Chapter 3 Can't Come Back

Gu San picked up a piece of rib for the little flower sitting next to him and said, "I've watched it all the way. Although this year is chaotic, the harvest is good. I feel unhappy if I have too much food. I think there are some scattered soldiers, but there are no refugees. As long as people have food, they are not scared. I don't think there is a big problem."

No, people have hope when they have food, and they will not do anything desperately.

Gu San shook two bowls of rice again, wiped his mouth and said to Gu Tianshi:

"Mom, I have to go to Zhazi Mountain tomorrow morning. I promised the people there to deliver some goods to them a few days ago."

Gu Tian said concernedly: "Are you still with your Uncle Fu and Tietou? Although Zhazi Mountain is not far away, you should not run around alone in this world."

"Tietou's mother was not in a good state. He was worried that she was alone at home. This time she would not go with us. Only Uncle Fu and I were with us."

It is unsafe for a person to trade goods in the north and across the country. He needs to be with his fellow countrymen and brothers.

Uncle Fu is from the neighboring village, and Tietou is from the village. That is, because the three of them are quite burly, Gu San is very good at being skilled and brave, so the three of them work together and can be regarded as a small caravan.

"Well, just be sure of it yourself." Gu Tian nodded.

Speaking of goods, Li Sushang happened to have something to say. She held the bowl and quickly spit out the bones in her mouth, and continued:

"Brother Third, if you are convenient on the road, please help me collect some chickens, ducks and geese feathers. There are not enough ducks at home. I also want to make down clothes for my parents before winter."

Gu San responded in one go.

Just caring about the twitching corners of Tian's mouth, I thought to myself that Qiu Niang had a fight with the duck. She didn't have enough of her own family, and she wanted other people's ducks to become bald.

Qian Chunhong didn't know these small lawsuits, but just joked: "My third uncle is good at everything, can make money, and looks pretty good. It's better when he can get a wife in the family."

"Yes, yes!" Sun Yan smiled with her handkerchief and said with a smile.

Now Gu Sanyi is the only one who is not married to the Gu family at the right age, so it is naturally the focus of the whole family.

Gu Tian was immediately distracted and said sternly: "This is the reason. The third brother should not know how to run around every day. Getting married quickly is the top priority."

Gu San sighed when he heard this. He obviously heard similar words countless times, with a helpless expression, but just vague: "That means that my fate has not come yet, and this thing cannot be anxious."

Gu Tian shook his face and glared at him: "What fate hasn't come! You think the girl from the Liu family in the east end is black, you think the daughter of Zhao Xiucai in the west end is ugly, your second sister-in-law in the county introduces her family in good condition, you think the other person is short, what kind of thing do you think you are looking for? Can you marry a princess and come back?"

Gu San was so guilty that he was frivolous, his eyes were fluttering, and he was still stubborn: "I can't say that I will marry a princess in the future."

"Take it down, you really dare to think about it. Who can marry you, princess?" Gu Tian rolled his eyes.

Gu San was a mean and said: "Your son is handsome and talented. You must have someone who likes me. You have to marry me."

Gu Tianshi lowered her chopsticks and glared.

Seeing that my sister-in-law and second sister-in-law and Li Sushang were about to talk about this topic.

Gu San could not bear the urge to marry the four women from home, so he quickly put down his chopsticks.

He got up and ran outside the yard, lifted up the linoleum on the box car, and shouted: "I have collected a lot of dried mushrooms and dried fruits from the side of Zhazishan. You families will divide it by themselves. I will go home to clean up."

Several adults were speechless. Gu San was a habitual offender and came to change the topic again.

But the children were happy, cheered when they heard this, and climbed onto the box car like little beasts.

After saying that, Gu San returned to the old house without stopping.

It seemed as if there were some evil ghosts and beasts behind him. Buddhism says that women are tigers, so they will never deceive them.

Seeing this, several women were so angry that they laughed, but continued to talk about how to deal with this batch of winter goods.

