Carrying a quilt, cotton clothes, cotton shoes, a kettle and other daily necessities, Gu Zuozuo waited quietly at the door.
"Zuo Zuo! Take it, it's for you!"
Qi Meng squeezed out covered in sweat, his little face flushed red.
He stuffed a blanket into her arms, turned around and squeezed in again without saying anything more.
Gu Zuozuo looked at the bright red and green blanket in her arms and tilted her head. The pattern was so familiar, wasn’t this what grandma’s generation loved the most?
It seems that the dowry quilts of my grandmothers and mothers were all the same.
People were coming and going around, and from time to time someone passing by would look at the girl standing quietly at the door of the store.
"Is it her?"
"Yes, it's her!"
The two men were lying stealthily against the wall, looking at Gu Zuozuo fiercely.
"Is Dadong and Erdong's stupidity really related to this woman?"
The guy with the flat head obviously didn't believe it. The woman looked frail and as white as dough. She looked like a delicate girl who couldn't even lift a hand.
"But Dadong and the others did go to look for this woman, right?"
Bang!
He received a hard slap on his head, which was a mess like a chicken coop, making him grimace in disbelief.
"You're making wild guesses again! Didn't you say it was this bitch who did it?"
The man with the messy hair scratched his shiny head in grievance, still feeling a little unconvinced about being scolded.
"What do you say when Brother Qiang comes back and asks us?"
"What are you talking about? We're only responsible for guarding that room for him. Let's not get involved in anything else. Remember that Dadong treated you to dinner, so you can just take better care of him from now on! Let's go! We need someone there!"
Gu Zuozuo's ears twitched. "Brother Qiang? Dadong?"
Looks familiar?
He curled the corners of his mouth and withdrew his gaze from that place.
"Good cattle, keep an eye on them"
[Okay, host, no problem, host.]
As for his own name, Niu Hao is very straightforward and says whatever you want to call yourself.
Qi Meng and Meng Tian squeezed out from inside with bags of all sizes, and their braided hair was scattered into a mess.
"Huff, huff... I'm so tired, Zuo Zuo, hurry up! Take it!"
Gu Zuozuo had already reached out and carefully took the rope from the two men and placed it on the ground.
"What did you buy?" So many?
"They are all local snacks that we have been eating since we were young, as well as clothes."
They usually wear skirts, so when they go to the countryside to work, they have to buy some clothes that are resistant to dirt and wear.
As he spoke, Qi Meng leaned close to Gu Zuozuo's ear and whispered the news he had received.
"The department store has a batch of defective fabrics. I used my connections to get some for them. I'll share some with you later."
This was the information she got in advance from her neighbor sister. Defective products are very popular, and people who don't have the information can't even touch them.
"Leave some for me too. My mom said we're going to the countryside, where there are all kinds of people. She told us not to show off and to keep a low profile."
Hearing this, Qi Meng nodded. Her grandmother had also told her the same thing, that poor and remote areas produce unruly people, and if you don't want to be plotted against to death, don't be too high-profile.
Gu Zuozuo had a faint smile on her lips as she listened to the two of them talking to her about how keeping a low profile is the right way to go. She just smiled and said nothing.
Sometimes, some things and some people cannot be at peace just because you want them to be like everyone else.
Maybe, the more low-key and transparent you are, the more those people will want to make you restless.
Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is a common human trait.
"I'm going to mail these things over first, what about you guys?"
The two people who were still enthusiastically discussing the 108 ways to keep a low profile looked over with confusion.
"But...can you mail it? Won't it get lost?"
"No, mail it now. We'll leave the day after tomorrow, and it will be ready for delivery when we arrive."
After all, it is the northernmost part, the journey is still quite far, and the freight trains are slower than those carrying people.
The two little sisters slapped their foreheads, making a very crisp sound. Gu Zuozuo felt sorry for their forehead pain when he heard it.
"Great! I was worried about how to carry so many things!"
Qi Mengle was so happy that her in-laws had prepared a lot of things for her. Now she didn't have to carry them all and felt relieved.
"Then let's go back and sort it out! I'll mail your copy as well!"
As they spoke, the two of them carried their things and ran very fast. Their clear voices like silver bells could be heard from a long distance away.
"Zuo Zuo, I'll treat you to braised pork from the state-owned restaurant tomorrow! Don't go out!"
Gu Zuozuo laughed, how could she be so cute?
Find a secluded place to put the things into the space, then take them out and pack them into a large package and send them to the post office.
············
On a dark and windy night, it is time for murder and arson.
Gu Zuozuo stood at the gate, looking at the dilapidated courtyard in front of him with calm eyes.
[Host! Right here! Lots and lots of money!]
Kraus stared at the display on the scanner, where excited codes were running around.
Awww! Its host is going to get rich again!
With a tap of the toes, the black figure floated over the two-meter-high dilapidated wall and stood lightly in the yard.
With green bricks and yellow walls, this place was once a very popular temple, and it was located in the city center.
No one could have imagined that Zhu Qiang would hide half of his wealth here and even find some street thugs to look after it.
I walked silently into the main hall. The Buddha statues were collapsed, spider webs covered the eaves, the ground was full of traces of smashing and looting, and the broken tables and chairs had been corroded and were fragile.
The dust on the ground was almost as thick as a finger, and it was obvious that those people's activities were not here.
