A family of three travels through time together, and the golden finger is turned on
Chapter 476 Revenge is not delayed for a year
"Well, here you are. I said Xiaobai looks like me." Bao Guiying nodded and reached out to hold Gu Yuebai's hand. To be honest, the family is good-looking. Don't look at Bao Guiying being thin, small and dark-skinned, but that is the result of years of working in the sun. If you look closely at Bao Guiying's facial features, they are indeed good-looking, especially her eyes, which are round almond eyes with double eyelids and big eyes. They are so beautiful.
"Grandma." Gu Can and Gu Yuebai called out in baby voices.
"Hey, Cancan looks like me too." Bao Guiying reached out and touched Gu Can's head. As the family chatted about family matters, the village chief, Grandpa Zhang, came out to speak. They had already checked it out, and they didn't know yet whether the spring was fully alive or how much water it could hold. However, it would be okay for each family to share some, as the village had been without water for quite some time.
Every household had to walk 10 miles to a tributary of the mother river to fetch a little water. Many nearby villages also went there to fetch water, but the tributary was not large, so no one dared to use it freely.
Since last winter, villagers have been organized to dig a canal to bring in water from the tributary. Based on the current workload, it will take about two weeks to bring in water. The arrival of spring water at this time is a real relief, saving time on fetching water and speeding up the digging of the canal.
Each family would send one person to form a ten-person team, working in three shifts to guard the spring. Each family could carry one bucket of water home each day. Of course, the buckets were of a fixed size. Furthermore, the people digging the river daily could not stop.
Sanshi Village is a very ordinary rural village, not the kind where there are many top-notch people. At this time, no one has the energy to calculate anything. The village cadres are not particularly capable people, but their character is acceptable. They also care about the village and do not act arrogantly in the village. The villagers are also very convinced.
Everyone followed the rules carefully. Every family that got water was so excited and happy that they couldn't help crying.
Gu Liang and his family generously donated their loquats, and the amount each household received was carefully calculated. The village chief, along with the village cadres, personally picked, counted, and distributed the fruits.
Naturally, they could get more from the loquat trees in their home, and the villagers were all convinced.
Gu Liang was going to go dig the river with them during the day, and Ji Xiaoju was one of the first group of people to guard the mountain spring.
Gu Liang graduated from junior high school, and Ji Xiaoju graduated from elementary school. Since they still had textbooks at home, they also assigned the two little ones homework. Gu Yuebai quietly read the textbook, and from time to time he would glance at Gu Can, showing his responsibility as a good brother.
Time flies, and ten days have passed in a blink of an eye. The planned river dredging project was completed five days ahead of schedule.
"There's water, there's water!" Everyone was delighted. Because of Sanshi Village's unique geographical location, nearly every household lived on the mountain, some higher, some lower, so the distance between them was far.
Gu Can's home was at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village, actually halfway up a small hill. Behind it was a larger mountain, and they lived on that small hill. Therefore, the river flowed past almost every household, so even if there was a flood, it wouldn't reach the villagers' homes. This made getting water much more convenient.
It was already the twelfth lunar month when we arrived, and now there is only one week left until the Chinese New Year.
During the Lunar New Year, it was a bustling time. This year, it rained, and the village's canal digging project was completed. Everyone firmly believed that everything would be better next year. Although they didn't say it, the villagers tacitly and quietly went to strengthen and clean the Niangniang Temple.
Before the Lunar New Year, the family of four went to town. Besides buying New Year's goods, they also had an important matter to attend to. That was to avenge Gu Liang. He had secretly taken the section chief's slush fund and exposed his affair with that woman.
The story spread quickly because the wall collapsed while the two men were working in broad daylight, and many people saw it. The section chief was not a good person to begin with.
He was able to become the section chief thanks to his ex-wife. However, after his ex-wife had a difficult childbirth, he married a new one. Not only did he mistreat the two children left by his ex-wife, but he also had an affair outside.
Everything was exposed. His new wife, young and beautiful, had a bad temper, especially towards his ex-wife's children, who were now pregnant. With all this exposed, the two children were taken back by their grandfather. I hope they have a bright future.
Anyway, revenge was achieved. The family of four went to the scrap yard. It was impossible to find a bargain, but they did manage to find two small boxes. They also bought some newspapers and books. The reason for this trip was simply to find an excuse to come to town.
After discussing, they decided to tell Gu Yuebai about the cultivation. Since this world has such conditions, their mission is to deal with the male and female protagonists, which requires strong strength as a backing. If they want to live a better life, they will not endure hardships.
As Gu Yuebai grows older, he'll eventually discover the truth. It's best to let him practice with him. He's already been tested and found to have high-level earth spiritual roots, indicating excellent talent. He can begin practicing at five. During this time, he'll be well fed and clothed, with spiritual spring water and wood-elemental powers to nourish his body. His starting point is already quite high.
"Xiaobai, what I'm going to tell you next is very important. Can you promise not to tell anyone?" Gu Liang said to Gu Yuebai. Gu Yuebai turned around and saw Ji Xiaoju and Gu Can also looking at him with burning eyes.
"Ok!"
"Cancan, you must remember not to tell anyone." Gu Liang also warned Gu Can. Gu Can also nodded.
"Okay, Xiaobai, put your hand on this stone." Gu Yuebai obeyed obediently. Then he saw the stone glow.
"Dad, the stone is glowing." Gu Yuebai exclaimed.
"This stone glows because of Xiaobai." Then he asked Gu Can to measure it again. Seeing Gu Yuebai's surprise, Gu Liang said that this was given to him by his master. Since the day when the family changed, it was because Gu Liang worshipped a master, taught him skills, and gave him gifts.
Now he wants to pass these skills to them. Gu Liang told him that these things must not be known to others, otherwise they will not only fail to learn the skills, but Gu Liang will also be taken away. Gu Yuebai nodded.
"Sister, you must also remember not to tell anyone, otherwise you will never see daddy again." Gu Yuebai looked at Gu Can's little face and said seriously.
"Yeah, I get it!" This brother is really a little adult. Gu Can also nodded obediently.
During Chinese New Year, I went to my grandfather's house. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I went to my grandmother's house. They brought some snacks and a fish from the supply and marketing cooperative. My uncle and his family went to my aunt's family. I met my cousins Ou Jianjun and Ou Yongren.
My aunt is a quick-tempered and straightforward person. She gives my uncle a so-so impression, but she doesn't need to bother with elders. She even gave a 1-cent red envelope for New Year's greetings. My grandparents and my maternal grandparents both gave 1-cent red envelopes.
But Gu Can didn't mind. No matter how much or how little was given, it was the other person's thoughtfulness. Besides, it was impossible for him to keep the red envelope from children!
