Gu Jinli looked very strange, and asked Gu Jinan quietly: "Brother, why does my aunt and uncle always run to the rich family's convoy?" ”

Gu Jinan said: "Our eldest uncle is the shopkeeper of the town, and he likes to deal with rich people the most. ”

Gu Jinli glanced at Qian Guangzong, and saw that Qian Guangzong was talking to a short and fat man with his head bowed, and the two didn't know what to say, so they suddenly laughed.

In the memory of the original owner, this eldest uncle really likes to go to the descendants of rich families.

It's just that she was a little uneasy in her heart, and said to Gu Jinan: "Big brother, do you say that they will retaliate against our family because of the water source?" ”

When she found the water source, she didn't tell the old Gu family, so that the old Gu family would lose the opportunity to be in the limelight in the village, with the temper of the old lady Gu who would definitely repay it, she would definitely not swallow this breath, and she would definitely find a chance to take revenge.

Gu Jinan frowned when he heard this, thought for a while, and said, "Then let's be careful during this time, and beware of the trouble they are looking for us." ”

Gu Jinli nodded, and the two siblings told the other four people in the family about their worries, reminding them to beware of the old Gu family in the near future.

Cui Shi and Gu Jinxiu were very frightened, they were afraid of the old Gu family from the bottom of their hearts.

When Gu Dashan heard Gu Jinli's words, his hungry and shriveled face was a little unpleasant, but he still nodded, indicating that he would be wary of the old Gu family.

In the next ten days, Gu Jinli's family of six was wary of the old Gu family everywhere, for fear of the old Gu family's way, but the strange thing was that the group of people in the old Gu family did not find their faults, at most, as usual, scolded their family a few words, and Mrs. Gu's temper was still a little restrained.

Gu Dashan and Cui's hearts that had been raised for ten days finally let go.

In the afternoon, the victims of the famine found a large half-dried river, and there were more than a dozen shallow puddles of water in the depths of the river.

But there were too many people in the disaster, and some wealthy families sent nursing homes to seize the puddles, and when the people of Gujia Village stopped and ran to the river, the river had already been robbed.

Village Chief Gu looked at the big river that had turned into a mudflat, smashed his sticky mouth, and asked Gu Dashan next to him: "Dashan, what should I do now?" ”

Since Gu Jinli found a water source for the village, in the past ten days, as long as he stopped to rest, Gu Dashan asked Gu Dashan to take Gu Jinli around to find a water source for the village, but unfortunately their luck seemed to have run out, and they didn't find a new water source for ten days, and there was only a little bit of water left in the previous store, and if they couldn't find the water source, they would face the fate of dying of thirst.

Gu Dashan pointed to the puddles and quagmire in the depths of the river and said, "This river has not completely dried up, we can dig up the silt in the puddles, and dig a little deeper to produce water." ”

Xiao Yu told him about these things, and also said that water is precious now, and this ability to find water can protect their family, and he has always remembered Xiao Yu's words.

After hearing this, the village chief immediately led more than 20 villagers to the depths of the river, let Gu Dashan see the puddle, and after selecting a puddle, he began to dig silt.

Luckily, they only dug more than three meters before the puddle seeped water back out.

The villagers were so happy that they hurried back and asked their children to bring the stuff to fill it.

"Little fish, go get water, our village has dug up water." Luo Huiniang had two water jars hanging on her shoulders, and two water jars in her hands, and ran to Gu Jinli.

"Right away." Gu Jinli hung the water altar on his elbows, took a wooden stick, handed a stone knife sharpened with stones to Gu Jinxiu, and said, "Sister, Brother Cheng, you stay with the third grandmother, don't run around." ”

Their family now eats and sleeps with the third grandmother's family, but Gu Jinli is still not very relieved, afraid that Gu Jinxiu and Gu Jincheng will be in danger.

