Gu Qian held Brother Tiger with one hand and the old lady with the other, and slowly walked towards his house with full excitement.

He originally wanted to complain to the old mother and childish child when he returned home, but there were so many onlookers outside the door, and there were relatives who heard that he had been promoted and wanted to come to the court, and for a while, the courtyard of the Gu family was crowded with people, and everyone moved forward, all wanting to make friends with the new Gu Governor's Mansion.

Gu Qian's head is as big as a fight, but he has to maintain a smile on his face and socialize with the villagers, and ordinary people just say a perfunctory sentence, but the squire with a head and face can't be offended, after all, he is an official in a foreign country, and the affairs of his family still need to be taken care of by these local snakes, so Gu Qian can only fold his spirits and talk with the first wave of guests with a smile.

"Kuan'er, are you tired?" When the lamp was in hand, the family could be regarded as stopping, Gu Qian came to the main room where his mother lived, and sat on the chair in front of Luohan's bed with a smile, ready to talk to his old mother.

"Mother Xu, go and twist a hot veil, see that Kuan'er's forehead is sweating. Although the old lady did not show up this day, but there were so many guests at home, she always had to arrange meals and dispatch people to take care of them, and in the evening, she also felt a little tired.

Seeing that the old lady who was originally crooked on the Luohan bed was about to sit up, Gu Qian hurriedly pressed the old lady's shoulder, and asked her to continue to lean comfortably on the bed, "You've been busy for a day, so it's not too late to get up when you eat later." ”

"Hey, just listen to Kuan'er. The old lady was born in a scholarly family, and she has high requirements for manners since she was a child, but no matter how strict the rules are, she has to give way in front of her son, so the old lady leaned back with a smile on her face.

The mother was talking, Brother Tiger walked in from the outside with cheerful steps, turned the fan, and saw at a glance that the grandmother was talking to his father on the collapse, unlike the grandmother who was usually strict with him, today's grandmother's face was full of joy, and her eyes were full of comfort and kindness.

"Brother Tiger, come here. Seeing that the eldest grandson was stunned there, the old lady hurriedly beckoned.

Brother Tiger stood in place, a little hesitant, although he often heard his grandmother talk about his father, but because he saw less, even though he had infinite longing for his father in his heart, he couldn't take a step forward.

"Brother Hu'er?" Seeing his son standing still, Gu Qian couldn't help but wonder.

"Daddy......" was different from the first meeting at the gate, Brother Tiger at this time was shy and introverted, he glanced up at Gu Qian shyly, and then turned his head slightly.

"This child is still recognized. The old lady smiled and shook her head.

"Brother Tiger, come. Seeing that his son was a little emotional, Gu Qian felt a little more helpless in addition to apologizing, he had never gotten along with such a big child, and naturally he couldn't figure out what the child thought, but he was also very uncomfortable when he saw Brother Hu'er wanting to get close to him but was a little evasive.

Gu Qian stood up, walked a few steps slowly, and stretched out his hand towards Brother Hu'er.

The man's hands were slender and white, because he had been at the border for a long time, and he had long since lost his former warmth, and there were a few calluses on his palms, which were the nicks made by riding a horse.

"Brother Hu'er?" Seeing Brother Tiger staring at his hand without moving, Gu Qian leaned down and asked softly.

"It's fine. Brother Tiger shook his head and put his little hand into the man's palm.

Dry, warm, the man's big hand can completely wrap his small hand into it, Brother Tiger raised his head, looked at Gu Qian's thin and upright silhouette, and finally combined the imaginary father and the real father together, the reassuring reliance that can only be felt in dreams finally came to his side.

"It's a child's temper. Seeing the eldest grandson awkwardly being led to him by his son, the old lady chuckled and nodded his forehead.

"Brother Tiger is still young. Gu Qian protected his son, pulled his son to sit down beside him, and asked a few daily words softly.

The father and son haven't seen each other for a long time, and they haven't lived together, no matter how hard Gu Qian tries, he can't find a topic after asking a few words.

Seeing his embarrassment, the old lady smiled and instructed Mother Xu to pass the meal, family affection needs to be managed, and it also takes time to warm up each other's feelings.

"Mother, you eat this. The old lady's teeth were not very good, so Gu Qian took a chopstick of tofu and put it in the old lady's bowl.

"Okay, okay, you eat too. The old lady ate the tofu with a smile, and sandwiched a chicken leg between Gu Qian and Brother Hu.

"Thank you Grandmother. Brother Tiger raised his head from the rice bowl and showed his oily little mouth.

"Eat it. Although the old lady is quite strict with Brother Tiger on weekdays, but after all, there is still a lot of love, looking at the eldest grandson's rare good appetite, the old lady couldn't help but give him two chopsticks and meat dishes.

