Chapter 150 Arrival in the Capital

Gu Jingyun is young and has very sharp senses.

He turned his head and touched Gu Huaizhi's deep and worried eyes, and lowered the curtains of the car window.

Gu Jingyun was leaving his hometown today, and he didn't sleep well at night.

When his mother came in, he pretended to be asleep.

He fell asleep in a daze, and his mother was still guarding him by the bed, guarding him for most of the night.

This abnormality made him very uneasy.

Like a dream, he grabbed his mother's hand and called vaguely: "Mom..."

Gu's mother seemed to be startled, rubbed the back of her hand against the corner of her eyes, and said with a nasal voice: "Jingyun, are you awake? Mom is disturbing you?"

Gu Jingyun stared at Gu's mother in the dark for a long time, and finally shook his head.

"You continue to sleep, Mom just wants to see if you have packed your things." Gu's mother tucked him in the quilt and gently patted his chest: "Sleep a little longer, it's almost dawn." After leaving this sentence, she left the room.

Gu Jingyun listened attentively for a long time, and then the footsteps of Gu's mother were heard outside.

This matter was on his mind, and Gu Jingyun could no longer sleep. He kept thinking about his mother's misbehavior.

It was not until dawn that he found a reason. Perhaps he was leaving his hometown, and his mother was worried, so she came to his room in the middle of the night to see how he was doing?

But Gu Jingyun couldn't help thinking about his brother's eyes.

"Brother, when I dropped out of school, the teacher said that it was not easy to live in the capital. You don't need to take your family to the capital to take the exam. The capital is expensive and full of talents. We are the best in Xihe Town, but we may be lost in the crowd in the capital. If we don't have enough money, we will drag you down." Gu Jingyun straightened his little body and said with a serious expression on his face: "I thought about it carefully for a long time, brother, the teacher said that my handwriting is very neat and beautiful. I won't go to school first, find a bookstore to copy books, I can make money and study at the same time. When you pass the imperial examination, you can support me to go to school."

Gu Jingyun thought about it and it might be because of his studies.

In his mind, the capital is a place where money is wasted, and their family is very poor.

"What if I fail to pass the imperial examination?" Gu Huaizhi saw his worried and nervous look, and couldn't help teasing him: "You continue to copy books for three years?"

Gu Jingyun said bitterly: "The teacher said that if you pass the imperial examination, you can become a small official."

"Oh!"

Gu Huaizhi stretched out his hand and flicked Gu Jingyun's forehead.

Gu Jingyun covered his forehead, moved towards Su Wan, and complained: "Sister-in-law, my brother bullied me."

"Let me see." Su Wan took Gu Jingyun's hand away, and there was no mark on his forehead. His eyes were red, and he knew in his heart that this little guy suddenly left his hometown and went to a strange place, and he was very uneasy. She reached out and hugged Gu Jingyun's narrow shoulders, and said softly: "Second brother, don't be afraid. No matter where we go, we are together as a family. Don't worry that our family has no money to support you to study. We have a house and a shop in the capital. When the time comes, we can buy two servants to serve you. You will be a rich young master."

Gu Jingyun opened his eyes wide. Their family... the eldest sister-in-law is so rich? !

But-

Su Wan saw through his concerns: "Our clinic and restaurant in Xihe Town will not be closed because we are in the capital. We have money every month, so don't worry about us eating up all the money."

After digesting the news that they are not short of money, Gu Jingyun couldn't help but glance at his mother beside him, her little face full of confusion.

What is Gu's mother not clear at this time?

Last night, she stayed in Gu Jingyun's room until most of the night, which made the child uneasy.

"Mother is worried that you and your sister will not adapt. I saw you sleeping restlessly last night, so I stayed up all night." Mother Gu touched Gu Jingyun's head lovingly, worried that Gu Jingyun's life experience would be exposed once he entered the capital.

When her youngest son was sick, the doctor in the town said that he could not be cured. She did not give up and went to the county town. She died before she arrived in the county town. That day, it was drizzling and the dark clouds were about to fall. She knelt on the side of the road holding the child and cried bitterly.

Later, she met a seriously injured old woman who was holding a swaddling cloth in her arms. The child looked about the same age as her youngest son.

The old woman entrusted the child to her and told her that if she was willing to raise the child, she must not let him go to Beijing or take the imperial examination.

Mother Gu experienced the pain of losing her son. The old woman died and the child cried loudly. Mother Gu could not bear it and adopted the child and raised him as her own son.

She had always followed the old woman's last words, but Gu Huaizhi insisted on letting Gu Jingyun study and pursue a career in government.

He said, "What is supposed to happen will happen one day. If we don't escape, we will be able to live in peace. It's just deceiving ourselves."

"My second brother is talented. Mother, can you bear to let him live a mediocre life?"

Gu's mother couldn't bear it, so she let go.

She didn't want to go to Beijing before, first because of her obsession, and second because of Gu Jingyun's life experience.

But Gu Jingyun wanted to pursue a career in government, and would have to go to Beijing sooner or later. She gritted her teeth and went for it.

She might not recognize it.

Gu Huaizhi said, "You were staring out the window in a daze just now. Could it be that you were reluctant to leave?"

Facing everyone's concerned eyes, Gu Jingyun understood in his heart that their abnormality turned out to be really concerned about him!

With a muffled "hmm", he shrank in the corner, buried his face in his knees and pretended to sleep.

It was so embarrassing.

The carriage stopped, and Jiuge lifted the curtain and came in.

"Little sister!" Jiuge saw Su Wan's pleasantly surprised smile, and greeted Gu's mother and the others one by one. She sat down next to Su Wan, her clear eyes full of anticipation: "Are we going to the capital now?"

"Yes, I'll take you to find Jiuyu." Su Wan looked at Jiuge. After nearly a month of recuperation, she had gained some weight and her skin was whiter. She was a beauty. "How are you doing in Qingfeng Mountain?"

"Very happy, my brothers and sisters are all very good!" Jiuge smiled purely and asked reluctantly, "Are they going back to the capital together?"

Su Wan: "Yes."

"Miss, we will ride with you." Qi Guang's loud voice sounded outside.

Su Wan lifted the curtain and saw the Qi family army ready to go. Hu's thin figure stood at the intersection of the mountain road not far away, very lonely. When she saw Su Wan, her eyes lit up instantly. She clenched her fists tightly, as if she had found courage, and ran over.

"Madam Gu, can I, can I accompany you to the capital? I, I know I am useless, but I, I can help you with housework." Hu held her breath, picked at the corner of her clothes nervously, and stared straight at Su Wan, without timid dodging.

Su Wan looked at the brave Hu and smiled, "Okay, follow me to the capital. It may not be as safe and peaceful as in Qingfeng Mountain."

"You gave me my life, so I want to follow you." Hu heard a lot about Su Wan in Qingfeng Mountain and knew all her difficulties. Hu wanted to repay her.

Su Wan really needed help, so he took Hu with him.

The group went north to the capital and stayed in the prefectural city for a day. When they arrived in the capital, it was already the morning of the fifth day.
