In fact, Su Xiaomu didn't look forward to her birthday tomorrow.

The birthday she was going to have wasn't her real birthday at all.

The original owner was originally sold to the Gu family, since it was to make Gu Jingcheng happy, then of course the original owner's father would make up a birthday eight characters for her that matched Gu Jingcheng.

She didn't know if this Li family knew or not, but it didn't matter if it was true or false now, after all, she came to the Gu family, and it did bring a lot of benefits to the Gu family.

She looked up at the sky, and the sunset on the horizon shone faintly on her face, casting a burst of warmth, but she didn't feel happy.

Su Xiaomu hugged the pillow and couldn't sleep all night.

The next morning, Li stuffed her with a few red eggs when she was still sleepy-eyed, and brought her sister-in-law, sister-in-law and a few children to wish her a happy birthday.

Four children gathered around her bedside and said auspicious words to her one by one, which directly woke her up before she woke up.

"Mother, this is ......"

Su Xiaomu rubbed her eyes, she wondered if she was still dreaming?

"Isn't it your birthday today? I think that a few children usually get so many benefits from you, and they should come and kowtow to you today.

But your sister-in-law and sister-in-law said that you are young and thin-skinned, and I am afraid that we don't like to do this.

One person taught them an auspicious word, which should be a filial piety to your aunt. ”

Li Shi saw that she was holding a red egg in her arms, she had been smiling on her eyebrows today, and she was not as stern as usual when talking to several children.

"You have to thank your third aunt well, if she hadn't been thinking about you, where would you have such a good life now?"

"Yes, thank you, Auntie."

Gu Ruotong is the eldest of the children, and she led her younger brothers and sisters to say a word to Su Xiaomu.

was so solemn that Su Xiaomu immediately jumped up from the bed and thanked them: "No need to bow, no need to bow, just say a few auspicious words, your mind and aunt know that everyone is a family, just put the words of thanks in your heart." ”

"Xiaomu, don't say that, it's because of the family that we want to thank you even more.

No, my sister-in-law and I just told my mother today, you don't have to go to the shop today, rest at home, and bring you delicious food when we come back in the afternoon. ”

The Yin family now also treats Su Xiaomu as a master, who calls her the god of wealth in the family? You can't hold it.

"Yes, your two sisters-in-law are right, you can rest at home today, you don't have to do anything, just enjoy the blessings."

Li also felt that what the two daughters-in-law said was reasonable, and they had to rest more on their birthdays.

"Okay...... Then it will trouble the two sisters-in-law. ”

Su Xiaomu still didn't know much about the current situation, but if she could take a holiday, she wouldn't say much.

If you can rest, you can rest, who is still in a hurry to be a worker?

And on the academy's side, Gu Jingcheng was extremely worried and complicated at the moment, because the mountain chief who had not seen the tail of the dragon in the academy suddenly came to talk to him.

This was the first time he had been in the academy for so long, so he couldn't figure out what the situation was for a while.

It was not the first time that Song Shanchang had seen Gu Jingcheng, although he had never spoken to him, he had heard his name many times from the master of the academy.

I know more that his knowledge is very good, his articles are also very good, and he is a promising young man.

Song Shanchang personally poured Gu Jingcheng a cup of tea, and he kept saying to him with a warm smile on his face.

"How prepared are you for the exams after January? I heard from your master that you gave him a few articles the day before yesterday and asked him to help with the staff, but he was already ready for the exam? ”

"The students didn't dare, but they had a lot of experience in reading in the past few days, so they wrote a few more articles to ask the master for advice."

Gu Jingcheng didn't dare to drink the water that Song Shanchang poured for him, he stood up and bowed to Song Shanchang again and again.

The words were full of admiration for Song Shanchang: "The mountain chief is entangled in mundane affairs, and he should not work hard for his students' own private affairs." ”

"It's not hard work, I know that you are a promising young man, so I plan to introduce you to a gentleman when you go to take the government examination in a month, although that gentleman is not a famous Confucian, but he is also a little famous and admired by many students."

Song Shanchang admires Gu Jingcheng and is willing to pave the way for his future.

But his arrangement made Gu Jingcheng wonder, and after considering his words, he asked Song Shanchang curiously: "The mountain chief is like this to the students, and the students should be grateful, but there is no intersection between the students and the mountain chief, I don't know why the growth is willing to help the students?" ”

"The reason is very simple, you are a good child who is motivated, you read good books and write good articles, your future can be seen by the mountain chief, and helping you now is also equivalent to helping myself in the future."

"As for the rest...... I'll have to go back and ask your wife.

Not long ago, at the third banquet, the pastries she made were very cheap, and she also gave a recipe for a famous soup in the cheap, and my move today can be regarded as repaying your wife's kindness. ”

Song Shanchang touched his beard, obviously he also had a good impression of Su Xiaomu.

"Jingcheng is blessed, you can get such a good wife to plan for you, you say, are you still worried about the unknown future?"

"Don't worry, thank you."

He took a step back and bowed to Song Shanchang, the more grateful he became.

Back in his house, Gu Jingcheng was in no mood to read at all.

He walked aimlessly out of the academy, and his heart was always mixed.

He, a scholar, has always shouted that he wants to get ahead by his own efforts, and for so many years, he has been working towards this sentence.

But it seems that since Su Xiaomu came to their house, he seems to have been touching her all the time, whether it is at home or outside the house, whether it is money or future, she is full of her figure.

A little girl, her body looks so thin, but she can bear such a heavy responsibility, and she is even more powerful than a man like him.

He had been thinking about it in his heart, and somehow he got around to his shop.

He went in and ordered some food, thinking that he would see Su Xiaomu busy in the kitchen through the curtain, but he didn't expect to see her, but saw the second sister-in-law.

"Ruonan, isn't your third aunt in the shop today?"

He grabbed Gu Ruonan, who was serving the food, and pretended to ask casually: "The second sister-in-law seems to be coming to the shop for the first time, right?" ”

"Yes, doesn't the third uncle know? Today is the third aunt's birthday, grandmother said that the third aunt can rest at home for a day without working, the second aunt is here to help my mother, but fortunately the third uncle came early, we will sell things at noon later, and we will go back early, grandmother said, let us buy more delicious food to go back, today is going to have a big event. ”

The little girl probably thought of something delicious in the evening, and her little face was flushed, and she was so happy that she was happy.

But Gu Jingcheng couldn't laugh at the moment, he didn't know that today was Su Xiaomu's birthday, and he didn't know that his wife's birthday was celebrated, and no one in his family informed him.

It seems that he has nothing to do with this matter.

His eyebrows were about to twist into a knot, and there was a sense of irritability in his tone: "I just have something to go home to discuss with my mother today." ”

"Then let's wait for the third uncle to go back later!"
