Dinner was spent with guns and sticks.

"Fukako, your father didn't come down to eat, you brought him this bit of duck meat to eat."

Xia Mu smiled and handed over a plate.

completely ignored the black-faced Huang Lianzhi on the side.

Xia Youzhi glanced at the plate.

Well, this is a lot of roast duck.

At least a quarter of them.

Xia Youzhi sighed twice and glanced at Gu Tingshen, who was shirking.

"Third sister-in-law, no, you can keep Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia to eat."

Gu Tingshen frowned slightly and shook his head.

"Take it, your Uncle Xia and your Aunt Xia will have something to eat in the future, you can take it back to your father first to taste."

Xia Mu smiled and stuffed it into Gu Tingshen's hand.

But Gu Tingshen didn't answer.

"Hehe, I said Cuilian, you treat Shenzi so well, and those who don't know it think it's your son-in-law." Huang Lianzhi sneered.

This meat is so expensive, and it is given to so many others.

Hum.

"What are you talking nonsense!"

Xia Mu turned her head to look at Huang Lianzhi, her eyes sharp.

This man just didn't keep the door open.

If these long-tongued women in the village heard this, they don't know how to spread rumors!

Everyone didn't expect Xia Mu to react so much.

Seeing this, Hu Chunlan hurriedly came out to play the round, "Hey, Cuilian, don't be angry, sister-in-law is joking." ”

Immediately, she looked at Huang Lianzhi again, "But sister-in-law, you should know which jokes can be made and which can't."

If this is to make people listen to it, it is terrible, the young is only seventeen years old, and I don't know how others will arrange her. ”

Isn't this the life of the third family?

Huang Lianzhi was stupid and didn't dare to speak again.

But Xia Youzhi and Gu Tingshen on the side, their hearts sank.

Xia Youzhi glanced at Xia Mu with a complicated expression.

She really didn't expect her mom to react so much.

"Alright, Fukako, you can take it quickly."

Seeing this, Father Xia on the side also hurriedly changed the topic.

"I really don't need to, third brother, I'll go back first."

After Gu Tingshen finished speaking, he glanced at Xia Youzhi on the side, and then turned to leave.

"Hey! Deep Son. ”

Xia Mu saw Gu Tingshen walking out quickly, and she was a little anxious.

Stuff the plate directly into Xia Youzhi's hands.

"Zhizhi, you hurry up and get it to your Uncle Gu." Xia Mu looked at Xia Youzhi and urged.

Xia Youyi was stunned.

By the time she reacted, she had already obediently run out.

"Gu Tingshen, Gu Tingshen, wait a minute."

Xia Youzhi chased after him.

How did this man go so fast?

She couldn't catch up.

At this moment, it was already completely dark.

The village has been closed, and there is not a single pedestrian on the road.

Gu Tingshen heard the shouting and stopped.

He turned his head and looked at Xia Youzhi, frowning, "Why did you follow?" ”

He was just thinking about something, walking faster, and unconsciously reaching the bottom of the mountain.

"Take it."

As he spoke, Xia Youzhi stuffed the plate into Gu Tingshen's hand.

Immediately, he turned around and walked back.

"Yes."

Gu Tingshen's voice was a little dull in this silent mountain village.

Only a few dogs barked in the distance.

Xia Youzhi slowly turned around.

The autumn moon sprinkled on her body, plated with a layer of silver frost.

The two looked at each other silently and did not speak.

Long.

Gu Tingshen said lightly, "Don't worry, everything has me." ”

No matter how difficult it is, it can be overcome.

Xia Youzhi looked at Gu Ting's deep and rough face with a serious look.

I was unconsciously a little stunned.

This tall man is usually ignored by no one.

But because of her, little by little, she softened.

Thinking of it, Xia Youzhi's heart moved.

She nodded slowly.

"Well, I believe you."

I will face it with you.

Hearing this, Gu Tingshen's serious face showed a satisfied smile.

