Chapter 54
Gu Wenxuan and Zhou Banxia were completely unaware of the drama going on in the backyard.

The two people who followed Liu's arrangement to take an early rest had already turned off the lights and slipped back into the study.

One is giving lectures, and the other is listening to lectures. It seems that they take a break after eleven o'clock.

Naturally, I don’t know what Mrs. Gu was whispering to Mr. Gu in bed in the middle of the night.

The next day, Gu Wenxuan still got up early and recited ancient prose before the morning meal, and Zhou Banxia also ushered in a rare day when he didn't need to get up early for his shift.

In a daze, she saw a scholar burning the midnight oil, and her eyes widened in shock.

Ok!

It’s not like I accidentally entered a Chinese chat room!

It's Xuanzi!
It was Xuanzi who claimed before going to bed that "the rooster crows at the third watch and the fifth watch is the time for men to study."

Zhou Banxia originally wanted to ask Gu Wenxuan if he wanted to go into the "study" to study, but seeing that he seemed to be reciting silently, he simply turned over and continued to sleep without disturbing him.

After this sleep, I woke up again and overslept.

Open the curtains, it's daybreak.

Gu Wenxuan has already gone to town.

Not only did he run away, but more people ran away than yesterday. Even Gu Dalang, who was half-step out of the door yesterday, was also missing. He didn't know where he went.

Is it possible that the father-in-law didn't have time to ask the fourth uncle for cooperation last night, and the old man took Gu Dalang to the county town to look for famous teachers early in the morning?
This thought flashed past, and Zhou Banxia hid the question deep in her heart.

Without saying a word, he asked Ma Shan if there was any familiar Orion family that had good things for sale.

She planned to buy some rare game and mountain products as gifts for the year, but she didn't know what local specialties she could get without spending a lot of money.

After roughly figuring out what good things were available in the mountains here and their corresponding prices, Zhou Banxia asked Ma Shan to go back to her parents' house to find out more for her when she had time.

After chatting for a while, she saw that even her fourth aunt wanted to take her children back to her parents' home, so she hurried back to her room and huddled in the room, not wanting to go out.

The windows were covered with light-transmitting paper, and the light was still okay. I found a pair of embroidered scriptures that Xiao Banxia had prepared for Mrs. Gao. It only took a few stitches to complete.

It was just that the room was a bit dark in the afternoon, and it was difficult to enter the space during the day. To protect his eyesight, Zhou Banxia decided not to do embroidery work.

Even though the muscle memory has been perfectly inherited, it's still a bit rough.

There is no rush. Fortunately, there is at least a month to prepare.

Even though she planned to go to Fucheng one month after her wedding, she didn't want to deliver the New Year's gift to the old lady in person. After all, she could send it here in time.

As long as it is a New Year's gift for the old lady, shopkeeper Wang will definitely help someone take it to Fucheng and hand it over to the senior management as soon as possible.

At that time, the senior executives will naturally transport Zhuangzi's New Year's goods and the New Year's gifts received by the family at the end of the year to the capital.

The problem lies in Shopkeeper Hu’s New Year’s gift...

"Daughter-in-law, I'm back."

Gu Wenxuan came back early today.

Not only did he "receive" the carpentry work that his master told him to do at home, but he also brought back the news that his father "received" the work at the hospital and would be away from home for a few days.

Mrs. Gu was very happy.

There are thirty coins a day, even if you don't include food, you won't lose. Even if you work early and rest until dark, you won't lose.

I didn't bother to ask my grandson if he would be paid on a piece-by-piece basis if he worked at home this time. If he worked more, his daily wages would be more than [-] cash.

Just like this little bastard said that he would help his master go to the village to find out who has wood to sell. If the two parties do not make some money, it will be in vain.

It's no use asking.

The cows had to be dragged out to eat grass, and these bastards were not allowed to hide a few coins one by one. Even their hands and feet would be much slower when working!But soon, she couldn't be happy anymore.

What?
Is your father out?
What's the trouble with this thief's son at this juncture? He happened to receive something from the medical center when he left home early in the morning and escorted him to Linxian County, and he happened to be missing someone to help him?

"How many days did you say you would go?"

Gu Wenxuan shook his head solemnly, "It's hard to say. I heard that there are still medicinal materials that will be brought back. My brother said that it will take three to five days soon. If it takes longer, we will have to wait for arrangements there."

Mrs. Gu laughed angrily.

He didn't escape very slowly!

Is he afraid that his father will send him again this time, and he is determined not to care about his eldest nephew?

"If Da Lang doesn't leave school one day, your father won't come back?"

How should he answer this question? He said he would see through it but not tell it.

Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but laugh, "My uncle is here, it doesn't matter if my father is at home or not."

Mrs. Gu immediately waved her hand and told her grandson to get out.

Gu Wenxuan already knew Mrs. Gu's reaction, otherwise he wouldn't have quoted thirty cash a day as wages.

Although moving goods in the town only costs twenty or thirty cents a day, and carpentry is a technical job that pays more, he is still an apprentice who has not yet graduated.

It's just to buy some peace and quiet, so as not to be rushed out every morning. Otherwise, with his father running away, the two parents' anger will be directed at his mother.

Not wanting to think too much, Gu Wenxuan went to the village first and before repairing the new house, he had already inquired about the people who had wood to sell, negotiated the price, and made an appointment to deliver it in the evening.

He was not idle when he got home, so he called on his uncles and cousins ​​from the neighbors to help him, and built a large shed next to the front yard wall and the woodshed using materials used for wedding receptions.

Time passed day by day, and it was an evening ten days later when Gu Erzhu returned.

As soon as he stepped through the courtyard gate, he was caught on the spot by Mrs. Gu. He didn't even have a chance to return to his room. He handed over nine days' wages. I heard that his Liulang had to hand in thirty Wen per day?
He knew it was a scam!
There's no way my old son could get a job from some ghost master.

I don’t know, doesn’t he still know?The old son’s apprenticeship was the one he personally found.

But no matter what the reason was, this was fine. While the old lady was happily taking out every penny he had, it would be a good time to get some benefits.

"They are much better than him and me." Fortunately, Erlang had more to spare, otherwise the three of him would have suffered miserably!
Gu Erzhu secretly felt lucky, "The wife I found is also good at embroidery, so I don't worry about her anymore.

Just one thing, mother, please tell me that Sanya finally learned how to embroider. Although the profit belongs to her, if she talks too much, it won’t be your grandson who loses.

This kid has been here for a while. I guess you can see that he is a good kid who doesn't stir up trouble, is filial and sensible, and he values ​​Mukuro very much, right? "

Mrs. Gu knew that her second son couldn't be honest!Thanks to her quick reaction, she almost nodded just now!

"You want Rokuro's wife to do nothing but embroider?"

That can't!
No more eyes!
Gu Erzhu shook his head, "You have so many grandsons-in-law, how can you just let Sanya do nothing.

This is not hurting her, but hurting her. I wonder if I can stop this child from doing the work that hurts my hands. "

Mrs. Gu laughed angrily and tapped her son's forehead with her finger, "Do you think your mother is confused? You were born to me, so I still don't know what your plans are!"

Aren't you just afraid that I will give your wife a heavy job?It's useless. It's useless to say anything.

I can't handle a bowl of water unevenly, so I can at best turn a blind eye. "

Gu Erzhu was disappointed, but he didn't expect that there would be a chance for a turnaround!
"Mother~"

Mrs. Gu immediately turned her head away from her son and said, "What's wrong with me, how can I deal with a son like you? You ran away so fast, get out of here!"