Gu Jinxiu tightened Brother Cheng's hand and said, "Xiaoyu don't worry about us, there are three grandmothers here, we are fine." ”

The third grandmother was looking for firewood nearby, and when she heard this, she looked up at Gu Jinli and said, "Xiaoyu don't worry, the third grandmother is here, you don't have to worry about Sister Xiu'er and Brother Cheng." ”

"Thank you, Third Grandma." Gu Jinli followed Luo Huiniang and left.

After the two of them left, Gu Jinxiu took Cheng Ge'er to tidy up the ground, lay straw mats, and bury the pot to prepare for dinner.

"Sister embroidery~" Gu Rong, an eight-year-old Gu Rong from Uncle Gu's family, came to Gu Jinxiu on her feet.

When Gu Jinxiu saw Gu Rong, she didn't see the fear of the old Gu family, but was a little happy: "Sister Rong, why are you here?" ”

The third uncle's family is not favored in the old Gu family, especially Gu Rong, because she is a granddaughter, she is often disliked by Mrs. Gu.

Gu Rong looked around and whispered to Gu Jinxiu: "Sister Xiu, my grandmother has beaten my aunt again." ”

Gu Jinxiu panicked and hurriedly asked, "Why are you fighting again?" How's my mother? Is the injury serious? ”

Gu Rong said: "The milk is thirsty, but there is no water at home, so I ask you if there is any water here?" The eldest aunt didn't speak, and the milk beat her angrily. ”

Gu Rong looked at the bamboo tube tied to Gu Jinxiu's waist and said, "Sister Xiu, if you still have water at home, hurry up and save your aunt, it hurts to beat people." ”

Gu Rong's words pierced Gu Jinxiu's heart like a needle, she hurriedly got up, pulled Cheng Ge'er and ran to the rest place of the old Gu family.

The resting place of the third grandmother's house was not far from the river, while the resting place of the old Gu family was in a dry wood, a long distance, and it took about half an hour to arrive.

But Gu Jinxiu didn't see the Cui family in the rest place of the old Gu family, and she didn't even see the old lady Gu and the old man, but it was rare to see the aunt and the eldest uncle...... There was also a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, short and stocky, with a mole on his face.

"Is that her?" When the short and fat man saw Gu Jinxiu, his eyes stared at her like a wolf, looked her up and down, and nodded with satisfaction: "She looks very handsome, but she is too thin." ”

Qian Guangzong said with a smile: "Ding Ye is the big housekeeper of Qi Mansion, there is no shortage of rice and noodles, and he can grow meat after taking it back for a few days." ”

Aunt Gu also said: "Sister Xiu'er is a good age now, Ding Ye will definitely not lose money when she brings it back, and she can play for more than 20 years in the future." ”

Gu Jinxiu had heard a lot of dirty things during the time she was fleeing from the famine, and when she heard this, she finally understood that she had been deceived, and she trembled with anger, but she quickly picked up Brother Cheng and ran away.

"Big brother and second brother, stop her!" Qian Li'er screamed, she finally tricked Gu Jinxiu here, how could she let her run away.

Qian Chenggui and Qian Chengcai had already blocked Gu Jinxiu's way, and when Gu Jinxiu wanted to run away, he stretched out his legs and tripped her up.

With a bang, Gu Jinxiu and Cheng Ge'er fell to the ground, falling and feeling pain.

Gu Jinxiu hugged Brother Cheng tightly and asked tremblingly, "Auntie...... You, what do you want to do? I, I'm here to bring water to the milk...... Let me go back ......."

"Go back? Sister Xiu'er, what nonsense are you talking about? Qian Li'er smiled, her eyes were full of pride, Gu Jinxiu, a fox, was finally going to be ruined.

Aunt Gu raised a loving smile and persuaded Gu Jinxiu: "Sister Xiu, we finally found a good family for you, so that you don't have to chew leaves anymore, you have to cherish the blessings, and honestly follow Ding Ye back, there are endless blessings for you." ”
