Mu Wuchen's carriage was not as small as the carriage she usually made, with a high axis, Gu Xiaoyou's steps were too big, and his feet were empty, and he was about to fall off the carriage.

"Mom." Gu Xiaoyou exclaimed, subconsciously closed his eyes, and waited for the pain to come.

The expected pain didn't come, and a large, warm hand clasped her waist tightly and brought her back to the carriage.

Gu Xiaoyou opened his eyes, and looked at Mu Wuchen's slightly cold eyes, and suddenly felt a little weak: "Thank you." ”

Mu Wuchen's eyes sank, and he reprimanded unhappily: "Why are you so reckless!" ”

"I didn't mean to, who knew this carriage was so high." Gu Xiaoyou said aggrievedly, his eyes flashing with water, as if he was about to cry.

Mu Wuchen's heart softened, and his tone softened a little: "Don't do this in the future, you have to be more careful when walking." ”

"I see, thank you." Gu Xiaoyou pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled flatteringly.

Mu Wuchen shook his head helplessly, held her arm, and sent Gu Xiaoyou to the ground.

"You should consider my words."

Gu Xiaoyou nodded, watched Mu Wuchen get into the carriage, leaned under the window and said, "Be careful on the road." ”

"I see." Mu Wuchen lifted the curtain and said softly with his eyes.

"Cherish, goodbye." Gu Xiaoyou smiled at him, raised his hand and waved.

"Goodbye." Mu Wuchen learned her movements and waved his hand gently.

He glanced at Gu Xiaoyou deeply, lowered the curtain, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go." ”

Lord Wang answered and shouted, "Let's go!" ”

The groom grabbed the reins of the steed: "Ride! ”

The horse neighed, lifted its hooves, and ran.

As soon as Mu Wuchen's carriage ran, several carriages behind him set off, and there was a crackling sound of horses' hooves, and the mighty team gradually disappeared on the path.

Gu Xiaoyou watched the team walk away, then reluctantly retracted his gaze, sighed deeply, and walked towards the alley.

She glanced at her house, the door was painted black, and when she pushed the door, she saw that the main house had a wall already erected.

Gu Xiaoyou hesitated for a few seconds, closed the door again, and knocked on the door next door.

"Who?" Zhou's gentle voice rang out.

"Sister Zhou, it's me, Xiaoyou."

The brown door of the house was immediately opened, and Zhou said in surprise: "Xiaoyou, are you back?" ”

"Well, you want you to take me in for a few days." Gu Xiaoyou pretended to be pitiful.

"What to take in, my home is your home, come in." Zhou took the clothes in Gu Xiaoyou's arms and took her directly into the room.

"I cleaned up the room when I came back that day, and I was still wondering when you would be back, but I didn't expect to use it so soon." Zhou babbled and put Gu Xiaoyou's clothes into the suitcase.

"Sister Zhou, I'll come." Gu Xiaoyou walked over and wanted to help.

"No, you go and sit on the chair, and I'll make the bed for you." Zhou quickly closed the suitcase, took out the futon from the other box, and quickly spread it out.

There was no room for Gu Xiaoyou to interfere at all, Gu Xiaoyou had to sit on the chair and watch Zhou get busy.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at Zhou's busy voice and shadow, and his heart warmed, because the sadness caused by Mu Wuchen's departure faded a little.

"You rest, I'll go prepare dinner." Zhou laid out the futon and walked briskly into the kitchen.

Gu Xiaoyou fell on the bed, listening to the sound of pots and pans in the kitchen, and hooked the corners of his mouth.

It didn't take long for dinner to be ready, and Liang'er returned from school.

"It's time to eat." Zhou called out.

"Here we go." Gu Xiaoyou put on his shoes and came out of the room.

Only then did Liang'er find that Gu Xiaoyou was at home, and happily pounced: "Aunt Gu, why are you here?" ”

"I think you're back." Gu Xiaoyou touched Liang'er's head and coaxed softly.

Liang'er immediately believed it, pulled Gu Xiaoyou's sleeve, sat down in the main hall, and said sweetly: "I miss Aunt Gu too." ”

Wait for Zhou to set up the meal and add soup to Gu Xiaoyou's rice: "Xiaoyou, I'll feed you." ”

"My hands are almost better, I can eat by myself." Gu Xiaoyou shook his hand and took the dishes and chopsticks in Zhou's hand.

Zhou glanced at it a few times, and saw that although Gu Xiaoyou's eating movements were slow, there was no obstacle, so he put his mind at ease and picked up a bowl of rice to eat.

Liang'er ate a few bites of food and asked curiously, "Aunt Gu, why didn't Brother Mu come with you?" ”

Gu Xiaoyou's eating hand paused, lowered his eyes and said, "He has something to do and went back to the capital." ”

"It's a pity, I still have a newly learned ancient text that I want to memorize to Brother Mu." Liang'er said regretfully.

Gu Xiaoyou comforted softly: "It's okay, Liang'er can recite it to me." ”

"Really? Thank you, Aunt Gu. Liang'er said happily.

Zhou put a dish into Gu Xiaoyou's bowl, and said disapprovingly: "Don't pester your aunt, her body still has to recuperate." ”

"Oh, I see." Liang'er suddenly wilted a little, and ate a few bites of food listlessly.

"How can I be so squeamish, listening to Liang'er and reciting ancient texts without getting tired." Gu Xiaoyou said with a smile, and took a bite of food for Liang'er: "After eating for a while, my aunt will go to listen to your endorsement." ”

"Hmm." Liang'er's eyes lit up, and she responded happily.

"You're going to get used to him."

Zhou shook his head helplessly, and Gu Xiaoyou winked at her mischievously.

"You......" Zhou glanced at Gu Xiaoyou with disgust, and remembered the matter: "By the way, the rice paper in Boss Ma's shop has been transported to various shops, and Zhu Cheng has already received the payment......"

"Okay, I know, I'll rest assured that Sister Zhou will do things." Gu Xiaoyou said with a smile.

Zhou shook his head, and told Gu Xiaoyou about the benefits of several shops during this time, Gu Xiaoyou listened to a few words, and his mind suddenly drifted to what Mu Wuchen had said during the day.

The money she earns now may be more when she arrives in the capital......

The sun is shining, and the dazzling sunlight is shining in every corner of Qingcheng County.

In the house.

Gu Xiaoyou watched the workers sweating like rain to build the house, and couldn't bear to say, "You guys take a rest, wait for the sun to light up in the afternoon." ”

"Thank you, we're used to it, and this bit of sunshine doesn't get in the way." The workers rejected Gu Xiaoyou's kindness and continued to build houses.

Gu Xiaoyou persuaded a few more words, but the workers still refused to rest, so she had to go to the kitchen to cook mung bean water, thinking about giving these workers a way to go to the heat.

"These workers can really endure hardship." Gu Xiaoyou boiled mung bean water and complained, "I don't know where Mu Wuchen got it from?" ”

Gu Xiaoyou smiled and shook her head, how could she think of Mu Wuchen again.

Knocking his head in annoyance, Gu Xiaoyou lowered his shoulders.

Seven or eight days had passed since Mu Wuchen left, and the scabs on her hands had healed, thanks to the ointment he had left behind.
