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

Chapter 469 Do you know he's back?



Chapter 469 Do you know he's back?

Gu Qinghan suddenly felt a chill on his body and woke up immediately.

Xu Yuan then put down the thin blanket in his hand and said unhappily, "When is it? Why don't you go back quickly?"

Gu Qinghan realized it belatedly and took a look at the gloomy weather outside. Fortunately, the villagers were still at home at this time.

If I go back now, no one will notice me.

Gu Qinghan quickly got out of bed and put on the coat beside the bed. He tidied up his messy hair, turned to look at Xu Yuan and said, "Ayuan, see you later."

After saying this, he jumped out of the window and considerately closed the window.

Fortunately, there are not many houses nearby. If Gu Qinghan was caught like this, it would be terrible.

Xu Yuan sighed helplessly and pushed the door open.

……

Because he was wearing a nightgown, Gu Qinghan certainly wouldn't let the villagers see him, so he would walk very fast.

It was a grey day, the mountains were full of fog, and the air was filled with a damp, muddy smell.

When I returned home, the lights were already on in the kitchen, and wisps of white smoke were wafting out of the chimney above the roof.

Gu Qinghan tiptoed to the side of his room and climbed in through the window.

"Meow!!"

A shrill cat cry suddenly sounded, and a yellow and white cat seemed to have its tail stepped on. It cried out in pain and wanted to stretch out its claws to scratch Gu Qinghan's feet, but Gu Qinghan quickly dodged. After Wu Gu felt that the feeling of being stepped on its tail was gone, he jumped onto the window and jumped out quickly.

Gu Qinghan felt very sorry about this.

No wonder I felt something was wrong with the ground I was walking on just now.

Wugu suddenly let out a loud cry so loud that even Xu Qing, who was sitting in front of the kitchen stove making a fire, heard it. Just as he was about to get up to see what was going on, he saw Wugu jumping into the kitchen, rubbing against Xu Qing's legs, then slapping Wudong, who was sleeping soundly curled up in the rice stalks, with one paw, and then running away. His fat belly swayed from time to time, but it did not affect his flexible movement at all.

Wudong was sleeping soundly. When he was hit by a claw in his sleep, he just turned over and continued to sleep.

Xu Qing just sighed softly at this. Wasn't Wugu quite well behaved when he was little? Why is he so naughty now? Sometimes his behavior is really naughty.

Gu Qinghan changed out of his nightgown, went into the bathroom, washed up, and then walked towards the kitchen.

"Hey, when did you come back? Are you back from visiting the girls?" Xu Qing heard the noise behind the door, put down the wooden spoon in her hand, looked up, and when she saw that it was her eldest son, she raised the corner of her mouth and teased.

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Gu Qinghan sat in front of the stove, added some dry firewood into it, and said calmly.

"Okay, just pretend. I saw you climbing out the window last night. I'm not blind. I saw it clearly. What were you doing in black clothes in the middle of the night, you little brat?"

"You're not going to disturb the girl, are you? Tell me the truth." Xu Qing walked up and slapped Gu Qinghan on the back.

"Have you read your books into a dog's stomach?"

"Mom, Li Junyong and I went to the county town. We drove Li Junyong's ox cart. We just went to investigate the situation."

Ever since Li Junyong's family got an unexpected fortune, they naturally bought a cow, which they originally didn't have. The cow is stronger than any other cow in the village, and using it to drive a cart can make the journey much faster.

Gu Qinghan told the truth, he did go to the county town, but not with Li Junyong.

"Really?" Xu Qing was full of disbelief.

"Really, what did I lie to you for?"

"Okay, I'll believe what you say. Just don't go to the girl's house in the middle of the night. Although you and Xiaoyuan have an engagement, you can't do something that's beyond the pale until you get married."

"Mom, how can you think of me like that? Am I that kind of person?" Gu Qinghan's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly.

At most, it’s just kissing, hugging, holding hands, etc.

"Hmph, men! Who can say for sure?" Xu Qing snorted, his expression telling it all.

"By the way, how was the investigation going?" Xu Qing began to care about his eldest son who ran to the county town to check in the middle of the night.

"It was very quiet at night, and nothing unusual was found, but there were still soldiers guarding the city gate."

"Alas, I don't know what kind of world this is. I really hope it won't get this chaotic."

In this way, when Qinghan and the others go out, they can still find their way home even if they go home.

As they were talking, Gu Qinghan noticed that his mother was in a low mood. He couldn't say anything to comfort her, so he could only keep silent.

"Morning, morning."

A black voice came from outside, flapping its wings, and soon landed on the windowsill.

The sound of the bird broke the gloomy atmosphere in the kitchen. Wuhei lowered his head, and a bunch of purple-black fruits fell on the windowsill.

"Here are some for you to eat, little ones."

After saying that, without waiting for Xu Qing's face to turn red, he flapped his wings and flew away quickly, grabbing a basket with his claws.

"Qinghan, look at what kind of bird you brought home. I don't know when it became so eloquent. It neglects the family all day long. I don't know where it learned to speak when it opens its mouth. It's like a bandit."

Xu Qing muttered to Gu Qinghan, and when he saw the wild fruit on the windowsill, he picked it up and looked at it curiously.

It’s such a small fruit, and I can’t tell what kind of wild fruit it is. Since birds can eat it, it should be okay for humans to eat it too.

"Although the black bird's words are not nice, it has a good heart and can listen to what he says. This wild fruit is really good."

"Mom, does Wuhei often bring wild fruits home?"

The main reason was that Wuhei's actions were so skillful that he even thought about carrying a basket.

"Yes, it used to bring back some insects, but after being scolded, it started to bring back some wild fruits. Isn't it strange? This black one is like a spirit, very smart."

"That's great, I think I've found a treasure." Gu Qinghan curled his lips and rummaged through the firewood in the stove.

When Village Chief Gu and Gu Qingming got up, the porridge had already been served on the table. The sun outside began to rise, and the gray sky gradually faded away.

"Did Wuhei bring this back?" Village Chief Gu asked in surprise when he saw the purple-black fruits appearing on the table.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? How can I go to the mountain to find it so early in the morning?" Xu Qing glanced at Village Chief Gu and replied.

"Mom, did you take medicine so early in the morning?" Gu Qingming looked at his father, then at his mother, and asked puzzledly.

"No, who gave me the gunpowder?" Xu Qing asked with a puzzled look.

"Oh, I thought someone had pissed off my mother." Gu Qingming curled his lips, then picked up a wild fruit and put it in his mouth.
