Chapter 55 Wang Yueniang who wants to rub the car
The ox cart staggered along the road, and there were already pedestrians on the road, all of whom were ready to go to town.
Gu Chengyu sat drowsy next to Daddy Gu, there was no shed on the oxcart, Daddy Gu laid a small thin quilt underneath, and it was soft to sit on, otherwise on this uneven road, even if you walk slowly, you will have to bump the meat.
"Dad, how long will it take to get to town?" Gu Chengyu was impatient, and he was still in high spirits at first, looking at the scenery along the road, but after looking at it for a long time, it was all farmland, so there was nothing to see.
"The fifth child of the Gu family! It's only a quarter of an hour from town! What's wrong? But impatient? Evergreen! It's still your home! There are many sons, and there are several grandchildren and granddaughters, you are really blessed! The old king who was driving the car looked at Gu Chengyu impatiently, smiled back, and was a little envious of the Gu family's children and grandchildren.
Father Gu chatted with the old king, and in the long sighs between the two, Gu Chengyu learned about the old king's family history.
There are not many people with cattle in the village, Lizheng's family is one, and there are two cattle in Zhao's family, and one is the head of the old king. The old king had only one son, and when he was still there, the family was doing well, but the last time he repaired the embankment, his son was killed by a stone that hung up and fell. At that time, his grandson was only three years old, and Lao Wang's head and legs were not good, so he could only let his son go, and when he learned the news, his hair turned gray overnight. After two years, the daughter-in-law remarried, leaving him and his wife to live with their grandchildren. The old king had a bad head and legs, and couldn't do any work, so he was ruthless, and took the ten taels of silver paid by the government to buy a cow.
"Evergreen! What's the matter with going to the county this time? Old Wang Tou chatted with Gu's father, and when he left, he saw Gu Changqing and them carrying two sacks on the ox cart, the sacks were bulging, and they didn't know what they were inside.
Father Gu didn't tell Lao Wangtou about the sale of honeysuckle, and he didn't say that he was going to the county seat, but only that he was going to the town.
"It's full of vegetables and vegetables, I just want to take my fifth child to my eldest sister's house to recognize the door, since Xiaobao was born to now, I haven't seen my eldest sister! My eldest sister is busy at home and hasn't been back for three years, so let's stop by to see her. "Gu's father actually has this plan to go to the county this time, he only has one sister, married to the neighboring town Huaihe Town, the family is doing tofu business, living in the town, life is not good or bad, busy on weekdays, even the New Year is not resting, just point to the New Year's people to visit relatives and friends, the host family came out to buy tofu to entertain relatives, naturally the New Year is reluctant to rest.
"Dad, aren't we going to ......" Gu Chengli was a little surprised, didn't he say to sell honeysuckle? When did you say you were going to my aunt's house?
Gu Chengyu was also a little puzzled, last night, his father didn't mention going to his aunt's house! I don't know if I really have this plan, or if I lied to the old king.
"Isn't that on your way to town? Go to the town first, and then go to your aunt's house, this ox cart is only a mile to the town! ”
Before Gu Chengli finished speaking, he was interrupted by Father Gu, who glared at Gu Chengli warningly. His son is honest, don't say that he leaked his mouth, the honeysuckle, they only picked it once, if it was known by the villagers, wouldn't everyone run to pick it? Although I can't hide it in the end, it's good to be able to pick it up twice.
Gu Chengli was about to ask, but he received Daddy Gu's warning eyes, although he was still confused, he didn't ask again.
"It's okay, since your old son and mother went, your Gu Xiu won't go back to her parents' house, if you want me to say! This brother is always close, right? Why don't you want to come back? The last time I came back was three years ago, right? "Lao Wangtou has always felt that Gu Xiu is too snobbish, isn't he just married to a tofu seller in the town? What's there to talk about? I even look down on my own brothers, look, this is only three years ago when I came back, what are you busy with? He doesn't believe that he doesn't have a free time, and that's all an excuse.
