The rise of the president in the harem
Chapter 28
However, the road in the mountains is like this. It looks very close, but it is not so easy to actually walk.Even if it is a dark guard with excellent lightness skills, the speed of rushing to the waterfall is not as fast as that of Gao Yue's free fall - with a loud sound of falling into the river, a series of high water splashes, Gao Yue fell into the bottom of the valley of the river.Before he had time to jump, he was rushed several meters away by the rushing water... When the hidden guards and guards arrived in a hurry, except for a few pieces of gauze hanging on the cliff, there was no one left?
rescue?Of course there is no play.
The hidden guards arrived half a quarter earlier than the bodyguards, and they had already chased downstream along the current.In fact, with the level of lightness skills of the dark guard, it is not impossible to catch up to Gao Yue who was washed away by the water. The problem is that Gao Yue really needs someone to save him.The current situation is that if Gao Yue wants to run by himself, he will naturally find a way to avoid any "chasers" attracted by that call for help—Gao Yue relied on his professional diver's certificate before wearing the book, and he was born in In the turbulent river, with the small body of the most delicate brother in Dazhou Quan's harem, he played a high-end technique of diving at a high speed.When others fall into the water, they try their best to float their heads on the surface of the water to ensure unimpeded breathing. When he falls into the water, he tries not to expose his head to the surface of the water, and only takes a small breath with his mouth and nose against the water surface when he needs to take a breath.
In this way, Gao Yue was ups and downs in the water the whole time, like a fish at ease, but he was not noticed by the hidden guards who jumped along the eaves of the mountain wall.There is an element of luck in it, and the main reason is that Gao Yue's water quality is really good.
Gao Yue soaked in the water for a whole night, until the east gradually turned white, and he spotted a forest and climbed ashore.After he got ashore, he didn't dare to stay, he even ran and bumped into the woods, ran to the depths in one breath, finally climbed an old tree, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Escape! ! ! !
At this moment, Gao Yue was leaning on the thick trunk of the ancient tree, gasping for breath, her hair was soaked and sticking to her face, and her clothes were scratched by the branches when she fell. .But he looked at the blue sky above his head through the dense branches, his eyes were amazingly bright, and the undisguised vitality made him look like a green tooth that finally broke through the hard rock and broke through the ground. With a very powerful vigorous vitality.
Very good!
Gao Yue shouted loudly in her heart - free! ! !Yeah yeah yeah!
He clenched his fists and pulled down repeatedly on his chest, with an excited and fierce expression on his face!At this moment, he doesn't look like a weak and beautiful brother. Anyone can see that this is a little villain who escaped from the sky and got out of the net by luck.
It has to be said that amidst such great excitement, Gao Yue still didn't make a sound. His rationality and self-control ability alone are absolutely incomparable.In fact, Gao Yue was already very tired by this time, and he wanted to sleep very much, but he also knew clearly that this dense forest was not a good place to hide, he couldn't sleep yet, and had to move to a safer place as soon as possible.So he only rested for a moment, then took off the burden on his body.
Inside the baggage was a change of clothes, several bank notes, and a small amount of gold leaf and broken silver.He changed into that set of clothes, and he tore into several wet clothes and wrapped them on his bare feet. He didn't bring shoes when he went out, so he could only make do with it.The unused part of the clothes is going to be buried in a place. He feels that at this moment he must be more careful in dealing with all possible clues that may lead to tracking. A risk found by minions sent by the Alaskan Dog.
Packing the banknotes and gold leaves next to her body, putting the broken silver into her sleeve pockets, and repacking the other things with a bundle, Gao Yue carefully climbed down from the tree, picked up a branch and dug a hole not far from the big tree, and put the Throwing the burden in and burying it, and returning the fallen leaves around it, everything looked flawless, so Gao Yue continued to walk forward with satisfaction.
Gao Yue paid attention to the terrain while walking, and walked as low as possible. After walking like this for about an hour, he saw a flat forest path.Roads are made by people, and the existence of roads naturally means that there are people.Gao Yue turned on this small road and walked forward for about half an hour. Sure enough, he saw a small village.
