Chapter 30 Meet Liu Chu! Would you like to listen to me?(1/2)

Gu Lu looked at them worriedly: "Grandpa Feng, Grandpa Shen, are you okay?"

"Grandma fainted, but she woke up just after I sent her out of the garden, and is now resting in the car."

Feng Chengzhang was still in shock, and Shen Qitian said: "Didn't you see the snake rushing towards you?!"

Gu Lu was confused: "Didn't the snake burn out in the flower bed? There was a cool breeze..."

Where did the python bite come from?

The two old men stood there motionless from the beginning. Gu Lu thought they were stunned by the scene in front of him, but did they see a python bite them?

"Qian Qian? Will something happen?" Gu Lu turned to look at Su Qian, who was still standing by the flower bed.

Su Qian shook her head: "Just stay in the sun for a while at noon today. The resentment is so strong that it caused them to hallucinate."

Except for the weak Wang Guizhi and Su Qian who were a little worried, Feng Chengzhang and Shen Qitian were not worried either. They were just affected by the evil spirit of resentment.

"Bake more sun, good, good, good, I remember." Feng Chengzhang nodded quickly, and Shen Qitian followed, "I'll bask in the sun with you, it just so happens that the sun is not bad today!"

When he said this, he glanced at Su Qian and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Qian didn't look at him.

Ouch, everything in front of him was telling him the truth. Thinking that just now he was sparing no effort to belittle Su Qian, Shen Qizhen felt that he had lost all his dignity!

I wish there was a hole or tunnel in the ground, so he could just crawl in and hide.

It's a big loss to be embarrassed in front of young people!

It’s all the fault of Lao Liangtou for not stopping him!

At this time, Shen Qitian couldn't remember that Feng Chengzhang had told him to shut up more than once.

Feng Chengzhang glanced at Shen Qitian's secret glance at Su Qian and snorted coldly:

"Shame on you!"

Gu Lu was amused: "It seems that the matters in the garden have been settled. Why don't you two go and rest for a while? Ask the housekeeper to bring some people to deal with the garden."

After speaking, he walked to Su Qian and told Su Qian what he had just seen.

Feng Chengzhang and Shen Qitian felt that what he said was right. The two old men walked out one after another.

Su Qian was about to go into the flower bed to pick up raw nails. When she heard his words, she stopped in her tracks, turned to look at him and said:

"Did you see it?"

She asked such a sentence in a calm tone, which made people feel an inexplicable chill down their backs, as if he had seen something he shouldn't have seen and had been entangled by the python.

Gu Lu nodded: "I seem to be the only one who saw it, what should I do?"

"Didn't you see?"

Su Qian said: "I saw it, but you can also see it, and it's not an illusion. It's quite amazing."

She thought he was just being stared at by a python, so she threw a charm at him. Unexpectedly, it was the python that Gu Lu saw first.

"So it's okay if you see it?" Gu Lu felt something was wrong and asked worriedly.

Su Qian nodded: "It's okay."

After hearing her definite answer, Gu Lu was completely relieved, and then he followed her to pick up raw nails in the flower bed, while jokingly saying:

"Do you only have one very powerful compliment? I've heard you say it several times. Can you use different words next time?"

Su Qian pursed her lips and thought for a while. His words reawakened the memory of when she had just descended the mountain not long ago. She took the last raw nail in her hand, stood up and looked at Gu Lu, and asked in a slightly questioning tone: "Then praise you?" ...Have a good time?"

Gu Lu: "?"

She recalled Bai Linfeng's words at that time and changed to a contemporary way of complimenting:

"Brother, are you having fun?"

Gu Lu almost vomited blood. What did he do that made her think he was a very playful person?

He asked Su Qian cautiously: "What did I say that made you unhappy?"

Could it be that Su Qian took his teasing seriously and blamed him for saying she couldn't speak?

Su Qian shook her head: "Not really."

Gu Lu didn't dare to speak. He just felt that her two-word answer was so concise, so cold, and concise, as if it meant "I don't want to care about you."

He had never seen Su Qian angry. Su Qian's face was often expressionless and her tone was light. Gu Lu couldn't understand her emotions at the moment, so he had to stay silent and follow her.

The two of them each held a large handful of nails and walked out of the garden. Su Qian was a little confused that he suddenly stopped talking, but it was okay not to talk.

