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

Chapter 74 Peach Blossom Hairpin

Gu Ruonan has always been close to Gu Jingcheng, and was very happy to be able to ride home with him in a bullock cart.

"I won't be able to go back until evening. There are still some things waiting for me to take care of in the academy, so you can go first."

Gu Jingcheng shook his head, looking at the food in the bowl, he had no desire to eat at all.

Yin's and Chen's are also happy about the fact that their uncle is going back suddenly.

After all, when Mrs. Li went out, she told them to bring some food to Gu Jingcheng. Now that he wants to go back, there is no need to do anything extra.

One more person went home to eat, and they bought more when they were shopping in the city.

Su Xiaomu likes to eat pork head meat, so they wanted a whole pig's head.

Because they bought a lot, the boss originally wanted to send a pair of pigs into the water for them.

But the thing was dirty and difficult to cook. After bargaining with the boss, Yin got a few ribs and took them back to stew the soup.

Mrs. Li didn't say anything after knowing that Gu Jingcheng was coming back.

She originally planned to let her precious son come back to celebrate together, but if she was not worried about affecting his study, she would have asked Yin Shi and the others to call him early in the morning.

Now that he has come back by himself, she is of course happy in her heart.

The more times Jingcheng goes home, the more times he can develop a relationship with Xiaomu.

In fact, she is like a mirror in her heart.

Knowing that their husband and wife have no relationship until now, and if they only rely on the relationship between husband and wife and mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they can't tie Su Xiaomu who has his own ideas in his heart.

On the other hand, Gu Jingcheng had no idea that his mother was thinking about his childbirth again, so he took a leave of absence from the academy because of an urgent matter at home, and went straight home.

But after seeing a jewelry shop at the entrance of the academy, he stopped for no reason.

For Su Xiaomu's birthday, he should give her a gift.

So he went in to pick out gifts, and he saw the peach hairpin on the shelf at a glance.

"The peach blossoms are shining brightly, and the son returns home, suitable for his family. The young master looks so young, so he must have married his wife not long ago, right? For the newlyweds, the peach hairpin from our family is the most suitable gift, my son. Want to see it?"

As soon as the owner of the jewelry shop saw the clothes Gu Jingcheng was wearing, he knew that he was not an ordinary person, so he tried his best to sell to him.

"My lord, don't think I'm too talkative, this young couple just got married and they need to give each other more gifts to better connect with each other.

You said that you gave your wife a hairpin, and then put it on her hair in person, doesn't it mean that you are raising your eyebrows? "

Su Xiaomu didn't know about Gu Jingcheng's return.

She had been lying on the bed in the morning, and when the two sister-in-laws came back at noon, Li arranged to take a few children to the mountain to play.

She didn't go home for half a day, so she was quite surprised to see Gu Jingcheng talking to Mr. Gu in the yard when she came back to eat.

"Why is Mr. Xianggong back? Today is not the day for you to practice Mu. But something happened in the academy and you want to come back to discuss with us?"

Su Xiaomu reflexively acted as a harmonious couple with Gu Jingcheng in front of others, and she walked beside him affectionately to dust off his clothes.

A little anxiety was added to a pretty face: "If I knew that my husband and I were coming back, I should have asked the two sisters-in-law to wait for you. A family rides together in a car, after all, it is more at ease than someone else's car."

When Mr. Gu saw his little daughter-in-law coming, he wanted to go back to the house, but at first he heard that what she said made sense, so he also echoed a few words.

"Xiaomu is right, let them wait for you next time you come back, it won't take much time."

"My son knows, and I will remember to tell my sister-in-law next time."

Seeing the worry on her face that was about to overflow, his eyes became more and more complicated.

She was worried about him, and he should be happy.

But he knew that her happiness was just for show, and there was actually no emotion between the two of them.

Thinking about this, Gu Jingcheng's heart sank directly.

Mrs. Li invited her eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter-in-law to cook a table of dishes.

She originally wanted to hold a big party for Su Xiaomu's birthday, and when she heard that her precious son was back, she waved her hand, added several meat dishes, and moved the fine wine and home brew that Mr. Gu had kept at the bottom of the box. come out.

"Xiao Mu, try it quickly, this wine is our homemade sorghum wine.

It was made when I married your father-in-law. If you count the age, it is older than your elder brother. "

Mrs. Li was happy, when she poured the wine, she didn't care about old man Gu's distressed face that was about to distort.

She cheerfully pulled Su Xiaomu, looked at the other two daughters-in-law and talked.

"Their old Gu's family is really blessed to be able to marry such a sensible daughter-in-law as the three of you, old family, don't blame your mother for talking too much.

Although I always blame you for not being able to give me a precious grandson, I also love Ruotong and Ruonan, and I have never wronged them. "

"I know mother, I didn't blame you. I didn't pass on the family line to my husband. I know it's all my own fault."

Probably when it came to the sad place, the sister-in-law sobbed and wiped her tears.

One of them was sadder than the other, and one was sadder than the other looked.

It's not right to let Su Xiaomu, the birthday star, eat with chopsticks for a while, and it's not right to bring wine to be sad with them.

She looked left and right at a loss, and then fixed her eyes on Gu Jingcheng for help.

Oh my god, come out and save her!
Now it's really embarrassing, embarrassing, so embarrassing that her toes are going to dig the floor!
Of course Gu Jingcheng noticed her gaze, he put down his chopsticks and coughed twice, "I came back early today because I have something to tell my parents."

"What's the matter, Jingcheng?"

As soon as she heard the voice of her precious son, Li Shi came back to her senses and looked at him lovingly, "But you don't have enough money in the academy?"

"No." Gu Jingcheng almost choked, "Master Song Shan of the academy recommended me to a famous teacher, and he told me to go to Fucheng half a month earlier to prepare for the government examination.

I came back this time just to tell my parents that if there is no accident, I will invite someone to study in half a month. "

This was a rare opportunity for him, and Gu Jingcheng had already made up his mind to seize it.

"Oh! The mountain head of your academy is really a good person. He gave you such a good opportunity in Jingcheng. When you come back from Fucheng after taking the exam, our family should thank you mountain head together. !"

When Li heard the good news, she felt that her decision to celebrate with wine today was the right one.

She was overjoyed and poured a glass of wine for each person on the table, telling them to stand up and congratulate Gu Jingcheng.

And he responded one by one.

As soon as such good news came out, everyone at the dinner table congratulated Gu Jingcheng on his bright future.

Su Xiaomu still gnawed on the pig's feet contentedly.

After eating, Mrs. Li took Gu Jingcheng and Su Xiaomu into the house. She packed the two sister-in-laws to wash the dishes, and then took out a bag of silver from the box under her bed and handed it to Gu Jingcheng.

At this moment, Mrs. Li's mood is no longer as happy as before.

Instead, she looked at her precious son with worry and distress and said: "Although it is not the first time you have traveled far, mother is still worried that you will suffer hardships outside.

My son travels thousands of miles and my mother is worried. This time you must take Xiaomu with you when you go out. With her by your side to take care of you all the time, your father and I will not worry about you when we are at home. "
