Chapter 39 Respect

Gu Huayu drank the clear soup from the bowl, watched the sideshows for a while, and walked around the street with Gu Dechang for a while before returning to Huangji.

 Father and daughter have made an appointment to set off tomorrow at Yin time and Maochu.

 After breakfast on the second day, shopkeeper Huang asked someone to pack some snacks for Gu Huayu. He also asked someone to move two plates of tofu, several jars of bamboo leaves and several pieces of fine cloth to the car.

Gu Dechang couldn't stop him, so he had to thank him repeatedly.

Shopkeeper Huang smiled and sent Gu Dechang and Gu Huayu outside the city gate.

The car drove for a while, and when Gu Huayu turned around, she saw Shopkeeper Huang still standing outside the city gate, "Dad, Uncle Huang is still outside the city gate."

Gu Dechang looked back and waved to Shopkeeper Huang.

Shopkeeper Huang waved in response, then turned and walked back.

Gu Huayu looked at Shopkeeper Huang’s back and asked, “Dad, Uncle Huang doesn’t have any family members?”

 Gu Dechang replied while driving: "Yes, Brother Huang is still alone." There was a slight regret in his words.

 In modern times, there are a lot of unmarried people. But in ancient times, when filial piety was the first priority and having no descendants was the most important thing, unless the family was too poor to afford a wife, very few people would stay unmarried.

 Gu Huayu thought about Shopkeeper Huang's probing eyes, and was filled with doubts, especially the look of shock in Shopkeeper Huang's eyes when he first saw her.

Gu Huayu thought to herself, could it be that she looked like someone he knew?

Speaking of Shopkeeper Huang, Gu Dechang was filled with emotion and started talking more, "I once asked Brother Huang why he didn't start a family, but Brother Huang didn't want to say more. I was wondering if Brother Huang had any difficulties, so I didn't ask more questions."

Gu Huayu nodded and said: "Everyone's situation is different, and their attitude towards life will be different. My father has not experienced what Uncle Huang has experienced, so it is naturally difficult to persuade him. However, after thinking about it, Uncle Huang has his own considerations."

 Gu Dechang couldn't help but feel shocked after hearing Gu Huayu's words. He turned his head and took a deep look at Gu Huayu.

 Overnight, Xiaoyu seemed to have really grown up, and her thoughts no longer looked like those of a child.

 Gu Dechang nodded in agreement, "Yes, there are some things that cannot be persuaded. Everyone's situation is different, and their feelings are naturally different. Therefore, I don't ask too many questions and only respect Brother Huang's choice."

Gu Huayu was putting cakes in her mouth. After hearing Gu Dechang's words, her hand paused.

 Her father’s attitude towards people and things made her look askance. Even in modern times, with such an opinion, he was considered enlightened.

Gu Huayu patted the Dou Momo on her hand and said, "That's right, there's no way to persuade her, just respect her."

Gu Dechang looked back at Gu Huayu, his eyes darkened a bit, and he said with a happy smile: "Xiaoyu is right."

Gu Huayu smiled and handed the broad beans over, "Dad, eat the broad beans!"

Gu Dechang looked back and shook his head: "No, Xiao Yuchi, I don't like these snacks."

Gu Huayu took back the food box and twisted a few broad beans in her hands.

The broad beans are crispy and delicious.

Gu Huayu asked while eating broad beans: "Dad, when did my brothers go to the academy?"

Gu Dechang raised his head and said: "In half a month, after the Dragon Boat Festival, Nanshan College will have an entrance exam. Then let Brother Lin and the others take the exam."

Gu Huayu nodded and asked Gu Dechang about his brothers' studies.

“Dad, stop the car!” As the car reached Strange Rock Ridge, Gu Huayu saw someone lying on the **** more than ten feet away to the right.

After hearing what his daughter said, Gu Dechang quickly stopped the car, turned around and asked, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong?"

Gu Huayu had jumped out of the car and pointed to the distance: "Dad, look over there!"
