Chapter 342 She Seems to Be in Trouble
Chapter 342 She Seems to Be in Trouble
When she brought the child to the village entrance, she did not see the donkey cart, but saw Zhao Dong and three others returning from Niutou Mountain carrying bamboo baskets.
"The boss hasn't come back yet?" Zhao Dong saw that Luo Meihua had not left, so he walked closer and asked.
Luo Meihua shook her head. "Brother Dong, when you two separated, didn't she say what she was going to do?"
Zhao Dong only knew that she brought some homemade paper in the car today, and thought she was going to give it to the bookstore, but she should have returned from the bookstore in the town long ago.
Zhao Dong shook his head in confusion. "She didn't say anything. She just said she had to go do something. Zhao Nan and I will come back first."
"She is so anxious. It's getting dark soon, but there's no sign of her..." Just as Luo Meihua was muttering, Zhao Dong looked into the distance and suddenly said, "There's a car coming back over there. It should be the boss coming back."
As he finished speaking, several people stretched their necks to look towards the road leading into the village.
Only after they were sure it was her did Zhao Dong and his friends feel relieved and each of them went home carrying a bamboo basket of stones.
When the donkey cart got closer, Luo Meihua shouted, "Sister-in-law, why did you come back just now... Hey, Brother Xi and Brother Zhong, you guys are back too."
Luo Meihua and Gu Qingqing were talking halfway when they saw Zhao Xi and Zhao Zhong jumping down from the rear of the car. Luo Meihua was not very familiar with them, but Yu Zhu was always calling him brother. She was in the same room with Yu Zhu, so naturally she followed suit.
"Whoa whoa!" Gu Qingqing shouted, and the donkey cart stopped without her pulling the reins.
"Why are you here? Are you waiting for me?" Gu Qingqing asked as she jumped off the donkey cart.
Zhao Zhong heard Luo Meihua greeting him and smiled at her, "I just met my boss on the road and got a ride back. What has Yuzhu been busy with these days?"
"He has been helping us dig bamboo shoots these two days. I heard him say in the afternoon that he wanted to come and play with you guys. Now I don't know where he has gone." Luo Meihua replied.
"Haha, our work in town will be over in two days, so we should have a good reunion then." Zhao Zhong said, and waved to Gu Qingqing and Luo Meihua, "You guys chat, we'll go back first."
Gu Qingqing apologized to her, "I came back late again today."
Before Luo Meihua could say anything, Xiaoyang and Xiaoguang ran to Gu Qingqing and called out "Auntie" in unison.
Gu Qingqing knew that they were greeting her, so she quickly squatted down and hugged the two little ones, admiring them, "You are so good, have you two been obedient at home?"
"Aunt, we are very obedient. It's just you who is not obedient. Why did you come back at this time? Grandma said there will be wolves outside after dark, so we should go back to the house to sleep." Xiaoguang accused Gu Qingqing seriously.
Gu Qingqing couldn't help but pat his butt and said, "Oh, it's getting dark soon, don't you want to go back to bed?"
"Aunt, I'll go back and have dinner and then go to bed."
"Okay, both of you come here." Luo Meihua pulled the two back, and then said to Gu Qingqing, "Sister-in-law, I have something to tell you."
Gu Qingqing saw that she looked a little serious, and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Didn't you ask me to stay home and watch for people from your mother's family today? Your brother didn't come today, only your sister-in-law came. But I think Xiaocao seems to have something on her mind."
"Is there something wrong? Did she say anything? Did something happen at my mother's side?" When Gu Qingqing heard this, she subconsciously thought of Gu Daquan and the original owner's grandmother. Could it be that these two were showing off their power at home again?
Then she remembered that when she went back home two days ago, her home was quite peaceful. "This shouldn't be the case. I didn't hear anything happened when I went back a few days ago." Gu Qingqing murmured in her heart.
"She didn't say anything. She just kept asking me when you would be back. I asked her if she had something else to talk to you about. She said no, but I saw that she must have something else. She pulled out the sweet potato seedlings and didn't leave in a hurry. She waited for you for two cups of tea, but when you didn't come back, she took the sweet potato noodles and the jar of oil you left and left." Luo Meihua told Gu Qingqing what she felt today.
After hearing this, Gu Qingqing couldn't guess what happened to Xiaocao. She thought that there should be no problem between them. Although Gu Zhuangzhuang was tall and strong, he did not inherit Gu Daquan's domestic violence gene.
My mother has just become the head of the family and she has a soft personality. She wouldn't play the role of a vicious mother-in-law to bully Xiaocao. After thinking about it, if something really happened at home, it would probably be only the two people on the kang who could cause trouble.
Gu Qingqing found that she couldn't come up with an answer at all, so she simply asked Meihua, "Did she say when she would come next time?"
Luo Meihua thought for a moment and said, "From what I heard, she meant to come back the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, then I got it. I won't go out the day after tomorrow and wait for her at home."
If Xiaocao didn't come, she planned to go back in a few days. She had now decided to open a shop in the town, so naturally she needed manpower.
She was also thinking about this on the way back from town, but she was a little undecided between Meihua, Yuzhu, Xiaocao and Zhuangzhuang.
"Thank you for your hard work. You're still waiting for me so late. Next time you encounter something like this, just leave a message to your children at home. I'll do the same when I come back to find you." Gu Qingqing said to her.
"It's just a matter of waiting. I don't have to go back to cook. Now that you're back, go back quickly. It's getting late. I want to go back too." After Luo Meihua said this, she saw Gu Qingqing raised his chin behind her. When she turned her head, she saw Niu Yuzhu walking towards them.
"Yuzhu is here, go back quickly, I'm going back too."
After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she watched Niu Yuzhu pick up the two children with one arm and put one on his shoulder. She chuckled and took her children home.
Li Xin imitated Niu Yuzhu and wanted to let Sanhua ride on his neck and carry her back, but was stopped by Dahua.
"Just hold her." Dahua said with some difficulty.
Li Xin thought she was worried that she would fall, so he showed her his rat meat, "I have plenty of strength, I won't fall."
Seeing that he wouldn't listen, Dahua finally told the truth, "Sanhua pooped on the way back."
"......! Aunt, what are these in the car?" Li Xin, who was unable to carry the person, asked while looking at the things in the car in the dim light.
"These are some flowers my mother bought." Dahua said to him from the side.
"Buy flowers? What are you buying flowers for?" Li Xin didn't understand either.
Instead, he said to Erhua next to him, "Flowers? Flowers are of course for beauty. When they bloom, they smell sweet and the petals are beautiful too."
Gu Qingqing saw that someone finally stood on the same line with her. She also imitated Erhua and said, "Of course it's for beauty. When the flowers bloom, they will smell sweet and the petals will be beautiful. Just looking at them makes people happy."
