Chapter 86

  This is to prevent theft. An's body has become what it is today, and Hua Zi even gave up his wife. ... Cop Gu Wei Qiang was very grateful, reached into his pocket and pulled out a pack of Great Wall cigarettes, and threw them at Hua Zi.

  Hua Zi's hands cupped together, his eyes shining like he had just seen his own wife. He carefully scraped the cigarette box several times, making a "tsk" sound, "Good boy, this is indeed a big deal, Qiang Zi, you're really generous this time."

  Nowadays, a pack of Da Qian Men is more expensive than two catties of meat. Moreover, in this town, it's hard to find a place that sells Da Qian Men. You have to go to the county seat or even bigger cities to see such rare cigarettes.

  Gu Weiqiang ran long distances outside and naturally had some connections. This big front door was expensive, he himself didn't even want to smoke it, but carried it on him to pave the way.

  He smiled wryly and saw Huazi out.

  Zhou Aiju also went to the kitchen.

  Inside the house, only Gu Weiqiang and Gu Dongdong were left. Xiaodouding, who was eight years old this year, lay on the edge of the kang, thin, with a big forehead, making his eyes shine brighter, and misty eyes with a crying tone, "Dad, will my sister wake up?"

  Gu Wei Qiang patted his pocket, wanting to light a cigarette, but thinking about it in front of the child, he restrained himself. He reached out and gently touched his son's forehead, firmly saying, "Hmm, An An will wake up soon, you watch over him for a bit, Dad is going out for a trip." An An had always been a pushover since childhood, this time going to the county town to attend high school, no matter what, he had to hold onto this spot for his older sister.

  As for the little daughter, anyway she is one year younger than him. He will go to run more errands and strive to earn tuition fees and living expenses, so that the little daughter can also go to the county town to study next year.

  After all, it's still useless for him to be a father.

  This statement is somewhat self-deprecating on Gu Weiqiang's part. He drives long-distance cargo trucks for a transportation team, earning a monthly salary of 37.5 yuan, 30 yuan of which he gives to Zhou Aijuan for public use, and the rest of the money he earns from other channels is also mostly used to support his family.

  After all, in the entire Gu family, he is the only one who eats supplied grain, and it's only right that he should help support several of his brothers.

  But thinking about it, the money he earns, let alone Anan and Wann going to high school, even Dongdong is now in high school, can also be supported...

  The family didn't split up, and the money he earned was all handed over. This time, there were two who could go to the county town to attend high school, one from the second house and one from the fourth house. You know, in these times, being able to afford for children to attend high school is really tightening their belts. And that's not all, there are still several younger ones in the Gu family attending elementary school, which is a huge expense.

  Actually, the Gu family's conditions are not bad, they are among the best in the whole village of Gujia. However, it was only two years ago that the Gu family built a red-brick and tile-roofed house with glass windows, which is really luxurious. But the price of this luxury is that they spent a lot of money, and Zhou Aijuan emptied out all the savings they had accumulated over the years. This is why they are now struggling to make ends meet, and on top of that, they have to fight for a spot in school.

  An'an fell asleep, unaware that Gu Weiqiang had gone to see Tang Lanzhi alone and warned her not to have any ideas about fighting for a spot.

  And Wang Da Ying, the second daughter-in-law of the kitchen, held an oily pot brush and wiped it around the big pot. She stretched her neck to look outside the kitchen, saw no one, and then spoke up, "Sister-in-law, how many eggs did fourth brother take?"

  In front of the stove, Zhao Junyan didn't even lift his head, just kept shoving wheat straw into the stove. On a cold winter day, using wheat straw to fuel the fire was quite accurate. He replied faintly, "I don't know."

  Wang Da Ying raised an eyebrow and curled her lip, "You little girl, it's just a fever, no need to call in some quack doctor, wasting several eggs."

  Zhao Junyan lowered his head and focused on the work in his hands, not responding to Wang Da Ying, as if he hadn't heard him.

  It's worth mentioning that Zhao Junyan has a good name, but her family background is not good. Her ancestors were big landlords and during the early years of criticism and struggle, she was expelled by her family and cut off from them. She escaped from Henan to Gujia Village, where she almost starved to death. It was Gu Jia's eldest son, Gu Weiguo, who saved Zhao Junyan by rationing his own food.

