why are you acting coquettish again

Chapter 45 045 Going Home
The bus drove slowly out of Asakawa City and disappeared into the bewildering night.

After seven o'clock in the morning, Gu Yuan, who was still sleeping, suddenly woke up with the sound of the radio. The sun was a bit dazzling. She narrowed her eyes slightly and raised her hand to cover her forehead. She feels at ease.

She pressed the safety button, got up from the seat, and went to get her luggage.

There were not many people on the bus, everyone took their belongings one after another and got off the bus, Gu Yuan went out together with the flow of people until they walked out of the exit of the station.

She took a deep breath, and finally went home, as if the air here was better than that of Asakawa City, she took a few more breaths, but her eyes were red, and her closest family members had died here. gone.

Gu Yuan lifted the luggage bag in her hand, then walked to the side of the road to wait for the bus.

Although Muhe City is also considered a city, it is not worth mentioning compared to Asakawa City. There is no Starbucks or Haidilao here, but there is everything she is familiar with.

She waited at the waiting station for a while, and when the No. 211 bus arrived, she got on the bus with her luggage bag, and still went to the last seat by the window and sat down.

It's autumn now, and Muhe City is a little colder than Asakawa City.

The cool wind kept blowing in from the car window, and the broken hair on Gu Yuan's forehead was slightly messed up, probably because the speed of the car was a bit fast, Gu Yuan felt a chill all over her body, she gathered her coat and reached out to close the car window.

After half an hour, she arrived at the station.

After getting off the car, she looked at the familiar street. Although it was a little old, she still liked this place.

She has only been away for more than two months, and the place where she lives has already been listed as a demolition site, with the word "demolition" printed on the walls above, and some people are already moving furniture. .

She walked a few steps and arrived at the gate. There were a few old men sitting on chairs chatting at the gate. One of them lived next to Gu Yuan's house and watched her grow up.

"Oh, isn't this Xiaoyuan! Why are you back!" one of the uncles said while holding a cattail fan.

Gu Yuan nodded in response, "I'll come back and have a look."

After finishing speaking, he didn't stop at the door too much, and walked directly into the door to go home, and the elders at the door started to talk after seeing people leave.

——"Oh! That child is quite pitiful. His father ran away before he was born. Her mother gave birth to her, and the mother and daughter depended on each other. Who knew that God was so cruel, and took her mother away this year. "

——"However, I heard that her uncle took her to Asakawa City. When their family was handling the funeral, I met the child's uncle. He was quite a nice person."

——"It's also thanks to her relatives who are kind to her. Now that the house has been demolished, she can get some money."

🇧🇷
A few people talked about other people's family affairs, after all, they were not their own family affairs, so they just took things that were cruel to others as topics to pass the time after dinner.

The house that Gu Yuan lives in is a bit like a courtyard house in Beijing, except that it is a bit dilapidated. The houses are all made of bricks and concrete.

She turned a corner and stopped suddenly because she was home.

The lock on the door of the house was a little dusty, and some leaves fell on the threshold. It was obvious that no one had lived in the house.

She took out the somewhat chipped key from her pocket, then put it in the lock, and started to turn the door lock. With a "click", the lock opened.

Gu Yuan pulled out the key, and then took the lock away. After pausing for a while, she opened the door. As soon as she entered the door, the scent rushed to her face, and the osmanthus flowers in the courtyard were still blooming as usual.

She remembered that this sweet-scented osmanthus tree had been there since she was born. Her mother told her that on the day she was born, the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard was full of sweet-scented osmanthus, and the fragrance of the yard was full.

My mother would make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes for her whenever she was free, which was her favorite.

Gu Yuan regained her composure and walked into the house. As soon as she opened the door, there was a smell of dust. This kind of brick-walled house is not like an apartment. Even if it is not occupied for half a year, there will be no smell. As long as no one is there for more than a month If you take care of it, there will be a smell of dust.

She put down her luggage bag, opened all the windows in the house, and then went to the yard to pick up a bucket of water, splashed it on the ground, and changed the air.

When I entered the kitchen, I found that the refrigerator was still there, so I simply tidied it up and plugged it in. The refrigerator was empty, and I thought about going out to buy something.

Checking the time, she found that it was only past nine o'clock in the morning. She took out her wallet, went to the kitchen to get a small vegetable box, and went out.

Along the way, she will also meet a few acquaintances, she still greets them as usual, even though she sees the compassion in their eyes, she tries to smile as much as possible, and tells them with actions that she is still good.

She went to a nearby vegetable market. Although the crowded period had passed, there were still many people.

Slowly walking into the vegetable market that she used to go almost every day, there are still familiar vendors and small stalls, but there is no such familiar person around her anymore.

