Chapter 119: Become a Disciple
Niu Niu didn’t know when she fell asleep. The only thing she remembered was the dim candlelight in the clinic and the tearful face of the little nerd as he slept.
When she woke up, it was already bright outside and her yard was still filled with the rich aroma of braised food.
Her parents had already gotten up, but she didn't call them and put on her clothes by herself.
I slid off the bed and just walked into the yard, I heard the sound of "Hoo-hu-ha-ha".
Niu Niu couldn't help rubbing her eyes, looking at the back of the man in the constable's uniform not far away with confusion.
The man held a big knife in his hand and waved it fiercely without any rules. When he turned around, he saw Niuniu with disheveled hair and sleepy eyes.
"Grandma, Niuniu, wake up!" Gu Yun shouted into the house.
Mrs. Gu ran out immediately, took Niuniu's hand, and explained, "Your mother went to the shop early in the morning. I'll make you a bowl of frangipani to fill your stomach, and I'll comb your hair later."
Niu Niu obediently followed Grandma Gu to the kitchen.
Old Lady Gu turned around and scolded Gu Yun again, "You're going to be out soon. You're snoring so early in the morning. What will you do if you sweat all over?"
Gu Yun smiled innocently and touched the back of his head.
Gu Zhao rushed out from the corner: "Big sword! I want to play with the big sword too! Big brother, let me play with it, let me play with it!"
Gu Yun quickly put his sword back into its sheath.
"Children can't play with this. I'll get you a wooden knife later." Gu Yun said casually.
Gu Zhao said, "I want to play for real. Only children play with wooden swords."
Gu Yun reached out and tapped Gu Zhao's forehead lightly, and said proudly: "You have to be as old as me to not be a child."
Gu Zhao turned his head away angrily and said, "You are a bully. I won't play with you anymore."
Gu Mingda saw that the time was almost up, so he walked out of the room, waved at Gu Yun, and said, "Pack up, I'll take you to the government office."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yun immediately said, "Second Uncle, I know the way to the government office. I can go there by myself. I can't delay your studies."
Gu Mingda said: "Silly child, it's not as simple as you think."
While Gu Yun went into the house to sort out his clothes, Gu Mingda rushed into the kitchen again.
When Niuniu saw him, she immediately put down her bowl and asked in a baby voice, "Dad, did you help those two kids find their families yesterday?"
Gu Mingda nodded slightly.
Niuniu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Daddy is so awesome!"
Gu Mingda coughed lightly and said modestly: "It was just a coincidence. His family was waiting in the government office and looking for him everywhere."
Niuniu didn't care about that and said, "Daddy is really awesome. If he hadn't thrown a bag of rice over there, that bad guy might have gotten away!"
Gu Mingda was still trying to refuse, but in fact, his mouth was almost bent to his ears as he listened to the little girl's continuous praises.
"Niuniu is really good and has very sharp ears, otherwise we would have just walked past and not noticed the cripple at all." Gu Mingda said with a smile.
Niuniu shook her head vigorously: "Niuniu doesn't dare to save people, Niuniu is not powerful."
When Gu Mingda heard this, he shuddered and said, "A child like Guaibao who tells his parents immediately when something goes wrong is already a very, very powerful child."
Niuniu tilted her head, still a little disappointed, and said, "I didn't beat up any bad guys."
Gu Mingda added: "You have to eat well so that you can grow taller. When you grow taller than your father, you will be able to beat the bad guys. Then Niuniu will definitely dare to take the initiative to save people, and the bad guys will be scared and run away when they see you."
Niuniu's eyes lit up with fighting spirit instantly. She clenched her fists and said, "I must eat well and work hard to grow taller."
Gu Mingda's face was full of encouragement, and he didn't even mention that it was almost impossible for an ordinary girl to grow as tall as him.
Gu Mingda hopes that his daughter is kind-hearted, but he also doesn't want her to rush out to save people without being sure.
Seeing that Gu Yun had already packed up and was peeking out of the kitchen door, Gu Mingda patted his little girl on the forehead and asked, "What do you want to eat? Daddy will bring it back for you."
Niuniu shook her head: "There are so many delicious foods at home, no need to buy more, save the money to buy books for Dad."
Looking at his daughter's soft and well-behaved appearance, the old father's heart almost melted.
In comparison, Gu Zhao was not polite at all.
"Dad, I want to eat candied haws. Bring me a candy man. I also want to eat sesame balls..."
Hearing his youngest son talking as if he was reading out the names of dishes, Gu Mingda's face was immediately filled with black lines on his forehead.
"You have bad teeth, so you can't eat sweets. You can only choose one!"
Gu Zhao was like a cabbage that had been drained of water. He said, "Then let's have sesame balls... No, water chestnut cakes... No... Ahhh, I want to eat both!"
Gu Mingda walked out and said, "Since you haven't made up your mind, I won't buy anything."
"Water chestnut cake! I want to eat water chestnut cake!" Gu Zhao shouted miserably behind him.
The yamen is quite quiet today.
Constable Chen had two huge dark circles under his eyes. He said to Gu Mingda, "Lord Wu interrogated the kidnapper all night yesterday. Under the severe torture, the kidnapper confessed everything. But now his last breath is about to be released."
There is a lot of information in these words. The kidnapper was caught red-handed, so there is no need for him to resist confessing. It is unclear whether this torture was to force a confession or to take advantage of the situation.
But no matter what, the power behind these two children is obviously not to be underestimated.
"I wonder which family in the county these two children belong to?" Gu Mingda asked directly.
Captain Chen lowered his voice and whispered a word in his ear.
Gu Mingda was shocked when he heard this and said, "I didn't know these two kids were so famous."
Although Captain Chen was exhausted, he was still in a good mood. He said, "Fortunately, the two young masters are not lost. If they were, our county would have a lot of trouble again."
Gu Yun was listening in confusion, and later realized that he seemed to have done something extraordinary last night.
"Brother Gu, our eldest nephew looks really smart in this outfit. He is much more pleasing to the eye than us old guys." Captain Chen praised.
Gu Mingda waved his hands and said, "He is just a kid, a half-grown boy, how can he compare to you seniors? I was already worried about the chaos last night, but he just rushed forward."
Captain Chen laughed and said, "We are all thanks to the young boy's impulsiveness. The county magistrate has already ordered that when Gu Yun comes, he wants to meet the young hero in person."
Gu Yun was so overwhelmed by the praise that Gu Mingda slapped him hard on the face.
"What kind of young hero is he? If I talk too much, I'm afraid he will get cocky. Brother Chen, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but this kid has a hot temper and needs a master to tame his temper. I want him to be your disciple, but I'm afraid you'll think he's dull."
After Gu Mingda finished speaking, he gently kicked Gu Yun again.
Gu Yun knelt down on the spot: "Master, please accept my disciple's greetings."