  Zhao Junyan woke up and didn't despise him. Gu Weiguo was a cripple, so she married Gu Weiguo and settled in Gu's Village.

  It turns out that Gu Weiguo, being a cripple, had no one in the village willing to marry him. On the contrary, he was the last one to get married in the old Gu family. Now his son with Zhao Junyan is only ten years old, two years older than Gu Dongdong.

  The kitchen was bustling with activity, but Anan had no idea, she lay in bed, her mouth watering nonstop, she dreamed of the supermarket before she came here, standing in front of the braised meat counter, drooling.

  That braised chicken leg is really delicious!

  She subconsciously reached out to touch her flat belly, then touched the empty pockets, pouted, unfortunately she had no money.

  She remembered herself wearing 70s clothes, from originally being a young wealthy woman to becoming a poor and white-collar worker, Gu An An.

  The more she thought about it, the more unbearable it became. She squatted in front of the braised meat stall, smelling the familiar scent of roasted meat, and burst into tears as she hugged her head. She missed her dad and mom, she wanted to go home, she didn't want to stay here at all.

  Gu Dongdong, who had fallen asleep on the kang, did not know that his sister, who was lying in bed, had suddenly disappeared.

  At this time, Gu Anan also felt that something was wrong. This smell was too familiar. She squatted on the ground, which was also icy and had a real tactile sensation.

  Really?

  Is this supermarket real?

  Came with her to this era.

  It's a pity that Gu An'an was also unlucky. She was just strolling through the supermarket, and when she walked into the beverage section, the shelf fell down on her. The originally pampered Gu An'an of the 21st century became a small white radish soaked in bitter water from the 1970s.

  Gu An'an suddenly stood up, perhaps still dazed from the fall. She didn't care about anything else and rushed to the beverage section. As expected, the place where she fell was littered with scattered drinks everywhere, and her small bag was still trapped under the drinks.

  Gu Anan used all her might and pulled out a small package.

  She took out her phone, which still had three bars of battery. She pressed the recent call record, and her dad's number was at the top. She subconsciously dialed it, but it only rang three times before automatically hanging up.

  An'an gritted her teeth and dialed the second number, which was her mother's, but the result was the same - she couldn't get through. She muttered to herself, "How is this possible?" As she scrolled through her contact list, she pressed down again, still with no success.

  This phone can no longer dial any numbers.

  And she Gu An'an, thoroughly can't go back.

  Thinking of this, Gu An's heart was in pain, if she wasn't around anymore, what would her dad and mom do?!

  She suppressed the sourness in her nose, opened her mobile phone album, and the first photo was a family portrait of her father, mother, and herself.

  In the photo, Gu Anan is wearing a graduation gown, with her hair tied up in high ponytail, standing between her parents, smiling brightly.

  Gu An's eyes were misty, staring at the photo intently. As she looked, tears fell like broken pearls, pattering down.

  "Dad and Mom, I miss you so much." She subconsciously stroked the photo with her hand, holding her phone, and burst into loud sobs.

  Cried enough, quietly staring at the supermarket's glass window, dazed and distracted, "Can't go back,"

  She put her phone into her bag and carefully placed it in the most conspicuous place.

  Anan then walked to the pharmacy section, picked up a box of cold medicine, took out two tablets and swallowed them with mineral water. After thinking for a moment, she went to the food section and drank half a bowl of freshly baked corn congee.

  Facing himself in the mirror to boost his confidence, it would have been better if he hadn't looked in the mirror, but as soon as he did, An was startled.

  This dark and thin, yellow-haired little girl is actually her?

  How is this possible?

  She was a lovely girl back then, at least a little beauty!

  What's with this body?

  Does the package contain black charcoal?

  An'an has tanned so much that her skin tone is almost indistinguishable from a black person's now.

  What's wrong with you!

  Then there was a loud cry outside, "Sister, where are you going?"

