Chapter 179 Coincidence
Chapter 179 Coincidence
As usual, Gu Mingnan drove Gu Sanmei home after work. He was very happy on this day because the transportation team gave out benefits. It was a box of red bayberries, which weighed ten catties.
Gu Sanmei looked at it and was full of envy: "It's still better for the transportation team, and they can even distribute red bayberries."
When she lowered her head and smelled it, the sweet and sour smell of red bayberry came out through the bamboo basket, which made Gu Sanmei swallow her saliva.
Gu Mingnan said proudly: "That must be, who made your brother me a talent."
"Look at you, not everyone has a transport team." Gu Sanmei didn't open the food, and sat on the back stool with a basket in her hand.
Gu Mingnan stepped on his bicycle: "Who said that there are no temporary workers, only regular employees."
Although they all work in the same place, the treatment of temporary workers and regular workers is very different, which is why everyone looks down on temporary workers.
"This red bayberry looks big enough and black. It must be very sweet. My brother must like it." Gu Sanmei said with a smile,
After a long time, Gu Sanmei and the others can tell that Gu Mingdong usually looks indifferent, but he likes to eat some fresh things. The red bayberry is fresh enough, so he must like it.
As a result, the siblings were so excited that they were dumbfounded on the way.
The bike has lost its chain.
Gu Mingnan struggled for a long time and failed to fix it, Gu Mingxi urged: "Why is it still not fixed, second child, don't you even know how to repair a car? You have been working on a bicycle for so long."
The second brother Gu said helplessly: "This is not a simple drop of the chain, but the chain is directly broken and needs to be replaced."
If it was in the factory, he could repair it by electric welding himself, but now he has no tools at hand.
"I can't help it, let's walk back slowly." We can't wait here.
So Gu Mingnan carried the bicycle, Gu Sanmei carried the red bayberry, and the two walked home together.
Who knew that just halfway there, someone came up behind on a bicycle, and when they saw the posture of the siblings, they laughed: "You two have a car and don't ride, why are you still carrying the bicycle?"
Gu Mingnan saw that he was still an acquaintance: "Don't mention it, the car chain is broken."
Xie Nanshan got out of the car and said with a smile, "May I come and see?"
"It's broken, it can't be repaired without tools." Gu Mingnan explained.
Xie Nanshan laughed: "It's not a coincidence, just wait."
After speaking, he took out something from the big bag at the front of the car, and Gu Mingnan saw it was a half-new car chain.
"Brother Xie, do you still bring a chain with you when you go out?" He asked in surprise.
Xie Nanshan said with a smile: "I can't help it, running around all day is too expensive for a bicycle, not only the chains, but also the tires in my bag, otherwise there is nothing I can do if the car breaks down halfway."
It wasn't just Gu Mingnan who was surprised, Gu Mingxi couldn't help but look at his big baggage, wondering if it might be a treasure chest in the secret passage.
With a new chain, it was easy to handle, and soon the Dajinlu bicycle was able to go again. Gu Mingnan went up and rode it for two laps, no problem at all.
"Great, Brother Xie, how much is this chain?" Gu Mingnan asked.
Xie Nanshan laughed and said, "What relationship do I have with Ah Dong? How can I still ask you for an iron chain?"
Gu Mingnan scratched his hair. He still remembered that his eldest brother mentioned last time that this Xie Nanshan was a "distant relative".
Gu Mingxi said from the side: "Brother will settle accounts clearly, if elder brother knows that we have taken advantage of you, then he has to teach us a lesson."
Xie Nanshan glanced at her, secretly thought that Gu Mingdong's younger sister was a ghost, and said, "Okay, then you can give me one yuan, and it was originally a refurbished old product."
Gu Mingnan hurriedly paid the money, and he didn't want to throw away the original iron chain. He planned to take it to the transport team for repair tomorrow, and when it was repaired, he could leave it as a spare.
After paying the money, Gu Mingnan asked: "Brother Xie, it's all over, where are you going?"
Xie Nanshan slapped his head: "I almost forgot the most important thing, I just happened to find your elder brother."
