"Why, you don't recognize me?" Lin Jun raised his eyebrows, and Qingjun's face showed a hint of ridicule that did not match his temperament, inexplicably with a bit of ruffianism, but he was not angry, so that people could not afford to have annoying emotions, and there was no sense of disobedience that made people feel wrong.

"How can you not recognize it, haven't we seen it in the academy? Brother Lin ......" Gu Changning smiled sweetly at him, his eyes flashed by his handsome face, and he couldn't help but say in his heart, he was only eleven years old, and he had already shown that extraordinary handsome temperament, you can imagine what kind of handsome young man she will grow into in the future, and she doesn't know how many ignorant girls she can deceive at that time, she feels that this person is a scourge just thinking about it.

But it's strange, she remembered that her brother once mentioned that this Lin Jun's family background is similar to theirs, and it can even be said that it is not as good as them, his father died very early, and there are only two people in the family, he and his widowed mother are the only two people in the family.

Can such a person raise such a graceful bearing?

"Thanks to my sister of the Gu family, she still remembers me." Lin Jun said with a smile.

He knew that Gu Huai'an's sister was very clever when he was last time, and now it seems that it is not only shrewd.

The two of them were so pretending to be polite for a while, and Gu Changning saw the calm expression on his face, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and secretly pondered it.

Did he see her performance just now?

"What is Sister Gu thinking?" Lin Jun saw that she kept rolling her eyes, as if she was thinking about something in her heart, and raised her eyebrows again and asked.

"I'm wondering, how long has the Lin family brother been standing here." Gu Changning asked tentatively.

When Lin Jun heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes were as quiet as a cold pool, with a bit of indescribable meaning, and said, "It's not too early, it's not too late, it's only two steps slower than the two aunts just now." ”

Isn't that all seen!

Gu Changning twitched the corners of his mouth, and suddenly alerted him in his heart, "So, you heard all our conversations?" ”

"That's not true, the wind shook my ears when I first walked all the way, and I couldn't hear clearly, and when I got closer, the two aunts had already left, but I didn't hear a whisper." Lin Jun said very sincerely.

This kind of nonsense will not be believed by her three-year-old cousin, Gu Changning twitched the corners of his mouth again, and said directly: "That's the best, I think the brother of the Lin family is not such a person who likes to tell right and wrong, right?" ”

Lin Jun looked at her sharp retort, half curious and half puzzled, if he remembered correctly, Gu Huaian had said that his sister was only eight years old.

How can an eight-year-old child have so many changes?

He thought so, but said, "Don't worry, I don't have the spare time to go around gossiping about others." ”

Gu Changning's face turned black in an instant, and he looked up and glared at him.

Listening to the meaning of his words, he is the one who has the leisure time to go around gossiping about others?

"I don't know why Brother Lin suddenly came to our village, I remember that your family doesn't live in the town?" After receiving Lin Junze's assurance, Gu Changning didn't bother to maintain the illusion on the surface, and directly questioned him.

"Yes, my family does live in the town." Lin Jun bowed, "It's the first time I've come to Xinghua Village, because my aunt and grandmother married into Xinghua Village, and I'm coming to visit her old man." ”

"Grandma?" Gu Changning was a little surprised, "I don't know which family it is, maybe I recognize it?" ”

She heard her brother say that when Lin Junze's father was still alive, their family lived in Linjia Village, which was far away from Xinghua Village, and usually the farmhouse family would not marry too far away from their daughters, at most a few villages away.

Linjia Village and Xinghua Village are separated by two towns.

Lin Jun was silent for a while, and said a surname, "I don't remember my aunt's original name, I only remember her surname Cui, and my grandmother has the same surname." ”

The corners of Gu Changning's eyes twitched suddenly, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart, Grandma is your grandma's sister, isn't that the same surname?

But she didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party only knowing one surname.

After a woman gets married, her surname is preceded by her husband's surname, and usually others will call her a certain name when calling her new daughter-in-law, like her aunt's surname is Yang, and her father's surname is Gu, so others should call her aunt Gu Yang's family.

It's just that it's too troublesome to call back and forth like this, so many people omit the surname Gu and directly call her A-Niang as Yang's.

There are also people who are not called by their surnames, for example, some people will call Yang Huiyun Gu Shan's lady, Gu Shan's family, or Changning her mother.

Most of the people who will call their names directly are close to them.

Lin Jun is obviously not among them, and it is not strange to know that he only has a surname.

After all, he said that he was looking for his aunt and grandmother, but there were several twists and turns in the middle.

Of course, there will be people who call each other by their full names, but most of them are not good tones.

The thought in Gu Changning's mind flashed quickly, and he returned to normal in an instant, and continued to ask, "Then do you know anything else about her?" Like how many people are in her family, or what are the markings? ”

She knows a few people surnamed Cui, but she can't guarantee that she knows everyone in Xinghua Village, so she wants to ask more clearly and carefully, so as to get rid of those who don't meet the situation.

"Well, I think I should have a cousin, as for the rest...... I don't know. Lin Jun touched his nose and said.

Gu Changning frowned, feeling a little difficult.

His information is too vague, there are more than 100 households in Xinghua Village, large and small, with about four or five hundred people, excluding one-third of the Gu clan, and two-thirds of the population.

Isn't looking for someone here looking for a needle in a haystack?

