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

After a long time of dealing with Zhao Dani, Liu Xiaoxi now has her own routine. She did not say that she was going to check if there was anything left in the house.

She intuitively felt that if she said this at this moment, Zhao Dani would block her way with a broom.

Zhao Dani glared at Liu Xiaoxi and followed her, watching her search from the high cabinet to the low cabinet, but in the end she found nothing.

Zhao Dani rolled her eyes in anger, but Liu Xiaoxi ignored her and walked straight past her out the door. Now that they were about to split up, who would care whether she was angry or not?

Zhao Dani was so angry that she threw away the broom, rushed into the room and searched through all the empty cabinets again. There was nothing good in it except the miscellaneous items that the couple disliked.

Zhao Dani returned to the main room angrily and saw Gu Dali standing by the open window, still paying attention to the movements outside the door. She became even angrier. She grabbed Gu Dali who was standing by the window and pointed at his nose and cursed.

"Are you still thinking about your wife who is dead and has no bones left? I'm telling you, don't even think about it."

Gu Dali fell weakly onto the stool, looking at his dry hands with lifeless eyes.

Zhang Qiaomei and Zhao Hongmei were in the kitchen clearing away the breakfast dishes. The noises from the main room reached her ears clearly. Zhao Hongmei's eyes had already been rolling around, and it was unclear what she was thinking. Zhang Qiaomei simply glanced out the window expressionlessly before continuing with her work.

A few people drove the ox cart and soon arrived at their new home.

Liu Xiaoxi looked at the brand new and tidy house and yard in front of her, and the sadness she had felt about leaving her old house suddenly disappeared. At this moment, she was already imagining the life she and Gu Zhan would live in this yard in the future.

When the ox cart was about to arrive, under Gu Zhan's encouraging eyes, Liu Xiaoxi took the lead to step forward and pushed open the loosely closed wooden fence door.

Gu Zhan originally wanted to find a carpenter to make furniture and a door together, but because wood was in short supply at that time, the carpenter made the furniture first, and said that the remaining door could only be made after there was wood.

With no other choice, Gu Zhan asked Zhao Baogen to make a wooden fence gate according to the dimensions he left behind.

Just when Liu Xiaoxi was about to go back and help move things, she saw her parents coming.

"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"

Huang Guihua looked at her daughter lovingly. A few days ago, when she learned that her daughter had followed Gu Zhan to the city, she was worried that she would not be able to withstand the long journey. But today, she saw that her daughter was in good spirits, her little face was white and rosy, and she seemed a little fatter than a few days ago.

Huang Guihua became more and more satisfied with her son-in-law Gu Zhan.

"Didn't my son-in-law come over and tell me before he went to the city that he was moving today and he was afraid he would be too busy, so he asked me and your dad to come over and help."

"Ah? So early?" Liu Xiaoxi searched her mind for a long time, but didn't know when Gu Zhan ran to her mother's house to ask her family for help.

Huang Guihua glared at her daughter and scolded her, "Pay attention to your man and don't just ignore everything."

Liu Xiaoxi frowned: "Mom, what does this have to do with Guan Yu or not?"

Seeing that his wife had gone to their daughter's side, Liu Jinshui did not go over and hurried over to help Gu Zhan untie the hemp rope that was tied to the ox cart.

He had thought it was too early and if it weren't for his wife's urging, he could have stayed a little longer. But when he arrived, they had already moved their things in.

"Why are you so early?"

Guard Zhao looked up at the bright sun at nine in the morning and said, panting, "Uncle, it's a good thing we got up early. If we had been any later, we would have been scorched."

"That's true," Liu Jinshui said as he unloaded some bags and other things from the oxcart. Huang Guihua left Liu Xiaoxi standing in the shade and ran over to help carry the bags.

Seeing her mother go over, Liu Xiaoxi also walked over, but Huang Guihua pulled her away and said, "Hurry up and stay in the shade. You're pregnant, don't run around. You might get bumped."

