Chapter 164: I made an appointment to help them reclaim
"No one won't give you time, but it's inappropriate for you to stay in the fishing village for no reason until this matter is resolved."
"I, Xu Jingluo, do things clearly, and I will never get involved in other people's feelings, before your matter is resolved, it is better for everyone to distance themselves."
"Gu Gongzi's injury is almost healed, I happen to know a big brother of the Northern Liang soldiers at the gate of the city, and I will ask him to send you out of the city tomorrow."
As he spoke, he stood up and made a gesture of please.
"It's not too early, Gu Gongzi should go back and rest."
Seeing that Xu Jingluo suddenly became cold to him, Gu Changgong felt powerless in his heart, because he thought about the problem too simply.
is sincere but can't reveal it to the other party, it seems that if you want to win her sincerity, the first thing is to withdraw from the relationship with the second princess of Beiliang.
It's okay to do this, this family business has to be withdrawn after all, and the sooner it is done, the sooner it can be relieved.
"Okay, then I'll quit first, but you can't change your mind during this time, wait for me!" Gu Changgong raised his hand a little helplessly and stroked the top of Xu Jingluo's head.
Xu Jingluo tilted his head to dodge, leaned against the door frame, and raised his eyebrows lightly.
"Do you really think I'm so short of men? If it weren't for you, I'd talk to you about emotional matters? After all, how much do we know? It's too early to talk about feelings. ”
If it weren't for Runtian Yibao recognizing this father, mother and younger brothers and sisters, and being so anxious to marry her to someone else, would she have been a third party for so long inexplicably?
Shame on the dead!
Gu Changgong didn't know what to say, the relationship between him and Xu Jingluo was too complicated, they didn't know each other but had already had children, and the misunderstandings and knots between each other were difficult to solve for a while, so they still couldn't be in a hurry, they had to take their time.
Let's start with withdrawing from relatives, don't covet the love of children for a while.
"Then it's agreed, I'll retire my family and marry you."
"We'll talk about it then." Xu Jingluo's expression was faint.
She didn't dare to have any illusions about this matter, if this family business was so easy to retreat, it would not drag on for eight years.
After all, this man is probably just a hurried passer-by in her life, and she can't take it that seriously.
"Let me send you back to the village, and I'll take care of the rest myself." Gu Changgong spoke without doubt.
"No need." Xu Jingluo is also irrefutable, "If I don't even have this ability to survive, how can I gain a foothold here in the future?" ”
"My children and families need me to take care of them, and I'm not so dependent on a man as I am."
"If you really don't need me to find someone to take you out of the city, then everyone will leave tomorrow."
After Xu Jingluo finished speaking, he turned back and entered the room, closed the door, and stood with his back against the door for a long time.
I didn't hear any movement outside, so Gu Changgong must have been standing quietly outside.
She believes in fate and does not resist feelings, but she will never regard feelings as the only one.
At the moment, they are still prisoners, or slaves of the country, and everyone even eats a meal of meat is a luxury to talk about feelings, what are they doing?
Thinking like this, Xu Jingluo relaxed a lot, washed up and went to bed.
......
Before dawn the next day, she got up and cleaned up, and as soon as she left the door, Gu Changgong leaned against the door, with a faint dark blue in his eyes.
"I'll take you to the docks, you won't refuse, right?"
"Okay, thank you Brother Changgong." Xu Jingluo smiled indifferently and went downstairs.
"Otherwise, Brother Changgong won't give up any kisses, it's not bad for us to be friends."
Gu Changgong didn't answer, and secretly wondered in his heart: Can I still be friends again? You've given birth to two of your children.
"I'll come back and marry you." Gu Changgong said firmly, "You take care of yourself and your children. ”
Xu Jingluo shrugged his shoulders and did not answer.
Gu Changgong continued, "The family needs to hire labor to open up the wasteland, and I will ask Uncle Zheng to find a few reliable people to go to the fishing village for this matter." ”
Xu Jingluo was silent.
The sudden parting of ways with Gu Changgong was also an emergency, and it was really not safe for her to take a boat with a group of men from a girl's house, so she dispelled the idea of hiring workers.
At this time, Gu Changgong's proposal solved her troubles, and the person Uncle Zheng was looking for must be very reliable.
