Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Chapter 217 What the Hell Are You All Looking Like

"What are you standing there for? Come in." Uncle Wang saw Xuyuan stopped where he was and waved his hands and called out to Xuyuan.

"Oh."

This is better. We can come all at once so we don’t have to visit everyone one by one.

The fire in the room was burning brightly, and the cold air from outside was instantly dispelled. There were dried fruit snacks on the table, and everyone sat around the long table.

After greeting everyone present, the children dispersed to play elsewhere. Even Chen Biyun followed Xu Zhi to Li Juanhua's room.

"Come over here and sit down with me, girl."

Uncle Wang waved at Xu Yuan and pulled him to sit in the empty seat next to him, "Qinghan, sit a little closer."

Gu Qinghan nodded and moved the stool a little to the right to make room for Xu Yuan.

After Xu Yuan sat down, everyone started chatting about family matters.

"Oh, right, let's make a wish. The last time we went to the county town, we made an agreement with Lao Niu that we would go to the county town on the fifth day of the New Year and then go to Chunyang City."

Uncle Wang held a handful of melon seeds in one hand and cracked them while making a wish.

"Chunyang City?"

Uncle Liu replied: "Yes, your grandfather Niu's relatives are in Chunyang City."

Chunyang City was the county town that people passed by on the way to escape famine. It was in two directions from Lin'an County Town, and the distance between them was neither far nor near. At that time, everyone's energy was not abundant, so it took seven days to reach Lin'an County Town. Now everyone has enough food, so it may take three or four days to get there.

"Well, how many people are we going to go this time?"

Xu Yuan thought that since Uncle Wang discussed this with him, he must have wanted to take him with him. But since he was going to be gone for so many days, he was still a little worried about Xu Zhi and the others.

"Yuan girl, do you agree to go with us?" Uncle Liu was very happy to hear Xu Yuan ask this.

"I······"

"Yuan girl, you don't have to worry about Xiaozhi and the others. Your uncle Zhushan is here, so you don't have to worry."

"If you don't want to go with us, we won't force you."

Uncle Wang saw that Xu Yuan was a little worried and said kindly.

"I've made up my mind. I'll go with you."

Xu Qing and Aunt Li said, "Don't worry, Xiaoyuan. We are here to help you take care of Xiaoduo and the others."

"Thank you, aunties." Xu Yuan nodded and moved the stool to the right. He didn't know if it was his illusion, why did Gu Qinghan stand so close to him.

"We'll drive two cars this time. Old Liu, Old Gu and I will go together. Qinghan and Junyong will also go. And with Yuan, we'll be all there."

Chen Dafu said at the right time: "Add me in."

Qiu Chunfen pulled at his sleeve and whispered, "Why are you joining in the fun?"

"What do you mean by joining in the fun? I also want to see if there are any suitable piglets to buy. We also want to raise a pig at home."

Uncle Wang laughed: "Okay, then we have to catch another car."

Chen Dafu choked: "Lao Wang, what do you mean? Why should I add a car if I want to go?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

"You don't know your own condition, and I told you not to sit all day." Qiu Chunfen patted Chen Dafu's big belly.

"I'm not that fat." Chen Dafu grumbled when being ridiculed by his wife.

"Then we have to prepare some..." Several people continued to discuss what to bring.

"Xuyuan, why did you kick me?" Li Junhan, who was sitting opposite Xuyuan, exclaimed when he was kicked unexpectedly.

"Sorry, I... sat for a long time and stretched my legs, and didn't notice your feet." Xu Yuan smiled awkwardly, quickly retracted his feet, and then struggled to free his hand from the grasping hand, and then heard a chuckle coming from the side.

Xu Yuan took advantage of everyone's inattention and kicked Gu Qinghan directly.

Gu Qinghan realized Xu Yuan's intention and quickly dodged. Xu Yuan glared at Gu Qinghan, but in order not to attract everyone's attention, he had to give up.

"This is for you. Don't be angry." Gu Qinghan moved closer and put the peeled melon seeds in his hand on the wooden plate in front of Xu Yuan.

"Who cares? Don't touch me." Xu Yuan pushed the fruit plate with melon seeds in front of Gu Qinghan.

"What's wrong?" Uncle Wang, who was chatting happily, stopped talking when he heard Li Junyong's exclamation and looked at Li Junyong and Xu Yuan. The others also looked over.

"It's nothing. My feet are a little numb from sitting for too long. You guys chat, I'll go see Xiaoduo and the others." Xu Yuan stood up and walked towards the small room at the back where the group of children were playing.

Gu Qinghan looked at Xu Yuan who walked out the door and stood up as well.

"Qinghan, where are you going?" Xu Qing looked at Gu Qinghan.

"Mother, it's a bit stuffy in here, I'm going outside to get some fresh air."

"Mom and Dad, I'm going out with Qinghan to get some fresh air." Li Junyong saw that Gu Qinghan had gone out, so he was the only one left here. It was really boring to listen to these elders chatting about some trivial topics, so he followed Gu Qinghan out the door.

······

"One against five!"

"Four sixes, I explode!"

Gu Qinghan and Li Junyong walked to the door of the small room, and many loud voices, including Gu Qingming's, were heard from inside.

"What's going on in there? It sounds like it's very lively." Li Junyong tilted his ear and listened to the noise inside the door.

"Want to know? Just push the door open and you'll know." Gu Qinghan raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Just open the door and come in." Liu Yuelai's voice came from inside.

"Hahaha, it's my turn to draw you."

"Wow, I won, I finally won, hahahaha... uh"

Gu Qingming's laughter stopped abruptly, and Gu Qinghan and Li Junyong, who followed in, stared at each other.

"Hahahaha, what are you all wearing? It's so funny." Li Junyong saw that the faces of several children inside were covered with charcoal, which looked very funny.

When Gu Qinghan saw it, he couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Qingming was embarrassed by his elder brother and quickly wiped it with his hand.

"A Ming, you broke the rules and cannot wipe it. Pay me!" Daquan acted as a supervisor and shouted loudly when he saw Gu Qingming wiping his face.

"No, I just feel a little itchy on my face." Hearing this, Gu Qingming quickly patted his face with his hand, then put it down, "Look, my face is still dirty, I didn't break the rules."

"It's useless even if you wipe it. It will only get dirtier." Gu Qinghan stated the fact with a smile.

"What are you playing? Why are they all so black? Haha..." Li Junyong looked at the children present. There was more or less no white spot on their faces. He was very curious.

"This is poker. My eldest sister taught us to play it." Guozi slid the cards on the table with his hand and then put them away.

"Then where is your elder sister?" Gu Qinghan thought Xu Yuan would be here.

"What are you looking for me for?"
