Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Chapter 256 Male 206 in the Historical Fiction

Gu Yuzhi was stunned when he saw so much money.

He really likes money. His grandmother's illnesses over the years have cost a lot, and when he saw this money, he couldn't wait to agree immediately.

The money his parents originally intended to use to build a house has long since been spent.

The main problem is that there's an elderly person and a young child in the family, and they don't have any way to earn money. Even a simple illness can cost a lot of money.

When Gu Yuzhi grew up, he could only work in the fields. Even if he was lucky enough to catch pheasants or rabbits and sell them on the black market, he still wouldn't make enough money.

Grandma is getting old, and the health problems she developed years ago mean she needs to take medication to manage them.

He really wanted the money, but the person in front of him was Chixing.

"No money is required, just a place to stay."

Gu Yuzhi didn't mention giving Chi Xing food. He had feelings for Chi Xing, but it wasn't to the point where he would empty his house for him.

Chi Xing took out two bills and stuffed them directly into Gu Yuzhi's hand:

"Don't refuse. I can't cook. Could you cook for me, Brother Yu? This is a tip for your trouble. I'll pay for the food myself."

Gu Yuzhi was holding the two ten-yuan bills in his hand, about to put them back, when Chi Xing quickly grabbed them and stuffed them directly into Gu Yuzhi's pocket.

"Brother Yu, let's make sure no one sees us. It's settled then. I'll go talk to Brother Lin Dong."

"Eh…"

Gu Yuzhi was about to say something when he saw Chi Xing rush out in a flurry.

He had no choice but to follow. He thought that their family only had two rooms, and if Akahoshi were to move in, he might have to sleep with him.

250 clicked its tongue twice in Red Star's sea of ​​consciousness; it shouldn't have comforted His Highness earlier.

His Highness had already planned all of this, while the naive immortal lord thought he had gotten a great deal.

Gu Yuzhi really thought that way. He accepted twenty yuan from the man, only asking him to cook for him and sleep with him. It felt like a windfall.

It wasn't until later that Gu Yuzhi realized that what falls from the sky is always a trap, and that he had been completely fooled.

Chi Xing walked quickly to where Lin Dong was resting and explained to him that he wanted to move out of the educated youth settlement.

"Little Red, where will you be living from now on?"

As he spoke, he leaned closer to Akahoshi and whispered, "Boys also need to protect themselves. Don't go to other people's houses to stay."

Lin Dong looked around, worried that someone might be trying to abduct the well-behaved Chi Xing.

"No, I found a family myself. Brother Dong, I'm a light sleeper, even the slightest noise will keep me awake. I really can't stay at the educated youth settlement forever."

Chi Xing looked at Lin Dong with genuine sincerity in his eyes, and the dark circles under his eyes didn't seem fake at all.

Lin Dong's heart softened instantly. Having lived with the educated youth for so long, he naturally knew about the unconventional lifestyle of some of the male educated youth.

Let alone grinding their teeth and talking in their sleep at night, when they are exhausted during the autumn harvest, they might go back and fall asleep without even washing their feet.

Looking at Akahoshi's clean and tidy appearance, it's highly likely that he couldn't stand it.

Rather than moving out later, it's better to move out in advance so we can get used to it before the autumn harvest.

"Where will you stay? Which fellow villager's house will you stay with?" Lin Dong was still worried.

Chi Xing turned around and saw Gu Yuzhi rushing over. He said to Lin Dong:

"It's Gu Yu's house at the foot of the mountain in the village. It's just him and his grandmother in their family."

Lin Dong knew the situation of most people in the village, and he also knew a little about Gu Yuzhi's family situation.

Grandma Gu was a kind old lady, and Gu Yuzhi was well taught by her. He never missed a day of work, except when he was at home taking care of his sick grandmother.

"Gu Yuzhi is indeed a capable person."

Most importantly, there are no young girls in their family, so Lin Dong is not afraid that any girls will covet Chi Xing.

It wasn't that they looked down on the girls in the village; it was that there were too many people who wanted to seduce educated youth and go live in the city.

If both parties are willing, that's fine. But the problem is that some girls don't know their limits and make the young man feel obligated to marry her, otherwise it's considered indecent assault and he'll be sentenced to prison.

Gu Yuzhi came over and heard Lin Dong say:

“Okay, I’ll talk to the team leader later, and we can move it over after work this afternoon.”

These are all minor matters, and the village chief and brigade leader usually agree to them.

Cheng Li, who was on another plot of land, had already noticed what was happening here. When she heard that Chi Xing was going to stay at someone else's house, Cheng Li imagined that she herself was also going to stay at Gu Ye's house.

This rough-looking man, when he went to deliver water earlier, Gu Ye actually refused, saying that he had brought his own.

Cheng Li felt frustrated and even doubted whether she lacked charm, otherwise why was Gu Ye unmoved?

When Cheng Li saw Gu Yuzhi standing with Chi Xing, she felt something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Around noon, Chi Xing returned to the educated youth settlement first. He didn't even want to wait until evening; he wanted to move to Gu Yu's house right now.

After packing his things and leaving the house, Chixing saw Gu Yuzhi standing under a tree at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Brother Yu, are you here to pick me up?" Chi Xing raised a big smile.

Gu Yuzhi took the basin from his arms; it contained some rather heavy household items.

“Come on, I’ll tell Grandma you’re coming to stay at her house. She’s specially made some sausages for you.”

They were all farmers, and apart from Gu Yu going up the mountain to set traps and catch pheasants and rabbits, they rarely had any meat.

The eggs at home were saved to steam for Grandma every day to nourish her body. Gu Yuzhi couldn't bear to eat them herself, and usually ate mostly multigrain steamed buns and green vegetables.

Gu Yuzhi was very happy to cut a few sausages to stir-fry.

Seeing how much he wanted it, Akahoshi felt a pang of sadness. He was unhappy when Ayu was not doing well.

This was Chixing's first visit to Gu Yu's home. The courtyard was surrounded by a stone wall, which was very sturdy. The courtyard was even larger than that of the educated youth settlement.

There are only a few rooms now, one of which is a kitchen.

The remaining main hall and two rooms.

"There are only a few rooms in the house, I didn't have time to tell you earlier. How about I sleep in the main room and you sleep in mine?"

Akahoshi disagreed: "No need, I'm a very quiet sleeper, I can sleep with you."

This sounded strange, but Gu Yuzhi didn't think about it too much. In the village, it was normal for two grown men to sleep together; there was nothing wrong with it.

Yang Guixiang was busy in the kitchen, and the aroma of savory sausage stir-fried with cabbage wafted out, making Chixing's stomach rumble.

"Are you hungry? Come in and sit down in the main room. I'll go help Grandma serve the dishes." Gu Yuzhi put Chixing's things into her room and turned to go to the kitchen.

Yang Guixiang is feeling much better, and the doctor has advised her to get out of bed and move around more, as staying in bed all the time is not good for her health.

Seeing that he couldn't stay idle and wanted to go to the fields again, Gu Yuzhi simply let her cook at home.

She also mentioned that Chixing had given her money to stay at her house, letting Yang Guixiang know that she could earn money from her cooking.

The old man was afraid of burdening his grandson, and now that he knows he can earn money, he's happy.
