Chapter 34: He was afraid

In the evening, the village chief came to the Gu family's courtyard with the title deed.

Su Mo was busy with dinner, and Gu Ping'an, who was playing in the courtyard, saw the village chief coming, hurriedly greeted him, and asked Gu Xingnian to call his mother.

Gu Xingnian patted her little chest and nodded, and ran into the kitchen with her calves kicking, Gu Jinnian stared expressionlessly on the side, always feeling that her sister was so stupid.

There is no door in the kitchen, and it is not far away, so just shout, and my mother can hear it.

Gu Xingnian, who didn't know that he was a little stupid in the second brother's heart, was stepping on his feet to look at the dishes in the pot, swallowing his saliva frantically.

Su Mo waved the spatula, thinking that Gu Xingnian was hungry, and said with a smile: "The dish is ready, do you want to taste a little first?" ”

"Don't, don't."

Gu Xingnian came back to his senses, and his little head shook like a rattle.

"The village chief's grandfather is here, and my brother asked me to tell my mother."

The village chief is here?

Su Mo paused, thinking that he should have come to deliver the title deed.

She hurriedly took out the vegetables in the pot, poured water into the pot, and pulled out another stick of wood to make the fire smaller.

"Come, mother will take you out."

Su Mo wiped his hands with a rag, bent down to pick up Gu Xingnian, and walked out.

The village chief is already in the courtyard.

"The title deed is done."

He took out a piece of yellow paper from his arms and handed it to Su Mo.

"I have also inquired about the boats going to Huzhou Mansion in the past two days, which are one quarter at noon tomorrow, three quarters at Shen hour, six quarter at the hour after tomorrow, three minutes at Youshi, and one quarter at Hai hour."

There was a pause, and his tone was a little concerned.

"You go out alone, I'm afraid it's not safe, if you don't mind, I'll arrange for two people to go with you?"

Su Mo took the title deed and kept in mind the time period that the village chief said, but the main purpose of this trip was to sell the game stored in the system, so it was not okay for people to follow.

"No, no, I can do it myself."

She shook her head, glancing at the three children.

Gu Ping'an took Gu Xingnian to squat and play, not paying attention to what they said at all, but Gu Jinnian stood aside and listened without changing his face.

Su Mo thought for a while and said, "It's just that when I go out, I won't be able to come back every four or five days."

If so, see if you can find someone to take care of your three children for a few days.

I will give you silver, twenty pennies a day. ”

"Cheng, you just know it in your own heart,

When I went out, I went to my place, opened the road, and when the time came, I could use it at the dock of Huzhou Mansion. ”

The village chief did not persuade again, nodded, and said:

"As for your three children, that's easy to say.

Cihai's family is close, and he doesn't go to sea, and your three children often play with his son Qingzhou, so I'll just talk to him when the time comes. ”

And so it was settled.

Su Mo held the title deed and breathed a sigh of relief.

She smiled lightly and thanked her, and invited the village chief to stay for dinner.

It's just that the village chief waved his hand: "No, I'm waiting for me at home." ”

Su Mo listened, didn't force it, and sent the village chief out of the courtyard.

Gu Jinnian followed behind her, his eyes were cold, like a threatened young wolf, guarded and panicked...... There is also a hint of confusion.

"You're leaving us?"

Gu Jinnian stared at Su Mo deadly, for fear that Su Mo would nod or avoid it.

Now his life is very comfortable, he is wearing new clothes, he can eat hot meals every day, he can take a comfortable hot bath at night, and the bed she sleeps on is a bamboo bed made by herself.

But in the dead of night, the darkness enveloped him, and the fear in his heart was infinitely magnified.

He was scared.

Afraid that the woman who was good to them in front of her was tired of taking care of them.

Afraid that she felt that they were dragging her down and chose to leave.

I'm even more afraid that everything in front of me is fake.

I'm afraid it's just a beautiful bubble.

When the bubble is exposed to the sun, there is a bang......

When they woke up from their dreams, everything turned into nothingness, and the mother who beat and scolded them was still alive.

He still slept on the cold hay, wearing the old clothes that the villagers had given him to him, and he was dirty and smelly.

Hungry, I followed my brother and sister to the beach to pick up conches to satisfy my hunger......

Su Mo turned around and met Gu Jinnian's gaze, she was stunned, and then raised her hand and put it on Gu Jinnian's shoulder.

She explained earnestly: "I'm going to go far away, but I'll be back in five days at most." ”

Gu Jinnian pursed his lips, "Then I'm going too, don't worry, I won't drag you down!" ”

I'm not a burden, don't leave us behind.

Gu Jinnian lowered his eyes, covering the yin owl under his eyes, his little hands clenched into fists, and his heart was thumping and accelerating.

If you have to go, then ...... Then I will definitely find a way to make you never leave us......

Su Mo didn't know what Gu Jinnian was thinking, she looked at Gu Jinnian and said seriously: "I know, we Jinnian is very powerful."

But my attention span is limited, what if I accidentally lose you? ”

This time is different from the past, and she can't touch risky things.

Su Mo also guessed what Gu Jinnian was worried about.

He is too smart and has too many eyes, which also causes him to think too much.

Su Mo's hand on his shoulder moved to his head, and after more than twenty days, Gu Jinnian's hair was no longer as dry as before.

Rubbing Gu Jinnian's head, Su Mo smiled lightly and said patiently: "You just stay at home obediently and take care of your sister."

Relax, I won't leave you. ”

Gu Jinnian lowered his head silently.

Su Mo also guarded patiently, waiting for him to figure it out by himself.

It didn't take long for Gu Jinnian to speak, and his tone softened a lot.

"Really?"

"Of course, I will always grow up with you."

Su Mo smiled, stood up, and stretched out his hand in front of Gu Jinnian.

"Okay, let's go in and eat, otherwise the food will be cold."

Gu Jinnian raised his eyes slightly and looked at the hand in front of him.

Because of the habits developed in the last days, Su Mo had a very resolute attitude towards medicine, and it must be used on the tip of the knife.

Except for the time when I used the bamboo bed, the skin cream has been stored in the dresser.

Because of this, she has many small scars on her hands, and several thin calluses.

Gu Jinnian put his hand up, and the warmth spread from the palm of his hand, reaching the tip of his heart.

At dinner, Su Mo told him that he was going to go far away.

Gu Ping'an reacted very much, the bowl didn't hold it, it fell directly to the ground and fell apart, and the steaming food was scattered on the ground, stained with dust.

"Mother, don't you want to be safe?"

Gu Ping'an is different from Gu Jinnian.

He has the responsibility of being an older brother, and when he was disgusted with his three children, he took on the responsibility of taking care of his younger siblings like a little adult.

But he doesn't have so many eyes, and he is not as mental as Gu Jinnian, he is just an ordinary child, and he longs for his mother's love in his heart.

This will hear that Su Mo is going to go far away, and subconsciously think that his mother is going to abandon them.

Gu Xingnian on the side also put down the bowl in a daze, reached out and grabbed Su Mo's clothes, she didn't say anything, just shouted weakly.

"Mother......

Don't leave the apricot year behind.

"What do you think, my mother will come back in a few days."

The two villains looked at themselves pitifully, Su Mo sighed helplessly in his heart, raised his hand and rubbed the top of Gu Xingnian's head.

"Mother will not leave you alone, never."
