Chapter 3: Stop crying for money, the child is taken care of by the Zhao family
Gu Wanxing took out the box from the innermost part of the bottom layer of the cabinet and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Before opening the clothing store, she asked Zhao Chengyan to raise some money, but he didn't have a penny.
Not to mention the money in the passbook, I think it should have been given to Gu Yuerou.
Thinking of this, a mocking arc appeared on the corner of her mouth.
It's really a bitch and a dog. Let them be a pair forever and ever. Just lock them up.
Looking at the box with exquisite patterns in her hand and smelling the special fragrance, Gu Wanxing's almond-shaped eyes were filled with nostalgia. If she said that the things inside were valuable, it would be better to say that the box was more valuable.
Huanghuali wood, also known as Dalbergia odorifera, has a light and elegant fragrance and its patterns resemble ghost faces, making it a very special species.
She boldly guessed that her mother's family conditions must be very good. Anyway, when she was a child, she only heard that her grandmother's family was in Kyoto. When she asked more questions, her mother said that there was no one at home.
She didn't know the specific situation.
Because her biological mother died thirteen years ago, all she knew was that she was an educated youth who went to the countryside. She married her father in the first month because she couldn't find a job, and then gave birth to her prematurely in the same year of her marriage.
All that was left for her was this box and a watch, and even her father didn't know about their existence.
Putting away her wandering thoughts, Gu Wanxing opened the box, and inside were the two small yellow croakers and the emerald bracelet that she had sold in her previous life.
I picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully through the window. It looked like liquid was flowing inside, which was very beautiful.
These were all her belongings. She sold them for a total of 11,500 yuan, and she used the money to open her first clothing store.
But what she was selling was the things inside. She gave the box to the other person for free at first. It was only after she became rich that she realized that the box was the most valuable.
Thinking of everything that happened in his past life, Gu Wanxing felt infinite sadness in his heart.
In fact, if you make the wrong choice, it is the wrong choice. There is no point in thinking about it over and over again. It is impossible for every choice in life to be correct. Fortunately, she has the opportunity to choose again, so she must cherish it.
However, whenever she thought of those two beasts, she found it difficult to breathe. She wanted them to also experience the feeling of suffocation on the verge of death.
Gu Wanxing was so focused on his thoughts that he didn't notice that the person on the bed had woken up.
The little person looked at his mother's back thoughtfully.
"Mom~"
Hearing the voice, Gu Wanxing paused and did not respond immediately. Instead, she hurriedly closed the box. She didn't want Zhao Chao to see these, even though she was very young now.
Maybe he was too anxious and used too much force, so the box was closed heavily with a snapping sound.
Then she felt a sharp pain in her index finger, causing her to gasp.
"Hiss~"
When I looked down, I found that my fingertips were broken.
A piece of skin was pinched off the tip of her index finger, and bright red blood was oozing out. She quickly put the box down and prepared to find a piece of cloth to tie it up.
What Gu Wanxing didn't see was that the bloodstains that her fingers rubbed on the edge of the box were actually absorbed by the box.
It even emitted a faint light.
"Mom, I'm thirsty." Zhao Chao stared at her without blinking with his dark eyes.
However, Gu Wanxing pretended not to see it. He frowned slightly, handed over a glass of water with a calm expression, and changed the subject:
"Drink it yourself."
She was busy bandaging her finger and didn't even look at Zhao Chao.
In her previous life, maternal love was like a heart covered in lard. Little Zhao Chao's appearance combined all the advantages of hers and Zhao Chengyan. He was born as cute as jade, and everyone who saw him would praise him.
So no matter what Zhao Chao did, she thought it was the child's curiosity and attachment to his mother.
She wrapped her fingers, turned around, and looked at the tiny person on the bed...
Now she clearly realized that Zhao Chao was a member of the Zhao family, a close relative, and had Zhao blood flowing in his bones. Compared to her, this child was closer to the Zhao family.
"Sister-in-law, I heard Chao Chao woke up, come over to check."
Just then, there was a sound of a door being pushed open outside.
But she locked the door, and Zhao Chengfang outside couldn't push it open.
"Open the door—"
Zhao Chengfang knocked on the door restlessly.
Bang, bang, bang—
Gu Wanxing simply went to the door and opened it for her.
Her calm eyes watched Zhao Chengfang walk towards Zhao Chao with a smile, and she sneered in her heart.
What a nest of snakes and rats.
"Chao Chao, how do you feel?"
"Oh, sister-in-law, why don't you change Chao Chao's clothes? They are all wet."
"Oh my god, why is it so hot?"
Zhao Chengfang kept exclaiming and screaming, his tone full of blame.
"I fainted when I came back, and just woke up. Isn't this looking for clothes for her?"
Gu Wanxing spoke casually and began to rummage through the cabinet slowly.
When she was about to take the opportunity to put the box away, she found that the box was hot?
With a bang, the box fell on the high and low cabinets again, attracting the attention of the aunt and nephew beside the bed.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Chengfang looked at the flustered figure and felt very annoyed. This sister-in-law was really not good at anything except being good-looking and easy to talk to.
It’s no wonder her brother doesn’t like her. She looks like a vixen, but she doesn’t know how to act coquettishly to please a man. She deserves to be cheated on by her brother.
"This box is a bit heavy. I wonder what your brother put in it." Gu Wanxing responded casually.
But his hand touched the box again. In just a short while, it was no longer very hot, but warm.
This shocked her, and she was anxious to know what was going on, but it was not convenient to do so now.
This time, Gu Wanxing did not delay any longer, but took out Zhao Chao's small clothes from another cabinet.
Staggering to the bedside, he said, "Please dress her. I'm very dizzy."
After Gu Wanxing finished speaking, he sat down on the bed, leaned against the headboard and closed his eyes to rest.
Zhao Chengfang frowned slightly, feeling that something was strange, but he couldn't tell what it was. In short, Gu Wanxing was a little weird today.
"Sister-in-law, this won't do. We need to send Chao Chao to the hospital. Look at how red her face is. I feel her temperature is probably 39 degrees Celsius."
Now her attention is all on her niece, and she has no time to think further. She probably feels resentful because her brother is not around after the flood.
It will be fine after a few days.
"Hmm~" Gu Wanxing responded in a soft voice.
Zhao Chengfang quickly changed her niece's clothes, thinking that Gu Wanxing would get up and take the child to the hospital.
But I found that she had fallen asleep leaning against the headboard.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law?"
Zhao Chengfang was speechless. He walked forward and pushed Gu Wanxing, but unexpectedly found that she also had a fever.
She glared at Gu Wanxing fiercely, thinking he deserved it.
It would have been fine if Gu Wanxing had a fever, but the child was her old Zhao family's child, so she searched Gu Wanxing's body for a while, felt the money, and then picked up the drowsy Zhao Chao and went out.
As she walked out, she was cursing and muttering about her elder brother who was having dinner with another woman outside.
The footsteps of the aunt and nephew were getting farther and farther away, accompanied by the cursing voice of Liu Xifeng outside and the sound of the door being locked.
Only then did Gu Wanxing open his eyes.
It seems that even without her, Zhao Chao would not die, as she still has the Zhao family.
At that time, when she borrowed money everywhere, only the village party secretary's wife lent her twenty yuan. She used that money to send Zhao Chao to the hospital.
Remembering how hot the box was, she had to get up quickly and take the box out again.
The temperature is not that hot now. I opened the box and found that the things inside were gone.
Gu Wanxing was shocked. He searched inside and out and had to accept the fact that it was really gone.
