Chapter 78 There seems to be a dispute



Chapter 78 There seems to be a dispute

He was a handsome man who had hidden in the shadows of flowers at some point in time, his deep phoenix eyes flashing with indescribable teasing.

In her dream, she was frightened out of her wits by the sudden appearance of the figure. She quickly jumped down from the tree, put some oil on her feet and ran away.

When the figure of an unfortunate person falling from a height hurriedly disappeared from her mind, the panic in her heart had not yet subsided, and she suffered an extremely cruel punishment for losing the handkerchief she had carefully sewn for her eldest sister - a slap in the face that was so real that it made people shudder.

She woke up from a nightmare, with indelible red marks on her palms, as if she had really experienced a painful baptism.

However, the dream was absurd and was soon diluted by the failed data of the 36th experiment. Only the pain in the palm of the hand remained real and vivid.

Could it be that the dream she had actually experienced was what the original owner had experienced?

Was her rebirth really a sudden accident?

Everything seems to be getting more and more confusing...

Her heart was surging, but her hands did not stop moving. Mrs. Mo looked at the radishes piled up in small pointed corners on the ground, and her eyes curved into crescents with a smile.

"Xuanxuan, please pick some more. There are still a lot over there. It would be good to pick some and feed the chickens."

Although radishes and cabbages were not worth much, it was difficult to sell them at a good price even after a lot of trouble. The remaining ones could only be taken home to feed the pigs and chickens.

There is no shortage of these common vegetables in the fields of every household in the village, and the only family willing to pay for them is the Xu family.

Mrs. Mo was delighted to think that these soon-to-be-thrown radishes could be exchanged for some copper coins, so she dug with all her might: "Xuanxuan, don't be polite with me. Pull all the radishes here. I'll only charge you twenty cents!"

Gu Yuexuan smiled helplessly and said, "We can't finish too much, this is enough."

She handed the agreed copper coins to Mrs. Mo, then squatted on the ridge and began to sort the radish leaves.

Frost has been falling at night and in the early mornings lately, and the frost-bitten leaves are no longer edible. She carefully removes the mud and yellow leaves, which reduces the weight of the radishes she brings home.

Mrs. Mo enthusiastically helped to load the backpack. Suddenly, she saw a figure approaching from a distance. She uttered a sigh and then said with a smile, "Look at this young couple. They are so inseparable and so affectionate. It's only been a short time since you left, and your wife can't wait to come here."

When Gu Yuexuan heard the sound, she quickly turned her head and saw Tu Subo breathing rapidly.

His clothes were crudely made and looked a bit unsophisticated, but he didn't seem to mind. He strode forward, greeted Mrs. Mo gloomily, and then reached out without hesitation to pick up the basket filled with radishes.

"I'll carry this back first and be right back."

Gu Yuexuan immediately stood up and carefully wiped off the dirt clinging to the edge of the backpack. Her voice was a little stiff: "Next time you come, bring a container so you don't have to run back and forth."

Tu Subo only gave a vague response, but at this moment, Mrs. Mo's envy was beyond words, her tone full of admiration: "Who said it wasn't true? Your husband really knows how to love his wife. Look at him, how careful he is, not wanting you to spend the slightest effort. In our village, this is unique."

Indeed, as long as Tu Subo still has room to bear weight, he will never let Gu Yuexuan have any burden in her hands.

Such a man is rare.

Gu Yuexuan's face flushed, and she lowered her head and whispered, "Sister-in-law really loves to joke."

"This morning I saw Brother Mo helping you wash clothes by the river. Why don't you praise your man?"

Mrs. Mo laughed heartily: "My husband is just a rough farmer. How can he compare to your handsome husband?"

"But then again, you and your wife are both very good-looking. Wouldn't the child you have in the future be as beautiful as an elf? If he looks like his father, I wonder how many beautiful girls will be charmed by him."

"When do you plan to have children?"

Gu Yuexuan never expected that digging a radish would lead to such an inappropriate topic. She smiled awkwardly and looked up, only to find that Tu Subo's back looked a little strange and he seemed a little flustered.

Why is he so panicked?

Tu Subo was flustered and speechless, as if he had turned into a silent load-bearing machine. When he came back the second time, he really brought a container of radishes.

He replaced the backpack with two hanging bamboo baskets and carried all the radishes back home with just one shoulder. Gu Yuexuan only held a small handful of radish leaves in her hand to feed the chickens, as if it was just a symbol.

The atmosphere after returning home was filled with an indescribable awkwardness.

The stable, originally used to raise livestock, was not built for human habitation in the early years. In order to prevent the odor of livestock from interfering with daily life, it was deliberately built a distance away from other houses.

Late last night, everyone who was awake vaguely heard that Gu Yuexuan and Tu Subo seemed to have an argument, but no one could hear the specific content of the argument.

In theory, quarrels and conflicts between couples are normal, but this couple has lived in harmony since their marriage, and this is the first time they have had an argument.

Yu seemed to be hesitant to speak, looking uncertainly at the silent Gu Yuexuan, while Li was just concentrating on the work at hand.

Xi Lanfang looked around and cautiously asked, "Xuanxuan, do these radishes need to be washed? How about I find a bigger basin to wash the mud and sand?"

Gu Yuexuan drank some water and replied, "I've already wiped off most of the mud with leaves. The rest don't need to be washed. Once they get wet, they won't be able to survive in the cellar. We just need to arrange them neatly and put them in the cellar later."

As she picked up the basket, Xi Lanfang instinctively glanced at Tu Subo and asked, "Are you planning to go out again?"

"Let Tu Subo take care of the remaining radishes. You might as well take a rest at home."

She knew very well how annoying her drunk son was, and seeing the obvious dark blue marks under Gu Yuexuan's eyes, her words seemed to lack confidence.

"Tu Subo, go replace Xuan Xuan and let her rest..."

"Mother-in-law, Tu Subo has already brought back all the radishes."

Gu Yuexuan smiled bitterly and said, "It's not too late now. I want to go to the fields on the other side of Qiushan to check it out."

She did not agree with the idea that the land was cursed, but she had never found a suitable opportunity to check the situation on the spot, and today happened to be a suitable day.

After hearing this, Xi Lanfang quickly cast a suggestive look at Tu Subo, and Yu Shi also agreed, "Then you and Tu Subo should set off as soon as possible while it's still light. By the time you return, we'll have dinner ready."

Before Gu Yuexuan could speak, Tu Subo reached out and snatched the basket from her hand.
