Gu Shuixiu stared at the new clothes on the bed. This was the first new clothes she saw after coming to Caozi Village. Wear bright green burlap pants, there is no beauty at all.
Every family in Caozi Village dresses like this when they get married, and no one seems to think it is inappropriate.
Zhao pushed open Gu Shuixiu's door, looked at Gu Shuixiu who was not happy at all, and said with a heart: "Da Ya, hurry up and put on your clothes, mother will comb your hair, and Dong Chenghu will wait for a while. I'm coming to pick up the relatives, but don't delay, or it will be dangerous if you can't reach Dong's house before dark."
The Dong family is in the deep mountains. As soon as the sky gets dark, the beasts come out to forage. Thinking about it makes you afraid.
The movements of Zhao's hands became a lot more swift, and Gu Shuixiu quickly woke up from her thoughts.
"Da Ya, don't blame your parents, our family is like this, and your parents don't have the ability to let you marry a wealthy family, but this Dong Chenghu's temperament is not bad, it will hurt to look at People, live a good life, and live your life is serious."
While combing Gu Shuixiu's hair, Mrs. Zhao taught Gu Shuixiu's hair in a persuasive manner. This was the first time Mrs. Zhao said so many meaningful words to Gu Shuixiu.
Gu Shuixiu lowered her eyes, listened carefully to Zhao's teachings, and remembered every word that Zhao said. If she wants to live in this world, she must obey the laws of this world.
When Gu Shuixiu was ready, Gu Daniu entered Gu Shuixiu's room with red eyes.
He said in a hoarse voice: "Mother, eldest sister, Dong Chenghu is here, and Dad asked me to carry you out."
After Gu Daniu put Gu Shuixiu on his back, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Eldest sister, if you can't live in Dong's house, come back, my brother will support you for the rest of your life."
The Zhao Shi, who had been pretending to be strong, finally couldn't bear it any longer, covering her mouth and crying.
Gu Shuixiu was lying on Gu Daniu's back. For the first time, she felt that this boy could actually rely on her. Her heart was warm, and she held back her tears. He said in his ear: "In the future, when the eldest sister is not at home, you will be the backbone of our family. In the future, you will be more stable and take care of your mother. If I have time, I will come back to see you."
In such a sad atmosphere, Gu Shuixiu was switched to another back.
This man is obviously stronger and taller than Gu Daniu. Once on his back, Gu Shuixiu feels that he has risen several heights.
"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will take Shuixiu back first. If I have time, I will bring Shuixiu back to visit you." Dong Chenghu saluted Gu Mingde and Zhao, and took Gu Shuixiu out After leaving the Gu family, he walked up the mountain.
Gu's family is extremely reluctant, but she can't say what she wants to keep.
On the day of Gu Shuixiu's marriage, except for a few close relatives who came to congratulate him and sent some eggs and vegetables, no one came again.
Even Gu Zhuzhu never appeared.
These things can also be exchanged for three taels of silver when they are sent to Panlong Town. I think that the one Dong Chenghu gave to Gu Laifu's family was only a wild boar, and it was not as big as the one from Gu Mingde's family.
When Gu Laifu and Huang Shi heard the news, they secretly scolded Dong Chenghu for not knowing how to praise him, but Father Gu said nothing and sighed in his heart. Dong Chenghu seemed to have a lot of opinions on their family. It's just that things have come to this point, and it's useless to say more.
On Dong Chenghu's back, Gu Shuixiu could only see the weeds and loess on the ground. It was already over Dong Chenghu's knees.
Looking at the bottomless grass, Gu Shuixiu thought, what if a snake suddenly appeared?
As soon as this thought came out, Gu Shuixiu began to worry uncontrollably, and began to move restlessly on Dong Chenghu's back.
Dong Chenghu noticed that the person on his back was different, and asked suspiciously: "Is the lady uncomfortable? Or am I making you uncomfortable? Do you want to come down and walk?"
Gu Shuixiu hurriedly shook her head desperately, hugging Dong Chenghu's neck unconsciously, jokingly, if she was put down here, she would not be buried by grass! She is still upright, and it is better to die than to live, and she does not want to ruin herself here.
Dong Chenghu was amused by Gu Shuixiu's reaction, looking at the slender and white hands around his neck, a touch of warmth flashed in Dong Chenghu's eyes, and he spoke more.
"You don't have to be afraid, although there are many snakes, worms, ants and ants in this mountain, but we all apply medicine, usually those things will take the initiative to bypass the smell and will not attack us ."
Gu Shuixiu heaved a deep sigh of relief, and then asked, "Well, can I take the hood off my head, so I can only see the ground when it's been covered, a little bit. Dizzy."
Dong Chenghu heard the words, quickly put Gu Shuixiu down, and took off the cover for her in person, but he didn't expect to see a beautiful little beauty.
Dong Chenghu blushed and stammered: "Well, I'll take off the hood for you now, you'll feel more comfortable, let's go on our way."
Before Gu Shuixiu could answer, Dong Chenghu had already carried Gu Shuixiu on his back.
Being bored, Gu Shuixiu asked, "How long have we been gone? How long will it take to get home?"
"We have just climbed over a mountain, and we have to climb over those two mountains, and then pass through a valley. Inside the valley is our neighbor, surnamed Qin, but the Qin family is now estimated to be all We went out to hunt, and we couldn't meet. We had to cross a river beyond the valley, and there was a boat there. I would row. When we got to the other side of the river, we had to climb over a mountain, and then go forward through a small forest to our house. already."
Gu Shuixiu was stunned when she heard this, and it took a while to react, "Are you going to carry me home?"
However, Dong Chenghu nodded solemnly, and he was not surprised at all, "I used to carry hundreds of pounds of prey over the mountains and mountains to the town, and you only have less than a hundred pounds, or It's too light, so I'll have to make up more in the future, it's so light that it blows away when the wind blows."
Gu Shuixiu: "I..."
Compare her to the prey and say she is light, should she be happy?
Gu Shuixiu didn't want to continue this topic, since Dong Chenghu said she was light, then she would let him carry it home with peace of mind.
"By the way, what's with the beard on your face? Was it deliberate?"
The beard on Dong Chenghu's face almost covered half of his face.
Dong Chenghu was silent for a long time before saying: "No one has mentioned this to me since my father passed away. I am used to it and don't care, and slowly I grew up like this. If you don't tell me now that I'm not aware of the problem, I'll shave those beards when I get back."