  Gu Dongdong, this little bean, woke up from a nap and subconsciously touched his own sister's forehead. Who would have thought that he actually touched nothing? His drowsiness instantly disappeared, and the little bean cried out and ran out of the west room to find an adult to take a look.

  Scared, Gu An'an hurried out of the supermarket and dove into her bed, yawning as the medicine took effect, and fell back asleep.

  Xiao Dou Ding was holding onto her dad with one hand and grandma with the other as they entered the house. As soon as she saw the person lying on the bed, her tears stopped immediately, and she stared blankly, "Sister... sister is back."

  The adults couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, thinking that this child had hallucinations.

  Zhou Aiju put the Astragalus membranaceus she got from Hua Zi into a pot and simmered it, after simmering for a while, she fed a bowl to An An. She asked Gu Dongdong to watch over An An in the house. As the weather was getting colder, every household started preparing goods for the Chinese New Year, some were busy.

  Gu Dongdong's head nodded like a garlic press, his eyes wide open and staring at his sister on the bed without blinking, as if he was afraid that in the next second, his sister would disappear again.

  Gu An was sleeping dazedly, the rustling sound beside her ear made her head ache. She forced herself to open her eyes and found that her cheap mom and cheap sister were rummaging through her room, their expressions clearly not right.

  She shifted her arm and grunted.

  The two people searching indoors suddenly froze.

  Tang Lanji looked worried, this big girl, why didn't she wake up early or late, but woke up at this time.

  Gu Wanwan's expression didn't change, she raised her hand and patted Tang Lanzhi's arm, "Mom, you continue to clean up, I'll go take a look at my sister."

  As she spoke, she stuffed some tickets into Tang Lanxi's cloth bag on the side, and then walked in front of Gu Anan, smiling innocently, "Sister, you're awake! Are you feeling better?" Although her mouth was full of concerned words, there were no actual actions, not even offering a glass of water to the patient or helping Gu Anan get out of bed.

  Gu Anan didn't expect her younger sister to help her up, so she leaned against the headboard, propped herself up with her arm, and sat up. "What are you doing? Packing things to go where?" She really couldn't bring herself to call out for her mom.

  Tang Lan Zhi also stopped collecting, tied the mouth of the bag and held it in her hand. "Mom, I'm going to take your sister to grandma's house for New Year."

  Gu An'an opened her heavy eyelids, narrowing them into a line, and looked around. The courtyard was surrounded by thick bamboo fences, which were somewhat dilapidated. Next to her was a large stone mill, and the ground she knelt on was muddy, with snowflakes covering it in a white sheet.

  The voice in my ear is getting clearer and clearer.

  "Come on, Dad, just agree with An An."

  "It's snowing outside and it's cold, if I kneel down and something happens to my body, what should I do?"

  "No way, the quota for studying in the city was something I fought to get for An An. Don't think that just because you've been taking care of An An and kneeling down, this quota can be swapped."

  "But the school place is what An'an is willing to give up for Wanwan." The woman's voice was a bit shrill, she pulled over a teenage girl beside her, this girl looked exceptionally pretty, with pale skin and tears in her eyes, her slender body made her look even more fragile, she forced a smile, "Dad, call sister in first."

  Where is this?

  Gu An'an's face turned even paler, but her skin was originally dark, looking like a blackboard smeared with chalk, ugly and tight.

  She took a deep breath and slowly raised her hand, but it wasn't her hand, it was dark and rough.

  Gu An'an lifted her head and faced the eaves in front of her. Under the eaves, there was a swallow's nest, and below it was a wooden door painted with red oil paint.

  This is not her home.

  This was Gu Anan's first reaction, this body wasn't hers either, her hands wouldn't be so dark.

  Gu An'an's original body was that of an ordinary 90s-born little girl, but her father and mother were social elites with a pretty good family background, so An'an never suffered from any hardships since she was young.

  Moreover, as the only daughter in the family, whenever there's something good, parents naturally spare no effort to prepare it for their own child.

  However, Gu's mother has a way with educating children. Although An'an was raised in a pampered environment from a young age, she has a particularly good temperament and is well-behaved and understanding. An'an also inherited the best qualities of her parents and grew up to be very beautiful, it can be said that from childhood to adulthood, she was always the class beauty and school belle. Especially her skin, anyone who has seen An'an would say that this child must have been raised on milk, her skin is so white and tender that it makes people want to take a bite.

