He had a place to live,
Even if there was a kind of cover. When the Ai Cao was in the hospital,
He tried his best to make everything inconspicuous. Occasionally, when he encountered something that he couldn't solve, he would ask Jiang Yuan to come over and help.
In the blink of an eye, five or six days had passed like this.
During this period, grandfather came to visit Gu Dong,
The old man was old and worried a lot about his grandson. But other than caring,
As for the rest, they were powerless to help even if they wanted to. Grandfather Gu was very sad about this.
In addition, on the third day of Gu Dong's hospitalization, a major event happened. After the fugitive who had committed a heinous crime was sent to the city, the major murder case was solved. Gu Dong, as the key figure in this case,
Was praised.
Not only did representatives of the county's Public Security Bureau come to visit,
This matter was also set as a model,
The county praised,
Let them learn from Gu Dong's fearlessness of sacrifice,
The spirit of bravery to fight against murderers.
These two days..,
The people in the ward came in waves. They were all here to visit and learn. The Ai Cao was a little unhappy,
He felt that they had affected Gu Dong's rest.
"It's okay,
Think about it,
Every time they come to visit me, a hero,
They will bring some things,
These things are saved up,
Take them home. We will have a good winter. "Gu Dong smiled and comforted the Ai Cao.
"You can't even recuperate properly." The Ai Cao sat and tasted it with his head lowered. He was still not very happy.
"We made a profit, we made a profit. My injury is almost healed now. Didn't the doctor say that as long as there's no more inflammation, I'll be able to jump around again in half a month?"
Gu Dong was very happy with the outcome of this matter. Not only was he praised by the county, but he was also very happy with the other things that came with this matter.
Grandfather Gu sent someone to bring news that because of his grandson's meritorious service, he didn't have to be dragged to study this winter. He just had to stay in the village and take care of the large group of cattle and sheep.
In addition, reporters from the city also came to interview Gu Dong. They wrote very touching stories about him, and it was published in the newspapers for three consecutive days.
The massacre of a family was already sensational enough. Now that Gu Dong, the hero who caught the murderer, was injured, this incident caused a sensation in the entire county after being embellished by the reporters.
The publicity department came again and again. Groups of primary school, middle school, and high school students came to see Hero and learn from him.
Gu Dong had a feeling that after this incident, when he returned to the village, he would no longer be the "landlord's son" that everyone hated. He would also be labeled as a "hero" who was fearless of sacrifice and dared to fight against the cruel murderer. This label would change a lot of things.
Moreover, the specific benefits of this matter could already be seen. First, Grandpa didn't have to be dragged out this winter. Secondly, whether it was the village chief or the village's cultural propagandists, they were all very polite when they came to talk to him. The young students admired and worshipped him.
Oh right, during this period of time, there were not only good things. There was also something that made Gu Dong depressed. It was about Ai San An.
"I'm guessing that he will definitely come again this afternoon. Didn't Jiang Yuan say that they would help us exchange two boxes of canned food for cloth? You can go and see if he's done this afternoon. Don't stay here. I can get out of the field by myself. You don't have to worry about this. "After lunch, Gu Dong urged Ai Cao to go back to Zhuang Yan's house.
Because all the schools were organizing to study and visit Gu Dong, Hero, it was inevitable that people would come to Ai San An's technical secondary school too. And because Ai San An and Hero were from the same village, he was fortunate enough to be one of the many student representatives.
It was the first time Ai San An came with his teacher and classmates. He was quite obedient, except for saying to Ai Cao, "I'll come and see you later!"
He wasn't joking when he said that. He really did come here almost every afternoon after school.
"Okay then. You sleep for a while. I'll go back to Nan 'er Hutong first. If Jiang Yuan can get the cloth, I'll be busy at Zhuang Yan's house. Oh right, let's eat chicken soup tonight. Jiang Yuan got two more chickens. They look quite fat. "
Mugwort had never thought that Jiang Yuan, whom he had accidentally met, would be so capable. Whether it was corn, sweet potato, white flour, or precious tonics like canned fruits and malted milk, as long as it was in his hands, he would be able to return the money or bring back what he wanted in a few days.
During this period of time, there were too many people coming and going. Ai Cao did not openly use the things in Zhuangzi. Instead, he gave the things that Gu Dong brought to Jiang Yuan. They had exchanged them for money, eggs, pork, and even rice and flour.
Although Jiang Yuan looked like a poor kid, Mugwort realized that he was very smart. Moreover, in this county city, he knew a lot of people and had a lot of connections.
