Chapter 31 Repairing The House (4)

The family clan leader nodded and said, Its not like the workshop is short of a person for a day or two. We cant let the Qian clan take care of our Gu clans people. Isnt this a slap in the face of our Gu clan?

Besides, I heard that Gu Chengrui has medical skills. In the future, if we are sick and urgently need medical attention, we might need to look for him. Dont ruin our relations.h.i.+p.

We didnt do anything when they were separated from their family. Even if we do something now, they might not be grateful for our help. The patriarchs wife, Mrs. w.a.n.g, spoke at this time.

Thats right. If we had helped them before this, that would have been the help that they so desperately needed. Helping them now would only be like adding flowers to a bouquet. Gu Chengen agreed.

The main thing was that he could not stand Gu Chengruis indifferent att.i.tude, as if he owed him a hundred taels of silver.

Its better to add flowers to a bouquet than to watch and not care. The clan leader said unhappily, then paused for a moment, By the way, dont we still have some wood in our house? Although it cant be used as a beam, its not a problem to use it as rafters.

We also have some sorghum stalk. Although its not much, its a kind gesture.

Okay. Gu Chengen responded unwillingly. After eating, he took his younger brother, Gu Chengsi, and got busy.

The patriarch stood up and said to Mrs. w.a.n.g, Bring some dishes over later and see if theres anything you need help with.

After he finished speaking, he went out and took some sorghum stalks from the storage room, then used them to make a broom and a curtain.

Although these things were not valuable, they were essential in life.

Mrs. w.a.n.g came out and saw how busy he was. She sighed, picked up the basket, and went to the cellar behind them. She took out more than ten long radishes, a big melon, two small pumpkins, and some dried vegetables.

She placed them on an ox cart that Gu Chengen and his brother had packed and said, Lets go. Lets go together and see if theres anything else we can help with.

Then mother, do get in the cart. Gu Chengen nodded and said.

Its a good day today. Lets walk. After Mrs. w.a.n.g finished speaking, she walked out.

Seeing this, the two brothers had no choice but to follow as they drove the cart.

When they arrived, everyone had just started to get busy.

Gu Chengrui was stunned when he saw them bringing something over. He quickly stood up and greeted them, Aunt, brother Chengen, brother Chengsi, youve come.

Zhou Ying also stood up and greeted everyone.

Your uncle heard you bought a house and wanted to renovate it. He was afraid there wouldnt be enough materials, so he sent some over. Mrs. w.a.n.g said with a smile.

Do give him my thanks. We really do lack wood at the moment, so dont mind if I do. Gu Chengrui hesitated for a moment before accepting it.

Because regardless of whether the other party wanted to save their dignity or had ulterior motives, he had no reason to refuse at the moment. Otherwise, they would definitely be on bad terms.

However, as far as he knew, the clan leader was a good person. Otherwise, he would not have given the 100 acres of land and the oil mills dividends to the Gu family.

Therefore, he decided to try to be on good terms with them. He immediately walked toward the ox cart with enthusiasm.

On the other hand, Gu Chengen and his brother looked at Gu Chengrui, who had changed from his usual enigmatic tone to a warm and welcoming one. They looked at each other and greeted each other happily. The three of them then started to unload the cart.

On the other side, Zhou Ying invited Mrs. w.a.n.g to sit and said, Auntie, please sit down. Let me pour you a bowl of water.

Dont worry about it. I came over after drinking enough water at home. Lets hurry up and make a mat so you can move in earlier. After Mrs. w.a.n.g finished speaking, she took over Gu Chengruis position and busied herself with weaving the mat.