So Gu Mingdong waited and waited, and after waiting for a long time, he saw his younger brother and sister coming home, and then followed this oil bottle.
Seeing Xie Nanshan with a red face, Gu Mingdong knew that he was completely fine.
The two looked at each other, and did not mention that in a very tacit understanding.
"A Dong, do you mind if I come to have a meal?" Xie Nanshan entered the door with a smile.
Gu Mingdong said lightly: "Excuse me, can I still drive you away?"
"You won't leave even if you drive me away." Xie Nanshan said while taking out the special products he brought over on a special trip, and patted all three children's brains by the way.
As soon as the Gu Mingnan brothers and sisters came in, they whispered, "Brother, we met halfway, brother Xie said to come to you."
Just looking at it, these two people look very familiar, a little different from last time.
Gu Mingdong nodded and glanced at the bicycle: "The car is broken?"
"The chain was broken, brother Xie took it with me and replaced it."
"I told you to stop chatting, come in and eat quickly." Xie Nanshan greeted, and took out a box of chopped braised beef from the big bag.
Beef is a rare thing now. All the cattle in the ten miles and eight townships belong to the public. Unless the cattle are injured and die, it is more difficult to eat a bite of beef than pork.
Xie Nanshan greeted people while placing the beef, and he looked more like a master than Gu Mingdong.
The little ones looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering how well this guy knew the eldest brother.
Gu Mingdong sat down, and Xie Nanshan greeted him to eat beef: "I bought this after a lot of effort, it tastes very good, eat more."
Gu Mingdong took a sip, and it tasted really good.
Xie Nanshan was not too polite, and after a while he finished a bowl of rice, Gu Mingbei was dumbfounded: "Brother Xie, do you want another bowl of rice?"
"Then thank you, Fourth Sister." Xie Nanshan handed her the bowl directly.
"Who is your fourth sister?" Gu Mingdong glanced at him.
Xie Nanshan laughed and said, "Your sister is not my sister, your siblings are like my own."
It was so strange to hear these words, so that the seven members of the Gu family, except for Gu Mingdong who looked as usual, looked at him strangely.
Xie Nanshan didn't know it, and he said with emotion: "Seeing that our family is thriving, I am also happy in my heart, hey, it's time to get a round table, otherwise there will be no room for one table in the future."
Gu Mingnan interrupted and said, "This can be considered."
After Qian Xiaoru came in and had a baby, they could still eat at the same table.
Gu Sanmei stretched out her hand and gave him an elbow, and mouthed, "You're the one who talks a lot."
Gu Mingnan grinned in pain, feeling aggrieved in his heart, secretly thought he didn't say anything.
After eating, the others cleaned up, those who did their homework did their homework, those who washed the red bayberry washed the red bayberry, and gave them the main room to talk in a tacit understanding.
Xie Nanshan chuckled: "Hey, you live a comfortable life, these younger brothers and sisters are so reassuring."
Gu Mingdong went around impatiently: "Have you tried it?"
Before he finished speaking, Xie Nanshan grabbed his hand, his face was full of emotion, and he almost said with snot and tears: "Ah Dong, I really didn't expect the troubles that have entangled our Xie family for several generations, just like this. You solved it."
"Now I eat well, my body is great, I can go wherever I want, and I don't have to worry about sleeping to death silently one day."
"Adong, you are my savior, you saved my life."
Gu Mingdong quickly pulled out his hand, but he held it too tightly: "Let me go quickly, or you will have other troubles."
Feeling his murderous aura, Xie Nanshan let go of his hand embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, I'm so excited."
Gu Mingdong couldn't stand him like that: "Since it's all right, why are you still here?"
Xie Nanshan said: "To be honest, when I first knew I was fine, I wished I could run around the world, but after walking for more than half a year, I was actually tired and tired."
"Then you should go back to Beijing, what are you doing at my house?" Gu Mingdong couldn't understand him anymore.
Xie Nanshan smiled: "Isn't this a place with you, so I feel at ease."
Gu Mingdong didn't believe this, and raised his brows, thinking that Xie Nanshan was probably afraid of some sequelae: "Xiyuan Town is no different from other places for you."