When he saw the box, the things were indeed in sacks. Sun Yan smiled: "The third brother is still like this, and he is not afraid that it will break after being put for a long time. The batch of coarse cloth he gave last time has not been finished yet. I have made two clothes for Gu Er and Xiao Huaer up and down."

Qian Chunhong couldn't help laughing: "Who said no?"

Other people's peddlers prevented the purchase of goods in moderation, but Gu San seemed to have some hoarding habits. Every time he would send the whole car to his home. Several women were used to keeping some of the rest at home and giving them the rest to their parents' home or relatives.

The next morning.

Gu San and Uncle Fu drove to receive the goods.

Sun Yan happened to be able to take a taxi into the city, and her mother's home is in Fengyuan County.

The sun shone on her face, and she even felt a little hurt by the sun.

This is always the case in Fengyuan’s winter, standing under the sun and in the shade is like two seasons.

After getting off the car, Sun Yan said goodbye to Gu San and others.

She held the dried fruit candied fruits that Gu Sanfen gave to each family yesterday in her left hand, and led the little flowers in her right hand.

The little flower is not honest when walking, it is crooked and jumps around.

Her father said he was a minor official in the county town, but he was just a person who was on duty at the county government office.

That day, Mr. Sun happened to be off work. When she saw her coming back, she smiled when she saw Xiao Huaer from afar.

"Let me show my grandfather, whose little girl is so handsome?"

Sun was helpless and happy. Her father was so serious in the yamen that he saw his niece as if he had changed.

Dad Sun ignored Sun Yan and just hugged the little flower and entered the main hall with "Flying~" and "Flying~".

When Sun's mother saw it, she hurriedly took what Sun Yan had from her hand: "Oh! So much."

Sun Yan just smiled: "It was given by her third uncle."

Mrs. Sun's face was also full of joy, and the two of her mother sighed: "It's better to marry into a good family. My uncle, uncle, sister-in-law, and mother-in-law are good. Not only are there no one to make things difficult for anyone, but they still think about anyone with good things. They don't hesitate to do anything. The son-in-law treats you well, which shows that there is no harm in marrying a low person."

Sun Yan also laughed and said proudly: "You thought Gu Er would be verbally polite and were unhappy to marry me to him."

Sun's mother just smiled at this time: "I misunderstood the truth at the beginning."

Sun Yan stopped arguing and just whispered to her mother: "I'm content with having another son for him."

Sun Yanniang nodded: "This is the right thing."

Sun Yan followed into the house and saw her father still teasing Xiaohua'er. He asked, "Dad, a few days ago, the county recruited civilians, and the Gu family's family had all gone. Do you know when Gu Er and the others will come back?"

Dad Sun looked at Sun Yan calmly and put down the little flower.

"Go and go to the kitchen to see what your grandma has made."

As Xiao Huaer ran out, the smile on Mr. Sun's face gradually fell.

Sun's heart slowly became cold.

...

In the afternoon, Li Sushang cleaned the yard, and the ducks beside him kept clattering.

The ducks were timid. Although they were in the duck house, they were frightened and screamed when they were moved outside. Li Sushang didn't care. He waved the broom and swept it in a few strokes.

She originally thought that no matter how her second sister-in-law did, she would have lunch at her parents' house before returning.

But unexpectedly, just after noon, she saw her bringing Xiao Huaer back, and she didn't go back to rest, so she went straight into Li Sushang's house.

Li Sushang hurriedly came out to greet her, but was at a loss. Sun Yan's eyes were a little red, and she pushed Xiao Hua'er: "Go and call your uncle here."

The little flower nodded obediently and ran away like a madman as if it were a muddy cow entering the sea.

Only then did Sun Yan hold Li Sushang's arm, as if she could finally not hold on.

Gu Tian was originally doing work on the kang, but when he heard the movement, he quickly pulled his shoes out and asked, "Swallow, what's wrong?"

"Mom!" Sun Yan trembled all over and choked out, "They can't come back!" The voice was almost shrill, like the cry of the night owl.
