Vegetables, bracts, wheat, millet... and meat?

The little girl stared straight at the things on the cart with bulging eyes for a long while without recovering.

"Don't be stupid, these are enough for us to eat and drink until the end of the year, quickly help my sister and move the things into the house quickly, so that the neighbors won't see anything malicious." Gu Ci said, pinching She turned around and took off the lighter things from above.

It wasn't until the smoked pheasant hung in her palm that the little girl came to her senses and carried her things into the house silently.

After not hearing the little girl's reply for a long time, Gu Ci was a little surprised. Looking back at the little girl's too quiet back, he frowned slightly.However, she doesn't have time to think too much right now, it's getting late, and there will be people coming and going in this alley later, if the neighbors see so much food in her house, it's hard to guarantee that they won't have some crooked thoughts.

While the little girl was carrying things to the house, Gu Ci hurriedly removed all the things on the back panel car, leaving only a worn-out bamboo basket and those green vegetables on it, and when the little girl came out, he also Don't need her help.

"These are heavy, you have to work hard to carry them, you just stand aside and watch, sister come." Gu Ci took a sack of corn from her hand and took it into his hands.

The little girl didn't try to be brave, she knew how much she weighed, and she was never able to do such hard work.

Gu Ci moved back and forth a few times, brought the food and game into the house, and the rest was some vegetables and firewood. Compared with these things, they were not worth much, so she was not in a hurry, and put the food on the table. Resting against the door frame, she joked to the sullen little girl, "My sister brought back so much food, we Xiao Jiaojiao don't seem very happy."

What do you mean—doesn't seem very happy?

Isn't your unhappiness not obvious?The little girl glanced at her faintly, pursed her lower lip, and then stretched out her hand towards Gu Ci.

Gu Ci: "Huh???"

"Sister, did you hide your private money?"

"..." Gu Ci was choked by the little girl's words, and it took him a while to recover, "Why does Jiaojiao think that I will hide private money? Besides, why should I hide private money?"

"Then you have to ask yourself." The little girl snorted softly, "If you don't have private money, where did you get the money to buy so many things, I only gave you a tael of silver."

The little girl knew that her elder sister was a spendthrift, so when she gave the money last night, she gave her a tael of silver and asked her to spend it by herself.

Hearing this, Gu Ci glanced at the little girl, but didn't say a word, picked up the food that was still on the cart and gave it to the little girl, "Take these back, and put the firewood at the door. Send it to Brother Chunxiao and the others, and then clean it up."

This... is this the default meaning?Even if he hid his private money behind his back, he should explain it anyway, right?

The little girl was so angry that she snatched the food from her hand and entered the house angrily, and closed the gate of the yard with a bang.

Gu Ci: "..." After hesitating for a while, she still decided to send the carriage there first.

The yard that Gu Chunxiao bought was more luxurious. The lot was called Xiyun Lane, and there were houses of several big families in the town. When Gu Ci returned the carriage to Wu Jingshu, he would also bring them some Things were also delivered.

Wu Jingshu knew that her mother-in-law's family attached great importance to the three siblings, so she refused without opening the text, "Eldest sister, if you are so polite, my sister-in-law will not be happy. I am also a straight-talking person. Your siblings The life of the three of you is very tight these days, and you can't afford good things, and we don't lack these ordinary things ourselves."

These words are indeed too straightforward, but Gu Ci also knows that she speaks like this. For people who meet for the first time, she speaks flattering words very neatly. She was also very calm, "Sister-in-law is really right, I definitely can't afford good things, but the little things I give you today are not bought with money."

Only then did Wu Jingshu take a direct look at the bamboo basket on the cart, and then said to Gu Ci: "Then I want to see what a good thing you don't spend money on." The leaf on the top cover was removed, and when he saw the things inside, his expression lit up, "Where did you get these things?"

There were nothing else in the basket, but some wild game from Chenjia Village.

"It was given by my aunt who had a good relationship with me in the village. Her relatives hunted a lot. Seeing that I went back this time, she gave me some. My sister-in-law also knows that there are only three people in my family, and there are many charming girls with you on weekdays." Let’s eat and drink, and I’ll give you some to try.”

Wu Jingshu likes these wild game very much, but it is not possible to buy them every day in the town. You have to be lucky to meet those hunters who come to sell them. I am very grateful for Gu Ci's thank you gift, but thinking of their siblings In the case of the three of them, they were ashamed to accept it for nothing. "Game is a rare commodity, and it is worth a fortune. Let's name it and I'll buy it."

"If my sister-in-law said that, she would be too alienated from me." Gu Ci's expression straightened, "My sister-in-law's family usually takes care of the three of us, so it's rare to get something to please me. After such a calculation, how dare I have the cheek to ask you for help in the future."