There are probably dozens of households in this village. At the entrance of the village, there is an old lady who is holding a bamboo basket and putting radishes into a large water tank. It seems that she is pickling pickles.Gao Yue took a few steps, and wanted to go up to say hello, when she heard a shout from the small yard behind the granny, "You! What are you doing?"
Gao Yue was stunned for a moment, then followed the prestige, and saw a black-faced man push open the bamboo door of the small courtyard and come out from inside.The man was guarded, looked at Gao Yue, frowned, and said, "I asked you something, why didn't you say it?"
"My surname is Chen Xindui. I am traveling in the name of my parents. I just passed by here and wanted to ask for a glass of water. There is no malice." Gao Yue smiled sincerely and spoke sincerely. The man looked at him again, as if relieved A little wary, but still asked: "Who are your parents?"
"Jiangnan Gao's family." Gao Yue has only been here for a few days and hasn't had a chance to find out who the parents are, but Jiangnan Gao's family can never make mistakes.Even if not all the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty have been to Jiangnan, they have always heard of the name of Jiangnan Gao Family.Moreover, generations of scholarly families were revered by many people in ancient times.
Sure enough, when the man heard that he was from the Jiangnan Gao family, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and even spoke in a much calmer tone, but he still had some doubts, and said, "Since you are from the Gao family, why is your surname Chen?"
Gao Yue said: "My grandfather is the head of the Gao family."
The man sized him up a few more times, and saw that he looked calm and did not seem to be lying, so he was completely relieved, and said, "So it's the son of the Gao family. I'm sorry. Master, do you want to drink water? Then follow me."
The grandma had been listening to the two talking just now, and then she opened her mouth and said to Gao Yue: "Mr. Chen, don't blame Da Lang, he can't help it. A lot of foreigners have come to the county recently. It is said that they are all kind-hearted , Has harmed many families. We are also scared, alas, the world is still in chaos now!" After the grandma finished speaking, she continued to put radishes in the tank.
Gao Yue followed Da Lang into the courtyard and asked, "Brother Da Lang, do you know where those foreigners come from?"
Da Lang said: "I heard that it came from the sea, and it was said that it was a fairy island that could bless the son. It turned out that a few big families in the county invited them there, and within two days, the whole family died. I don't know. What kind of method was used, anyway, it spreads very scary."
"Blessing the son?" Gao Yue was a little surprised when he said this.
Dalang took out a bucket of water from the water tank, poured it into the stove, and said, "That's right. In the beginning, the group opened an altar in the county town to teach the Fa, and scattered a lot of copper coins during the Summer Solstice Shennong Sacrifice. Attracting everyone's attention, many people rushed to help them spread the word when they got money, saying that the immortals from Xianren Island came to our county to bless and give birth to their children. "
"Do those families have no descendants?" Gao Yue asked.
While filling the stove with firewood, Da Lang said, "There is a queen."
"Then why are you still tempted?" Gao Yue was puzzled.
"It's because they believe that immortals send off their sons, and their aptitude must be extraordinary. Sigh, speaking of it, don't they hope that some of their heirs will be named on the gold list, honoring their ancestors? We peasants don't understand what those rich people think every day." Da Lang boiled water. , Seeing Gao Yue standing beside him, with no shoes on but wrapped in cloth, he asked curiously, "Why doesn't Mr. Chen wear shoes?"
Gao Yue said: "I walked a lot, and my shoes were worn out, so I had to wrap them in old clothes to make do with them." He didn't want Da Lang to be suspicious, and said: "Since traveling, it is inevitable to suffer some hardships. nothing."
"Mr. Chen, you are much better than those sour scholars in the city I have seen. You don't know, there is a cousin who studies in my relative's house..." Da Lang complained about how his cousin was so sour, until the water boiled , not enough.
Gao Yue smiled and listened to him, answering from time to time, until Da Lang handed him a bowl of jasmine tea, did Gao Yue realize that Da Lang boiled water to make him this cup of hot tea? !
The ancient peasant man is really simple!
