"Laughing at what?"

Gu Yu bent the corners of his mouth aggrievedly, and his eyes drooped like a puppy.

In the past, she would never have asked this question. Although I know that Xu Ling is different from before, I am still a little apprehensive when I ask this sentence.

No matter how close the relationship between people is, it is separated by a membrane, and it is impossible to be as intimate as knowing oneself.

It was impossible for Xu Ling to be angry because she was talking to him like this, but Gu Yu didn't know, yes, she reacted quickly, restrained her expression, and pushed Xu Ling with her arm.

"Go and rest, I'll be ready in a moment."

Xu Ling was silent, leaning on her shoulder to observe her expression.

Her eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, the bridge of her nose is high, and her side face is also very unique.

This is, really jealous?

"Heaven and earth conscience, I haven't even slept a whole night outside, I can't eat enough and sleep well, my mother said that I am thin and black, and I am much uglier. I've seen a lot of little ladies, but I hate them when they see them. ”

Gu Zhen was still pale at first, and when he listened to it, he couldn't help but smile, and the corners of his mouth curled.

Xu Ling let go of the hand holding her and walked to the side of the board to see her expression.

Gu Zhen said in shame: "You are a person, you will talk nonsense." ”

"You wronged me again, look at me, am I dark and thin?" Xu Ling said aggrievedly.

Gu Yi half-tilted his face at this time, and looked at his appearance seriously.

I don't know when Xu Ling's height has grown a little taller, his back is straight, and he looks much more energetic. He didn't look crooked in the past, but he was a bad person, born from the heart, and he didn't like it when he looked at it.

Now the person is clean and clean, although he is a little tired after a long journey, his eyebrows and eyes are clean, his facial features are delicate, and even the stubble does not look sloppy, but makes him look a little haggard, which makes Gu Zhen's heart tighten.

"You are dark and thin," Gu Zhen said, tears of distress sliding down like beads of broken thread.

Xu Ling was anxious, and hurriedly wiped her tears: "Why are you still crying?" ”

"You worked hard outside, I heard my father say, you still met Jiang bandits?"

"Oh, it's not a big deal," Xu Ling didn't want him to worry about it, and deliberately praised the avenue: "Whoever goes out to do business and doesn't encounter some river bandits and mountain bandits, then it's not called a businessman." I know a businessman who is a good friend of mine, and he told me that if I encounter Jiang bandits five times a year, as long as you give money, it is not a trouble. ”

"Five times? How dangerous that is! Gu Yuxiu frowned, "Why don't you buy some land and don't go out at home?" ”

Xu Ling said with a smile: "That's what I think, go back and find Sun Baoyao to buy me some land in the township, and find someone to plant land for us, but I opened a shop in Quanzhou, and I have to go to see it from time to time, don't worry, I will definitely accompany you for a longer time next year." ”

"Phew!" Gu Zhen smacked at him, blushing and said, "Where did you ask you to accompany me at home, I was afraid that you would be in danger!" ”

Xu Ling smiled, leaned over and kissed her on the face, "I don't believe it, don't you really miss me at home?" ”

Bummer!

Gu Yi waved his hand to chase him, "If you are idle, just burn the fire for me and don't make trouble!" ”

Xu Ling was afraid that if she continued to speak, her face would explode, so she sat in front of the pot with a smile and added firewood to the fire.

After a while, Xu Ping and Xu An also came over with the eldest girl, and Xu Ling had to follow these little ones wherever he went.

Xu Ling hugged her daughter, teased her nose, and Gu Zhen said: "Master Fan said, tell you to give the eldest girl a big name, what kind of genealogy does he want to write for our family." ”

"Poof..."Xu Ling almost laughed out loud, "Our family is not a big family, the old man is actually thinking about writing a family tree?" ”

"Ahem!"

Fan Shiqing's coughing sound came from outside, and Xu Ling hurriedly changed his words, "It's very far-sighted." But even if you don't write a family tree, you should also give the eldest girl a name, do you have any ideas? ”

"I haven't read again, Fan Fuzi said a few names, Xu Manxiang, Xu Xiufang, which one is better?"

Xu Ling: "These two names...... Which one does the big girl prefer? ”

The eldest girl looked at her father with big round eyes, and shouted crisply: "Daddy! ”

Xu Ling: "......"

The girl didn't seem to be able to understand these things very well, Xu Ling thought for a while, "It's better to call it Manxiang, may she be like Zhilan, with a dark fragrance in the room, full of fragrance." We have such a little baby in our family, and we can also get some fragrance, okay? ”

The big girl grinned and showed two small front teeth like rabbits, "Okay! ”

Fan Fuzi also nodded with satisfaction, "I also think this name is good, she will be three years old after the New Year, and she will be able to read and write with me." ”

Xu Ling felt a little funny, Fan Shiqing is addicted to teaching?

He stayed out for a while, and when it was difficult for him to come into the kitchen, he went back to his room.

Xu Ling asked his younger siblings: "What does Fan Fuzi usually do at home?" ”

"He taught us to read and write, and then we just ate and basked in the sun, otherwise we would stay in his house and tell him not to go out."

When Xu Ping and Xu An talked about Fan Shiqing's behavior, they also felt that he was weird.

Xu Ling was dumbfounded, Fan Shiqing has been in prison for more than ten years, it is estimated that it has become a habit, and he is very unsuitable for the outside world, and teaching children to read can also make him less boring.

Previously, he asked Fan Shiqing to teach Xu An to read, but he was still a little dissatisfied, and he thought that women didn't have to read and write, even if they wanted the girls in the family to study, they should hire a female master.

Now I even want to teach the big girl together, I guess I'm so bored that I can see it?

When Xu Ling came back, the family had already finished lunch, and Gu Yu made him hot noodle soup alone, a bowl of hot noodle soup went down, Xu Ling was warm and comfortable, and sleepiness came up.

Xu put the hens brought back by Xu Ling into the vegetable field in the back garden, and raised some chickens and ducklings at home, all of which were also circled in the back garden, and it was cold in winter, and a lot of them died, and now there are only seven or eight of them, and they will raise another batch in the spring.

Xu Ling went back to the house to sleep, and told Xu Ping and Xu An to invite his father-in-law's family to come to dinner at night, and the things in the car were moved to the house.

After the new house was built, it had to be dried and ventilated, because Xu Ling didn't really live in it before leaving home.

Now that they have moved into a new house, the two-story small wooden building between him and Gu Yu already has the atmosphere of human habitation, but it lacks decoration, and it looks empty and a little cold.

Before the year, you can take your family to the market to see what wine you need to buy, the family must have the appearance of home, and there are still those trees in the space, and the spring will be warm after the year, and you will find an opportunity to get the fruit trees out and plant them in the yard, peach trees, pear trees, fig trees...... There should be no shortage of fruit to eat next year, right?

The room where Xu Ling and Gu Yu slept, a new set of yellow rosewood furniture, beaded curtains covered the bed, and Gu Yu's dressing table was placed in the window, pushing open the window, you could see the empty courtyard, and further away, it was the village under the mist, and one or two villagers walked by from time to time.

Xu Ling was content to observe his small home, went to the space to take a good bath, changed into clean clothes, came out and wrapped himself in a quilt and fell asleep.
