The sunset glow reddened the mountain forest, casting golden specks through the treetops on the winding mountain road. Xiaguang pulled the shadows of the two big and two small, and one of them kept chattering: "Hurry up! Slow down, if you can't reach the big yard at night, leave you two to feed the wolves!"
These two figures, two big, two small and four walking, are Gu Qiao Liu's couple, and Gu Ming and Gu Ye's brothers and sisters.
Early this morning, Mrs. Liu didn't know what to do with her nerves, and said to Gu Ye "kindly": "It's getting colder today, your padded coat last year was too short to wear anymore, I'll take you to the town today. Cut some fabrics to make cotton clothes."
Unusually a demon, Gu Ming stood vigilantly behind her sister and asked, "When the shopkeeper Qian came yesterday, didn't he bring fabrics? Why didn't he buy it from the shopkeeper Qian, but ran so far to town?"
"Ming'er, it's none of your business! Before it snows, go chop more firewood and plant it!" Gu Qiao was afraid that his son would ruin their major affairs, so he dismissed his son in one sentence.
Seeing that Gu Ming was in the way, Liu Shi hesitated to go out, and then continued to squeeze out a smile and said to Gu Ye: "The cloth that the shopkeeper sells is left by others, so what's so good? Besides, he is a foot long. The cloth is two cents more expensive than the town. It's like a blood-sucking leech. We won't buy his cloth! Ye'er, you are so old, you haven't been to the town, have you? Take this opportunity to take you to Changchun gain knowledge."
Gu Qiao also joined the lobbying team: "There are sugar cakes, pancakes and fruits in town, as well as fragrant and crispy pancakes. Dad will take you to try it!"
"Dad, Daddy! Xiaozhuang eat cake!" Three-year-old Xiaopangdun, under the pressure of his older brother Dazhuang, shouted to follow him to town.
Gu Qiao and Liu Shi have serious business to do, how could they be dragging their feet with them. After coaxing and coaxing, persuading and persuading, and then promising to bring them back with white sugar cakes and pancakes, they persuaded the little grinder to stop.
Gu Ye watched the couple's "performance" coldly, without saying a word. She wanted to see what tricks the two of them could play. The soldiers will block the water and cover the soil, so she will play with them! Besides, she was also very curious about what the town that the big and big Zhuang longed for was like!
It takes two full days to travel from Qingshan Village to the town. Gu Qiao, a couple with ulterior motives, walked with Gu Ye for an hour, and was caught up by the worried Gu Ming. As a result, the three-person line became a four-person line!
After all, this body is a child, and its bones are weak. After raising it for so long, it has not brought back the deficient body. She walked slowly without speaking, and had to stop and rest from time to time. Although there was a potion to enhance physical strength in the space, in front of two adults and one child, Gu Ye couldn't take it out, so he could only walk behind him one by one.
Gu Ming patiently stayed by his sister's side. When she was tired, he helped her up and offered to carry her many times. They were all rejected by Gu Ye! Gu Ming was only eleven years old, and the mountain road was steep and difficult to walk. He was already struggling enough, and Gu Ye didn't want to increase his burden.
On the side of the mountain road between Qingshan Village and the town, there is a large yard made of stones. Inside is a simple grass hut for passers-by to rest for the night. Those who go in need to pay a lodging fee.
There are no people in the nearby ten miles. There are wild beasts in the mountains at night, and it is definitely not safe to sleep in the mountains. This large yard provides a relatively safe resting place for mountain people passing by.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, there were still several miles of mountain road from the big yard. Looking at Gu Ye again, the soles of her feet must be rubbed with blood blisters. Every step she takes is like dancing on the tip of a knife, and it hurts. She limped like this and fell far behind Liu and the others.
A clear wolf howl came from the dark forest, and Liu shivered with fright. Gu Qiao looked back, frowned, and said impatiently, "So slow! If the wolves come, we won't be able to escape!"
"Dad, you go first, don't worry about me!" Gu Ye's soles hurt a lot, and the anger in his heart was naturally no less than his, and his tone of voice was not much better.
Gu Qiao snorted coldly in her heart: If it wasn't for the few taels of silver, I would be too lazy to care about you! However, he swallowed this useless breath and said angrily: "Come here, Daddy will carry you!!"
No matter what you are doing, you are either a traitor or a thief! Gu Ye pouted, and unceremoniously climbed onto Gu Qiao's back. In the original owner's memory, this father, who had never hugged her, ignored her indifferently. Unexpectedly, there was also a time when he was carried on his back by his father. If it were the original owner, I would be moved to tears. However, Gu Ye looks at ease and can save some energy, why not do it
Hidden Guard, who was following in the distance, saw the little girl's blushing face, and sighed deeply in his heart: "I'm about to be sold by my parents, and I'm so happy!" You can't be happy when you're in town!
In his heart, he was very confused whether he should tell the little girl? However, when his master left, he specially told him that until his life was at stake, he couldn't reveal his identity or wait and see!
