"So Uncle Li, you are not planning to stay because of the money issue. If that is the problem, I still have some here that I can lend to you first." Gulan said sincerely.
She felt very tired just taking care of her son, Daya and Erya, and it was even more difficult for the whole family.
The offer to lend her the money was not out of politeness but a sincere one. Just because he had asked her son to take a ride in the cart to help her look after AnAn, Gulan couldn't just stand by and watch.
He was just a chance acquaintance, someone he met halfway, but he was so sincere to him just for showing him a little kindness. This child is so kind-hearted. Gulan's words touched Old Man Li, but how could he accept it? He waved his hand and said "No thanks".
"Good boy, thank you. We appreciate your kindness. We have decided not to stay here. After thinking about it, we still want to follow everyone. This way, even if we encounter any problems in the future, we can discuss them together and have someone to help each other. Money... Uncle still has some here, you don't have to worry about us. And the children, don't say this next time. Don't show off your wealth. You should also be more careful. If you encounter..."
At the end of his speech, Mr. Li suddenly thought of Gulan's fighting ability and laughed. With this child's ability, who would dare to have any bad intentions?
"Anyway, you have to count it in your heart." Old man Li spoke from the bottom of his heart, and his starting point was all for Gulan's good.
How could Gulan not hear that? A warm feeling appeared on her face. "I understand, uncle." The word "uncle" was clearly sincere. "Isn't it because it's you?" There was a bit of intimacy in her words, unlike before when she smiled but still had a bit of indifference in her eyes.
In fact, Gulan has always been a rather cold person, otherwise a marriage would not have broken up so easily without even being able to be saved, even though the man was a scumbag. But once she accepts you in her heart, she will treat you well with all her heart within her ability. Gulan began to rummage through the backpack full of things and found something wrapped in oil paper.
"Uncle, this is the donkey meat in sauce. Take it back and try it."
"Donkey meat, how much silver does it cost? No, it's too expensive. You can keep it for yourself." When Old Man Li heard that it was donkey meat, he refused without hesitation. The price of donkey meat and beef is not much different, both are very expensive, and of course the taste is also amazing. To be honest, I can't help but start drooling just by hearing about it.
Li Da and the others nearby had their eyes lit up, but they knew that their father would definitely not accept it.
"I have more here," Gulan pointed to the same oil paper bag in the basket, "Are you still so polite to me, uncle? I thought we were already relatives." Gulan lowered her eyes when she said the last sentence.
Old man Li couldn't help laughing. He had used all the methods of provoking the opponent, and now he really had to give up.
"Okay, kid, why don't you want the delicious food? Of course you should accept it given by your nephew. But don't do this next time. It's too expensive." Although it was not his own money and he had been frugal all his life, Old Man Li still felt distressed.
Gulan smiled and handed the oil paper bag in her hand to Old Man Li. As to whether he listened to her or not, only Gulan herself knew.
Seeing this, AnAn suddenly remembered the candied haws, and hurriedly called Goudan, then took a candied haws from the basket and went to meet Goudan who was running towards him.
As soon as the little guy heard AnAn's call, he immediately left his mother and ran away without stopping. After seeing what his brother AnAn was holding, his eyes lit up and he was almost drooling.
"Brother AnAn, what is this?" Forgive him for being so young and not knowing what this is. His eyes were fixed on this red thing, which looked delicious.
"It's called Tanghulu, it's very delicious, and this one is for you." AnAn handed the Tanghulu in his hand to Goudan. But when he saw the other brothers and sisters of the Li family, and looked at the candied haws in Goudan's hand, he seemed to have made some decision in his heart, and then ran to Gulan.
"Dad, can I have another one?"
"Of course, didn't Dad say that? These are all yours. Since they are yours, you have the right to decide how to distribute them." Gulan didn't ask anything. She was even happier that her son had his own ideas.
"Thank you, Dad," AnAn was satisfied, and took out another one from the basket and handed it to Goudan, "This one is for your brother and sister, you are not allowed to steal it."
"Yes, Goudan has some. I won't steal them. Thank you, Brother AnAn." After saying that, he happily ran back to his brother and sister and gave one of the candied haws to them as if he was presenting a treasure. He even knew to say thank you.
Li Si, who witnessed the whole process, was very happy to see the changes in her son. Since playing with AnAn, the child has not only spoken more fluently, but also become more polite.
Gulan was very pleased. The little bun had always been a bit hungry and it was not easy for him to share his food with his friends. He deserved praise.
"AnAn is awesome!" Gulan gave hier son a thumbs up.
The little guy now understands the meaning of the thumb, and his little tender teeth are showing with joy.
After getting a candied haws, several grandchildren of the Li family came to AnAn and Gulan shyly and said "thank you".
There were meat and candied haws. Old man Li and the others were really embarrassed. Except for Old Man Li and a few other men who rushed to help Gulan deliver the food to the carriage, no one else helped Gulan.
If Gulan hadn't quickly stopped the basket, Li Da and the others would have wanted to sort out the things in the basket as well. The enthusiasm is a little overwhelming. Fortunately, they didn't insist and followed their father back under his glare.
After instructing Daya and Erya to look after AnAn, Gulan gave Xiang Yunjin a look and they both got on the carriage.
"Take off your clothes, let me see the wound." Gulan urged as soon as she got in the cart.
Gulan's nervous look made Xiang Yunjin feel very comforted. This feeling was very good, although he did not lack people's care. Without saying a word, he took off his clothes, revealing his inverted triangle figure with eight pack abs. Gulan was envious every time she saw him.
Gulan remember that she had abdominal muscles when she was young. I wonder when she will be able to develop abdominal muscles in this body. But for now, I'd better gain weight first. I'm too thin and I can't train even if I want to. Calming her mind, Gulan untied the bandage and examined the wound.
There wasn't much of a problem at the moment, except for a small tear on the chest that was bleeding a little, everything else was fine. The more serious wound was on the back. Although it was not big, it was indeed torn and a lot of blood had seeped out. However, the bleeding had stopped automatically at this moment, and the blood stains on the clothes had dried.
Gulan pressed it gently, "Does it hurt?"
Xiang Yunjin shook his head, "Not very strong."
Gulan breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that there should be no cracks inside. Fortunately.
Then she took out the disinfection and bandage supplies from the package, disinfected them, sprinkled medicine on them, and re-bandaged them. Xiang Yunjin didn't make a sound during the whole process. Gulan glanced at him. It seemed that since he woke up, every time she applied the medicine, no matter how lightly or heavily she applied it, this guy never made a sound. His tolerance was indeed good.