"Grandmother, I'm enough, you should eat quickly, otherwise the meal will be cold in a while. ”

"Good, grandmother eats. ”

The family had dinner happily, and after removing the leftovers and replacing them with two hot teas, Brother Hu'er's head was already sleepily nodded twice.

"Brother Tiger is sleepy?" After eating a meal, the atmosphere between the father and son was much better, Gu Qian touched Brother Tiger's head and said with a smile, "Go to sleep if you are sleepy, Daddy has a month's vacation this time, and I have time to accompany you." ”

"Is it only a month?" Tiger Brother's eyes widened, obviously disappointed.

"Not only this month, but after Dad goes to Taizhou to take up his post, he will take you and your grandmother over, but Taihu Lake is far away from Taizhou, and this matter needs to be discussed in the long run. ”

"Daddy is going to take me to Taizhou?" Brother Hu'er's depressed mood was shocked, and he looked at Gu Qian with surprise in his eyes.

Although he is not very close to his father, the bond between father and son makes Brother Hu extremely dependent on men, after all, his biological mother died early, and his father is not around, even if he has the protection of his grandmother, he still can't stop some people from gossiping in his ear.

Why did your father marry a child outside, what stepmother gave birth to a child, you have no one to want, etc., children are sensitive, and the previous gathering at the gate was also, if it wasn't for the confirmation that Gu Qian was not followed by a woman, Brother Hu'er's crisp "Dad" would not be able to be called anyway.

Seeing the admiration in his son's eyes, Gu Qian's heart was sour, he squatted down, held Brother Hu'er's shoulder, and said softly, "You are Daddy's most beloved son, Daddy used to be an official in a bitter cold place, and he couldn't take you and his grandmother to endure hardship, but now it's different, Taizhou is a famous rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, although there is a danger of widowhood, but with Daddy's ability, he will definitely be able to protect you and your grandmother." ”

"Daddy, you have to count what you say. Brother Tiger looked up with a small face and said seriously.

"Okay, is it okay for Daddy to hook up with you?" Gu Qian stretched out his little finger and shook it at Brother Hu'er, Brother Tiger pursed his lips and smiled, stretched out his finger and hooked it, and stamped it very seriously, and got the promise that he would not have to be separated from his father again, Brother Tiger was in a good mood, and was obediently taken down to sleep by Mother Xu.

"Do you really want to take me and Brother Tiger to Taizhou?" After Brother Tiger left, the old lady's face was a little solemn, I thought that the old lady would be happy to go with her, but I didn't expect to see this expression on her face, Gu Qian was a little embarrassed, and said softly, "You don't want to?"

"It's not that I don't want to, my mother has lived in Taihu County all her life and has long been accustomed to life here, but my mother also knows that Brother Hu is older, and when he reaches the age when he needs his father, I can't obstruct Brother Hu'er's future for my own selfishness. ”

"It's me who is so selfish. Gu Qian lowered his head deeply, if he didn't become an official, his mother wouldn't have to travel thousands of miles with her child, go to a strange place and start over.

"What are you talking about," Mrs. Gu reprimanded, "Your father died early, and when we were young, our mother depended on each other, and my mother's greatest wish in this life is just to hope that everything will go well for you, and that you will live a safe life, even if your homeland is difficult to leave, as long as it is for you and Brother Hu'er, your mother is willing to do anything." ”

"Mother......" Gu Qian lowered his head in shame.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, since Gu An came back with the letter, my mother has been mentally prepared. Old Madam Gu sighed and said, "In a few days, I will ask Mother Xu to pack her luggage, and when you go to work, we can leave together." ”

"Mother, don't worry," Gu Qian waved his hand and said, "When I first went to Taizhou, I was already unfamiliar with the place, and besides, there was a prevalence of plague there, so I want to pick you and Brother Hu over when I settle down." ”

Seeing that Gu Qian's words were sincere, Old Madam Gu faintly showed a hint of worry on her face, and she also knew that this topic was not suitable for any longer, so she smiled and said, "You won't leave for a while, let's discuss it slowly." ”

"Xie Niang understands. ”

It was late at night, and the family was tired after a day of tossing, saying goodbye to Mrs. Gu, Gu Qian walked to his room with soothing steps, farewell to the years, the last time he slept in this house was when he sent Xue Yuniang to be buried five years ago, and I don't know how long it has been, and his room is still not the same as it was at the beginning.

"Master, are you back?" Gu An waited at the door, and when he saw Gu Qian coming back, he hurriedly opened the curtain for him.

"Hmm. Gu Qian nodded and said, "Is there still hot water?"

"Yes, yes, I've been preparing it for you for a long time. ”

"I'll take a shower first, if you're tired, go and rest first, and it's not too late to clean up the bathroom tomorrow. ”

"The little ones don't get tired. Gu An smiled and waited for him to enter the bathroom.

Gu Qian took a bath, asked Gu An to press his shoulder, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep without thinking about anything.