Xie Nanshan said: "How can this be the same, this person has you, who are you, my savior, reborn with kindness, reborn parents, if I am a woman, I should promise myself."
Gu Mingdong's face darkened: "Hurry up and save yourself, I don't want to do this, if you talk like that again, get the hell out of here."
"It's really ruthless." Xie Nanshan touched his nose.
Xie Nanshan added: "There is no one in my family anymore. Now one person is full and the whole family is not hungry, so it is the same everywhere. The place in Beijing is too noisy, and it is not as clean as Xiyuan Town."
Gu Mingdong raised his eyebrows slightly: "So I came to seek refuge."
Xie Nanshan smiled, and the two brothers looked at him well: "Isn't it good for you that I come back, and if you want to get money in the future, I will have a way here, which is convenient and safe, and there is absolutely no worry about it."
These words are much more than the rhetoric above.
Gu Mingdong thought so too, with Xie Nanshan in the town, it is indeed much more convenient for him to do things, but this guy immediately became unreliable.
"Isn't our younger brother getting married? I'll take care of it when the three turns ring." Xie Nanshan said, patting his chest.
Gu Mingdong frowned and refused: "No need."
"How much is it for three turns and one sound? My life is much more expensive than this." Xie Nanshan said.
Gu Mingdong looked at him, and said lightly: "How much money do you have to eat? You don't need to worry about it for nothing. Besides, how do you want me to explain it to the outside world?"
Without waiting for Xie Nanshan to say anything else, Gu Mingdong interrupted him: "Did you meet Qian Zhiyi when you were in Beijing?"
Xie Nanshan inquired about this matter after he came back, and whispered: "Have you found anyone yet?"
Seeing him shaking his head, Xie Nanshan said mysteriously: "You must not have guessed that after the man surnamed Qian returned to Beijing, he took his wife and children to the old house in the suburbs that day."
"I was still in Beijing at the time. Someone knew that I had inquired about the Qian family and told me that day."
"It turned out to be the next day, and guess what?"
Gu Mingdong raised his eyebrows and urged him not to be tricky.
Xie Nanshan suppressed his voice and said, "People never come out after entering the old house."
"Later, I asked someone to go in and look for it, but I didn't find any clues. The two adults and one child disappeared like this. Do you think it's strange?"
"Actually, I suspected that they were still in that old house, but then the higher-ups also started to investigate. I was afraid that there would be too much noise and I would be caught in it, so I left Beijing quickly."
"I don't know what happened after that."
Gu Mingdong's eyes flashed, Qian Zhiyi took the people back to the old house?
Xie Nanshan was able to find out, why did Secretary Wang not get any news, could someone help Qian Zhiyi to cover up the news?
Who will that person be?
Where did Qian Zhiyi take Liu Dani, mother and son?
Gu Mingdong didn't expect it, and now there was no need to travel thousands of miles to Beijing to investigate, so he simply let it go.
It so happened that Gu Sanmei came out with a bowl of red bayberry at this time: "Brother, thank you, eat red bayberry."
Gu Mingdong took it and tasted one, the sweet and sour taste was just right: "Not bad."
Xie Nanshan came uninvited, and took a sip: "It's delicious, you like this, I'll go to their place and come back later."
Gu Mingdong didn't answer his words, and just ate red bayberry by himself.
Xie Nanshan couldn't help sighing: "Hey, you're really not good at anything, it's too hard to please."
"Are you really planning to stay in Xiyuan Town?" Gu Mingdong asked instead.
Xie Nanshan nodded and said, "I think this place is good, suitable for retirement."
Gu Mingdong looked at his appearance, which was not youthful, but definitely had nothing to do with old age, and said lightly, "As you wish."
"Our house is going to rest, you should go back quickly."
"If you don't let me sleep for a night, we can talk at night by candlelight."
"Go quickly."
"It's getting so dark, and I didn't bring a flashlight, so I don't want to fall on the road."
In the end, Xie Nanshan still stayed, there was no other way, his face became thicker after going back and forth, and he just refused to leave.
But he couldn't have a night talk with Gu Mingdong, so he was thrown directly to Gu's second brother's room.
