When Xiaobao heard the sound of horse hooves, he jumped out.

When he saw that the person sitting on the horse was Lord Gu, who was too handsome but often had a cold face.

She was dumbfounded, and quickly stopped, standing aside timidly, blinking her big eyes like black grapes at Gu Hantian.

The little girl didn't understand. My sisters are not at home. Why are you coming to my house, Mr. Gu?

Gu Hantian saw Xiaobao rushing out like a cannonball at first, but when he saw it was him, he hurriedly stood aside.

He saw clearly the flash of disappointment on the little brat's face. He knew that the little brat might have thought that his sister had returned, so he ran out to greet her.

So he got off the horse and smiled tenderly: "Xiaobao!"

Xiao Bao hummed, looked at Gu Hantian's gentle smile, and mustered up the courage to ask: "Why are you alone? Where is my sister?"

"Xiaobao, do you miss your sister?"

Xiaobao nodded seriously and pouted, "Sister hasn't been back for a long time. Xiaobao misses her."

"Xiaobao is so good. Your sister is still in the capital helping the Queen Mother with her illness. When she recovers, she will come home and play with Xiaobao."

"Is that really the case? How long will it take for my sister to come back?" Xiaobao asked weakly.

"almost."

Gu Hantian coaxed Xiaobao and pointed to the horse's back: "I'll carry you up, okay?"

"Okay!"

The little brat immediately smiled happily and left his sister aside. Anyway, Master Gu said that his sister would be back soon, so he just had to wait a little longer! Let's sit on the horse for a while.

Gu Hantian looked at Xiaobao with his eyes curved in smile and his heart softened. He rubbed the little kid's head, bent down, hugged him, and put him on the horse's back.

Xiaobao sat on the high horse's back, his two short legs dangling, and he giggled with joy.

Gu Hantian pulled the reins and said to Xiaobao, "Let's go home."

Xiaobao nodded, feeling that Lord Gu was not as fierce as before, and he became braver.

The little mouth started talking: "Dad, Grandpa and Uncle are at home, and Brother Tiedan is also here."

Gu Hantian nodded, leading the horse forward.

Tiedan, who was drinking tea and chatting with Uncle Li Zhan and Old Wu, was also curious when he heard the sound of horse hooves.

He said to Li Zhan and Wu Lao: "Xiao Bao has been out for a while and hasn't come back yet. I'll go check to see who's here."

After saying this, he put down the teacup and walked out of the yard.

When Tiedan saw Xiaobao sitting high on the horse's back and Lord Gu leading the horse into the yard.

He hurriedly stepped forward with a grin and greeted Gu Hantian: "Master Gu! Why did you come to Taohua Village today?"

Gu Hantian said calmly, "I happened to be free today, so I came to take a look."

"Then come in quickly. Uncle Li Zhan and I were just chatting about the boss. Take the horse and tie it up for me. Xiaobao, we're here. Come on down."

Gu Hantian handed the reins to Tiedan and extended his hand to Xiaobao.

Xiaobao stuck out his tongue and threw himself into Gu Hantian's arms. Gu Hantian hugged Xiaobao with both hands and got off the horse.

Tiedan smiled and rubbed Xiaobao's head: "Little brat, go back and tell your dad quickly that Lord Gu is here."

Gu Hantian took Xiaobao's hand and said gently, "It's not a hurry, just go in together."

"That's fine." Tiedan grinned.

The three of them stepped into the yard.

Li Zhan and Old Wu were sitting at a table under a peach tree drinking tea. They looked up at the gate and found that the person coming was Gu Hantian.

He quickly stood up and greeted with a smile: "Master Gu is here? Come over and have some tea."

Gu Hantian took Xiaobao's hand and walked towards the peach tree.

Tiedan took the gift off the horse's back, put it on the table, and then drove the horse to the stable to feed it water and hay.

Li Zhan poured tea for Gu Hantian and said with a smile: "Come if you want to. Why bring so many gifts? It's a waste of money."

"I came here in a hurry and didn't prepare well. Just some cakes and study tools." As he said that, he took a piece of peach cake from the cakes and handed it to Xiaobao.

"Thank you, Lord Gu." Xiaobao took it with a smile, opened his little mouth, and started eating it in small bites.

Gu Hantian was just about to give it to Li Zhan and Mr. Wu.

Li Zhan hurriedly said, "Master Gu, don't be so polite, we can do it ourselves."

Mr. Wu also smiled and said, "Don't worry, do it yourself."

Even if he were beaten to death, Old Wu would never have dared to imagine that he would go from being a prisoner to being able to sit down and drink tea and chat with the county magistrate one day.

All this is thanks to the little girl Mengyun!

Li Zhan asked in confusion: "How come Lord Gu has time to come to Taohua Village today? Is it..."

Li Zhan glanced at Xiao Bao and found himself unable to say anything.

Gu Hantian understood what Li Zhan meant, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "Don't worry, she's fine. She also has a cure for the Queen Mother's illness, and it's already worked, don't worry."

Li Zhan and Old Wu looked at each other, and their hearts, which had been hanging for many days, slowly settled down.

At this time, Tiedan came over from the stable and joined the chat.

As soon as Tiedan sat down, he asked casually, "Master Gu, are my boss and Brother Maizi doing well in the capital?"

"Okay." Gu Hantian sipped the tea and glanced at Tiedan.

Tiedan felt relieved, took a sip of tea, and said enviously: "This time, Maizi went to Beijing with the boss to broaden his horizons. I'll go there someday too."

Li Zhan smiled and glanced at Tiedan, then said teasingly, "Didn't Mengyun see how affectionate you and Mai Miao were and couldn't bear to separate you? Otherwise, she would have let you go with her."

Tiedan blushed, thinking that he and Mai Miao were currently in a loving relationship, and he felt a little reluctant to leave Mai Miao now.

Oh, forget it. I'd better stay in Lanhai County and guard the base camp.

Gu Hantian thought that time was running out and hesitated for a moment.

He still said to Li Zhan: "Uncle, I have something to do and need to rush back to the capital. This time I just came to see you and tell Meng Yun about your situation. Seeing that everything is fine with you, she will be relieved.

During my absence, if you have any urgent matters, you can go to the government office to find Master Xu Zhengting."

He glanced at Tiedan and said, "Guard the rear area well. If you want to go to the capital, there will be many opportunities in the future. This time is not bad."

"Yes!" Tiedan bared his white teeth and raised his huge fist, "Master Gu, don't worry. If anyone comes to cause trouble, my fists are not vegetarian, I will beat him so hard that his parents won't recognize him."

Gu Hantian nodded, thought for a moment and then gave a warning: "Don't be impulsive. If we can solve the problem with our brains, we won't use our fists."

Tiedan scratched his head and smiled innocently, "I still think it's easier and more convenient to speak with fists."
