, but the thorny balls are hard to peel.
Never mind!
It’s also good to bring it back as a snack for the children.
Thinking of this, she put down the backpack, climbed up the tree, and shook hard on the branches.
Boom boom boom!
The thorn balls fell to the ground one by one, and in a short while, they were all over the ground.
She looked up at the chestnut tree and saw that there were still many fruits on it. She shook it vigorously for a while until all the thorns on the tree were gone, and then she climbed down.
It would definitely not be possible to carry so many fruits back, so she planned to carry a basket and put the rest into the space, and then slowly move them back home later.
The thorny balls were difficult to hold in her hands, so she found a broom and a bucket from the yard and threw all the chestnuts into the space yard.
After walking a little further, I found that the forest not only had wild chestnut trees, but also wild pear trees.
The pear tree was not very big. I reached out and picked one, wiped it with my clothes, and took a bite.
Oh no!
That's so sweet!
have to!
She needed such a pear tree, so she made up her mind and went to the space warehouse to find some tools and started digging.
Even if the tree is not very tall, it still takes time to uproot it.
Finally, when it was almost dark, she dug out the pear tree and carried it back to the space.
There are many pits in the space forest. These were all dug with my master before. I originally planned to plant fruit trees. I didn’t expect that even after I bought the saplings, I would not have the chance to plant them.
After planting the pear tree in the space, she hurried out of the space carrying a basket on her back and reached the foot of the mountain in one breath.
Finding a deserted place, she filled her backpack with chestnuts, and took out a small wicker basket from the space and filled it with pears.
He covered the pears with large leaves and then walked around to his home.
The Gu family hadn't seen Gu Xiaoxi return yet, so they asked the two brothers to go out and look for her.
In order to avoid the two neighbors, Gu Xiaoxi took a detour to the backyard.
The door to the backyard has been installed. My uncle is really fast.
Boom boom boom!
She knocked hard twice.
I thought everyone was in the front yard at this time, but I didn't expect someone to open the door.
When Gu An saw his niece coming back, he quickly ran to the front yard and shouted, "Brother and sister-in-law, Xiaoxi is back."
Before Gu Xiaoxi could even say hello, she saw that her uncle had disappeared. Fearing that something had happened, she quickened her pace and followed him.
Seeing his daughter return safe and sound, Gu He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "You're finally back. You were gone for a whole day and everyone was worried sick."
"Dad, Mom, don't worry about me when I go out in the future. I'm good at running. Unless I want to, even my three brothers combined can't be my match." After Gu Xiaoxi finished speaking, he put the backpack on the ground and gestured a few times in the yard.
Gu He and his wife thought Xiaoxi's skills were just mediocre, while Gu An couldn't help laughing beside them.
Seeing that his parents and uncle didn't believe him, Gu Xiaoxi picked up a stone from the ground and punched it.
Bang!
The stone cracked, and the three of them widened their eyes in surprise.
"Xiaoxi, where did you learn this skill?" Gu An asked curiously.
"I've become your disciple, haven't you? Do you believe it now?" Gu Xiaoxi dusted off her hands and took out three pears from the basket and gave them to them: "Dad, Mom, Uncle, these pears are so sweet, you guys have some."
After giving them the pears, she moved the basket aside and poured the thorny balls inside onto the ground.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu were overjoyed to see their daughter was so capable. They took a bite of the pear and found it very sweet. They both laughed.
After a while, Gu Dongming and his wife came back with Dani, and Gu Nanming came back with his two daughters, Gu Xiaoxi.
"Mom!" Gu Bingxue and Gu Ruixue ran over and hugged their mother.
Gu Xiaoxi kissed the two children and said, "Come with uncle to wash your hands. There are pears in the basket. They are very sweet. Take one each."
Seeing so many chestnuts and a basket of pears, Gu Dongming was surprised and asked, "Sister, where did you find these? We found a chestnut tree before, but it was all plucked in less than an afternoon."
"Yes, everyone in the village has gone up the mountain, and now we have to rob to buy mountain products," said Gu Nanming.
"It's halfway up the mountain. I don't think anyone has gone up there." Gu Xiaoxi replied.
"Halfway up the mountain? How did you climb up there?" Xue looked at her sister-in-law in disbelief.
"I became a disciple of a master and learned not only medicine but also some kung fu. It's not easy for you to go up the mountain, but it's very easy for me." After Gu Xiaoxi finished speaking, he looked at the chestnuts on the ground and an idea emerged in his mind.
She looked up at her mother and said, "Mom, go and cook. Uncle will stay for dinner. I have something to tell you later."
"I, I won't eat." Gu An knew that his eldest brother's family didn't have much food.
"Uncle, just treat me as your eldest niece and listen to me." Gu Xiaoxi said seriously.
Chai also felt that it was inappropriate for the third brother to work and never stay for dinner, so she insisted, "Third brother, your eldest niece is right, just listen to her."
Gu An looked at his sister-in-law, then at his elder brother, before nodding in agreement.
Cooking takes time, so he went to the backyard to work.
Gu Nanming followed, and Gu Xiaoxi asked Gu Dongming and Xue to help pry out the chestnuts.
These are wild chestnuts, and they should be very fragrant when cooked.
After prying the chestnuts for a while, Gu Xiaoxi returned to the room, took out some brown sugar from the space warehouse, and then took some chestnuts to the kitchen to see if he could make his ideal delicacy.
