Gu Chengchi came in time for lunch, and his expression today was completely different from the past, and he seemed a little excited.
After everyone had set the table, Gu Chengchi, uncharacteristically, took a step ahead of his father and told him why he was happy.
"Dad! Mr. Li has agreed to make me his apprentice. Starting tomorrow, I will officially learn medical skills from Mr. Li."
"What? Didn't Mr. Li disagree at first? Why do you agree now?" He asked curiously. Everyone knew about Gu Chengchi a few days ago. After all, they kept running to Mr. Li's house.
, everyone would be surprised, right?
"Li Langzhong said that I was honest and perseverant, so he accepted me!" Gu Chengchi touched his head in embarrassment and told Li Langzhong what he meant.
"Xiaobao! I won't learn Chinese calligraphy from you! Mr. Li said he would teach me." Because he had to move, he delayed learning Chinese calligraphy. He planned to teach him after he moved.
"Fourth brother! Congratulations! You got what you wanted! Uncle Li is a good man. Since he promised you, he will teach you carefully. Don't let him down." Gu Chengyu was sincerely happy for them. Gu Chengchi had a pure nature.
, I will definitely take good care of them in the future.
"Fourth brother, such a good thing is unimaginable. You must be nicer to Mr. Li in the future. He only has one daughter. Since you have become his apprentice, you cannot refuse to take care of him until the end of his life. That is your responsibility.
It should be done." In fact, Father Gu was also worried that Mr. Li was originally interested in Xiaobao, and he was afraid that he would not agree to the fourth son, but his dream turned out to be true.
Gu Chengyu felt that Mr. Li was more impressed by Gu Chengchi's persistence when he accepted the fourth brother. No matter what, this was a good start. He believed that the fourth brother would be able to learn it well. After all, he really liked medicine.
.
Mrs. He muttered, why could such a good thing not happen to her family's Erlang and Sanlang?
"What I'm saying today is that official documents have come down from the top. Tomorrow, a business trip will come down. Mom, prepare the money and we'll hand it over when the business trip comes." Father Gu was very happy at this moment.
The family has enough money.
When the general is in the village, everyone is in a frenzy. Who can afford eighteen taels? If you can't afford it, you have to pay someone else. Everyone knows how dangerous it is to build the river embankment this time.
The thing is, it's also difficult to ask who should go.
It seems that there will be a lot of people in the village going to do corvee this time, but I don’t know if they can all come back.
"Mom! Didn't his brother-in-law say that everyone in the family has fabrics? Take them out and show them to us!" Seeing that everyone had finished talking, He couldn't wait to ask about the fabrics.
"Then why don't you wait to put away all the dishes? How do you fix the soup when the cloth is stained?" Seeing He's impatient look, Mrs. Lu snorted coldly. She is short-sighted.
After Mrs. Fang and others took away the bowls and chopsticks, Ms. Lu took out all the cloth. She asked Mr. He and Mr. Fang to bring scissors, and measured the dimensions for everyone in the family, preparing to cut them.
"Ah! This color is so beautiful. Is this really made for me? This color is what I am called! His brother-in-law still has me as his second sister-in-law in his heart!" Mr. He traced the piece of snow-green material on his body.
, gestured, but just couldn’t bear to let it go.
Gu Chengyu's mouth twitched when he heard this. This second sister-in-law always says amazing things!
When Mrs. Lu called Mr. He, she was shocked, "You're from the second family! You're a mouthful of shit, what are you talking about? If you keep talking nonsense, why don't I tear your mouth to pieces?" Mrs. Lu's eyes were like arrows.
, as if to pierce a hole in He's body.
Gu Chengyi also laughed angrily at this stupid woman. What did she say? Can a second sister-in-law say this to her brother-in-law?
After receiving so many glances and flying daggers, He finally became more sober, "Hey! Look at my mouth! I'm talking about my brother-in-law!"
As soon as he said this, Gu Chengyu felt that he had received another thunder. Could you please stop mentioning him?
Mrs. Fang glanced at Mr. He and only focused on touching the cloth in her hand. This was fine cotton! She hadn't even worn it. Sure enough, Da Ya was right. Following his uncle, she might really be able to live a good life.
Erya and the others also looked happy. They all picked up adults' clothes and changed their clothes. When did they wear new clothes?
After the cloth was cut, Father Gu estimated the time. Around the beginning of the hour, Gu Chengyu planned to practice calligraphy for a while. Although he wrote the homework assigned by the master in the afternoon, he still needed to practice his calligraphy.
It was getting dark, so the Gu family naturally bolted the courtyard door. At this hour, no one would come out and break in.
Just as Gu Chengyu was spreading the paper, there was a loud knock on the courtyard door. Gu Chengyu was a little confused, who could be coming?
"Boss, open the door!" Ms. Lu shouted towards the east wing, which was, after all, closer to the courtyard gate.
"Hey! Here we come!" Mrs. Fang was making clothes for the little ones on the kang at this time. Women from farmer's families don't know how to do embroidery, but they all know how to make clothes. The only difference is that they are made carefully and beautifully.
or not.
"I'll go!" Gu Chengli saw that the baby's mother and children were very happy today. They all gathered around the kang and talked about what kind of clothes they should make to look good. Such a warm feeling seemed to have not happened for a long time.
Gu Chengli recalled his life in the past few years, and then he remembered that Mr. Fang rarely smiled. Looking at Mr. Fang's smiling face, he couldn't bear to ruin such a good atmosphere.
"I don't know which one it is, go and have a look!" Seeing that Gu Chengli was leaving, Mrs. Fang retracted back to the kang and concentrated on sitting up with her clothes on. The one in her hand belonged to Da Lang, and Da Lang was
Boys grow up quickly, and their clothes have long been too short to expose their wrists, so I made them for Da Lang first.
"Hey!" Gu Chengli came out of the east wing and saw that the windows of the west wing were also propped up. He didn't hear any movement in the second room. Gu Chengli remembered that during the day, his second brother had said that he had lunch in the county town. In fact, they only ate alone.
Two steamed buns and four steamed buns only cost four cents. The second brother gave him six cents and asked him to hide them and not give them to his father.
When he handed over the money to his father, he really hesitated, and finally didn't give it. He felt bad after taking the six cents, and always felt sorry for his father and the others.
Touching the six cents in his arms, Gu Chengli shook his head and quickly walked forward to pull the door latch.
"Brother!"
"Xizi? Why are you back at this time?" Gu Chengli was surprised when he looked at Gu Xi outside the gate. It was almost dark, why did Gu Xi come back at this time?
"Brother! Go in and talk!" Gu Xi trembled her lips and looked very ugly.
"Hey! Come in quickly! I'll call dad and the others." Gu Chengli pulled Gu Xi into the courtyard door, and then bolted the door again.
"Dad! It's Xizi who's back!" Gu Chengli shouted, pulling Gu Xi towards the main room.
When Mrs. Lu heard the shouting, she was a little confused. Xizi? Why are you coming back at this time?
"What? Call her in quickly!" Father Gu was a little surprised when he heard that his eldest daughter was back.
