Chapter 208 Don’t Run Away If You Can
At this time, Pei Fuzhu had been with Lingxi for more than two hours.
She was talking about this and that, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself. If Lingxi didn't know what she wanted to do at first, her hesitating and stammering, as if she had something to say but didn't know where to start, finally made Lingxi get the point.
Lingxi had finished eating and drinking the pastries and hot milk that she had laid out. She was thinking that she might as well tell Pei Fuzhu directly, but Gu Si and the others just happened to come back at this moment.
Pei Yu and Pei Jin carried the big one, while Gu Si carried the small one.
Gu Si just used one hand, but he did it effortlessly and with ease.
Pei Fuzhu was racking her brains to talk about this and that, but she never expected to see this scene inadvertently.
She swallowed, raised her hand with a little trembling, and asked Lingxi to go see Gu Si.
"He he he..."
Gu Si, who had been avoiding people outside and didn't expect that there were outsiders in his house: "..."
Lingxi was instantly happy when she saw Gu Si coming back: "..."
The atmosphere became quiet for a moment.
Lingxi rolled her eyes and asked curiously, "Who? What happened?"
She seemed to be looking in the direction Pei Bok Joo was pointing, with a confused look on her face.
Pei Bok Joo was stunned.
Gu Si realized that Ling Xi was trying to play a trick on him: "..."
Okay, as long as his wife is happy.
While Pei Fuzhu's attention was on Lingxi, Gu Si used the pool as a cover to place the wild boar in Pei Fuzhu's blind spot, and then quickly left.
Therefore, when Pei Fuzhu looked back, the yard was empty and there was no one there.
Pei Fuzhu: "..."
!!!
Pei Fuzhu looked at Lingxi with some uncertainty, and saw Lingxi looking at his shaking hands in confusion.
Subconsciously, she stretched out her other hand and pushed her down, only then did she find her voice again.
"Just now, Gu Qingbei came back? And he was carrying a wild boar?"
Lingxi blinked: "Huh?"
Pei Fuzhu saw Lingxi also looking into the yard, and her expression paused slightly.
No!
No!
still none!
"Did you really not see Gu Qingbei just now?" Pei Fuzhu wanted to cry.
It can’t be that the sun has already set, so this and that thing have already come out!
Pei Fuzhu became more and more anxious as she thought about it, and she got goose bumps all over her body.
Lingxi felt a little guilty seeing her like this.
"Then what..."
Pei Bok Joo did not give up and took two steps down the corridor to avoid the blind spot. The plump wild boar was instantly exposed in front of Pei Bok Joo.
Lingxi: “…”
Pei Fuzhu: "..."
!!!
"Ahhhh!"
"Lingxi, I'm going to fight you!"
Lingxi was frightened when she saw Pei Fuzhu making such a threatening move, and she quickly dodged.
Pei Fuzhu was angry: "If you have the ability to scare me, don't run away if you have the ability!"
Lingxi was playing around in the yard, "You're not as good as me!
You used to scare me every day, saying that you wanted God to strike me down, so what do you say?"
Pei Fuzhu choked, panting and supporting herself on her knees, staring at the person not far away whose clothes she couldn't even touch.
Lingxi didn't blush or breathe heavily.
"Don't be so angry!
Pei Fuzhu: "..." Pei Fuzhu snorted coldly: "So, it was really Gu Qingbei just now? Where did he get so much strength?!"
Lingxi coughed and pushed directly towards Pei Yanning.
"We've lived with Dad for such a long time, it's normal for Fourth Brother to have made some progress."
Pei Fuzhu: "..."
This means that one hand can lift more than 100 kilograms of meat!
You want him to make some progress?
There are many people like him in Peijia Village, so it is not uncommon. But in other places, ordinary strong laborers are not as strong as him.
Pei Bok Joo started to feel jealous again.
She was not jealous that Lingxi could find someone like Gu Si, but she was jealous that her uncle had gone to so much trouble to train a Gu Si.
Lingxi's mouth twitched. Looking at her expression...
She quickly changed the subject: "I heard from my dad and others that some acquaintances seem to be coming from the capital in the next two days. They said they are here to help with the disaster. I wonder if they will stay at home."
Pei Fuzhu: "..."
!!!
Her attention was instantly diverted.
I tried hard to restrain myself so that the expectation in my eyes would not be too obvious.
"Really? They are all my uncle's acquaintances. They have come all the way to our small county. We must bring them back and entertain them!"
Lingxi: “…”
"Yes, it's possible!"
It's really for this!
Pei Fuzhu's eyes flickered, and something flashed through her mind. She asked Lingxi, "How many are there? How old are they? What do they look like?
My uncle’s acquaintance shouldn’t be too much older than him, probably in his early twenties!”
She was just about to ask directly if there was anyone more suitable for her.
Lingxi shook her head: "I don't know either, Dad didn't tell me."
Pei Bok Joo was a little disappointed, but not too disappointed.
As early as when her uncle was transferred back to the machinery factory, she was already a little unsure about the future direction of her life.
After all, my uncle changed his job in the previous life and did not come back last year. The first time he came home after many years was during the flood relief work.
Pei Fuzhu was immersed in his own thoughts and forgot about Lingxi for a moment.
Gu Si and the Pei family sent a big wild boar to the village. They wanted to cook all the meat and share it out as a pig-killing dish. The village instantly became lively.
Some people were boiling water, some were slaughtering pigs, and some were moving cabbage, vermicelli and other things to the canteen built by the brigade headquarters.
The villagers, who had suffered a lot due to the continuous heavy rain, were now suddenly as happy as if it were New Year, and it was lively and bustling.
Wild boars have a strong fishy smell and their meat is not as good as that of domestic pigs, but young wild boars taste much better.
As for sending it to the village...
Of course there are people who pursue taste in this era, but for the villagers who don’t know where their next meal will come from after the last one, filling their stomachs is the most important thing.
When Gu Si, Pei Jin and Pei Yu brothers came back, they happened to see Pei Fuzhu walking out absent-mindedly with a basket.
Minghui and Mingyang, two kids, played outside for a whole afternoon and finally knew it was time to go home. They ran into the yard in a hurry, but they never expected to bump into each other head-on.
Pei Jin and Pei Yu stepped forward quickly, and Pei Jin supported Pei Fuzhu, who was staggering and almost falling.
Pei Yu picked up the two little kids who had fallen on their butts.
"How old are you? Don't you know how to look at the road before walking?" Pei Jin frowned, looking at these people who were not so worrying.
Minghui and Pei Bozhu stood up straight instantly, both feeling a little guilty. Mingyang had just joined and he followed suit.
Pei Bok Joo was knocked back to her senses instantly, but when she saw Ming Yang, her expression was horrified. She subconsciously took two steps back and pointed at Ming Yang.
"you you you……"
Her reaction was obviously wrong, as if she was a little scared.
Gu Si and Pei Jin, knowing that Pei Fuzhu was a little special, looked at each other.
What happened to Mingyang?
But no matter what...
Pei Jin pressed Pei Fuzhu's hand down, and his tone was as gentle as ever: "Who taught you to point at people when talking to them?"