When Gao Yue took the tea, she thought with emotion.
He thanked him, took a sip of the tea, the fragrance warmed from his lips to his stomach, and it was only then that he realized that he really hadn't eaten for a long time.Hungry, tired, and sleepy, all the tension and stimulation since the run were swept up by this temperature surge, Gao Yue only felt that his eyes were dark - he heard Dalang exclaimed, "Mr. Chen, what's wrong with you?" ? ! '
Gao Yue staggered and nearly fell down, but fortunately Da Lang held him up in time, and he was barely awake at the moment, fearing that he would drop the bowl, he hurriedly put the bowl back into Da Lang's hand, saying: "I'm a little tired , Well, brother Dalang, I might have to sleep for a while..."
"Hey, Mr. Chen!"
Da Lang was a little overwhelmed, mainly because Gao Yue said that he was sleeping, and he fell asleep immediately.He was asleep, but Da Lang was still supporting him. In the end, he had no choice but to mutter, "This parent is too cruel, it seems that he is exhausted like this"—and helped Gao Yue into the room with his arms crossed inside.
When Gao Yue woke up, it was already evening.
He was lying on an earthen kang with a bamboo mat. When he sat up, he looked towards the door and saw his grandmother sitting on a bamboo stool outside the door with her back facing the room, sewing with her head bowed.Gao Yue felt that she was really bothering this family too much today, so she ground a small piece of silver from her sleeve pocket and quietly put it on the mat.
He just went down to the ground, Grandma seemed to have heard the voice in the room, turned around and looked over, and smiled when she saw him awake: "Mr. Two, they have gone into the mountains, and they will come back later today, but they can also bring back some game, and I will make a good meal for you then!"
"Uh, that's so embarrassing." Gao Yue said polite words, but her stomach grumbled embarrassingly.
Grandma smiled and said: "I think you are not very old. You must have suffered a lot when you go out alone? Well, my Erlang is about the same age as you, and he went out alone a few years ago. I don't know how he is doing now. ? You don’t want to be polite to us, eat something quickly.”
Gao Yue scooped up a bowl of porridge from the pot on the porch. He heard the meaning of what Grandma said. He probably saw that he thought of his child who was away from home. He treated himself well, and hoped that someone would treat her child well. Mother's people are like this.
Gao Yue drank two bowls of porridge before remembering to ask, "Grandma, have you eaten?"
Grandma laughed again, and said, "I ate some, but Dalang can eat some more when he comes back."
Gao Yue also laughed.
At this time, the voices of several young men talking and laughing could be heard from a distance outside the courtyard. It seemed that Da Lang had returned.Granny heard the voice and quickened the movements of her hands, and Gao Yue saw her threading a needle and thread, her movements were very skilled, and she looked like someone who was used to the work.When Dalang and the others walked to the door, the work in Granny's hand was just finished, she smiled and handed a pair of black-faced and white-soled cloth shoes to Gao Yue, and said, "Mr. It's good, but it's not bad. If you feel uncomfortable in your clothes, I can help you change them."
"This, this is not suitable." Gao Yue quickly refused. A pair of cloth shoes is indeed not worth much, but it depends on who you are. For a farmer like Grandma's family, selling these shoes at the market is also an income.
"It's okay, you should wear it for my family's Erlang," the grandma laughed, but Gao Yue saw some tears in her eyes. It seems that this old lady really misses her son.
Gao Yue thought for a while and said, "Why don't I give you money—"
"Stop talking, go into the room and change!" Grandma suddenly stood up and pushed him into the room.
At this time, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Dalang and two other young people walked in together.One of the small young men entered the yard with a smile and said: "Grandma, do you think who is here today?"
"Hmph, who am I supposed to be? It turns out it's you, a leather bastard!" Gao Yue clicked her tongue a little while seeing Granny scolding with a cold face.He couldn't help thinking, what on earth did that fat man do to make Grandma hate him so much?
