Chapter 32: Stay for a meal
Uncle Wang and the others got up and bowed their heads and returned: "The daughter-in-law of the old slave is the nurse of the eldest girl, the old slave is called Wang Laoshi, and the people are called Uncle Wang, this is the dog Wang Tao, and those are the hired workers of Zhuangzi."
Zhou Muhan nodded, and looked at Gu Xinyu in men's clothes, a group of hired workers, next to the fields that seemed to be paddy fields in the south, plus the little snow wolf standing at his feet, even if he was full of questions, it was not the place to speak now.
turned around directly, took the wooden box in Wang Er's second-hand, and wanted to give it to Gu Xinyu, but looking at her appearance, she frowned, and threw the wooden box to Wang Er, Wang Er caught it dangerously, and looked at Zhou Muhan in wonder.
Zhou Muhan turned over and got on his horse and said to Uncle Wang: "You drive the trailer cart, will" his eyes swept to the hired workers, and without further talking, Uncle Wang immediately understood, and trotted to catch the trailer.
Gu Xinyu saw the wooden box, guessing that it might be the title deed and hosta that he had returned to him, so he didn't say much, and this was indeed not the place to talk, so he arranged for Xiao Tao and San Lang to continue planting seedlings, and got into the carriage by himself, originally wanting to greet Wangcai, but when he saw the little wolf who was tired of Zhou Muhan's horse, his eyes were glaring, and Wangcai reluctantly got into the car, and the group drove towards Zhuangzi.
Zhou Muhan has been quietly looking at Gu Xinyu, watching her arrange for the hired workers to continue to work, watching her grab the wheel with her right hand and get up, and watching her stare at the little snow wolf obediently get into the carriage and can't help but shake her head.
The group soon arrived at the dilapidated farmhouse, where Mama Wang and Chunmei had been waiting nervously in front of the door, and were relieved to see Gu Xinyu come back.
Zhou Muhan dismounted and took the wooden box in Wang's second-hand, and strode towards the main house, with a slender figure, and his noble spirit was really incompatible with this house.
Gu Xinyu looked at his back, pursed his lips, went to wash, and when he came out after changing his clothes, he saw Wangcai, who had been washed cleanly, and was wearing snow-white fur around Zhou Muhan in a circle
Zhou Muhan looked up at Gu Xinyu, at this time she had already changed into clean plain clothes, and her hair was casually pulled back of her head
Gu Xinyu picked up the wooden box and opened it, and smiled slightly: "Thank you for me." ”
Zhou Muhan nodded, did not speak, looked at the mottled walls around him, the empty hall, and the muddy floor that was not even paved with green bricks, and thought for a while: "Here is a letter from your father to you" After speaking, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to her.
Gu Xinyu was stunned for a moment, immediately snatched the letter, and couldn't wait to open it, sure enough, it was his father's handwriting in his memory, the pen was sharp, and it was magnificent, and when he saw the first line of words, tears fell
"Ah Wan's beloved daughter sees words like faces"
Because the modern Gu Xinyu was born in the evening, his nickname is Ah Wan.
I feel that I haven't heard anyone call me for two lifetimes, while crying, I looked at my father's letter, most of the fathers in the letter are concerned about Gu Xinyu's words, three years, I haven't received a message from my daughter I am very worried, and at the same time tell me that everything is fine at home, don't worry, be filial to the elders in the in-law's house, etc
Gu Xinyu wiped away his tears, sat there with the letter, and said for a while: "My father sends me a letter every year, but this is the first letter I have received that makes my father miss me like this, can I ask the general, what is going on?" ”
Zhou Muhan was silent, because he didn't know a lot of things, and he was a person who was not good at talking, so he didn't answer Gu Xinyu's question.
Gu Xinyu didn't expect him to say anything, just when he was about to get up to see off the guests, Mama Wang had already come in with a tray, put down the dishes in the tray, a total of six plates, braised pork ribs, soft fried crispy pork, cold cucumber shreds, cabbage tofu soup, minced meat, chili eggplant box, and a plate of amber peanuts, Zhou Muhan wanted to get up and leave, but the special aroma of the food stimulated his stomach, because of the busy military affairs, he didn't eat at noon, and was hurriedly called by his grandfather, and then he came directly to this Zhuangzi by horseback
At this time, looking at a few dishes with full color and flavor, I suddenly felt very hungry, so I calmly continued to sit steadily, and Chunmei brought a large plate of leek boxes and two bowls of millet porridge
Zhou Muhan looked at the small dishes he had never seen before, especially cucumbers, as far as he knew, the sergeants in the barracks now eat cabbage and tofu, and this season there were suddenly cucumbers on the table, which made him very surprised, so he looked at Gu Xinyu, but he didn't expect that the woman opposite didn't look at herself at all, just picked up a plate, put a few pieces of meat and the dumpling-like thing, put it in front of the little snow wolf, and muttered, "You eat mine and drink mine, you dare to pounce on others, and see how I clean you up in a while!" ”
The little snow wolf stepped back, flatteringly arching Gu Xinyu's sleeves, Zhou Muhan watched this scene quietly, his face was blank, and he didn't know what he was thinking
Seeing that Zhou Muhan was full of food and drink, lazily leaning on the back of the chair and drinking the prickly rose fruit tea he had blended, Gu Xin slandered, if it was a month ago, you wouldn't be able to eat like this, give you a multigrain nest, see if you can't die!
It was already dark, Gu Xinyu said to Zhou Muhan: "Let's go, it will be dark in a while, don't talk about living here, look at you, there is a place for you to live here."
Mama Wang, who was waiting outside, was anxious for a while, this stupid child, how could she push people out, but knowing Gu Xinyu's temper, she didn't dare to say anything casually
Zhou Muhan smiled lightly, got up neatly, didn't look at Gu Xinyu, pushed the door and walked out, Wang Er outside had already eaten and drunk, and was still savoring the deliciousness of the leek box in his heart, when he saw that the general had already walked out and stepped forward, Zhou Muhan looked at him and ordered softly: "Go to the Iron Blood Camp and transfer a few secret guards, this Zhuangzi is too unsafe, report to me in time if there is any situation, focus on protecting the young lady!" ”
Wang Er nodded in response, and after riding on the horse, he looked back at the dilapidated farmhouse bathed in the sunset, and there was no longer any contempt, not to mention the general's advice, just say that the things eaten in this season are really memorable!
Fu Shu walked out slowly at the corner next to the conservatory, just now he saw someone riding a horse to the farm from a distance, he quickly dodged and hid, but he didn't expect it to be Zhou Muhan, who had met in the palace two years ago, and he was very impressed by Fu Shu.
Fu Shu pondered, should he secretly contact Zhen Guogong?
But it was said that Zhou Muhan returned to the Guogong Mansion and gave a brief return to his grandfather about the situation in Zhuangzi, and the grandfather sighed, looked at the eldest grandson with an indistinguishable expression, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, the eldest son was paralyzed in bed, the daughter-in-law was yin and yang, and the eldest grandson has not yet had no heirs
"Mu Han, if the farm is really inhabitable, take your daughter-in-law back"
Zhou Muhan thought about it, but still shook his head, intuition that Gu Xinyu would not come back, and it was better to stay in the farm until those grievances were resolved.
"Grandfather, I see that there is a field in the farm today that is very similar to the rice fields in Jiangnan, and I will take the time to look at it in a few days."
Zhen Guogong raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Muhan in surprise.
"You mean your daughter-in-law grows rice on the Zhuangzi?"
Zhou Muhan nodded lightly.
