1960s: The crazy life after the alchemy furnace became a spirit

Chapter 36 Gu Qingyan also wants to run away
"Okay, I get it."

Gu Weihong waved impatiently and went out. Gu Qingyan watched her father leave and went back to work.

The clothes at home have not been washed, and the weeds in the vegetable garden have not been pulled out. The family now depends on the small harvest from the vegetable garden, so she dare not let her guard down.

When she thought about the fact that her family was now penniless, and that her grandparents' house had nothing but money, tickets and food, everything else was still there, but their family's money, tickets and various other things were all gone, Gu Qingyan felt a little regretful that she had not brought her actions to school.

If I leave it at home, all my clothes and other things will be gone.

Gu Qingyan became more and more angry the more she thought about it, so she went to wash clothes. When she arrived at the river, she looked at the shallow layer of water by the river and showed a worried look. They had a well on their side, so if it didn't rain, they could carry water to irrigate the fields. However, with so much land, it would be impossible to protect all of it even if they worked themselves to death.

If the harvest fails again, what will they do next year?
She had been accustomed to eating refined grains, and had recently been eating sweet potatoes and potatoes. She felt sick when she saw those two things, but unfortunately, there was nothing else to eat except these two things in her house, and even with these two things, she couldn't feel full.

"Gu Qingwu, why are you running?"

Gu Qingyan cursed Gu Qingwu again. Gu Qingwu didn't know this. Gu Qingyan cursed Gu Qingwu while washing clothes.

……

"Wei Hong, our family doesn't have a penny right now. The money for our eldest son's schooling and food were all borrowed. Even if we get relief food this time, our family still has no money. What are we going to do in the future?"

After Xu Taohua saw her husband coming back in high spirits, she didn't want to tell him about this matter at first, because she had been missing for several days and her husband was so angry when he saw her now. She also knew that she was in the wrong. Even if she said that no one had taken advantage of her, her husband would not believe her. In desperation, she could only stay at home and be humble.

Now, while her man was happy, she quickly told him about the difficulties at home.

"I have found out Qin Haonan's address these days. I will write a letter to that damn girl tomorrow."

Gu Weihong had come back humming a little tune, but when he heard what his wife said, his face drooped and he gritted his teeth and said, "Gu Qingwu, that little bitch, if she wants to live a good life, it depends on whether they agree."

Humph, leave them alone, dream on. The family has lost everything and is extremely poor now. He will never let her go.

"What if she doesn't reply to our letter and ignores us?"

Xu Taohua asked worriedly, if that was the case, they couldn't take the train to cause trouble for that little bitch, it was such a long distance.

"If they ignore us, we will write a letter to Qin Haonan's leader."

Gu Weihong said coldly, Haha, do you really think that the little bitch can escape from their clutches just because the second one is gone? You’re dreaming.

"Look, our girl is not young anymore, it's time for her to find a husband."

Xu Taohua decided not to continue this topic, she said after a moment of hesitation.

If I can't rely on that little bitch Gu Qingwu, I can only look for my own girl.

Although she would not find an old widower who liked to beat people for her girl, she would still ask for more dowry.

"Look slowly."

Gu Weihong thought that her daughter had been in junior high school for more than a year. When the time came, she would get a diploma, which would mean she had graduated from junior high school. In this way, she could ask for more dowry. In the surrounding villages, there were not many people who were willing to let their daughters go to junior high school.

"Row."

Xu Taohua decided to slowly inquire about it. As for her man's trouble with Gu Qingwu, that little bitch, she fully supported it. Humph, don't even think about escaping.

Gu Qingyan didn't expect that when she came back with the washed clothes and was about to hang them up, she would hear the conversation between her parents. When she thought that she would also be sold, Gu Qingyan thought of Gu Qingwu. Didn't Gu Qingwu run away? Could she also run to Gu Qingwu and ask Gu Qingwu to help her find a man with a good future?

As for the in-laws her mother had found for her, she didn't dare to imagine what they would be like.

But she had no money, so she had to write a letter to Gu Qingwu. Her father knew the address, so she would try to secretly look at it and write it down. If that didn't work, she would go to the team leader. If the team leader could help Gu Qingwu, he would definitely be able to help her.

Gu Qingwu didn't know what Gu Qingyan was planning. If she knew, she would definitely laugh at her. The captain helped her at the beginning only because of the original owner's father. The captain would not help Gu Qingyan. Gu Qingyan was a heartless person. No matter who helped her, she would not be grateful, and would even be jealous that the other person was living a better life than her.

Gu Qingwu knew this when she came into this world.

……

"Everyone, hurry up and buy grain. New grain has arrived at the grain station. Everyone, take your grain books and banknotes and go to the grain station quickly."

On this day, such a loud shout was suddenly heard from the family compound. The people in the compound stopped sitting outside and chatting. When they heard that grain had arrived from the grain station, they got up and ran home to get the grain book, tickets and bags, as every household was running away from food.

"Qingqing, come out quickly."

Gu Qingwu originally thought about going there later when there were fewer people around, but who would have thought that Chen Hongxia's voice would be heard at the door.

"Here I come, sister-in-law."

Gu Qingwu has been busy with Qin Haonan for several days. The house has been cleaned up and the plastic sheet has been brought back by Qin Haonan. Gu Qingwu found a way to build a greenhouse. It is called a greenhouse, but it is not very big. But even so, it took Qin Haonan a lot of thought. After all, plastic sheet is still a rare thing in this era, and Qin Haonan took a lot of effort to get it back.

"Hurry up, we don't know how many people will be here later."

Chen Hongxia looked at Gu Qingwu's slow pace and urged him.

"I see."

Seeing Chen Hongxia's anxious look, Gu Qingwu also quickened her pace, but Chen Hongxia still disliked her for being slow. So, Chen Hongxia stepped forward, grabbed Gu Qingwu and ran towards the grain station.

Gu Qingwu was a little dazed by Chen Hongxia's action, but she still followed subconsciously.

When the two arrived at the grain station, they found that it was surrounded by people and was very noisy.

"Sister-in-law, why don't we come back later?"

There should be a lot of food this time, so there is no need to worry about not having enough food. Why are you so anxious?

"What are you waiting for? It's too late. Who knows if there is still fine grain?"

Chen Hongxia said with disdain, this girl, she just can't bear the slightest hardship. However, she only said it with disdain, she didn't really disdain Gu Qingwu in her heart.

Gu Qingwu shrugged her shoulders, glanced at the person in front of her, and sighed softly.