After staying in the big yard for one night, Gu Ye secretly put medicine on his feet, and drank some potions to dispel fatigue and replenish physical strength. On the other hand, Gu Qiao and Liu Shi had walked all day and didn't sleep well at night, their faces were exhausted.
Gu Qiao's family of four was walking on the mountain road leading to an unnamed town.
Far away in the capital of Dongling Kingdom, in the mansion of Duke Zhenguo, a beautiful woman in her forties was rubbing a piece of delicate suet jade in her hand, and her beautiful eyes were gradually filled with tears that were crystal clear like dewdrops.
The door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man who was valiant but not angry came in. He was Chu Bufan, the master of Duke Zhenguo's mansion. Seeing his wife crying silently at the half jade pendant again, he sighed helplessly in his heart. He strode over, his hands full of calluses, gently held the beautiful woman's soft weed, and comforted softly, "Are you thinking about Bao'er again?"
"Husband, after Bao'er was born, her body and bones were not good. When she left me, it was not yet full moon. More than ten years later, I am really afraid of her." Tears blurred the sight of the beautiful woman, she raised her head and looked at Zhen Zhen. Duke Guo, his face paled from worry.
"No, our Bao'er auspicious person will be fine. The second and fifth have already set off for Yancheng, and I believe there will be news soon. You are weak, and you should not worry about your thoughts. If her body breaks down, who will take care of her daughter after she is found?" Duke Zhen Guo also had some worries in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it in front of his wife.
It has been almost a year since their family returned from rehab. During this year, the family kept looking for this stray daughter, but there was no news. This time, he let the second son and the fifth son go there. Perhaps their siblings are connected by blood, and they can successfully find their only daughter.
When the incident happened suddenly, after returning to his hometown to get the news of his father's bereavement wife, she had fetal gas and gave birth to a young daughter early. This is the only girl in the three generations of the Chu family, and Chu Bufan, who was the heir of Duke Zhenguo at that time, after six sons, the precious daughter whom she has been looking forward to.
At that time, the Chu family was framed for collaborating with the enemy and treason. There was so much evidence that they could not argue. Even if they asked for a gold medal to avoid death, they still could not escape the fate of being assigned to the frontier. At that time, Mrs. Shizi, afraid of the hardships on the way to exile, and fearing that the people behind her might have some tricks behind, entrusted her little daughter who had just been born to a loyal servant girl.
However, in the past year, they have almost turned Yancheng upside down, and they have never found the maid, let alone their daughter. Mrs. Zhen Guogong washed her face with tears every day, and her sons were frowning. If it weren't for the busy business, Zhen Guogong would have personally gone to Yancheng to find his poor little daughter.
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhenguo wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, took a breath, and said softly but firmly: "You are right! It is said that mother and daughter are connected. Cheng, I will definitely be able to bring my daughter back!"
Duke Zhenguo is not afraid of heaven and earth, but is afraid of his wife's tears. Seeing her finally "clouds and rains dispersed", I was greatly relieved. He took out an envelope and put it on the table in front of his wife, and said, "Yu'er has written a letter. By this time, he and his father should have arrived at Yun Chong Pass."
"Yu'er's kung fu and art of war are as true as your father and your true heritage, but there is nothing to worry about. This time Di Rong is only a small-scale crime, our Chu family started with military merit, and it is only a matter of time to go to the battlefield, let him go to experience. It's fine." Mrs. Zhen Guogong opened the letter, browsed it hastily, and put it away.
"Master, Madam, the two cousins have come to greet the two of you." Chunyan, the maid of Mrs. Zhenguo's personal girl, opened the curtain and walked in.
Duke Zhen Guo stood up and said, "Madam, I still have business to deal with in my study outside. Let Miao'er and Li'er accompany you to talk. Chunyan, stare at your wife and drink the medicine! That camellia outside, and then again. Even the best gardener who poured the concoction can't save him."
Mrs. Zhenguo gave him a somewhat embarrassed look, and said, "Go and do your job! I will drink all the medicinal juice. If there is a medicine that is not bitter and can make up my body, it would be great!"
Jun Li'er gave the Duke and his wife a gift with a smile, and said brightly, "Auntie, I heard that Baili Great Pharmacist has made a new medicine that can nourish qi and blood and strengthen the spleen and stomach."
"Master Baili Pharmacist?" Duke Zhen took back the foot he stepped out of the room, and looked back at Jun Li'er, "It was the fifteen-year-old who won the first prize in the medicine fighting competition, and was able to make a potion more effective than decoction. Baili Pharmacist of better and faster pills?"
"Uncle Hui, it's this person. The new medicine Li'er mentioned is also a pill. Just break it apart and take it with warm water, it's not painful at all!" Jun Li'er and her aunt, Mrs. A bit similar, the corners of the smiling mouth bloom with a shallow pear vortex, full of youthful vigor.
