Chapter 166
Gu Manxiu was slightly relieved when she thought that there were still two reliable children.

The two didn't go directly to Jiang's house to pick up a few children, but went back to Chen Xing Village first.

Seeing Gu Manxiu, who was sweating from exhaustion after cleaning up the house inside and out, Jiang Yichen reluctantly took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.

"I told you to go to Jiang's house first and let Jiang's servants come over to clean up the yard, but you have to do it yourself."

Gu Manxiu waved his hand, but there was a smile on his face.

"You don't understand, this is our home, and I have to clean it up myself."

The movements in Jiang Yichen's hands paused, and a smile rose from the corner of his lips.

"You're right, our home should be cleaned up by ourselves."

Gu Manxiu didn't understand what he meant, and ordered people to carry water, and she turned over the vegetable field in the backyard again, took out the children, herself, and the bedding in Jiang Yichen's room to dry, and then gave up.

"Okay, let's dry it for another day tomorrow. After picking up a few children, we can use it directly."

Gu Manxiu was very satisfied when she saw the small courtyard once again turned into a smoldering atmosphere after tidying up all day.

In the early morning of the second day, Jiang Yichen and Gu Manxiu drove to the capital.

Chen Xing Village is not far from the capital, and the two of them arrived at the gate of Jiang's house in half a day.

The guard at the gate saw Jiang Yichen coming down from the carriage, and immediately stepped forward to greet him with a happy face, and the other person hurried to notify the steward of the mansion.

When the steward saw Jiang Yichen, he almost burst into tears.

"Master, are you back? Why don't you send someone to send a letter to your family so that someone can pick you up."

Jiang Yichen was also the child he had watched grow up since he was a child, and this was the first time his master hadn't taken anyone so far away.

Even though Jiang Yichen was about to reach the age of weak crown, during this period of time, the old steward was still worried about his safety all the time.

Seeing that Jiang Yichen had returned safely, the old steward felt relieved.

Jiang Yichen also saw that the steward was worried, and comforted him: "Uncle Fu, I made you worry."

Just one sentence made Fu Bo's eyes blush.

Uncle Fu touched the corners of his eyes and waved his hands, "Now that the young master has grown up, this old slave can feel at ease. When I see the master and madam in the future, this old slave will have an explanation."

Gu Manxiu stood beside Jiang Yichen and did not disturb the two of them.

Since he came to Jiang's house, although Uncle Fu hadn't shown up directly, he handled many things properly and never made things difficult for them.

Even seeing that the Gao family's children were too young, he specially ordered the people in the attached middle school to take care of them carefully.

Based on this alone, Gu Manxiu is very grateful to the old steward.

Seeing now that he came out to greet Jiang Yichen when he heard Jiang Yichen came back, Gu Manxiu also saw the old steward's feelings for Jiang Yichen.

When Jiang Wen and the others heard that Gu Manxiu and the others had returned, they hurried out to greet them.

Gao Changyue saw Gu Manxiu's figure from afar, so he stretched out his arms and threw himself into Gu Manxiu's arms.

"Mother, you are back, Yue'er misses you so much..."

Gu Manxiu also hurriedly caught the little girl.

Seeing the little girl buried her head in her embrace without making a sound, and wanted to tease her a few words, she suddenly felt that the skirt of her clothes was wet.

Gu Manxiu was startled, and quickly bumped the child in her arms.

"Moon?"

The little girl replied muffledly, but she didn't raise her head.

Gu Manxiu sighed, and could only carry her into the house.

As soon as they entered the door, Gao Changyuan and Gao Changhe sat beside her. Seeing Jiang Yichen staring at them, they had no intention of moving away.

Although the two little guys had never acted like a spoiled sister to Gu Manxiu, their eyes were red.

Gao Changyuan was the first to express his dissatisfaction, "Mother, didn't you say you would be back soon? Why have you been away for so long?"

Gu Manxiu stayed in Jiangnan for a month, and she guessed that some brats might question her when she came back.

"The situation in Jiangnan is too dangerous. Children as old as you are also infected. If you don't get medical treatment in time, your life may be in danger."

Gao Changyuan originally wanted to reprimand Gu Manxiu, hoping that she would not leave home for too long next time she had something to do.Hearing this all of a sudden, the young boy immediately forgot about his little thoughts.

"Mother, what's the situation in Jiangnan? How could it be so serious?"

Gu Manxiu saw that he was worried about the country and the people at a young age, and not only rubbed his head.

"Don't worry, no matter how dangerous things are, they have been resolved."

The children were all smart, seeing that Gu Manxiu was unwilling to talk more, she didn't continue to ask.

Gu Haitang looked at Gu Manxiu worriedly, "Sister, are you alright?"

"It's okay, we took preventive medicine before going to Jiangnan, so we won't be infected."

Gu Haitang breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's fine, sister Ah Wu..."

"She's fine, and she'll be even better in the future."

Gu Manxiu thought of that girl who was obviously only a teenager, and Gu Manxiu, who had lived two lifetimes, admired the strength she showed.

Among other things, just relying on Wuhuang's strength, she will go further in the future.

"Today we are going back to the village, who of you doesn't want to go home?"

She had heard from Jiang Yichen before that because Gao Changyuan had a great talent for reading, he also asked Uncle Fu to temporarily send him to study in an academy in the capital during his stay in the Jiang family.

Gu Manxiu was also worried that she would delay her boss's schoolwork by making such a fuss.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, several children gathered in front of her.

"Mom, let's all go home."

The little girl nestled in her arms and said in a muffled voice.

This kid Gao Changhe is usually the most arrogant, but today he really didn't say a word.

Gao Yuanshan also stared at Gu Manxiu eagerly, hoping that Gu Manxiu would not leave him behind.

Gu Manxiu raised her eyebrows, the reason she asked that question just now was because of Gao Yuanshan.Why does this kid look like this?
"Yuan Shan, I heard from your elder brother Jiang that he sent you to the academy in the capital this month, why did you follow us back? But you don't like the academy?"

Gao Yuanshan shook his head slightly, "Mother, the academy is very good, but... I want to go home."

Gu Manxiu could also see his emotions, but she didn't force it.

"Okay, then let's go home today. The academy... If you don't want to go, you can continue to study with your brother Jiang. When we move to the capital in the future, it's not too late for you to go to the academy."

Anyway, Jiang Yichen's knowledge is not bad, teaching an 11-year-old child should not be a problem.

Gao Yuanshan immediately smiled.

"I'm going to pack my things."

Upon hearing this, Gao Changhe hurriedly followed.

Gu Haitang looked at Gu Manxiu with some reluctance, "My sister just came back, why don't you stay in the capital for a few more days?"

The little girl also missed Gu Manxiu very much, and originally wanted to be close to Gu Manxiu, but before she arrived, she was about to leave so soon.
