The fierce stepmother of the farm family, brought her cubs to get rich

Chapter 25 Which Pot Can't Be Opened and Lifted

"Let's go."

Gu Manxiu had a great time playing, the fish in this river were so stupid that even a piece of grass could be used as bait.

The clear voice of the boy behind her slightly startled her, then she dropped the weeds in her hands, got up and patted the ashes.

She approached tentatively: "Is it clean so quickly?"

"Can you go away!" Gao Yuanshan didn't know what kind of back scale was touched, he roared angrily, turned around and left on his own.

Why didn't I step down just now!

Obviously all ready!
Fumbling for the clothes on his body, his tangled expression was extremely obvious.

Gu Manxiu walked very well, her body was like a willow in March, she was lazy and charming, she poked the half-grown kid beside her: "The death of your parents has nothing to do with me."

"You did it!"

Gao Yuanshan seemed to have been scalded by Gu Manxiu's fingertips, and jumped a few meters away. He looked at Gu Manxiu with disgust, hatred and pain pierced through, fully revealed.

From his stressful reaction, Gu Manxiu gradually realized that this matter was not as simple as a misunderstanding.

Judging from the attitudes of the three of them towards her, they hated her to the bone, and why did this group of half-grown kids be so sure that they were murderers?

Even to the point of killing himself.

Doubts abounded, and she still needed to discover them slowly.

"elder brother!"

As soon as the two entered the house, Gao Xiaoyue shouted in surprise. She rushed to Gao Yuanshan and hugged each other's legs.

"I miss you so much, where have you been!"

There were bursts of small milk voices with vague grievances, but it melted Gao Yuanshan's heart.

He lowered his body, put his hands under the little girl's armpit, and hugged her vigorously, "Don't cry, don't cry, brother, isn't it all right?"

"Just now you were taken away by the bad guys, I was so scared." I felt pity for Gao Xiaoyue crying, "I thought I would never see you again..."

With his hands behind his back, the little fist obediently wiped away his tears.

Gao Yuanshan's heart ached in pain: "Are you hungry?"

"Yeah." Gao Xiaoyue hummed and nodded: "Is brother hungry too?"

Gao Yuanshan nodded: "Yes."

"Don't come to the kitchen when you're hungry?" Gu Manxiu stood aside and watched the tear-jerking scene, not much moved: "Speed."

Gao Changhe rushed the fastest, for fear that he would starve himself if he was late.

"Second brother is too much! Brother, chase after me!" Gao Xiaoyue shouted not to be outdone, and the child who was still crying was instantly divided and distracted.

The lively shouts filled the entire courtyard, and for a moment, Gu Manxiu really felt a little happy.

But soon, she shook her head and denied the idea.

I have traveled here aimlessly, and I have no feelings for these children, and they are the same for me. It is estimated that when they are raised until they admit it, this task will be over.

But who knows, in the days to come, how close will she be with these children?

After noon, Gu Manxiu squatted on the patio steps in the yard, thinking about how to plan for the next day, when a deep male voice came from behind, with a teasing smile.

"With so much firewood, are you going to burn my friend's house?"

This familiar tone is undoubtedly the teacher.

Today's Jiang Yichen is dressed in white clothes, with long hair half up, the rest casually scattered behind his back, with an emerald green jade pendant around his waist, it is obviously a monotonous color of clothing, but it is hard to move one's eyes away from him.

"Of course not." Gu Manxiu glanced at him, and watched him sit down beside her: "I'm all for sale. I found someone a few days ago, and he came to the door in a while."

As soon as money was mentioned, Gu Manxiu's eyes lit up a little, like a little fox scheming.

"I figured it out, this money is just enough to make up for the materials for rebuilding the house!"

Jiang Yichen asked, "What about manpower?"

"..." Can you stop which pot is not open and which pot to lift?
Noticing the changing expression of the person beside him and the gradually murderous eyes, he laughed softly: "You don't want to do it yourself, you have enough food and clothing?"

Gu Manxiu tightened her five claws, "I can cripple you first."

"The girl is so irritable." Jiang Yichen smiled slightly, raised his hand towards Gu Manxiu and said: "A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands."

Gu Manxiu rushed forward, "I am not a gentleman!"

Jiang Yichen leaned back, his black hair fluttering in the air, and he protected Gu Manxiu's back with one hand not too far away, afraid that this person would lose his focus.

The real idea in Gu Manxiu's mind was to give this person a little bit of power. For a moment, he forgot that men and women are very different in this era. Seeing that his hands were about to touch Jiang Yichen's neck, Gu Manxiu paused, turned his hands in the direction, and could barely hold on. Beside Jiang Yichen's ear.

Not only that, because of this large movement, the breaths of the two were entangled together.

Why did you give someone to the wall! ! ! !

Gu Manxiu hurriedly backed away, retracted her body, and scratched her head: "Sorry."

Jiang Yichen laughed dumbfounded: "Huh?"

Why did you suddenly talk about it?

This kind of embarrassment seemed to only last for a moment. After saying this, Gu Manxiu recovered her expression just now.

Gu Manxiu glanced at the sky, stood up and looked down at the man who was still a little confused, and said, "Work has started, I don't have time to chat with you."

Jiang Yichen showed doubts, "Start work?"

This morning, she just came back from chopping firewood, and the child was exhausted and paralyzed in the afternoon, yet she still had the strength to do other things.

From far away, it was the girl's beautiful and lively voice: "Do it yourself, and have enough food and clothing!"

Looking at Gu Manxiu who seemed to have endless strength, Jiang Yichen's eyes darkened gradually, recalling the situation of the previous inquiry, the suspicion in his heart became deeper and deeper.

Can the same person change so much?

Gu Manxiu thought of many ways to make money, but the fastest way was selling animal fur.

Regardless of whether it is ancient or modern, it is a first-class clothing material. If you can find the right way to sell it, the labor cost of the house can be easily solved.

I have an ax in my hand and can kill prey. I believe it is no problem to deal with one or two minks.

Thinking this way, when night fell, Gu Manxiu went into the forest to hunt.

With her background as an agent and the bonus of the axe, she soon managed to hunt two minks.

Although the process was tortuous and she suffered some minor injuries, the final result was harmless.

He took the animals to the market and sold them at an unusual price.

Add up to sell a total of twenty taels of gold.

This is a windfall for such a poor family as the Gao family.

Gu Manxiu made a simple plan. This time, he plans to expand the house into five rooms, and give it to that person...

Come one too.

Although I don't know if the other party will stay.

The other party never mentioned when to leave, and she didn't bother to ask.

"Forget it." After collecting the money she earned from selling mink fur, Gu Manxiu lay down on the bed and rested.

Early the next morning, she went to the village to gather people, planning to hire seven to eight neighbors to help her build a house.

The people in Murakami were already enthusiastic, and with the addition of Gu Manxiu's willingness to spend a lot of money on gifts, even more people came.

After a while, eight candidates were selected, and it was scheduled to start construction the day after tomorrow, and the house could be handed over early next month.

As for the current period of time, he had no choice but to continue to bother Jiang Yichen's friends.

Maybe, it's time for me to treat someone to a good meal. After all, I've been eating and drinking at someone's house for so long, and I don't feel sorry if I don't treat them.
