Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“That’s right; we’ll talk about it after someone exposes themselves.” The village chief hesitated for a moment before asking, “What do you think about arranging for them to stay outside the village? To put it bluntly, they’ll only ask for meat and water.”
After the patriarch heard this, he felt conflicted.
If things continued this way, there would be more people coming in one after another, and the village’s safety wouldn’t be guaranteed.
However, when he thought of his daughter and put himself in her shoes, he really couldn’t harden his resolve.
He could only say, “I think we should discuss this matter with the constable.
“Even if we want to place these outsiders out of the village, we have to discuss how to do it and how to manage them. Otherwise, if there’s any trouble, I’m afraid we won’t be able to keep our heads.”
“That’s true. Let’s go find the constable and see what he has to say.” The village chief spoke after thinking for a moment.
“Alright, let’s go then.” The patriarch got up and went with the village chief to find Constable Tian.
Early the following day, Zhou Ying and her husband had just finished their breakfast when Guo Chengsong finally woke up. Gu Chengrui quickly went forward to help him up and asked, “How do you feel now?”
“It’s cold, and I need the toilet.” Guo Chengsong spoke in a low voice with a red face.
“I’ll help you there.” Gu Chengrui helped him to the toilet.
When they returned from the toilet, Gu Chentrui gave him half a bowl of millet porridge in the pot and said, “You should have a bite first, as you won’t feel too cold after eating.”
“Thank you,” Gu Chengsong thanked Gu Chengrui and picked up the bowl to start eating. He finished it in one sitting after making sure it wasn’t too hot.
In the end, even though he had finished the porridge, he wasn’t full.
However, he also knew that Gu Chengrui had done his best to give him half a bowl of porridge, especially in the current year. He simply did not have the shamelessness to ask for more.
“How’s Chunhong?” He asked. “She didn’t come to seek medical help, did she?”
“No, but I heard that she’s giving birth. I don’t know if she’s done or not.” Gu Chengrui said.
“What? But it has only been eight months…” Guo Chengsong put down his bowl and said, “No, I have to go back and take a look.”
“If you go back now, what else can you do other than cause trouble? It’s better for you to get well as soon as possible. When you’re better, you can go wherever you want.
“Besides, there’s still Auntie Hua at home. When Chunhong finishes giving birth, she’ll definitely come to inform us.” Gu Chengrui quickly stopped him.
Guo Chengsong still wanted to go home after hearing this, but without Gu Chengrui’s support, he could not even walk. His view was fading, and he could faint at any time.
He knew it was due to the lack of blood, so he didn’t move again and sat down obediently.
“You can’t sit for too long in your current state. You should lie down.” Gu Chengrui advised him and helped him lie down. Then, he grabbed a packet of medicine and went to the kitchen to boil it.
After a while, Widow Hua came over with a basket.
Sitting under the firewood shed and drying beans, Zhou Ying saw this and greeted her. “Auntie, you’re here. Brother Guo is already awake.”
“That’s reassuring to hear. I’ll go and take a look.” Widow Hua immediately rushed into the house when she heard that.
When he saw that Guo Chengsong had woken up, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Chengsong, you’re finally awake. You really scared me to death yesterday.”
“I’m sorry for making you worry. I heard that Chunhong is giving birth. How is she now? Has she given birth?” Guo Chengsong saw her come in and asked hurriedly, turning sideways to get out of bed.
But halfway through, he pulled on his wound, and the pain made him break out in a cold sweat.
Widow Hua immediately put down her basket and helped him to his feet. “She did, but it’s a girl.”
At this point, she looked at him nervously, afraid that he would dislike her granddaughter..
