From the old man's eyes, Gu Yao saw reluctance, chagrin, and more, but there was unspeakable firmness and fear.

But what are you afraid of? Gu Yao turned around, and walked inward along the sandwich road while thinking, almost knocking over the threshold without realizing it. This appearance, in the eyes of the old man and Meng Xuan, is that he is preoccupied and absent-minded.

Meng Xuan asked Old Man Gu: "What's wrong with the fat girl?" ”

"I told her to take her back to Wanping, and I guess I feel a little uncomfortable."

Meng Xuan was shocked and hurriedly said, "Wait! I didn't say I was going to take her! According to the plan that has been formulated, let's go all the way, can the fat girl stand it? ”

From Fengcheng to the south, through Miyun straight into Shuntian, is the fastest way, normal carriage and horses, about a month; Hurry up, ten days. However, their trip was to walk along the border of the Hetao, go around to Xuanfu, and then enter Shuntian from Yanqing and Changping, which was twice as long as going straight. They still have to arrive in Suncheon before May, so they can only hurry up.

With Gu Yao, how to go? Gu Yao followed, how could he stand it?

The old man sighed.

As Meng Xuan said, it is not appropriate to bring Gu Yao with him. He made such a decision, and he was forced to be helpless, but for the sake of it, he couldn't let the Meng family know. The old man only said: "The five girls can do their fists and feet, and their bodies and bones are not bad, so it's okay." ”

The fat girl's fists and embroidered legs are also called fists and feet? Thinking that the old man Gu came out of his study before, Meng Xuan hurriedly rolled up the map drawn by the old man, and went to find the old father. After Meng Xuan left, Old Man Gu sat alone for a long time before going to the backyard to find Gu Yao.

Gu Yao was sitting cross-legged on the kang practicing calligraphy, his straight back was indescribably stubborn and tenacious.

The old man picked up a handpiece of writing that she had just written, touched it reluctantly, and said in his mouth: "This time I went to Shuntian, let alone two or three months, grandfather can't leave you at home." ”

Gu Yao smiled: "If it's like this, it's very unnecessary. There is a jade lady in the family, not to mention, there is a Meng family, Aunt Xian no longer misses her daughter, just ask me to go to her permanent residence. ”

The old man choked, and said in his heart, the child is older, it's not easy to deceive......

Gu Yao said again: "If grandpa is embarrassed, don't say it, don't say a reason for this little thing." The granddaughter just asked, but didn't say she had to know. ”

She said so, and Old Man Gu had to swallow back his original nonsense and asked Gu Yao: "Didn't you want to go back to Wanping before?" ”

"That was all when I was a child, now-" Gu Yao thought for a while and told the truth, "My granddaughter wants to see her father, and she also likes Fengcheng." ”

entered Meng Shan's eyes, although it was not her intention, Gu Yao admitted that she had a much better life through the Meng family. Moreover, she is also ready to have a childhood sweetheart with Shen Congjun. If you go, I'm afraid it won't be easy.

Gu Yao has careful thoughts, and the old man also has it.

What is the difference between a granddaughter when she was a child and now? Isn't it just the identity of Meng Shan's granddaughter? This identity, the old man also wants to use it - since his granddaughter was recognized by Meng Shan, he, the commander, has vaguely become the head of the four affairs. If it weren't for his age, he would be willing to impact Liaodong Commander Tongzhi!

However, the granddaughter can't stay, because—

"If you continue to stay in Fengcheng, grandpa will be so worried that he can't sleep at night, do you still want to stay?"

"It's so serious-" Gu Yao pondered for a moment, went through the people and things around him, locked the spearhead in the big room, fixed it on Gu Jin's father and daughter, and said with a regretful face: "Then the granddaughter should go." ”

Old man Gu touched her hair in a dejected manner, Yu Niang came in, slapped the old man's hand away, pulled Gu Yao to sit by the kang, pulled the burden in his hand, and revealed a few skins, mainly pure white and gray and white.

