Chapter 260 What about you?
"Gu Zhan, where have you been?"
Why are you running downhill now that we've already come up here?
“You’re right, my injuries haven’t healed yet, and I shouldn’t have run around like that. So I’ll listen to you and go back to heal now.”
Hearing this, Lin Cai felt terrible. He had already come up here, and now he was going to go down without doing anything. What was the point of him coming up here?
Seeing that he was really about to leave, Lin Cai quickly called out to him, "Gu Zhan, you stop right there, you're not allowed to leave."
"What's wrong? Is there anything else you need?"
"Don't you know whether I'm okay or not? I think you're doing this on purpose, aren't you? You're deliberately trying to see me panic, aren't you?"
Gu Zhan stopped and turned around, but he stood there without moving. Lin Cai looked at him with some displeasure: "I got some food on the mountain, but I can't carry it back by myself."
He stepped forward and looked at the basket of potatoes on his back: "Then why didn't you want me to come up here just now?"
"I'm just worried about you being injured and don't want your wound to reopen. If it were my third brother, do you think I would order him around!"
Lin Cai and Gu Zhan delivered the last basket of potatoes to the village chief's house. Lin Cai told the village chief, "I found these things in the mountains, but I don't want anyone else to know."
"So please, village chief, find a suitable reason to distribute this to them. This thing may not look very big, but just one piece will definitely last a day."
The potatoes she bought were all about the size of a fist, and some were even larger than a fist.
So if you eat one a day and don't do much exercise, you won't get hungry so quickly if you get diarrhea, and you'll eat less each day.
Upon hearing this, the village chief's eyes lit up when he saw the potatoes in the basket. He looked at Lin Cai with delight.
"Lin girl, what are all these things? Where did they come from? How many are there?"
"These things are called potatoes, and they all come from the mountain. However, we only dug out this small amount from that pile; there probably aren't any more elsewhere."
"When I was taken away by bandits before, I saw that someone had eaten in that bandit's den, so when I went out today to try my luck, I saw it and dug it up and brought it back."
Hearing this, the village chief was somewhat disappointed, but he was still very happy. At least with this basket of potatoes, the villagers of Gujia Village would be able to have a full meal or two.
On the way back, Gu Zhan, who was walking behind, looked at the girl in front of him. Lin Cai couldn't help but stop because he kept staring at her back.
"If there's anything you want to know, just ask. Can you please stop staring at me like that?"
"Why don't you want them to know that you dug it up? If they knew, they would definitely be grateful to you!"
"Why should I tell them? I don't want their gratitude, and it doesn't matter to me whether they are grateful to me or not."
"I just don't want any trouble, I don't want to jump into trouble myself."
If she tells them that the potatoes were dug up from the mountain, they say that no matter how scared they are, they will go up the mountain together.
If she tells them that she dug all those potatoes on the mountain by herself, wouldn't that be the same as telling them?
The mountain is safe now, there is no danger at all. Lin Cai can go there by herself, so why can't those grown men go?
Because of this, the entire Gu family village will definitely be in an uproar, since the whole thing started because of her.
She would definitely need to deal with the troubles that followed, but that's exactly what she hated most. Rather than having to deal with the troubles herself, she preferred to nip them in the bud from the start.
After Lin Cai finished speaking, they arrived at the Gu family's door. Lin Cai invited him to come in and sit for a while, but Gu Zhan shook his head.
Before leaving, he told Lin Cai that if she ran out of food at home, she could come to him, and he would make sure she didn't go hungry.
On the other side, Lin Bao was shocked to find that the person who was lying in his house had run away!
"Why did he just run away like that? He seemed so eager to go. I wonder which girl he was going to meet."
"No, I have to keep an eye on him. Once he comes back, I absolutely cannot let him in. This kind of big scoundrel has already harmed others, so he can't be allowed to harm his sister as well."
But the scourge he spoke of arrived at the door just as he was leaving. Before he could even knock, the door was opened from the inside.
The people inside and outside were slightly taken aback when they saw each other. Then the person inside asked, "The snow is so heavy outside, and your injuries haven't healed yet. Where did you go all by yourself?"
"Do you know how worried my younger sister was about you, coming to apply medicine to you every day?"
"You said you ran off without saying a word, did you go to see some girl?"
Gu Zhan said two words: "No." Then he pushed him aside and walked into the courtyard.
He returned to his room and saw Lin Long sitting inside as soon as he entered.
As they looked at each other, they were also sizing each other up. Gu Zhan walked over and sat down: "Brother Lin, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Young Master Gu, you seem to be older than me, don't you?"
“You are Cai’er’s older brother, so logically I should call you older brother.”
"Young Master Gu, you're too kind. Although what you said is correct, isn't it a bit premature for you to call me 'elder brother'?"
"Isn't it a bit too early? What did I tell you before? I told you not to mess with my sister, but you still did it anyway. Now that my brother is back, he definitely won't let you have your way."
At this moment, Lin Long wished he could throw his silly younger brother out.
Does he even know how to speak?
If you can't speak properly, can you please just shut up?
Listen to this, listen to this, what the hell is he talking about?
In front of both parties, he said that this person doesn't like that person. Does he think he can ignore who is transparent to him?
Lin Bao was completely unaware that there was anything wrong with what he was saying, and continued talking even after he had finished.
Lin Long, unable to bear it any longer, kicked him: "Lin Bao, have you already swept all the snow out of the yard?"
Have you cleared all the snow off the roof?
"I'm telling you, hurry up and get it done, or the roof will collapse and your mother will skin you alive."
Lin Bao, who was about to continue speaking, trembled upon hearing this, and looked at Lin Long: "Even the second brother didn't go, so why should I go alone?"
"The second brother went to town, so you won't be the only one shoveling snow today."
"how about you?"
