Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Gu Yue was not used to it.

He has never even held a girl's hand in his life, and suddenly someone calls him dad. You can imagine how he feels.

This isn't the kind of thing that guys joke about!

It’s really killing if the boss has a father!

"What's wrong?" Gu Yue had a tense face. He knew how scary and weird it would be if Gu Dashi suddenly spoke in a friendly manner.

"It's time to water the fields. I can't lift the bucket." The young man Gu Xu said in a low voice.

He lowered his head, so his expression couldn't be seen clearly, but Gu Yue's intuition was that Gu Xu was not as humble and submissive as he appeared.

But the real work did have to be done. Gu Dashi had no idea how to farm, and his memories of working in the fields as a child were mostly of him being lazy.

Gu Yue, a man who spent most of his short life in the city, was lazy and didn't know how to grow crops, let alone the art of farming.

You won’t go wrong if you listen to Gu Xu!

"It's okay! I won't go out to gamble anymore and will focus on farming." Gu Yue stood up.

Gu Yue took out two large wooden barrels from the pile of farm tools, and told Gu Xu to just follow with the ladle, then he closed the door and left the yard.

Gu Xu obeyed all the instructions without any change in expression. He just raised his eyes and observed Gu Yue carefully.

this person……

After walking out of the yard in a high-spirited manner, Gu Yue's fighting spirit suddenly died down. He turned around and looked at Gu Xu - Gu Dashi didn't even remember where the family's land was!

"Xiao Xu, lead the way." Gu Yue tried to be calm and gave himself a perfect excuse, "I have been in a daze for so many years, I don't even remember where I am."

Gu Xu had a complicated expression, and a hint of doubt flashed through his eyes as he looked at him. He did not make any sarcastic remarks, but walked towards the east end of the village with the ladle in his hand.

Gu Yue wanted to take advantage of the time on the road to show his goodwill, but he was afraid that his inconsistent words and actions would arouse the suspicion of this extremely smart male protagonist, so he gave up the idea.

The two of them walked in silence, one after the other.

There were quite a few villagers on the road. Most of them were carrying water. Seeing the low pressure around the father and son, no one dared to approach them to talk. They only chatted with them as they walked away: "Is that Gu Dashi? Why doesn't he go out to gamble?"

"Humph, a trip to the King of Hell must have scared him to death, right?"

"Don't believe it! You pretended to be a decent person last time just to ask for money from Auntie. It's better to believe that I will be the emperor than to believe that Gu Dashi doesn't gamble!"

"Mother, how dare you say that? You are tired of living!"

"Hey, you're still the emperor? You're having a hard time managing your wife's family!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The men exchanged a few words and then went back to watering the fields together.

Gu Yue felt like crying and laughing at the same time. With Gu Dashi's dark history, it was even more difficult for him to gain the trust of others, especially the direct victim in front of him.

There is no need to abuse him any more. Now that Gu Xu has the power, he will definitely kill Gu Dashi first!

The Gu family’s fields are in a good location, close to home and next to a canal.

Dirt roads separated the fields. Standing on the small road at the edge of the field, the fields spread out almost endlessly. Extending to the end of the horizon was a very long gentle slope sloping upwards, with rivers and villages inlaid on the slope; another piece was next to a dense forest, and the boundaries were also invisible.

Gu Xu pointed to his own land. It was a very large piece of land, and it was full of green wheat seedlings, full of vitality.

"You planted all these? That's amazing, you did a great job!" Gu Yue admired from the bottom of his heart.

Gu Xu's expression was cold and he was not moved at all. He explained: "Only the two acres next to each other. The rest I... I rented to others."

Gu Xu lowered his eyes. If it was Gu Dashi, he would definitely ask him for the rent.

"Oh, that's right. You can't handle so many by yourself." Gu Yue said, "That's also amazing. These two acres are not small!"

He also wanted to say "Thanks to you for all these years", but it seemed that the difference between him and Gu Dashi's personality was too big, so he swallowed the words back.

Gu Xu looked up at him. His face was calm, without any calculation.

He saw Gu Yue coming to the canal, and he had no intention of continuing the discussion about renting the land.

There has been no rain for several days and the river has dried up, with only a layer of wet mud in the canal.