"Okay." Xu Jingluo responded, took out a silver ingot and handed it to Gu Changgong, "Then trouble Gu Gongzi, give me a deposit for this money." ”
Gu Changgong didn't refuse either, and put the money away.
After the two of them had gone out of the inn while talking, they bought enough dry food and a few pancakes on the street, and headed west to the docks.
In the evening, I came to the wharf dozens of miles away, and the river was full of boats, and there was a shipyard that sold fishing boats.
The boats produced are also large enough to be able to fish at sea.
Fishing nets were also sold, and Xu Jingluo bought them all and got on the boat.
"Brother Changgong, there will be a period later." She waved at Gu Changgong, and then propped the boat down the river.
Gu Changgong stood on the shore and felt that he had been abandoned by his own women and children.
"Wait for me~~" Gu Changgong shouted loudly while waving his hand, and watched the ship disappear at the end of sight before leaving.
Xu Jingluo sat on the fishing boat, and after a long time, he turned back and looked into the distance, he was already far away from the dock, and he couldn't see anything.
She couldn't help but take out her binoculars, glanced at the dock, and found that Gu Changgong was still standing there, the corners of his robe flying thoughtfully.
Seven days later, Xu Jingluo arrived at the mangrove forest at the mouth of the sea.
"Fourth sister and fourth sister, it's really you."
Xu Jing'an, Feng Ze'an and others were digging bird eggs on the mangrove forest, and when they saw Xu Jingluo's boat, they ran to the river in surprise and helped carry things.
"By the way, what about my brother-in-law? Why didn't I come back with you? ”
didn't see Gu Changgong at a glance, Xu Jingan was a little sullen for a while.
"Don't brother-in-law, fourth brother-in-law is short." Xu Jingluo said while tying the rope to the trunk of the tree, "Are you still serious about the eight characters yet?" ”
"This~~ Brother Changgong can't have left, right?" Xu Jingan looked lost and disappointed, seeing that he was so sincere, he thought that he was really willing to stay here to marry the fourth sister and be a father to the two little nephews.
I didn't expect it~~
"He went back to Western Wei." Xu Jingluo said, seeing that Xu Jingan looked hurt when he heard this answer, he hurriedly explained, "He was injured and lost, so he has to go back and explain to his family, right?" Wait, he'll be back. ”
Hearing that Gu Changgong would come back, the young handsome man's face took on a smiling face again.
"Did you send the rice back?" Xu Jingluo asked as he went back to the village with them.
"I sent it back, and I have no problem eating it for three or four months." Feng Ze'an held a handful of bird eggs in his hand and said happily, "Sister Jingluo, you have worked hard. ”
Everyone walked out of the mangrove forest and onto the beach.
It has been about twenty days since I left the village, and these days, the village has changed dramatically again, and most of the land has been reclaimed, and there is bare black dirt everywhere.
"Wheat, buds, soybeans, etc. have already been planted." Feng Ze'an pointed to a field in the north and said, "It will be harvested in a few months." ”
"By the way, Fourth Sister, our land has also been reclaimed." Xu Jingan was a little moved and said, "Uncles, aunts and sisters-in-law all helped, and it only took three days to finish the work." ”
"Uh-huh." I also saw it, Xu Jingluo nodded, and his heart was quite moved.
Of the twenty-four families who settled here, only their family had no male laborers, and they were the ladies and ladies who had never worked as coolies, and they had made an appointment early in the morning to help them clear the land.
At that time, after the workers she invited arrived, she would continue to reclaim further north, and the land reclaimed would be divided evenly with the people on the farm, and the more fields the better.
"Mother's mother~~"
Runtian and Yi Bao were playing in the courtyard, and when they saw Xu Jingluo, they ran towards her excitedly, followed by Little Gray Ash and five fat pheasants.
Little Gray has grown up a lot, and it is already a full moon, so he grabbed ahead of Runtian Yibao and happily threw himself into Xu Jingluo's arms.
A pair of cyan eyes do not have the ferocity of a wolf, they are extremely gentle, and their behavior is a little silly like Erha.
"Little Ash, you go away, this is our mother."
Runtian and Yi Bao rushed over slowly, wanting to pull the little gray ash away from their mother's arms, where was the little gray gray, and went straight to Xu Jingluo's arms.
In its eyes, this is also its mother, and it is more like a baby than Runtian and Yibao on Xu Jingluo.
