After school in the afternoon, Gu Hongjie walked out of the school with his schoolbag on his back, his steps home heavy.
Unexpectedly, they saw Gu Wei sitting on the recliner by the door, holding the chubby black dragon in his arms.
He was initially incredulous.
I thought I was hallucinating.
After rubbing my eyes, I realized it was true!
His eyes lit up like light bulbs, and he excitedly rushed into the yard, "You didn't leave!?"
Gu Wei scratched the puppy's chin, looked up at him and smiled: "You're so happy that I didn't leave?"
"Of course I'm happy! I didn't see you when I came back at noon! I thought..."
Gu Hongjie's bright smile quickly vanished, and he pursed his lips, asking, "So when are you leaving?"
"Let's wait a few days."
It doesn't matter when I go out.
Gu Wei definitely puts his grandfather and the others first.
What if something unexpected happens while he's away? Wouldn't it be too late for regrets?
Gu Hongjie sighed in a mature and worldly manner, "Fine, then. After all, you're the kind of person who's going to do big things."
Gu Wei couldn't help but chuckle.
It turns out that in Gu Hongjie's mind, he was elevated to such a high level.
How was your first day of school?
"My teachers and classmates are all very nice. My new deskmate is so envious of my pencil case and all those pencils and erasers..."
Gu Hongjie began to talk about school with great enthusiasm.
Gu Wei listened very patiently.
I feel that I made the right decision regarding transferring schools.
In the new environment, Gu Hongjie adapted quickly and thrived even more.
Afterwards, Gu Hongjie took out several newly issued books from his schoolbag and placed them on the kang table.
Gu Wei casually flipped open a book, and a scent of ink wafted towards him.
He really liked the smell and took a deep sniff.
Gu Jianguo brought over some newspapers and old calendars. "Which should we use to cover the books?"
"Let's use a calendar, newspapers aren't very appealing." Gu Hongjie began to carefully select a calendar.
Gu Wei had absolutely no experience in making book covers.
Because by the time he was in school, book covers of various materials and with attractive designs were already available for sale.
Finally, the three of them worked together to cover all the new books with book covers, and they felt a great sense of accomplishment.
Gu Jianguo tidied up the scraps and pieces, glancing at Gu Wei several times with a somewhat complicated expression.
Gu Wei returned in the afternoon and said that he had changed his travel plans and would leave in a few days.
I understand perfectly well that all the reasons are just excuses, and it must be related to the arrival of people from the countryside.
The other kids are worried that they'll get taken advantage of.
Feeling guilty, I felt even more disgusted and resentful towards those people.
No wonder people say that even a rich man in the deep mountains has distant relatives, while a poor man in the bustling city is ignored.
It's only because they see their lives getting better and better that they keep pestering each other to come over.
If things were still like before, no one would bother with someone who is poor and destitute.
The power went out again that night.
Gu Wei didn't know if there was a train to be loaded at the timber yard.
In any case, in 84, having no electricity is a perfectly normal thing.
He's gotten used to it.
None of the four were sleepy, so they played cards in pairs on the kang table in the east room.
Two candlesticks were placed on opposite corners of the table, their flickering candlelight creating a rather romantic atmosphere.
Just as they were fighting fiercely, they suddenly heard someone banging on the door.
The sudden noise startled Li Guizhi, who has a heart condition, and she instinctively clutched her chest.
Gu Hongjie, being sensible, followed his mother's back, his little brows furrowed as he looked into the yard.
Gu Wei and Gu Jianguo threw their playing cards on the table, put on their shoes, and went out of the house.
Who is it?
The banging on the door intensified, but no one answered.
Gu Wei had some guesses in his mind.
Gu Jianguo picked up the large axe that was placed against the wall.
At this moment, Jin Hongfei, who was in the shop, shouted loudly, "Brother Gu, I heard them say that they are the younger sister's brother and sister-in-law, and they are going to use a self-inflicted injury ruse!"
grass!
Gu Wei cursed.
This is hilarious!
"Are you fucking never going to stop?" Gu Jianguo stormed off toward the front door.
Gu Wei quickly followed.
Li Guilong and Guan Xiaolan, who were standing outside the gate, clearly did not expect anyone to be inside the store.
They even exposed Zhang Chunqin's idea right away!
The two hesitated for a short while in a panic before running away.
When Gu Wei and the others opened the gate and went out, the person had already run several meters away.
With old and new grudges intertwined, Gu Jianguo continued his relentless pursuit.
"Didn't you know Guizhi had a heart condition?! Pulling this stunt in the middle of the night! Don't you dare run away! I'm going to give you a good beating today!"
Gu Wei was young and physically strong, and quickly surpassed Gu Jianguo.
Just as he was about to catch up with the person, he delivered a flying kick from behind.
Li Guilong was kicked so hard he fell face-first to the ground.
Guan Xiaolan quit!
"You dare kick my man! I'll fight you to the death!"
She bared her teeth and claws, trying to scratch Gu Wei.
Gu Wei would never allow her to get close.
Gu Jianguo rushed forward and shoved Guan Xiaolan aside with a swift movement!
Gu Wei originally wanted to help.
It turned out that Grandpa's fighting power was off the charts.
Jin Hongfei and Gu Hongjie also caught up.
Upon seeing his acquaintances, the wicked uncle and aunt, Gu Hongjie clenched his fists and glared at them with hatred.
Even though Gu Jianguo was furious, he didn't want to hurt the person, so he stopped when he was almost done, and cursed viciously, "If you dare to come again, I'll break your legs! Get lost!"