Liu Xiaoxi had no choice but to stand back in the shade and sit on a wooden stool, watching everyone busy coming and going.

When moving house, I didn’t expect that she, the hostess, would be the one with the least time.

There weren't many things, and basically each person moved everything back to the main house in two trips. The furniture hadn't arrived yet, so Gu Zhan and Liu Weibing were driving the ox cart to get it.

Taking advantage of this break, Huang Guihua asked Liu Xiaoxi to clean the house and make the bed.

The new house was made of adobe, but in order to make it look brighter, Gu Zhan painted the walls white, enlarged the windows according to the usual size of that era, and installed bright glass.

There is still a brick bed in the new house. The weather in the north is cold and there is no electricity at this time, so the brick bed becomes the only choice.

The ground is paved with red bricks, so it looks very clean after a little sweep and sprinkling of water, and dust is not easy to fly up later.

Huang Guihua looked at the cleaned and well-made earthen kang, and happily stroked her daughter's hair and said, "Xiaoxi, you've finally made it. Before, my son-in-law had such a stubborn temper, I was really worried that you would suffer in the Gu family."

Huang Guihua said as she made the bed, "From now on, it will be you and your son-in-law who will live your simple life. Without your mother-in-law here, it will be much easier. From now on, you two just need to live a good life, and your father and I will be relieved."

Liu Xiaoxi stood on the ground, watching her mother busying around and thinking about her, and a wave of apology surged in her heart: "Mom, I know, I won't make you worry anymore."

"Well, it's good to know that your father and I are worried about you. You chose this son-in-law yourself. Now that you have a good life, it's more important than anything else."

After Huang Guihua cleaned up all the dust in the main room, Gu Zhan and the others returned from Nanhe Village pulling the furniture in an ox cart.

Hearing the sound at the door, Huang Guihua handed the broom in her hand to Liu Xiaoxi and ran out to help.

As soon as she went out, she saw a pile of furniture tied with hemp ropes on the ox cart. She exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my God, how much did all this furniture cost for my son-in-law?"

Gu Zhan heard his mother-in-law's exclamation and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it didn't cost much."

People in this era value money more than one can imagine. Gu Zhan felt that if he told the old couple the real amount of the phone bill, they would definitely be heartbroken for a long time.

But Huang Guihua doesn't care how much money Gu Zhan spends now. As long as her daughter lives a comfortable life, how much money is spent is their business. What business does it have as a mother-in-law to get involved?

Liu Jinshui grinned whenever he saw anyone today. When this small mountain of furniture passed by the village road, who wouldn't exclaim that the young man from the Gu family had made it big?

When he first married his daughter to Gu Zhan, many people in the village laughed at him, saying that he had sent his daughter into a den of wolves.

Now, I can finally hold my head high.

"Come, I'll help you hold the ox cart."

Huang Guihua hurried over to help.

With Huang Guihua holding the ox cart, Liu Jinshui and Zhao Weibing holding the furniture on the cart, Gu Zhan began to untie the rope.

After the ropes were untied, several people first took down small objects such as stools tied to the top, and then a table and a small cabinet placed at the bottom.

Zhao Weibing and Gu Zhan were moving furniture downstairs when they turned around and saw Gu Dali standing not far away.

He poked Gu Zhan's arm with his free hand and whispered, "Brother, your grandfather is over there."

Gu Zhan followed Guard Zhao's gaze and saw Gu Dali standing in the open space opposite his door, watching what was happening on their side.

Gu Zhan withdrew his gaze and continued to move the table down with Zhao Weibing.

Seeing that Gu Zhan ignored Gu Dali from beginning to end, Zhao Weibing suddenly felt that he should not have told Gu Zhan about this matter just now.

Huang Guihua was facing the road leading to Gu Zhan's house, and naturally saw Gu Dali standing opposite. She originally wanted to go over and ask this biased old man, but the shaft in her hand reminded her that she couldn't leave here yet.

With his movements restricted, he could only glare at Gu Dali fiercely, warning him not to cause trouble during a good time.
