The farmer has a mall

Chapter 40

The Liu family lives in a mountain depression called Laolongwo, more than ten miles away. There are only seven or eight families in the whole village, and almost all the people living in the village have escaped from the famine.

The land in their mountains is not suitable for growing food, so they can only hunt around for a living.

However, how many living things can there be in places where even food can't grow well? The son is still young, and the whole family is supported by Old Liu alone, and they almost don't starve to death.

Back then, the Liu family was willing to marry into the Gu family because the Gu family gave more dowry gifts than other families, so that the parents and younger brother could have something to eat.

But her parents felt sorry for her. After Liu's marriage, in order not to drag her daughter down, they didn't contact her for several years.

Even when she went back to her natal home, they met her in a hurry and drove her away.

Mrs. Liu had no choice but to throw some food into the yard of her parents every once in a while and leave.

But on the second day, the food was left intact at the door of Gu's house.

Over time, Mrs. Liu gave up her heart, and her younger brother had grown up, so she could help the family to some extent, so she didn't do this kind of thing of secretly delivering food anymore.

Later, her parents were gone, and her younger brother also married a wife and had children, so she returned to the old dragon's nest even less often.

Until she picked up Gu Nanyan and moved out of Gu's house.

The rumors in the village were harsh, and she was afraid that her younger brother would worry, so she never went back.

Looking at her younger brother who was seven or eight years younger than her but older than her, Mrs. Liu couldn't help sobbing.

Seeing this, Liu Cheng was a little at a loss, with a smile on his old face: "Sister, don't cry, I'm doing well, very well."

It can be said that he was brought up by his sister since he was a child, and the relationship between the two is very good.

But he also thinks the same as his parents.

It was not easy for my sister to get out of this mountain. He couldn't drag down his sister who loved him the most since he was a child.

So Mrs. Liu hasn't been back in these years. He thought Mrs. Liu was doing well, so he didn't come to the village to see her.

It wasn't until Gu Chengzong went to Laolong's nest this morning that he found out that his sister had moved out of Gu's house a long time ago.

Liu shi held back her tears, took her younger brother's hand and choked up, "You, why are you so old..."

I haven't seen it for a few years, and the hair of a person in his 40s is all white.

Liu Cheng sighed, "The baby's mother had an accident last year, and she died."

"What!"

Liu Shi was shocked. She looked behind Liu Cheng, and she saw only his son and daughter.

Just as she was about to ask what was going on, she heard Gu Chengzong say, "When we came here just now, we saw several carriages at the entrance of the village. I'm afraid the banquet ordered by Sister Nanyan has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu remembered that there were many villagers waiting in the yard, and hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"It's not easy for you to come all the way, so stay at home today, and let's have a good chat at night."

After finishing speaking, he smiled kindly at Gu Chengzong: "You have a heart, grandma, thank you."

Her natal family was a lump in her heart. Although she knew it was all for her own good, sometimes she couldn't help but secretly wipe her tears when thinking about it. She didn't expect her grandson to be so appropriate.

Gu Chengzong didn't dare to take the credit, and hurriedly said: "It's not my grandson's idea, it was Sister Nanyan who told me yesterday that I must invite Grandma's natal family."

Mrs. Liu was startled, but then she didn't think it was strange, and patted Gu Chengzong's shoulder with a smile.

"You two are good boys."

She should have thought earlier, who else could be so caring to her except her daughter.

Feeling the irony in her heart, Liu hurriedly asked Gu Chengzong to pick up people at the door, while she took Liu Cheng and the two children to their seats.

The food and drinks at Fumanlou were delivered by shopkeeper Wu himself. He also just arrived in Mingshan County this morning, and when he heard about Gu Nanyan's housewarming banquet, he rushed over in a hurry.

Shopkeeper Wu cheerfully ordered his subordinates to move the things in.

"Little girl is not kind, she didn't say anything about such a big matter as moving to a new house."

Gu Nanyan rolled her eyes: "I want to say, I have to be able to find you."

Shopkeeper Wu laughed out loud when he heard the words, and the flesh on his body trembled.

"Smelly girl, shopkeeper Wu isn't here, but the old man is. If he didn't happen to pass by Fumanlou today, he wouldn't know about it."

A familiar voice came from inside the carriage, and Zheng Tiesheng lifted the curtain.

