Professor Gu's daily life in the countryside after his rebirth

Chapter 137 Apology

"Mom, you've been tired all day, eat with Xiaoxi first."

Huang Guihua smiled lovingly and said, "I ate something when I came back this morning. You two should hurry up and eat. There's more in the kitchen."

It is not difficult to see the fatigue on Huang Guihua's face. She was worried all day yesterday and had to worry about her children at night. She didn't sleep at all. Today she was running back and forth again.

Gu Zhan couldn't bear to see an old man in his fifties helping him cook, so he insisted that Huang Guihua and Liu Xiaoxi eat first.

Huang Guihua couldn't refuse, so she had to eat with her daughter first.

Gu Zhan went to the kitchen and served himself some noodles.

After dinner, Huang Guihua saw that Gu Zhan and Liu Xiaoxi were already able to take care of the child, so she packed up and went home: "I'll come over tomorrow morning. Don't talk too much tonight, and pay attention to the child..."

Huang Guihua explained one by one the precautions that had been explained before, and finally looked around the house carefully. Only after seeing that there was nothing wrong did she turn around and leave.

After Huang Guihua left, the main room returned to silence. Liu Xiaoxi's eyelids gradually became heavy, and when he regained consciousness, it was already dark.

Under the dim kerosene lamp, the only sound could be heard: the rustling sound of Gu Zhan's pen tip rubbing against the paper.

"Don't you want to take a break?" Liu Xiaoxi asked Gu Zhan.

Gu Guzhan stopped what he was doing, stood up and stretched his waist, then walked over to Liu Xiaoxi and asked softly, "Are you hungry? There's millet porridge in the pot."

When Huang Guihua left, she cooked some millet porridge and kept it warm in the pot for Liu Xiaoxi to drink when she was hungry.

Liu Xiaoxi shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry. Go to the kang and rest for a while."

"it is good."

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Zhou Yunyun, He Miao and others came with eggs to apologize.

After all, it was their harsh words that caused Liu Xiaoxi to fall.

Gu Zhan did not hold them accountable, so they were thankful. After hearing that Liu Xiaoxi and her daughter had returned home safely, they quickly discussed and took some things to apologize.

Zhou Yunyun's family was well-off, so she received twenty eggs, which was considered a generous gift in that era. He Miao and the others each received about ten eggs.

Huang Guihua already knew the whole story, and now that someone came to apologize with gifts, she felt a lot better.

"Auntie, is Xiaoxi okay?"

"It's fine. Thank you for your trouble."

After they exchanged glances, Zhou Yunyun spoke first, "Aunt, we really felt sorry for Xiaoxi. If I hadn't insisted on competing with Zhao Hongmei, Xiaoxi wouldn't have fallen. Luckily, Xiaoxi was lucky enough not to be seriously injured. Otherwise, we would have felt so guilty."

"It's okay, don't think too much about it."

Zhou Yunyun knew that Huang Guihua was just saying polite words. After all, Liu Xiaoxi had really fallen down. As long as the other party accepted their kindness, it would be considered as accepting their apology.

"Auntie, you still have to take care of Xiaoxi, so we won't bother you anymore. We'll come back when Xiaoxi is out of confinement."

"Hey, good!"

There is only a main hall in my daughter's house and no other rooms. It is indeed not suitable to entertain guests at this time.

Huang Guihua sent a few people away and went into the house to tell Liu Xiaoxi what had happened.

Thinking about what happened that day, Liu Xiaoxi was also scared. Fortunately, the child was fine. If something bad had happened, she would have regretted it.

"Next time you see Zhao Dani and Zhao Hongmei, hide away. Do you hear me?"

Huang Guihua angrily reprimanded her naive daughter.

"Okay, Mom, I understand. What happened that day was truly an accident. No one expected it."

"Well, now that you have a child, you must put the child first in everything."

After saying this, Huang Guihua carefully glanced out the window. Seeing that no one was there, she whispered to her daughter, "Is your son-in-law not angry that you gave birth to a girl?"

Liu Xiaoxi said with amusement, "Mom, don't let your imagination run wild. Your son-in-law loves his daughter dearly and can't let her go every day."

"That's good, that's good. I was worried that my son-in-law would be unhappy."

"Nothing, Mom!"

Gu Zhan didn't go to the cattle farm these two days. Zhao Baogen knew that Gu Zhan was busy, so he didn't send anyone to call him.

As a result, without Gu Zhan's guidance, the progress at the cattle farm was much slower.

Huang Guihua was at home at the moment, so Gu Zhan came over to check on the situation at the cattle farm.

As soon as Gu Zhan entered the venue, Zhao Baogen came to greet him: "Hey kid, come over now that you've settled down at home?"

Gu Zhan smiled and thanked Zhao Baogen: "Thank you, Uncle Zhao, and Auntie, for your help. Everything is settled now."

"Well, just settle down."

Zhao Baogen thought for a moment and continued, "I've already criticized the women involved in what happened that day. They'll go to your house and apologize to your wife on a later date. As for your grandmother, try to stay away from her. You know who she is."

Gu Zhan also understood what Zhao Baogen meant by this, which was that he couldn't do anything about Zhao Dani's thoughts, there was really no way.

His eyes grew colder beneath his thick eyelashes, then returned to normal. Gu Zhan said softly, "It's okay, Uncle Zhao. It's all over."

"Hey, good!"

The two were talking when Zhou Jiawang called out from a distance, "Gu kid, come over and help take a look!"

"Okay!" Gu Zhan responded and walked over with Zhao Baogen.

"Uncle Zhou, what's wrong?"

"Look, can we completely block out the rain by sealing the roof like this?"

After standing outside and taking a look, Gu Zhan walked into the bullpen to check the angle. After coming out, he said, "Uncle Zhou, there's nothing wrong with this angle."

"Oh, that's good!"

In fact, when Gu Zhan first designed the cowshed, he preferred a standardized one. However, due to the scarcity of materials, he had to redesign it according to the existing conditions. After ensuring the conditions of sturdiness, ventilation, and lighting, he built it in the traditional way.

This method not only avoids the difficulty of obtaining materials, but also saves a lot of money.

With Gu Zhan's on-site guidance, the first cowshed with the fastest construction progress was completed with the mud and roof covered that afternoon thanks to the efforts of all the members of the production team.

In the following days, even though Gu Zhan was not on site, the subsequent construction progress of the cattle farm was not affected in the slightest.
