Chapter 588 Good guy

Zhou Banxia smiled but said nothing. In fact, there was no need for her to reply. Gu Baoya immediately went to find her sister-in-law Ma Shan just as Gu Wenxuan said.

The little girl is very clever.

She didn't say that her eldest brother bullied her. After approaching, she smiled at her eldest and second sisters-in-law, saying that it was very cold outside and asked her eldest and second sisters-in-law to accompany her into the house.

The little person's delicate face was about to turn red by the cold wind. Ma Shan had no time to continue her argument with Zhou Banxia.

Holding her son in her arms, she shouted anxiously, "San Ya, walk slower." She had already freed one hand to pat her sister-in-law and walked forward quickly.

Whenever Ma Shan used both hands in a hurry, Zhou Banxia couldn't help but worry that she would lose her hold and throw Xiao Suocheng out.

Zhou Banxia was frightened, but she couldn't yell at her in public, asking her to pay attention to the child's safety. So she subconsciously replied, "Sister-in-law, please wait for me. I can't go any faster."

The tone is anxious.

Ma Shan laughed.

Upon hearing this, Gu Erlang wanted to hold his forehead with his hand, but his hands and feet reacted faster than his brain. Before his wife's laughter died down, he had already stretched out his hands to grab his youngest son.

Now it was Gu Wenxuan's turn to laugh.

Before Liu left the main hall, she heard bursts of laughter in the courtyard outside. Although she didn't know what the children were laughing at, it was enough to make her laugh out loud.

When the family gets together, regardless of whether they have already had breakfast, the children, daughters-in-law and grandchildren will also eat a bite or two to accompany them.

The atmosphere is very good.

Zhou Banxia was in a good mood and drank an extra bowl of porridge and ate two red bean paste buns, thus saving the morning snack.

After dinner, Gu Erzhu and his two sons, who had stayed at home for the whole morning, did not go out. As usual, the family moved to the main hall to chat and talk.

There were many topics discussed, and they were very diverse. Basically, everyone said whatever they thought of. Even Xiao Suocheng started speaking in an alien language.

Time passed quickly as they chatted, and before they knew it, it was almost noon. The family moved to the flower hall, which is also the dining room, and had lunch together.

After lunch, this time, before Gu Erzhu led the team back to the main hall, a guest arrived.

There are quite a few people coming.

First, Gu Dagu from the town came back to her parents' home for lunch and brought along Old Lady Gu, followed by Gu Sanzhu and Gu Laosi, who came with their respective wives to visit.

In less than a cup of tea, the group of people had just entered the main courtyard and had no time to sit down in the living room when they were greeted by Aunt Ma and her eldest daughter-in-law outside the gate.

When Ma Da Niang and her daughter-in-law entered the inner courtyard under the guidance of the maid, another maid came from the main courtyard to announce that Gu Yangqing and his wife from the coach inn in the city had arrived.

Good guy.

Gu Erzhu originally thought that at most his two relatives would come to visit with their wives and children today, but the guests who came surprised him again and again.

Not to mention that his eldest sister would not have gone back to her parents' home to give New Year gifts before Laba Festival, but she came today. His cousin is not staying in the city, so why doesn't he bring his wife to visit?

What’s interesting is that before the maid who served tea left, another guest came to his house. They were Zhao Laoer and Ma Dazhuang, who were said to be very busy recently.

One of these two people lives in the city, and the other lives nearby. They don't usually interact closely. How did they get together today and come together? If they came together, it should be Brother Zhou and Brother Zhao. After all, the two of them get along well and have a good relationship.

If the old woman had not mentioned the master of the relative family when she reported, Gu Erzhu would have suspected that he had heard it wrong, but he did not have time to think about it for the moment.

Unlike close relatives and in-laws, when Zhao Laoer came, Gu Erzhu felt it was not appropriate to let Zhao Laoer enter the inner courtyard, especially when there were a row of female relatives in the room.

So he quickly invited Gu Yangqing, called his two sons, and took Gu Sanzhu and Gu Laosi to the outer courtyard to welcome Zhao Laoer who had come for some reason.

As for his mother and eldest sister, especially the eldest sister who seemed to have something to ask, he believed that his wife would entertain them well and handle any problems.

After all, his eldest sister, who is the sister-in-law, gets along well with his wife on weekdays, and the two of them are not the kind of people who are unreasonable or make trouble.

With some concerns about his elder sister, Gu Erzhu led the team to the outer courtyard. There were guests again, and this time the guests were within his expectations.

It was no one but Zhou Sishun, the relative he guessed, who was so particular that he didn't come for lunch and insisted on bringing his wife and children over in the afternoon.

Outer courtyard hall.

Although Zhou Sishun had learned from the gate outside the manor that the Gu family had many guests today, he did not expect that even Gu Yangqing was sitting inside.

Zhao Laoer actually came today as well, but he didn't think it was strange.

Similar things happened more than once or twice. Often when Zhao Laosan was having problems letting the steward know, he would ask Zhao Laoer to pass on the message or send a letter.

"Why are you here?"

Zhou Sishun wanted to ask his cousin-in-law Gu Yangqing how he came here, but he was interrupted by someone else. It was a good question and it made him laugh.

"You all came from the city, I would be sorry to you if I didn't rush over right away." Zhou Sishun said with a smile, and stepped aside to let his two sons pay their respects to their elder.

"You're being picky again." Zhao Lao Er shook his head and laughed, looking at the big and small rivers that came forward to pay their respects, "Not bad, not bad, our little river has grown taller again.

You are so clever. I heard that you have made great progress in your studies just like your brother. Your father is so lucky. You are only seven or eight years old, and you are already a promising student. "

Hearing this, Xiao He stood up straight, with a shy smile on his face, "Uncle, please praise me more. I'm not that good yet. I've only just learned The Great Learning."

With his elder brother taking the imperial examination all the way to the palace test, Zhao Laoer naturally knew that the first of the Four Books and Five Classics to be learned was "The Great Learning", but he also understood that this little clever boy was being modest.

Given the Zhou family's tradition of not wanting to show off and always being modest, this clever little girl said she had just learned "The Great Learning", so she must have finished learning it. Maybe she has even started learning "The Analects of Confucius", after all, she has a third sister who is no less capable than any other boy.

The third daughter of the Zhou family is a well-known nerd in the Gao mansion. This nerd is not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also has a good embroidery skill.

According to my third brother, the third girl of the Zhou family is not only proficient in these girls' talents, but her knowledge of the Four Books and Five Classics is also not inferior to that of a scholar.

There is such a third sister who was raised as a rich lady by Madam Gao and Lord Zhou's eldest sister, who had a terrible ups and downs. She is also devoted to making plans for her two younger brothers.

As long as these two kids are not too stupid, there is no way they will not be successful.

The eldest child, ever since his third sister came back last year, waited until the county examination started in February or March this year, and he passed all the tests without taking a breath and won the title of a student on government academy.

This little one looks even smarter.