"We have to fetch water from the well." Gu Yue carried two buckets and stood back on the path, stepping on the stones beside the canal.

He was a little scared of Gu Xu's gaze, and without waiting for Gu Xu to speak, he just walked in the direction of the village well in his memory.

Gu Xu continued to follow behind in silence.

In fact, he has a lot of work to do, such as weeding or looking after the vegetable fields, but Gu Dashi's awakening is strange and weird, so Gu Xu has to keep an eye on him, in case "Gu Dashi" is up to something bad again.

It's so weird. Like... like a different person?

Along the way, they met many neighbors, most of whom didn't give Gu Dashi a good look, but greeted Gu Xu warmly. Gu Yue observed from the side, Gu Xu was shy but greeted everyone properly, and the little girl of Lao Liu stuffed two duck eggs into his pocket. It's just that the clothes are too worn... very shabby, Gu Yue felt guilty for no reason, thinking that he had to hurry up to make new clothes for the children.

Oh, and he also had to wash off the original owner's stench. He had endured it until now.

When they arrived at the well, there were people fetching water in twos and threes, and some people mocked Gu Dashi for finally not being lazy. Gu Yue just laughed it off and didn't say much, for fear that people would notice. But Gu Yue had no experience and didn't know that fetching water should be carried with a shoulder pole to save effort, so he could only carry one in each hand like the monks in Shaolin Temple practicing martial arts.

He didn't dare let Gu Xu take over. What a good opportunity to show off.

The wooden barrel was quite large, and Gu Yue originally thought that it would take some effort to lift it, but he did not expect that he was quite strong, and he did not even feel it was heavy when he lifted it left and right. Except for a slight limp that caused some water to spill, he was able to lift the water to the ridge smoothly.

"Xiao Xu, you take care of this acre, and I'll water that side." Gu Yue considerately placed the bucket in the middle of the ridge to save him from running back and forth.

Gu Xu still nodded, looking very well behaved.

Two people were on each side, Gu Xu maintained his "can't carry water" persona, using a large gourd ladle to splash water. Gu Yue didn't know how to water the land, but he looked around and learned how other people watered their fields. He saw the man pick up the bucket and splash it in the field, and he followed suit, and the small area under his feet immediately became wet.

Gu Yue didn't know how deep he had to pour the water, but two buckets of water were definitely not enough. However, Gu Yue was very motivated, and after pouring the water with this bucket, he went to help Gu Xu. Then he went back with the empty bucket to fetch water, and then brought the water back. After going back and forth for more than ten times, even though he had a lot of strength, he was exhausted and his right leg was aching.

After watering two acres of land, the slightly wilted wheat seedlings obviously became more energetic, and the lush green color was really pleasing to the eye.

but……

This land cannot be cultivated for long!

According to Gu Dashi's memory, this dynasty was called Northern Qin, and its development level was similar to that of the Tang Dynasty. It was a time when even eight generations of poor peasants could not raise a scholar, and farming would only lead to a dead end. Moreover, if he wanted to build a good relationship with Gu Xu, it would be useless without an economic foundation.

Gu Yue wiped the sweat off his head. He felt a little weak from hunger, but he was strong and healthy, so he could still endure this little bit of fatigue. The sun was getting hotter at noon, and the spring sun was a little scorching.

He asked Gu Xu: "What else do we need to do after watering the land?"

There were still some swelling on the tall man's face, and a scar across his forehead made his face look a little fierce.

But when Gu Xu looked at him, he felt that his face, which always had a vicious look, had become a little softer. His original impatient expression had completely disappeared, and there was no trace of flaws at all.

"No more, Dad." Gu Xu looked straight over, but found that Gu Dashi involuntarily looked away.

"I pulled weeds a few days ago, now I can take a break." Gu Xu stared at him instead.

Gu Yue was very happy. He had time to do his own things. "Okay... Then you can go play by yourself this afternoon. I'll go to the woods to see if I can get some meat."

Gu Dashi remembered that there were wild rabbits and pheasants in the woods. The small rich farmer who moved away a few years ago had a thin dog that was very good at catching rabbits.

"Yeah." Gu Xu certainly didn't miss the joy on Gu Yue's brows, and his face turned cold. Was he looking for an excuse to go gamble?
