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

Chapter 121: Only when Shanghe Village is well, can everyone be well

It was already dusk when the two arrived at Xiaohe Town Commune. They didn't find any rides along the way, and it was already dark when they returned to Shanghe Village.

The weather has started to get colder. As he walked on the road, the cold wind blew straight into his clothes. Gu Zhan was wearing thin clothes and was shivering with cold.

Fortunately, not long after the wind started, the two arrived at Shanghe Village.

When Gu Zhanlin entered the house, Zhao Baogen called him.

After waiting for a long time, Zhao Baogen didn't speak. Just when Gu Zhan couldn't stand the cold anymore and was about to speak, Zhao Baogen's slightly heavy voice came: "Boy, whether this succeeds or not, uncle thanks you on behalf of the members of the Shanghe Village Production Brigade."

Gu Zhan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that it was because of this incident.

Gu Zhan thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Zhao, you don't have to be so polite. Only when Shanghe Village is doing well can everyone do well."

Although Gu Zhan felt deep regret and hatred for what happened to his wife and daughter in his previous life, he also knew that the fate of his wife and daughter in his previous life was not only because of the Gu family, but more importantly because of himself.

Most of the people in Shanghe Village had been kind to him, either by giving him a meal or a piece of clothing. All these things added up were enough for him to repay these people in this life.

"Oh!" Zhao Baogen responded softly, choked up almost unnoticeably, turned around and blended into the night.

Gu Zhan heard it but didn't say anything. Zhao Baogen probably didn't want to see him like this.

After standing at the door and adjusting his mood, Gu Zhan reached out and pushed the door, but it didn't open. He must have locked it from the inside, so after Gu Zhan failed to open the door, he stood at the door and raised his voice: "Wife, it's me, open the door."

In fact, Liu Xiaoxi heard it as early as the first time Gu Zhan pushed the door, but because it was windy at this time, she was afraid that it was the wind that made the door sound, so she thought of waiting and confirming before opening the door.

She pricked up her ears to pay attention to the movements outside. As expected, she heard Gu Zhan's voice outside the door within a few seconds.

Liu Xiaoxi hurried out to open the door for Gu Zhan.

As the door opened, a gust of cold wind blew directly into the yard. Liu Xiaoxi shivered from the cold and quickly grabbed Gu Zhan's hand and went into the house.

"Why did you come back just now?" Liu Xiaoxi looked distressed when she saw Gu Zhan's face turning a little blue due to the wind.

Gu Zhan knew that Liu Xiaoxi was worried about him, so he concealed the fact that he had walked back and simply said, "I wasted some time in the county town. Wife, do you have anything to eat? I'm starving."

"Oh, yes, you stay in the room, I'll get it." When Liu Xiaoxi heard that Gu Zhan had not eaten yet, she really forgot to ask other things and hurried out to the kitchen to get food for Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan looked at Liu Xiaoxi's back and hurried forward to help her to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Liu Xiaoxi stewed potatoes in a pot. When they were taken out of the pot, they were still warm.

Gu Zhan held the dishes and waited for Liu Xiaoxi to take out two steamed buns from the porcelain bowl on the chopping board before he helped her turn around and go to the main room.

After having lunch at noon, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. In addition, he had walked for a distance, so he felt a little dizzy in front of his eyes.

Gu Zhan swallowed two steamed buns with stewed potatoes in just a few minutes, and only then did he feel full.

Seeing Gu Zhan eating voraciously, Liu Xiaoxi felt distressed and quickly poured a cup of hot water and placed it on Gu Zhan's right hand: "Don't choke, eat slowly."

Hearing his wife's voice, Gu Zhan finally realized that he had eaten too fast. He looked at Liu Xiaoxi a little embarrassedly and said, "I was busy too late today. I'm a little hungry."

Ever since his rebirth, Gu Zhan has been very concerned about his image in front of Liu Xiaoxi. It is rare for him to lose his composure like this. After eating like this today, all his hard work for many days was wasted.

He felt a little regretful.

Only after eating a hot meal did Gu Zhan feel his body warm up a little.

"How's the cattle farm going?" Liu Xiaoxi asked.

Gu Zhan has been busy writing a plan for the cattle farm recently. Liu Xiaoxi knows something about it. Today, experts from the province came over, and Gu Zhan has been busy all day, but no one knows what the result will be.

Thinking about Sun Yuan and Guo Zhida's reactions today, Gu Zhan probably had to continue the discussion. He shook his head and said, "It's not done yet. It's a bit difficult. We don't have much start-up capital, so we can't pay so much money for buying cattle at once."

difficulty?

This was the first time in a long time that Liu Xiaoxi had heard the word "difficult" from Gu Zhan's mouth. For a moment, she felt a little depressed.

She walked over and sat next to Gu Zhan, holding his hands that had not yet regained their warmth, and whispered, "Since it's difficult, let's take it slow. There's no need to rush. Take your time, and it will eventually be solved."

Gu Zhanhui held Liu Xiaoxi's smooth, white hands, his eyes fixed on the flickering lights. After a long moment, he slowly said, "I've always wanted to do something to make this place less poor and for everyone to live a good life."

Most importantly, reduce the various tragedies caused by poverty.

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoxi suddenly turned around and glanced at Gu Zhan.

It seemed that from this moment on, Liu Xiaoxi had a new and clearer understanding of Gu Zhan, and knew that the person in front of him had such a wish.

It seemed as if he had been working towards this goal for a while. He took the risk of proposing intercropping corn and soybeans, and painstakingly treated sick cattle. All of these things, surprisingly, had already begun to show signs of progress.

Gu Zhan gently pulled Liu Xiaoxi into his arms and whispered, "It's difficult, but we'll take it slow and we'll get through it."

"Yes, it will work out, Gu Zhan. Actually, you don't have to be so anxious."

Gu Zhan's body stiffened as he hugged Liu Xiaoxi. Did even his wife see that he was being overly anxious?

Indeed, after his rebirth, he was anxious almost every moment, fearing that the tragedy of his previous life would happen again even though he knew about it in advance. So he arranged his life very fully, wanting to do his utmost to improve it.

Seeing through his wife's thoughts, Gu Zhan suddenly felt enlightened. He patted Liu Xiaoxi's back and said slowly, "Wife, you're right. I was indeed too impatient."

Lying on the kang, Gu Zhan carefully thought about the plan he had written. He found that he only focused on the interests of Shanghe Village, but did not consider what the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences could get from this project.

Even though he knew in his heart that he would not let the Academy of Agricultural Sciences lose money on its investment, he was after all standing from the perspective of a reborn God. The other party on the other side of the incident, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, knew nothing and only felt that the "Anhe No. 1" cattle they had worked so hard to cultivate did not get the due return.
