Time Travel Article: Tool Man Rejects Plot

Chapter 108 Please don’t praise me

After sending Niu Wazi back to the hospital and Bai Zhonghuai home, Gu Mingyue went to the textile factory.

Bai Yanqing kept his word and not only let her choose freely, but also gave her a large bag of cloth before she left.

They originally said they would send a car to take her back.

Gu Mingyue didn't read much and didn't want to attract criticism, so she refused.

Just ask someone to help carry it to the ox cart where Uncle Gu is parked.

As soon as the ox cart arrived at the village entrance, it was discovered by the villagers who were waiting anxiously.

They all stopped what they were doing and gathered around to ask about the results.

After Gu Mingyue lifted the dust cloth covering the ox cart, people around him exclaimed "Wow".

"Really?"

"Oh, this is the first time I've seen a pile of fabric."

"And cotton?"

Someone asked Gu Mingyue, "Aunt, is this cotton also replaced by the textile factory?"

She took out the cotton from the space, a total of 15 kilograms, and deducted five baskets of dates according to the current market price.

But Gu Mingyue didn't want to take it all in. Cotton was limited, and the purpose of changing it was to mobilize everyone to actively participate in the labor.

She may not be willing to make the same change next time.

As he spoke, he pushed the blame directly to the textile factory. “Well, we exchanged with the people in their factory, but not much.”

"This is not much, it's enough to get through the winter."

Without participating in the discussion, Gu Mingyue handed the things to his fifth brother Gu Mingxin and asked him to record them in the book first.

Then replace them according to your own requirements.

She also agreed with the fifth brother separately that the cloth scraps were gifts and should not be distributed for the time being as she had other arrangements.

Gu Mingyue basically satisfied all the things everyone exchanged this time.

The villagers are very happy. In short, the atmosphere today is like that of the New Year.

During this period, Gu Mingyue told her uncle and elder brother about Bai Fenglai and Niu Wazi's settlement.

The two had no objection, as they had always been concerned about the expansion of the village's population.

It’s just that Gujia Village is located in a remote area, and few people are willing to come here.

Neither my uncle nor the villagers want to merge with other villages.

Now that there are people willing to settle down, they naturally want it more than they can.

So after the eldest brother personally talked to the villagers, no one objected.

I heard that one of them was the daughter of the director of a textile factory, and the cloth that everyone had just received was still warm.

We cannot destroy this relationship and must give a warm welcome.

As for the remaining children, not to mention their miserable life experiences, just think about how much food a few children can eat.

Their village will not compete with children for food.

The key point is that Gujia Village is backed by mountains and close to Wuyun River.

Whether it is picked from the mountains or caught from the rivers, since the founding of the country, there has been no unrest and the world is peaceful...

People in their village have never suffered from hunger.

It is common to have poor food, but it is not common to have not enough to eat in Gujia Village.

Even the lazy Gu Laoliu never went hungry.

Otherwise, with his personality of not even trying to help when an oil bottle falls over, how could he have the energy to jump up and down?

Finally, everyone unanimously decided to clean up the empty house next to the village committee and let a few people live in it.

That place was originally where my great uncle, who was in charge of the ancestral hall, lived. It has been empty since he passed away.

It’s a little shabby, but the materials used in the house are solid and it doesn’t affect its usability.

Gu Mingyue did not forget to remind him, "I have praised Gujia Village to the skies. We can ignore people, but we cannot bully them. If I find anyone gossiping or bitching, she will not get any benefits from the village next time. But I think our village is so harmonious, it shouldn't be like that, right, everyone."

Everyone instantly recalled the previous boasting scene and could no longer sit still. They agreed in unison and quickly dispersed.

Please don't praise!!!

Gu Mingyue secretly winked at Gu Mingwei, making the other party laugh and cry.

Uncle Gu glared at him and said, "You are a mischievous person. You are becoming more and more out of character. Look how scared the villagers are of you."

