Chapter 005 Luck

It’s just such a big place at home, it’s not that easy to hide things.

Cao Yun hid the booklet in the cracks between the wooden boxes with miscellaneous items in the outer room and the walls. He also blocked it with a roll of old newspapers outside, thinking that he was hiding it very tightly.

Before dinner that day, Guo Zhien secretly stole the booklet and took advantage of Cao Yun and Cao Peiyu's time to pay attention to them while they were cooking. They pulled Chunyang and Zhili to hide in the backyard and looked around.

"It turns out that I taught people how to give birth, it's boring," Chunyang said without interest after looking through a few pages.

"Why don't you think you know how to give birth?" Guo Zhien disagreed with her words, and said while flipping through the book: "In the past, my father always told us that books are the most precious things in the world because they can answer all kinds of questions. Although we know how to give birth to a baby is useless, we will definitely be able to use it in the future. It will be a good idea to take a look at it."

Chunyang thought about it, but he actually felt that Zhien’s words made a lot of sense, and then lowered his head and looked at it.

After reading it, Guo Zhien stuffed the booklet back, but no one at home noticed it.

Books are the most precious thing in the world, and Chunyang also agrees with this. She is very precious to the old books brought back by Guo Zhien, and she even wraps them with old newspapers. When reading them, she is cautious about turning the pages of the book.

However, the thing she was a treasure was actually burned by Cao Yun.

That day, Guo Zhien went to the town to pick up rags. Chunyang and Zhili both came over to see what he had picked up. After confirming that he only picked up a sack of plastic bottles this time, Chunyang went to the outer room to help Cao Yun cook. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the room, he saw Cao Yun pulling a book and filling it into the stove pit.

Chunyang rushed over and grabbed half of the book that had not been burned yet, and wanted to reach into the stove to pick up the half of the book that was burning.

Fortunately, Cao Yun reacted quickly and grabbed her in time, threw her to the ground with a swing of his hand, and asked in surprise: "What are you doing? Don't want your hand?"

"Book, my book!" Chunyang said angrily: "Why are you burning my book? If you want to light the fire, burn newspapers. If not, don't you still have birch bark and pine cone outside? Why do you want to burn my book!"

Their movement was a bit loud, which led to Cao Peiyu and Guo Zhien.

Cao Peiyu helped Chunyang up and asked her if she had anything to do. Chunyang didn't answer and just looked at Cao Yun stubbornly.

Before Cao Yun could answer, Zhien spoke first, "This is our rule. Except for those books that pass by Minglu, other books must be burned after reading them and cannot be kept."

How could normal people have such rules? Also, what is a book that crosses Minglu? What is a book that goes beyond Minglu?

Just when Chunyang was still asking questions, Zhien pulled her out and the two of them squatted outside the yard and talked about this.

"Do you know why my dad came here?" Zhien asked her.

Chunyang heard from the villagers that it seemed that Guo Houze had hidden things that should not have been hidden at home when he was in the city. After someone took it out, his wife took her children to divorce him, and he was sent here to renovate. Later, he said that he had made no mistakes and could go back to the city. He had already had a child with Cao Peiyu, so he gave up the opportunity to return to the city and stayed in Dongshan Village.

"My dad didn't hide anything that was great. There were only a few books, a few foreign documents that they couldn't understand, so they thought they had a shocking secret. Those people falsely accused my dad of being guilty, and my dad didn't even have a chance to defend himself. Later, my dad set a rule for his family that reading books is OK, but not read in front of others. The books they read must be destroyed and cannot be kept. My dad said that it is not safe to hide anywhere in the book, and it is safest to keep the things in the book in mind." Guo Zhien sighed and explained.

After listening to it, Chunyang didn't speak for a long time.

She seemed to understand why the children of the Guo family secretly read and read at home and did not go to school. They just wanted outsiders to think that they couldn't read a big word.

Chunyang didn't know if they were doing this right, but now she was in the Guo family and had a bite of food from the Guo family, so she naturally had to follow the rules of the Guo family.

After a long time, she said depressedly: "I was wrong. I will apologize to my elder sister in a while. I will read the remaining books quickly, and I will burn it myself after reading them."

Guo Zhien, who looks like a big brother, rubbed her hair, then withdrew her hand before she glared at her, and smiled and said, "The little girl has a big temper. Next week, my elder sister will go to your house. She will stay at your house for a day or two and then go into the mountain with your elder brother. She feels very uncomfortable. When you turn around, say more good things to her to make her happy."

Chunyang nodded and responded, Zhien said again: "It is not easy to walk out when the snow is heavy. I have to go out to pick up some more things before the heavy snow. My mother can do cooking. As long as you take good care of Zhili, don't let him run out."

Chunyang responded again, Zhien stretched out his hand to hook her, but Chunyang disliked him and still hooked him.

Before Cao Yun went to the Li family, Zhienke prepared a lot of things for her, many of which were fresh things that Chunyang had never seen before.

First, there was a big red box with octagonal and anti-wearing steel angles on the surface of the red cloth. The lining and zipper inside were broken. You can use it by changing the lining and repairing the zipper. Cao Yun used this big red box when he got married.

"This box looks so beautiful. I have never seen such a box in our village." Chunyang sighed when he saw the box for the first time.

Everyone was quite satisfied, but Guo Zhien himself was not satisfied.

"Marriage must be paired together, and it would be great if there were two boxes. I'll go and check it out tomorrow, maybe I'll pick up another one if I'm lucky." Guo Zhien said.

I don’t know if he is lucky or bad, so I went out and didn’t pick up the big red box when I came back, so I picked up a radio!

It's a big radio, with two slots that can hold tapes on it, the middle is a button to change the channel, and the bottom is a piano that can be pulled out and pushed back.

"This thing needs to be powered on before it can be used? We don't have power in our house, and I don't know if it can still ring. It's useless if you pick it up." Cao Peiyu said with great pleasure.

Obviously, Guo Zhien thought about this question when he was picking up the radio and said happily: "I will go to the village to find Erbao in a while and borrow electricity from him. He is very strict and I don't let him say it, he will definitely not say it. Then the elder sister takes the radio to the Li family and they don't know how it came."

Erbao is a big name, and his nickname is Erhan. As his name is, he is a bit stupid and silly. Everyone in the village likes to make fun of him.

The second baby is much older than Chunyang, so he can't play together and is not very familiar with each other.

It is quite surprising that Guo Zhien and Erbao have a good relationship. The most urgent task is to try whether the radio is easy to use, so Chunyang didn't ask too much.

Not surprisingly, the radio was broken and there was no reaction when plugging in.

Cao Peiyu and Cao Yun's meanings are not used, but it's fine if Cao Yun doesn't bring big items and only brings bedding or something to the Li family.

Chunyang and Guo Zhien both thought it was a pity to forget it, maybe they could do it by tinkering with it.

They and Guo Zhili went to Erbao's house to borrow an electric power repair radio.

It is said that it is a repair, but it is actually just a random trick. After disassembling it, blow it, move it, plug it in and try again.

Chunyang, who was really excited, was so angry that he took a photo of the radio in anger. Unexpectedly, he directly took a photo of Yin'er. The two of them looked at each other and smiled happily.

"The blind cat met a dead mouse, this matter is a mess. I will install the back cover now. Zhili must be hungry after so long..."