"I think the general has already told the girl, and Yu Niang won't say much. The old friend walked around, and he only had this little thing, and he didn't have time to make clothes—the girl took it, and when she saw something, she thought about Yu Niang. ”

So, Yu Niang doesn't follow? Gu Yao grabbed Yu Niang's arm, looked up at the old man, and asked, "I'll go, grandpa won't let anyone take me, right?" ”

Old Man Gu bowed his head lightly and slowly said the reason: "Yu Niang is my person, Dongxue is the Meng family, Zhang Quan and Yuan Fang are all from the General's Mansion, it is not appropriate to go with you." ”

Don't ask Yu Niang to follow, Gu Yao can understand; As for Dongxue, it depends on how she and the Meng family have discussed, ignoring Dongxue's own needs, it is not a matter if she wants to come. When he arrived in Zhangquan, Zhang Sheng settled in Wanping, Zhang Quan was reasonable with the past, and it was far-fetched not to ask him to go; As for Yuan Fang, he is just a master, he pushed this job, the world is big, why should he listen to the Gu family?

Gu Yao couldn't understand why the old man was suddenly so stingy again.

To be reasonable, it wasn't hers who came to Fengcheng before; Now she is told to leave, and it is not her decision. In the past three or four years in Fengcheng, she has no merit and hard work, and there is no hard work and prison...... In short, it's not a child, call her home alone, her grandfather, what do you think?

Or is it that grandpa is a creature that is unreliable?

Seeing that Yu Niang didn't care about the old man, the old man also indulged. This made Gu Yao feel that the old husband and young wife were also very good. When she thought so, she had already collected her mood. After all, for her, going home to her father was enough to defeat all the benefits that existed.

Gu Yao comforted Yu Niang: "Grandpa is so old, he will be seventy in two years, it's time to rest." When the time comes, ask my father to take him to Shuntian Mansion to enjoy happiness, and you will follow Yu Niang. Let's get a horse farm, have nothing to do, and play in the mountains and rivers, more comfortable than now, right? ”

Yu Niang was stunned, and held back her tears for a long time, and then it fell.

Gu Yao cried with joy when she saw her, but Yu Niang's own family knew that she was not worth it for the girl. General, it's not worth the girl's trouble.

After appeasing Yu Niang, Gu Yao took Dongxue to Meng's house. Meng Shan had already prepared, and he didn't hide it, and said directly: "You are the granddaughter recognized by the old man, you can go anywhere, it's good to go back." Just with your father for nearly two years, when the old man is old, and then take you to Baoding to play for a few years, for you to find a mother-in-law, the most suitable. ”

The old man in front of him is really good to himself.

The parting was imminent, Gu Yao didn't pretend anymore, pounced on it, rubbed the old man, and muttered, "Yaoyao listens to Grandpa Meng." ”

Meng Shan circled the people who were whirring with meat, and his heart was soft.

When the people of the Meng family got the letter, they all rushed to Gu Yao's courtyard, and they were lively all day, eating and drinking, until the middle of the moon. People were scattered and sad to the point that Gu Yao couldn't sleep peacefully, so he called Dongxue to palm the lamp and sort out the gifts he got during the day.

Only half of it was sorted out, and Meng Xuan arrived.

After entering the door, Meng Xuan threw Gu Yao a heavy stone ornament, Gu Yao caught it, and said, "This gift is not Uncle Eleven at all." ”

The Meng family attaches great importance to the ceremony, and the New Year's money has to be made in a style, and then the real red sachet is contained. Giving a stone like Meng Xuan in a daze, Gu Yao saw it for the first time. Gu Yao looked at the stone carefully, although it was crude and difficult to distinguish, there was no doubt that it was a cute little tiger. On the tail of the little tiger, there are also four words engraved - Mo Shang Blossom.

At this time, Meng Xuan said: "It's not me, it's Shen Congjun who entrusted me to transfer it to you." ”