She is not good at dealing with people who talk too much, because when there is nothing serious, there seems to be nothing necessary to say.

As soon as the two of them reached the entrance of the garden, they bumped into Feng Chengzhang and Shen Qitian who had returned. Behind them were the housekeeper and the new gardener.

Gu Lu saw the two people and asked quickly:

"Grandpa Shen, why are you back again?"

Feng Chengzhang said: "Come back and bask in the sun!"

Gu Lu: "..." There's no need to go to the garden to bask in the sun, right? I don't usually go to gardens.

They can obviously bask in the sun directly on the small lawn near the main house or on the balcony on the second floor.

Ignoring Gu Lu's strange look, Feng Chengzhang and Shen Qitian were already walking side by side towards the garden. They just wanted to see the snake bone!

Anyway, Su Qian said it was fine.

Shen Qitian walked a little further, then suddenly turned back to Su Qian and said:

"Girl, come to my house as a guest next time, haha..."

It sounded a little embarrassed, a little shy for no reason.

But Shen Qitian is already old, so there is nothing to be shy about. It's just that he made a mistake and felt guilty in front of Su Qian.

Su Qian nodded slightly to him and said:

“Thank you for your love, I will definitely go if I have the chance.”

Shen Qitian smiled and nodded, and after walking away from Feng Chengzhang, he praised:

"This girl is pretty good."

Feng Chengzhang glanced at him and felt that he had no vision. Not only was he good, he was simply too good!

Because of the incident involving Feng Chengzhang and Shen Qitian, Gu Lu suddenly felt that the atmosphere between the two had returned to normal. He immediately looked at Su Qian and asked:

"What should I do with this nail?"

"Is it heavy? Otherwise, let me hold yours."

His clothes were dirty anyway. Seeing Su Qian holding so many iron nails in her arms, Gu Lu was worried that she might accidentally prick him.

Su Qian said: "These nails cannot be thrown away casually, as they will cause trouble to ordinary people who pick them up."

"I plan to take it back to my home. After processing it, I can sell it for money."

"The old lady who taught me how to pick up trash yesterday said that scrap iron can be sold for money. After I finish dealing with the evil spirit and dirt on the nails, these raw nails will be nothing more than scrap iron."

After saying that, Su Qian hesitated for a moment, then looked in the direction of the Feng family's main residence and villa, and said:

"According to the laws of Xiazhou Kingdom, the ownership of the nails seems to belong to the Feng family. If I want to deal with the evil spirit and filth on the nails, I can only be regarded as being entrusted by others and have temporary use rights."

"...If I want to sell these nails for money, I need to turn them into my own property first. In other words, I need to buy these fifty nails from the Feng family?"

Su Qian fell silent as she spoke. She was about to get in the car holding the nail, but stopped and said:

"It seems a little uneconomical."

"Brother, can you help me ask if they want to throw away the waste?"

Gu Lu watched her talking to herself and making inferences based on the rules and laws she knew. He couldn't laugh or cry. How unfamiliar she was to this world.

How unfamiliar are you with the interactions between people that you would use legal terms to reason about all this so rigidly?

Not to mention this nail, even if Su Qian wanted new ones, the Feng family would immediately buy a large batch for her.

What's more, the reward the Feng family prepared for her hasn't been given to her yet. I don't know why she would want to sell scrap metal?

Are you really that poor?

He suddenly remembered the scene where he saw her eating a box lunch in the hospital before, and he couldn't help but soften a little and said:

"If you want these nails, feel free to take them away. Even if they are gold, no one will ask you to get them back."

"These are useless to the Feng family. Can I help you put them in the car?"

"Before you leave, why don't you go visit the Feng family's main residence?"

As he walked forward, he asked Su Qian. Su Qian followed him and shook her head slightly: "No, I'm here to deal with the python in the garden. There's no need for anything else."

Excessive interactions are not a good thing for her, and can even be considered a burden.

The two of them had just walked to the car and put the nails they took out into the trunk of the car. Gu Lu saw the carvings on the nails and remembered that Su Qian said the birth date, so he picked them up curiously and looked at them carefully.

"This is indeed Ye Zi's birthday. The other one feels a bit familiar, as if I know it, but I forgot who it is."

Gu Lu frowned slightly.
