Chapter 33: There’s a long way to go

Thinking of this,

Gu Huayu got out of bed and walked out of the house as fast as a star.

She wanted to ask her parents about her life experience and her parents.

Gu Huayu came out of the house, and the cool wind blew away a lot of the anxiety and eagerness in her heart.

Gu Huayu looked at the moonlit and silent yard, her rationality returned little by little, and she slowed down her pace, finally stopping outside the door of her father and mother's house.

Gu Huayu turned around and leaned against the door frame, looking up at the cold bright moon in the sky.

After a long time, Gu Huayu finally calmed down, exhaled slightly, and warned herself not to be impulsive when things happen.

Even though she was not her parents' biological child, they treated her as their own. She couldn't rush in front of them and ask them questions, let alone live up to their hard work.

 The days are long and she will always have the opportunity to find out the matter.

 After thinking about it, Gu Huayu returned to the house and lay back on the bed. He murmured: "I just came back, don't be in a hurry, check slowly!"

 Gu Huayu woke up. It was already the end of the year. She got up, washed up, and had breakfast. Gu Huayu followed Gu Dechang and took Uncle Wang's oxcart to the town.

After arriving in town, Gu Dechang took Gu Huayu to the entrance of Kongjia Lane to catch a ride.

By the time they arrived, the carriage to the county seat had already been traveling for two quarters of an hour.

Gu Huayu took the opportunity to ask: "Dad, how much silver does a carriage cost?"

Gu Dechang replied casually: "An ordinary carriage costs about twenty taels of silver. Xiaoyu asked what is the purpose of this?"

"Then let's buy a carriage. It will be convenient for us to drag something around." Gu Huayu took over.

Gu Dechang turned his head to look at Gu Huayu, raised his hand to rub her head, and said, "It's a good idea, but dad only has ten taels of silver in his hand."

Gu Huayu waved her banknote in front of Gu Dechang's eyes like a treasure hunter.

“It doesn’t matter, I still have one hundred taels here. Let’s go buy a car!”

Gu Dechang took the bank note, took a look at it, and asked, "Really going?"

Gu Huayu tugged on Gu Dechang's sleeves, "Of course, we have to hurry up, otherwise we will miss the time to do business in the county seat."

 “Okay, let’s go!” Gu Dechang was not a grumpy person either.

The father and daughter did what they said, rushed to the car dealership, and bought a carriage for eighteen taels of silver.

Gu Dechang followed the driver of the car dealership for a quarter of an hour and then drove to the county seat.

Gu Huayu sat cross-legged in the car, looking at the green mountains and clear water, the wild flowers everywhere and the strong spring scenery, and she felt as if she was in another world.

 In that life, she never left Shangtai Village...

 The farthest place she went was the top of Eagle Cliff.

  She remembered that there was a flat open space on Eagle Cliff.

Her brother took her up to play, and she liked to sit quietly in the open space and look out into the distance, looking at the mountains and the smoke curling up at the foot of the mountains...

 “What is Xiaoyu thinking about?” Gu Dechang turned around and asked.

 Gu Huayu came back to her senses and said, "I didn't think of anything. This season is so good. Everywhere you look, everything is full of vitality."

"That's right, the spring breeze is fragrant with flowers and grass. At this time of year, everything is intoxicating. It will take more than an hour to get to the county seat. If you are tired, just take a nap. My dad will call you when you get there." Gu Dechang said with a smile.

 Gu Huayu responded: "Okay!"

Gu Huayu moved the baggage next to her and leaned against it, and asked casually: "Dad, what's in the baggage?"

Gu Dechang replied casually: "Something for a friend."

Gu Huayu didn't ask any more questions, leaned on the baggage, closed her eyes and rested her mind, and fell asleep after a while.

 When Gu Huayu woke up, she was already at the city gate.
