Professor Gu's daily life in the countryside after his rebirth

Gu Zhan saw Liu Jinshui's worried expression. At that moment, even though the old man in front of him was worried about him because of his daughter, he felt extremely warm and touched: "Thank you for your concern, I'm back."

"What's going on?" Liu Jinshui asked as he lit a cigarette.

Before Gu Zhan could say anything, Huang Guihua spilled the beans, telling him everything Gu Zhan had said before: "It was all because of that little bastard Gu Jun. After he was arrested, he actually made random accusations, saying that his son-in-law was also involved in speculation and profiteering."

Liu Jinshui nodded in understanding.

He said it was impossible to suddenly come and arrest people. So that's it.

"Gu Mancang's son is really a bit ignorant."

"You can tell me, a family with bad bamboo shoots can never produce good bamboo."

"Try to stay away from them in the future." Liu Jinshui said the same thing as Huang Guihua.

Gu Zhan responded with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, I will pay attention to it."

"Go back quickly and talk about it tomorrow. Xiaoxi is still home alone now. She must be waiting anxiously." Huang Guihua asked to drive them away. She was still worried about her daughter being home alone.

"Okay, Mom and Dad, you guys should get some rest early. I'll go back first."

After Gu Zhan returned safely, Liu Xiaoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. The fatigue accumulated throughout the day swept over her, making her feel weak all over.

After waiting for a long time for Gu Zhan to come back, he simply got on the kang and lay under the quilt waiting.

Just when she was about to fall asleep, she heard the door outside creak. Liu Xiaoxi guessed that it was Gu Zhan who came back. She forced herself to sit up despite her sleepiness and waited for someone to come in.

As soon as Gu Zhan entered the room, he saw Liu Xiaoxi squinting her eyes sleepily. Maybe she had cried today, and when he looked closely, her eyes were still swollen.

"Sleepy?"

Gu Zhan changed his clothes, took off his shoes and got on the kang.

"Yeah, I'm very sleepy. I've been waiting for you to come back." Liu Xiaoxi said in a daze, then hugged Gu Zhan's waist and fell asleep with her face resting on his thigh.

Gu Zhan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After seeing that the girl was fast asleep, he slowly picked her up and put her into the bed. Then he lay down in the bed himself, gently hugged the girl in front of him, blew out the light and went to sleep.

The news that Gu Zhan was taken away yesterday was widely spread in Shanghe Village. When Gu Zhan went out in the morning, everyone in Shanghe Village who heard the news yesterday was very excited.

Zhao Baogen learned yesterday that Gu Zhan had been taken away and was extremely anxious. He had planned to ask someone to find out what was going on today. However, when he rode his bicycle to the production brigade office in the morning, he saw Gu Zhan and Liu Xiaoxi wandering around the village.

"Gu Zhan?"

Gu Zhan heard Zhao Baogen's voice and stopped to greet him: "Uncle Zhao."

Zhao Baogen got off the bicycle and looked Gu Zhan up and down. Seeing that no one was injured, he felt relieved.

"What happened yesterday?" Zhao Baogen asked in a low voice.

Gu Zhan's expression remained calm as he explained, "It's okay, Uncle Zhao. There was a little misunderstanding. I'll be back once I've explained it clearly."

Hearing Gu Zhan's calm words, Zhao Baogen didn't ask any more questions.

The news that Gu Zhan had returned spread faster than the news that he had been taken away yesterday. The people in Shanghe Village didn't know what to say for a moment.

In the end, there was only one conclusion: Gu Zhan really hadn't done anything illegal.

After Gu Jun was arrested, everyone in the Gu family had a sad face. Even Gu Mancang, who had an affair with Widow Zhao, had to adjust his facial expression and act like he was bitter and resentful when he entered the house after returning from Widow Zhao.

Originally they placed all their hopes on Gu Zhan, hoping that Gu Zhan would still show some mercy and help rescue Gu Jun. However, they did not expect that Gu Zhan would be taken away just one day later.

The Gu family felt like the sky had fallen and their only hope was shattered.

What should Gu Jun do?

But when Zhao Dani went out in the morning, she heard her neighbor say that Gu Zhan had returned.

At first, Zhao Dani refused to believe it. She didn’t believe that the little bastard could come out after going in.

But when she saw Gu Zhan and his wife from afar, she felt not only disbelief but also anger.

That little bastard actually came out, but what about her grandson? Why didn't he come out?

Zhao Dani hurried home and after finding Zhang Qiaomei, she said anxiously, "That little bastard is back."

"What?" Zhang Qiaomei didn't quite believe it. Didn't they say Gu Zhan was also arrested? He came back so soon. Did that mean her son would be back soon too?

Zhang Qiaomei didn't care about her reputation and went to find Gu Zhan again.

This time, she was much more self-aware than last time and didn't pretend to be nice. Instead, she asked Gu Zhan directly, "Nephew, when will your brother be back?"

Gu Zhan found it funny. Did these two really think he knew everything?

"do not know."

Zhang Qiaomei screamed, "Why didn't you know? You've already come back, why didn't you know when your brother would be back?"

This is extremely shameless.

Zhang Qiaomei successfully aroused the anger that Gu Zhan had suppressed deep in his heart. He looked at Zhang Qiaomei with a half-smile: "Second Aunt, do you know why they came to see me?"

Zhang Qiaomei had a hunch when she heard Gu Zhan ask this, but her concern for her son outweighed everything else, so she couldn't help but blurt out, "Why?"

Gu Zhan sneered at the doctor and said slowly, "Because Gu Jun exposed me, saying that I was speculating and profiteering."

"What?" Hearing Gu Zhan say this, Zhang Qiaomei felt devastated by her son's stupidity. Gu Jun blocked the only way to save him.

"They checked and found that there was nothing wrong with me, so they let me come back." This also answered Zhang Qiaomei's question about why Gu Zhan came back but Gu Jun had not yet returned.

Zhang Qiaomei returned home in a daze. When she saw Zhao Hongmei, she was furious. Her son was obviously earning a lot of money, but she insisted on wearing new clothes to show off. Now her son was put in jail.

Seeing that the news of his return had almost spread, Gu Zhan took Liu Xiaoxi home, closed the door and started studying.

As for when Gu Jun could return home, it was no longer a question he could concern himself with.

If this case is handled as Director Li said, and the higher-ups want to make an example of someone, then the consequences will certainly not be lenient.

Gu Jun, you can only hope for the best.
