Chapter 114 Transparency

Mrs. Gu's eyes were full of surprise when she saw Gu Yun: "My great grandson, I just had someone deliver a letter to my family yesterday, and you're here today?"

Gu Yun immediately came over and said softly and warmly: "Nai, I miss you. I can't wait for a moment at home."

After Gu Yun came over, he pressed close to the old lady's body and skillfully groped with his right hand into the old lady's sleeve.

Mrs. Gu slapped his hand away and said, "You are so old, but you still want to touch me for food. Even if you do, it's not your turn!"

After Mrs. Gu said this, she simply handed a handful of melon seeds hidden in her sleeve to Niu Niu.

After Niu Niu got the melon seeds, she skillfully divided them into two piles and gave half to Gu Zhao.

The two little ones were cracking melon seeds and looking at Gu Yun curiously.

"Cousin, are elder sister and younger sister here?" Niuniu asked.

Gu Yun shook his head and said, "I'm the only one here, but they asked me to bring you something."

"Brother, have you brought me anything?" Gu Zhao asked eagerly.

Gu Yun opened the big baggage directly and took out the contents.

"These are homemade pickles that I brought to my grandma and second aunt. These are the salted duck eggs made by my mother. She said Niuniu likes to eat them. This is a jar of worms. I caught them myself early in the morning. These are Da Ya and my second aunt. The sandbags that Xiaoya gave to Niuniu and a bag of wild chestnuts that were dried and kept until now. My uncle brought them over."

Niu Niu couldn't put it down, holding six small sandbags sewn with old cloth. Although they were not expensive, they were gadgets that her two cousins ​​​​liked very much.

The adults in the room were well aware of Dafang's sudden generosity.

The two little children couldn't understand.

"Why did Uncle Chen give us chestnuts?" Gu Zhao asked.

Niu Niu didn't care about the reason at all and said: "Uncle Chen is such a good man."

Gu Yun explained with a smile: "My uncle has always been very fond of my mother. There are many things that my mother never thought of, but I will think carefully about them for her."

Mrs. Gu also knew that Uncle Chen, the eldest brother from her mother's family, had always worked hard, so she said: "Your uncle loves you so much, you must remember his kindness."

Gu Yun nodded.

Mrs. Gu asked again: "Your parents have become wiser this time. They know how to ask your uncle when something happens."

Gu Yun touched the back of his head and said: "Grandma, before you left home, you told my parents to ask my uncle if you couldn't make up your mind. They always kept it in mind. After the messenger arrived home yesterday, my father My mother and my third uncle got together to discuss it for a long time before they decided to let me come to the city."

Mrs. Gu asked again: "Are you sure your third uncle agrees?"

Gu Yun said: "The third uncle was quite tempted at first, but after hearing my uncle say that everything in the city requires money, he gave it up."

Gu Laosan is different from Gu Yun. He also has two young children. If he goes to the city to work as a temporary worker in a government office, he will have to take care of his family and spend money on everything. Gu Yun is half a young man and will be crowded wherever he goes. Can live in it.

While several people were talking, Zhang Yunniang brought out a bowl of noodles from the kitchen: "After traveling for such a long time, let's eat something to cushion ourselves."

After Gu Yun took the noodles, he took a deep breath and said, "The noodles cooked by my second aunt are fragrant, but the noodles cooked by my mother are tasteless at all."

Zhang Yunniang didn't actually have much cooking skills, but she was willing to give oil and salt when cooking. Chen Chunhua lived frugally, and her own son disliked her for not having oil or salt. "You don't want to think about who your mother is working **** eating." Zhang Yunniang replied casually.

Gu Yun smiled and said, "Second Aunt, what you said is exactly the same as my mother's."

Mrs. Gu said to Zhang Yunniang: "Yunniang, Niu Niu and A Zhao are sleepy. Please take them to bed."

Zhang Yuniang knew that the old lady had something to tell Gu Yun, so she waved the two children and Liu Xiaoru out.

Mrs. Gu looked at Father Gu in the room again.

Dad Gu took the things in his hands and walked out of the house obediently.

"Did they give your parents the money they asked them to prepare?" Mrs. Gu asked, grabbing her eldest grandson who was engrossed in eating noodles.

Gu Yun stopped his scurrying movements, lowered his head and dug out five taels of silver from his worn clothes.

"Why did you take so much money? Has your mother changed her temper?" Mrs. Gu was shocked.

She thought about it before and felt that although this quota should be given to her own people, she could not allow them to take advantage of the big house in vain, so she sent a message back saying that this quota for temporary workers in the Yamen would cost two taels of silver.

Gu Lao San and Gu Lao San, as the mainstay of the family, are not suitable for going to the city. Only Gu Yun, who has just turned fifteen, is not only suitable for the situation, but also lacks a way to earn a living.

The old lady expected that the worst case scenario would be for Gu Yun to enter the city empty-handed, but she didn't expect that Dafang would finally have a brain and know how to take care of things properly.

But the next second the old lady knew that she was overthinking.

"My uncle scolded my mother and said that if she continued to cheat Sosou, he would break off the relationship," Gu Yun said.

The old lady sighed.

"My uncle calculated an account for her and said that if I want to gain a foothold in the yamen, I must give these two taels of silver, and the extra three taels of silver must also be given to my second uncle, first to thank my second uncle for helping me. Take care, secondly, if I live in my second uncle’s house, not only will I not be able to live and eat for free, I will also have to be thoughtful and diligent. "

Mrs. Gu asked softly: "Ayun, do you think what your uncle said makes sense?"

Gu Yun said: "Grandma, don't worry, I'm not my mother. My second uncle treats me well because I'm his nephew. But there are many brothers in the village. The relationship between uncles and nephews is worse than that of enemies. My second uncle doesn't owe me anything." What do I mean? He was good to me, so I should repay him well."

Gu Yun was homeless all day long when he was in the village. He was not deeply influenced by Chen Chunhua.

After the separation, he also felt the warmth and warmth of human relationships.

The Gu family was separated, and the second house received almost no property. Many people who didn't know the inside story thought that the relationship between the first house and the second house was bad.

Dafang didn't even support his parents, and everyone in the village looked at them strangely.

Originally, Chen Chunhua was interested in Gu Yun's daughter-in-law, but the woman's family suddenly ignored her.

Gu Yun realizes the importance of making good friends with his second uncle more clearly than his parents.

Seeing that her eldest grandson was transparent, Mrs. Gu was relieved and said, "Fortunately, your temperament is like your uncle's."
