Chapter 16: The Great Secret
Cheng Qingxue was very uneasy, it was only a few months since she traveled to this era, and she had formed such a big enmity with Xia Yao. I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future.
"Well, since we were bumped into by her, I'm afraid, we'll have to be careful in the future. Let's go, let's leave her alone and go home first, grandpa is still waiting for us at home. ”
After speaking, Cheng Qingxue strode towards the cowshed.
Originally, Gu Xingshen was very worried in his heart, but when he saw Cheng Qingxue's back, he had a very down-to-earth feeling in his heart for some reason.
Perhaps, Cheng Qingxue is the lucky star sent to her by God.
The two walked for more than half an hour, and finally returned to the cowshed just before sunset.
As soon as they entered the cowshed, the two of them heard the old man's cough. Gu Xingshen hurriedly put down the basket and walked quickly to the bed.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?" Gu Xingshen looked at the old man worriedly, and he blamed himself very much in his heart.
Originally, they were living a good life in the city, but now, this leaky cowshed makes the old and frail old man unable to hold on at all. Fortunately, Cheng Qingxue found coal. In Gu Beishen's heart, he is very grateful to Cheng Qingxue.
"I'm fine, why did you come back so late today?" ahem...... the old man said with a bitter face.
"Grandpa, don't talk yet, I'll go pour you some water to drink. After speaking, Gu Beishen got up and walked quickly to the kitchen, picked up a bowl and poured water for the old man.
Cheng Qingxue on the side also hurriedly put the coal in the back basket into the brazier, and after a while, the cowshed gradually warmed up, and the old man's face looked slightly better.
Seeing that the old man's face had recovered, Gu Xingshen asked with some displeasure: "Grandpa, when we went out this morning, we obviously put coal in the brazier, why didn't we have it when we came back just now?"
Hearing this, the old man's face showed a bitter face, he glanced at Cheng Qingxue in embarrassment, and said lightly: "I see that there is no coal at home, and I know that this thing is quite expensive, so I want to save it and wait for you to come back and use it again." ”
Cheng Qingxue's eyes suddenly seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and the old man's words made her unable to hold back tears.
Her gaze quietly looked towards Gu Beishen, only to see a teardrop the size of a bean falling from Gu Beishen's cheek. Afraid that the old man would look sad, Cheng Qingxue hurriedly pulled Gu Beishen's clothes.
Gu Beishen, who was originally sad, immediately withdrew the tears in his eyes and said softly: "Grandpa, today we are going to the mountains to dig coal, you see, these two back baskets are the coal we dug today." Qingxue found a good place, and there was a lot of coal in that place. In the future, we won't have to worry about not being able to survive the winter. ”
"Really?" The old man was a little skeptical of Gu Beishen's words, although he used to be a wealthy person, like coal, he also had it at home in the early years. But just like that, he only saw one or two a year. It was the first time he had seen it like this.
Gu Beishen sobbed softly, "Really, grandpa, you have to believe me." ”
Seeing Gu Beishen's determined appearance, the old man's worried heart was put down.
"In that case, then I'm relieved. After speaking, the old man paused and looked at Cheng Qingxue. "Beishen, you must treat Qingxue well, she is a good girl. ”
The old man's words made Cheng Qingxue stunned. She didn't expect the old man to praise her, but this time, she was a little flattered.
She hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Grandpa, you are too polite, in fact, I also have a lot of shortcomings." ”
When she said the second half of the sentence, Cheng Qingxue glanced at Gu Beishen with a weak heart, but what she said was also the truth. The only advantage of crossing over here is probably the sense of superiority that I have lived in the 21st century, so I am not particularly strange about anything.
Gu Beishen smiled shallowly, Cheng Qingxue's shy appearance just now, he liked it very much, and he was very happy in his heart.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Qingxue. Don't talk anymore, take a good rest first, and I'll go cook. ”
After Gu Beishen finished speaking, he smiled evilly at Cheng Qingxue.
Cheng Qingxue, who was shy, was amused by Gu Beishen's smile, it was the first time she had seen Gu Beishen like this. It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, not to mention the men of the seventies, they should be stronger.
However, in Cheng Qingxue's heart, she was very glad that she saw Gu Beishen's fragile side, as for why, even she couldn't tell why.
On the other side, Xia Yao, who was walking on the mountain and rushing home, was about to arrive at the door of the house. Suddenly, Fu Yishan appeared in front of her eyes.
"Yaoyao, where are you in such a hurry?"
Fu Yishan looked like a gentleman, so that Xia Yao, who was anxious, stopped, and the secret in his heart was about to burst out.
"Yishan, I'm going to tell you a big secret. ”
Hearing this, Fu Yishan sighed secretly in his heart. This stupid woman, who likes these things all day long, thinks she will like to listen to her so-called big secrets?
Although Fu Yishan thought so in his heart, he still pretended to be very expectant, and asked curiously, "What is the big secret?"
Seeing Fu Yishan's appearance, Xia Yao's heart was very satisfied.
In terms of temperament and appearance, Fu Yishan is absolutely under Gu Beishen, but Fu Yishan is the only one who will never ignore her like Gu Beishen.
In this village, the best man is none other than Fu Yishan. After all, he is an educated youth. In the future, if I can return to the city, I will definitely do something again.
Xia Yao also thought about it before deciding to be with Fu Yishan. But her heart is still on Gu Beishen's body many times.
"I'm just going to tell you about it now, and you don't want to tell anyone else. Xia Yao looked mysterious, but she didn't know that in Fu Yishan's heart, she had already been scolded thousands of times.
Seeing that Xia Yao refused to speak, Fu Yishan's heart was very angry. He went to the fields early in the morning to do farm work, and at this time, he was still being played by this Xia Yao. Suddenly, Fu Yishan's temper came up.
"Say it. ”
Fu Yishan's tone was very unkind, if it was changed in normal times, Xia Yao would definitely cry and make trouble. But today, Fu Yishan felt that she must have something wrong.
"I have been squatting in front of Cheng Qingxue and Gu Beishen's house for the past few days, and until today, I finally discovered a big secret. When Xia Yao said this, her movements and tone were very strong, and Fu Yishan held back the anger in his heart and continued to listen.
"Early this morning, I saw the two of them each carrying a basket on the mountain, so I quietly followed. As a result, the two of them were found digging coal. ”
Originally, Fu Yishan made a perfunctory expression towards Xia Yao. When he heard the coal, his face suddenly changed, and he asked nervously, "What are you talking about? Are they digging coal?" Are you sure?"
