There was a child standing opposite, who looked no more than five or six years old. After looking at Gu Yundong, he suddenly turned around and ran back to the house.

As he ran, he shouted, "Nah, nah, the courtyard wall has collapsed, collapsed."

The figure of the child disappeared instantly, Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan looked at each other, shrugged, and walked towards the collapsed position.

Shao Qingyuan didn't let her get too close, for fear that other places would collapse and it would be bad to hit her.

He walked to the edge himself, looked left and right, and frowned.

This yard and the yard next door share the same wall, but generally speaking, even if the walls of the two families are next to each other, each family erects a wall, which together becomes a thick wall.

But there is only one yard in this yard. If you look closely, you will find that it is the wall of the other party's yard that has been knocked off.

Apparently the next-door neighbor wanted to make the yard look bigger and sneaked it away.

As a result, it rained heavily all night yesterday, and the wall was too thin to withstand it and collapsed.

Shao Qingyuan just saw clearly that the child on the opposite side had already run out with a woman.

When the woman saw Shao Qingyuan, she was stunned for a moment, and quickly put on a smile, "Oh, are you the tenants who just came to rent this yard yesterday?"

Shao Qingyuan glanced at her and didn't say a word. Gu Yundong took two steps forward and nodded with a smile, "Yes, we are the tenants who came here yesterday, auntie, look at this wall..."

The woman glanced at it, her brows knitted tightly, she actually wanted to say that it was the wall on Gu Yundong's side that collapsed, and it had nothing to do with her. Let them fill the hole themselves, or go to the landlord to fix the problem.

But as soon as he looked up to meet Shao Qingyuan's icy eyes, he didn't dare to say this. After thinking about it for a long time, he said, "Well, you are new here, and you are not familiar with this place. In this way, I will let you know in a while. My son will help you build this courtyard wall, it's all right, no trouble."

Gu Yundong laughed twice, "Okay."

What is helping us? ? What this aunt said was really interesting.

Not long after, the aunt called two young and strong men, pulled up the mud, and began to bury their heads in repairing the wall.

Gu Yundong occasionally heard their muttering voices, "I already said that a wall will not work, my mother has to knock down the piece of our house, now it's alright, it's collapsed."

"Who said no?"

Taking advantage of the time when they were repairing the wall, the aunt next door came to knock on Gu Yundong's yard directly, carrying a few wild fruits picked from the mountain, and handed them to Gu Yundong very enthusiastically.

Then he began to inquire about her origin, "Mrs. Gu, where did you come from? What do you do for a living?"

In order not to attract the attention of others, Gu Yundong and the others temporarily changed their surnames.

Hearing the aunt's question, she just smiled and said, "We came from Wanqing Mansion, originally to come to seek refuge with relatives, but the relatives went far away, and the servants in the family did not dare to let us go easily. Go in. There is no way, we can only find a place to rent a house and wait for the relative to come back to see it. "

The woman didn't know if she believed her words. She smiled and said, "We will be neighbors from now on. If you have anything to do, just come and find your aunt. My husband's surname is Yuan."

Gu Yundong nodded, and the two talked for a while. Seeing that the courtyard wall had been repaired, the Yuan family aunt finally said goodbye and left.

However, no one expected that the next day, a rumor suddenly appeared in the vicinity.
