Chapter 305: ,goodbye

Chapter 305, goodbye

Peach Blossom Village.

Grandmother Gu stood on the Peach Blossom Mountain, quietly watching the people below who were reclaiming wasteland one after another. Seeing her brother coming over with a steaming medicine bowl, she took the medicine bowl without changing his face and drank it.

"Sister, this is the candied fruit I bought in the county seat. Just put it in your mouth and let it taste bitter." Gu Jian reached out and handed a bag of candied fruit to Granny Gu.

Grandma Gu shook her head: "After drinking the medicine for so many years, I am numb to the bitter taste a long time ago, so I don’t need to eat any preserves."

Hearing this, Gu Jian's expression turned dark, and silently collected the preserved fruit.

The old mother-in-law turned her gaze to the foot of the mountain again: "It has been a few months since I moved here, and I have only seen some popularity in these two days. By the way, has anyone heard of who bought the land under the mountain?"

Thinking of the news he heard from the village chief, the corners of Gu Jian's mouth rose a little stiffly.

The old mother-in-law saw it, and felt puzzled.

Brother, is this smiling?

Do they know the people who bought the land? And it's quite popular with my younger brother?

Gu Jian has always looked at people sternly. Since escaping from the fire and ascending into heaven, he hasn't smiled anymore. He maintained an expression for a long time. The corners of his mouth suddenly rose, making the smile on his face look a little bit ferocious.

Seeing the distressed look in his sister's eyes, Gu Jian immediately pressed down the corners of his mouth, and then returned to his usual indifference: "My sister who bought the land knew him, she was the girl who asked for medicine back then."

Hearing this, the old woman's eyes widened immediately: "Daohua?!"

Gu Jian nodded: "That girl's father was promoted to prefect of Ningmen Mansion, and the whole family followed."

Old mother-in-law also showed a rare smile on her face: "Speaking of which, we have a real relationship with this girl. If we hadn't met her last time, we two would have become drowned."

Speaking, paused.

"I also saw Xiao Jiu's son because of her."

Thinking of Xiao Yeyang's appearance, grandmother Gu's eyes flashed with scorching light: ". It makes up for a little regret in my heart."

Gu Jian looked at her sister distressedly, trying to soothe the pain in her eyes, but knew that she could do nothing.

Sister and brother stood silently, falling into a brief silence.

At this time, under the mountain, a little girl in a green dress appeared in the sight of the two.

Seeing that Qin Xiaoliu had recruited hundreds of young men to reclaim the wasteland so quickly, Daohua's face showed satisfaction.

"Brother Xiao Liu, this is the Zhuangzi pattern I drew. The greenhouses, granaries, flower yards, cow sheds, chicken sheds, duck sheds, goose sheds, sheep sheds that need to be built are all marked. Master, look, if the picture is okay, then build the Zhuangzi according to my picture."

"By the way, in addition to Zhuangzi, we will build some small-family farmyards for tenants to live in. We provide housing, so there is no need to worry about finding tenants."

It is true that Shahe County is too poor. In the past few days, she has also learned about it, but the refugees don’t want to stay in Shahe County.

Taohua took the floor plan of Zhuangzi and explained it carefully to Qin Xiaoliu. After almost half an hour, he confirmed that he understood her meaning and thoughts before letting him leave.

Seeing that Qin Xiaoliu took the blueprint to look for the person who built the house, Daohua looked up at Taohua Mountain.

Only two or three days, the buds of the peach trees on the mountain are more and bigger.

"Go, let's go up and take a look."

Daohua asked Wang Man'er to take the visiting ceremony that he had prepared early in the morning, and then walked towards the mountain.

Although Taohua Mountain occupies a large area, it is not particularly high. It is less than 100 meters from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. However, because there is no road, Daohua and Wang Man'er did not reach the top of the mountain after climbing for almost half an hour.

"How long has it been since this mountain has been visited? There is not even a road." Daohua stood on the top of the mountain, panting and staring at the thatched courtyard not far away.

Wang Man'er replied: "I heard that the peach trees on this mountain produce astringent and sour fruits, and the surrounding villagers don't like to eat them. Except for greedy children who come to pick a few, almost no adults go up the mountain. So, Naturally there is no way."

After breathing for a while, Daohua patted her dress, and then led Wang Man'er towards the only thatched courtyard on the top of the mountain.

"Peach Blossom Temple!"

Seeing the plaque hanging on the thatched courtyard door, Daohua smiled immediately.

The monk has a weird temper, but one thing is very similar to Xiao Yeyang, that is, he loves the poor and pays attention to it.

