Chapter 55 Gossip
After finally getting out of the car and breathing in the fresh air, Ruan Yuxi felt alive.

"How do you feel? Do you want to take a break?" Gu Bei's eyes were full of worry, and he helped her to sit under a nearby tree. "Let's sit for a while. I'll buy a drink to quench my thirst."

There is a small shop next to the station, and it takes less than 5 minutes for Gu Bei to go back and forth.

"Drink it quickly, it's still cold." Gu Bei bought only one bottle and handed it to Ruan Yuxi.

Ruan Yuxi took it and took a sip. It was so comfortable. On such a hot day, you should have a glass of ice-cold drink.

"Why don't you buy an extra bottle?"

"I'm not thirsty." Gu Bei wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although this soda is not very expensive, it costs fifteen cents a bottle, which is quite expensive for people nowadays.

Ruan Yuxi took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it to him, "Go buy another bottle, and buy two popsicles by the way."

She's been here for so long, and she hasn't eaten these two things yet, so she feels like she's missed hundreds of millions.

Gu Bei frowned, she had just recovered from illness, so it might not be right to eat so many cold things, but her eyes were shining brightly, so he couldn't say no to it, obediently bought a bottle of soda and two popsicles.

Ruan Yuxi only took one of the popsicles, and let him handle the rest.

Gu Bei: "Yuxi..."

"Let's go back, let's go, or it will get hotter soon." Facing Gu Bei's scorching gaze, Ruan Yuxi's face was a little hot, and she looked away to change the subject.

"Okay." Gu Bei remembered her kindness and vowed to treat her better in the future.

The two stopped and went, and finally returned to the entrance of the village.

Under the big tree at the entrance of the village, many villagers were enjoying the shade there, and many of them were still holding cattail fans and shaking them, and patted their legs and hands from time to time to drive away mosquitoes.

Some sharp-eyed people gave a strange 'hey' sound when they saw them.

"Isn't this the fourth child of the Gu family and his new wife?"

"My darling, I heard that the fourth child of the Gu family woke up before, but I still didn't believe it. Only when I see it will I feel it's true."

"Isn't it? If you want me to say that Xiaobei can wake up, it's thanks to his new wife. If she didn't insist, maybe this would have turned into a handful of dirt."

"Old Gu's family is really a sinner. If he had been sent to the hospital earlier, he might have woken up earlier. There is no need to suffer such a big crime."

Everyone said something to each other, and when Ruan Yuxi and Gu Bei came, everyone had already gathered around.

When they saw Ruan Yuxi's hand, everyone's expressions changed again. It seemed that Gu's mother was not talking nonsense when she came back. The couple offended someone outside, so they couldn't stay outside, so they came back to the village.

"Xiaobei, are you alright?"

Gu Bei was a little unaccustomed to being surrounded by everyone, especially worried that everyone would touch his daughter-in-law's hand, carrying the bag in one hand and protecting her with the other, he said with a cold expression, "Okay."

"Okay, that's good. Didn't you say that you need to continue to see your illness? Why come back at this time?"

Everyone was curiously waiting for his answer, their eyes sparkled, and the word gossip was clearly written on their faces.

Ruan Yuxi rolled her eyes, and quickly figured out that it must be Gu's mother and Gu's second sister-in-law who came back and said something, otherwise everyone wouldn't have reacted like this.

"Hello, everyone, have you harvested the rice at home, and have the seedlings been planted?"

"Hey, the rice has already been harvested and put in the attic for storage, and the seedlings have just been planted for two days. I'm not going to rest for two days, and start to plant peanuts, grow corn, and grow various soybeans. There's a lot, it's not as busy as you, you don't need to do anything, the family has done it for you."

"That's right, the old Gu's family planted the ground yesterday, and it's just in time for you to come back."

This is a bit of a weird word.

Ruan Yuxi smiled and said, "That's right, my mother and the others know that we are not just playing around outside, so they are considerate of us, so they planted the land for us, otherwise Gu Bei and I will be really worried."

"That's right, Xiaobei can't do much like this, but why are you injured, fourth daughter-in-law?"

"I heard that you are doing self-employed business outside. Is it true that you offended people?"

"Let me say that you should come back to farm honestly. Self-employed work is not something we can do. It is not only embarrassing, but also dangerous. Be careful if you are arrested one day, it will be troublesome."

Everyone kept talking to each other, stopped Ruan Yuxi and the others, refused to let them go, and kept asking questions.

Gu Bei's face slowly turned cold, and just as he was about to speak, Ruan Yuxi tugged at the hem of his clothes and said to everyone with a smile.

"We don't want to be self-employed either, but if there is a way, we won't go this way, but what is the way, you can guess, Gu Bei's illness cost a lot of money, and we have to continue to follow up in the later period, those medicines , it’s too expensive, but what can we do? Eat it no matter how expensive it is, otherwise how can we get healthy?”

"Not counting the future, but now we have already owed almost 1 yuan in foreign debts. I have borrowed from everyone I know around me. Everyone is scared when they see me now."

"I owe so much money?" Everyone opened their mouths in fright, my dear, let alone ten thousand, even one thousand, they didn't dare to think about it, this girl from the capital is really courageous, and she is not afraid that she will not be able to make it. Come and trouble her.

"Yeah, even if this is the case, we don't regret it. Money is spent and people are well. Money is dead, but people are alive. Don't you think so? The big deal is that we have worked hard for several years. As long as everyone is healthy Good." Ruan Yuxi said earnestly.

For a while, everyone looked at her with complicated eyes.

I don't know whether to say that it's unlucky for the Gu family to marry her, and they owe a whole lot of debt within a few months of their marriage, or that the fourth child of the Gu family is lucky, and this new wife dares to do anything for him.

"Fourth brother, fourth brother and sister, why are you back?" The second sister-in-law thought she had misread it. After lunch, she appeared here on time to listen to the gossip. When she saw a group of people from a distance, she thought there was something good about gossip. Unexpectedly, the gossip center turned out to be his own.

"Second sister-in-law." Ruan Yuxi called out, but didn't say anything else.

Gu Bei only nodded his head as a greeting.

The second sister-in-law Gu was wondering what the fourth brother and his wife were going to do when they came back, so they could only squeeze people out of the way and take them home.

"Mother, mother, look who's back." Before reaching home, the voice of Mrs. Gu's second came back first.

After a while, all the people in the room ran out, thinking it was someone, but when they saw clearly that it was Gu Bei and the others, they had weird expressions on their faces.

When she saw a group of villagers following them, Mother Gu squeezed out a smile and stepped forward kindly, "I didn't say anything when I came back today, so that your father and the others can borrow a car to bring you back."

"Mother, we made a temporary decision to come back, thinking that the land at home has not yet planted crops, and we are in a hurry to come back. Unexpectedly, when we arrived in the village, we heard everyone say that our parents have planted them for us. Father, mother, thank you for your hard work." Already." Ruan Yuxi said with a smile.

Gu's mother almost couldn't catch her breath, what do you mean everyone helped them plant it?
