Chapter 847: You Don’t Need to Inherit My Family’s Golden Finger (13)
"Qiansu, why do you want to come here? There is no place to build a farmhouse in this village, unlike our village..." Zhou Liwen asked Li Qiansu in some confusion. She originally wanted to take Li Qiansu to experience the farmhouse near her home today, but unexpectedly Li Qiansu said she wanted to take a walk everywhere, and as a result, they came to the next village.
Li Qiansu looked around and answered absentmindedly when she heard Zhou Liwen's question: "Didn't we see a small white building when we passed by it yesterday? I want to take a closer look."
"Are you really interested in buildings? I thought you were just talking." Zhou Liwen sighed, "Hasn't your house been renovated?"
"The renovation doesn't prevent me from appreciating the beauty of other houses." Li Qiansu answered casually.
"We have to walk a little further to find the house. It's probably not far ahead." Zhou Liwen hasn't spent much time at home for several years since she was admitted to a university in another city through the college entrance examination. In recent years, the rural area has developed rapidly, and she no longer knows the area near her home very well.
"Have you been around here before?" Li Qiansu wanted to find out something from Zhou Liwen.
"I came here when I was a kid. I was young at that time and ran around with my friends. We could play and visit several villages in a day. The villages near us were not that big..." Zhou Liwen said with some nostalgia, "Everyone was very poor at that time. We had no money to buy snacks, so we secretly climbed other people's fruit trees and stole other people's fruits to eat. We were chased by their dogs..."
Li Qiansu smiled dryly: "That's really quite childish."
"Ah! We're here! That little building is in front of us. Qiansu, can you see it?" Zhou Liwen just looked up and saw the little building a hundred meters ahead, looking holy and mysterious under the morning sun. She couldn't help but sigh, "This building is indeed well decorated. No wonder you've been thinking about it so much. Now that it's bathed in the sun and looking at it like this, I can't help but be moved. I want my parents to change our house into something like this."
Li Qiansu was looking at the small white building shrouded in morning light with some white mist still remaining around it. It was like a holy palace standing on the top of a high mountain cliff. Her soul seemed to have been captured by this small building and she couldn't even walk.
"Qiansu? Qiansu? Why did you stop?" Zhou Liwen saw Li Qiansu staring at the small building in a daze, looking as if she was out of her mind, so she called her a few times hurriedly.
Li Qiansu's soul was finally called back by Zhou Liwen. She shuddered, then smiled at Zhou Liwen and said, "I was just stunned and stopped without realizing it. Let's go and take a look now. Maybe we can get the owner's consent to let us go in and visit."
"I'm glad you're okay." Zhou Liwen breathed a sigh of relief.
The two soon arrived at the gate of the small building, but the gate was locked and did not open. Li Qiansu and Zhou Liwen looked at each other. Zhou Liwen looked at the watch and found that it was only a little after nine in the morning. She whispered to Li Qiansu: "It's too early now. Maybe the owner of the house hasn't gotten up yet."
Li Qiansu asked, "Don't people in the countryside usually get up very early? When I was a child, everyone in my family got up very early."
Although she followed her parents to the city to make a living and study since she was a child, she still remembered these common sense.
"Old people get up early, while young people get up late. This small building is designed so fashionably and beautifully, and it is obvious that young people live in it. So the owner of the house must be a young person, and he is probably still sleeping in." Zhou Liwen said with certainty.
Li Qiansu nodded, half believing and half doubting. She raised her hand and knocked on the gate. The closer she got to the house, the more anxious she became to know more, and she felt an impatient urgency in her heart.
Qu Shichu was eating breakfast in the house at this time. She had indeed stayed in bed for a while and had just got up to heat up some buns and milk for breakfast when she didn't expect that there was a knock on her gate.
Her house was at the end of the village. She had always lived alone and seldom interacted with villagers. Normally, no one would come to see her. But now someone came to her house, and she found it a little strange.
However, since there were no visitors from other worlds in the past two days, she didn't have to worry about the situation being out of control, so she went to the yard with the milk carton in her mouth and opened the gate.
Li Qiansu didn't expect that the person who opened the door was a young and very elegant girl. The girl had a slim figure and was wearing a gray home dress. Her long black hair was draped behind her, making her skin look as white as snow.
"Who are you? Why are you knocking on my door?" Qu Shichu asked the two people in front of him.
Li Qiansu quickly showed a friendly smile and said, "We are from the next village. When I passed by yesterday, I saw that your house was very uniquely designed. I wanted to take a look today. I wonder if we can go in and take a look? Don't worry, we are just taking a look and we won't wander around without permission."
When Zhou Liwen first saw Qu Shichu, she was stunned for a while, as if she was recalling something. When Li Qiansu spoke, she clapped her hands in sudden realization and said to Qu Shichu with some surprise:
"You, you are the little granddaughter of Grandma Qu, right? I am Zhou Liwen from the neighboring Quanxi Village. When I was a child, I often came to your village to play, but you are several years younger than me. At that time, we ran around the village and played like crazy. Because you were weak, you could only watch us play with envy and didn't dare to join in... I didn't expect you to have grown up so much now."
Qu Shichu struggled to find some things related to the woman in front of him from the original owner's memory, and confirmed that she was not lying. Then he led them in with a smile, saying, "I'm so sorry, I was probably too young at that time, and I don't have much memory. I can only barely remember a little."
"It's good that you remember a little bit. You were really very young at that time." Zhou Liwen said excitedly, "By the way, what's your name? I only know that you are Grandma Qu's granddaughter, and I don't even know your full name."
"My name is Qu Shichu, and my grandmother passed away a year ago." Qu Shichu said with a smile.
"Oh, I'm so sorry." Zhou Liwen suddenly felt a little sorry.
"It doesn't matter. Grandma died with a smile on her face. She went to be reunited with my parents." Qu Shichu looked relieved.
Zhou Liwen could only laugh a few times, then pulled Li Qiansu over and quickly introduced her friend: "This is my colleague and good friend Li Qiansu. She came to my house to play, and she fell in love with your small building when she saw it. She dragged me over to see it early in the morning."
When Qu Shichu heard her words, he was really surprised. He didn't expect that Li Qiansu would appear in front of him in this way.
