At the entrance of the village, Gu Beizhi said to Liu Da and others who sent him back, "I'm here, everyone, please go back."

"Farewell." Liu Da didn't insist on seeing him home, said goodbye happily, and left with his brothers.

Gu Beizhi watched them go away, turned around and went back home. It was already dark, and no one in the village came out to hang out, and it was very quiet.

He hurried home along the small road in the village, his nerves were always tense, and even the slightest disturbance would attract his attention, until he saw a person standing with a lantern at the door of his house.

"Small boat."

Holding a paper lantern in his hand, Guan Zhou stood outside the door looking back and forth. When he saw someone approaching, he quickly lifted the lantern to see if it was Gu Beizhi. Hearing his voice, he was sure it was him, and he couldn't help but feel relieved. Take a breath.

"Beizhi, why are you so late today?" He took two steps forward to meet Gu Beizhi.

Gu Beizhi took the lantern in his hand, "I'm delayed by something, let's go in first."

Guan Zhou sensitively noticed that Gu Beizhi was not in a good mood, so he didn't ask any more questions, but turned his gaze around Gu Beizhi, and when he entered the courtyard, "Beizhi, you go wash your hands first, and I'll make you a hot meal." .”

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Gu Beizhi was indeed a little tired, and the kick in the abdomen was still painful. Although the sleeves were treated, he could still see the problem after he noticed it. He had to go back to the room to change clothes.

"What's the hard work? It's hard work when you're outside earning money to support your family." Guan Zhou was afraid that he would be very hungry, so he hurried into the kitchen.

In fact, he put all the food in the pot to warm up, but he felt that Gu Beizhi was very tired today, and he was not in a good mood. He planned to make egg soup, and drinking a bowl of hot soup when he was tired would make his body feel much better.

After Gu Beizhi changed his clothes, he hid the original clothes in the closet and destroyed them when he went out tomorrow morning. If Xiaozhou asked, he would say that they had put them in the store.

Before he came back, he had washed his face, tidied his hair, changed his clothes and there were no flaws. After checking that there was no problem, Gu Beizhi went to the kitchen.

Guan Zhou just took out all the food and set it up. The soup was still in the pot. "Bei Zhi, have you washed it? Wait a minute, the soup will be ready soon."

"Well, don't worry." Gu Beizhi pinched the bridge of his nose and sat at the dining table, "Are the children asleep?"

"Well, last night it was very late, and today I went to play all day again, and I got sleepy early." Guan Zhou put out the soup and put it next to Gu Beizhi, and he also served some rice himself.

I had been worried about Gu Beizhi before, but when I came back to my senses, I found that I was hungry again, so I decided to accompany Gu Beizhi to eat.

The dinner was quite simple, I just fried a minced vegetable, a plate of pickled radishes, and a bowl of brown rice. Since their family didn't have any land, they always bought grain to eat. Gu Beizhi likes to eat rice, so he always buys rice when he comes back. .

"Take two sips of soup first." Guan Zhou made a bowl of soup. Although it was a large bowl, it was only enough for one person.

Gu Beizhi gave half of the egg soup to Guan Zhou, "I can't drink so much, so you can drink some too."

"That's fine, let's eat quickly." Guan Zhou didn't refuse today, and had soup and dinner with Gu Beizhi, talking about the children from time to time.

Gu Beizhi listened and echoed. After the two of them had a meal, Gu Beizhi's nerves that had been tense finally relaxed, and he felt a surge of exhaustion.

"Are you tired? The water is almost hot, take a shower and rest quickly." Guan Zhou copied the table and urged Gu Beizhi to take a bath.

"Just had a full meal, let's take a break." Gu Beizhi also wanted to help, but Guan Zhou refused.

Guan Zhou worked very quickly by himself, fearing that Gu Beizhi would be bored, he went on to tell him what the two children were doing during the day.

"Dabao and Erbao are showing off more and more now. After returning home today, they didn't stay for a while, so they ran out to play with their new toys."

"Er Bao went too?" Gu Beizhi remembered that when they parted in the morning, Er Bao was still asleep.

"Well, I woke up on the road, and I'm more energetic than Dabao."

Guan Zhou babbled on for a long time, but finally he didn't know what he was talking about. When he turned around, he found that Gu Beizhi was propping his head on one hand, but his eyes were closed. He simply calmed down. He was not a talkative person.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks and putting them away, he filled the hot water in a soft voice and carried it to Gu Beizhi's room to make it to a suitable temperature, and then woke up Gu Beizhi.

"Beizhi, the hot water is ready, go take a bath."

His voice was very soft and gentle. Gu Beizhi was sleepy but a little dazed. He held Guan Zhou's hand, "Yes."

Guan Zhou twitched, but he didn't pull it out, so he dragged him to the room, privately thinking that it would be better to hold hands for a while longer.

After walking a few steps, Gu Beizhi was already awake. He realized that he was holding Guan Zhou's hand. After taking a look at Guan Zhou, he always felt that it would be inappropriate to let go now...

When he reached the door of the room, he let go, "Go and rest, I'm going in."

"Yeah." Guan Zhou clenched the hand that had been shaken into a fist, trying to keep Gu Beizhi's warmth.

He glanced at Gu Beizhi quietly, and rubbed his fingers lightly. Beizhi's hands were much thinner than his. Do you think his hands are too rough?

Gu Beizhi took a quick shower, simply packed the barrels, and then lay down on the bed, his stomach hurt even more from being pulled, maybe he has to see a doctor tomorrow.

