Chapter 165 166. Gu Lejia
Looking at the relatively strong Gu Lejia, and seeing that there was another batch of goods that needed help, Chen Dagui nodded in agreement.
It’s a pity that they were heading north and then took water transportation, so Gu Lejia was completely lost from his family.
“Haven’t you heard about the resettlement of refugees?”
Gu Lejia hesitated, "I've heard everything, but what can I do if I go back? I heard that the drought there hasn't been solved yet, and going back will only lead to death."
It was also for this reason that when Gu Lejia heard that he would be sent back to his hometown, he simply gritted his teeth and followed Boss Chen south. Although he now has no household registration, under Boss Chen's protection, his life is many times better than before.
Even now that he knows that his family has found another village nearby to settle down, he does not regret his decision.
Before I came out, I didn’t know that the world outside was so vast.
Jin Qianqian didn't know what he was thinking. "What are you thinking now? It happens that the escort team of the escort agency will return to Daocheng in a few days. If you want to go back, we will help you arrange it then."
Gu Lejia thought for a moment and made a decision, "Aunt Qi, I don't want to go back yet. You see, I am working here and getting paid, but if I go back, I will still have to deal with those few acres of land. I want to try my luck here."
"Then you should go home as well. When your seventh uncle comes back tonight, you can explain it to him." Jin Qianqian looked at the shops outside and asked, "Do you need to ask for leave first?"
Gu Lejia only thought of a question at this time, "Aunt Qi, why are you here?"
And judging from her attire, she must have some wealth to be able to come to this jewelry store.
Jin Qianqian told him that Gu Wenheng passed the exam and came here to study, "Your seventh uncle has now entered the academy to study."
Gu Lejia's face lit up with joy, "Really? That's a big happy event for our family. I didn't expect my seventh uncle to be so capable. I have to go to his house to congratulate him."
Jin Qianqian asked a few more brief questions and found out that there was no rush for these things. She said hello to Chen Shaodong and the others, and no longer had the mood to choose jewelry. She took Liu Xiaohua and went home first.
It was already getting dark. Jin Qianqian stood at the door, looking around anxiously. Only when she saw a familiar figure appear at the intersection did her face relax.
"Why so late?"
Gu Wenheng could see the worry in her eyes. "I was delayed for a while because of something. You can just wait in the house from now on. Although the temperature here is not that low, it is still a bit cold in the morning and evening. Don't catch a cold."
Thinking of those fellow disciples who supported each other as they went back home, Gu Wenheng wondered if they would be able to get up so early tomorrow morning.
It was also because he stopped to wait for them, otherwise with his and Deng Yuanhang's physical strength, they should have returned home early.
Jin Qianqian, "Isn't this academy not far away? If we have to get home so late every day, why don't we pick a donkey cart tomorrow?"
Seeing that she had misunderstood, Gu Wenheng explained the location of Yingshan Academy, "Although there is a road that can take donkey carts directly to the academy, my senior brothers and sisters have inquired before, and they found that except for a few elderly gentlemen, other cars and sedan chairs are not allowed to pass on that road.
Don't worry! Senior Brother Deng and I also stopped and walked to accommodate them. "
This is only the first day to accommodate everyone. The travel time will be different in the future, and it is impossible to wait like this.
Jin Qianqian looked at Gu Wenheng sympathetically, "It seems that Mr. Wang had already anticipated the current situation. Along the way, apart from answering some questions about articles, he didn't mention the academy at all. It turns out that he was waiting here.
I think you must have had a wonderful day today, but now is not the time to discuss these things. Hurry up and wash up first. You must be hungry, right? "
Gu Wenheng stroked his abdomen with a pitiful look on his face, "My wife is really considerate of me. I haven't eaten a big pot of rice for many years, and it was a big pot of rice with clear soup. The taste was really..."
You know, when I was in school, although it was a big pot, it was also varied and there were many choices.
The big pot rice in this academy is really just stewed in a big pot. Apart from the taste of salt, there is really no taste.
Even if he was not a picky eater, he wouldn't have much appetite when he saw such food.
Moreover, the food without oil or water could not satisfy his hunger at all, and coupled with such a large amount of exercise, his stomach had already protested.
"Then hurry up. Mrs. Huang went to the market today and bought some duck and abalone. I put them together and made a pot of soup. It's just right for you to nourish your body."
As soon as Jin Qianqian mentioned the soup, Gu Wenheng felt that the fragrance in the air made him even more greedy, and his hands and feet became faster.
&
Just as they put down their bowls and chopsticks, Gu Lejia and Chen Dongjia arrived.
Seeing Gu Wenheng's surprised expression, Jin Qianqian briefly explained what she had not had time to say.
As soon as I entered Gu Le's house, my eyes were busy. It seemed that this seventh uncle lived a very good life and even employed servants at home.
"Seventh Uncle, I finally see my relatives." Gu Lejia rushed over and hugged Gu Wenheng, tears streaming down her face.
Jin Qianqian: "..." So the me you saw before was not a relative?
Gu Wenheng patted him on the back and said, "I'm glad you found him. Your parents missed you too. Now they can feel more at ease knowing that you are safe."
Gu Wenheng nodded to Chen Dongjia who was following behind him, "There are guests here, why don't you introduce them to your uncle?"
Gu Lejia wiped away her tears and said, "I was just excited at the moment. Uncle Qi, this is my savior and my current boss."
Chen Dongjia smiled and clasped his fists towards Gu Wenheng, "I can't say that you are my savior, I just met you on the road and gave you a drink. My last name is Chen, so you can just call me Chen Dagui."
"How dare I, Mr. Chen? Please come in quickly. Our nephew has been taken care of by you for such a long time, and it is normal for me to be the one to visit him." Gu Wenheng led the people to the reception room. As soon as they sat down, Mrs. Huang and Liu Xiaohua brought up tea.
“When I heard about the Le family’s experience, I felt very sympathetic.
But at that time, I was in a hurry to deliver the goods and there was no way to help him find his family. It happened that I was short of manpower, so I took him away.
But don't worry, although he doesn't have a household registration, he is still free."
Chen Dagui made this trip because he wanted to explain things clearly. Although a scholar would not scare him, these people were often related to people they could not afford to mess with.
Gu Wenheng stood up and bowed deeply to Chen Dagui. "Gu is here to thank Mr. Chen for his kindness on behalf of my elder brother. However, the child's registered permanent residence is still in his hometown, so he can't always be out and about. I hope Mr. Chen can understand."
Please friends who pass by, help me vote. Although my writing is not very good, I hope to get some encouragement!
