Chapter 40 Doubt
Seeing Gu Jin and Shen Qingsong walking down the mountain side by side, looking so well matched, Gu Xiaoling felt happy for Gu Jin from the bottom of her heart.
She had never been in contact with Shen Qingsong before, and she didn’t know how Gu Jin lived after marrying to Baishan Village. She had previously felt sorry for Gu Jin’s loss of the Qin family’s engagement. Since yesterday, Shen Qingsong defended Gu Jin at the entrance of the village, and
From what happened today, it seems that Gu Jin is living a pretty good life.
After going down the mountain, they put the medicinal materials home first. Shen Qingsong and Gu Jin then sent Gu Xiaoling home together. Gu Jin told her to continue going up the mountain to collect herbs tomorrow morning.
Gu Xiaoling quickly agreed.
When she saw Shen Qingsong and Gu Jin walking away, she woke up and turned back to the house.
Wang Fengzhi was washing vegetables in the patio. When she saw Gu Xiaoling coming back, her face was filled with a smile, "Are you tired today? Come in quickly and drink some water first."
Gu Xiaoling placed the pheasant in front of Wang Fengzhi and said with a smile, "Mom, extra dinner tonight."
"Where did the pheasant come from that was so big?" Wang Fengzhi was stunned for a moment.
"My brother-in-law got it in the mountains." Gu Xiaoling was three years older than Gu Jin, so she called Shen Qingsong her brother-in-law. She endured her excitement and took out the ten yuan that Gu Jin gave her, and told her about today's medicine collection.
Wang Fengzhi again.
Wang Fengzhi was stunned for a long time without coming back to her senses, "You...you said you helped that girl Gu Jin collect medicine all afternoon, and she gave you ten yuan?"
"Yes." Gu Xiaoling nodded, "I just don't know what Gu Jin is going to do with the medicine."
Wang Fengzhi found it a bit incredible, but the money in Gu Xiaoling's hands was not fake.
"I don't have to worry about it in the future. It seems that Gu Jin's life in the Shen family is pretty good." Gu Xiaoling laughed.
Wang Fengzhi looked incredulous, "If Gu Jin can take you up the mountain to collect medicine every day and give you ten yuan, won't our family be rich?" #@$&
"I thought so too."
"Hey, how about I go up the mountain with you to collect herbs tomorrow? I'll call your brother and your father back, and our whole family will help Gu Jin collect herbs." Wang Fengzhi suggested with some excitement.
But Gu Xiaoling shook her head, "Isn't this bad! Xiaojin only called me, which means she only needs one person now. She gave me the pheasant and gave me money. She has already helped our family. If our family
If everyone goes there, everyone in the village will know within two days that there are only so many medicinal materials on the mountain. If everyone goes to collect medicines, wouldn’t it mean that Xiaojin’s income will be cut off.”
Gu Xiaoling has been an independent thinker since she was a child, unlike her parents.
After listening to her words, Wang Fengzhi felt that it was indeed reasonable. You can't be too greedy. "We Xiaoling is right. It's your idea. I won't go tomorrow. If we can have ten yuan every day in the future, our family will
There’s no need to worry!”%&(&
"Well, Mom, please keep the money." Gu Xiaoling nodded.
For the next two days, Gu Xiaoling followed Gu Jin up the mountain to collect medicinal materials every day. There were no people coming and going in the dangerous mountains, and they were walking on small roads. No one in the village paid attention. The raw materials for the three hundred bags of herbal tea were quickly collected.
.
The only thing missing is that there are not enough medicinal herbs to pick in the mountain. She has to go to the town to buy them. Gu Xiaoling has received a total of thirty yuan in the past few days. She is very rich. In these three days, she can be said to have earned more than she has ever earned in her life.
money.
The winter was getting colder day by day, so Gu Xiaoling bought a lot of cotton and planned to put more cotton in the clothes for her family when she went home.
Gu Jin saw a new hair flower at the supply and marketing cooperative and bought one for Gu Xiaoling to put on, "It looks good."
"This one looks good, Xiao Jin, I'll buy you a clip." Gu Xiaoling was very grateful to Gu Jin for helping her earn money these days, so she chose a pink butterfly clip and gave it to Gu Jin.
Knowing that Gu Xiaoling was such a person, Gu Jin did not shirk the blame and looked back at Shen Qingsong, "Does it look good?"
The man's deep and calm eyes fell on Gu Jin's head, and he nodded, "It looks good."
