After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Chapter 52 Gu Jingcheng is Useless
After Zhou Lin finished eating, he checked out and left. Gu Jingcheng sat in his seat and waited for them to close the shop.

He didn't eat or order anything new, but he always occupied that seat, and the guests who came in and out couldn't help but look sideways at him.

Some students in the academy recognized him, and some had a good relationship and wanted to go up to say hello, but after seeing Gu Jingcheng's ugly face, they lost their minds.

There is no way, how can a hot face stick to a cold butt, let alone a cold butt that is so cold that it is cold to death.

evening.

Under Su Xiaomu's order, Gu Ruotong served a bowl of broth to pad Gu Jingcheng's stomach, and Yin Shi also came out of the kitchen to help clean up the shop at this time.

"Third Uncle hasn't returned to the academy so late, is there something we want us to bring back to Mother?"

Yin Shi has been doing business outside for a long time, and she is not as afraid of Gu Jingcheng as before. She mustered up the courage to talk to him, and she is no longer as cautious as before.

"If there is something we want to bring back..."

"This time I want to go back with you, there are some things I have to talk to my mother face to face to make it clear."

Although Gu Jingcheng had always been indifferent to the Yin family, he still had some respect.

Even though it was pitifully small, Yin couldn't tell.

But when she heard that Gu Jingcheng was going home with them, she was immediately overjoyed.

"Okay, the third uncle will be very good if he wants to go back with us. I'll chop up two catties of meat later. We'll have something good to eat tonight."

Excited, Yin hurriedly wiped the water stains on her apron.

She happily went out to get pork head meat, and bought some Gu Jingcheng's favorite food to take home.

On the way back, because there was one more Gu Jingcheng, Su Xiaomu and the others no longer pushed the cart to walk like before. They sat in the bullock cart, and Yin pushed Su Xiaomu to sit next to Gu Jingcheng.

"Look at how good you two are, Xiaomu, what mother said is right, you and third uncle just want to cultivate and cultivate your relationship more, you two look good-looking as a woman, and as handsome as a man, why don't you have more children..."

"Sister-in-law, I'm a little tired, and my husband also said that he hurt a lot by studying in the academy today."

It was very embarrassing for Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng to sit next to each other like this.

She really didn't want to hear Yin's words that the two of them were a good match, and that she had to give him more children.

She hadn't looked at Gu Jingcheng since she got on the bullock cart today, and he didn't speak.

Yin's eyes flicked between the two of them, and after watching for a while, she was sure that they really didn't have any intention of chatting, and then she calmed down.

Along the way, I could only hear the rattling sound of the cow's hooves stepping on the mud.

Gu Jingcheng stared at the road back to the village and narrowed his eyes slightly.

For some reason, he always had the feeling that Su Xiaomu was using him as a shield.

He suddenly began to wonder whether what she said for her own good and for the good of Gu's family were as true as she said?

When they got home, Mr. Gu and the others had just arrived home not long ago.

Mrs. Li was sitting in the yard taking care of a few children. As soon as she saw Gu Jingcheng came back, she immediately came forward with excitement, and pulled Gu Jingcheng to look left and right.

She was overjoyed, and her voice was trembling: "Isn't it time for Xiumu? Why did you come back so suddenly? The master of the academy didn't say anything about you, did he?"

"No." Gu Jingcheng shook his head slightly, "I forgot to bring something, so I asked for leave and came back to pick it up, and I have to go back tomorrow morning."

He wanted to go home on a temporary basis, and Zhou Lin was bothered to sue for the academy leave.

However, he has always had a good relationship with his masters, so it is not so difficult to approve this leave.

"Okay, even though I came back to get things, I might be happy to let Mother see your mother more.

It just so happens that your second sister-in-law is still busy in the kitchen, so mother will tell her that you are back and ask her to make more hot dishes, so that we can have a good time together as a family. "

Li Shi looked at Gu Jingcheng with distressed eyes.

Seeing their mother and child like this, Su Xiaomu couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart.

Tsk, how arrogant did she think he was?

While looking down on them making money, they also want to eat the meat they bought with money.

During the meal, Su Xiaomu didn't speak the whole time.

She honestly grilled the rice, and Mrs. Chen added two meat dishes to them because of Gu Jingcheng's sudden return.

Stir-fried pork belly with chili and scrambled eggs with wild vegetables, Su Xiaomu really enjoyed eating it.

She's had a tiring day and now she deserves this good meal!
"The next time you forget something at home, just tell your wife and ask her to take it to the academy for you. You said it's too much trouble for you to go back and forth, even if you take a bullock cart, it's more or less panicky."

Li's distressedly picked up a big piece of meat for Gu Jingcheng, and she looked at Chen with some pity.

"If I had known that Jingcheng was coming back, I would have killed a chicken and stewed it for him to make up for. Look at the second family, has Jingcheng lost a lot of weight compared to the last time he came back?"

"Yeah, it must be because Uncle San has been studying too hard these days, how about this, I'll kill the chicken tonight, and make soup early tomorrow, and ask Uncle San to take it to the academy to drink."

Chen knew that Li loved Gu Jingcheng, so she followed her words.

It is impossible for Gu Jingcheng to take a whole chicken to the academy, maybe they can take this opportunity to share a piece of chicken with each other, no matter how bad it is, they can drink some chicken soup and try it out.

"Mother is right, the third child studies very hard, last time I met Lao Deng from the next village in the field with my father.

He said that his nephew was also in the academy, but he didn't take much rest from morning till night. "

While digging into the rice, Gu Hai squeezed into the topic: "Yesterday, I discussed with my father to give Jingcheng some more money so that he can eat whatever he wants in the city. Don't wrong yourself just to save money."

The Gu family, you and I think about Gu Jingcheng's study, and Su Xiaomu feels uncomfortable listening to it.

She and her sister-in-law went out early and returned late to earn money for the family, and they never heard of them killing a chicken to make money for them.

Gu Jingcheng has been clamoring for self-sufficiency all day long, so it's not like eating without saying a word at this time.

Why didn't he say that the Gu family should save the money for their own use?

Silently rolling her eyes again, she turned grief and anger into appetite, and swelled up two large bowls of rice in one go.

After the meal, she took Gu Ruotong to settle the accounts. They took care of the family and gossiped, so she didn't participate.

After eating, Gu Jingcheng went to her room with Mrs. Li to talk.

When he was eating just now, he noticed that Su Xiaomu's state was not right, especially when he occasionally raised his head to look at her, he found that there was a bit of teasing and sarcasm in her eyes looking at him.

He was not stupid, of course he understood the meaning contained in her eyes.

He also understood that she wanted to help her get something.

So as soon as he entered the house, he closed the door and said to Li Shi: "Mother, my son wants Su Shi's deed of sale."
