Gu Jinan and He Jinsheng finally got into the car, and after greeting Village Chief He, the third grandmother who was standing at the door to see them off, and Cui's family, he asked Zezi to drive to the town.

Feng Lian followed in another mule cart, which was loaded with New Year's gifts for Shang Xiucai's family, Shang Li's family, and Mr. Ouyang.

Village Chief He looked at the two mule carts that left one after the other, and was really envious, counting these two mule carts, the Gu family and the Gu family workshop already had five mule carts, which was really very entrenched.

Gu Jinan did not go straight to the town, but went to Shangjia Village first and met Shang Xiucai.

Shang Xiucai was very happy to see him, grabbed Gu Jinan's hand and went to the study: "Haha, you kid is finally back, I'm still worried about whether you want to spend the New Year outside." ”

Then he asked, "How are things going?" ”

There are so many people here that it's hard to talk, Gu Jinan only said: "Everything is going well, so Mr. is worried." ”

Shang Xiucai nodded and said: "It's good that it's going well, now that you're back, you'll focus on studying, although your knowledge is good, you can't be so wasted, you need to know that there are people outside the world." ”

"Yes, the students are taught." Gu Jinan looked at Shang Xiucai deeply, and when he looked up, he suddenly saw that Shang Xiucai's temples had grown a few gray hairs, and his heart was tight, and he was a little sad.

Shang Xiucai is younger than his father, but in the past three years, his father has been getting younger and younger, but Shang Xiucai is gradually showing some old age.

"Sir, you've been feeling unwell lately?" Gu Jinan asked, "Don't hide it from the students." ”

"Brother Jin'an." Yuan Yuan heard that their brother was coming, so he ran to the study, and when he heard this, he said angrily: "Isn't it sick, my father is sick and still doesn't take medicine obediently, if it weren't for Yuan Yuan and his mother staring at him to take bitter medicine, he is still lying in bed now." ”

Shang Yuanyuan is six years old this year, she is a good-looking little chubby girl with a round face, similar to three years ago, and she still likes to eat.

Gu Jinan listened anxiously: "How can Mr. not know how to cherish himself like a child?" ”

Shang Xiucai waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's just a small wind chill, this winter, many people have suffered from wind chills, and now they are fine, it doesn't matter." ”

looked at Yuan Yuan again: "Why don't you give Brother Jin'an, Brother Cheng, Brother Dexing, and Brother Jin Sheng a few salutes." ”

Yuan Yuan was a good boy, obediently saluted the big guy, and ran over to ask Gu Jin'an: "Brother Jin'an, is Jinling Mansion fun?" What did you bring back? Is there anything for Yuan Yuan? ”

Gu Jinan said with a smile: "Jinling Mansion is very prosperous, your sister Xiaoyu bought you a box of things, all for food and play, Zezi and Lianzi are moving in, you can get your yard back later." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zezi and Feng Lian came in with a load of things.

Yuan Yuan was really happy to see so many things, and hurriedly rushed over and dragged the burden and said, "Ham, ham." Daddy, Brother Jin'an has sent ham to our family. ”

Shang Xiu knew that the selling price of ham was quite expensive, and it could be auctioned for nearly two thousand taels of silver in Yanfu Building alone. I heard that those who bought ham are all big businessmen, and if they want to take the ham to Jiangnan, Beijing and other places for auction, the price will only be more expensive, at least 3,000 taels.

"How can you send such a valuable thing? I have already sent it at the time of the winter solstice, and I haven't finished eating it yet, so take these two back and sell them for money. Shang Xiucai was reluctant to eat such a thousand taels of silver.