"Okay, I'll take it." Gu Jin didn't hesitate.
After buying the necessary things, the three of them walked back to the village. When they passed Zhongqing Hotel, only one red lantern at the door was lit.
There were people coming and going on the street, and no one had time to pay attention to these details. Only Shen Qingsong narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw it, and he stopped.
"Gu Jin, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do. You and Gu Xiaoling should go for a walk first. I'll wait for you where you get on the bus in two hours."
"Okay, you can go about your business with peace of mind, we just want to go shopping for a while." Gu Jin nodded generously without asking more about what was going on.
"good."
Watching Gu Jin and Gu Xiaoling disappear from the street, Shen Qingsong turned and walked into Zhongqing Hotel.
Two hours later, they got on the tractor together.
Shopping is a woman's nature, and it makes people feel happy at any time. Gu Jin and Gu Xiaoling were talking and laughing on the tractor, and even Shen Qingsong's mood improved unconsciously.
Because they wanted to take Gu Xiaoling home, the three of them got off the car together in Dayang Village.
Today, Liu Chunfang was standing at the entrance of the village chatting with Aunt Wang next door. She saw Gu Xiaoling and Gu Jin getting off the tractor, both carrying large and small bags in their hands, and their faces were very distorted.
"Hey, Xiaoling, why did you follow our Gu Jin to the town and buy so many good things? Where did you get the money?" Liu Chunfang deliberately ignored Gu Jin and spoke to Gu Xiaoling with a smile on her face.
"Fifth Aunt." Gu Xiaoling didn't want to answer Liu Chunfang's many questions, so she just said hello to her.
Gu Jin didn't even look at Liu Chunfang, but patted Gu Xiaoling's hand and said, "Xiaoling, go home quickly. Third brother and I can feel relieved after seeing you enter the house."
Gu Xiaoling raised her head and smiled at her, then quickly returned home.
Gu Jin didn't say a word to Liu Chunfang from the beginning to the end. She was so angry that she turned blue and wanted to rush forward and pull Gu Jin's hair fiercely, but she didn't dare to cause trouble because Shen Qingsong was still there, so she only dared to stay behind.
Staring angrily.
When Shen Qingsong and Gu Jin gradually walked away, Liu Chunfang complained to Third Aunt Wang next to her, "I worked so hard to raise this dead girl Gu Jin, and I really raised a white-eyed wolf. Where did she get these things?"
I bought it with my money, not the dowry I gave her!
Although I usually feel bad for Zhuzhu, I have never treated Gu Jin badly when it came to the dowry! Just a few days after the wedding, she stopped saying hello to my mother. Our Zhuzhu is different. She comes back every once in a while to accompany her.
Follow me!
I really regret giving birth to such a loser."
They are all from the same village. Third Aunt Wang knew everything about the Gu family. Although she laughed at Liu Chunfang in her heart for confusing right and wrong, she did not dare to provoke this shrew. "They say that a married daughter throws water, so just let her
Go for it!”
Liu Chunfang curled her lips, with a mean and calculating look on her face, and glanced at Gu Xiaoling's house, "During this period, that girl Gu Xiaoling has been staying with my loser every day. I heard that she eats meat every day, and Gu Xiaoling also went to town today.
They bought a lot of things and it looked like they spent a lot of money. What on earth do you think they are doing together?"
"I heard from Second Sister-in-law Gu that she went to the mountains to collect medicinal materials." Third Aunt Wang replied.
"How much are those worthless things on the mountain worth?" Liu Chunfang didn't believe it.
Third Aunt Wang spread her hands and shrugged, "Then I don't know."
Liu Chunfang was very curious and jealous, so she hurriedly separated from Third Aunt Wang and rushed to Gu Laoer's house.
Liu Chunfang knew that Gu Xiaoling was dissatisfied with her mistreatment of Gu Jin, and since Gu Xiaoling had an idea, she would definitely not be able to ask any questions.
However, Wang Fengzhi had a weak ear, so she got close to Wang Fengzhi and wanted to know what Gu Jin and Gu Xiaoling were doing to earn so much money.
Thanks to Gu Xiaoling's instructions to Wang Fengzhi a few days ago, Wang Fengzhi, no matter how Liu Chunfang tried to get closer, just said that Gu Jin and Gu Xiaoling collected medicinal materials in the mountains and sold them in the town, which were not worth a few dollars.
