After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 136 Recognition of relatives

After the carriage rented by the Gu family left Qingshui Village, Mrs. Gu muttered softly: "It's so shameless to grab every meal."

Zhang Yunniang smiled awkwardly when she heard this. She did not mention that Mrs. Gu was also a member of the food-grabbing group in the past, but instead said: "Mom, didn't you say you wanted to live in the village for a while?"

Mrs. Gu did have this idea before she returned to the village, but after staying in the village for a long time, she felt that she was not used to it anywhere. She was also thinking about the braised vegetable shop, fearing that the family would be too busy without help.

"There are so many things going on in the shop, how can I relax?" Mrs. Gu replied casually.

She was also paid for helping in the shop. This time she used the money to buy a lot of snacks for the children at home. They all gathered around and called her "good grandma", which made her feel comfortable.

Although it's not like before, when one person was in charge of the money of a whole family, now he earns and spends his own money, so he doesn't have to plan carefully.

"The third daughter-in-law is a good one. The shoes she made for Niuniu have fine stitching and it looks like she put a lot of effort into them." Mrs. Gu added.

Zheng Cuier gave a pair of shoes to everyone in the family. The shoes for Niu Niu and Gu Xiaoya were made of the most exquisite materials and were embroidered with exquisite patterns.

When Niuniu heard this, she raised her feet on the spot and showed it to her family.

Zhang Yunniang said softly: "The third brother has finally come to the end of his hardships."

Mrs. Gu said: "I just hope that the third child will not be like those short-sighted people outside, who are mean to others if they think they are ugly."

Gu Laosan said he didn't care about the bride's beauty or ugliness, but actually he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Although Liu Erni has all kinds of problems, she is not bad in appearance, and her two children also have good looks like her.

But in the evening, candles were lit in the room, and under the dim light, Gu Laosan turned around and saw Zheng Cuier looking at him tenderly.

At this moment, the birthmarks on the woman's face seemed to be illuminated by a faint golden light.

Gu Laosan suddenly felt that her former fiancé had an eye problem. He was obviously beautiful. How could he break off the engagement just because of a birthmark?

The days are flying by, and June is here in a blink of an eye.

The Gu family packed their bags again, and this time there were a lot of things to pack.

This year is the year of the provincial examination, and Gu Mingda will arrive in Jiangzhou Prefecture before August.

The rural examination is considered a major examination. The examination center is not set up in Fucheng this year. This time, all the scholars from the four nearby Fucheng will gather in Jiangzhou Prefecture to take the examination.

"When you go, you can't stay at home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, otherwise you can keep Niu Niu as our companion." Mrs. Gu hugged Niu Niu and didn't let go.

After a long journey, Zhang Yunniang originally didn't want to take the children with her, but Gu Mingda wanted to take the children back. The first reason was that he was afraid that the old man would lose energy and the children would get lost again; the second reason was that the scenery in Jiangzhou Prefecture was different from other places. He also wants to teach the children a lot of things.

Just as the Gu family packed their bags, someone came to the door.

"Brother Gu, congratulations to Brother Gu for winning the first place!"

After not seeing him for several months, Sun Jiaxing's face was now glowing, and his whole person looked high-spirited.

When Gu Mingda saw him, he also had a look of surprise on his face. He held up his hands and said, "Brother Sun will take the second place in high school. The news has spread throughout the city. It's my turn to congratulate Brother Sun."

Sun Jiaxing smiled heartily when he heard this and said, "It's just a fluke. It's all thanks to Niuniu. If she hadn't reminded me, I don't know if I would have come back alive."

When the Gu family heard this, they were suddenly surprised. "I came to Beijing that day. At first, other fellow villagers invited me to stay at Zhaoyue Guesthouse. They just thought it was cheaper than other hotels. I was about to check in, but suddenly I remembered Niuniu's advice, so I changed to another hotel. Although I spent more money, I escaped disaster. Unfortunately, my fellow countryman was greedy for petty advantages and refused to change with me. A fire broke out in the Zhaoyue Guest House later that year, and many people were burned. "

"If many people hadn't been able to take the exam, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been so easy to get second place."

"The adults in Beijing also joked that our current generation of Jinshi might be the worst batch."

Although Sun Jiaxing said this, looking at his appearance, he was not affected by these words at all.

Gu Mingda said: "Brother Sun is too humble. Even if the hotel is on fire, dozens of candidates from only one hotel will not be able to take the exam. Why are the implications so wide?"

Sun Jiaxing, with a face full of sighs, said: "Before the incident, the owner of Zhaoyue Guesthouse bought the houses on that street and built them all to be the first guesthouse in the capital. When the fire broke out, three hundred people lived in his guesthouse. Candidates, it’s not a big deal to burn down some houses. So many people gathered together to sue the guest house for acting imprudently and made noise in Jingzhao Mansion for several days..."

The fire was indeed the fault of the guest house. The Jingzhao Mansion also effectively ordered the guest house to compensate the descendants. The compensation for the villain's future could range from a thousand taels to hundreds of taels. The original wealthy businessman in Beijing suddenly disappeared. In the meantime, the building collapsed and a lot of property was sold to settle the lawsuit.

"The fire was so intense that it took two days to put it out. My fellow villager was lucky and only burned his hand. The unlucky one was burned to the point of leaving no bone or residue." Sun Jiaxing felt very frightened when he mentioned this.

Sun Jiaxing sent many gifts to the Gu family this time, but the most precious one was a thick gold collar.

Regardless of Gu Mingda's obstruction, Sun Jiaxing held the gold collar and insisted on putting it on Niu Niu's neck.

Niu Niu felt her neck sink, and her head didn't even feel like her own. She said, "It's so heavy... I can't stand still..."

Sun Jiaxing laughed loudly and said, "What's going on here? When you get married, I'll give you a big gold-headed noodle!"

"Brother Sun, this is too expensive. It's just a casual word from a child. You don't have to give such a generous gift." Gu Mingda helped Niu Niu take off the gold collar.

But Sun Jiaxing insisted on giving it away, saying: "Although it was just a casual word from Niu Niu, it saved my life and my future. Niu Niu is my little benefactor. No matter how heavy the gift is, it is appropriate."

Niu Niu brought the gold collar to Sun Jiaxing and said, "Uncle Sun, thank you for giving me the gold collar. I want to give this to your baby as a gift."

Sun Jiaxing couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, and said, "It's a pity. I made a pair of this collar and left one at home for longevity."

"Longevity?" Niu Niu looked surprised.

Sun Jiaxing smiled and explained: "Your aunt gave birth to a son ten days ago, and his nickname is Changshou."

Gu Mingda congratulated him repeatedly.

Sun Jiaxing and his wife have been married for ten years and have no children, but now they have a child and everything is ready. When they mention children, Sun Jiaxing cannot hide the smile on his face.

"Changshou's eyes are like Niuniu's, big. Changshou's nose is also like Niuniu's, small and exquisite..."

If an uninformed person heard these words of Sun Jiaxing, they would probably think that Changshou was Niu Niu's biological brother.

At this point, Sun Jiaxing saw it and said, "Brother Gu, my wife and I both like Niu Niu very much. If possible, can she be our daughter?"
