Chapter 25 Bluffing

 “Old man, stop here.”

Gu Huaidong heard Gu Huayu's voice and hurriedly got up and went to the door.

“Old man, please help me unload the things.” Gu Huayu jumped out of the car and turned to the driver.

 “Okay!” The driver responded with a smile, and immediately helped unload the goods with quick hands and feet.

"Xiaoyu, is this...?" Gu Huaidong looked back and forth between the small mountain of goods and Gu Huayu, and asked doubtfully.

Gu Huayu turned to look at Gu Huaidong, bowed to say hello, and then said: "Grandpa, Xiaoyu and the second uncle will pick up the eldest sister first. My father and uncle are still in Shatu Village and will not be back until later."

Gu Chengjiao sat up with Fang's help and bowed to Gu Huaidong.

Seeing Gu Chengjiao's pale face, Gu Huaidong was heartbroken and hurriedly ordered Mrs. Fang: "From the Dehai family, hurry up and carry Sister Jiao back to the house to rest. You child, why are you like this?"

Fang got off the carriage and carried Gu Chengjiao into the yard.

Wan heard the noise and rushed over to help. When she saw a pile of goods, she was extremely surprised.

Gu Huayu didn't bother to explain to Wan, and only asked her to help the driver unload the goods. She turned around and pulled Gu Huaidong and said, "Grandpa, Xiaoyu has something to tell you."

Just when Gu Huaidong had a lot of questions to ask her, he walked into the yard with a bag of rice and said to Gu Huayu: "Come to the yard and tell me."

Gu Huayu bent down and picked up a piece of cloth, followed Gu Huaidong into the yard, and the grandfather and grandson walked under the pear tree.

Gu Huaidong put the rice bag aside, reached out and moved the bamboo chair to sit down, raised his head and asked, "What does Xiaoyu want to say to his grandfather?"

 Gu Huayu put down the cloth, moved a bench and sat down opposite Gu Huaidong. First she talked about Gu Chengjiao, and then about selling ginseng.

Hearing this, Gu Huaidong straightened his back and asked in shock: "Xiaoyu, you said... you picked a century-old ginseng in the mountains and sold it for 800 taels of silver?"

Gu Huayu nodded and handed over all the remaining money in her purse, "I spent one or two taels on medicine for my mother, two taels on renting a car, twenty taels on my father, and seven taels on rice, flour, oil and salt." Two or five cents, the rest is all here.

Originally, I wanted to go to Shopkeeper Liu to pay for the seeds. But when I met the third brother on the street, I went to the Han family with the third brother. The money from Shopkeeper Liu had to be settled another day. "

Gu Huaidong looked at the money bag, but did not reach out to take it. Instead, he picked up the tea cup and drank two sips of tea. He had to calm down. He was old and could not withstand the torment of great sorrow and great joy.

After a while, Gu Huaidong said: "Xiaoyu, you earned the money. You can keep it yourself or give it to your father and mother. You don't have to give it to your grandfather."

Seeing that Gu Huaidong refused to accept the money, Gu Huayu took out a banknote from her purse and held it in her hand, "Grandpa, I'll just take one. The rest will be given to my grandfather for his home use. Brothers, don't delay your studies. Go to the academy." Studying requires money.”

This time, Gu Huaidong hesitated.

Gu Huayu grabbed the money bag and stuffed it into his hand, "Grandpa, keep it."

 Gu Huaidong thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll keep it first and discuss it with Germany and the others at night. If Xiaoyu wants money, ask his grandfather for it."

"Second sister-in-law, why did you buy so many things? Did you spend a lot of money?" Mrs. Wan moved the things into the yard one by one and raised her head to ask Mrs. Fang who came out of the east wing.

Fang glanced at Gu Huayu under the pear tree and said, "You have to ask Xiaoyu, she bought the things."

"Xiaoyu bought it? Xiaoyu, where did you get the money from? Huh?" Wanshi looked at Gu Huayu in disbelief.

Gu Huayu had to explain in detail about selling ginseng.
