Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 74 Bai Yuannian and His Wife Visit

Gu Qingjue reached out and took out a roll of red cloth from the hidden compartment of the bed board.

The cloth was tied with a very thin hemp thread, and it was unknown what was wrapped inside.

Su Yixin asked: "Is this left by my father and mother?"

"Well, sister Ming was afraid of sleeping alone yesterday. She followed us and wet the quilt in the middle of the night. I discovered it by accident. I saw Dad take this by chance before."

As Gu Qingjue said, he untied the hemp rope.

Spread out the red cloth, which contains an extremely worn-out sheepskin roll, and spread it out on the table.

It's a picture, a map as simple as it gets.

A circle here, a dot there, without any markings or explanations.

Just ask, who can understand this?

Gu Qingjue calmed down, rolled up the sheepskin, tied it with the thin hemp rope just now, and handed it to Su Yixin.

"give me?"

Su Yixin was slightly surprised, and didn't immediately reach out to pick it up.

"Well, that's why they came here. Only you have the ability to protect this family now."

Su Yixin looked at Gu Qingjue's firm eyes, and finally reached out to take it.

Although Gu Qingjue didn't say anything, Su Yixin understood that from now on, Gu Qingjue truly regarded her as a family, regardless of each other's family.

Su Yixin couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, this feeling seems to be quite good.

After putting away the sheepskin scroll, Su Yixin told Gu Qingjue what he had learned today, and also expressed his conjecture.

Gu Qingjue said: "Your inference is probably correct. Six years ago, Dad went to the Gu family in Jiangning Mansion, and he came back a month later. I clearly remember that Dad didn't come back from the road at the entrance of the village. Instead, he came back from the back mountain with several wounds on his body. After that, Dad rarely left the village, even if he caught prey and needed to go to the town to exchange money, he would ask Uncle San Yun to take him there."

Su Yixin nodded: "So, dad probably suspected that the Gu family was checking his whereabouts, so he deliberately took a detour."

After going out of the village, it is to avoid exposure.

It's just that they didn't expect that in the end, they found clues and followed them.

"You said Dad is the youngest son of Gu's family. I think Gu Ziyu's age, combined with his appearance, should be your cousin!"

"However, Dad said that the eldest son of the Gu family has two sons. One is 23 years old and his name is Gu Nansheng, and the other is [-] years old and his name is Gu Nanshan. There is no one named Gu Ziyu."

Six years ago, Gu Nansheng was 29 now, and Gu Nanshan was 21.

Gu Nanshan is not the right age, so this Gu Ziyu is very likely to be the eldest son Gu Nansheng mentioned by Gu Mingbo.

After confirming their identities, the two felt more at ease.

The next day, shortly after the family finished breakfast, Bai Yuannian and his wife brought Bai Shiqian to the door.

In addition to the two carriages of Bai Yuannian and his wife and Bai Shiqian, there were five carriages behind them, and they stopped at the door of Gu's house.

The villagers stretched their necks to watch the excitement, but because of the aura of the Bai family, they dared not rush forward.

Luo Shi got out of the carriage and ordered the driver to move things.

"Auntie, there are so many things, you are moving all the shops here!"

"Where is too much, that's all."

Five carriages filled Su Yixin's room to the brim.

Su Yixin was numb immediately.

Forget it, reciprocate, and give back to them in other places in the future.

After the things were moved, there were only two drivers left, and Luo Shi directly let them go back for the other five.

It is really too crowded.

When there were more people, Gu Qingxi went to Uncle Youde's house to borrow two benches, so that he could barely sit on them.

Bai Shiqian's complexion has improved a lot, his body is not as good as before, and he can walk around freely.

So the husband and wife led him to thank him.

When there were only four of them in the Gu family, they thought it was quite big, but with the addition of Li Zhengzhen and Zeng Shengji, it felt a bit crowded.

As soon as Bai Yuannian's family came, the main hall immediately became insufficient.

This house must be expanded, and it must be expanded greatly.

There are guests at home, and Fang's mother is a little nervous. Her specialty is pasta. As for cooking, it is very ordinary.

Afraid of messing up the meal.

But with Luo Shi here, Su Yixin, as the hostess, had to accompany her in the main hall.

Luo Shi's eyes are really sharp, and he can see the situation of the Gu family at a glance. The EQ thief mother raised her head, and smiled and dragged Su Yixin to the kitchen, saying that she would show Su Yixin her hands.

Su Yixin politely said how to get the guests to do it.

Guess what Roche said?
"You call me aunt, so I'm offended by saying that. If you're really embarrassed, I'll cook two dishes for aunt. I just heard from Sister Ming that your cooking skills are better than the chefs outside. Not bad either."

Ever since, Mother Fang became a helper.

Su Yixin and Luo Shi each showed their special abilities, and each cooked twelve dishes.

Those who fly in the sky, those who walk on the ground, and those who swim in the water all live together.

With guests present, Li Zhengzhen and Zeng Shengji restrained themselves a lot and did not fight with chopsticks while serving dishes.

Even so, all the dishes were swept away, and the dishes were so clean that people could be seen.

Su Yixin: "..."

At this moment, her embarrassing toes can dig out three rooms and one living room.

Before Mingming went to the table, she even signaled the two guys to calm down with her eyes, and the two of them also signaled her to rest assured.

She really thought they were sensible.

did not expect……! ! !
Luo Shi laughed and said: "It's all your fault, girl Xin's cooking is so delicious, you see that you are supporting Auntie, come, take me to the lake in front to digest food."

Luo Shi asked her to come out to digest food to ease the embarrassment.

Chatting with each other on the road, it was very pleasant to arrive.

The two stood by the lake, looking back at the Gu family's house about [-] meters above, Luo Shi suddenly said: "Have you bought all the land near the Gu family? If there is land, you can consider expanding the house."

Su Yixin nodded and said, "It's going to start in two days."

Hearing Luo Shi's words now, she was still a little careless, she didn't think about the ownership of the land, and she had to go to the village's Zheng's house later to discuss the matter of the land.

Furthermore, the house had to be doubled in size on the basis of her original idea.

The two walked by the lake for a quarter of an hour before returning, and asked An Lan to make tea. At the end of the appointment, Bai Yuannian and his wife brought Bai Shiqian back to Tongyuan Town.

Seeing that she had time, Su Yixin and Gu Qingjue went to Village Zheng's house.

"You want to buy the land in front of the house?"

"Well, yes. There are more people in the family, and I want to expand a few rooms."

Muramasa stroked his beard and nodded, brought an account book, put his index finger on his mouth, and began to flip through it.

"According to the size you mentioned, each of the four sides needs to be six feet, plus the two mountains behind the house, the money, the total needs..."

Muramasa said, picking up the abacus on the table.

Before starting to dial the beads on the abacus, Gu Qingjue said: "It's 42 taels, 850 four wen."