Gu Mingnan looked at him curiously, and couldn't help but ask before going to bed: "Brother Xie, do you have a good relationship with my brother?"
Xie Nanshan said with a smile: "That is inevitable, we are life and death friends."
Gu Mingnan exclaimed: "No wonder my brother can keep you overnight, you are the first outsider to stay overnight at our house."
What he said made Xie Nanshan not even know whether he should be proud or not.
Gu Mingnan asked curiously again: "Brother Xie, how did you meet my brother? I haven't heard him mention it before."
Xie Nanshan pondered: "It's a long story."
"But since you want to know, I'll tell you slowly."
"It was a dark and windy night, your elder brother..."
Gu Mingdong suspected that Xie Nanshan used to be a storyteller in a teahouse, otherwise, how could he make up the climax of the non-existent things, and make the silly second one startled.
Gu Mingdong couldn't bear it anymore, and knocked on the wall: "Sleep or not!"
Only then did Xie Nanshan stop his chatter, but Gu Mingnan, who had listened halfway through, scratched his ears and wanted to continue listening. He didn't sleep well all night.
After breakfast the next day, Gu Mingdong hurriedly sent him away. He really couldn't stand a man who talked so much.
What Gu Mingdong didn't know was that Xie Nanshan rode away with Gu Mingnan's brother and sister. As soon as he left the house, Gu Mingnan couldn't help asking: "And then, then? Brother Xie, you didn't finish talking last night."
Gu Mingxi looked at the two of them suspiciously.
Xie Nanshan chuckled and continued to talk nonsense.
The two of them were joking around while riding their bicycles, but it didn't delay at all.
"Hi, may I ask..."
With a swish, the two bicycles have already blown past like the wind.
After riding for a long time, Gu Mingnan asked belatedly, "Did someone talk just now? Third child, is it you?"
Gu Mingxi rolled his eyes: "Just now there was a man on the side of the road who seemed to want to hitch a ride."
Gu Mingnan didn't take it seriously when he heard it, and turned around to chat with Xie Nanshan again.
When the two sides finally parted at the intersection, Gu Mingxi couldn't help but tugged at the ear of the second child and asked, "Why are you talking so much nonsense with that Xie Nanshan? Can you believe what he said? It's just that he and our elder brother killed demons together." It's crazy."
Gu Mingxi didn't have a good impression of Xie Nanshan. Even though he borrowed a car chain so that they wouldn't have to walk home, she always felt that the man was glib and babbled a lot without telling the truth.
But the second child is like a fool, and he is so happy to hear the obvious nonsense.
Gu Mingnan saved his ears: "I don't believe it either."
"I don't believe you, why are you asking so many questions?" Gu Mingxi was very skeptical.
Gu Mingnan laughed and said, "Brother Xie said it so well, it's like a storyteller, I just want to listen to it more."
Feelings gave Xie Nanshan a free radio. If Xie Nanshan knew his big deception and was listened to as a script, he didn't know what expression he would have.
He didn't know at the moment, and thought that although Gu Mingdong was difficult to get close to, Gu Erer was quite enthusiastic, and he could walk around more in the future to sublimate his relationship.
After all, Gu Mingdong can quietly solve the big troubles that have plagued Xie's family for generations, so he has to cling to this thigh.
Thinking of this, Xie Nanshan walked back humming a song, quite happy in his heart.
He was happy, but Wu Mengting, who was completely ignored, turned black.
Ever since Qian Zhiyi's accident, Wu Mengting was often investigated because of her "childhood sweetheart", and she was not released to work until the busy season came.
This month, Wu Mengting was worried, fearing that Qian Zhiyi would be caught and brought back to her.
Fortunately, the weather in Shanghe Village was calm, except for the occasional gossip, Wu Mengting did not suffer any other persecution, so she was relieved from the bottom of her heart.
When Qian Zhiyi was still there, Wu Mengting had other plans in her heart, but she still had some scruples.
Now that he is gone, Wu Mengting's mind is even more active. She can't stay in Shanghe Village foolishly, waiting for Qian Zhiyi to come back.
