Chapter 243 Don't act like you're stealing someone's chicken
The next day, Goudan's parents brought a goose to thank Shen Qiu, Gu Jiandong, Shen Shuyu and Bai Luobo.
"Aunt, you must accept it. If it weren't for these children, my dog might have fallen in and no one would have found it."
When Goudan spoke without trembling, his parents asked him what happened and why he fell into the river out of nowhere.
It turned out that the child heard that his sister wanted to eat fish, so he ran to the river while playing with his friends. He happened to see a hole that had been dug by someone. He ran over and a fish popped out. It was quite big.
The child would not think so much. He just wanted to catch the fish when he saw it. He squatted down, reached down to scoop it, but his foot slipped and his head fell into the water.
If it weren't for Xiaoqiu and the other kids, in the middle of winter, there would be basically no one outside, and if no one found her Goudan, then it would really be... Goudan's mother is scared just thinking about it.
In the countryside, giving a goose is a very important gift. Every household raises geese, but basically they are reluctant to kill them. Most people only think of killing the geese for food during the Chinese New Year or when there are distinguished guests at home.
Old Lady Shen pushed Goudan's mother's hand and said, "Take it back, take it back, save it for your Goudan. Goudan has been in the river for so long, he needs to be well nourished. How can we accept this goose? We are from the same village, and anyone who sees the child will save him."
Goudan's father said, "Aunt, if you don't accept it, we won't be able to sleep at night.
The children saved my dog's life, which is a favor that no amount of geese can repay."
His family is living in poverty, and the only thing he can afford is this big goose.
Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Mrs. Shen had to accept it.
When Goudan’s parents saw that Old Lady Shen accepted it, they felt relieved.
Goudan's mother squatted down and looked at the white radish as if it were her own child, and even gave it a big red flower.
"White Radish, I want to thank you. Thanks to you for saving my white radish. This is the meal I made for you. Please eat."
Goudan's mother was sincerely grateful to Bailuo, so she made sweet potato porridge, which was quite thick and had a small piece of meat in it.
White Radish declined a few times in a dog-like manner, then walked around in front of the whole family with a big red flower on his face and a grin on his face, before he began to eat the sweet potato porridge in big mouthfuls.
Goudan's mother held the hands of Shen Shuyu and Shen Qiu, and kept thanking the two sisters.
Of course, Gu Jiandong was not left behind. The boy jumped down and rescued their dog, Goudan. In such a cold day, he did not hesitate at all.
Goudan's father said with a simple and honest face, "Jiandong, from now on you are Goudan's big brother. You can order Goudan around with whatever you want to do. If you go east, he will never dare to go west..."
Whenever someone came to express his gratitude, Liu Pandi would think of the heartless Jing Chen. You see, as long as a caring person knows that they should go to express their gratitude for saving their life.
As for Zhou Jingchen, he did come to our house, but his attitude and expression were so disgusting that no matter how you looked at him, he had no gratitude at all.
Not only did Shen Xue save him, but she also sacrificed herself for him and volunteered to serve her. The more Liu Pandi thought about it, the more upset he felt.
No, once Zhou Jingchen is discharged from the hospital, she will have to find an excuse to beat him up.
Goudan's health still needed someone to take care of him, so Goudan's parents expressed their gratitude and did not stay long at the Shen family. Old Mrs. Shen packed some meatballs and twisted dough sticks for Goudan's parents to take back for the children.
"We have food at home, no need." They came to express gratitude, so how could they take such expensive food?
Old Mrs. Shen really wanted to give it to them, and they couldn't refuse her, so they finally took the bowls home.
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. From time to time, we can hear firecrackers outside. They are lit by the kids.
Shen Shuyu then remembered that she didn't buy firecrackers for Gu Jiandong to play with. No wonder the child was so quiet.
She went out on her bike and bought two boxes of firecrackers, two boxes of sky-high rockets, one box of double-kick firecrackers, and two boxes of rowing firecrackers.
Only Shen Shuyu loves her children. If it were someone else, they would not buy so many firecrackers for their children to play with. After all, these things cannot be eaten or used. Once they are lit and make two noises, the money is gone. It is too expensive to spend money just to hear a noise.
After buying the cannons, Shen Shuyu came back and took out boxes of cannons, "Gu Jiandong, these are all bought for you, are you happy?"
Gu Jiandong narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Happy."
Not only Gu Jiandong was happy, Shen Jiabao and the others were also happy to see so many cannons, and they immediately said they wanted to go out and blow up cow dung.
He also invited Shen Shuyu to go out and play with him, but Shen Shuyu declined because she was afraid of being covered in cow dung.
As soon as they left, the house suddenly became much quieter. Shen Shuyu wanted to eat braised pig's trotters, so she went to the kitchen and braised two pig's trotters.
Outside the village entrance, Gu Jiandong, Shen Jiabao and others were lighting firecrackers for fun. Not far from the village entrance, five men were chatting.
These people were not from their Shenjiabao Brigade. Gu Jiandong knew everyone in the Shenjiabao Brigade, young and old.
These five people have been hanging around the Shenjiaba Brigade for half a month.
As soon as he appeared, everyone's eyes were always on him.
Gu Jiandong smiled innocently, "Jiabao, Jiawei, Jiaguo, there are two piles of cow dung over there, let's go blow them up."
The three brothers Shen Jiabao thought that Gu Jiandong’s suggestion was very good. Playing with firecrackers without blowing up cow dung would not be fun enough.
The five people saw that Gu Jiandong and his men seemed to be walking towards them, and one of the younger brothers spoke uncertainly,
"Brother, they are coming over here. Could it be that they have discovered us?"
Huang Xin scolded in a low voice, "Why are you in such a hurry? We are just chatting here, how can we bother anyone? Don't act like you are stealing someone's chicken, being sneaky, it will only make people more suspicious."
Huang Xin didn't know what the people above were thinking, sending these idiots to handle such an important matter.
The four of them arrived at the place Gu Jiandong pointed.
There really were two piles of cow dung. Normally, cow dung was picked up by the people in the cowshed, but these two piles were probably missed.
Shen Jiaguo squatted down, stuck two firecrackers in the cow dung, lit the firecrackers with a match, and then ran away.
Ten seconds later, the cannon fired with a bang, and the cow dung flew everywhere, coincidentally splashing onto the five men.
Gu Jiandong raised his lips slightly, and he fired five firecrackers and threw them casually. A gust of wind blew, and the five firecrackers were blown onto the clothes of several people.
With a series of bang sounds, five people's clothes were blown into big holes and their faces were also injured by the artillery fire.
Five people who came to follow: ?
They touched the cow dung on their faces and clothes, then looked down at their clothes. One of the younger brothers was furious and immediately came over to settle the score with them.
Huang Xin was afraid that if he got too involved, his identity would be exposed, so he grabbed his furious younger brother and said, "Let's go home and have dinner."
Shen Jiabao and the others thought that these five uncles were coming to ask them for an explanation. After all, they were the ones who were covered in cow dung, and Jiandong's firecrackers were accidentally blown onto them, tearing their cotton coats to pieces and leaving their faces covered in gunpowder ash.