Gao Yue's doubts were quickly resolved by the conversation that followed.I heard the fat young man who was scolded by the grandma say: "Grandmother, why don't you scold me for being a fur guy every time you see me? I don't really have to be a prank for others. Your second child made a fuss about leaving, so it really has nothing to do with me." !"
"I don't care if he has anything to do with you! I knew it wasn't you who dragged him to the county town all day long. How could he have such a heart? Come to the house less in the future, so don't make trouble!" Grandma snorted, turned and entered the room, Also shut the door with a bang.
Three people in the yard: ...
"Your mother doesn't want to see me, I'm leaving. I leave the things for you. Let's drink the wine next time!" The fat young man left angrily.
Da Lang and the small young man chased after him to persuade him, but they didn't stop the fat man.When they came back, both of them were a little frustrated.
In the room, while the three of them were arguing, grandma told Gao Yue quietly: "That fat man is called Liu San, he is not a good guy. If you meet him, you must avoid him. Don't touch him!"
"Oh, uh, good, good." Gao Yue nodded, and only then did she understand why Grandma pushed him into the room just now, what kind of shoe test?It was obvious that the fat man was here, and he was afraid that he would act maliciously when he saw him?This is why you deliberately pushed yourself into the house to hide?
That should be it.
This grandma...Gao Yue didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment, in short, she was a little warmed up.
At this time, Grandma said again: "Qi Er is better than Liu Saner, he has helped my family a lot. But you—" She looked at Gao Yue's face and sighed, "Oh, you look so good , and guard against him." Grandma spoke earnestly, and patted Gao Yue's arm after speaking.
Gao Yue: ...
Looking too good should be a compliment to me, but when combined with Fangren, it seems to say 'that Qier is a pervert, and you look too attractive', which made Gao Yue feel a little embarrassed for a moment.However, Gao Yue really thanked Grandma for her kind reminder. He nodded and said to Grandma: "I remember everything, don't worry."
Grandma laughed again, looked at Gao Yue, with tears in her eyes, finally turned her head, wiped her eyes, and said, 'You are a good boy'.
At this moment, the door of the house was pushed open, and Da Lang stepped in with an uneasy face. He just called out 'Mother—' when he saw Gao Yue beside Grandma, he was stunned for a moment, and changed his words: "Mr. Chen? You Wake up? Ah, did we just wake you up?"
"It's okay, I was awake too, I really caused you a lot of trouble today!"
"Who? Is there someone in your family?" It was the small man named Qi Er who spoke.He walked into the room carelessly while talking, and was stunned when he saw Gao Yue.It wasn't until Da Lang pushed him with some embarrassment that he came back to his senses and hurriedly said with a smile: "This, this is?"
"This is Mr. Chen. The Gao family in the south of the Yangtze River is his maternal ancestor's family."
"Just call me Xindui." Gao Yue felt vigilant at this moment, thinking that 'Gao' or 'Jiangnan Gao Family' should not leave a deep impression on people like Qi Er who are quick-witted.
"The heart is right?" Qier muttered these two words, and said with a smile: "A good name. If the heart is right, things can be done well, and the road can be followed in the right direction. When I hear this name, I feel that the young master is a learned person."
The corner of Gao Yue's mouth twitched, but he immediately calmed down and said, "It's easy to say, easy to say."
Grandma didn't like to hear it anymore, she gave Qier a blank look, and said, "You're the one with a glib tongue. It's alright, don't play tricks here, come and help!" She turned her head and picked up a wooden basin and stuffed it for Qier, and tried again Pat him on the back and push him out.Qi Er was pushed, but still turned to stare at Gao Yue, with a bright smile on his face, but his eyes were very uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Da Lang also seemed to feel embarrassed, waited for them to go out, and said softly to Gao Yue: "Tomorrow I will send you into the county town, but the county town has not been peaceful recently, you are not safe as a scholar, it is best to have some people to protect you. "
Gao Yue didn't rush to answer this question, but asked, "What's the matter with your brother?"
"My mother even told you this?" Da Lang looked a little helpless, and said, "Oh, she likes to say this to everyone. Actually, it's nothing. I learned crafts in the county a few years ago. I just went wild, insisting on making a fuss about going out to sea, saying that I could see the world, and ran away. My mother has been troubled since then, thinking that her son has run away, and now she tells everyone."
