Chapter 37 I should have asked more questions, I regret it a little
Gu Qijiao didn't respond to Zhu Cui's words, just turned around and left.
She wanted to disgust Zhu Cui, but she had no intention of quarreling with her.
In order to distance herself from the others, Gu Qijiao climbed up the hillside.
I thought about meeting Tong Dixin, who was chopping wood, halfway up the mountain.
Chopping wood was considered a relatively hard job. Generally, the educated youth who were reformed were sent to the mountains to chop wood, which meant they had to go to the pig, cattle and sheep pens to pick out manure, and also to deliver it to the fields.
These are hard, tiring and high-paying jobs.
And chopping wood means you can chop as much as you want, there is a minimum requirement.
We had to cut a certain amount of grass and then we could have dinner at night. Otherwise we could eat wild vegetables or just go hungry.
Although Xie Zhenbei came forward to save Tong Dixin when she was in trouble, that did not mean that she would be punished.
After all, she was caught doing something like that in the woods, and if she were dealt with in any way, it would be hard to convince the public.
Tong Dixin also looked at Gu Qijiao, and she knew that the person who was wearing the clothes on her that night was Gu Qijiao.
There were many people in the village who could afford long gowns, and when Gu Qijiao wore a long gown, she stood out in the village.
Tong Dixin had seen Gu Qijiao wearing that robe in winter.
Although Tong Di knew in her heart why Gu Qijiao wanted to help her, looking at Gu Qijiao, she still forced a smile at her with difficulty.
Smiling is uglier than crying.
There was no light in her eyes, no life in them, and her face was filled with a heavy sense of death.
After being taken away and now without any news, Chen Guidong is the only motivation that supports Tong Dixin to survive.
Looking at the numerous firewoods on the ground, Gu Qijiao sighed helplessly.
This girl was obviously good at this job. Although the wood she chopped was thick, most of it was strong and easy to cut.
If she worked this way, she might have to chop wood for two days to finish the amount of wood she chopped in one day.
Gu Qijiao kindly reminded her:
"Choose trees that are easy to chop. The smoother the tree, the easier it is to chop it. Don't chop trees with rough surfaces."
"Thank you." Tong Dixin whispered and nodded to Gu Qijiao.
Her head was covered with sweat. She had only worked for half a day, but her hands were already covered with blisters.
Gu Qijiao was somewhat puzzled when she saw this. Does this girl come from a good family? How could such a thing happen to her? Why didn't she contact her family?
"After this happened to you, have you contacted your mother? Can you ask them to think of a way to help you?" Gu Qijiao asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, this sentence made Tong Dixin cry. She said with tears in her eyes:
"놇Before I went to the countryside, my parents had already been labeled as bad people, and they were paraded through the streets every day.
They have a hard enough life, if they knew I did something like this, I'm afraid... "
Gu Qijiao frowned when she heard Tong Dixin's words. How come the information this girl said was the same as what she knew in her previous life?
"How long have you been in contact with your mother?" Gu Qijiao thought for a moment and asked.
This time, Tong Dixin was obviously hesitant, but she finally looked around and told Gu Qijiao the truth:
"There was no connection. I came to the countryside in the name of a distant relative's daughter. That relative's real daughter died, and my mother gave that relative some money, took the body back, and buried it in my name.
My parents were afraid that I would be influenced by them, so they sent me to the countryside in this way. They did not allow me to contact them. "
Oh my goodness! After hearing Tong Di's true words, Gu Qijiao opened her mouth in surprise.
I thought to myself that this girl is really brave.
How could such a trivial matter be told to a person like her who has nothing to do with the world so casually?
Gu Qijiao was a little regretful now. She really shouldn't have asked more questions. This matter was too complicated and she should have known.
