Chapter 1113: Nephew-In-Law of the Same Age
Gu Yundong was helpless. Didn’t he know that he was still sick? Wouldn’t he feel dizzy and unfortable after asking so many questions?
“Uncle, there’s no hurry. I’ll tell you slowly. We have other things to settle now. Have you forgotten?”
Gu Xiaoxi was stunned. That’s right, they were still in Great Rock Village.
He suddenly became nervous. “Yundong, leave quickly. The Zhou family wants to kill me this time. I’ll implicate you.”
“Don’t worry, we brought you out of the ancestral hall. We definitely have a way to escape. As for you, eat something and recuperate well. Then tell me the cause and effect of the matter. We’ll discuss it together.”
Shao Qingyuan handed over a bowl of porridge at the right time. Gu Yundong scooped a small spoonful and blew on it before feeding it to Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi’s gaze landed on Shao Qingyuan, who was behind her. “This is…”
“This is Shao Qingyuan, my fiancé. We’re already engaged.”
Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes suddenly widened. If he hadn’t been leaning against the headboard, he would have fallen back onto the bed.
Engaged?
He was instantly nervous, especially when he saw that Shao Qingyuan seemed to be very well-off. He was afraid that he would embarrass Gu Yundong, so he did not dare to speak for a moment.
Seeing this, Shao Qingyuan thought for a moment and took the bowl from Gu Yundong’s hand. He said, “I’ll feed Uncle. Go eat first. We’ll talk about other things after that.”
Gu Yundong nodded, got up, and walked to the table. She first served a bowl to the motionless Chang Yaya.
Chang Yaya was stunned. She raised her head and looked at her in surprise.
“Eat it. I see that you don’t have any strength at all. Drink some to warm your stomach first. No matter what, we’re on the same side now. You can’t starve to death before we wash off the dirty water on you.”
Chang Yaya pursed her lips and reached out to take it. She lowered her head and whispered, “Thank you.”
Gu Yundong did not say anything else. She and Chang Yaya faced each other and ate quietly.
Seeing that she only ate porridge, Gu Yundong sighed and could only put a large piece of food into her bowl.
Chang Yaya lowered her head even more.
Beside the bed, Shao Qingyuan and Gu Xiaoxi fell into a strange silence.
Gu Xiaoxi looked at her nephew-in-law, who was about the same age as her, who was holding a spoon carefully. She instantly felt even more dizzy.
Fortunately, Shao Qingyuan was patient. As he fed him, he whispered to divert his attention. “Uncle, don’t worry. Although the Zhou family and the Chang family are the main forces in Great Rock Village, as long as they don’t get along, they will be like loose sand and won’t pose much of a threat to us. Now that the Chang family is on our side, the Zhou family won’t have an advantage and won’t be able to gain anything. Moreover, we have helpers. If we really can’t leave, the government office will send people to deal with this matter.”
Sure enough, Gu Xiaoxi listened to him. Not long after, he finished half a bowl of porridge.
When he was almost done eating, Shao Qingyuan came back with a bowl and started to finish his lunch.
Gu Xiaoxi leaned against the headboard of the bed and could not help but smile when he saw his niece busy and lively.
Gu Yundong closed the door after seeing that he was in better spirits and that the heat had almost subsided.
The six people outside the door were only asked to watch from the courtyard, so although they found it strange that the prisoners closed the door and wanted to say something, with the other party holding them back, no one dared to eavesdrop.
Gu Yundong and the others formed a circle and began to talk about the whole story of the adultery case.
