Guo Mo had a guess in his mind and just wanted to confirm it.
After all, if the guess is true, then this baby will also be a great person in the future.
"Hey, what an injustice -"
Yang Tiexin drank three glasses of wine in a row and shouted into the room.
"Nian'er, it will be more convenient in a while. Take the child out and let Mo'er see him too."
Seeing that Yang Tiexin was unwilling to say anything, Guo Mo was also drinking quietly beside him, waiting for Mu Nianci to come out.
After a long time, the baby's cries in the room gradually became quieter, and later even "gurgling" laughter could be heard.
"Wow, what a beautiful baby. Come let 'sister' hold it."
"Sister Huang, he has to call you 'aunt'."
"Mom, is this a younger brother or younger sister?"
"Giggle..."
Unlike the dullness in the yard, the house seemed very cheerful.
After a while, the girls also came to the yard, but the baby was carefully held in Huang Rong's arms.
"Brother Mo, come and see, what a beautiful baby. He is still a boy. When he grows up, he will charm many beautiful girls. Sister Mu is so lucky!" Huang Rong praised sincerely.
"Little junior sister, if you like children, you should marry Uncle Guo as soon as possible and have one."
Nan Qin joked from the side that along the way, the two of them have become good sisters who talk about everything.
"Humph, I don't want it. I miss my child, so I'll 'bully' my apprentice. Xiao Nantian comes here..."
Nan Tian heard this from the sidelines and looked at his mother innocently, but Nan Qin gave him a look that said, "You are asking for more blessings."
Seeing that they liked their children so much, a rare smile appeared on Mu Nianci's face.
Guo Mo also stood up and came to Huang Rong.
Sure enough, it was a beautiful baby.
A pair of bright black eyes, always smiling, long eyelashes, and double eyelids, very much like Mu Nianci, but his mouth and face are exactly like that person.
"Sister Mu, how old is this child?" Guo Mo asked.
"Brother Guo, the child was born on July 20 last year, so he is already more than nine months old."
When it comes to children, Mu Nianci's eyes are filled with happiness.
Guo Mo gently took the child over, and Mu Nianci was a little worried, fearing that Guo Mo wouldn't be able to hold him well.
The little baby seemed to be very excited. He actually reached out his hands to hug Guo Mo's neck. He grinned and let out a series of "giggles", and even had two faint "dimples".
.
Guo Mo's heart skipped a beat inexplicably.
"Sister Mu, has this child been given a name?"
Mu Nianci did not answer, but looked at Yang Tiexin beside him.
"Mo'er, this is my grandson, Yang Tiexin. I have named him 'Yang Guo'. I hope that when he grows up, he will not be like that 'unfilial son'. Even if he does something wrong, he must understand his mistakes and be able to do so."
There is no greater good than reform."
"'Yang Guo'? I didn't expect the inertia of 'history' to be so big?"
Without the tragic death of Yang Tiexin and the sworn sworn relationship between Guo Jing and Yang Kang, Mu Nianci still walked with Yang Kang, and the son he gave birth to was still called "Yang Guo."
It's normal to think about it. After all, what Yang Kang did exists objectively. Whether in another time and space or here, the public's judgment on his behavior is basically the same.
Guo Jing and Yang Tiexin also had surprisingly similar cognitions on major issues of right and wrong, so the name "Yang Guo" came into being in response to popular expectations.
Guo Mo gently played with little Yang Guo's face, which made the little guy laugh even more happily.
"Uncle Yang, I see that this child is very cute. If you are willing, when the child grows a few years older, I would like to accept this child as my disciple. What do you think?"
Guo Mo said it very sincerely and was afraid that Yang Tiexin would refuse.
"Okay, Mo'er, aren't you making fun of your uncle? Are you really planning to accept this kid as your disciple?"
Although Yang Tiexin's martial arts skills were not high, he spent some time with the "Seven Quanzhen Sons" and the "Seven Jiangnan Monsters" and often listened to them talking about the two brothers Guo Jing and Guo Mo.
He even witnessed the martial arts of Guo Jing and Guo Mo with his own eyes during the battle in "Zhongdu".
Everyone thinks that Guo Mo's martial arts is even better, and since he is only twenty years old now, it will certainly become even more impressive in time.
I am already like this, and I am afraid that I can't count on that "rebellious son". If one day I let go and leave Nian'er with her children, orphans and widowers, how will I make a living?
Yang Tiexin was really overjoyed to see Guo Mo actually offering to take the child as his disciple.
"Look at what Uncle Yang said. If you don't have any objections, I will accept you as my apprentice today. In the future, when the child grows up a few years, I will formally accept him as a disciple. The Mu family girls will not object, right?"
Guo Mo asked Mu Nianci with a smile again.
