Seeing the relationship between the two children getting better, Lin Ling felt that the burden on her shoulders was lighter.

After talking to Xiao Xue'er for a while, she was so tired that she yawned and couldn't open her eyelids. Then she rubbed Xue'er's head and said, "Mom, go have a rest for a while and call twice for dinner. If you don't wake up, I'll get up later." eat by yourself."

Gu Panxue hummed.

Lin Ling walked into the house with Gu Yunting on his heels. As soon as the door closed, someone suddenly jumped into his arms, catching him off guard.

"What, what's wrong?" He asked helplessly, not knowing where to put his hands. He felt her sobbing and held her tightly with both hands: "I'm fine."

It's embarrassing to cry for such an adult. She quickly stopped and wiped her tears: "You are a hero."

I sincerely praise him. If it weren't for him, Mancheng doesn't know what would have happened, but it was too dangerous. As a wife, she was really scared.

Gu Yunting didn't know what to say and could only wipe her tears.

"sleep."

I was so tired that I felt like there was gravel rolling in my eyes, making them feel scratchy and blurry.

The moment she lay on the bed, she fell asleep before she could think about anything.

Gu Yunting pulled the quilt to cover her, looked at her face to face, and slowly fell asleep.

The next day.

Gu Yunting got up early and saw that the firewood at home was almost burned, so he asked Hu Panhui to go up the mountain with him.

Gu Panhui got up quickly and tied an iron block to his leg before going out.

While walking on the road, Gu Yunting noticed that it was impossible to master something like Qing Gong like this.

After going up the mountain, chopping firewood and carrying it down the mountain, although Gu Panhui was tired, he had no intention of giving up.

"I'll teach you how to breathe tonight."

"Ah? Dad, are you finally willing to teach me Qing Kung Fu?" Gu Panhui smiled so hard that his eyes were slitted. When his father nodded, he jumped even more excitedly.

But when he returned home, he happened to run into his grandma, uncle, aunt, and Ruirui, which cut his joy by half.

Gu Yunting's attitude was also indifferent, which made Bai want to speak several times, but then swallowed it back.

Finally returning home, Gu Yunting and Gu Panhui took apart the firewood and started chopping.

Gu Panrui saw that his uncle was inconvenienced and helped carry the wheelchair into the main room.

When he came out and saw his mother, he asked specifically: "Do you want to cook for grandma and the others?"

Lin Ling looked sideways and saw that the whole family was here, and he probably didn't plan to go home for dinner: "Have you brought anything?"

"Empty handed."

"Then don't do it."

They helped, but Lin Ling had no intention of supporting them, so she deliberately raised her voice loud enough to be heard by the people in the room.

Bai and Gu Dashan's expressions were ugly but also a little disdainful.

Sister-in-law Gu held Ruirui in her arms, feeling uncomfortable all over. She wanted to leave but couldn't.

As soon as she entered the house, Lin Ling pretended not to see the faces of the others, and called with a smile: "Mom, brother and sister-in-law, why are you here?" After asking, she called Ruirui: "Ruirui, go play with Xue'er. .”

Sister-in-law Gu pushed Ruirui out.

Just when Bai was about to speak, Gu Yunting came in and sat next to Lin Ling waiting. When the words came to her lips, she gritted her teeth and asked, "Is the rice selling business completely impossible?"

"It depends on what happens next in Mancheng." Lin Ling told the truth. After the barbarians were driven away, the price of rice might no longer be so cheap.

"In addition to growing herbal medicine, are there any other ways? You have also seen that my health is getting worse and worse, your eldest brother has difficulty moving, your sister-in-law is pregnant again, and I really can't plant the land."

Bai sighed, as if regretting. Lin Ling shook his head and said: "We can only farm. If you have other good ideas, you can share them with us."

"I……"

If Bai Shi wanted to get it, he would not bring his family here to do misery and get looked down upon.

There wasn't much money left, so she could only place her hope on Lin Ling: "Can you really make money by growing medicinal materials?"

"do not know."

Meng Yun can't count on it, and the barbarians may not need so many medicinal materials. Therefore, this medicine can only be sold domestically. It can be planted in a small area to test the water. Planting in a large area is afraid of losing money.

She simply made it clear: "We can only give it a try."

Bai sighed and looked at Gu Yunting: "Third brother, your elder brother is suffering, and so is your mother. Can you feel sorry for us?"

Gu Yunting frowned and didn't answer, feeling that it was not a good thing.

He didn't answer, and Ms. Bai didn't intend to shut up. She cried more and more sincerely: "Even if we want to farm, how can we plow such hard soil when I'm old? It's not convenient for your sister-in-law now, so just treat it like a mother-in-law." How about you guys, help us plow the land, and when we have a harvest, we will pay you the wages."

After all, it is a business that is guaranteed to make a profit. If you make money, you don't care about the three melons and two dates. If you don't make money, it's okay if you don't give it.

Lin Ling was speechless.

I looked at the weather forecast and it said it would rain in three days. After three consecutive days of heavy rain, there were only six days left.

Gu Yunting declined: "We are still piling up the goods and will go to Yicheng to sell them tomorrow."

"Can't we go later?" Bai asked.

"Even if I don't go, I won't do it. If you have money, you can hire workers." Gu Yunting was as indifferent as a stranger. He added: "Seeds are very expensive. You can think about it after you go home."

After saying that, he got up and forcibly saw off the guests and pushed Gu Dashan out.

Gu Dashan was so angry that he squeezed the armrest tightly and exhaled heavily through his nose.

Sister-in-law Gu said nothing and called Ruirui when she went out.

When Ruirui ran out, there were still sugar residues in the corners of her mouth, and she followed with her head buried in fear.

Mrs. Bai was worried about Gu Dashan, so she quickly followed him out. When she came back and looked at her indifferent third son, her tears fell down: "What a crime, what a crime!"

If she had known this, she would not have left her youngest son alone at that time, but now, she could not leave her eldest son behind, so she could only swallow her grievance and ask reluctantly.

"Yunting, when will you forgive mother?"

Gu Yunting finally showed an expression of indifference and sarcasm.

"You talk so nicely, but in fact you have been teasing me. Mother, won't I feel sad or aggrieved?"

This rhetorical question directly stopped Bai. Unable to answer, she could only leave in embarrassment.

People are gone.

Gu Yunting just chopped firewood as if nothing happened.

It's just that every stroke is very hard.

Gu Pangrui couldn't help but approach her mother and ask, "Mom, why can't you help grandma?" He was loyal, honest, and kind-hearted. Seeing how grandma and the others were doing today, he did feel a little soft-hearted.

Lin Ling looked at it and felt pitiful.

"After helping them once, there will be countless times. I can agree to help them sell rice and grow medicinal materials for them. I have done my best. If they ask for it again, they will treat us like cattle and horses."

The more Bai asked, the more chilled Gu Yunting became.

Gu Panrui seemed to understand and went into the kitchen to cook.

After dinner, Gu Yunting and Gu Panhui went to Yicheng to sell the goods early the next morning.
