Chapter 165 Gu Si leaves temporarily, the old lady stays

at the same time--

Uncle Pei, Pei Yanning, and Gu Si walked outside. Uncle Pei then looked at Gu Si and asked, "Do you know the situation at your uncle's house?"

Just now, when he heard Pei Yanning say that Gu Si was called away by Zhao Jianan, he had some guesses in his mind.

"It's in the mine..."

Pei Yanning knew a little about the Gu family's situation, but not much.

His mother-in-law's family lived in a village near a coal mine in the next county. They made a living by picking up coal slag and were slightly richer than the surrounding villages.

Looking at their expressions at this moment, Pei Yanning remembered what happened in the coal mine that he had learned about two days ago, and he had a vague guess in his mind.

Gu Si nodded and explained to Pei Yanning.

"He was buried in a mine. When he was rescued, he was already dead. His clothes were not in good condition. Gu Qingnan was worried and came to look for me. He couldn't control his emotions and scared Lingxi..."

When they were young, the younger generations of the Gu family often went to their uncle's house to pick up coal slag and sell it, and they had a very close relationship with their uncle.

When he learned that the person was gone, Gu Qingnan's emotions got a little out of control.

Gu Qingnan would come here from time to time. There were many nephews and nieces in the family, and he had seen many pregnant women. He knew Lingxi's condition was quite serious. He was worried that Lingxi would be scared to death, so he asked Zhao Jianan to come over and find an excuse to call Gu Si out.

Uncle Pei patted Gu Si's shoulder comfortingly, and then told him the reason why they came.

"The Gu family came over this afternoon to announce the death. When the old lady heard about the situation, she knew that the fourth son would definitely go, and it would take several days. She was worried about Lingxi, so she tried to persuade him, but he insisted on coming.

When Minghui heard that they were coming, he stepped on a small stool and packed his small bag, saying that he would come along no matter what.

Minghui is also easy to deal with. Even if he is disobedient, there is always a way to make him obedient.

But he couldn't persuade the old lady, and he thought that Lingxi grew up in front of the old lady, and the old lady knew exactly what she liked and disliked.

Finally, he brought the person here.

Pei Yanning nodded.

What could he say?
He can't send me back either.

The old lady really meant well.

and--

"You should go there."

Pei Yanning certainly knew that Gu Si was not Gu Qingbei, and had no feelings for Gu Qingbei's uncle, but this was not the case...

Gu Si nodded: "It would be great if grandma could come and help."

The old lady loves cleanliness and cooks delicious food...

The most important thing is that before Gu Si appeared, Lingxi had always eaten the special meal prepared by the old lady, so I think Lingxi should have gotten used to it.

Gu Si's expression relaxed a little and he continued.

"I was worried about Lingxi at first, and I wanted to come back and discuss it with Dad...

He will be away for at least three or four days.

You have to arrive at least one day before the wedding day, and you can't leave until the third day after the burial. Add on the time spent on the road, and three or four days may not be enough.

Transportation is inconvenient these days and all our time is wasted on the road.

He also said that if it really didn't work out, he would think of a way, or at worst not go.

But now that the old lady is here...

He just saw the old lady, and her complexion was better than before he sent the medicine bag back, but she still looked very sleep-deprived. However, he could just keep an eye on Lingxi at home and tell her not to do anything dangerous, and at most cook her a meal, which wouldn't be tiring for her.

Therefore, Gu Si agreed readily.

That's how the matter was settled.

The staple food was noodles. I opened a few cans of food at home and had some meat sauce, and that was all I ate.

While they are eating.

Gu Si discussed with Lingxi. "Fourth brother has to go on a long journey. He will leave with Second Uncle and the others in a while. He will be gone for three or four days. Can I let grandma stay at home and accompany you for the next few days?"

Lingxi was stunned for a moment.

Lingxi had never thought that Gu Si would be away for such a long time, but she knew very well that if possible, Gu Si would rather not leave Lingxi even a step. Now that he had spoken, there must be a reason for him to leave.

Therefore, Lingxi just nodded.

"Okay, then be careful."

She took off the optical computer on her wrist and put it on Gu Si's hand: "The space in here is bigger than the storage bag after all. I don't go anywhere at home. Besides, I have the pendant."

Gu Si rubbed her hair and said, "Don't worry, it's not a dangerous thing. We are going to the next county. Something happened in the Wang family, so I have to go there with the Gu family.

It's convenient to go back with my second uncle."

The Wang family is Wang Dongni’s mother’s family.

Lingxi suddenly realized.

She didn't ask much, but told Gu Si to bring more money.

Gu Si was usually used to using gold bars and ginseng, but when he went to Wang's house, it was obviously more appropriate to use money.

Because Second Uncle Pei and Pei Jin had to go to work the next day, they did not stay long. Pei Yanning directly brought them two kilograms of snacks and a pot of hot water, and asked them to take turns driving the car on the way and eat slowly.

Gu Si left with them.

The Gu family had to set out at dawn the next day. Gu Si could either leave now and go the same way as Uncle Pei and the others, or wait until three or four o'clock and go back to the village with Gu Qingnan.

Rather than tossing around in the middle of the night...

It would be better to call Gu Qingnan and Uncle Pei to go back now, and make room for the old lady and others to live in.

Before leaving, Gu Si looked at Pei Yanning.

Pei Yanning: “…”

That's his own daughter!
But he still said, "Okay, I will go back on time to watch her eat, and urge her to go for a walk in the evening."

Only then did Gu Si nod.

There are limited rooms in the house, so the old lady and Lingxi sleep together.

As for Minghui...

Minghui actually wants to sleep with him!
Pei Yanning is not honest and doesn't let the child sleep. Lingxi is in such a situation now. What if he touches Lingxi's belly? What should he do then?
Little Minghui could only sleep with Pei Yanning feeling aggrieved.

Too many things happened tonight, and Lingxi went to bed almost two hours later than usual. When everyone at home left, she could no longer hold on. She saw the old lady talking to her father, who yawned and went back to the house, and did not forget to say hello before leaving.

"Grandma, sleep with me! I've saved a place for you, don't forget to come over when it's time to sleep!"

The old lady smiled and said, "Okay, okay, go ahead, how can I be polite to you in my own home?
Look, you can’t even open your eyes.”

In the middle of the night, Lingxi woke up from the suffocation.

She subconsciously called out "Fourth Brother" in a daze.

Well, I want to go to the toilet. Before, Gu Si always accompanied me, but——

When she came to her senses, she realized that her fourth brother was not there and that the old lady was sleeping next to her. She quickly shut up and carefully propped herself up to sit up. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she did not wake the old lady.

The old lady suffered from insomnia some time ago, and now she can rarely sleep soundly.

Lingxi became more and more gentle in her movements.

Because she was worried that the light would blind her, she didn't pull the light cord. She just used the light coming in from the balcony window to enter the small flush bathroom that was specially built for her. When she closed the door, she didn't dare make any sound.

Nervous throughout.

Only after she lay back on the bed did she slowly slow down her breathing and breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she goes twice a night, sometimes just once, which is fine...

Still acceptable.

I barely had a good night's sleep.
