Chapter 115: The change in the valley, Zhao Nizi was shocked

Dong Chenghu and Gu Mingde walked in the front, Zhao Shi and Gu Erniu walked in the last, after noon, the light in the mountains suddenly weakened, and even the heat was much lower, Dong Chenghu thought With two children by his side, he specially slowed down, but he was worried that he would be able to reach Cuizhu Mountain before dark.

Fortunately, after the tsunami, the large beasts nearby have not returned, and the degree of danger has been reduced a lot.

Several people walked for a long time, and came to the valley after the sun set in the west. When they reached the valley, the sky was full of stars, and the sun was gone, and the temperature dropped to a dozen degrees. When the wind blew up the mountain, the group shivered violently.

Dong Chenghu was completely relieved when he entered the valley. It has been more than a year since the Gu family came to Cuizhu Mountain last time. The shadow of the wall cannot be erased by night, Gu Mingde was amazed again and again.

"Chenghu, I remember that a family lived here before. It was an adobe house, but now it has become a Zhuangzi. It's amazing!" People are different. All this has had too much impact on them. They always thought that their family was good enough, but with this Zhuangzi, it seemed that they could not do anything at all.

The two children have good eyesight, and this is the first time they have seen such a big Zhuangzi. Their eyes are full of surprise and exploration. Listening to the adults, they do not say a word.

Dong Chenghu listened to Gu Mingde's words and explained with a smile: "Uncle Qin's family lived in the valley before, and then Qingsong's house collapsed, so he moved to the valley, and Uncle Qin raised two It is a house. Brother Qingsong built a house, and the two families bought some fields. There are many wild animals in this mountain. I was afraid that those animals would ruin the crops. They simply formed a partnership to surround a village. My eldest sister is going to marry Brother Qingsong. When the time comes, we will Come over for a wedding drink and you can see what's inside."

Gu Mingde was very envious when he heard it. Although their Caozi Village was poor, the land was purchased according to the field standard, which was much more expensive than the land in the mountains without wasteland reclamation. He always wanted to buy more There are some fields, but unfortunately there are only two laborers left in the family, he and Erniu. The family’s current fields are almost too short to grow. If they buy more fields, they will definitely hire people. Now their family is already the object of everyone’s jealousy in Caozi Village. Wouldn't he be drowned by the spittle Xingzi if he hired another person?

This is also one of the reasons why Gu Mingde hesitated to buy fields. In addition, the money earned by selling grain is not as good as Gu Daniu's wages. Gu Mingde simply stopped buying it. You can't let Daniel find a job for Er Niu. If you can go out and make a living, it's better than staying in Caozi Village.

The fields at home should be left to the two old people to toss around slowly.

Gu Mingde thought this, but he was very helpless. He followed Dong Chenghu step by step. After crossing the valley, he was about to cross the river. Now their tool for crossing the river has been changed from bamboo rafts to boats , This boat was made by Dong Chenghu and Zuo Qingsong together. It is not as good as that made by professional carpenters, but the quality is guaranteed.

"

After the group boarded the boat, Dong Chenghu lit the lantern on the bow mast. With the light of the lantern, the situation on the water surface was immediately clear. Dong Chenghu quickly rowed the oars to the other side of the river. go.

Cross the river and then pass through the woods to get there. The lantern on the boat was taken directly by Dong Chenghu and used to light the way.

When Dong Chenghu knocked on the door of Cuizhu Mountain, Dong Shan quickly welcomed everyone in.

The scenery inside the Cuizhu Mountain is very different from the outside, the path leading to the house is full of lanterns, all the lights are swaying, and the house in the distance is brightly lit. Thinking about how many candles these lanterns will use in one night, I can't figure it out at all, and I only feel distressed.

"How much do so many lanterns cost?" Zhao shi made no secret of her pain, as if she spent her family's money, and rambled: "Shuixiu is too good at palming. Home, money is not used like this, I have to talk about her well."

Gu Mingde squinted at Zhao, a few steps behind Dong Chenghu, and warned Zhao in a low voice: "This is not our family, even if the head of the family is your daughter, you are not qualified Don't worry, remember, don't talk nonsense to me, you don't know what's going on, don't be silly over there, didn't you see your son-in-law and didn't say anything?"

Zhao looked at Dong Chenghu who was unmoved in front of him, and shut his mouth obediently. But if you don't say it, your heart still hurts.

The two children have recovered from the shock just now. Seeing the style of Cuizhushan, the two children are more afraid to speak. All timid.

At the door of the house, Dong Chenghu knocked twice, Cuixi came out and opened the door, seeing Dong Chenghu, he immediately smiled and said: "Master is back, Madam has been reading for a day, still Wondering if something went wrong."

Gu Shuixiu came out after hearing the sound, and she was so sleepy that she didn't clean up.

When she entered the main room and saw the Gu family, she was completely awake, with a gentle smile on her face, she coquettishly said to Gu Mingde: "Father and mother, you are here, I have been looking forward to a day, I thought Did something go wrong on the way?"

Gu Mingde saw his daughter, who had grown a lot taller and was raised in a fair and tender manner, with kindness in his eyes, looked at her dotingly, and spoke in a tone like coaxing a child, "Dad this Isn't it here! Big girl, it's cold, go back to sleep, we'll have something to eat and then go to rest, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Zhao continued: "Hurry back to the house, even if you are old, you still look like a child."

Gu Shuixiu was helpless, originally wanted to sit with them, but now it seems that she is not very popular, Gu Shuixiu called Cuixi and ordered some things before turning back to the backyard.

After a while, there was a fragrant aroma from the kitchen, followed by a loud noise, Cuixi came over with a big pot to eat.

"My dear master, old lady, second master, this is the noodles that just came out of the pot. Eat them while they're still hot, and the servants will cook something else."

Cui Xi brought bowls and chopsticks to greet everyone for dinner.

It was the first time that Gu Erniu was called the second master, and he was very uncomfortable and felt very awkward. Gu Mingde was just as unaccustomed as Zhao, but fortunately, Cuixi called out and stopped calling.

The noodles are filled with fish, meat, eggs, as well as some fresh mushrooms and vegetables. The colors match very well. The crowd moved their index fingers.