"Oh, do you know which sea he went to?" Gao Yue asked.
Da Lang said: "Which other sea can he go to? This is the closest to Gucheng. It should be the East China Sea."
Gao Yue nodded and said nothing.
In the courtyard, Qi Er was unwilling to be lonely, and shouted: "Da Lang, don't be lazy, come and help, come and help!"
Da Lang rushed outside to answer, "Oh, come here!"
Seeing that he went out, Gao Yue was the only one left in the room. It was hard for everyone to be busy, so he was the only one to eat ready-made food, so he followed him out.
As soon as he saw him coming out, Qier's eyes lit up immediately, and he gave Gao Yue a particularly bright smile.Gao Yue nodded, only then did he see clearly that several people were dealing with two newly killed pheasants and a hare.
It seems that this should be an extra meal tonight.
How many meals of meat can an ordinary farmer eat in a year?Gao Yue only knows that in historical records, the root cause of many peasant uprisings in ancient times was that there was no food to eat.Can't even eat food, still want to eat meat?
Therefore, watching these people happily handle wild game now, he can understand their excitement and expectation for meat.
Grandma's cooking skills are very good, and the meat she makes is smooth and delicious. Gao Yue ate two large bowls of stewed dried vegetables with rabbit and chicken in one go, and then put down the bowls and chopsticks with unsatisfied satisfaction.Dalang and Qier drank while eating meat. Grandma put down her chopsticks after eating a bowl, and said she was going to sleep first when she was tired.
Before she left, she took Gao Yue away, telling him not to worry about Da Lang and the others, but to go to bed early and get up early.
Gao Yue obediently followed her grandmother into the house.The kang is very big, so Grandma sleeps on one end, Gao Yue sleeps on the other, and there is no problem sleeping two more people in the vacant space in the middle.Gao Yue didn't sleep well, but paid attention to the movement outside.Until late at night, when Dalang sent Qier away and returned to the house, Gao Yue felt that he walked up to her head, stretched out her hand and pushed herself——
"Master Chen, wake up!"
Gao Yue sat up when he heard Da Lang calling him that.
Da Lang said: "My brother... well, anyway, we have to get up early tomorrow. Let me tell you first, you have a plan in mind."
Hearing what he said, Gao Yue was not surprised. After all, Qi Er had been staring at him all night, and it would be amiss if he couldn't detect anything.At this time, hearing what Da Lang said, he felt more at ease, at least Da Lang didn't intend to harm him.
"Well," Gao Yue responded, "then you should call me earlier."
Dalang responded, took off his shoes and climbed onto the kang. After lying down, he seemed to be talking to himself or explaining to Gao Yue, "In autumn, we will build two additional rooms, so that there will be a place to sleep when guests come to the house." No more. I don’t have to squeeze in with my mother anymore.”
Gao Yue closed her eyes and raised the corners of her lips slightly.The honest peasant man pursues this kind of small life that gets better little by little.They helped themselves, and Gao Yue sincerely hoped that their life would get better and better.
True love is the rarest thing in the world——Gao Yue gradually fell asleep as she thought about this sentence.
Sure enough, Da Lang woke up Gao Yue before dawn.
Get up early in summer with heavy dew and fog.When Gao Yue came to the yard, he saw the gate was open, and a prepared ox cart was parked quietly at the gate, it seemed that this was Da Lang's ready tool for entering the city.
Bullock carts are also fine, better than ground crutches.
Gao Yue sat on the shaft of the car, and Grandma chased him out and stuffed him with a small bundle, saying: "There are a few pancakes inside, you take them to eat on the road. You have to take care of yourself when you are out alone, don't be hungry anymore."
Gao Yue quickly thanked him, and at this moment he felt that he really had to express something.So, he jumped out of the car again, made a deep bow to Grandma, took out two gold leaves from his close-fitting collar and handed them to Grandma, saying: "Grandma, I have nothing better to thank you Alright, you take the money, if I become promising in the future, I will come to see you again."