  An An has been beautiful since she was a child.

  From a fair and tender beauty, she turned into a dark and dirty radish head.

  Gu An'an felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart.

  She came to a strange world, where there was no loving father and mother, everything could only rely on herself.

  Gu An'an sniffled, forcing her stiff joints to move, and her previously numb brain slowly came back to life, gradually accepting the memories of her original body.

  This is Gu Jiacun in 1977. Her birth name was also Gu An'an, the eldest sister of the four houses of the Gu family, who was sixteen years old this year. She had a younger sister and brother below her.

  And she would kneel here for a reason, in the summer of this year, from Beijing came the news of restoring the college entrance examination, and she just graduated from junior high school this year, which was an opportunity to leave the countryside and take the university entrance exam.

  Gu An'an's father is Gu Weiqiang, a long-distance truck driver.

  Traveling south and north, with extensive experience, plus Gu An'an's grandmother, Zhou Aijuan was originally the village teacher, so the Gu family's ideology has always been relatively advanced. That is to say, among the four houses, whose child performs well will go to the county town to attend high school.

  It turns out that Zhou Aiju had five children in her lifetime, the first four were sons, and it was not until old age that she finally gave birth to a daughter. Who would have thought that the youngest daughter would be frail and leave early.

  In the second year after the departure of the youngest daughter, in the all-male household of the Gu family, Tang Lanzhi, the wife of Gu's fourth son, gave birth to a girl, who was Gu An'an. This child looked very much like the youngest daughter that Zhou Aijuan had lost.

  So, Gu An'an became the only child of the old Gu family. It's said that in rural areas, everyone wants a boy, but in the third generation of the Gu family, there wasn't one, so when Gu An'an was born, she received all the love and attention, becoming the little princess of the Gu family.

  However, good times did not last long. In the second year, Tang Lan Zhi's belly was stirring again. One-year-old Gu An An had just learned to walk and got into big trouble. She was in a walker, running wildly around the house, and accidentally bumped into Tang Lan Zhi, who was more than eight months pregnant, causing her baby to be born prematurely.

  When everyone thought it was a son, unexpectedly, Tang Lanxi's belly was particularly competitive and gave birth to another daughter, who is Gu Anan's sister, Gu Wanwan. However, due to Gu Anan's mischievousness, Gu Wanwan was born prematurely and had a weak body, so everyone's attention shifted to the newly born Gu Wanwan.

  Not only that, but Tang Lanqi also had a rift with Gu Anan because of this matter. Although the palm and back of the hand are both flesh, the flesh on the palm is indeed thicker than the back of the hand.

  Gu An'an knelt in the courtyard on this cold winter day because Tang Lanzhi spoke up, hoping that Gu An'an would give up her spot to attend high school in the county town to Gu Wanwan. The reason was that Gu Wanwan had a strong physique and could do laborious work in the countryside, so she wouldn't starve in the future. On the other hand, Gu Wanwan's weak physique was caused by Gu An'an, so this opportunity should be given to Gu Wanwan, allowing her younger sister to go to the city and get a rationed food supply, which would be the best arrangement.

  Tang Lan Zhi and Gu Wan Wan came to find Gu An An just because of this family, where the host is Zhou Ai Ju.

  Zhou Aiju has been especially fond of An'an since she was a child.

  In addition, Gu Wei Qiang had previously made it clear at home that whoever scored higher on the exam would go to the county town for high school. Gu An An's test scores were a big gap higher than those of her siblings, so Gu Wei Qiang was determined to let Gu An An attend high school in the county town. He had also made arrangements with the school there and told his friends that he would send over the child with the best academic performance at home, and the teacher agreed.

  At this point, Gu An'an couldn't help but laugh bitterly. This body was really stubborn to the end, even kneeling in the snow just to give away the quota...

  Adorably silly.

  Gu An'an was a single daughter since childhood, and her parents doted on her. With good education, whether it's EQ or IQ, she was very online. Gu An'an saw that the quota belonging to her was going to be given to her sister Gu Wanwan.

