Chapter 167 Old Acquaintances

This is easy to say.

Gu Qinhan immediately stood up and hugged Gu Xingnian.

It was the first time for the little girl to experience such a high angle of view. It was strange that her eyes were bent into crescents.

Seeing this, Su Mo hurriedly beckoned and asked Gu Qinhan to let Gu Xingnian come down.

"You are still injured, put the child down quickly."

Although Gu Xingnian is young, she also knows the reason for being injured and needs to rest. Besides, she is also a sensible person. When she hears Su Mo's words, she will twitch her hands, her small mouth is like honey, and her voice is soft and sweet. .

"Uncle...Uncle, let me down~"

Gu Qinhan has never been talkative, even if he loses his memory, his temperament will not change.

It's just because of the effect of the potion that when facing Su Mo's face, he always feels a little joy and attachment, which makes him unable to bear to treat him indifferently.

This will also be the case with Gu Xingnian who is very similar to Su Mo.

He carefully put Gu Xingnian down, trying to soften his facial expression, but it was a little weird because of the unfamiliarity.

"Then...then I'll hug you when uncle gets better..."

"Uh-huh."

Gu Xingnian nodded obediently, and climbed onto the chair by herself, thinking that the second elder brother really didn't lie to her, and that his uncle was much better than Qing Zhou's uncles.

Gu Jinnian also came out at this moment, because of Su Mo's explanation, his expression was not as guarded as it was at the beginning, but it was not much better. After calling uncle bluntly, he looked at Gu Xingnian.

"Come down, you haven't cleaned your face yet."

Gu Xingnian loves beauty, upon hearing this, the smile on her little face froze immediately, she climbed down again, covered her face and ran out.

The first time I met my uncle, I didn't clean my mouth and face, so shameful! ! !
Gu Xingnian was only four years old after all, Su Mo was naturally worried about letting her go to the bathroom alone, she shook her head helplessly, and the three people in the same room greeted each other and followed.

But as soon as Su Mo left, the atmosphere in the room became awkward.

Gu Qinhan didn't like these two little nephews, and sat on the chair with a cold face, which was very different from the way he looked at Su Mo and Gu Xingnian.

Seeing his uncle's expressionless face, Gu Ping'an felt guilty, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Not to mention Gu Jinnian, if Su Mo hadn't told him to have a good relationship with Gu Qinhan, he wouldn't have stayed in the same room with Gu Qinhan.

It was not hot in the beginning of spring, and the white mist rising from the porridge and egg pancakes disappeared with the wind. When Su Mo brought Gu Xingnian in after washing, he saw the three people in the room ignoring each other.

With a slightly raised eyebrow, she put Gu Xingnian on the table next to Gu Qinhan, and then urged them to have breakfast.

After seeing that everything was finished, Su Mo put down the bowl and told Gu Qinhan about his plans.

"You are injured, you should rest at home during this period, and don't go out.

Besides, I don't have any of your clothes here. I'll go to the county to buy some clothes tomorrow, and I'll work hard for you to help take care of the next three children. "

Gu Qinhan agreed without thinking.

"it is good."

As soon as Gu Xingnian heard that he was going to the county, the little glutton in his stomach exploded instantly. He swallowed, and stared at Su Mo with shining eyes, pitifully.

"Mom, I want to eat candied haws..."

Su Mo would not refuse this request. Besides, she raised her hand and rubbed the top of the little girl's head, and said dotingly: "Okay, mother will bring it for you tomorrow."

"Thank you mother, mother is so kind~"

Gu Xingnian's eyes were crooked, and the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears.

Of the three children, Su Mo naturally wouldn't favor one over the other, turned to look at Gu Ping'an and Gu Jinnian, and asked if there was anything they wanted.

Gu Ping'an was also a little greedy, so he ordered candied haws.

Gu Jinnian shook his head, he didn't pay much attention to food and drink, he only wanted to study, get out of the exam as soon as possible, and get fame.

And after the establishment of the village school in the village, he can read a lot more books, and he hasn't fully learned the existing ones, so naturally there is no need to buy new ones.

Furthermore, another tooth has become slightly loose recently...

Thinking about it, Gu Jinnian subconsciously licked that loose tooth.

Su Mo knew what Gu Jinnian was worried about, so she thought about it and decided to buy a brush for Gu Jinnian tomorrow.

Gu Jinnian was diligent and studious. He studied in the village school during the day, and practiced calligraphy by lighting candles at night. When he met Muxiu, he also got up early and went to the study to study and practice calligraphy by himself. As a consumable, this brush is naturally not too much.

After making up his mind, Su Mo sent Gu Pingan and Gu Jinnian to collect the dishes and take them to the kitchen to wash them.

Then let Gu Xingnian accompany Gu Qinhan to bask in the sun in the courtyard, while he went to tidy up the room reserved for Gu Xingnian and give it to Gu Qinhan first.

After the room was cleaned up, Gu Pingan and the others also washed the dishes.

Su Mo walked over and said: "You two brothers, don't wander around, I'll go to the village chief, do you understand?"

After finishing speaking, he gave Gu Jinnian a look and asked him to look at Gu Ping'an.

Gu Jinnian understood and nodded slightly to indicate that he would.

Only then did Su Mo go out in peace of mind, and when she left, she didn't forget to lock the courtyard door.

The gate of the village chief's house was crowded with people, most of them belonged to the Wang clan. Even the clan elders who had been to Wang Yingying's house to try Wang Yingying and her mother for stealing Su Mo's wild boar were alarmed.

The woman bowed her head, crying repulsively, with a child standing beside her.

The younger children looked confused, not knowing why their mother and grandma were crying.

The children who are already sensible have different expressions, some are crying silently, some are clumsily comforting the elders, and some are standing expressionless, without any sense of existence.

Su Mo glanced roughly, and found that most of the expressionless little girls were thin and small, wearing yellow and shabby clothes, and their hair was also withered and yellow.

She suddenly understood something in her heart, but she couldn't take care of the other family's affairs, and she didn't need to take care of them.

With great effort, Su Mo squeezed through the crowd and entered the village head's house. After entering, he saw an old acquaintance inside.

Li Feng actually came over.

Su Mo was a little surprised, but when he saw the village chief's son next to him, he understood a little bit. He was afraid that the village chief's son had run into him when he went to report to the police last night.

It's just that Li Feng is Fang Shi's subordinate, and Fang Shi has a close relationship with the Hu family. The black armor guards have sealed up the Hu family. How did Li Feng, who was traveling between the two places, escape?

Su Mo narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling a little wary of Li Feng in her heart.

Li Feng also saw Su Mo, and thinking of what Fang Shi said in his letter, he quickly waved his hand and asked the village chief's son to talk later, while he himself greeted Su Mo.

"Madam Gu, you're here."

After finishing speaking, Li Feng glanced to the side, and when he saw someone looking over, he changed his words immediately.

"Yesterday afternoon, I passed by the tailor shop, and I heard that Mrs. Yang from the other house said that someone was looking for the shopkeeper, so I guessed it was you.

It's just that the new county magistrate arrived in Haiyan County the day before yesterday, and the county government has a lot of things to do, so I thought I'd have time to come over and send you a letter, but at night, I ran into someone from your village reporting to the government..."

New county magistrate?

So the yamen servant with a fresh face and an accent from the Gaozhou government mentioned by the village chief is the person brought by the new county magistrate...

Su Mo held back her thoughts, adjusted her expression, her brows and eyes showed a bit of worry, and asked along with Li Feng's words.

"The sister Fang?"
