Chapter 1209： Extra 2: Guo Wenhao

Chapter 1209 Extra Chapter 2 Guo Wenhao

July, the hottest period in the hot summer.

Everything in the world is hot and wilted, lacking a bit of vitality.

Outside Xindu, in Guojiazhuangzi, Guo Wenhao, wearing a moon-white gown, was walking under the shade of a tree with his one-year-old daughter in his arms.

The little daughter is chubby and cute, especially her big eyes, which are slightly bent like crescent moons when she smiles, making people happy for no reason.

Mrs. Guo came in from the outside with her mother-in-law. She couldn't help but laugh when she saw the father and daughter so close. She said angrily, "Master, it's so hot, don't hold Jiaojiao! This child is like a small stove, I can't even hold it." live!"

"It's okay!" Guo Wenhao waved his hand and said with a gentle smile, "You are busy with your business. I finally took a day off to spend more time with the child."

He was originally from a scholarly family. Within two years of the new emperor's accession to the throne, he was awarded the title of Tanhualang and entered the Hanlin Academy to edit books. Now he is becoming more elegant and gentle, and his gestures are full of romance and freehand expression.

Even though they have been married for many years, Mrs. Guo couldn't help but blush and hurried into the house.

She is the daughter of the Zhou family. Because her cousin has become the dean of the academy, the family has been planning to ask her cousin to find a good husband for her in the academy.

Uncle Tang also agreed, so she worked hard to read and write. Not only did she become proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she even became a good embroiderer. She often made clothes and shoes for Tang Uncle and his mother-in-law.

Before the Li family left Xindu, the boys of the Li family were favored by all the unmarried women because they did not take concubines.

She also secretly calculated which boy from the Li family was about the same age as her.

As a result, the Li family retreated to the south overnight, leaving her disappointed and anxious for a long time.

Later, the previous emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne. There was chaos everywhere.

It was her cousin who told her to wait a moment, as there would be a better candidate.

She could only wait patiently, and finally she got this good marriage.

Her husband was the courtier of the day, with outstanding literary talent and outstanding character, and both his parents had passed away!

Being treated as one's own as soon as you enter the house is simply a good marriage that no woman can dream of.

She was not even afraid of outsiders gossiping, and she got married only two months apart from the engagement and marriage.

The family was worried that the Guo family had no foundation, so they prepared a generous dowry for her.

The Guo family did not have much money as she guessed.

But one month after the wedding, many congratulatory gifts came from Quanzhou.

There was a deed to a shop and a letter among them.

Then, the manager of the family went to the city and took charge of a shop, specializing in selling novelty items from overseas. Everything was very expensive, but the customers kept getting through.

The family only uses 20% of the profit as hard-earned money, but even 20% of the profit is scary.

Within a few years, yards and shops were bought in the city, and the village expanded, buying out a hundred acres of fertile land around it...



Mrs. Zhou came to her senses, and while looking through the account books on the table, she looked out the window, but her husband and daughter were nowhere to be seen!

“Where are the master and the young lady?” she asked the maid next to her.

The maid responded, "Just now, the young master came in from outside and shouted that it was hot. Then the master took the young lady and the young master out. There was a carriage ready in the front yard. I heard that he was going to Suijin Beach to pick jasper melons."

The maid had a smile on her face and was glad in her heart that her master was kind.

If the master brings back the jade melon from Broken Gold Beach, they who are waiting on him will definitely share two pieces.

In such a hot weather, no one can help but be happy when they think of the cold and sweet jade melon!

But she didn’t see that the smile in the mistress’s eyes faded a little...

The melon garden at Broken Gold Beach is definitely the busiest place in summer.

Every family’s carriage wants to run three times a day just to buy a few big, green jade melons.

For this reason, the paths leading to Broken Gold Beach in Xindu have been widened a lot, just to make it easier for people to come and go. The old village chief, Uncle Zhao and others went to the south. The person in charge of the village was replaced by Uncle Wang, who was in his sixties, a smiling old man who was warm and kind, and could say a few words to everyone he met.

As soon as Guo Wenhao, his five-year-old son, and his one-year-old daughter got off the carriage, Uncle Wang laughed and came forward.

“Master Guo is here, alas, the young master and the young lady are here too!”

The sound of Mr. Guo made Guo Wenhao instantly return to the past, when he followed the Li brothers in and out of the village, that relaxed and comfortable time.

He took the children and saluted, "Uncle Wang, the children are making noises about eating jade melons. I brought two jars of wine. I wonder if I can exchange them for a jade melon?"

“Of course I can change it!” Uncle Wang laughed brightly, “You are half a member of our Li family. Not to mention bringing me wine, you can just come and eat every day with nothing.”

"Let's go!" Uncle Wang picked up the fat boy and put it on his shoulders and greeted him, "In my shack, I used well water to prepare a jade melon early in the morning. I cut it just in time to quench your thirst."

The group walked through the melon field and arrived at the shack.

Uncle Wang neatly took out a dripping jade melon from the big wooden bucket in the corner, which made the children cheer and clap their hands.

Uncle Wang was even more happy. He held a three-foot-long knife in his hand and split open the jade melon, revealing the bright red pulp inside!

After repeated attempts, the jade melon was divided into small pieces. The two children divided the largest and reddest part and couldn't wait to eat it.

At this time, another person came to buy melons. The villagers could not greet them, so Uncle Wang hurried to help.

 Guo Wenhao lifted up his gown, sat on the thatched straw mat, ate the melon slowly while enjoying the cool breeze, and suddenly the impatience in his heart disappeared.

Recently, the court has begun to allocate personnel to Jiangbei.

He felt it was time to go back!

Go back to the place where he was born, the ancestral land of the Guo family, and the sad place where his parents and relatives died in hatred.

Once he was weak and incompetent, once he was helpless, but now he has grown strong enough to take on the important task of reviving the family.

The ancestors of the Guo family must be watching him in heaven, waiting for him!

It’s just…

He looked into the distance, at the princess's mansion half-hidden behind the woods, as well as the villages in the distance, the busy villagers, everything quiet and beautiful, and sighed slightly in his heart.

He had thought many times about marrying the girl he loved and living in this land with her for the rest of his life.

But he was burdened with the heavy burden of family revival, and he didn't want to drag her along with him.

Her family would not agree and did not want her to work hard.

So, thinking about it is just thinking about it...

 Last time I wrote to Quanzhou, I heard that she and her husband went to climb Laojun Cliff, the highest and most beautiful mountain in Tianwu, and even stayed there for a month.

No family burdens, no worldly burdens, only freedom and a life of your own free will!

He was envious and happy for her.

Some fate passed quietly through his world and then disappeared.

He doesn't complain, just regrets...

I hope that in the next life, there will be a chance that they will meet each other when they are young, grow up together with each other, and then grow old together.

He takes care of all her beauty and innocence, and he openly owns and participates in all her joys, sorrows and joys...