He raised his hand and patted Xia Youzhi's head, "Okay, let's go back." ”

His eyes were full of reluctance.

Xia Youzhi nodded, just wanted to say something.

But I heard a rustling sound not far away.

Looming.

Gu Tingshen's body stiffened.

He couldn't wait to cover Xia Youzhi's ears immediately.

Xia Youzhi's eyes were full of doubts.

She raised her eyes to look at Gu Tingshen.

Under the moonlight, Gu Tingshen's serious face showed an embarrassed look.

She was a little puzzled and wanted to take a few steps forward, but was stopped by Gu Tingshen.

He lowered his voice and said, "Let's go, I'll send you back." ”

After speaking, he pulled Xia Youzhi away.

But Yu Guang still glanced not far away.

He shouldn't have cut corners.

"What's going on?"

Xia Youzhi's brows frowned, and he could only let Gu Ting pull him away.

Gu Tingshen was speechless all the way.

It wasn't until he reached the road that he breathed a sigh of relief.

"What the hell is going on here?" Xia Youzhi wondered.

Gu Tingshen was stunned, and then looked at Xia Youzhi with a smile.

"What's wrong?"

Looking at Xia Youzhi's clear eyes, Gu Ting coughed twice.

He shouldn't have teased her.

He touched Xia Youzhi's hair, "Little child, you don't need to understand. ”

The dirty thing in the village, he didn't want to dirty her ears.

Hearing this, Xia Youzhi retracted his gaze.

Forget it, if you don't know, you don't know.

"So I'm leaving?" She said lightly.

Gu Tingshen nodded, his eyes full of tenderness.

Xia Youzhi turned his head and was about to leave, but he thought of something and turned back again.

"Tomorrow we have to get up early to go back to town, and we have to take the earliest bus to the county." Xia Youzhi hesitated.

Grandpa Gu's leg was injured.

That......

Gu Tingshen immediately understood Xia Youzhi's words.

He smiled, "Don't worry, I'll send you tomorrow." ”

Otherwise, the little girl would have to get up at five o'clock.

He was reluctant.

Hearing this, Xia Youzhi smiled.

"Thank you, Gu Tingshen."

"Alright, let's go." Gu Tingshen hurriedly waved his hand.

"Hmm."

After speaking, Xia Youzhi left without looking back.

If you keep grinding, you won't be able to leave tomorrow.

Gu Tingshen looked at Xia Youzhi's back, and the corners of his lips hooked up with a smile.

He glanced at the large plate in his hand, and the satisfaction in his heart was indescribable.

Xia Youzhi walked around the corner and saw the courtyard of the uncle's house.

Just as he wanted to continue walking, his eyes caught a glimpse of a scene not far away.

In front of the dilapidated yellow mud house, two dogs are glued together.

Xia Youyi was stunned.

The sizzling voice made Xia Youyi instantly remember the small sound he had just heard.

In the light of the calcium carbide fire, she instantly understood something.

At this time, he didn't dare to look at his eyes, and trotted all the way to Xia Guozhong's house with his head down.

"Ahh

Xia Mu exclaimed in surprise and staggered a few steps.

Fortunately, he was caught by Xia Guomin, who was following behind.

Xia Youzhi covered his nose and looked up at Xia's mother.

"Mom, are you alright?"

As he spoke, he hurriedly stepped forward to check.

She had just run so fast and so dazed that she didn't even notice her mother coming out.

Xia Mu patted her chest in shock.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Hearing this, Xia Youzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's the matter? Cuilian. ”

The courtyard sounded the puzzled voice of the second aunt Hu Chunlan.

Xia Mu stretched out her head and shouted inside, "It's okay, Chunlan." I just came back, and nothing happened. ”

Hearing this, there was a sound of washing and scrubbing in the courtyard again.