"You girl, you are getting more and more eloquent." Wu Jingshu was speechless, but she also liked Gu Ci's generous temper, "It's okay, I'm afraid of you, then I won't talk to you You're welcome, I'll accept the things. In a few days, Abao will be resting. Let's choose a day, and you bring your two little ones to my house for dinner. Yesterday, the young man that Brother Chunxiao helped I gave you a leg of mutton, and when the time comes, come to our house to eat mutton to warm your body, I'm afraid this winter will be more difficult."

Gu Ci lowered his head and thought for a while, "Then I won't be polite."

"Hey, you're my eldest sister, a family, so there's no need to be polite. Besides, this hot-boiled meat eats only if there are many people to make it lively. At that time, Xia Hua and his family will also be called." Wu Jingshu , but she is also a straightforward and generous person when she gets better with those close to her. Gu Ci should be straightforward, but she is even more happy, "It's almost the winter solstice, and the sky is getting darker and faster. Don't delay, hurry up." Let's go back."

At this time, the housewives were busy preparing dinner, so he didn't need to say more, Gu Ci was also about to say goodbye, he greeted Wu Jingshu and walked back.

Xiyun Lane is no different from the little alley they live in that can't even be named. The alley is clean and quiet. The cool breeze blows across the cheeks, and the smell that wafts into the tip of the nose has a cool and sweet smell, not like their alley. The smell of damp and dilapidated.

While walking, Gu Ci thought, her little girl was really aggrieved after following her. Looking up at the painted gates and carved plaques on both sides, Gu Ci sighed slightly again.

Along the way, she was thinking about these far-fetched things while walking, and thinking of the little girl's angrily closing the door when she came out, she couldn't help laughing again, really looking forward to the little girl's reaction later.

Just as she was thinking this way, a hurried "Woo" sounded in front of her, she almost subconsciously stepped aside, raised her head and nodded apologetically to the groom who was tightening the carriage ahead.

The groom driving the carriage waved his hand, and said impatiently: "I have good eyesight today, if it were someone else, you might just give up here."

The dark blue carriage in front of me looks inconspicuous, but Gu Ci has been on the battlefield at least once. This horse is a good horse, so it can be seen that the person inside is a low-key rich man. Besides, she almost lost her mind about this matter here. The groom's words sounded full of resentment for the disaster caused, but he was kindly reminding her.

Gu Ci smiled and nodded, then bowed his hands to the groom, "It's really my fault today, thank you..."

"Uncle Rong, what's the matter?" Before Gu Ci finished speaking, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by the people inside, and a familiar face appeared from inside. When Lu Ming saw Gu Ci, he was also slightly taken aback. Immediately, holding the sedan door with one hand, she leaned out her whole body, "The mountains don't turn around, you see, it's really a destiny for me to have a girl."

When Gu Ci saw him, she was also very speechless, but she was not surprised. The day she moved to this town, she was ready to see this young master Lu again, and this time she didn't hold back. Yes, and said with a fake smile: "It's really a fate."

Tsk tsk, he originally thought that Miss Gu would pull away and leave. The sun is not coming out of the west today, so it was suddenly taken care of, and he still felt a little strange.

The smile on Lu Ming's face grew stronger, and he looked at the alley behind Gu Ci, "Does Miss Gu have relatives in Xiyun Alley?"

"No." Gu Ci was not surprised that the other party knew his surname, but thought of something, and then asked, "Then Young Master Lu lives here?"

Tsk tsk, when he took the initiative to introduce himself, this girl was so cold, and now it has been more than a year, and she still remembers her last name... However, this kind of playing hard to get, how could other girls make him feel Disgusting, but looking at this incongruent Miss Gu, instead of disgusting him, he finds it interesting?

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows and glanced at Gu Ci, his chin nodded slightly, his thin lips curled up, and his tone of playfulness did not make people feel frivolous, "Yes. Since there is such a fate, do you want Miss Gu to sit at the house?"

"That's unnecessary." Gu Ci looked at the sky outside, and then glanced at him again, "I bumped into Young Master Lu's carriage today, and I'm here to apologize to you, and I hope Young Master Lu..."

"Don't, don't, don't." Lu Ming waved his hand, "It's not all due to you, I'm grateful for not scaring Miss Gu."

Gu Ci shook her head, the more modest and gentleman the other party was, the less at ease she felt, "Since both of us are fine, then I won't delay, Young Master Lu, go slowly."

As he said that, without waiting for Lu Ming to respond, Gu Ci took a step ahead.

As soon as Gu Ci walked away, the servant sitting in the carriage snorted softly: "I told the young master long ago that this woman is playing hard to get..."

Lu Ming looked at Gu Ci's back as he walked away quickly, and seemed to be talking to the boy, but also seemed to be talking to himself, "Even if she is playing hard to get, this girl is quite interesting."

Boy: "..." Sure enough, women who play hard to get are all powerful characters who can't be offended. Look at my young master, such a wise and powerful person, isn't he falling for the trap?