At that moment, Grandma's eyes were flushed, she hurriedly raised her sleeve to wipe it, and held Gao Yue's hand again.
rescue?Of course there is no play.
The hidden guards arrived half a quarter earlier than the bodyguards, and they had already chased downstream along the current.In fact, with the level of lightness skills of the dark guard, it is not impossible to catch up to Gao Yue who was washed away by the water. The problem is that Gao Yue really needs someone to save him.The current situation is that if Gao Yue wants to run by himself, he will naturally find a way to avoid any "chasers" attracted by that call for help—Gao Yue relied on his professional diver's certificate before wearing the book, and he was born in In the turbulent river, with the small body of the most delicate brother in Dazhou Quan's harem, he played a high-end technique of diving at a high speed.When others fall into the water, they try their best to float their heads on the surface of the water to ensure unimpeded breathing.

He was lying on an earthen kang with a bamboo mat. When he sat up, he looked towards the door and saw his grandmother sitting on a bamboo stool outside the door with her back facing the room, sewing with her head bowed.Gao Yue felt that she was really bothering this family too much today, so she ground a small piece of silver from her sleeve pocket and quietly put it on the mat.
He just went down to the ground, Grandma seemed to have heard the voice in the room, turned around and looked over, and smiled when she saw him awake: "Mr. Two, they have gone into the mountains, and they will come back later today, but they can also bring back some game, and I will make a good meal for you then!"
"Uh, that's so embarrassing." Gao Yue said polite words, but her stomach grumbled embarrassingly.
Grandma smiled and said: "I think you are not very old. You must have suffered a lot when you go out alone? Well, my Erlang is about the same age as you, and he went out alone a few years ago. I don't know how he is doing now. ? You don’t want to be polite to us, eat something quickly.”
Gao Yue scooped up a bowl of porridge from the pot on the porch. He heard the meaning of what Grandma said. He probably saw that he thought of his child who was away from home. He treated himself well, and hoped that someone would treat her child well. Mother's people are like this.
Gao Yue drank two bowls of porridge before remembering to ask, "Grandma, have you eaten?"
Grandma laughed again, and said, "I ate some, but Dalang can eat some more when he comes back."
Gao Yue also laughed.
At this time, the voices of several young men talking and laughing could be heard from a distance outside the courtyard. It seemed that Da Lang had returned.Granny heard the voice and quickened the movements of her hands, and Gao Yue saw her threading a needle and thread, her movements were very skilled, and she looked like someone who was used to the work.When Dalang and the others walked to the door, the work in Granny's hand was just finished, she smiled and handed a pair of black-faced and white-soled cloth shoes to Gao Yue, and said, "Mr. It's good, but it's not bad. If you feel uncomfortable in your clothes, I can help you change them."
"This, this is not suitable." Gao Yue quickly refused. A pair of cloth shoes is indeed not worth much, but it depends on who you are. For a farmer like Grandma's family, selling these shoes at the market is also an income.
"It's okay, you should wear it for my family's Erlang," the grandma laughed, but Gao Yue saw some tears in her eyes. It seems that this old lady really misses her son.
Gao Yue thought for a while and said, "Why don't I give you money—"
"Stop talking, go into the room and change!" Grandma suddenly stood up and pushed him into the room.
At this time, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Dalang and two other young people walked in together.One of the small young men entered the yard with a smile and said: "Grandma, do you think who is here today?"
"Hmph, who am I supposed to be? It turns out it's you, a leather bastard!" Gao Yue clicked her tongue a little while seeing Granny scolding with a cold face.He couldn't help thinking, what on earth did that fat man do to make Grandma hate him so much?
Gao Yue's doubts were quickly resolved by the conversation that followed.I heard the fat young man who was scolded by the grandma say: "Grandmother, why don't you scold me for being a fur guy every time you see me? I don't really have to be a prank for others. Your second child made a fuss about leaving, so it really has nothing to do with me." !"
