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

As soon as Zhao Dani entered the door, she heard Zhao Hongmei say that she was threatened by the old lady. She suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.

This brainless thing didn't even bother to hide when he went in to steal things. Now he was discovered and being watched by so many people. Zhao Dani remembered what happened in front of Liu's house yesterday and her heart trembled.

She hurried to Zhao Hongmei, one hand on her waist, pointed at her and cursed, "What nonsense are you talking about, you little bitch? I asked you to get something, but who knew you were so stupid that you were discovered."

As soon as Zhao Dani said this, the surroundings fell into an eerie silence. Then, no one knew who in the crowd laughed first, and then laughter continued to rise.

Zhang Qiaomei looked at the old lady coldly without saying a word, then went straight back to her room and no longer cared about what was happening outside.

Zhao Hongmei felt as if she had lost her backbone when she saw her mother-in-law leaving the scene.

However, she was young and her mind worked quickly. She knew that the only way to get out of this matter was to put all the blame on Zhao Dani.

"It was grandma who told me to go to my sister-in-law's room to steal things. She said she saw my eldest brother and sister-in-law bringing back a lot of things yesterday afternoon. She insisted that I come and steal, otherwise she would break my legs."

Gu Dali was at the door and had heard everything clearly. After what happened yesterday, he had lost all his face and dignity. He didn't care whether this matter was true or not. He squeezed out a gap between the onlookers and walked in, ignoring everyone.

When he came to Zhao Dani, he looked at her expressionlessly and went back to the main room.

Zhao Dani was furious and rushed forward to slap Zhao Hongmei.

Zhao Hongmei didn't expect Zhao Dani to suddenly hit her. She was caught off guard and was slapped hard. Five finger marks instantly appeared on her face.

The people in charge in the courtyard had already left, so Zhao Hongmei simply sat on the ground and burst into tears, regardless of anything else.

"What are you doing?" As soon as Gu Jun entered the room, he saw his wife sitting on the ground crying. He shouted and hurried over to help her up.

Having achieved the desired effect, Zhao Hongmei no longer explained and just threw herself into Gu Jun's arms and cried bitterly. Gu Jun had no choice but to take her into the house to comfort her.

Zhao Dani looked at everyone and saw that she was the only one left. She spat in the direction where Zhao Hongmei left and turned to go into the main room.

The farce ended just like that. Liu Xiaoxi looked at the empty yard and breathed a sigh of relief.

Inside the courtyard of the Shanghe Village Production Brigade, Zhao Baogen stood at the front of the group, looking at the people who had come to the meeting. He cleared his throat and said, "We just received a notice that county leaders will be visiting our village this afternoon. Everyone, please be sure to maintain your full energy and demonstrate the style of our Shanghe Village Production Brigade."

When everyone heard that the county leaders were coming to Shanghe Village, they immediately felt honored and applauded.

Some even actively asked Zhao Baogen what they needed to do today?

This question hit Zhao Baogen right in the heart, and he arranged today's tasks: "Today's task is not only to clean up the main road in our village at noon, but also to clean up the pig shed, cattle shed, and sheep shed in the village."

Next, according to the division of labor among the groups, Gu Zhan was assigned to the road sweeping group.

After several people in the group discussed it, they decided that each person would be responsible for the section of the road closest to his home. Gu Zhan had no objection. At this moment, he was still worried that Liu Xiaoxi had not had lunch yet.

Gu Zhan picked up his tools and strode towards home. Along the way, he met several people who told him, "There was a quarrel in your family just now."

Fight? Gu Zhan suddenly felt something was wrong. Considering Zhao Dani's unyielding nature, she would probably cause trouble today after he bought something yesterday. He thought he would be back after work, but who knew he would be delayed.

Gu Zhan jogged all the way back to the Gu family, only to find it all quiet. Gu Zhan was panicking. He didn't know what was going on with Liu Xiaoxi. Did she suffer any loss?

He threw the broom in his hand into the yard, strode to the door, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Liu Xiaoxi kneading dough in a porcelain basin.

"Come back so soon?"

"Well, I heard there was a quarrel at home, so I rushed back to check on you. I was worried you might get hurt."

Liu Xiaoxi smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry, I'm fine and not hurt. I endured it before because I was afraid you would be unhappy, but now I won't let them bully me."

Gu Zhan felt a pang of sadness in his heart and murmured, "Hmm," "The village just announced that county leaders will be coming this afternoon, and they've asked everyone to clean up. I'll be sweeping the roads nearby. Call me if you need anything."

"Ok."

Although they say they are sweeping the road, in fact, the roadbed of this era is all loess. In addition, it has not rained recently. The good part of the road under the scorching sun is a hard and smooth loess road surface, and the bad part is covered with a thick layer of loess. It is impossible to sweep it clean in this situation.

Gu Zhan encountered both situations. He could only sweep the section of the road where the situation was better, and for the section where the situation was worse, he only cleaned up the firewood and grass inside.

Even with such a simple tidying up, it already looks much tidier.

At noon, they continued to eat noodle soup. Liu Xiaoxi felt sorry for the white flour and wanted to mix it with corn flour, but Gu Zhan disagreed. He said that this was a critical period for the child's development and nutrition must not be lacking. There was no need to worry about money, as life would get better day by day.

Thinking of the money Gu Zhan brought back from the city, Liu Xiaoxi felt much more at ease.

In Gu Jun's room, he smelled the aroma of noodle soup wafting into the room from the kitchen. His stomach, which had just been filled with corn porridge, began to feel hungry again.

"Why do they eat white flour every meal these days?"

Zhao Hongmei's face still hurt at this moment. She thought about how she didn't see anything in Liu Xiaoxi's room just now, and she thought that she must have hidden the flour.

"Didn't they buy a big bag of stuff yesterday?"

Gu Jun was puzzled: "But where do they get the money?"

Zhao Hongmei didn't say anything. She didn't know where Gu Zhan and his wife got the money.

Gu Jun was full of thoughts, and at the moment he really couldn't think of where a man as cowardly as Gu Zhan could make money. After thinking about it, he thought that the only people who could make a living by eating white flour every day were probably those who engaged in speculation and profiteering, right?

With a loud "boom", Gu Jun's mind exploded. He felt that he had discovered the secret of Gu Zhan's money-making.

At the same time, he also fell into deep thought: since Gu Zhan is capable, and he is much more promising than Gu Zhan, then he can also do something and make some money. After all, drinking this corn porridge every day is really unbearable, and his mouth is very greedy.
