Chapter 163: Mingxiu plank road
The two stayed at Guo Jia's house that night.
However, Han Xu did not sleep until dawn because he changed his bed.
He tossed and turned thinking about the case in the middle of the night, and fell asleep only when the sky was dim.
Li Le was different. He slept wherever he went, quite like Orange.
He snored loudly all night, almost waking up Guo Jia and his wife.
Han Xu couldn't stand it, pinched his nose several times at night, and almost stuffed Li Le's mouth with smelly socks.
The next morning, the two got up and washed up.
Guo Jia had bought breakfast from outside, fresh soy milk and fried dough sticks, enough for four or five people.
Han Xu and Li Le were not polite and ate heartily.
"Brother Guo, the soy milk here is really delicious, much better than ours," Li Le said while chewing the fried dough sticks.
Guo Jia smiled and said, "We use mountain spring water here, so the soy milk we grind is particularly sweet and delicious. You should drink a few more bowls."
Han Xu lowered his head and took a sip of soy milk. It was indeed unique in flavor, much better than the one in Yancheng.
While chatting and laughing, the three of them had finished their breakfast.
Li Le finally had time to ask, "Hey, where's your sister-in-law?"
"Your sister-in-law is on the early shift and went out to work before dawn. Let's get ready to go." Guo Jia cleaned up the dishes and changed into casual clothes.
Their task today was to renovate the pigpen of Grandpa Guo's house. They had to keep their promises.
Han Xu and Li Le also packed up and followed Guo Jia to Guojialing Village.
This time, they were familiar with the road. Li Le drove his Ford Raptor and led the way, almost leaving Guo Jia behind.
On Han Xu's reminder, Li Le slowed down the car.
However, it still didn't take long for Guojialing Village to come into view again.
After the three parked the car, they walked to Grandpa Guo's courtyard.
At this time, Grandpa Guo seemed to know that they would come, and he was waiting in the courtyard alone.
This time, Han Xu and Li Le did not come empty-handed, but bought some nutritional supplements on the way.
Grandpa Guo was alone at home, and it was really inconvenient for him to be in his physical condition.
Li Le put the things into the inner room with a familiar look, and Han Xu chatted with Grandpa Guo for a while.
Guo Jia watched from the side without saying much.
Grandpa Guo Genliang looked much better today than yesterday. As soon as he saw the three people, he greeted them warmly.
But when Han Xu mentioned his son Guo Feng, the old man's face changed, and he seemed to not want to talk about this filial son at all.
Han Xu saw that he didn't say a word, and there was nothing he could do.
Guo Jia sighed and signaled Han Xu with his eyes to ask again later.
Han Xu understood that Guo Jia was afraid that if he asked too much, the old man's body would not be able to bear it again.
Li Le just came out of the inner room, and seeing that the two of them had not gotten any information, he walked to the pigsty nearby.
There was still a lot of work to do, and he was not going to waste time here in the afternoon.
Seeing that Li Le had already started working, the two clapped their hands and stood up. After saying hello to Grandpa Guo, they began to repair the pigsty.
There is strength in numbers, and three people repairing a pigsty is as good as Zhuge Liang.
Time passed quickly, and with the concerted efforts of several people, the pigsty was completely renewed in a short period of time.
Li Le looked at the fruits of his labor with satisfaction, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart.
Although it was just a pigsty, this was the first time that Li Le, who was born in the second generation of the rich, had such an experience.
It felt pretty good.
Han Xu was of course also the first time in his life that the new bride got into the sedan chair, and he felt that his work was not in vain.
Now that this pigsty has been reinforced, it can finally be called a pigsty, but it's a pity that there are no real pigs in it.
Seeing the two people's happy faces, Guo Jia also understood that this might be the first time for them to repair the pigpen at their age, and they just felt novel.
Han Xu looked down at the watch, and time had passed for more than two hours without realizing it.
At this time, the sun had already risen.
"It's getting late, we should go back." Han Xu was ready to go home.
Li Le responded, it was indeed time to go back, it had been a day and a night since they came out.
Guo Jia knew that the two wanted to go back to Yancheng when he heard this, and he didn't try to keep them.
Han Xu and Li Le made up their minds, and said goodbye to Grandpa Guo and prepared to leave.
It happened that Grandpa Guo's dementia recurred at this moment, and he could not recognize people.
He kept grabbing Li Le and shouting, "Mingyuan, you can't leave! It's not easy to come home, you can't leave no matter what!"
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional.
Han Xu and Guo Jia looked at each other after hearing Grandpa Guo's unintentional words.
"Guo Mingyuan has been back?" Li Le was not stupid, and he reacted almost instantly.
Han Xu winked at Li Le, and Li Le understood and said along with Uncle Guo, "Okay, I won't leave, I won't leave!"
Uncle Guo saw Li Le stopped and quickly pulled him back, "Mingyuan, is your mother okay?"
Li Le frowned and agreed, "She's fine, nothing serious, let me come back to see you!"
"Hehe," Uncle Guo suddenly looked a little lonely, "Don't lie to me, your mother will never forgive me in her life, it's all my fault, I failed you and your mother, I'm not a human being!
I was obsessed at the time, fell in love with that vixen, and that's why your mother was angry and left.
But your mother was too cruel. How old were you at that time? She hugged you and left without giving me any chance.
Alas, it has been almost thirty years since I left.
Mingyuan, it would be great if you were by my side.
That guy Guo Feng is too stupid.
You don’t know, our house in the city was demolished before, and we were compensated a lot of money!
But your brother took all this money, and he doesn’t care where I live?
I had no choice but to come back to my hometown.
I usually don’t have any company, so I grow some vegetables.
A few days ago, I can’t remember exactly how many days it was.
I just remember that your brother Guo Feng came back. I asked him for money, but he said he didn’t have it and it was all spent.
It's so much money, how can I spend it all?
I definitely don't believe it, but he doesn't care about me.
He said he would help me build a pigsty and raise a few pigs to keep me company.
Listen to what this bastard said.
But this bastard was building a pigsty, and someone came to see him.
It seemed like there was a quarrel.
That kid locked me in the room without any explanation, and I didn't even know what was happening outside.
After a long time, after that boy released me, hey, don't tell me that his attitude towards me suddenly changed for the better.
They were shouting one after another, which made me feel awkward. "
Uncle Guo spoke for a long time in one breath, but all three of them were stunned on the spot!
I have to say that in just a few minutes, the amount of information is quite large!
