Chapter 499 Call Me Uncle



Lao Gao still didn't care at all. He waved his hand and let Qin Zheng do whatever he wanted.

Anyway, he doesn't sleep anywhere else. It doesn't matter where he sleeps or where he lies. When he was working hard, he even slept in an open-air construction site!

And this kid Xun Xiangbin, is he worthy of being paid to stay in a hotel?

At Lao Gao's insistence, and also because Xun Xiangbin had fainted and it was difficult to move, Qin Zheng had no choice but to let them stay at home.

After finishing the work and having dinner, Qin Zheng mentioned to Ye Yun that he wanted to renovate the ancestral home.

"There aren't many people at home now, but if a guest comes or our child is born, there won't be enough space. Before the child is born, we should build a house for him first. Do you think it's okay?"

Okay.

Ye Yun chuckled, "I have no objection, but if we build a house, do we have to demolish the old house we live in now?"

“How can we renovate if we don’t promote it?”

Qin Zheng scratched the back of his head and looked at the house he lived in, feeling a little melancholy: "Although I also think it's a pity to just sell the house, but, if the old doesn't go, the new won't come."

This house was built with the help of everyone in the village moving stones.

The Qin family used to be prosperous and loyal to the villagers. Even after the accident, the villagers still remembered the old times. When building the house, every stone was picked up squarely and solidly, and it was passed down from Qin Zheng's grandfather's generation to Qin Zheng.

This house is nice too.

The terrain is superior, with warm winters and cool summers.

"Are you stupid? We can keep this small house and build a few more houses in the back or next to it." Ye Yun joked and pinched Qin Zheng's face.

Qin Zheng: "But wife, don't you like the big windows in the city?"

Ye Yun raised her eyebrows.

Qin Zheng continued, "Look at the houses we live in in the city. The windows are 1.2 or 1.5 meters wide. The small windows in our village are only 50 centimeters wide, which can only let in air."

"Then open the window again."

“That seems to be the case.”

Qin Zheng suddenly understood.

Ye Yun patted his head, feeling relieved. "It's settled. Let's call it a day. The rest is for tomorrow. We'll do tomorrow's work tomorrow. Let's go to bed today!"

After saying that, she crawled into bed and pulled the quilt over herself tightly.

Qin Zheng didn't think much about it. He followed her instructions and got into bed, covering himself tightly with her out of habit.

He doesn't feel bored and can sleep in any position with his wife in his arms.

The next day, Xun Xiangbin sat in the yard early in the morning in a daze, staring into the distance with empty eyes.

Qin Zheng came out to pour water for washing feet.

Xun Xiangbin looked the same when he came out and when he poured the foot washing water and was about to go back to the house, Xun Xiangbin looked the same.

Qin Zheng wanted to say something when he passed by him carrying a basin, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find anything to say. Finally, he shook his head and turned around to go back to the house.

"Her house is over there."

Suddenly Xun Xiangbin spoke, which frightened Qin Zheng so much that he almost dropped the foot basin on his head.

Qin Zheng silently threw the foot basin to the door and said lightly: "Yeah."

Xun Xiangbin turned his head to look at him, grinned, and politely forced a smile that was uglier than crying. He pointed at the rolling mountains in front of him and said, "From her home to here, there are two mountains to climb."

One mountain after another, rolling and undulating.

The terrain of Heishui Village is higher than that of the neighboring villages, and Lao Qin's house is built on a higher terrain at the entrance of the village. An official road runs from far to near, with the village in sight behind and rolling mountains in front.

There is white snow and dead trees everywhere.

Standing at this angle, it is naturally beautiful if you just look at it with your eyes, but if you are there in person and walk inside, you will understand the confusion and fear of being in such a vast mountain forest.

Xun Xiangbin didn't know how Luo Xiujuan managed to cross two mountains with a child.

After being driven out of her home, did she carry her child on her back and beg for food from house to house, walking through the mountains and forests, crossing the ravines, sleeping under dangerous trees or in dark ditches?

Will she be beaten, scolded or driven away when she begs for food?

Will they encounter mountain rain, lightning, thunder, and strong winds when sleeping in the mountains? How will she, a girl, protect her child and make it through?

Xun Xiangbin didn't dare to think about it.

As soon as he thought of it, his heart began to ache uncontrollably, as if a big hand was tightly grasping his heart. The intense pain almost suffocated him and made his whole body tremble.

The regretful yet irreparable feeling of helplessness made him wish he could die.

If he died, it would be as if nothing had happened. If his death could bring back all this, and make Luo Xiujuan become that innocent and brilliant girl again, and he had never appeared in her life, then he would die without hesitation!

Unfortunately, no.

He had done something wrong and he would spend the rest of his life regretting it.

Qin Zheng just said "oh".

Then he walked into the house without looking back and without even looking at Xun Xiangbin.

The joys and sorrows of human beings are shared.

He just felt that Xun Xiangbin had it all his own fault.

"Qin..." Xun Xiangbin's voice came from behind again, but it stopped abruptly.

Qin Zheng turned his head impatiently.

Apart from Ye Yun's affairs, he easily lost his patience. He was not a good-tempered person.

Xun Xiangbin's eyes twitched when he saw Qin Zheng's bad complexion.

After looking at Qin Zheng for a long time, he still couldn't explain what was going on, which exhausted Qin Zheng's last bit of patience.

"What do you want to say?"

Xun Xiangbin opened his mouth and finally said, "How should I... call you?"

Qin Zheng, "..."
