Chapter 31

Zhou Sicheng looked at the graceful Shen Qingli with gloomy eyes, and suddenly a surge of evil fire rose in his heart.

Although he is now a fourteen-year-old body, his soul is already over thirty years old.

After taking a few deep breaths, Zhou Sicheng calmed down.

Shen Qingli didn’t look like she was about to die. She was well taken care of by Zhou Yubai.

Damn it!

Why is the trajectory different from the previous life?

If the other people around him hadn’t changed, he would have thought he was just dreaming!

He originally thought that as long as he waited patiently, things would slowly get back on track. As a result, Zhou Yubai and Shen Qingli actually adopted two children!

He remembered that the two children in his previous life died during these few days, the older one died of poisoning and the younger one died of starvation.

Now, the four people who should have died have become one family!

He kept wondering where the problem lay. After much thought, he felt that the key to all the problems lay with Shen Qingli. As long as Shen Qingli was not dead, there was no reason for Zhou Yubai to be arrested.

The rascal Gou Wa was also rescued by Shen Qingli.

Therefore, Shen Qingli is the crux of the problem.

As long as he gets rid of Shen Qingli, everything will return to normal.

Zhou Yubai will go to work in the brick factory tomorrow.

Go out early and come back late, and the opportunity will come.

Zhou Sicheng looked at the courtyard sinisterly. He wanted to taste this sick beauty Shen Qingli before she died!

The captain’s home.

When Zhou Yubai arrived, the captain was sitting at the door smoking a pipe. Seeing him, he tapped the pipe twice and said, “Zhou family kid, why are you here at this time? What happened?”

“Uncle, my family wants to build a house.” Zhou Yubai said.

When the captain heard that they were talking about building a house, his expression was relieved, “This is a good thing, what can I do to help you?”

“Uncle, my family has more people now, and the original yard is small. I want to buy the residential land at the back.” Zhou Yubai doesn’t like to beat around the bush and speaks directly.

“The land behind your house can be granted to you. It’s too close to the mountain, and no one dares to live there except your family.” The captain said after thinking for a while.

These days, wild boars might come down the mountain at any time. Zhou Yubai can kill a wild boar with his bare hands, so he is not afraid.

Others have no ability to protect themselves and can only stay away.

“I’m going to work at the brick factory tomorrow. Let me go with you to handle the formalities now.” Zhou Yubai said.

He must complete what his wife asks him to do as soon as possible.

“Okay.” The captain walked into the house, “I’ll tell your aunt, and we’ll go to the brigade headquarters.”

“Okay, thank you uncle.” Zhou Yubai took two steps forward and stuffed a box of cigarettes into the captain’s pocket.

He is not talkative, but he understands the ways of the world.

The captain was good to their family, and he remembered this favor.

The captain glanced at Zhou Yubai and said nothing else, which was considered as tacit acceptance of the cigarettes. He would not accept anything from anyone. He had a hunch that Zhou Yubai and Shen Qingli would not be simple people in the future.

As long as this favor can continue, he will definitely not lose out.

Not long after, the team leader and Zhou Yubai went to the team headquarters.

The two met Gu Qichuan on the road.

“Captain.”

“Gu Zhiqing, do you have something to talk to me about?” the captain asked, wondering in his heart why these two people seemed to have made an appointment.

“Well, captain, I’m not used to living with too many people. I would like to ask you for a piece of residential land to build a house.” Gu Qichuan said.

Homestead again?

“Gu Zhiqing, what will you do with your house if you return to the city in the future?” asked the team leader. Gu Qichuan’s background was not simple, and everyone thought that he would definitely return to the city.

“If I go back to the city, the house will be handed over to the team for disposal. It will be considered as my contribution to our team.” Gu Qichuan said.

“It’s OK as long as Gu Zhiqing doesn’t feel like he’s at a disadvantage.” The team leader smiled. This was definitely a good thing for the team. They had a lot of residential land in their village, which was not worth much, but it would cost a lot to build a house.

“Not a loss.” Gu Qichuan smiled.

“Come, let’s go into the brigade headquarters and talk.” The brigade captain walked in front.

Zhou Yubai and Gu Qichuan’s eyes met, and Zhou Yubai walked in first.

“Yubai, I’ll take care of this procedure for you first.” The team leader quickly marked the homestead that Zhou Yubai wanted and wrote the receipt. Zhou Yubai paid the money, took the receipt, and prepared to leave.

“Captain, I also want to live at the foot of the mountain so it’s convenient for chopping wood.” Gu Qichuan said.

Zhou Yubai paused, turned around and looked at Gu Qichuan.

Gu Qichuan met Zhou Yubai’s gaze with a calm expression, as if he really went to live at the foot of the mountain just to make it easier to chop wood.

“Gu Zhiqing, it’s not safe at the foot of the mountain. When there’s a lean season, wild boars will come down the mountain, as will other animals. What will you do if something happens to you alone? There are some places in the village.” said the team leader.

“It’s okay, Captain. I’m good at martial arts and I’m not afraid. I just want to make my life more convenient.” Gu Qichuan insisted.

The captain had no other reason to refuse, so he let Gu Qichuan choose the place himself.

In the end, Gu Qichuan chose a residential plot not far from Zhou Yubai’s home.

Zhou Yubai left with a cold face.

Small courtyard.

Shen Qingli was smoothing Xiao Hei’s fur. Xiao Hei lay obediently at Shen Qingli’s feet, feeling very comfortable.

The atmosphere between the man and the dog is very harmonious.

Zhou Yubai walked in. “Why is Xiao Hei here? What happened?”

“It’s okay. Li Qiushu came. I don’t know what he wanted to do. I didn’t open the door. Xiao Hei came over just in time, and he ran away.” Shen Qingli gave a simple explanation and walked in front of Zhou Yubai.

“What happened? You look so unhappy. The captain refuses to give us a homestead?” Shen Qingli asked with concern.

Actually, it doesn’t matter if they don’t give it to you. They can find a way later.

“No, I gave it to you.” Zhou Yubai handed the bill to Shen Qingli.

“What’s the matter?” Shen Qingli looked at the bill. The place she was given was larger than she expected, a whole acre of land.

Zhou Yubai pursed his lips. For a moment he didn’t know how to tell Shen Qingli about Gu Qichuan.

Shen Qingli has always been honest with Gu Qichuan.

But he still minded.

Shen Qingli stood on tiptoe and hooked her hands around Zhou Yubai’s neck, staring at him with her watery eyes as if trying to seduce his soul.

Zhou Yubai naturally couldn’t bear it. He held Shen Qingli’s waist with one hand and said softly, “Gu Qichuan also applied for a homestead, which is near our home.”

Shen Qingli blinked. What? Gu Qichuan wanted to be their neighbor?

“Are you happy?” Zhou Yubai asked in a muffled voice.

Shen Qingli shook her head, “No!”

At this moment, Shen Qingli’s desire to survive was overwhelming. She could clearly feel the hand on her waist getting tighter and tighter, and a little hot. If she dared to nod, she would not be able to get up to make breakfast the next morning.

“You’re just unhappy because he comes to live with us.” Shen Qingli asked carefully.

Zhou Yubai looked at Shen Qingli, his deep eyes filled with countless emotions.

Shen Qingli kissed his lips soothingly, “We are husband and wife, no one can affect our relationship. If you don’t want others to see our yard, let’s make the wall higher when we build the house.”

“good!”