  And she, the victim, was kneeling in the snow, while the beneficiary was comfortably at home.

  What's going on here?

  Although Gu Anan didn't have any sisters, her best friend Yan Yanyu's family was a big mess. The Yan family was considered to be wealthy, but her mother had passed away early, and her father had found her a stepmother, who brought with her a younger sister into their home. From then on, Yan Yanyu embarked on a path of being taken advantage of and disliked by her own family members.

  It's because Yan Yanyu's stepmother brought her daughter, who is a fighter among white lotus flowers.

  Thinking of this, Gu An'an rubbed her forehead.

  She leaned on the stone mill beside her and struggled to get up, ignoring the pain in her legs, and limped into the main room.

  There were not a few people standing in the house, among whom an old lady sat in the first place. She looked kind and gentle, but when she saw Gu Anan limping in, her eyes flashed with a hint of heartache, followed by a glare at Gu Anan as if resentful that he was not living up to his potential.

  This quota was finally persuaded by her husband's good son, and it was specially set according to An'an's strengths. Who would have thought that this silly girl would rather go out into the icy snow and kneel down than give up the quota.

  Zhou Aiju got angrier and angrier, directly turning her head away, out of sight, out of mind.

  Gu An'an felt a warmth in her heart and knew she had made her grandmother angry. She thought to herself, "I'll go coax her later."

  A little boy next to her, fell into Gu Anan's arms, pointing at Gu Anan's pants that were wet halfway up the leg, and whispered, "Sister, does it still hurt?" This boy was none other than Gu Anan's younger brother, Gu Dongdong, who was eight years old this year and had a very good relationship with Gu Anan.

  Gu An'an shook her head.

  Tang Lanqi supported Gu Wanwan, who was arguing with Gu Weiqiang. Gu Weiqiang's temples were bulging with rage as he shouted, "The quota for County High School is not something we can just swap out! They made it clear from the start that they wanted the student with the highest score from our village school. Now that An'an has scored the best, she should be the one to go to County High. Secondly, Wanwan's health is poor, and if she were to attend high school, she would have to board, who would take care of her?"

  Tang Lan stood up straight and argued, "It's possible to swap An'an's transcript with Yuanyuan's. It's precisely because Yuanyuan is in poor health that she can't be delayed in this rural area."

  Watching Tang Lanxi single-mindedly fighting for her daughter's interests, Gu Anan's heart cooled down by half. After all, it was just a slap on the back of the hand, thin skin and little flesh, not painful at all.

  Tang Lan Zhi's selfish words made the room fall silent instantly, even Zhou Ai Ju, who didn't care about worldly affairs, shifted her attention to Tang Lan Zhi.

  She glared at her own youngest son, blaming him for spoiling his daughter-in-law. She said sternly, "Although my old Gu's family is not a big clan, it's not so despicable that the younger sister takes the place of the older sister to go to school. Gu Wanwan, you tell me, was it because your grades were poor and you couldn't get into the county high school, or did your good-achieving sister let you take her place?"

  Zhou Aiju had always been gentle and kind in this house, rarely speaking loudly. Her sudden outburst of anger left the few people inside the room stunned for a moment.

  The named Gu Wanwan finally moved out slowly from behind Tang Lanzhi, she moved her lips, her face turned pale, but in the end did not speak. Her mother was scolded by her grandmother, and the only one she could turn to for help was her sister.

  She looked at Gu An'an with slightly red eyes, hoping that Gu An'an could help her out, after all, usually when Gu Wanwan got into trouble, in the end it was always An'an who made amends, who let An'an be kind-hearted and felt sorry for his own little sister, so he naturally took the blame.

  An An's little brother, Xiao Dou, tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Sister, don't agree." Although Second Sister was also his own sister, in Gu Dongdong's eyes, Big Sister was still the best. Gu Dongdong was small but clever, knowing that his mom liked Second Sister the most, while Big Sister was the one who spoiled him the most. He had secretly listened to Grandma and Dad's conversation, and knew that going to county town for high school was equivalent to having half a foot in the city, which would affect Big Sister's future, so it couldn't be delayed.