Gu Chengyu recalled this aunt, when he was just over a year old, his aunt came back once when he was slack, and took her two-year-old grandson to eat and take it at Gu's house, and the little baby also snatched the eggs left for him by his mother, and pushed him, but the aunt not only blamed after knowing it, but also said that it was all a little baby, so what's the matter? Although he has only met him once, his impression of this aunt is not good, especially since she has the same problem as Lin Liuer, and likes to look at people with her nostrils.
"Isn't that her family busy? It's the same with my brother going to see her. Father Gu answered embarrassedly, in fact, he also felt that his eldest sister didn't want to go back to Shangling Village, his father and mother were gone, and his brother's house only had so many rooms, and they were so full of people that he couldn't even come back and spend the night. Besides, the eldest sister and his mother-in-law don't deal with each other, his eldest sister dislikes Lu's hypocrisy and loves to play temper with him, and Lu's dislikes his eldest sister who consciously lives in the town and is superior.
"Yes, yes." The old king smiled, answered a sentence and stopped talking, there was only the sound of the ox cart on the road, the people in the town had long been left behind by the ox cart, even if the ox cart was not fast, it was better than walking.
The ox cart was quiet, and Gu Chengyu looked sideways at Daddy Gu as if he was thinking about something, is this an awkward chat? We had a hot conversation just now!
The horizon is already a little bright, and it is estimated that it will be the beginning of the day. The farmland on the road gradually decreased, and the town in front of him was already in sight, Gu Chengyu suddenly came to his senses, sat up straight, and the wall of Shanhe Town was already a little close.
"Old Wangtou, will you give me a while?" Suddenly, a woman's voice interjected.
Gu Chengyu looked to the side, huh? Isn't this an acquaintance Wang Yueniang? She's a quick walk, and they've only arrived here in ox carts, and she's going to get to town.
"Yang Laosan's family, you see, this is almost to the town, I still have things on this ox cart, I'm afraid I can't sit down, wait until I come back and take my car!" I'm still in the old place. "Lao Wang's head has a headache when he sees that it is Yang Laosan's family, this woman waits for his ox cart every time, and walks not far from the town, and when he sees him, he says that he wants to take her, and he doesn't know how many times he first comes, and says that it is so coincidental, he has met several times, because the distance is not far, he is embarrassed to collect money, but when he goes home and thinks about it, he feels that it is not right, how can it be so coincidental every time, and they meet on the same road section? It's like waiting for him here. The first few times later, he made excuses not to take her, but she was thick-skinned and sometimes insisted on climbing up, and he couldn't drive her down.
Who should Daddy Gu be when he listens to the voice? As a result, isn't this Wang Yueniang who drilled the grove that day? There are only two men on this ox cart, him and the boss, and a little baby, and she is embarrassed to squeeze up?
"Old Wangtou, you see, I'm tired after walking for so long, so you can give me a while, right? Uncle Gu, big brother of the Gu family, let me come up and rest? Wang Yueniang saw that it was the man of the Gu family and the annoying little baby sitting on the ox cart, and hurriedly called the old king. looked at Gu Chengli, and saw the two hemp bags on the ox cart, I don't know what they contained, I was a little curious, this Gu family brought such two sacks of things to the town early in the morning, and I don't know what they were going to do.
Gu Chengyu tried hard to press the corners of his mouth, looking at the shouting of the eldest brother of the Gu family, it was called a gentle and tactful, and he had goosebumps when he shouted. It's a pity that his eldest brother is a wood. Look, he's looking at his dad blankly!
Gu Chengli didn't understand why he was called, so if he wanted to take a break, he asked the old king to stop! He's not driving the ox cart.
"Yang Laosan's family, you see, we can't sit down either, we're about to go to the town, you can rest when you get to the town!" This woman is really shameless, and it is better to keep her away from the boss.
Seeing that Daddy Gu didn't agree, the old Wang Tou drove the ox cart much faster than usual, and after a while, he left Wang Yueniang behind, and the ox cart rushed to pick up the dust on the road and choked Wang Yueniang.
Gu Chengyu looked at Wang Yueniang jumping angrily in the back, covering her mouth and snickering, and was knocked on a chestnut by his father.