Who knows if Qian Zhiyi will come back.
Wu Mengting suspected that Qian Zhiyi had found the thing in her heart, and felt that Qian Zhiyi was so unlucky that something happened to the Qian family was more likely.
But she had already lost contact with her family, and her family connections were all abroad, so they couldn't help her.
Now she dare not return to Beijing, for fear of revealing her identity.
After thinking about it, Wu Mengting decided to find a man with good conditions to marry first, so that she would not have to work hard in the fields and could still retain her good looks.
As for the future?Wu Mengting naturally has other plans.
When she made up her mind, she found that a good man is not so easy to find.
For example, in Shanghe Village, there are many men who love their wives, but there is no one whose family is rich enough not to need their wives to work in the fields.
If she still has to go to work in the fields, then what's the point of her getting married?
Wu Mengting had an ambition in her heart, and set her goal on Xiyuan Town.
Originally, I thought that the second child of the Gu family would be a suitable candidate. After all, the transportation team's salary is high, and he is already a first-class worker.
Wu Mengting's heart was moved for a moment, but when she thought that Gu Mingdong was a king of Hades, Gu's second child had already had a relationship with someone for several years and was about to get married, so she gave up on this idea.
She didn't want to admit in her heart that she was afraid of Gu Mingdong, so she didn't dare to provoke their old Gu family.
Apart from Gu Laoer, Wu Mengting looked down upon the entire production team of Shanghe Village, so she set her sights on the town.
Woke up before dawn today, Wu Mengting was going to the town to "run errands", and originally wanted to hitch a ride, but who knew they never stopped.
Looking again, it wasn't the second and third children of the Gu family. The man next to him looked unfamiliar, but his family's conditions must not be bad if he could ride a bicycle.
Wu Mengting was aggrieved in her heart, but it was a pity that she could only walk to the town on her legs.
Gu Mingdong didn't know Wu Mengting's plan, after eating the red bayberry last night, it really whetted his appetite.
The red bayberry delivered by the transportation team was big and sweet, and the ripeness was just right, and there were a lot of them. However, Lao Gu's family couldn't bear it, so they ate them all in one night.
The next day, Gu Mingdong looked at the bayberry cores in the yard and thought of this one again.
During the day, Gu Mingdong went around the mountain and finally found two bayberry trees at the foot of the mountain.
These two red bayberry trees also bear fruit, and they look pretty good, who knows that after picking them off and tasting them, they almost made their teeth sore.
Gu Mingdong spit it out quickly, feeling very disappointed in his heart.
The more he couldn't eat it, the more he wanted to eat it. After thinking about it, Gu Mingdong simply found a remote place and buried yesterday's bayberry core.
The ability jumped up and down twice vigorously, a proud posture that he was finally able to display his skills.
Soon, a bayberry tree grew rapidly from scratch.
The original small nucleus absorbs the nutrients from the ground, grows from a seedling to a mature seedling, and finally grows into a lush bayberry tree as tall as two people.
The tree is full of bright red bayberry, each one is as many as ping-pong balls, it is better than what I saw last night.
Gu Mingdong went over and picked two of them and tasted them. After biting into them, they were sweet and sour, and it was a completely different world from the wild bayberry just now.
When he couldn't eat it just now, Gu Mingdong only wanted to eat it. Now that the trees are full of bayberry, he doesn't want to eat it so much.
After all, this is the first time he has directly spawned.
Compared with the half-baked guy in his previous life, abilities can be described as a shotgun change.
Gu Mingdong held his chin and looked at the red bayberry tree. Unfortunately, it is still a special period and cannot be aboveboard.
He couldn't help thinking about it, and secretly thought that after a few years, he would contract out the entire mountain, and then he could grow whatever he wanted to eat and live a leisurely life.
After thinking about it, Gu Mingdong still picked a bamboo basket and took it back. After all, it was born with the expense of supernatural powers, so it can't be wasted. As for the rest that can't fit, it can only be cheap to the little guy in the mountain.
Who knew that he had just arrived at the foot of the mountain when he heard someone shouting, "Ah Dong, the captain has passed out, go and have a look."