  Even if Second Sister cries, it won't work.

  Gu Weiqiang took a glance outside the door, with this heavy snow blocking the mountain, no one would come to the foot of the mountain. He stood at the entrance and shook his body, shaking off the snowflakes on his cotton-padded jacket, and said with a smile, "Come on, let's go in and have a couple of drinks to warm up." Gu Weiqiang actually had nowhere to go, his wife had left, and he couldn't show any discomfort at home. The elderly were watching him, the children were looking up to him, he was the pillar of the four houses of the Gu family, and if there was any bitterness, he could only swallow it.

  After some thought, he still owed Old Feng a favor, and they weren't gossipers either. So he came to this thatched cottage.

  Inside the house, with the kang heated up, it was warm and cozy.

  After entering the house, Gu Weiqiang took off his cotton-padded jacket and put it on a chair. He looked at the two people huddled together on the kang, where a bamboo birdcage sat on the warming table, with Lang Yongling teasing the birds, looking delighted.

  As for Feng Xian, he took the book and read it with great interest. If Gu Wei didn't see it wrongly, this book was actually something he had picked up while running long distances. Unexpectedly, Doctor Feng wasn't disdainful of it and took a liking to it.

  "Old Master Lang, Old Feng, come on, have a drink and warm up." Gu Wei strongly made himself at home, taking off his shoes and sitting down on the heated kang with his legs crossed. Only after he sat down did he realize that the kang was not burning well and was only lukewarm. He continued, "What's going on, is there not enough firewood?"

  Old Feng put down the book on the kang, raised his eyelids and said, "Enough, your eldest daughter sent us a bundle of firewood last month. Be frugal and use it sparingly, it can be used until after the New Year." It was mentioned that Gu An'an would send firewood to these people, and she had no relation with Gu Wei Qiang. Gu An'an started going up the mountain to chop firewood when she was over ten years old. Once, she fell from the mountain and hurt her ankle. It was Feng Xian who helped set her bone. Gu An'an was also grateful, every time she went up the mountain to chop firewood for her family, she would bring a bundle to their place, enough for three big men to use for a long time.

  There are three big men living here, Lang Yongling has been rich and noble for a lifetime, let alone cooking, he hasn't even lit a fire, Feng Xian is almost the same, he has spent his whole life studying medicine, only distinguishing between grains.

  Feng Qingyan, with a doll-like face, surprisingly knew how to chop firewood. As the pampered young master of the past decade or so, he had come to the countryside and worked hard to learn it, but if he really did the work, he was not as fast as An An. Although An An didn't like to talk, she was impatient by nature, and every time she took Feng Qingyan to chop firewood, watching him do it slowly made her anxious.

  They simply fought together and let Feng Qingyan carry it back herself.

  Hearing that his own daughter was mentioned by these people, Gu Weiqiang felt uncomfortable and asked, "My daughter chops firewood for you? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

  Lang Yongling took over the conversation, "Who dares to say, after saying it, what if we don't get firewood? We're relying on An'an!", He heard the joke in his words clearly, but still felt uncomfortable. His daughter, Gu Wei's wife, he didn't even let her serve him a bowl of rice, how did she become a partner for carrying firewood here? He waved his hand, "From now on, go to the mountain yourself to get firewood, don't make my daughter do it."

  Feng Xian poured the peanuts into a coarse ceramic plate, filling it to the brim. He picked one up and tossed it into his mouth. "So now you're feeling heartache? You didn't seem to care before, letting people treat you differently. Now that your precious daughter has run off with her mother-in-law, only this stubborn foolish girl is left."

  Gu Weimin smiled wryly, knowing that Feng Xian was a bit too venomous with his words. "Alright, let's not mention past matters. From now on, don't order my daughter around like this."

  Changing the subject, he poured a cup of Erguotou for Old Master Lang and also one for Feng Xian. "For helping me out last time, I'm thanking you here." As he said this, he clinked his cup against Feng Qingyang's. "And Qingyang, if there's anything in the future, just tell your brother, and I'll definitely help if I can."

  Feng Qingyan had a doll-like face, looking exceptionally lovely. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Then I won't be polite, I mentioned that scalpel before, Brother Gu, when you have time, help me gather it."

