Chapter 452 A bolt from the blue

Tieniu went away for an hour before coming back. When he came back, his face was full of joy and he ran to Gu Fei, "Cousin, Mr. Su has won the prize. I see his name is the first one, which is the same as what was written on your note. "

“I asked others again, and they told me that the first name of Jie Yuan was Su Chen.”

Gu Fei said Buddha, "It's okay, okay, alas, I'm afraid Mr. Su is still on the way, and I don't know any news about Xie Yuan."

Just as I was sighing, I saw the scholar who was stumbling after taking the exam that day had also come back. With a happy face, he was sitting in the lobby, craning his neck to look out.

Gu Fei felt something in her heart, she was afraid that this young man would also be hit.

Just as he was thinking about it, a group of people walked into the store beating gongs and drums. Several people who were registering stopped their horses at the door of the store and shouted at the door: "Mr. Xu Wenqing from Yunzhou Prefecture is here. Congratulations on graduating from high school."

Gu Fei saw the scholar's face beaming with joy, "Thank you, thank you all."

These reporters all rushed into the store, shouting congratulations.

Gu Fei quickly called the waiters in the shop to serve tea.

Some of these people went to the hall to hang up posters, and some surrounded Xu Wenqing to ask for wedding money.

Xu Wenqing's family was originally poor, otherwise he wouldn't have even had a bookboy. Now the little money he had scraped together has been spent, and there is no money left.

He was surrounded by people asking for money, and thinking that he only had a few big bucks in his pocket, he felt embarrassed for a moment.

Gu Fei saw it at the counter and quickly took out a few large handfuls of copper coins. He didn't even count them. He estimated that there were several thousand coins. He put them in a bamboo basket and asked Lian'er to carry them out.

These people hung up the posters, took the wedding money and left.

Xu Wenqing came over and thanked Gu Fei profusely, "I just thanked shopkeeper Gu a lot. I will definitely repay the girl's kindness in the future."

Gu Fei smiled and said, "Don't worry about the few small coins, Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu stayed in my shop, and the whole shop became happy with you."

Xu Wenqing's face turned slightly red and she thanked Gu Fei again and again.

In the afternoon, Gu Fei suddenly saw her mule cart parked at the door. As she was looking around, she saw Liu Zhu, the family's young man, getting off the cart and running straight in. He whispered to Gu Fei: "Miss, hurry up and go home." One time, Mrs. Cai received news from the army that the third young master had died for the country, and she also sent him a pension of ten taels. "

When Gu Fei heard this, he almost lost his mind and asked, "What's going on?"

Liu Zhu made a sad face, "I don't know what happened, but a government official sent a letter and money to my house and left."

 Gu Fei almost lost her balance for a moment, staggered twice, told Yan'er and Lian'er to look after the store, and hurriedly got into Liu Zhu's car and hurried home.

As soon as the car entered the front yard, I heard crying in the backyard.

Gu Fei walked in and saw the old lady sitting in the hall, supported by her aunt, both of whom were crying non-stop.

Erlang squatted there, wiping tears silently.

Not seeing Mrs. Chen, Lanzhi came out of the room with red eyes, pulled Gu Fei and said, "Mom cried so hard before that she fainted, so she helped her to the bed and lay down."

Gu Fei walked into the upper room and saw Mrs. Chen's eyes open, with tears streaming down her cheeks.

Li Chunhua sat next to her and wiped Chen's tears while she kept crying.

When Mrs. Chen saw Gu Fei, she wailed, "Xiao Fei, what can we do? Your third brother is gone like this-"

“My third son—”

Gu Fei couldn't stop the tears on her face. She walked to the bed and hugged her mother, also crying.
