Carrying the little lucky star, leading the villain on the road to exile

Chapter 277. Construction Begins
Bai Suihe thought of many sad things, especially the various delicacies and conveniences of the future, which kept her from laughing out loud. Gu Kaichen's expression was really too funny. It was a pity that she couldn't record it. Otherwise, she could take it out and look at it when she was in a bad mood.

Chen Dafu was so frightened that his back went cold. What kind of medicine did Gu Kaichen, this good-for-nothing kid, know?
Along the way, he spent most of his time following behind the Gu family. If Gu Kaichen really knew medicine, Madam Gu would not have died from her wound reopening, and the Gu family maid was only saved when they arrived at the post station with a high fever.

There's also Gu Kaiping's arm wound, and his sister-in-law's skin problems...

He can't even cure such a minor ailment, yet he can cure bone injuries.

“I don’t want him to see it. If he were really capable, his mother wouldn’t have died, and with so many wounds and patients in your family, he wouldn’t be completely helpless.”

After Chen Dafu finished speaking, he looked at Gu Baijiang's face. He had almost forgotten about this face, but even Hua Tuo himself probably couldn't do anything about it.

Gu Kaichen breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that they didn't come to him for help; at least his reputation was preserved.

Gu Baijiang's smile was a little stiff, "Just take a look at the external injuries first..."

"That won't work either. Your son hasn't apprenticed to learn medicine. Who knows if he might worsen my injury?"

Just kidding, you can't even take a look. At this point, there might not even be a red mark on your buttocks.

"This won't work, that won't work," Gu Kaiping took a deep breath and said with a forced smile, "Brothers Chen, you don't need to surround us. We can't run away. Why don't we sit down and talk this over properly?"

“You all come back first. I want to see what he’ll say,” Madam Chen said, and her children and grandchildren reluctantly retreated.

With no one around, the Gu father and son felt they could breathe freely again.

Just then, another long convoy entered the village, its impressive presence drawing everyone's attention.

Seeing so many cars piled up, everyone looked on with envy.

The indigenous people, in particular, who had gradually gathered together, were all envious...

"Village chief, who are these people? Weren't they supposed to be exiled prisoners? How come they're living better than us?"

"Goodness, how much silver will this cost?"

“These people have such a large fortune, yet they still come to compete with us for land. Village chief, how about...?”

Zhu Ziqiang, who was surrounded, was extremely envious. These people were transporting goods to the village by the truckload, and he wondered how much money it would cost.

Especially Gu Kaiyuan, who bought several useless mountains without even blinking an eye; he really has money to burn.

"You've finally arrived," Lin Hua said hurriedly as he ran over. "Follow me."

“This is another gift from the Bai family,” Zhou Gang said, and it would be a lie to say he wasn’t envious. “The Bai family is truly wealthy; they can even be connected to them in this place.”

"That's right. I heard that Madam Bai only has one daughter, so how could she not spoil her a lot?"

……

Seeing that the topic was being steered away, Chen Dafu started groaning again, "Mine is in so much pain I can't stand it, why is my life so miserable?"

The Gu family father and son, "..."

“Gu Baijiang, if you don’t take care of this, I’ll report it to the authorities…” “Let’s talk this over properly,” Gu Baijiang didn’t care about being angry and wanted to resolve the matter first.

"We can call a doctor ourselves, but you'll have to pay for the treatment. Oh, and my husband's injured, so he definitely needs some rest and recuperation..."

“Mrs. Chen, just give me a number,” Gu Kaichen said impatiently, forgetting his current situation.

Gu Baijiang and Gu Kaiping wanted to stop him, but it was too late. They could only cover their heads in regret. How could such a brainless person have been able to stay in the academy all this time?
Little did they know that the academy was a mixed bag, and the teachers wouldn't care as long as they didn't lack tuition fees.

Not to mention that these students all have some connections, so most people turn a blind eye, and even when the parents talk to them, they will say some good things.

"As expected, Lord Gu is truly magnanimous," Madam Chen said, straightening her slightly disheveled clothes and pretending not to have seen the interaction between the father and his two sons.

Everyone knew that Chen Dafu was trying to extort money, but Gu Baijiang was helpless. It seemed that he would have to spend money to avoid trouble again. Nothing was going right for him.

Looking towards the other end of the village, things are bustling with activity, cars are coming and going, and the houses will probably be built in no time.

He regretted it again. He shouldn't have let Xu Huizhen take charge of the family back then. What a mess she made of their family.
Bai Suihe wanted to watch the play some more, but since everyone wanted to settle things privately, standing there would be too conspicuous. So, as everyone left, she returned to the end of the village.

This time, Lin Hua and his group brought a lot of people. Some of the trees in the grove had already been cut down, and some people were digging up tree roots.

Now everything relies entirely on manpower, but people are willing to put in the effort and are not afraid of hardship or fatigue. In just a short time, progress can be seen.

“I had someone set up a shed first,” Gu Kaiyuan said as he ran over to Bai Suihe when he saw her return from her walk. “You should rest for a bit first.”

Seeing the bustling activity here, Bai Suihe wondered, "Are all these people building houses?"

She didn't count, but there were probably twenty or thirty of them.

"They came to build houses and also agreed to help us clear this forest. In ten days at most, we will be able to move into our new houses."

Gu Kaiyuan smiled as he thought about the future that would belong to them.

"So fast?" Bai Suihe thought of the slow and sluggish construction of buildings in later generations. "The foundation needs to be solid, and the quality needs to be up to standard."

"Don't worry," Gu Kaiyuan assured him, "I'll keep an eye on things these days. I'm even thinking of making this our family's ancestral home in the future."

Bai Suihe smiled, her eyes crinkling, "From now on, we will be the ancestors of our branch."

“I guess this is the second one,” Gu Kaiyuan thought of the previous contract. “I’m going to give it to my second uncle now, and then I’ll have to set up his memorial tablet.”

“It’s the same, whether it’s the first generation or the second generation, they are all ancestors,” Bai Suihe hadn’t thought of this before. “In the future, when we offer incense to our second uncle, will the memorial tablet still be placed in the same room?”

"I will build a separate small courtyard specifically for enshrining the memorial tablets."

"Then you decide what to do, but we need to discuss this with Third Grandfather and the others. It's also best to let everyone know about the memorial tablet." Bai Suihe really didn't have any bad intentions. She had to go through the procedures in the village again, since it was such a rare opportunity to break things off with the Gu family.

"I'll have a good talk with my third grandfather when I have time, and then choose an auspicious day," Gu Kaiyuan also had this idea. Otherwise, living in the same village in the future would cause a lot of trouble.

Many things have changed, and he really doesn't know how much longer the Gu family will stay in the village.
