Chapter 47: First Sight
Xu Lan hesitated for a while, "Then you go, you must be polite when asking, if it is inconvenient for others, you must not beg others, it will make people embarrassed." ”
"Hey, okay." Guo Quan should go.
Guo Xiaoli stood up, "Brother, I'll go with you!" How could she look at what her brother really told her mother.
Without waiting for her mother to say anything, Guo Xiaoxi lifted the hem of her skirt and took her brother's hand and ran out, Guo Quan was forced to keep up.
It wasn't until she ran away that Guo Xiaoci stopped and took a breath, and when she turned around, she told her brother, "Brother, when you talk to He Mo later, you must ask him as much as possible to help take us to the town." ”
"Huh?" Guo Quan was at a loss, "Didn't A-Niang just ask?" ”
Guo Xiaoci nodded his forehead angrily, "Brother, do you really want to go to town?" That's almost thirty miles away. ”
"Okay."
He Juan, who was watching A-Niang's embroidered handkerchief in the house, was already sleepy, knowing that she shouldn't have come back with Sister A-Niang, but she was caught by her mother after taking a few steps, saying that she would not let her go out, propping herself on the table and sighing.
Lin Qing doesn't care about her anymore, she is used to being like a leather monkey every day, she has to take care of her temperament, otherwise she won't be able to find her in-laws in the future, "Juan'er, do you want to be bored or do you want to be popular with your mother." ”
"Don't!" He Juan's head shook like a rattle, and she sat there with a needle, thinking of this picture, she felt uncomfortable.
When she turned her head to look out, she saw Guo Quan's figure, and immediately jumped up from the chair, Lin Qing saw that she was going out again and shouted, "Where are you going!" ”
The outside of her house was fenced with bamboo, and Guo Xiaoxi was startled when she saw a figure rushing in front of them as soon as she approached.
He Juan looked at them happily, "Sister! Guo Quan, you're back from your uncle! ”
"Yes."
He Juan pouted and said with envy, "I envy you for being able to go to your uncle to kill pigs every day, I am bored to death in the village every day." ”
After chasing them out, Lin Qing saw their warm voices, "It's Guo Quan and Xiaoci, are you here to play with Juan'er?" ”
Guo Xiaoxi asked sweetly, "Aunt Lin, are we here to ask if Brother He Mo will come back today?" ”
He Juan turned around and said suspiciously, "Uncle? ”
Guo Xiaoxi said the purpose of their trip, "Yes, we want to go to the town tomorrow to buy farm tools, and the family field suddenly has water, and there are more things to buy at once, so I want to ask if you can take us for a ride." ”
"Is there water in the field? That's a good thing! Lin Qing was really worried about them, she was also a widow, she had a special understanding of Xu Lan, she was a little embarrassed and said, "It's just that this Zimo has been very busy with the affairs of the Yamen recently, except for public holidays, he has not come back, and he lives directly in the Yamen." ”
Guo Xiaoci was a little depressed in her heart, is it so difficult for her to go to the town if she wants to? It's really going to be walked on two legs, and people are going to die after walking for thirty miles, it's not an exaggeration, "Okay, thank you Aunt Lin, brother, let's go back." ”
Guo Quan didn't know what to say to persuade Sister A like this, if only he could drive cattle, he followed behind and walked out, and his ears moved before he went out, "Sister! There is a sound of horses, is it that Brother He Mo is back! ”
He Mo, who was riding a horse and swaying home, looked at the dusk on the horizon, enjoying the tranquility of this moment, the affairs of the yamen were finally over, and he was also idle, and he had no intention of going home.
When he walked out of the yamen, the yacha who was on duty at the gate saw him and asked, "Is Lord He going home?" ”
As soon as I thought of it, my naughty niece always gave his sister-in-law a headache, and last time I promised to bring her a sugar gourd back next time, so I said um.
He Mo glanced down at the sugar gourd in his hand, thinking that she would be very happy to see it, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"Uncle is back? Where, where? He Juan stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance, she didn't see it, "Guo Quan, did you hear it wrong!" ”
Guo Quan retorted to her, "Impossible! He was extremely convinced of his hearing, it must have been the sound of horses' hooves, and the sound was getting closer and closer, and a horse appeared not far away, "Look! ”
Their eyes looked at each other, and He Juan jumped up excitedly, "A-Niang! It's uncle, it's uncle! He's back! He pushed open the courtyard door and ran towards him.
When he was far away, he saw the sugar gourd he was holding in his hand, his steps were faster, and he almost fell off himself in the middle of a stumble, He Mo saw this and immediately turned over and dismounted and walked towards her in three or two steps, holding her hand with a serious face, "Didn't you say that you can't be so frizzy?" ”
"Hey, hey, hey." He Juan laughed nonchalantly, her eyes shining, "Uncle, why did you come back, why didn't you tell us in advance!" ”
He Mo handed the sugar gourd in his hand to her with some helplessness, "The yamen is not busy, and the uncle will come back often in the future." ”
He Juan looked at him in disbelief, "Really? ”
"Hmm."
Guo Xiaoli looked at him from a distance and was still wearing a public uniform, his tall figure in black was different from the sick appearance of the beauty at home, handsome, the first thing that came to her mind was these two words.
When he approached, she realized that he was actually a head taller than herself, so tall, she thought that her height was not short, and this connection between the two met someone who was so tall as herself, and began to have her own doubts.
Is it because the people here are so tall? Only when she was pulled down, she turned her head and saw her younger brother who was shorter than herself, and her heart was inexplicably balanced, although her brother was only nine years old and had not yet developed, it didn't matter.
When they approached, Guo Quan raised his head and greeted him, "Brother He Mo." ”
He Mo was stunned when he looked at him sideways, and he couldn't remember who he was for a while, and his eyes fell on Guo Xiaoxi, who was standing on the side, and fell into thought.
"Uncle, this is Guo Quan and his sister, they are here to find you!" He Juan said beside him, solving his confusion in time.
He Mo instantly remembered the Guo Quan that his niece told him when he came back not long ago, "Come to me?" Is there something going on? ”
Lin Qing was also in a very good mood when he saw him coming back, and beckoned there, "Don't talk at the door, what's the matter, we are talking when we enter the house, Zimo hasn't eaten yet, sister-in-law will cook for you." ”
