Chapter 64 The treasures her mother left behind

Gu Xianglin seemed to be a little silent when this topic was mentioned. His lips moved for a long time and finally he sighed.

"Daughter, don't look for your mother's belongings and suicide note. Why don't you live a good life with Xiu Jin?"

He turned around and left without giving Gu Zhi a chance to ask him.

Gu Zhi refused to give up and reached out to stop him: "Why don't you say anything? Is it because of my aunt?"

Gu Xianglin didn't expect Gu Zhi to be so unwilling, and his face darkened.

"I told you not to look for me anymore, why are you so disobedient?"

There was anger hidden in his tone, and he lifted Gu Zhi's hand in front of him and strode towards the bedroom.

This cover-up made Gu Zhi feel that there was something fishy going on.

There were many guesses in his heart, and Gu Zhi stopped asking questions.

Since her uncle refused to tell, she would investigate on her own.

After staring at the bedroom with heavy eyes for a while, Gu Zhi returned to the bedroom.

She planned to ask the villagers for information later. It was said that the entrance to the village was an intelligence station for the village. I wonder if anyone knew about this.

Lunch is still rice with some wild vegetables that Gu Zhi brought back from the mountains.

This was the last meal, and Gu Yun's face almost turned green after eating it.

But she had something to do today, so after finishing her meal in a hurry, Gu Yun left.

Gu Zhi also had something to do, but lunch was still served in the bedroom.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Gu Zhi directly changed to a prepared lunch box, and just used the microwave oven in the space to heat it up.

Watching the two little ones finish eating with soft eyes, Gu Zhi threw the lunch box into a garbage bag and threw it into the space after going out.

It all happened so quickly that no one noticed.

Catching a glimpse of Gu Yun's hurried back, Gu Zhi frowned, thought for a moment, and followed Gu Yun's footsteps.

Although tracking is not very authentic.

Gu Yun walked all the way to the next village, which was Jiangjia Village. Most of the residents there were named Jiang.

After watching her look around for a while, she said something to the window of this house, and the window opened immediately.

After Gu Yun and the man rubbed each other's ears for a while, they didn't know what they said, and the man nodded.

After that, she got into the window and used her toes to figure out what she was doing in a strange man's house.

Although the window was wide open, the man seemed very alert and could not see his face clearly.

After thinking about it for a while, Gu Zhi tried to remember that man.

After a long time, Gu Yun finally came out, and then returned to Gu's house all the way. During this period, except for the occasional sly smile, she returned to normal when she returned home, and her mental state just now was not visible at all.

Gu Zhi's back felt cold, and he always felt like she was plotting something. Was he trying to harm her?
  I have to be on high alert lately.

After staring at Gu Yun who was chatting with Wan Shurong for a while, she went out.

It seems that she won't cause any trouble at the moment, so let's go get some information.

The afternoon is a good time for everyone to get together and chat.

People were crowded under the grape vine trellis in front of the village chief's house, and a white floor-standing fan in front was blowing at them.

It belongs to the village chief's family.

Many people saw Gu Zhi and greeted her with a smile.

"Xiao Zhi is home? Come sit here and blow the fan, I tell you it's cool!"

The grapevine trellis is covered with green plants, forming a shady area, and with the blessing of fans, it's not to mention how cool it is.

Gu Zhi obediently went over and sat on the small bench outside.

Many people started talking to her when they saw that she was pretty and well-behaved. Most of the people around here are adults and aunties. Some are holding cattail fans in their hands to fan the little grandchildren who are squatting on the ground and playing in the sand. Some are embroidering patterns on their clothes so that the children can have new clothes to wear.

"Are Gu Zhi and Xiao Jiang still getting used to each other? After getting married."

The speaker was Wang Qi, the aunt of the Wang family.

"Fortunately, the relationship is stable, pretty good."

That's not a lie, it's true.

The young woman Gu Wu who had just been married less than a month ago asked curiously: "Does your man like to take a bath? Mine doesn't like to take a bath. I have to push him every time I call him, but he listens to me. There was no quarrel."

There's something about showing off in this statement. Although she's complaining that the man in the family doesn't like to take a bath, it's actually showing off that her man is obedient.

Gu Zhi replied to her with a good temper: "My man loves to be clean. I don't need to rush him, he just washes himself."

In fact, Gu Zhi has no idea whether Jiang Xiujin likes to be clean or not. Who cares? Just praise and that's it.

It seemed that the conversation had started, and many aunts began to share their experiences. The uncle who was listening blushed and was speechless for a long time.

The crowd burst out laughing, and Gu Zhi couldn't help but laugh.

Thinking of the purpose of this trip, Gu Zhi pretended to ask casually: "I wonder what your aunts think of my mother?"

After a moment of silence, an aunt named Zhang couldn't help but said: "Your mother is a really good person, but it's a pity that your grandparents were so hard on her that she left early -"

"Ugh--"

When Gu Junru was mentioned, everyone sighed in unison, and Gu Junru's bride, who did not know her, asked the aunt next to her: "What happened to Gu Zhi's mother?"

"She could have gone to the city to live a good life, but she was forced to fall ill by her grandparents. They all said that the illness was like a string of silkworms and came back like a mountain. Even if you were sick, you would not give money to see a doctor. People Of course it’s gone——”

"Then did my mother leave anything behind after she died?"

Gu Zhi was looking forward to it and couldn't help asking the older woman.

Mrs. Gu shook her head: "What else is there? The aunt and uncle who adopted you have taken away all the little wealth you left behind. There is nothing left -"

"Originally, those are for you. I think there are a lot of beautiful jewelry among them!"

The mother-in-law felt that there was nothing worth concealing, so she told her everything. When she looked at Gu Zhi, there was pity and sympathy in her eyes.

Although the information obtained was very little, it was enough to make Gu Zhi's face turn as dark as black water.

"Thank you, otherwise I would still be kept in the dark!"

Gu Zhi sincerely thanked Mrs. Gu. Mrs. Gu had long seen that her purpose of coming here was impure, so she smiled and said, "Back then, I really liked Junru as my daughter-in-law. What a pity -"

These words made Gu Zhi scratch his head in embarrassment, not knowing how to answer.

The woman waved her hand and said nothing.

Gu Zhi smiled gratefully at her: "Then I'll leave first, and you can chat slowly."

"Walk slowly——"

Everyone said goodbye to Gu Zhi.

Gu Zhi waved to them, turned around and returned to Gu's house.

Her life experience is a mystery, and the cause of her mother's death is also very strange.

How could biological parents ignore a seriously ill child?
  There must be something missing, otherwise her mother would have died unjustly.

After thinking about it, Gu Zhi felt that she still had to ask her good aunt.

Going straight into Wan Shurong's bedroom, Gu Zhi saw Wan Shurong holding a box of snowflake cream and applying it.

Seeing her coming in, Wan Shurong was so frightened that she almost lost her grip and immediately put the things behind her, looking a little guilty.

"You damn kid, why didn't you knock on the door when you came in?"

She complained about Gu Zhi.