"Old mother-in-law?"

Ina Flower stood outside the courtyard, craned her neck to look in, and screamed tentatively.

Did not hear the answer, Daohua cried again: "Guaihe" It is not polite to think of calling the strange monk, Daohua immediately changed her mouth: "Weird master?"

Still no one answered.

Wang Man'er: "Girl, we're afraid that it's not a coincidence, no one is at home."

Ina Flower pointed to the steaming teapot in the courtyard: “There must be someone, the fire in the stove is still burning.” After speaking, she was puzzled, “Is it because I got it wrong? Isn’t it the old grandmother and the strange master?”

At this moment, there was a ‘cough’ in the house: "The gate is not closed. Come in by yourself."

Daohua's eyes lit up, and she gently pushed the courtyard door more than one meter high in front of her with her hand. The courtyard door opened with a creak, and then walked in gently.

Behind, Wang Man'er saw her girl acting like a thief, and she was a little speechless.

As soon as the two of them walked into the courtyard, Gu Jian walked out of the hall without expression.

"Master Weird, I'm Daohua!"

Instinctively, Daohua raised her paw and waved hello to Gu Jian.

Gu Jian twitched the corners of his mouth: "I am not blind." He was silent for a moment, "Come in." Then he turned directly into the house.

Daohua wiped the sweat that didn't exist between her forehead, and muttered: "It's getting scarier and scarier."

"Not coming in yet!"

Gu Jian’s voice came out again, and Daohua immediately slapped wit, and quickly said: "Come in, come in." Then he ran in with his skirt.

Wang Maner: "."

"Old mother-in-law!"

Looking at the old mother-in-law sitting in the room, Daohua immediately smiled and went forward to salute. After she got up, she smiled and said, "I didn't expect it to be you!"

Granny Gu smiled and looked at the hearty little girl in front of her, and asked softly: "How do you know we live here?"

Ina Flower: "Last time I came to buy land, I saw Master Wei on the boat. I greeted him, but he didn't seem to hear it."

Gu Jian glanced at Daohua, looked at Granny Gu and said, “I said, why did I hear someone calling me last time? I thought it was an auditory hallucination.”

Daohua curiously said: "Old mother-in-law, why are you here?"

Granny Gu smiled and said gently, "Because this is our hometown, when people get old, they always have to return to their roots. If you don’t, I’ll be back."

Daohua was taken aback: "Old mother-in-law, are you from Taohua Village?"

Granny Gu nodded: "A Jian and I were both born here, but we left here after we were born."

The words fell, and the old mother-in-law started to cough violently.

Seeing this, Gu Jian stood up anxiously, and walked to the side of Granny Gu in three steps and two steps to help her pat her back.

Looking at Granny Gu’s coughing heartbreaking, Daohua walked up worriedly: "Isn’t Granny Gu’s illness all right?"

Gu Jian pressed his lips tightly and did not speak.

Granny Gu coughed for a while, and she got better. She raised her hand and shook it to signal Gu Jian to stop taking pictures: "I have been with me for decades, and it won’t be better."

Inahua said worriedly: "It's the master's so high medical skill that can't be cured?"

Granny Gu smiled bitterly: "My cough came down when I was caught in a sea of ​​flames, and my lungs were damaged by thick smoke. It cannot be cured by humans."

Daohua moved her lips and blurted out to ask them why they were caught in the fire. Later, she felt bad. She turned her tongue and said, "Grandma, I have pickled Sydney there. I will come back in a few days. Bring you a jar, and then let the master stranger cook you a pear stew with rock sugar and honey. This will relieve your cough."

Granny Gu smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I have also tried Sydney stew with rock sugar and honey, but it has no effect, so don't waste anything."

Daohua hurriedly said: "Try it, even if you can't relieve your cough, you can eat it as dessert."

Feeling the concern in Daohua's eyes, Granny Gu smiled and nodded, not deciding her kindness.

Daohua said again: "Old mother-in-law, do you remember my grandmother?"

Granny Gu nodded: "Of course, remember, your grandmother is a kind person and a blessed person."

Daohua smiled and said: "After I have built Zhuangzi, I will bring my grandmother over to stay for a while, and then you two can chat together."

Hearing this, Gu Jian's eyes lit up.

When I was in the temple, people would come to chat with my sister from time to time, but since leaving the temple, my sister has been alone with him.

It happened that he was taciturn again.

The old mother-in-law smiled immediately: "Okay, I miss your grandmother a lot. That's a very talkative old man."
