When Gu Jinan and Gu Jinbang came back, they had changed into coarse linen clothes.
After they went out, they went to look for work. It happened that the dock was recruiting people to transport rice, so the two brothers went there. However, when they saw that they were wearing brocade clothes, they drove them away.
The two brothers decided to go to the pawnshop to pawn their clothes.
Fortunately, although the Shangshu Mansion did not give them money, for the sake of face, they made clothes for them with good materials. This time, after pawning the clothes, they actually got fifty taels.
Just after they pawned their clothes, Gu Jinding found them. When he heard that they wanted to pawn their clothes for money, he immediately took off his clothes and went to the pawnshop. The three brothers came out of the pawnshop with an extra 25 taels.
Together with the money they had left, the total amount was one hundred and five taels.
"Mom, this money is enough for us to get to Xiangxi, don't worry."
Wang Yanran also thought that her sons would not be treated unfairly in her hometown in Xiangxi, and she was indeed relieved.
After resting for a night in the inn, they set out on their journey to Xiangxi.
The carriage entered a forest and suddenly there was a noise.
"Quick, go get a doctor!"
The lady nervously held the child in her arms and shouted, but the child's face turned purple and he had no response.
The maids and servants were busy as hell, but they didn't know how to deal with the situation.
"Get out of the way, I have a way to save him!"
At this moment, Gu Jinguo pushed through the crowd, rushed to his wife, snatched the child away, hugged him from the back, clenched his fists, and pushed back hard several times. The child opened his mouth and spit out a candied haws.
The guards beside him finally came to their senses and tried to pull Gu Jinguo away.
“Wow!”
At this time, the child burst into tears, and the woman cried for joy.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay!"
Wang Yanran was frightened by her fourth son's behavior and broke out in a cold sweat. She anxiously got off the carriage and begged the lady to let her son go.
"Madam, please spare me. My son didn't mean it."
Gu Jinan, Gu Jinbang, and Gu Jinding were all frightened by their own silly brother.
Isn't the fourth brother usually the most honest? Why is he so fierce today? This young master looks precious. If something goes wrong, it will be a life-threatening matter.
"Madam, please let my fourth brother go!"
They were all prepared to take the blame for the fourth brother.
"Oh, sister, your son saved my son. I can't express my gratitude enough. How can I blame you?"
After comforting her son, the lady immediately helped Wang Yanran up and said while wiping her tears.
"My son was hard-earned. He is my lifeblood. If it weren't for your son, I'm afraid I would have lost him."
She had injured her body in her early years and had been unable to conceive. She gave birth to a son when she was over 30 years old. From then on, she had no chance of getting pregnant again, so she regarded her only son as her life.
"Grateful?"
Wang Yanran has been scared by Shen Yunyun over the years and is very wary of all noble ladies.
Now seeing that the noble lady not only did not blame them but was grateful to them, he widened his eyes in shock.
"No, no need. As long as you are fine, that's all."
After saying that, she quickly called her sons to get in the car: "Hurry, let's go."
Seeing their mother so frightened, the four brothers felt uncomfortable.
The carriage had gone a long way before Gu Jinguo remembered the reward his sister had mentioned.
"Go back, go back, they give you money!"
Gu Jinan, Gu Jinbang, and Gu Jinding all looked at their fourth brother.
"So you rushed in so fast just now because you thought they were rich, so you rushed to save them?"
"But how do you know how to save people?"
Facing the questioning looks of his three brothers, Gu Jinguo smiled foolishly.
"My sister said so."
So, everyone, including Wang Yanran, looked at the baby sleeping soundly in the cradle, blowing bubbles.
"Sister, you are so predictable!"
Gu Jinding's eyes lit up as he looked at his sister. His sister was a fairy.
Gu Fengxi boasted so much, but in the end, he, as her brother, got nothing. Not to mention him, even her own mother, Shen Yunyun, was not protected, right? Otherwise, how could he be struck by lightning?
Humph, that scumbag dad treats that guy as a treasure, but treats the real lucky star as grass. He will regret it sooner or later.
"Yeah, Fubao is so great!"
Little Fubao seemed to have heard his brother's praise. He spoke out his heart in a half-asleep state with a toothless smile that made people feel so soft-hearted that they wanted to melt into water.
It’s just that the premature little Fubao is so thin that it makes people feel sad.
"Fubao, be good. Let's keep our abilities to ourselves for now. You're still young, so drink your milk and sleep well."
Gu Jinan took out the warm milk and fed the baby while speaking.
"When we get to Xiangxi, I'll buy you a dairy sheep. Then you'll have goat milk to drink every day."
When he was buying milk, he asked and was told that goat's milk was better for children.
Fubao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Goat's milk, goat's milk, goat's milk..."
Wang Yanran and her brothers couldn't help laughing. It seemed that everything had changed with the arrival of a younger sister.
Dusk fell in the west, and the carriage still needed half a day's ride to the next city.
"Mother, the weather is good tonight. Why don't we spend the night in the woods and continue our journey tomorrow?"
Considering Wang Yanran's health, the brothers didn't dare to rush too much.
"good."
Wang Yanran was in poor health. Even though she had recovered a little, she was still pale, thin, and without a trace of blood.
"Mom, I'm going to go for a walk in the woods and see if I can catch any pheasants."
Gu Jinan stood up, and Gu Jinbang followed suit.
"I'm going too!"
Wang Yanran frowned: "It's getting dark, and the forest is dangerous, so it's better not to go."