Gu Jinan said: "Sir, take it, this is a little bit of the student's heart." Besides, the cost of this ham is not expensive, what is expensive is time, Xiaoyu will make an extra batch of ham every year to give away, this batch is to give away, Mr. don't have to feel distressed. ”

"Sister Xiaoyu is so good!" Yuan Yuan liked Gu Jinli the most, and hurriedly praised Gu Jinli: "Sister Xiaoyu is so thoughtful every time she does things, and my mother also asked me to learn from Sister Xiaoyu." ”

asked again: "When is Sister Xiaoyu free, does she come to the town to play during the Lantern Festival this year?" ”

Gu Jinan replied: "Recently, the pharmaceutical workshop has to ship goods for two days in a row, and after the delivery, she has to calculate the salary, distribute silver, and issue New Year's gifts to the big guys, and she will be busy until the New Year." She loves to be lively, and the Lantern Festival should come to town. ”

Shang Yuanyuan was a little disappointed when he heard this: "I thought that Sister Xiaoyu came back to see her, but I didn't expect her to be so busy." ”

Cheng Ge'er said: "You can go to the pharmaceutical workshop to help make medicine, the second sister likes workers who don't need money the most." ”

Shang Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and he really wanted to go.

Shang Xiucai patted her head with a smile and said, "Don't make trouble for your sister Xiaoyu, the pharmaceutical workshop is already so busy, and she will be distracted to take care of you when you go." ”

Yuan Yuan was unhappy when she heard it, but she knew that her father was right, so she could only nod and say, "Okay." ”

However, looking at so many things, he happily greeted Ah Jiu and Peaches: "Carry it to my father's yard, I want to look at the gifts with my mother." ”

"Huh." Peaches responded, picked up a load of gifts with Ah Jiuyi, and left the study to the backyard.

Yuan Yuan was very well-behaved, and before leaving, he also saluted Gu Jin'an and them.

Shang Xiucai looked at her happily running away, and there was worry in her eyes in addition to love.

Gu Jinan saw it, and became even more determined to worship Shang Xiucai as a teacher...... In the past two years, Shang Xiucai felt that his husband and wife were old and had no son at home, so he was very worried that Yuan Yuan would be bullied by his in-laws after he got married in the future.

"Is the gentleman in good spirits?" Gu Jinan sat down and asked, "If you are still in good spirits, come with us to meet Mr. Ouyang, I just came back, I have to go and see his old man." ”

Shang Xiucai hadn't been out since he got better, and he thought about it and said, "Cheng, I'll go with you." ”

Because of Brother Cheng'er's relationship, he has also met Mr. Ouyang, and he really admires his knowledge.

"Brother Cheng can be taught by him, it is a blessing from his previous life, Brother Cheng has to learn from Mr. Ouyang."

Brother Cheng smiled and nodded: "Uncle Shang, don't worry, I will definitely study hard." ”

ran over again to pull Shang Xiucai: "Uncle Shang, let's go." ”

Shang Xiu got up, and the big guys went to the town together.

The summer house in the town has now become Mr. Ouyang's residence, and the plaque of the summer house has been taken down.

"Brother Dexing, Brother Jin Sheng, you wait outside first, let's go first, and then call you after asking Mr. Ouyang." After Gu Jin'an got off the mule cart, he said to Gu Dexing who was sitting on the mule cart.

Gu Dexing and He Jinsheng said with a little apprehension: "Eh, you guys go in first, we'll wait outside." ”

Gu Jinan nodded, let Feng Lian accompany him outside, and Zezi took the New Year's gift and entered the house.

Mr. Ouyang was sitting in the flower hall of Tingshui Garden, looking at Tingshui Garden, and when he saw Gu Jinan and them coming, he just said with a lack of interest: "I'm back." ”

Next to Mr. Ouyang sat Zheng Qing.

The little guy is very well-behaved, and his sitting posture is meticulous, and when he saw them coming, he called out with a smile: "Uncle Shang, Brother Jin An, Brother Cheng." ”

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, after Ouyang Hu's promise to teach Cheng Ge'er was known by Zheng County, he was so sour that he couldn't eat well, and his meals were not fragrant.

Why did all the good things happen to the Gu family? His brother Qing is not bad.