The household here refers to a family that has been divided, such as those who have several brothers who have become a family and still live with their parents or grandparents, and those who have not separated are only considered one household.

Lin Jun only said such a little bit of the situation, is it possible for her to go door to door to ask whose grandmother's surname is Cui?

Lin Jun saw her meditating on her face, and looked like she was seriously helping him find someone, paused, and provided another piece of news, "I remember, I seem to remember that my grandmother said before her death that my aunt lived in the southwest of Xinghua Village......

"Southwest?" Gu Changning blinked, and there was a feeling of instant clarity, "That's easy, there aren't many people in the southwest, I'll take you over first, and then go home to deal with the birds I just caught." ”

After saying that, she shook the bag in her hand.

The three birds had already tied their claws with ropes when she caught them, and at the moment, I don't know if they were tired from struggling or what, they all fell silent, and only moved their wings from time to time to show that they were still alive.

Gu Chang was willing to send him to his aunt and grandmother, also because the southwest and west were not far apart, and there was only a forest in between, so she could go directly through the forest from one end to the other, so she didn't feel troublesome.

Xinghua Village is surrounded by mountains and forests, and the mountain range it is backed by is in a west-north direction, and the northernmost part of the village is a field near the foot of the mountain, and most of the villagers live around this field, so there are the most people living in the north and near the east.

Although there are fields in the south and east, they are less than a quarter of the north, so there are fewer families living in the south, and the south is also in the direction of the village entrance.

In addition to the above places, most of the rest of the places are dense forests, and there are several families scattered around the forest, and Gu Changning is one of them.

Of course, there are not only forests on the edge of the village, but also a few small forests in the north and northeast of the village, but the area is not large, and few people will go to these small forests to collect firewood, so except for the children in the village, most of the adults will not go.

Gu Changning never went to those small forests to play because of the family in the north, and her family lived in the west, so she was very familiar with the surrounding forest terrain, and she was no stranger to the southwest.

At this moment, she led Lin Jun to that end, and after a while, she arrived in front of several houses in the southwest.

To be honest, she is not very familiar with these families, because these families are also closed in the blue sky and daylight, and Gu Changning sometimes sees the scene of closed doors when he sneaks here.

In addition, the forest here is dense and shading, and when you get close, you always feel that there is a cool cold wind coming, it feels like no one has lived for a long time, slightly eerie and terrifying, no one in the village wants to come here, and even Gu Changning rarely goes this way.

She didn't expect Lin Junze's aunt to live in such a place, and she was half surprised and half excited to come over and find out.

To be honest, if it weren't for the faint light of candles in these houses at night, and the indistinct voices could be heard from inside, it proved that there were people living in them, and the children in the village might have thought that this place was a haunted house to strengthen their courage.

"Eh, what's the matter with you?"

Gu Changning had just stopped and was about to speak to Lin Junze, when suddenly the door of a house opened, and a woman poured a basin of water in front of the door.

She had never seen these two children in a few homes around her, so she couldn't help but be a little curious.

"Oh, this aunt, that's it, let's find an old woman surnamed Cui, do you know?" As soon as he dozed off, the pillow came, Gu Changning hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"Grandma surnamed Cui? Oh, the family standing in front of you is, that family only lives with the old mother and son, is it the person you are looking for? This aunt was still very enthusiastic, and explained the neighbor's situation in great detail in three or two clicks.

"Yes, yes, what we are looking for is this family, thank you aunt, I have peanuts here, you can take them back and give them to the children at home." Gu Changning took out a handful of peanuts packed into a cloth bag and handed them over, and said with a sweet smile.

"Ouch, you child, you are so kind, and my aunt didn't help much...... "The woman said this, but she took the peanut with a smile on her face.

In this year, in addition to their own fields, most farmers harvest only barely enough grain every year, although this handful of peanuts is small, it is still food.

"......" Lin Jun, who was standing on the sidelines, was silent, and when he heard his aunt's crisp voice in his ears, he said, "Next time I have time to come to my aunt's house to play~", I saw Gu Changning walking towards him with a "eh".

"You're passionate about everyone." Maybe it was because he thought of Gu Changning's appearance when he first met her who was not afraid of life, but Lin Jun said it in a hurry.

"Passion?" Gu Changning smiled at him and said, "Not necessarily, this is just a means of survival." ”

Lin Jun felt more and more strange, he looked at Gu Changning, and said the question in his heart: "Why do I sometimes feel like you don't look like an eight-year-old child?" ”

"How many times have you only met me?" I don't know if it's because he bumped into his other appearance and gave up on himself, Gu Changning didn't think about hiding his true appearance anymore, and said, "Besides, the mind has nothing to do with age, how do you know that I wasn't born precocious?" ”

Lin Jun twitched the corners of his mouth: "You really dare to say it." ”

In history, there are some precocious children who are called prodigies, they have been talented and intelligent since childhood, and Lin Jun, who thinks that he is not stupid, does not dare to say that he is precocious in front of others, and he admires Gu Changning quite a bit at this point.

"I'm just casually saying, why are you so serious?" Seeing his twitching expression, Gu Changning rolled his eyelids and said, "You are so boring, you can't brag?" You can't compare to the old vegetable head in our village, he always said that he had seen fairies, and said that he himself was Dong Yong in his last life, so he said, this person, you still have to have ideals, what if one day it comes true in your dreams? ”

Lin Jun listened to her serious nonsense, and three black lines crossed her forehead.
