Feng Chao looked at Gu Shi with some fear, thinking of the rumors circulating in the village.
He is cursed because his father, mother, and sister all died. Now he lives alone in a haunted house at the east end of the village with his sister's son.
It's the house where his parents passed away.
However, he still forced himself to say, "Anyway...anyway, it wasn't obtained legitimately!"
Lin Qingyu looked at Feng Chao with some helplessness, just as she was thinking of saying a few words in defense of Gu Shi, when she heard Gu Shi's voice with a smile.
"So, is Teacher Feng looking down on us farmers? Does he think that ordinary farmers like us can't earn that much money with our own hands?"
Some time ago, it was rumored in Lihua Village that after Gu Shi's sister passed away, his brother-in-law's family gave him 500 yuan, and even gave him the child instead.
Everyone is speculating whether Gu Shi accepted the five hundred yuan, and most people believe he did.
Otherwise, how could he still be supporting his sister's children?
Moreover, just two days ago, Gu Shi asked a matchmaker to propose marriage again, and the bride price was exactly five hundred yuan. It's hard not to think about it.
Feng Chao was speechless, staring at Gu Shi with his mouth agape.
Lin Qingyu was also somewhat moved. In her previous life, she only learned later that Gu Shi was exceptionally capable and had earned a lot of money.
In her previous life, in order to earn more money to supplement her family's income, she specifically found a part-time job at night, working in a 24-hour supermarket.
When she first met the supermarket owner, she learned that the supermarket was owned by Gu Shi.
I also learned that he has never been married.
So the moment she saw Gu Shi, she couldn't help but wonder why he hadn't gotten married in his previous life.
However, no one can probably answer this question for her.
Lin Qingyu smiled, glanced at Gu Shi, and then said to Feng Chao, "Alright, Teacher Feng, class should be starting soon! We won't bother you any longer."
There were indeed a few children at the school gate next door.
Feng Chao noticed that all the teachers in the school had come to the school gate, probably having also seen what had just happened.
He composed himself a bit, straightened his clothes, and spoke awkwardly.
"Xiaoyu, you go home first! I'll come find you after school and we can have a good talk."
After speaking, he didn't even glance at Gu Shi before turning and walking into the school.
Lin Qingyu didn't bother with him. Seeing that there were more and more students, she called Gu Shi to leave together.
After walking for less than two minutes, a fork in the road appeared in front of us.
One of them lived at the east end of the village, and the other at the west end.
"Let me take you home!"
Gu Shi spoke first, but Lin Qingyu refused, wanting to distance herself.
"No need, it's closer to your home from here, I can go back by myself, no need to trouble you to make the trip."
Ignoring Gu Shi's hesitant expression, she finished speaking and left.
She walked rather quickly because she was in a hurry to get home.
When I finally got home, I felt a little dizzy again. No one was home; they had all gone to work.
She forgot that there was a stranger living in her house. When she got to the small mud-brick house, she pushed the door hard, but it wouldn't budge.
Only then did Lin Qingyu realize that Wu Lili was still living here.
"Open the door! Open the door!"
She didn't tolerate it and started banging on the door hard, but because she hadn't eaten yet, she didn't have the strength to shout.
Lin Qingyu patted the door several times, and even the neighbor's dog started barking, before Wu Lili reluctantly opened it.
Why did you lock the door?
"I was taking a nap, and who knew you'd be coming home instead of working at midday!"
"This is my home. It's none of your business when I want to come back, right?"
"you……"
Lin Qingyu was too lazy to argue with her, so she simply pulled her out and said impatiently.
"I'm not going to work because I'm injured. Why aren't you going to work either, Wu Zhiqing? Don't you want your work points anymore?"
"I……"
"You overslept! Well, it's too far from where you work. The educated youth settlement is closer."
Wu Lili stared at Lin Qingyu in disbelief, wondering what else she wanted to say, but she had a feeling it wasn't anything nice.
"I remember three educated youths just returned to the city a while ago! Why don't you move back? Otherwise you'll always oversleep and won't earn enough work points, and you'll have to make up for it next year!"
"What did you say?"
Wu Lili finally had a chance to interject. She was living so comfortably here, why should she leave now?
She doesn't need to cook every day, and someone helps her wash her clothes; Lin Qingyu will do it all anyway.
But what is Lin Qingyu saying now?
Should we have her move back to the former educated youth settlement?
Although it was just a few bungalows, it was cold in winter and hot in summer, and besides, she didn't know how to cook.
If she really goes there, how will she survive?
"Alright, alright, Wu Zhiqing, you should hurry up and go, or you won't earn any work points if you go late!"
Lin Qingyu pushed the person directly outside the yard, locked the gate, and ignored Wu Lili who was still shouting outside before going back inside.
The neighbor's dog was still barking, probably because it was starving, and it was baring its teeth at Wu Lili.
Wu Lili was also afraid of this dog; she had almost been bitten before. At this moment, she didn't care about anything else and ran away as fast as she could.
After entering the room, Lin Qingyu looked at the things in front of her with a headache.
This used to be a storage room, but now it's filled with Wu Lili's dirty clothes and some unused farm tools.
Lin Qingyu threw all of Wu Lili's things into a pile, packed them up, and then made her own bed.
She quickly washed up and found some leftover porridge in the kitchen, which was just a bowl of very thin rice water.
At least it's something that can fill your stomach.
After eating, she lay down on the bed and, because so much had happened that day, she quickly fell asleep.
After Lin Qingyu fell asleep, she suddenly found herself back in the supermarket from her previous life.
But it also felt very real. She strolled around the supermarket, and it was no different from her previous life, except that there was no one around.
The items on the shelves have a very realistic tactile feel.
She walked past rows of shelves, wondering if there was really no one here, but as soon as she entered the place, she felt a little scared.
After browsing the entire supermarket, I found that everything inside was exactly the same as in my previous life, without any difference.
Gradually, Lin Qingyu sensed something was wrong. She picked up a piece of bread, opened the packaging, took a bite, and found it had a rich milky aroma.
After finishing a piece of bread, Lin Qingyu felt less hungry and belatedly realized that she might not be dreaming.
She pinched her thigh hard; it hurt.
Not knowing what was going on, Lin Qingyu began to feel anxious and thought about going back to her room.
Unexpectedly, he appeared on his own bed the next moment.
