That afternoon, Grandma Gu went to see Grandma Xiao, and Grandpa Gu called the two Gu brothers to his study.
Grandpa Gu still had that same smiling face: "Bear with it, continue. Did that monk manage to save that mischievous monkey?"
Gu Ren blinked. His grandfather wanted to hear a story, but didn't even ask him if he really dreamed about it?
If the old man wants to hear it, he'll definitely have to tell him.
So, it took Gu Ren three days to finish telling the story of Journey to the West.
Grandpa Gu was still not satisfied!
He didn't ask about Gu Ren's dream, but told Gu Ren that next time he had a new story, he shouldn't just tell it to his brother, but also include this old man.
Gu Ren hugged Grandpa Gu and gave him a kiss. Yes, he liked this kind of open-minded old man.
Then the two brothers planned to go directly to Beiying to find Lu Zheng, but Grandpa Gu stopped them.
Grandpa Gu's idea was that Gu En could write, but only after completing the homework assigned by Gu Shouxin each day. Once five volumes were filled, they could be handed over to Lu Zheng for him to manage.
Gu Ren thought about it and realized, "That's right, the finished product hasn't even been released yet, why would anyone want to cooperate with you? Lu Zheng isn't free."
That's how the Gu brothers' money-making plan was decided.
The Gu sisters are also busy with their money-making plans!
Several public latrines in Kuncheng were completed in mid-February, and the latrines in the camp were also built.
Uncle Gu has been busy with spring plowing lately, but he also takes some time to visit those outhouses. Hmm, the fertilizer in the fields is pretty good today.
We had originally planned to go to that place with good weather in early February to check it out, but something came up and we had to wait another ten days.
It wasn't until February 19th that everyone had free time.
Uncle Gu and Lu Zheng led the way, with Bai Er and a few others following, along with Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, Grandma Xiao, and General Peng. The group traveled in two carriages towards the area south of Kuncheng.
Madam Peng really wanted to go, but Peng Mu had been unwell lately, and she was worried about him, so she couldn't go with him.
Uncle Gu and several other elderly people rode in a car together, looking out the window the whole way.
The further south you go, the higher the temperature gets.
From before dawn until late afternoon, they only stopped once along the way, and the rest of the time they traveled at a brisk pace.
General Peng stopped the carriage by a river: "Let's stop here. If we go any further down, the conditions will be similar. It's getting late, so we can camp here tonight."
The Gu sisters got out of the car and stretched comfortably.
Princess Jinghe exclaimed, "The scenery here is so beautiful! Look at those mountains over there, don't they look like a beautiful woman reclining leisurely?"
Gu Xin and Gu Si were still bending over to look.
Gu Xin: "It really is! There, it looks like a hair bun on the head, and at the back, it looks like the hem of a skirt. That part is shorter, and when you bend down to the side, it looks like the waist!"
Uncle Gu, however, didn't care about mountains or anything like that. He said impatiently, "Uncle Peng, you, tell me, what's wrong with your family's place! This place is obviously perfect for growing crops! I've seen it, the soil is quite good, look how well those flowers and plants are growing. With a little care, it would be perfect for crops!"
He saw the land was good and was complaining that the Peng family didn't know how to manage it.
General Peng laughed and said, "My fourth daughter-in-law was thinking that we had already arranged for someone to come with her, but she got pregnant again, and then Xiao Liu was not feeling well, so it was delayed! She's the only one in our family who knows a thing or two."
Madam Peng was a girl from a small village near Kuncheng in Cizhou Prefecture. Her father was a scholar, but her family also farmed their own land.