"I don't care if he has anything to do with you! I knew it wasn't you who dragged him to the county town all day long. How could he have such a heart? Come to the house less in the future, so don't make trouble!" Grandma snorted, turned and entered the room, Also shut the door with a bang.
Three people in the yard: ...
"Your mother doesn't want to see me, I'm leaving. I leave the things for you. Let's drink the wine next time!" The fat young man left angrily.
Da Lang and the small young man chased after him to persuade him, but they didn't stop the fat man.When they came back, both of them were a little frustrated.
In the room, while the three of them were arguing, grandma told Gao Yue quietly: "That fat man is called Liu San, he is not a good guy. If you meet him, you must avoid him. Don't touch him!"
"Oh, uh, good, good." Gao Yue nodded, and only then did she understand why Grandma pushed him into the room just now, what kind of shoe test?It was obvious that the fat man was here, and he was afraid that he would act maliciously when he saw him?This is why you deliberately pushed yourself into the house to hide?
That should be it.
This grandma...Gao Yue didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment, in short, she was a little warmed up.
At this time, Grandma said again: "Qi Er is better than Liu Saner, he has helped my family a lot. But you—" She looked at Gao Yue's face and sighed, "Oh, you look so good , and guard against him." Grandma spoke earnestly, and patted Gao Yue's arm after speaking.
Gao Yue: ...
Looking too good should be a compliment to me, but when combined with Fangren, it seems to say 'that Qier is a pervert, and you look too attractive', which made Gao Yue feel a little embarrassed for a moment.However, Gao Yue really thanked Grandma for her kind reminder. He nodded and said to Grandma: "I remember everything, don't worry."
Grandma laughed again, looked at Gao Yue, with tears in her eyes, finally turned her head, wiped her eyes, and said, 'You are a good boy'.
At this moment, the door of the house was pushed open, and Da Lang stepped in with an uneasy face. He just called out 'Mother—' when he saw Gao Yue beside Grandma, he was stunned for a moment, and changed his words: "Mr. Chen? You Wake up? Ah, did we just wake you up?"
"It's okay, I was awake too, I really caused you a lot of trouble today!"
"Who? Is there someone in your family?" It was the small man named Qi Er who spoke.He walked into the room carelessly while talking, and was stunned when he saw Gao Yue.It wasn't until Da Lang pushed him with some embarrassment that he came back to his senses and hurriedly said with a smile: "This, this is?"
"This is Mr. Chen. The Gao family in the south of the Yangtze River is his maternal ancestor's family."
"Just call me Xindui." Gao Yue felt vigilant at this moment, thinking that 'Gao' or 'Jiangnan Gao Family' should not leave a deep impression on people like Qi Er who are quick-witted.
"The heart is right?" Qier muttered these two words, and said with a smile: "A good name. If the heart is right, things can be done well, and the road can be followed in the right direction. When I hear this name, I feel that the young master is a learned person."
The corner of Gao Yue's mouth twitched, but he immediately calmed down and said, "It's easy to say, easy to say."
Grandma didn't like to hear it anymore, she gave Qier a blank look, and said, "You're the one with a glib tongue. It's alright, don't play tricks here, come and help!" She turned her head and picked up a wooden basin and stuffed it for Qier, and tried again Pat him on the back and push him out.Qi Er was pushed, but still turned to stare at Gao Yue, with a bright smile on his face, but his eyes were very uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Da Lang also seemed to feel embarrassed, waited for them to go out, and said softly to Gao Yue: "Tomorrow I will send you into the county town, but the county town has not been peaceful recently, you are not safe as a scholar, it is best to have some people to protect you. "
Gao Yue didn't rush to answer this question, but asked, "What's the matter with your brother?"
"My mother even told you this?" Da Lang looked a little helpless, and said, "Oh, she likes to say this to everyone. Actually, it's nothing. I learned crafts in the county a few years ago. I just went wild, insisting on making a fuss about going out to sea, saying that I could see the world, and ran away. My mother has been troubled since then, thinking that her son has run away, and now she tells everyone."
"Oh, do you know which sea he went to?" Gao Yue asked.
