The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 335 Sleepover
Gao Mama's face turned ugly when she heard the discussion of the passengers.No matter what her family's girl said, she was also the daughter of the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, how could she be judged by these vulgar people?

Qingdai and Lianxin flinched involuntarily. In the Duke's Mansion, the people they came into contact with were all the wives and girls from rich families, and some girls and women. There is no house that looks after people so unscrupulously. Not used to it.

When Gu Chengyu saw them, he hurriedly greeted them to get into the carriage, and the six carriages set off in such a mighty manner.

"My lord! There is a village in front of us, do we want to stay overnight?" Ming Mo hurried ahead and found a small village in front of him. It was getting dark. If he missed this village, he didn't know if he could make it to the next one. town.

Gu Chengyu raised the curtain and looked at the sky, "Alright, Mingyan, go talk to Miss Yao and Big Brother Sun, let them prepare, and spend the night at the farmhouse tonight."

In fact, if there were no female relatives, they must have rushed to the next market town to stay in a hotel.The woman is delicate, and the carriage cannot be driven too fast, so it was delayed.

After Ming Yan came back to reply, several carriages drove towards the village.

Gu Chengyu observed it in the carriage. This is a small village with a total of more than [-] households. The houses are similar to the original Shangling Village. They are all made of earth bricks and covered with thatch.

It was already past dinner time, and the villagers had all had their meals. They were sitting by a big well at the entrance of the village, and the children were chasing and playing beside the adults. This should be the happiest time of the day.

Before Gu Chengyu and his carriage reached the entrance of the village, the villagers had already seen it.

"Old man Hua, is this a carriage?" An old man in sixty years squinted his eyes at the carriage that was about to arrive at the entrance of the village and asked.

"I look like it! Huh? This is it!" Old Man Hua stretched his neck and looked towards the carriage. He was knowledgeable, of course he had seen a carriage.

"Why are there so many carriages? Whose house did they go to? Whose family has such rich relatives?" The sixtieth old man watched the carriage drive towards the entrance of the village, guessing whose house it was going to.

They are all very poor in the village, and they all know their roots and backgrounds. He really doesn't believe who they are relatives from!
"It can't be a guest, right? We haven't heard of such relatives in our village."

Although it is not far from the official road here, in fact, few people stay overnight.If it is daytime, there is a teahouse not long after walking forward, where there is food and drink, and the next market town is not very far away, so if you hurry, you can reach it before dark.

Therefore, few people come to the village to stay overnight. Besides, their houses are too dilapidated, and people on the road look down on them.

"Oh~ carriage, there is a carriage, bastard, come and see the carriage, there is a carriage coming to the village." A five or six-year-old child shouted, dragging a boy who was younger than him and looked like a mud monkey.

"There really is a carriage!" The man who came back from the field was also looking over there with his farm tools on his shoulders.

The women also chattered about it. There have never been any outsiders in the village. The village is so big. Whose old hen gave birth to eggs, whose dog gave birth to cubs, and whose mother-in-law was scolded by her mother-in-law , every village knows it clearly.

It's obviously a new thing that the carriage is here, and it's not busy at the moment, women always like to gossip.

Ming Mo drove the carriage to the entrance of the village, stopped the carriage quickly, and asked, "Old man, we want to spend the night in the village. Is there a house with many houses in the village?"

Old man Hua quickly stood up, his eyes were bright!The person sitting on the shaft of the carriage must be a servant, and even the servants are wearing silk and satin, so the people in the carriage must be more wealthy.

"How many people do you have here?" Looking at the six carriages, there must be a lot of people, and no one in their village has such a big house.

"A total of 18 people, do you have a place?" Ming Mo glanced at the village, most of the houses were dilapidated, and he didn't know that the girl behind could not get used to living there.

Old Man Hua frowned, "Then we can only go to the village chief's house to see, but the village chief's house must not fit in."

Unexpectedly, so many people came at once. Old man Hua thought in his heart that his family also has four rooms, and the eldest son, daughter-in-law and grandson of the family occupy one room, and there are two rooms left.

This is a wealthy family, whoever lives in the house, should leave money for staying overnight when they leave.If you meet someone who is generous, maybe you can give me one or two taels.

How could he not get involved in such a good thing?It's just that his house can't accommodate so many people, so it's better to let some of them go to the village head's house. The house of the village head's house is better than theirs, and the house is not small. It should be okay to live with seven or eight people.

Ming Mo turned around and asked Gu Chengyu, "My lord! There are so many of us, the whole family can't fit in, so why don't we go to the village chief's house he mentioned?"

Gu Chengyu pondered for a moment, it was going to be dark, and it seemed that there would be no villages in this area of ​​a hundred li.

"Then go to the village chief's house to have a look!"

When old man Hua heard it, sure enough, there must be a noble person in this carriage, but the voice sounded like a boy.

Sun Xian and Ye Zhiqiu also opened the curtain at this time, looked outside, "Chengyu! Can we not fit so many people?"

"I don't know yet, I have to go to the village chief's house that the old man said." Gu Chengyu didn't know what to do. The most important thing was that there were still female relatives here.

Old man Hua was a little surprised when he saw Sun Xian and the others in the carriage from the raised curtain, why did he look so young?They are all boys!
Gao Mama on the carriage in the middle listened to what was said before, and said to Yao Mengxian next to her, "Girl, this village doesn't look very big, and the houses are also very dilapidated. Can we find a place to live?"

Although her girl is not favored in the mansion, she has never lived in such a place!

Yao Mengxian was only worried about whether or not she would be able to live. As for whether the house was broken or not, she could only make do with it when she was away from home.Just this bit of suffering is nothing compared to the dream.

"Going out, even if you want to be extravagant, it won't work, and we can only make do with it." Lian Xin was quite open-minded, anyway, she felt that the place where benefactor was was always safe.

Besides, Mr. Gu seems to be a proper person, so he shouldn't let her girl suffer too much grievance.

Qing Dai was staring at the carriage in front of her in a daze just now, and only now she came back to her senses when she heard voices in the carriage.

"The house here is indeed a bit dilapidated, but I don't know if the house in the village head's house is better."

Old Man Hua led the way, and the carriage continued on its way.Followed by the watching villagers, there are children chasing after.After walking for a long time, I arrived at the so-called village head's house.

"Village Chief, someone has come to stay overnight!" Old man Hua is not very old, but he looks old.Therefore, at this moment he shouted with full of air.

The house of the village head looks like the best in the village.Although it is a mud brick house, it is covered with tiles.
