Chapter 73 Back to the village

The road back to the county seat is still long.

Gu Mingda rented a carriage from the county horse and carriage company. Since it was a chartered carriage, it could be sent directly to Qingshui Village without passing through the county.

Due to the remote location of Qingshui Village, carriages rarely come. As soon as they entered the village, the children at the entrance of the village started to scream when they saw the carriage.

Gu Mingda opened the car curtain and accurately saw the Gu family's dolls among the children.

In such trivial matters, Gu Mingda was also happy to be a respectable elder and shouted to the children in the third room of the first house.

The carriage stopped, and Gu Yun, Gu Jin, Da Ya and Xiao Ya climbed up with excitement on their faces.

"I'm riding a carriage. It's much more stable than an ox-cart!" Gu Jin sat in the carriage and shouted excitedly to his friends below.

Gu Mingda took out the snacks he had prepared a long time ago and gave a pack to each child in the family.

When it was given to Xiaoya, she stuffed it all into her mouth and devoured it as soon as she got it.

This action made Niu Niu stunned for a moment, and she said: "Little sister, if you eat so much in one breath, you will easily choke. Choking is very uncomfortable."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaoya suddenly began to roll her eyes, obviously eating too much in one go and choking her neck.

Zhang Yunniang hurriedly handed over the water bag and felt relieved after watching Xiaoya drink the water and swallow the food.

"You kid, why are you in such a hurry to eat? Take your time, it's all yours, and no one is trying to steal it from you." After Zhang Yunniang finished speaking, she patted Xiaoya's back to calm her down.

After a long time, Xiaoya whispered: "If I don't eat quickly, it won't be my turn to eat when I get back."

Zhang Yuniang thought of Xiaoya's mother, Liu Erni, who was not good at speaking ill of her sister-in-law, so she could only remain silent.

But Niu Niu took the initiative and said: "Then you can keep it here with me and I will keep it for you. I promise not to eat it secretly!"

The child's words were innocent, and only one other child believed her.

Gu Xiaoya asked happily: "Really? Are you really willing to keep it for me?"

Niuniu nodded vigorously.

Other children on the side also came over and said, "I can also keep it for you! Leave all the delicious food to me in the future!"

It should be a very touching scene, but Gu Xiaoya looked at several of them defensively.

"I don't want you to keep it! It's useless if I leave it to you. I can only trust Niuniu and Brother Yan!" Gu Xiaoya said.

Gu Daya immediately became unhappy and asked: "Forget it if you can't trust my brother, why can't you even trust me? We are the best friends!"

Gu Xiaoya said directly: "The chestnuts I picked up last time..."

Gu Daya shut up immediately.

Gu Xiaoya took Niu Niu's hand, turned to Gu Daya and said proudly: "If you steal the chestnuts I asked you to keep, I will never be with you again. It's best for me to be with Niuniu in the future, because she The most well-behaved, she will make a sand table for me and share delicious food with me! ”

Gu Mingda glanced at Niu Niu in surprise. He had been out of school for two or three months in a hurry to take the exam. Children are forgetful. He thought Xiaoya and the others would simply forget about Niu Niu, a sister who had just come to the house not long ago.

But I didn't expect that people would remember it clearly and even stage a fight over it.

When Gu Daya heard what her cousin said, she took Niu Niu's other hand and said: "Niu Niu is not the best with you, Niu Niu is with me! You are not my favorite sister anymore, Niu Niu is the best. Yes! "The little girl's emotions come quickly and her temper is quick. It's obviously a trivial matter, but it gets bigger and bigger.

"It's best to follow me!"

"No, she likes me the most!"

The two of them each held Niu Niu's hand and almost started fighting.

Zhang Yunniang saw that Niu Niu's little face turned red from being pulled, and she quickly stopped her two nieces who were neither serious nor serious: "Okay, okay, I like them all! You are all Niu Niu's favorite sisters!"

In front of the elders, Da Ya and Xiao Ya finally stopped arguing.

Gu Xiaoya was still unwilling to give in, so she leaned into Niu Niu's ear and whispered: "Niu Niu, you have to be my first priority."

Seeing this action, Gu Daya immediately asked: "What are you whispering?"

Gu Xiaoya didn't answer, but made a face at her.

Seeing the situation, Gu Daya was so anxious that she was about to jump up again.

Zhang Yunniang quickly grabbed the person and said, "We're almost home, we're almost home."

Lao Gu's house was not far from the entrance of the village, and the carriage was parked outside the yard.

Mrs. Gu was still wondering where the carriage came from, but Gu Yun, a half-year-old boy, jumped out of the carriage and said with a smile: "Mistress, the second uncle is back. He bought a lot of things!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Gu immediately laughed so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes, and said, "Oh, my second son has become successful, and he came back in a carriage!"

Gu's third daughter-in-law, Liu Erni, looked at the carriage that was rarely seen in the countryside, and said sourly: "Second brother is now a scholar. He is different from us mud-legged people. He doesn't know how to put on such a big pomp. How much money will be spent on my parents in the future?”

Gu Mingda brought a carriage back this time not to show off, but simply because he didn't want the children to be too tired.

Hearing his sister-in-law's sinister words, before he could speak, Mrs. Gu had already spat: "You still have the nerve to say these things! No one can be more filial to us than you and the third child!"

Gu Mingda was shocked when he saw his mother's eyes spitting fire when she disagreed. In the past, he only knew that my mother didn't like his sister-in-law, but he had never seen her hate her so much before. Now she was gnashing her teeth and ready to rush forward and take a bite at any time. He looked at It's like there is a deep hatred.

When Liu Erni heard this, she also looked guilty. She found an excuse and hid in the house.

Mrs. Gu stood there and calmed down for a long time, then forced out a smile again, looked at the second room and her family, and said:

"Ten days ago, the yamen sent someone back to report that you came first in the college examination. I knew you were coming back. I clean your room every day. You must be tired after riding in the carriage for so long. Take a rest now. ”

"Okay, I will listen to my mother." Gu Mingda said with a smile.

He was the first to jump out of the carriage, then turned around and helped Zhang Yunniang get out of the carriage. Several young men jumped down directly without any help, and playfully helped the second couple carry large and small bags into the house.

Zhang Yunniang turned around and took Niuniu out of the carriage. As soon as she landed on the ground, the little girl threw herself on Mrs. Gu like a baby swallow in the forest.

"Grandma, Niu Niu misses you so much outside!" Niu Niu said loudly.

Niu Niu really missed Mrs. Gu. Every time she saw how Mrs. Qian doted on her adopted grandson, she couldn't help but think of Mrs. Gu who also loved her.

Mrs. Gu smiled sincerely with her old face, stretched out her old hand and rubbed Niu Niu's little face repeatedly, shouting "heartfelt".

The grandfather and grandson were bored for a while. Mrs. Gu looked around like a thief to make sure no one saw her. Then she secretly took out a red wild fruit the size of a baby's fist and stuffed it into Niu Niu's hand, urging her: : "Put it away quickly. Grandma only gives it to you. Don't let others see it."