  Gu Wei-qiang stood up, picked up the quilted jacket that was placed on the kang, and from the interlayer of the jacket, he pulled out a piece of cowhide about 20 cm long and 10 cm wide, with many small pockets on it. Each pocket had a shiny surgical knife inserted in it.

  The cowhide was spread out, with twelve surgical knives neatly arranged on it. Seeing this, even Feng Xian, who was only drinking wine beside him, was stunned.

  He sprang up from the kang with a start.

  Hugging the cowhide cloth in her arms, she laughed and cried at the same time, a bit silly.

  As for Feng Qingyan beside him, he suppressed his excitement and jumped off the kang, facing Gu Weisheng with a respectful bow of three bows. "Thank you, Brother Gu." The two words "thank you" were too light, not enough to express their intentions. This surgical knife was what his father Feng Xian used to eat with back then, relying on this set of tools, he had saved countless people. Only during the house search, did this tool get lost. Who would have thought that after so many years, it could still be seen? To Father Feng Xian, this tool was an old partner.

  The two men suddenly did this, Gu Wei felt a bit uncomfortable, and he also stood up. "Don't do that, Old Feng has helped me a lot, Qingyan you are also considered my half-nephew, this gift is not acceptable." Moreover, back then when he was racing cars, he injured his arm, and it was thanks to Feng Xian's treatment that he didn't end up with a useless arm. Otherwise, how could he have become the captain of the transport team?

  He didn't know what this scalpel meant to Old Feng and his son, but judging from their expressions now, he knew.

  He opened his mouth honestly, "This thing really didn't waste any effort. I asked the people at the provincial city garbage recycling station to help pay attention. The boss left me several sets, and I just happened to like this set, so I brought it over." It's really a blind cat hitting a dead mouse, and he hit the jackpot.

  Feng Xian carefully put away the set of tools, "Younger brother, great kindness doesn't need to be thanked, I'll take care of it thoroughly." He held up his wine cup and downed it in one gulp.

  Gu Weiqiang scratched his head, feeling embarrassed, "What a coincidence, what a coincidence." As for Gu Weiqiang himself, he was also weird. On the outside, he was shrewd and capable, but once he encountered his own relatives or familiar people, he easily became foolish. However, at the end of the day, he had a good heart.

  Lang Yongling saw Feng Xian found his old partner from those years, and felt a little envious. "I don't know when my own old partner will be found." Everything that came out of Lang's house was valuable, and had long been divided up.

  Unlike Feng Xian's scalpel, no one wants it and taking it back to chop vegetables is considered unlucky.

  Gu Weiqiang thought for a moment, and was certain that "there will be such a day." He felt most alive when he was racing cars outside. From the reinstatement of college entrance exams to trading, he no longer wanted to control things as strictly as before.

  Old Master Lang, "Lend me your auspicious words."

  Gu Weiqiang came out of the thatched cottage, preparing to go home for a while. He walked halfway and turned back, with Anan watching at home, he felt relieved and directly stepped on the knee-deep snowy road, one foot deep and one foot shallow, heading towards the transportation team. He estimated that the stranded car had been repaired, taking advantage of the remaining twenty days before the Spring Festival to make a trip, earn some money, and have a good New Year's celebration. Next year, Anan would go to the county town to attend high school, so he needed to prepare more money for emergencies.

  In the house waiting for Gu Weiqiang to return was Gu Dongdong, from daytime till night, he still hadn't returned.

  "Dad, why haven't you come back yet."

  Gu Anan couldn't coax this little bean into behaving, so she thought for a moment and then went to lock the door of the west wing from the inside.

  With a flick of his hand, a delicious roasted chicken thigh appeared.

  Xiao Douding immediately rolled up from the kang, his bright eyes staring at the chicken leg, constantly swallowing saliva, "Sister, chicken leg?"

  Gu An nodded and handed the chicken leg in front of Xiaodou Ding, "Eat."

  Xiao Dou Ding's eyes were full of longing, but his hands didn't slow down, shoving the chicken leg into Gu An An's mouth, "Sister, you eat one bite first."
