Aunt Sun looked at the thin girl with a stubborn look in her eyes. She couldn't say anything for a moment. She sighed and said, "It would be best for you to go to the team. Although it is hard and dangerous there, but when the time comes I will You can let Qiliang take care of you, girl, if you need any help, just let me know."
"Okay, thank you, auntie."
Aunt Sun didn't stay here for long. After saying this, she left.
Gu Yan turned around and returned to the west room. She packed a few clothes that looked wearable, a pair of green leather rubber shoes, and a pair of yellowed white shoes, and put them into her schoolbag.
After doing all this, she lifted up the kang mat, and there was a small flattened cloth bag underneath. When she opened it, it contained more than fifty yuan of star coins that she had saved over the years.
Zhang Lan naturally didn't know about this money.
Even Gu Moli, who had been sleeping on the same kang as Gu Yan before, didn't know.
After that, Gu Yan went to cook a large pot of noodle soup for herself. She also roasted two sweet potatoes and two potatoes in the pit. After letting them cool, she wrapped them in newspapers.
She also filled the empty grass-green kettle with cold water.
Gu Yan put everything in her schoolbag and tidied it up, then hid her schoolbag in the kang cabinet.
After eating and drinking, and putting everything away, Gu Yan took the washbasin and splashed water everywhere on the floor, especially the floor in the west room. Then she covered herself with a blanket and lay on the kang. do not care.
Didn't Zhang Lan and the others say that she was possessed
Then she will show them!
However, Gu Yan still took out the jade pendant hanging around her neck and saw that the seedlings inside were still drooping, and the green light could not be summoned.
Gu Yan was puzzled.
Zhang Lan didn't come back at noon. Accompanied by matchmaker Li, they went to the house of Blacksmith Wang in the east end of the village. Blacksmith Wang was in his forties, but he married two wives, both of whom died, leaving only a ten-year-old daughter-in-law. His daughter is six or seven years old, but his daughter is very timid and runs away when she sees people. Most of the time, she lives in the village chief's house with the village chief's daughter.
Speaking of which, Blacksmith Wang is somewhat related to the village chief, otherwise he wouldn't be able to live at the east end of the village.
After understanding the purpose of Zhang Lan and Li Matchmaker, Wang Tiejiang, who was in his forties, glanced at Zhang Lan's plump body and agreed.
He is a tall man with a full beard.
Blacksmith Wang directly took out a stack of ten-dollar star coins, including ten of them. He grinned and said, "This is my betrothal gift to your daughter!"
Matchmaker Li's eyes lit up when she saw it, and she couldn't help drooling.
That’s one hundred yuan of star coins!
When Zhang Lan was working as a nanny, she could earn more than 100 a month, but since she had a new child, she didn't dare to stay in the Bai family, so she found an excuse to go back to the village.
Their family didn't have much money in recent years, so when seeing this hundred yuan, Zhang Lan's eyes showed greed.
As she said, "I'm so sorry, I didn't even prepare a betrothal gift for your girl." At the same time, she reached out to take the money.
Blacksmith Wang's big hand touched hers. He was very bold and did not shy away from Matchmaker Li next to him.
Especially when he saw that Zhang Lan was not angry and even glared at him with an irritated look, Wang Tiejiang felt even more itchy in his heart.
While they were talking about things here, Gu Dagang returned home first.
He forgot to bring water when he went to the field at noon, so he went home to eat at noon and went to work again in the afternoon.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw the pigs grunting in the pen and squealing with hunger, and there was no movement at all inside the house.
Gu Dagang's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately entered the house and saw water all over the floor. He then went to the east room first. There was no one in the east room, so he went directly to the west room.
He saw Gu Yan lying on the kang, her eyes closed and her face pale.
Gu Dagang was anxious, "Yan, wake up quickly, what's wrong with you?"