Da Lang said: "Which other sea can he go to? This is the closest to Gucheng. It should be the East China Sea."
Gao Yue nodded and said nothing.
In the courtyard, Qi Er was unwilling to be lonely, and shouted: "Da Lang, don't be lazy, come and help, come and help!"
Da Lang rushed outside to answer, "Oh, come here!"
Seeing that he went out, Gao Yue was the only one left in the room. It was hard for everyone to be busy, so he was the only one to eat ready-made food, so he followed him out.
As soon as he saw him coming out, Qier's eyes lit up immediately, and he gave Gao Yue a particularly bright smile.Gao Yue nodded, only then did he see clearly that several people were dealing with two newly killed pheasants and a hare.
It seems that this should be an extra meal tonight.
How many meals of meat can an ordinary farmer eat in a year?Gao Yue only knows that in historical records, the root cause of many peasant uprisings in ancient times was that there was no food to eat.Can't even eat food, still want to eat meat?
Therefore, watching these people happily handle wild game now, he can understand their excitement and expectation for meat.
Grandma's cooking skills are very good, and the meat she makes is smooth and delicious. Gao Yue ate two large bowls of stewed dried vegetables with rabbit and chicken in one go, and then put down the bowls and chopsticks with unsatisfied satisfaction.Dalang and Qier drank while eating meat. Grandma put down her chopsticks after eating a bowl, and said she was going to sleep first when she was tired.
Before she left, she took Gao Yue away, telling him not to worry about Da Lang and the others, but to go to bed early and get up early.
Gao Yue obediently followed her grandmother into the house.The kang is very big, so Grandma sleeps on one end, Gao Yue sleeps on the other, and there is no problem sleeping two more people in the vacant space in the middle.Gao Yue didn't sleep well, but paid attention to the movement outside.Until late at night, when Dalang sent Qier away and returned to the house, Gao Yue felt that he walked up to her head, stretched out her hand and pushed herself——
"Master Chen, wake up!"
Gao Yue sat up when he heard Da Lang calling him that.
Da Lang said: "My brother... well, anyway, we have to get up early tomorrow. Let me tell you first, you have a plan in mind."
Hearing what he said, Gao Yue was not surprised. After all, Qi Er had been staring at him all night, and it would be amiss if he couldn't detect anything.At this time, hearing what Da Lang said, he felt more at ease, at least Da Lang didn't intend to harm him.
"Well," Gao Yue responded, "then you should call me earlier."
Dalang responded, took off his shoes and climbed onto the kang. After lying down, he seemed to be talking to himself or explaining to Gao Yue, "In autumn, we will build two additional rooms, so that there will be a place to sleep when guests come to the house." No more. I don’t have to squeeze in with my mother anymore.”
Gao Yue closed her eyes and raised the corners of her lips slightly.The honest peasant man pursues this kind of small life that gets better little by little.They helped themselves, and Gao Yue sincerely hoped that their life would get better and better.
True love is the rarest thing in the world——Gao Yue gradually fell asleep as she thought about this sentence.
Sure enough, Da Lang woke up Gao Yue before dawn.
Get up early in summer with heavy dew and fog.When Gao Yue came to the yard, he saw the gate was open, and a prepared ox cart was parked quietly at the gate, it seemed that this was Da Lang's ready tool for entering the city.
Bullock carts are also fine, better than ground crutches.
Gao Yue sat on the shaft of the car, and Grandma chased him out and stuffed him with a small bundle, saying: "There are a few pancakes inside, you take them to eat on the road. You have to take care of yourself when you are out alone, don't be hungry anymore."
Gao Yue quickly thanked him, and at this moment he felt that he really had to express something.So, he jumped out of the car again, made a deep bow to Grandma, took out two gold leaves from his close-fitting collar and handed them to Grandma, saying: "Grandma, I have nothing better to thank you Alright, you take the money, if I become promising in the future, I will come to see you again."
At that moment, Grandma's eyes were flushed, she hurriedly raised her sleeve to wipe it, and held Gao Yue's hand again.