With Jiang Yuan's help, Ai Cao felt a lot more relaxed. Although Gu Dong minded that Jiang Yuan was a man, he knew that Ai Cao did not have any feelings for him. Moreover, there was also Zhuang Yan, so they got along quite well.
"Okay, you can do whatever you want. Hurry up and leave. It's fine here." Gu Dong did not want Ai Cao to meet Ai San An.
Five minutes after Ai Cao left, Ai San An came over. As soon as he entered the room, he looked left and right.
"What are you looking for?" Gu Dong, who was lying on the bed, glanced at him and had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
"Where's Xiaocao?" Ai San An asked straightforwardly.
"She went out. I say, can you not come here in the future? Are you here to study? You know very well what you're doing here in the name of studying. But I'm telling you, don't have any ideas about Ai Cao. Hmph, you don't have a chance! "
In Gu Dong's eyes, Ai San An was really like a fly. He did not do anything evil or hateful, but he came over every few days to annoy him.
"It's not up to you to say whether I have a chance or not!" Ai San An looked at Gu Dong. His young and immature face was pale with stubbornness. He looked seriously at Gu Dong and said, "Although you're a hero now, this glory is only temporary. I'm in a technical secondary school. After I graduate, I'll be assigned a job. Ai Cao can eat public food if he works for me."
Fortunately, because of the halo of a 'hero', there were too many people looking at Gu Dong every day. The hospital moved him to a separate room. Otherwise, if Ai San An's words were heard by a gossipy woman, who knew what would happen.
"Where do you get your confidence from? You've become stupid from studying. "Gu Dong looked at Ai San An and felt that this person was crazy.
"Hmph, who are you calling stupid from studying? You're the stupid one. You didn't even finish middle school. You're almost illiterate. You're worse than Ai Cao. I'm in a technical secondary school. You're even worse. Ai Cao can live in the county if she works for me. If she works for you, she can only work in the mud in the village for the rest of her life. "
Ai San An became more and more proud as he spoke, "You'll be a bumpkin for the rest of your life. You can't read or write. You'll never have a bright future! Ai Cao can only suffer if she works for you. If she works for me, she won't have to work when I earn money! "
Looking at Ai San An's proud face, Gu Dong wanted to punch him. But because of his body's inconvenience, his mind became clearer.
In fact, part of what Ai San An said was true.
Based on the current situation, he was uneducated. Now, he could only farm in the village. The mugwort followed him and he had to work hard every day.
"Ha, I'm right. You don't know anything. You can only work in the mud for the rest of your life. Look at Ai Cao. She shouldn't be doing this work. If you care about her, you shouldn't tie her up. "
As time passed, not only did Ai Cao's appearance change, but her temperament also gradually changed. Ai San An found that every time he saw Ai Cao, he felt that Ai Cao had changed. He seemed to like her even more.
Some people's love can't be said to be superficial. But after all, it starts with color.
"Look at the women in the city. Then look at the women in the village. Even the nurses who work in the hospital all day are prettier than Zhang Kuan's baby daughter, Zhang Xianglan. If you stay in the village for a long time, other than working in the wind and rain under the sun, all you do is gossip. In the future, even if you don't become like my mother and grandmother, you will be like the leader's wife. You won't be much better than them. "
Gu Dong looked at Ai San An, who said the whole sentence calmly. He raised his eyebrows and looked at him in shock. It was as if he had never met him before.
Did Ai San An really say this?
"Don't look at me like that. I didn't read books for nothing. I know what you think of me. Many people in the village said that I have become stupid. I don't even recognize my roots. Haha, it's not that I don't recognize them. It's just that the more I read and see, the more I despise the ignorance and backwardness of the village. "
"You can say that I have no conscience or that I forget my roots. But I don't want to go back and become like my father. I admit that I am chasing Ai Cao now because she has become beautiful. But she should have been mine. She won't have a good life in the village with you. Think about it. "
After Ai San An finished speaking, he didn't pretend to help with the things in the room like he did the previous few times. Instead, he took his pen and study book and left.
Gu Dong stopped going to school a long time ago. He worried about making a living all day. Although he grew up in the same village, he didn't have much contact with Ai San An. And because of some reasons, he didn't have a good impression of the Ai family.
In addition, in the few contacts he had with Ai San An, he didn't have a good impression of him. So Gu Dong's impression of him was similar to most people in the village. But today, Gu Dong seemed to have gotten to know this person again. Ai San An was selfish, but some of his words didn't seem to be wrong from his own point of view.
Ai San An's expression was calm. He wasn't very emotional. He expressed his thoughts and intentions clearly. He still looked thin and sick, but it was this kind of Ai San An that made Gu Dong anxious and feel a little uneasy.
