Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Chapter 231 Xihua Village



Chapter 231 Xihua Village

Chen Biyun first moistened her throat, then asked tentatively: "When the fog came that day, I was briefly awake. Did Gu Qinghan crawl into your bed?"

"Ok?"

"How could you have such an illusion?"

Xuyuan asked back.

"I just thought about it for a long time. There's no reason why I'm wrong. That's why I'm asking you out of curiosity."

Chen Biyun felt that it was not convenient to have a conversation while wrapped in the quilt, so she lay down again.

"Then you must have seen it wrong!" Xu Yuan said righteously.

I thought it was something else, but it turned out to be about myself again. So boring.

"Ah? But why do I have such an illusion?"

"That's impossible." Chen Biyun didn't believe it and looked at Xu Yuan with doubt.

"You said you were awake for a short while, but did you see me wake up?"

"Maybe not."

Xu Yuan lay on the bed and turned to Chen Biyun: "That's it, maybe you saw the wrong direction. Besides, the fog is so unclear, how do you know it's Gu Qinghan, could it be that you..."

"No, no." Chen Biyun waved her hands repeatedly, fearing unnecessary misunderstandings. After all, she did have feelings for Gu Qinghan at first, but she didn't care at all when she found out that he unconsciously made intimate gestures towards Xu Yuan, and she was only full of gossip. At that time, she knew that she didn't have feelings for Gu Qinghan. She knew that he was interested in Xu Yuan, and she was full of blessings, but it seemed that there was no sign of any progress.

"Weren't it Gu Qinghan and Feng Juesheng who were keeping watch that day? Didn't you sleep near me? Who else could have sneaked into your bed for no reason but Gu Qinghan?" Chen Biyun spoke boldly and made a bold guess, without noticing that Xu Yuan beside her had a dark face.

"Okay, you must have looked in the wrong direction. Go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow morning." Xu Yuan quickly ended the topic, yawned and closed his eyes.

Still can't figure out why!

Chen Biyun looked at Xu Yuan who had fallen asleep on the side with some disappointment and sighed.

Could it be that I really saw it wrong?

After all, my mind was not clear at that time, so it was normal that I saw it wrong. Besides, there didn't seem to be any spark between the two of them. Alas.

Thinking of this, Chen Biyun fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning.

After enjoying one last rich breakfast at the inn, everyone started their journey.

Xihua Village is located in the West District of Chunyang City. After passing through the West District, the scenery on the road gradually began to change. There were fewer houses and more trees. The road was covered with snow, and the tire tracks on the snow were in a mess, mixed with the mud road, and a small pit appeared from time to time.

"Old Niu, is this the whole road? I want to vomit the breakfast I had this morning." Uncle Liu covered his mouth and relaxed for a while, then put down his hand and couldn't help turning to ask Uncle Niu.

"Just bear with it and you'll be fine after walking this distance. But don't vomit in the car." Seeing him like this, Uncle Niu patted Uncle Liu on the shoulder.

It was indeed as Uncle Niu said, after walking this section of the road, the road began to flatten out, and after walking for a long time, it began to wind around in the woods.

Village Chief Gu and Chen Dafu, who were following behind, kept a close eye on him at all times, fearing that they would lose sight of him after turning a corner.

"Old Wang, walk a little further and you will see a big rock. We'll be there." Uncle Niu shouted to Uncle Wang who was sitting in front of him and hurried on the road, then he pulled aside the curtain and looked at the increasingly familiar road section.

I can't help but sigh: I haven't been here for a long time, and it still looks the same as before.

After a while, Uncle Wang saw a big stone with the words "Xihua Village" engraved on it. "We are finally here."

"What's next?"

"Old Wang, please sit in the back. I'll drive the car." Uncle Niu lifted the curtain in front and patted Uncle Wang who was sitting in the front seat.

"Okay." Uncle Wang made way for Uncle Niu to come out.

"What's wrong?" Village Chief Gu saw that the car in front had stopped, and he pulled the cow rope to catch up.

Uncle Wang explained, "It's nothing. Lao Niu needs to drive the car for a while, so we changed." Then he sat in the back.

"Let's go. Go straight to the right from the entrance of the village and walk to the end, and you will find my nephew's home." Uncle Niu pulled the rope and pointed the way.

Xu Yuan sat in the car, opened the curtain at the back and looked out.

The houses were not concentrated in one place, but scattered here and there. There were a few children playing outside the houses. When they saw a ox cart coming in from the village entrance, they looked over with curiosity.

The doors of every household were closed, and red couplets were pasted on the courtyard gates. Red leather was scattered on the ground, which were the traces left by the burning firecrackers.

“Woof woof woof…”

Two dogs jumped out from a house and started barking at a group of people who had just entered the village.

"Go, go, go, go, go back." Hearing the sound of barking dogs, the houses with closed doors opened and people came out to watch. An old man leaned against the door of his house with a fire basket and drove away the two barking dogs. He looked at Uncle Niu who was walking in front of him and said, "Old brother, whose family are you from?"

"No way, I just haven't been here for a while, old buddy, you don't remember me? I'm Niu Mingde! Old Lu."

The person standing in front of the door suddenly opened his eyes wide, walked forward, and said happily: "Hey, Ade, how come you have time to come here? Where's Xiu? Why didn't I see him come back?"

Then he looked at the two cars behind him, where Village Chief Gu and Chen Dafu were sitting. "These are... unfamiliar faces."

Village Chief Gu and Chen Dafu both nodded to Old Lu.

"You said Ah Xiu, you are busy. The reason I came here this time is because my nephew wrote to me and said that the sow at home gave birth to piglets, and recommended a few friends to come and buy them."

"Let's not talk about it for now. I'll chat with you later if I have time."

"Okay, you go first."

The two of them chatted briefly and then walked to the end of the road.

"Qinghan, wake up. You've been sleeping all the way. We're almost there." Li Junhan kicked Gu Qinghan, trying to wake him up. This guy had been sleeping since he got in the car, as if he hadn't gotten enough sleep. The bumpy road just now didn't wake him up. Li Junyong had to admire him a little.

Gu Qinghan opened his hazy eyes, his pupils were bloodshot, and he said in a low voice, "Aren't we going back after selling the piglets? If you don't rest, who will travel at night?"

"Anyway, I'm very alert now and not sleepy at all. There's no problem for me to travel all night." Li Junyong made the decision, looking very energetic. After speaking, he pulled aside the curtain and looked outside.

"I have to say, there are still more fields here than in our village." Li Junyong felt a little emotional when he saw the large tracts of vacant land.

Gu Qinghan, who had just woken up, couldn't fall asleep anymore. He also looked outside and answered, "How long has our village been established?"

"Yes, we still need to work harder."

The ox cart moved forward, attracting the attention of all the villagers in Xihua Village along the way.