Mu Nianci couldn't tell that this was Brother Guo who wanted to help his family, so he nodded in agreement, with tears of gratitude in his eyes.
Guo Mo suddenly remembered the plot of another time and space, maybe it was caused by his own psychological plot, and thought briefly.
"Since Uncle Yang has already named his child 'Yang Guo', as a master, I will give him a name. How about changing the name to 'Yang Guo'?"
Yang Tiexin and Mu Nianci muttered a few words and found that it was pretty good, so they settled on it.
"Brother Mo, I still wanted to be the 'godmother' for my child? Now I have become the 'master's wife'?"
Huang Rong pouted and complained, but her eyes were full of smiles.
"Wow, I have a little junior brother? Master, shouldn't he be called 'Master' like me? Why can he be called 'Master's Wife'?"
Xiao Nantian was beside him and asked aggrievedly.
"Hahaha——" Everyone was in an uproar again.
Guo Mo took out two thousand taels of silver notes from his arms and handed them to Yang Tiexin.
"Uncle Yang, if you want to live in Niujia Village, I suggest you open a 'wine shop'."
"Although the population of 'Niujia Village' is not very large, the surrounding villages are not too far away. If you choose a better location, there will still be some passers-by from the south to the north."
Yang Tiexin took the banknote. He knew that this was Guo Mo's deliberate excuse for fear of his rejection.
However, when talking about "wine shop", he couldn't help but think of the "Qusan Tavern" at the east end of "Niujiacun" village.
"Mo'er, to tell you the truth, this 'Niujia Village' actually had a tavern before, right at the east end of the village, called 'Qu San Tavern'."
"When I came back this time, I found that it had been abandoned. Occasionally I could see a little girl there. If I really want to open a tavern, the location there would be good."
Seeing that Yang Tie was moved, Guo Mo simply went to have a look together, as Wu Mienfeng had difficulty moving for the time being.
Guo Mo, Huang Rong, Yang Tiexin, followed by Xiao Nantian, and the four of them went to the east end of the village.
The village has a small number of households and the area is not too small. From Yang's house to the "Qu San Tavern" at the east end of the village, there is about a mile of land.
Not far away, I saw a solitary tavern. There was no one else within twenty feet, but it was right on the official road from Lin'an. It was indeed a good place for doing business.
When I came closer, I found that the plaque of "Qu San Tavern" was still hanging on it, but there were many people and no one was taking care of it. There was a thick layer of dust and a lot of spider webs.
When I opened the door and went in, there wasn't much dust. It seemed like people were coming in and out from time to time.
The tavern has only one floor, and the area inside the restaurant is pretty good. If you want to dine at the same time, you can place a dozen Eight Immortals tables.
On the left side of the door is the counter, which is actually scattered. There are a few broken wine jars on the counter, and they are also covered with thick dust.
Further inside is the back kitchen. The back kitchen is not very big. Judging from the structure, there is only one stove. It seems that the tavern mainly sold wine before and rarely provided dishes to guests.
After exiting the kitchen, there is a very small courtyard, with only two and a half rooms, which should have been the residence of the owner of the shop at that time.
After walking around for a while, several people returned to the tavern. There were broken tables and chairs, and they couldn't sit down. Everything of any value had already been taken away.
"Uncle Yang, this place is in a good location, but everything else is unusable. It seems that it needs to be completely demolished and a new tavern built."
"It's such a good location. It's a pity that it's abandoned. I still have contact with the person who built my house before. I'll find someone to come over in two days and clean it up completely."
Yang Tiexin seems to have really thought about it, maybe for the sake of his grandson. Once a person has thoughts, he will be energetic in life.
"Uncle Yang, since you want to build a house, I suggest you build it bigger. Besides, the place you live in now is indeed a bit small. Just build two more yards in the back house of this tavern."
"In the future, when my children grow up, or if friends come over, I will have a place to live."
After speaking and roughly making some calculations, Guo Mo took out another five thousand taels of silver notes from his pocket and handed them to Yang Tiexin.
"Mo'er, this...this is too much."
Yang Tiexin has been in poverty all his life. Where has he seen so much money?
The previous two thousand taels was somewhat like a greeting gift from the master to his apprentice, and Yang Tiexin was embarrassed to refuse.
Now, Guo Mo took out another five thousand taels, and the old man was a little at a loss.
"Uncle Yang, just take it. Even if it is my investment in the tavern and I make money in the future, you can pay me back if you want."
"In addition, my eldest brother, my mother, and I are not in Niujia Village for the time being, and it is unlikely that the Guo family will build a large house here."
"You could just make the back house bigger and build it according to the standards of two families. Maybe the money won't be enough."
Hearing what Guo Mo said, Yang Tiexin knew that the child had not cheated on him, so with tears in his eyes, he put the banknote tightly into his arms with peace of mind.
