That's right.

Although He Guilan and Wang Mengyuan did not say anything, judging from their expressions, they obviously agreed with Shi Wenxiu's words.

Gu Wan sneered and glanced at the few people with disdain, as if she was looking at some garbage.

"Captain, I want to borrow the phone from the brigade!"

Lin Jianguo is a very capable person. He not only led the people of Muli'ao, but also spread rumors about them and became a well-known figure in front of the leaders.

He often helps the villagers to get conveniences, such as road construction subsidies, reservoir construction, etc. He also has the only telephone in the nearby villages. Apart from the town, Muli'ao is the only village with a telephone.

However, very few people use this phone. If you are not a village leader, you have to pay to use it.

Hearing her say this, everyone was stunned and didn't react for a moment. Gu Wan thought they were afraid that she didn't have the money to give, so she added:

"I'll pay for the phone call."

Lin Jianguo and Fang Haisheng reacted and nodded. Although they didn't know why she suddenly wanted to call, they knew it must be related to the proof she just mentioned.

Seeing that Gu Wan said so, and Lin Jianguo and Fang Haisheng both wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible, they agreed.

"Okay, then go make the call!"

He paused after he finished speaking, and looked at Gu Wan with some suspicion.

"Can you still walk like this?"

After all, the distance between the educated youth point and the brigade headquarters takes at least seven or eight minutes to walk. Gu Wan looks like she is about to faint, can she really walk there?

Everyone followed and walked towards the brigade headquarters.

Their large group attracted the attention of the villagers. They wanted to ask something, but seeing that Lin Jianguo looked unhappy, they did not dare to ask.

So he instigated the child to follow and take a look.

At this time, if they didn't have to cook and eat, they would have gone to watch by themselves. But it didn't take long. They all hurriedly sped up their cooking and eating, for fear of falling behind and missing out on any fresh gossip.

After arriving at the brigade headquarters, Lin Jianguo, Fang Haisheng, Liu Xie'e, Fang Ping, Gu Wan, the four people who beat people, and Tong Yin appeared.

Everyone else stood outside the house.

The door was open and there was not enough space for so many people to stand in the room.

“Will the phone work?”

Lin Jianguo turned around and asked Gu Wan. He asked out of kindness and responsibility. After all, not everyone can use it these days.

Gu Wan nodded and smiled at him.

"I will."

"Okay then, go ahead and fight. Do you need us to go out?"

"No need, you guys are right here, so you can testify for me!"

Hearing her say this, Lin Jianguo naturally had nothing to refuse, since she didn't mind anyway.

Gu Wan looked at the two of them gratefully, walked to the phone, took a deep breath, and thought for a while before she stretched out her finger and dialed the familiar number.

After a while, the call was finally connected and a familiar voice came from the other end.

She opened her mouth, but was choked with sobs and speechless. Perhaps the remaining emotions of the original owner affected her, and tears in her eyes fell without warning, in large drops, like beads that had broken off the string.

This should be the remaining emotion of the original owner. If she had called and asked her family earlier, she might not have died in such a miserable way.

The captain and the branch secretary looked at each other with frowns on their faces. If Gu Wan hadn't asked them to listen, they would have wanted to leave. Gu Wan was really too pitiful.

She had been in the village for half a month, but her total work points were less than 50. When she came, she only brought two pieces of clothing and didn't even have a quilt, let alone other daily necessities, let alone food. So she was really pitiful.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have let her make the call even though they knew they might have to pay for the phone bill themselves.

"Wan Wan?"

Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, the person on the other end of the phone was about to hang up, but suddenly intermittent crying sounds came from the other end of the phone, and the person on the other end of the phone looked solemn.

He shouted twice tentatively, becoming more and more anxious the more he shouted.

"Wanwan, is that you? Wanwan? Wanwan, what's wrong with you? Say something! Are you going to make grandpa die of anxiety? Wanwan?"

"It's me, it's my grandpa woo woo~"

Originally, she thought she would not be able to shout out, but when the anxious voice of the old man opposite came, Gu Wan finally could not help but shout out with the remaining emotions of the original owner.

After calling someone, it will be much easier to call them next time.

Gu Wan also knew that phone calls were expensive nowadays, so she didn't spend much time reminiscing with the old man. She told him about her experiences since she left home.

I don’t know what the person on the other end was thinking, and there was silence on the microphone for a long time.

Gu Wan concluded:

"Grandpa, the people here are very nice. I don't know what to do, but I don't want to pretend to be poor anymore. I really can't do it. This time I just bought some things, and others will misunderstand that I stole money."

The old man opposite was silent for a while, with a look of self-blame on his face. He didn't expect that he originally wanted his granddaughter to exercise and not enjoy special treatment because of her status.

She can get some thorough training so that when he is gone, the girl won't be unable to bear it and live on her own.

However, they did not expect that the little girl was only good at listening. It was because they had protected her too well before, which resulted in her not being on guard against others, not having the ability to withstand setbacks and become self-reliant, and not having the ability to think for herself.

That's why you are treated like this and don't know how to fight back and get your things back.

The old man listened quietly until she finished speaking. Then he seemed to have lost all his strength and weakly asked Gu Wan to hand the phone to the branch secretary next to him.

……

"I was useless. I was injured and could not protect my son and daughter-in-law. They both died to destroy the enemy, which was glorious.

In order to protect the only child of my Gu family, I originally wanted to send her to the countryside, one for protection, and the other for training her.

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, it's all my fault, it's all my fault... The money was her parents' pension, and some of my savings.

Because I don't know when I will die, so I thought I'd give them all to him. If you want proof, I'll have my guards give you one. If that doesn't work, I can just drag my old bones and run for you."

After listening to the old man's self-introduction, the village party secretary Fang Haisheng and the team leader showed great respect to the old man. Don't ask why neither of them doubted the truthfulness of what the old man said.

The main reason is that people these days have a natural reverence for J people. No matter how chaotic the world is, no one would pretend to be one.

"No, no, I don't think it's necessary for you to go there. I understand the situation here and will definitely make the decision for Gu Zhiqing. Don't worry."
