Chapter 83 What does Sister Xiaoxi ask me to do for you?
This man is no good under the bed, and he is no good in bed either. He is a complete loser.
Mrs. Mo had always treated this wimp as a fool, but she didn't expect that she would get angry with her today.
The money she has now is not enough to buy a house in the city, and she doesn't want to leave, so she has to coax her.
"Then, then what were you doing at the inn with that Mr. Zhang?" Gu Ximing would rather believe that what he saw was an illusion.
"Mr. Zhang bought a lot of sugar-roasted chestnuts, so he didn't have enough money on him. Of course I was worried that he would run away. Look, I asked for the silver back." After saying this, Mrs. Mo took out some change from her pocket.
"Really?" Gu Ximing said.
"Husband, why would I lie to you? If I really had something going on with that Mr. Zhang, then why would I come back?
After all, he is richer than you." Mrs. Mo did not change her attitude towards the man and turned back to the house.
Gu Ximing thought about it and felt that it was true, so he stepped into the house.
After hearing all this gossip, Gu Xiaoxi knocked on the door of the yard with a basket on her back.
After returning, she went to see Afeng.
Afeng's face was in great pain, and he fell asleep because he was too tired.
"This child is so patient. I guess his face hurts today, otherwise he wouldn't have scratched his hands." Gu Nanming felt sorry for his nephew.
Not only hardworking but also strong, this child cherishes his hard-earned life now.
"Thank you for your hard work, Third Brother, in looking after him." Gu Xiaoxi thanked him.
"We are all family, why are you saying this? You've been tired all day, go back and have a rest!" After Gu Nanming said this, he carried the two baskets of thorny balls on the ground into the next room.
Gu Xiaoxi turned around and went back to the room. Seeing that her two daughters were fast asleep, she returned to her space to take a hot bath, changed into clean clothes and went back to sleep.
In the next few days, she ran to four places: Grandpa Gu Liu's house, her uncle's house, the old patriarch's house, and the mountain.
On the sixth day, the gauze on Afeng's face could be removed.
Early in the morning, after breakfast, Gu Xiaoxi took him to the backyard, sat in the sun, and took off the veil from Afeng's face.
After the veil was removed, the wounds on her face were still healing, but the big scars were gone. Only a few long scars remained, like centipedes lying on the wounds.
Seeing such a scar, Xue felt very nervous and asked worriedly, "Sister, what's on Afeng's face?"
"This is the suture line. After the black scar falls off, the mark will slowly disappear." Gu Xiaoxi explained, carefully checking the condition of each centipede.
She used invisible thread, so there is no need to remove the stitches. All you have to do is wait for the thin black scars to fall off.
Oh oh oh!
Xue nodded after hearing this and asked Afeng, "Afeng, does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore, it's just a little itchy." Afeng really wanted to scratch it, but he held back.
"Don't scratch them. There are winds on your hands, and the wounds will easily become red and swollen after scratching. In a few days, these black scars will fall off, and I will apply other ointments for you." Gu Xiaoxi has already bought a professional scar removal tool for Afeng.
"I understand, Mom. I will definitely not catch him." Afeng nodded.
Gu Xiaoxi explained some details to her third brother and then went out.
Ajin also needs to have the gauze removed today, so she has to go over and take a look.
As for Uncle Yunhai's surgery, she planned to wait until she had dealt with her second brother's affairs and then perform the surgery with peace of mind.
In addition, Uncle Yunhai’s health is indeed a bit poor, so it would be good for him to recuperate for a while longer.
…
The next morning, Gu Xiaoxi followed his third brother and others into the city and handed Afeng and the two daughters to his father and mother.
When they were almost there, she got off the ox cart and separated from her third brother and the others.
Gu Nanming was used to Xiaoxi acting alone. When Xue saw Xiaoxi carrying a basket of herbs, she wanted to know how much silver it could be sold for.
"Don't look at it. All the money Xiaoxi earned from selling the products was spent at home." Gu Dongming knew what his wife was thinking.
Xue nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right. Our family's life is much better than many people's these days. We can't say we have meat every meal, but at least we can have rice with every meal."
"That's good to know. Let's go. Let's sell out quickly and go home quickly." Seeing that his wife knew how good his sister was, Gu Dongming didn't say much.
Xue suddenly discovered that she and her husband rarely quarreled recently, and their relationship seemed to be much better.
Now that I think about it, the reason for their previous quarrels was mostly because of my sister-in-law. Now that my sister-in-law has become a better person, they are no longer bound by each other, so they don’t quarrel anymore.
That’s great!
Only when they live in harmony can they feel like a family.
I thought about how I was confused before, and sometimes I even confronted my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law is a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
"Husband, I will definitely be filial to my parents-in-law and be good to my sister-in-law in the future." She said suddenly with emotion.
Gu Dongming turned his head to look at his wife and smiled in a very good mood.
Gu Xiaoxi stood in the dark, watching the loving look of her elder brother and sister-in-law, and smiled with satisfaction.
It was still early, so she went to the pharmacy carrying the herbs.
He sold some of the extra herbs he had, collected the money, and left the pharmacy.
After leaving the pharmacy, she looked for a place to enter the space.
After returning to the space and changing her appearance, she went to the entrance of the academy. When the academy opened, she called out to Chen Qinian.
Chen Qinian followed the sound and saw a familiar face.
Gu Xiaoxi disguised herself as she did when they went to buy dried tofu. Chen Qinian recognized her and quickly ran over.
Gu Xiaoxi waited for Chen Qinian to come over and asked in a low voice, "Where's the carriage? Let's leave here first."
Chen Qinian called Chen San, asked his brothers to help at the stall, and then took Sister Xiaoxi to the carriage.
In the carriage, he asked excitedly, "Sister Xiaoxi, are you going to buy dried tofu again?"
"I'm not going to buy dried tofu. I want to ask you for a favor." Gu Xiaoxi couldn't find a suitable person to help for the time being, so she found Chen Qinian.
The main reason is that this guy is loyal and has no connection with the people around her.
"Are you going to fight again?" Chen Qinian's face was full of anticipation.
"Stop thinking about fighting, okay?" Gu Xiaoxi glared at the boy.
After hearing this, Chen Qinian pursed his lips and said depressedly, "You don't know, my internal strength hasn't improved for a long time. When my eldest brother comes over in a few days, I think I'll be skinned alive."
"Is it because you didn't practice hard enough?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.
"No, I'm not interested in studying, but I'm quite interested in practicing. However, I don't know why, even though I've tried so hard, my internal strength hasn't improved much.
My second uncle hired several doctors for me, but they couldn't find any problem. "Chen Qinian talked about the problem that had been bothering him for years.
Gu Xiaoxi chuckled after hearing this.
"Sister Xiaoxi, what are you laughing at?" Chen Qinian expressed his confusion.
"What do you think?" Gu Xiaoxi tilted her head and looked at Chen Qinian.
Meeting Sister Xiaoxi's gaze, Chen Qinian waved his fingers in the air as if he suddenly understood something.
"Well, then I'll help you take care of this matter. Can you let me take a look?" He felt that he was too stupid. Sister Xiaoxi's medical skills must be better than those of the previous people.
"Deal!" Gu Xiaoxi felt that this was just like getting a pillow for free when sleeping.
She had been thinking about how to ask Chen Qinian for help in repaying the favor, but now she has found a way.
Seeing that Sister Xiaoxi agreed, Chen Qinian quickly asked, "So, what can Sister Xiaoxi do for me?"
"Catching an adulterer!" Gu Xiaoxi spat out two words.