"Okay, since Moer said so, uncle will accept your wishes."
"Find someone to build the tavern first, and then build our house as you wish."
"I'm just waiting for the day when your mother and my old sister-in-law can come back to live, and you and Jing'er can come back with your wife and children. Then our family will be lively."
Yang Tiexin was talking to herself, but tears flowed down. She didn't know whether it was because she was moved or because she thought of something or someone.
"Master, come on, is there a ghost here? Why can't I lift this bowl?"
Guo Mo was accompanying Yang Tiexin, making future plans, when Xiao Nantian's voice came from beside him.
"Xiao Tian'er, let me see if there's anything worth making a fuss about."
Huang Rong ran over first, "Brother Mo, this bowl is really weird."
Guo Mo and Yang Tiexin also gathered around. Seeing this scene, Guo Mo certainly knew what was going on.
"Rong'er, let me do it."
Guo Mo touched the bowl gently with his hand. It felt cold. There was some rust powder where the bottom of the bowl was in contact with the countertop.
"Rong'er, this is still an 'iron rice bowl'."
Guo Mo made a joke that no one could understand. He grabbed the iron bowl with one hand and turned it to the right. With a "crunch, click" sound, the cabinet wall next to him cracked on the left and right, revealing a dark door hole in the middle.
It came out, it was disgusting.
"You...what are you playing? Are you playing ghost hunt? Silly girl is here to play too -"
I don't know when, a teenage girl ran in from outside, but this girl was dressed in tatters, her face was smeared with mud, and she had two braids, but one of her horns was already hanging down.
"Little girl, where have you gone?"
Seeing the person coming, Yang Tiexin greeted.
This was the girl he had seen at "Qu San Tavern" before. Seeing that she was all alone, Yang Tiexin asked Mu Nianci to feed her. Even the braid on her head was the same as Mu Nianci's a few days ago.
Ci gave her the prick.
"Ah, it's you, Eunuch Yang. I'm not called 'little girl', I'm called 'silly aunt'. You have to remember that."
Guo Mo saw the appearance of Shagu, and the original intention of this trip to "Niujia Village" was finally achieved.
After the stench in the cave dissipated for a long time, Guo Mo also made a simple torch and walked into the cave first.
The hole was not deep, only about a foot long, and the stench just now came from two rotting skeletons.
One was at the entrance of the cave, apparently facing outwards, and the other was in the northeast corner, lying on a large iron box with a sharp knife stuck between the ribs.
"Brother Mo, have you discovered anything?"
When Huang Rong saw Guo Mo walking in, she ignored the unpleasant smell and followed in. She just asked Nan Tian to stay outside with Yang Tiexin.
By the light of the torch, there was a golden light shining in the corner of the iron box.
Huang Rong stepped forward, bent down and picked it up. It turned out to be a specially made gold medal. There was also an inscription on the gold medal: "Shi Yanming, the martial arts master Zhongzhou Defense Envoy, is given the royal weapon."
"Brother Mo, an official died here."
Huang Rong looked at another skeleton and found an "Iron Bagua" on the chest of that skeleton.
Huang Rong's heart moved, "Brother Mo, take out that knife and see if there is a font on the handle."
Guo Mo pulled out the sharp knife and saw that the word "qu" was actually engraved on the handle.
"If my guess is correct, the skeleton at the entrance of the cave should belong to my third senior brother 'Qu Lingfeng'."
Guo Mo looked at the body again, and sure enough he saw the skeleton at the entrance of the cave. The leg bones were partially broken.
Guo Mo moved the skeleton on the big iron box to one side, opened the lid of the box, and the cave suddenly became bright.
It turns out that this box is full of precious jade and antiques. Occasionally there are some fine gold objects, but most of them are calligraphy and paintings of famous people from ancient and modern times.
Wu Daozi's "Picture of the Heavenly King Sending His Son", Han Gan's "Picture of Herding Horses", Li Houzhu of the Southern Tang Dynasty's "Figure of Crossing the Forest and Spring"...all are masterpieces by famous artists.
"Rong'er, your third senior brother must have stolen the palace, which led to the pursuit of the masters in the palace, and finally died here together."
"He collected these rare treasures, presumably because he wanted to present them to your father so that he could return to 'Peach Blossom Island', right?"
Huang Rong was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but she immediately understood what Guo Mo meant and completely agreed with his "inference".
Seeing that there was nothing else, the two people retreated from the cave. Huang Rong still held the sharp knife and the "Iron Bagua" in her hand.
"Mo'er, where is this?" Yang Tiexin asked.
Before Guo Mo could answer, he heard the "silly girl" next to him yell.
"This belongs to silly aunt, this belongs to silly aunt, silly aunt wants-"
Then, at an extraordinary speed, he grabbed the "Iron Bagua" in Huang Rong's hand...