"Uncle, I'm obviously doing this for their good. Why can't you see my good intentions?" Gu Mingyue cried out in injustice.

"I think it's a sinister intention."

"Oh, who was it? Isn't this our master craftsman?!" Gu Mingyue laughed loudly when she heard what her second brother Gu said.

This made my uncle's family laugh continuously.

Brother Gu bowed his hands repeatedly and said, "I was wrong, stop shouting."

Seeing that he was feeling uncomfortable, Gu Mingyue didn't bother him anymore.

He was walking proudly with the little stone in his arms, when suddenly he came to his senses and weighed it up and down.

He turned around and said to Liu Caixia, "Sister-in-law, do you have a scale at home? Weigh Little Stone tomorrow. I think he's a little heavy."

The eldest sister-in-law looked at Little Stone carefully, pinched his little face, nodded and said, "Yeah, he has grown a lot, and his face is plump."

After saying that, he looked at Mingyue, who also had a rosy complexion, and couldn't help but say with relief, "You took good care of him."

Gu Mingyue smiled and said, "That's what I should do."

The day agreed upon with Niu Wazi soon arrived. Gu Mingyue came to the town early, put on makeup and waited.

Even if Niu Wazi will stay in their village in the future, there are some things she is still not going to make clear.

Be it cautious or careful, there are some things that only you can feel at ease when you know them yourself.

Niu Wazi went to the appointment by himself today, and his eyes lit up when he saw the disguised Gu Mingyue.

It was not because he recognized her, but because he was thinking about the meat buns that were about to be in his hands.

He took the initiative to say hello, "You're here."

Gu Mingyue asked calmly, "How is it going? What did you find out?"

Niu Wazi asked back, "Where are the meat buns?"

Gu Mingyue opened her purse and said, "Here, I just bought it. I always keep my word. It depends on whether your information is useful or not."

Hearing this, Niu Wazi got a little nervous. "I found out that President Wang had an abnormal relationship with a woman, but I'm not sure if she is your sister-in-law. Is this useful or not?"

"Can you tell me what's wrong with it first?"

So Niu Wazi began to tell about his discovery.

"Since we agreed to do so, we went to mingle with the children playing in the commune that afternoon. At night, I would personally guard his door. I followed him for two days but found nothing. It was not until the third night that I noticed movement at the back door of President Wang's house.

I followed him quietly and found that his back door was connected to another back door. At that time, President Wang knocked on the door three times and was then welcomed into the house by a woman. She did not come out of the house until the middle of the night.

Gu Mingyue quickly asked, "Do you know who that woman is?"

Niu Wazi nodded and replied, "I asked around. She said that the director of women's affairs' daughter-in-law is Liu Fang, who works in the commune cafeteria. Her husband is a member of the transport team and often drives a car. After they got married, the family split up. My parents-in-law and my eldest brother's family live in the front yard. Liu Fang lives alone in the back yard now, and she has no children."

At this point, he glanced at Gu Mingyue carefully, "Is this the person you want to investigate?"

Gu Mingyue did not answer, but in her heart she highly admired Niu Wazi's ability. She really did not expect that he could give her such a big surprise. It was hard for him to investigate so carefully.

But she had to keep a cool face and handed him the meat bun. "Okay, I got it. You don't have to worry about what happens next. This is the end of our deal."

Niu Wazi felt a little regretful that this person didn't make it clear whether it was true or not, and he was in a dilemma.

Fortunately, I got the meat buns, they are so delicious. No, I have to hold back and can’t eat them. I have to return them to Sister Mingyue.

Gu Mingyue then remembered something and asked, "When you were following him, did you notice that President Wang went to Liu Fang's place on a fixed date?"

Niu Wazi shook his head, "No, it only happened that once."

Gu Mingyue was in deep thought. The day before yesterday was Saturday. At that time, there was no double day off, only a single day off.

So can we guess that Wang Bichang can't hold back every Saturday?

Today is Tuesday, and there are still four days left. Let's wait and she will come over to check it out in person then.