When she used to go grocery shopping with her mother, her mother would let her watch how to buy fresh and delicious vegetables, as if she had expected that she would not be with her for long.

I simply picked some vegetables and carrots, then bought some lean meat and went home.

When she came home, there were a few more people in the family, including her second aunt, second uncle, and some neighbors.

Gu Yuan raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect that she had only been back for more than an hour, and the news spread so quickly.

"Second aunt, second uncle, uncles and aunts, why are you here?" she asked.

Gu Yifen, Gu Yuan's second aunt, came over and put her hand on her shoulder, "Little Yuan, why don't you call your second aunt when you come back, just tell her if you have anything."

"Well, I'm also on National Day holiday, and I'll stay home for a few days, so I didn't tell you because I was afraid to trouble you."

"Oh, what did you say, kid? We are all one family, so it's not troublesome!" Gu Yifen smiled and patted Gu Yuan's shoulder.

Although Gu Yifen was her second aunt, she didn't treat her that well, otherwise she wouldn't have ignored her affairs after her mother left, but now she still showed concern for her.

She probably guessed it, the neighbor should have called her and asked her to come and have a look, otherwise she would not have come.

Gu Yuan didn't want others to gossip about the family, so she just smiled lightly and didn't speak.

He stepped into the kitchen, put the vegetable box in his hand on the table, opened the refrigerator, and put the vegetables in one by one, while Gu Yixin was talking to the neighbors in the yard.

As for what to say, it was nothing more than those things about her. She didn't want to pay attention to it. She wanted to cook some rice. When she opened the cupboard, she realized that she forgot to buy rice, but there were still some noodles in it.

When she walked out of the kitchen, the neighbors were about to leave, and when they left, they told her to call them for help if they needed anything.

After everyone left, Gu Yifen immediately sat down on the chair in the yard, and her tone of voice was no longer the same as before, but complained, "Xiao Yuan, does your uncle know that you came back so suddenly? Also, Don't you know to tell me first when you come back, and ask the neighbors to call me, which makes it difficult for me to be a man!"

"That's right, Xiaoyuan, you can't do this in the future!" The second uncle echoed from the side.

Gu Yuan raised her eyebrows, can't she just pretend for a while?As soon as the person left, his face changed immediately.

Seeing that Gu Yuan didn't reply, Gu Yifen continued, "Since you're back, let's talk about the demolition funds for your house."

"I will come back to get the demolition money by myself, so I won't bother you, Second Aunt." Gu Yuan said with a cold face.

Gu Yifen frowned when she heard this, "You child, what are you talking about? After my sister left, we brothers and sisters were not in charge of her funeral, ah! Now that you have money, you can help her." Let's just put it aside and talk."

Gu Yuan really didn't expect her to say such a thing, and said sarcastically: "You still know that my mother is your sister, she is gone, and you still have to come to get the money now, so you are not afraid that my mother will go to find her at night. You?"

"What are you talking about! Don't think that I dare not hit you. After all, I am also your second aunt. With your attitude of speaking, I can teach you a lesson for your mother!" Gu Yifen stood up, walked to Gu Yuan's side, Just raise your hand.

It was her husband who hurried forward to stop her.

"Oh, it's alright, it's alright, what are you doing, put your temper away." Liu Jiushan comforted Gu Yifen.

Then he looked at Gu Yuan and said, "Xiao Yuan, look at our family. Although your elder brother is already working, the consumption outside is very high, and you can't make much money. We still have to pay for your younger brother to go to school, so the expenses are huge. , We also paid a lot of money for your mother's funeral, you see."

Gu Yuan didn't let Liu Jiushan continue, and interrupted him directly, "Okay, then tell me, how much money you spent at that time, I will pay you back."

"Oh, I can't say it back, we are all a family." Liu Jiushan said.

Gu Yifen, who was standing aside, touched Liu Jiushan's hand with her elbow, "Why do you talk so much when you ask for money!"

"At the beginning, we paid 2340 yuan!"

When Gu Yuan heard Gu Yifen say that very accurate number, she felt chills in her heart. She really didn't expect that the so-called second aunt, mother's younger sister, turned out to be the so-called family. I'm ready to get the money back.

She didn't speak, turned around and walked into the house, just when the two thought that Gu Yuan didn't want to talk to them, they saw her walking out with a wad of money.

"Here is 2400 yuan, you take it away, our family will not owe you any more, Second Aunt!" When Gu Yuan called "Second Aunt", she deliberately lowered her voice.

Liu Jiushan was a little embarrassed standing aside. He didn't take the money, but Gu Yifen didn't think there was anything wrong at all, so he reached out to take the money and said it himself.

"."

Gu Yuan looked at Gu Yifen who was counting the money, and really didn't know what to say, such a family relationship is really fragile, how could her mother have such a younger sister?
