The road back to the county seat is still long.

Gu Mingda rented a carriage from the county horse and carriage company. Because it was a chartered carriage, it could be sent directly to Qingshui Village without passing through the county.

Due to the remote location of Qingshui Village, carriages rarely come. As soon as they entered the village, the children at the entrance of the village started to scream when they saw the carriage.

Gu Mingda opened the car curtain and accurately saw the Gu family's dolls among the children.

In such trivial matters, Gu Mingda was also happy to be a respectable elder and shouted to the children in the third room of the first house.

The carriage stopped, and Gu Yun, Gu Jin, Da Ya and Xiao Ya climbed up with excitement on their faces.

"I'm riding a carriage. It's much more stable than an ox-cart!" Gu Jin sat in the carriage and shouted excitedly to his friends below.

Gu Mingda took out the snacks he had prepared a long time ago and gave a pack to each child in the family.

When it was given to Xiaoya, she stuffed it all into her mouth and devoured it as soon as she got it.

This action made Niu Niu stunned for a moment, and she said: "Little sister, if you eat so much in one breath, you will easily choke. Choking is very uncomfortable."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaoya suddenly began to roll her eyes, obviously eating too much in one go and choking her neck.

Zhang Yunniang hurriedly handed over the water bag and felt relieved after watching Xiaoya drink the water and swallow the food.

"You kid, why are you in such a hurry to eat? Take your time, it's all yours, and no one is trying to steal it from you." After Zhang Yunniang finished speaking, she patted Xiaoya's back to calm her down.

After a long time, Xiaoya whispered: "If I don't eat quickly, it won't be my turn to eat when I get back."

Zhang Yuniang thought of Xiaoya's mother, Liu Erni, who was not good at speaking ill of her sister-in-law, so she could only remain silent.

But Niuniu took the initiative and said: "Then you can keep it here with me and I will keep it for you. I promise not to eat it secretly!"

The child's words were innocent, and only another child believed her.

Gu Xiaoya asked happily: "Really? Are you really willing to help me keep it?"

Niuniu nodded vigorously.

Other children on the side also came over and said, "I can also keep it for you! Leave all the delicious food to me in the future!"

It should be a very touching scene, but Gu Xiaoya looked at several of them with a defensive expression.

"I don't want you to keep it! It's useless if I leave it to you. I can only trust Niuniu and Brother Yan!" Gu Xiaoya said.

Gu Daya immediately became unhappy and asked: "Forget it if you can't trust my brother, why can't you even trust me? We are the best friends!"

Gu Xiaoya said directly: "The chestnuts I picked up last time..."

Gu Daya shut up immediately.

Gu Xiaoya took Niu Niu's hand, turned to Gu Daya and said proudly: "If you steal the chestnuts I asked you to keep, it will be best for me to never be with you again. It will be best for me to be with Niuniu in the future, because she The most well-behaved, she will make a sand table for me and share delicious food with me! ”

Gu Mingda glanced at Niu Niu in surprise. He had been out of school for two or three months in a hurry to take the exam. Children are very forgetful. He thought Xiaoya and the others would simply forget about Niu Niu, a sister who had just come to the house not long ago.

But I didn't expect that people would remember it clearly and even stage a fight over it.

When Gu Daya heard what her cousin said, she took Niu Niu's other hand and said: "Niu Niu is not the best with you, Niu Niu is the best with me! You are not my favorite sister anymore, Niu Niu is the best. yes!"

The little girl's feelings come quickly and her temper is quick. Even though it's a trivial matter, it gets bigger and bigger.

"It's best to follow me!"

"No, she likes me the most!"

The two of them each held Niu Niu's hand and almost started fighting.

Zhang Yunniang saw that Niu Niu's little face was red from being pulled, and she quickly stopped her two nieces, who were neither serious nor serious: "Okay, okay, I like it! You are all Niu Niu's favorite sister!"

In front of the elders, Da Ya and Xiao Ya finally stopped arguing.

Gu Xiaoya was still unwilling to give in, so she leaned into Niu Niu's ear and whispered: "Niu Niu, you have to be my first priority."

Seeing this action, Gu Daya immediately asked: "What are you whispering?"

Gu Xiaoya didn't answer, but made a face at her.

Seeing the situation, Gu Daya was so anxious that she was about to jump up again.

Zhang Yunniang quickly grabbed the person and said, "We're almost home, we're almost home."

Old Gu's house was not far from the entrance of the village, and the carriage was parked outside the yard.

Mrs. Gu was still wondering where the carriage came from, but Gu Yun, a half-year-old boy, jumped out of the carriage and said with a smile: "Mistress, the second uncle is back. He bought a lot of things!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Gu immediately laughed so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes, and said, "Oh, my second son has become successful and came back in a carriage!"

Gu's third daughter-in-law, Liu Erni, looked at the carriage that was rarely seen in the countryside, and said sourly: "Second brother is now a scholar. He is different from us mud-legged people. He doesn't know how to put on such a big pomp. How much money will be spent on my parents in the future?”

Gu Mingda brought a carriage back this time not to show off, but simply because he didn't want the children to be too tired.

Hearing his sister-in-law's sinister words, before he could speak, Mrs. Gu had already spat: "You still have the nerve to say these things! No one can be more filial to us than you and the third child!"

Gu Mingda was shocked when he saw his mother's eyes spitting fire when she disagreed. In the past, he only knew that my mother didn't like his sister-in-law, but he had never seen her hate her so much before. Now she is gnashing her teeth and ready to rush forward and take a bite at any time. It's like there is a deep hatred.

When Liu Erni heard this, she also looked guilty, and she found an excuse to hide in the house.

Mrs. Gu stood there for a long time, and then she forced a smile again. She looked at the second family and said:

"Ten days ago, the government sent someone back to report that you got the first place in the college entrance examination. I knew you were coming back. I clean your room every day. You must be tired after sitting in the carriage for so long. Take a rest quickly."

"Okay, I will listen to you." Gu Mingda said with a smile.

He jumped off the carriage first, turned around and helped Zhang Yunniang out of the carriage. Several young boys didn't need help, they jumped off directly, and helped the second couple to carry the big and small bags into the house.

Zhang Yunniang turned around and took Niuniu down from the carriage. As soon as she landed, the little girl threw herself on Mrs. Gu like a young swallow.

"Grandma, Niuniu missed you so much outside!" Niuniu said loudly.

Niuniu really missed Grandma Gu. Every time she saw how Mrs. Qian doted on the adopted grandson, she couldn't help but think of Grandma Gu who loved her just as much.

Grandma Gu smiled sincerely, stretched out her old hands and repeatedly stroked Niuniu's little face, calling her "my sweetheart".

The two of them stayed together for a long time. Grandma Gu looked around like a thief to make sure no one saw her. Then she secretly took out a red wild fruit the size of a baby's fist and stuffed it into Niuniu's hand, urging her, "Hurry up and keep it. Grandma will only give it to you. Don't let others see it."