Enduring the constant pain, Gu Beizhi forced himself to sleep, but unlike in the kitchen where he could sleep peacefully, he could only rest with his eyes closed.

After lying down for a long time, he felt a little drowsy and about to fall asleep, but when he heard the sound of the door being pushed open, he woke up in shock.

Just about to sit up, I heard a softly familiar voice, "Beizhi?"

It turned out to be Guan Zhou, but what was he doing in his room?Gu Beizhi was confused for a moment, Guan Zhou had already walked in, and he couldn't get up again, so he could only pretend to be asleep.

After Guan Zhou called out softly, he walked to Gu Beizhi's side and waited for a while, only to find that he was indeed asleep, so he sat on the edge of the bed and pulled up his sleeves.

When the sleeves were pulled down a little above the middle of the upper arms, revealing the place where Gu Beizhi had been roughly bandaged, Gu Beizhi heard Guan Zhou sigh, and then the sleeves were gently pulled down and put away, Guan Zhou tucked his feet ,left.

Gu Beizhi opened his eyes, and it turned out that Guan Zhou had already discovered that he was injured.

That's right, although he cleaned the blood on his sleeve and covered it up with a handkerchief, it was obvious that something was wrong.

He actually felt that Guan Zhou didn't ask, but he just didn't see it, probably because he was out of his mind after being beaten tonight.

Laughing at himself, Gu Beizhi was about to fall asleep again, and fell asleep quickly this time.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Gu Beizhi took the clothes with torn sleeves from the house. He originally wanted to throw them away, but he decided to put them in the store first.

"I'm off to work." Gu Beizhi said to Guan Zhou and the two children.

"Daddy, slow down on the way!" The two children said goodbye to him before finishing their meal, and started to eat again.

Guan Zhou sent him to the door without saying anything, just the same as usual, "Be careful on the road, go home early after work."

"Hey, I got it." Gu Beizhi suddenly realized that Guan Zhou often sent him to the door, and told him to be careful on the way before going back.

Unknowingly, he also felt that he was used to it. He was used to people telling him things like 'Be careful on the road', 'Go home early', 'You're back'.

If one day he can really return to modern times, back to the teacher's apartment, he will be alone, going to and from get off work, eating alone, doing nothing all night alone...

He can't stand it?

Taste the sweetness of being accompanied, and then become a lonely person again, no one will adapt.

Guan Zhou has changed a lot, his timidity no longer works on him, that's why he can receive such ordinary and warm exhortations.

When Gu Beizhi came to the store, the shopkeeper Du hadn't come down yet, Xiao Ding and Shui Sheng were already cleaning the lobby, "Here we come, Lao Gu."

"Mmm, good morning, brother Ding, Shuisheng." Gu Beizhi first went to his identification room to put things in, and then came out to adjust the placement of the items.

Shopkeeper Du also came down from upstairs, "Beizhi, a batch of goods arrived today, and there are two pieces of porcelain inside, remember to go and see."

"Understood." Gu Bei agreed.

Everything was no different from the past, if it wasn't for the faint pain in the abdomen and arms, everything yesterday seemed to be his hallucination.

Gu Beizhi thought about it, but knew that this matter was not completely closed, and it depended on Master Liu's attitude.

Just as he was thinking, a servant from Master Liu's family came, and he was still an acquaintance.

Seeing Gu Beizhi, Liu Da said, "Master Gu, my master invites you to come over to the mansion. He has received two new pieces of jade. I want Master Gu to show you."

"Okay, first go to the cabinet and pay the money, and I'll get the tools." Gu Beizhi was silent for a while, and immediately agreed.

Liu Da went to pay shopkeeper Du and left with Gu Beizhi.

Brother Xiao Ding watched them leave, and went to Shopkeeper Du, "Shopkeeper, why do you think Master Liu likes Lao Gu so much?"

"En." Shopkeeper Du wished Master Liu would find Gu Beizhi more times, and it would be even better if he could buy more things from the store.

"No, shopkeeper, don't you find it strange? Old Gu is not good at looking at jade, why does Master Liu always look for him?"

Brother Xiao Ding wondered, although Lao Gu had dismantled him last time when he went to a merchant to pass off jadeite as jasper, but Lao Gu usually only looked at porcelain, did Master Liu decide that there was only one person and not change it?

Rubbing his chin, Lao Gu borrowed his clothes yesterday to wear them and went to Liu's Mansion through the back door, but Master Liu is still looking for him today, which is a bit strange.

"What are you thinking about?" Shopkeeper Du saw him like that, and knew that this kid was thinking wildly.

Brother Xiao Ding didn't think he was thinking wildly, "Do you think Master Liu will fall in love with Lao Gu? Our old Gu's handsomeness is indeed easy to be taken advantage of..."

Shopkeeper Du knocked him on the head with a pen, "Nonsense! Go on, Beizhi has been married for several years, and the child is five years old!"

"I don't mean that, I'm worried!" Xiao Ding covered his head, "Old Gu Chang's handsome, many rich masters love handsome men like him, I'm not worried that Old Gu will be bullied and dare not say anything ?"

"Go away and do your job, thinking about it all day long, have you heard the rumors that Mr. Liu is a man?"

"No..."

"I'm still thinking about it without you!"

"Oh."

Brother Xiao Ding turned his head and went to work, but shopkeeper Du was worried about his troubles.
