Chapter 126 Wait for Me to Come Back

Song Erlang clicked his tongue: "Gu Huaizhi, are you going to rush for the exam?" He brought up the old story again and said with a pun: "A few years ago, you took the provincial exam and almost died in it. How can you be so good this time?" Good luck?"

Gu's mother's face darkened and she scolded angrily: "A dog can't speak human words, so just shut up!"

Song Erlang didn't take Gu's mother seriously and said with a playful smile: "I advise you not to bother. It won't make a difference anyway, so don't risk your life." He patted Gu Huaizhi's shoulder with his hand. He ridiculed: "Brother, there is smoke coming out of your ancestral graves and you married a golden boy. Why do you have to fight with this broken body? If I were you, I would just be raised by a woman at home."

Gu Huaizhi pinched one of his fingers and took Song Erlang's hand off his shoulder.

Song Erlang's face twitched in pain, and his fingers seemed to be pinched off.

"Song Erlang, you must know that trouble comes from your mouth." Gu Huaizhi smiled slightly at the corners of his lips and broke off Song Erlang's index finger with a "click".

"Ah——" Song Erlang covered his index finger, his face pale.

Gu Huaizhi's eyebrows were cold and stern: "Why don't you get out?"

Song Erlang stared at the calm Gu Huaizhi, his teeth almost shattered, and he wished he could crush him to pieces!

But the sick man broke his fingers without blinking, which made him feel frightened.

Thinking of what was about to happen, a sinister look flashed in Song Erlang's eyes. He stopped entangled with Gu Huaizhi and left in dejection with his tail between his legs.

He was afraid that Gu Huaizhi would go crazy and break his whole hand off, so he wouldn't be able to take part in the imperial examination!

Gu Huaizhi brushed his shoulder with the back of his hand, took out a piece of handkerchief, wiped his fingers clean, and said to Gu's mother beside him: "Mom, please stay and don't have to send me far."

Song Erlang's words touched Gu's mother's mind. What happened back then left a shadow in Gu's mother's heart. Even though Su Wan and Gu Huaizhi promised that there would be no problems this time, Gu's mother still couldn't help but worry, fearing that something might happen. An accident occurred.

Gu's mother's cloudy eyes were filled with deep worry. She tried several times to ask Gu Huaizhi not to take the scientific examination and wait another three years.

But Gu's mother couldn't say anything to stop Gu Huai from making progress.

She wanted Su Wan to be her daughter-in-law, and Gu Huaizhi had to be good enough.

"Hey, I won't send you far, so I will send you to the carriage." Gu's mother repeatedly warned: "You do what you can, don't carry it, if you feel uncomfortable, you have to tell the invigilator."

"Okay." Gu Huaizhi agreed and turned to Su Wan: "I'll have to trouble you to take care of my family."

"This is what I should do. You can take the exam with peace of mind, and I will guard the rear for you." Su Wan pointed to a dark blue baggage in his hand: "I will make the medicine you usually take into pills for your convenience. You take it every day. It also contains medicine for typhoid fever and some medicine to nourish the body. I put a small note on it, and you choose to take medicine according to the instructions."

A warm current surged in Gu Huaizhi's heart. He raised his hand to rub her head, brushed her cheek with his fingers, and said warmly: "Wait until I come back."

Su Wan was stunned. This was the first time Gu Huaizhi had touched her cheek. She felt a strange feeling in her heart, and she was still vaguely shy.

She rubbed her cheek with the back of her hand and urged: "Go quickly, don't waste time."

Gu Huaizhi left in a carriage.

Mother Gu's eyes were red, praying in her heart that Gu Huaizhi would come back safely this time.

Su Wan knew Gu Huaizhi's physical condition very well and was not worried at all. And there was also a kind of mysterious self-confidence, and he never thought that Gu Huaizhi would fail the exam.

"Don't waste time, you two, and go to the academy to study as soon as possible." Su Wan took off the two cloth bags from her shoulders, carried them to her brother and sister, and took out four pennies, two pennies for each person: "There are eggs and fish cakes in the bag. "

The two little guys said crisply: "Sister-in-law, we understand."

Climb into the bullock cart waiting at the entrance of the village and go to Xihe Academy.

Su Wan took Gu's mother's arm and dispelled her worries: "Mr. Zhou received an order from Guangling Mansion. The order is a bit large. I just plan to go to the city in person to deliver a batch of goods first and then inspect it. We are going to open a workshop in Fucheng. Huaizhi will enter the examination room tomorrow afternoon, and I will come back together after he finishes the examination."

Sure enough, Gu's mother felt relieved after hearing Su Wan's words.

"Wanwan, please pay more attention to Gu Huaizhi." Gu's mother said sadly: "This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the family cannot be reunited."

Su Wan felt a little emotional. This was her first festival.

Suddenly, her footsteps stopped, and she saw Qi Wu's figure flashing past, and said to Gu's mother: "You go home first, I will pick some green onions from the field, and I will cook a bowl of green onion noodles for Jiu Ge later."

Gu's mother muttered: "This girl eats noodles every meal, and she can't get tired of it. I'll talk to her when I get back and tell her to eat some meat, otherwise how can she grow taller? She's as thin as a bamboo pole. When the wind blows, she can be killed. Scrape away.”

While talking, Gu's mother went to Gu's house angrily.

Su Wan walked towards Qi Wu, who was hiding in an abandoned thatched house.

"Miss, everything you told me has been done. Boss, please don't worry." Qi Wu pulled Su Wan and squatted in the corner, as if he were a thief, and said in a low voice: "Hu's injury After being raised, she said she didn't want to drag us down and wanted to leave Qingfeng Mountain. The boss asked me to ask you whether we should send Hu out of the mountain. "

"Ms. Hu can't go back to her parents' home. Where can she go when she's alone? Tell her that she doesn't want to live and eat for free and work like everyone else." Su Wan thought for a moment and muttered: "Waiting for the Song family. Once the matter is over, she can stay or go as she pleases."

"Okay!" Qi Wu got the right words and knew what to do.

"How are you now?" Su Wan saw Qi Wu changed into a new set of coarse cloth clothes, and still wore straw sandals on his feet. "The money I gave you is enough for you to live a rich life for four or five years. You don't have to save for me. You eat well, wear warm clothes, and work more efficiently."

Qi Wu blushed and touched his hot ears: "The boss built a new house for us all, which will not leak wind or rain. Everyone was given three sets of clothes." He followed Su Wan's line of sight and fell on the straw sandals on his feet, and said in a squeaky voice: "We are used to wearing straw sandals, which is convenient. The boss said that when the weather gets cooler, we will change cloth shoes for everyone."

"Tell Qi Guang a message to change cloth shoes immediately, and wear deerskin boots when it's cold." Su Wan didn't give Qi Wu room for negotiation: "You can't be wronged if you work with me. Don't worry, I will improve my ability to make money, so that you can't spend money as fast as I make money."

Qi Wu nodded vigorously. Following the eldest lady is the greatest luck in their lives!

"Pick two people and go with me to the capital in two days."

"Qi San and I will go with you."

"Okay."

Song Erlang arrived at Xihe Town and got on a carriage waiting on the roadside: "Brother Li, is Gu Huaizhi's exam basket the one I gave you?"
