173 What I Picked Up Is Mine

The task of helping to carry the luggage was handed to the coachman. Gu Qingxue and Nanny Sheng helped Madam Qi into the house.

Madam Qi could not leave Nanny Sheng’s care, so Gu Qingxue gave the west wing room that she used to sleep in to the two of them. In the future, she would sleep in the east wing room with her three children.

She had not returned to the courtyard house for almost a month. There was a thick layer of snow in the courtyard house, and the furniture in the house was covered with dust.

Taking advantage of the fact that the three children had not returned yet, Gu Qingxue let Madam Qi rest first. She cleaned the snow quickly and cleaned the house. Then, she went to the kitchen to cook.

At the same time, the three children also called out their friends in the village and gave them the gifts that they had brought from Jing City.

The friends in the village gathered under the crooked tree at the entrance of the village and watched the three children display the rare toys they had brought from the capital city with curiosity.

“Xiaohua, this is the velvet flower I’m giving you. My God-grandfather and god-grandmother gave it to my mother. I specially asked my mother for it and give it to you.” Lingbao giggled as she handed a light pink velvet flower in the shape of a peach blossom to Zhou Xiaohua.

Zhou Xiaohua stretched out her frozen red hand and let out a breath of hot air. She said in surprise, “This is too beautiful. How can there be peach blossoms in winter? Lingbao, you’re so nice!”

“I also brought gifts for you guys!” Dumby puffed out his chest and held cuju in his hand. “This is cuju ball. My mother bought it for me. In the future, we can play cuju together!”

Cuju balls were very expensive. The children from a small village like Dafu village had only heard of this item but had never seen it before.

“Brother Lin, your mother is so good to you!” Li Xiaohu looked at Gu Lin enviously.

Gu Lin mentioned Gu Qingxue, and his eyes revealed a look of reliance. “My mother also bought a lot of other fun things for us. We’ll play together in the future. Let’s play cuju today.”

The little boys in the village agreed in unison and quickly followed Gu Lin and Dumby to play cuju. Lingbao and Zhou Xiaohua brought the other girls to look at the velvet flowers and the bracelet together. They were all having a great time.

After playing for a while, Gu Lin accidentally kicked cuju out of the village entrance.

Cuju rolled out of a very long distance in one breath, and Gu Lin quickly chased after it.

However, before Gu Lin could catch up to cuju, Wang Tudou, who had been hiding behind the tree and Peeking, rushed forward and hugged cuju.

“Wang Tudou, why did you snatch our cuju!” Dumby glared at Wang Tudou angrily, “Quickly return cuju to us.”

Gu Lin stopped Dumby, “Second brother, you can’t talk like that. Tudou, we didn’t know you were here. Take Cuju and come play with us.”

Wang Tudou looked at the beautiful cuju ball and immediately put it in his arms, “This is my cuju ball, I won’t let you play with it!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Wang Tudou, what nonsense are you talking about? It’s clearly Brother Lin’s cuju. It’s already good enough that he’s willing to lend it to you, but you still want to snatch it?” Li Xiaohu rolled his eyes at Wang Tudou with disdain.

“Who said it is theirs? What I picked up is mine. If you have the ability, come and snatch it.” Wang Tudou held the cuju ball in his hands and made a face at the few of them.

“Wang Tudou, you are shameless! Xiaohu, let’s go and snatch cuju back!” Dumby was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was about to snatch cuju back.

Gu Lin frowned as he watched this scene. Just as he was thinking of a way, Wang Tudou had already sensed that something was wrong and turned around to run.
