Chapter 751753. Homecoming
As soon as Gu Yuanjin arrived at the city gate, he found that it was very lively there. A long team of escorts was stopping outside the city gate for rest.
"It's already this hour, and there's still a convoy heading this way." Gu Yuanjin squinted his eyes and didn't see the convoy's flag clearly. He turned around and asked his attendant, "Which escort agency is this? They're still here on New Year's Day."
The attendant had better eyesight than him, "Sir, this is the escort team under Madam Seven."
"The people under Seventh Brother's wife are always more diligent. Manager Hu must have been delayed because of these things." Gu Yuanjin looked at them carefully and asked the coachman to carefully go around and enter the city.
All the way to the ancient mansion, he saw several carriages parked at the door. Gu Yuanjin knew that they were visitors.
As soon as the car stopped, the doorman ran over and helped Gu Yuanjin get out of the car.
"Uncle, why are you here?"
"I just happened to be in town, so I came to see if Manager Hu is still busy."
"We have guests coming today, and Manager Hu is still entertaining them.
Sir, please go inside. I have just asked someone to notify Manager Hu."
Gu Yuanjin had just stepped into the gate when he suddenly froze in place.
He blinked hard until the other person called out "Dad," which made his heart tremble.
"Le Tian?" Gu Yuanjin looked at the familiar face, somewhat unbelieving.
"Dad," Gu Letian ran a few steps quickly to Gu Yuanjin. He really didn't expect that he had just arrived at the place and met the manager of Aunt Qi's family. He was about to ask him to take him to find his home, but this surprise came so suddenly that his father appeared in front of him.
Gu Yuanjin rubbed his eyes vigorously, and once again confirmed that the person in front of him was his eldest son. He suddenly hugged him in his arms and shouted, "Where have you been all these years? The family is almost going crazy looking for you."
Gu Letian hugged his father back and tried to hold back his tears, "I finally found my home..."
The father and son released their hands at the same time, confirmed the person in front of them, and stared at each other excitedly.
Seeing them standing in the front yard facing each other, Hu Dong could only dryly cough twice to remind them, "It's a bit cold outside, why don't you take a rest in the side hall first?"
When Hu Dong first saw Gu Letian, he didn't recognize him. If it weren't for his wife's handwriting, he would have been a little suspicious.
Over the years, they have also helped to search for Master Lotte, and have encountered many impersonations in the process.
"No, since the child is back, let's go back and see the elders." Gu Yuanjin held Gu Letian's hand tightly. He wanted to share this great news with his family as soon as possible and also wanted to make the old lady at home happy.
In this way, their whole family is complete, and they will definitely have an extra comfortable New Year.
Hu Dong could understand his thoughts. "Then let's go back to the village together. I happened to have prepared some New Year's goods here, which I should have sent over earlier, but I've been busy these days. I'll go and wish the old lady and the old man a happy new year."
"Okay, let's go back together." Gu Yuanjin was eager to go home, so he walked out with his people.
Gu Letian also hurried to follow. He was now full of curiosity about his new home and was eager to see his family.
Hu Dong followed behind, but the ancient father and son were already ahead of him and disappeared in an instant.
Hu Dong smiled and shook his head, then quickly ordered the coachman to follow along with the several carriages that Gu Letian had brought back.
Li Cuicui and the others were preparing for tonight's New Year's Eve dinner together. They were sitting in the yard, basking in the sun and chatting and laughing.
"The weather is pretty good this year. It looks like we can have a good, dry new year." Xie Ruyi stood aside holding her grandson. She was afraid that the child would make trouble, so she was coaxing him with a toy.
"That's right, it's much more comfortable than the hazy drizzle we had the past two days.
Tomorrow when we go out to pay New Year's greetings, we won't come back covered in mud." Hong Daya also held her own Lebao in her arms. Anyway, she brought her mother-in-law with her today, and with her mother-in-law helping her with things, she only had to take good care of her precious daughter.
"You two shouldn't hold the children in your arms all the time," Li Cuicui said while picking beans. "Our children in the past were not as pampered as they are now. Farmers' children should run around and jump around so that they can grow up strong.
They are about the same age, put them on the ground and let them play!"
"Mom, my Yunrui is still young. There are so many things in this yard. If he gets bumped, I will feel bad too." Xie Ruyi patted Gu Yunrui on the back. "Anyway, I have nothing to do now. You can keep the child with you so that you can work with peace of mind."
"My Lebao fell down yesterday," Hong Daya said, pursing her lips, "his hand was bleeding. I feel more at ease watching him like this."
Li Cuicui glanced at the baby in their arms and said nothing. She turned around and said to the fourth brother's wife, "The fourth brother and his brothers took people to the river in front to fish. I don't know how it went. I hope they didn't catch any fish and got frozen by the cold wind by the river."
The old lady felt that her sons were a bit too much trouble during the New Year.
Although his family clearly had no need for this, he still insisted on joining the villagers in having fun.
"Mom, let's not worry about them." Liu Liu was not worried. Gu Yuanshui and the others were wrapped in cloaks when they went out, and there were people following them, so they would not get cold at all.
"Besides, we have Liang Xiaojun, Liu Heizi and other fishing experts. They will just help out and take advantage of the situation. They won't return empty-handed."
"Yes, it's the New Year, let's pray for good luck and hope there will be fish every year, and let them have some fun. These are the only days in the whole year when they can relax." Wang Caiyue had an easy life this year, and she started to say nice things, and finally stopped using some harsh words.
"Mom, look who's coming." Before the ancient Yuanjin man arrived, the voice had already come from far away.
"What did the boss exclaim just now?" Li Cuicui pricked up her ears. "He said someone was coming?"
"Yes, big brother is really something. He was so surprised that he came back so quickly. He must have run into Hu the shopkeeper on the way." Li Xiaohua didn't even raise her head. "There's really no suspense at all. Why did he have to make such a big fuss?"
"It sounds like something's not right. When has Yuanjin ever been so excited?" The person next to you knows best. Xie Ruyi held his grandson in his arms and prepared to go over to see who could make Gu Yuanjin so crazy.
Standing at the door, the face that suddenly appeared in front of her made Xie Ruyi loosen her grip. Fortunately, the old woman next to her reacted quickly and caught Gu Yunrui who almost fell to the ground.
At this moment, Xie Ruyi no longer remembered thinking about her grandson. She suddenly rushed out of the door and cried out, "My son, you are finally back."
It was this howl that made the expressions on the faces of the women who were talking and laughing in the yard freeze in an instant.
Xie Ruyi was startled. Who is coming?