Xia Mu turned her head to look at Xia Youzhi, "Why have you been there for so long?" ”

After cleaning up the leftovers, she realized that her daughter had not returned.

She was worried that Xia Youzhi was not familiar with the environment in the village and something would happen.

Frightened, she hurriedly called her husband to find someone.

"It's okay, Mom." Xia Youzhi smiled and shook his head, "I just talked to Uncle Gu for a while, and asked him to take us to the town tomorrow." ”

Hearing this, Xia Mu nodded, "That's really hard work." ”

If it was just her and her husband, it wouldn't matter.

Wake up early and walk to town.

But my daughter, I really can't bear to let her be tired.

"Okay, then you go back with your dad first, and I'll go see if there's anything else to wash." Xia Mu smiled.

"I'll just go back by myself, let my dad help you." The way of summer young.

"No, let your dad go back with you."

Mother Xia shook her head, she didn't worry about her daughter's blind walk in the black light.

"I'll go back with Youzhi first, and I'll pick you up later." Xia Guomin on the side said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go back quickly."

Xia Mu pushed Xia Youzhi.

Xia Youzhi nodded, just took two steps, and suddenly remembered something.

She ran back again, grabbing Xia Mu who was about to enter the door.

She glanced at the courtyard, and then lowered her voice, "Mom, you tell my second aunt that Brother Qingren works with us, and the money will not be short." ”

Xia Mu nodded knowingly, "Okay, I'll tell her in a while." ”

"Hmm."

Xia Youzhi nodded and left.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

As soon as Xia Youzhi opened the gate of the courtyard, he saw Gu Tingshen sitting cross-legged on the ox cart.

With a serious face, I don't know what I'm thinking.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Gu Ting raised his eyes and looked at the door.

Seeing that it was Xia Youzhi, that expressionless face instantly smiled.

"Why do you get up so early?" Gu Ting said with a deep smile.

Immediately saw that Xia Youzhi was only wearing a plaid single coat, so he frowned.

"Why don't you wear more, it's cold in the morning." He said.

"Well, I'll put it on in a moment."

Xia Youzhi held the door with his hand and looked at him.

Gu Tingshen seemed to have a layer of water vapor on his body.

"When did you come?" She asked lightly.

"It hasn't been long since I arrived."

Gu Tingshen smiled in a deep voice.

He didn't want Xia Youzhi to worry.

He's been sitting outside for more than an hour.

I went home last night and had a big fight with the old man.

When I opened my eyes until dawn, I really didn't want to lie down, so I got up.

I just want to see his little girl sooner.

Xia Youzhi's eyes flashed.

I didn't believe it in my heart, but I didn't say anything on my lips.

"Then you wait, I'll call my parents."

With that, Xia Youzhi walked into the house quickly.

"Hey, there's no hurry."

Before Gu Tingshen finished speaking, Xia Youzhi had already disappeared at the door.

He shook his head and smiled.

……

On the road.

"Fukako, I'm really bothering you, and I'll let you run."

Xia Mu smiled a little embarrassedly.

It's early in the morning.

Fukako was reluctant to accept money.

Gu Tingshen glanced back at Xia's mother, "Third sister-in-law, you don't have to be polite to me, I'm also a stopper." ”

"By the way?" Xia Mu was puzzled.

When Xia Youzhi heard this, he also looked at Gu Tingshen.

Gu Tingshen nodded, "Yes, I also plan to go to the county seat." ”

"What's the matter with you going to the county seat?" Xia Mu asked casually.

Immediately realized that it was inappropriate, and quickly added, "Hehe, it must be a big deal." ”

Gu Ting smiled lightly and didn't care.

"There is a piece of land in the county and I want to build a vegetable market, and I have a brother who asked me to come back and see if I can do it." Gu Tingshen explained.

It was supposed to be some time ago.

But at that time, the construction site was busy, and he was not available.

Taking advantage of the fact that he came back with Xia Youzhi this time, he planned to take a look.