Maybe it was cleaned up on purpose, he was wearing a dusty long gown, his face was not as oily as last time, and his hair was neatly put up in a bun on the top of his head.

The corner of Gu Nan's mouth twitched, and he hadn't seen him for a few days. Did this old man change his career to become a Taoist priest?

Zheng Tiesheng tugged at his somewhat short sleeves awkwardly.

The clothes were borrowed from Fumanlou's cook. He hardly attended banquets on weekdays, and the clothes were all worn when blacksmithing.

He cleared his throat, took out a piece of paper from his shirt and handed it to Gu Nanyan.

"Last time you left in a hurry, Brother Wei didn't have time to give you the gift, let's make it up together this time."

Gu Nanyan took it and saw that it was Zhang's house deed.

"This is a shop in the capital. The location is not bad. If you come to the capital in the future, you can start a small business or rent it out. There will always be some money in the account."

This is really thinking about Gu Nanyan.

When he heard about the emperor from Shopkeeper Wu, he knew that this small county might not be able to keep her.

Gu Nanyan was quite surprised. This guy was dressed sloppily before, and when he went out, people would throw copper coins at him, so he really didn't see that he also had a house in the capital.

It's just that although she is greedy for money, she doesn't even spare an old man's coffin.

Zheng Tiesheng waved his hand impatiently when he saw that she had returned the house deed.

"Just take it if I give it to you, don't let the mother-in-law, there is still a box of this old thing!"

Anyway, he is also the number one swordsmith in the world, among other things, with the reward from the former emperor alone, he will be able to eat and drink for a few lifetimes.

Gu Nanyan: ...I lost.

Unexpectedly, this old man is actually an invisible rich man!
Seeing this, shopkeeper Wu at the side cheerfully took a box from the car.

"Our boss asked me to give this to you. It was originally intended to thank you for saving a city of people. Now it seems that it is more appropriate as a housewarming gift."

Gu Nanyan opened the box and took a look, "This is the lease for a shop in the county town!"

Shopkeeper Wu said with a smile: "Exactly, it's still next to our shop in Fumanlou."

These two shops were originally under the name of King Sheng, and they were the most prosperous areas in the town.

Gu Nanyan was in a state of bewilderment.

Are people so rich nowadays? They will give away a house when she moves house for housewarming.

Then if one day she gets married and holds a wedding banquet, will each of them give her a husband-in-law?
Thinking about that scene, Gu Nanyan couldn't help but tremble.

But she can be considered a blessed person, don't worry.

Before that, I wanted to ask shopkeeper Wu to help me to keep an eye out to see if there are any good shops for sale.

After all, when the crops in the greenhouse are mature, even though it was agreed that they will only be supplied to Fumanlou, it will not delay her retail sales, right?

Moreover, she stocked a lot of family medicines in her space, so it would be a good choice to open a pharmacy.

Gu Nanyan happily put all the three house deeds into her arms, grinned her big white teeth, and asked Gu Laishhou, who came in a hurry, to welcome the two benefactors in.

The two of them were considered honored guests, so Gu Nanyan set up a table of chairmen in the main room and asked the village chief to sit there too.

As the men of the family, Gu Laishhou and Gu Chengzong naturally sat on the chair.

Gu Nanyan was supposed to sit there too, but she was impatient with the entertainment, so she sat outside with Liu Shi.

At the same table are Liu Cheng's family and Gu Yueju.

Liu Cheng's sons and daughters are twins. He only got married in his 20s, and the two children are not a few years older than Gu Nanyan.

The banquet had already started, and everyone else was eating and laughing, but the two of them just sat stiffly, with their heads down, not even daring to look at anyone.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu was very distressed, and hurriedly put vegetables into the bowls for them.

Liu Cheng saw that the table was either fish or meat, and he didn't dare to put down his chopsticks, but was thrown by Liu's knife.

"What are you doing in a daze? You can get full just by looking at it. You are my mother's younger brother. You can't even eat a few mouthfuls of food here. You want the villagers to break my spine, right?"

Liu Shi has always been strong, even if someone pointed at her nose and scolded her, her eyes never turned red.

Now seeing the situation of my younger brother's family, my nose is sore.

Hearing this, Liu Cheng remembered what Gu Chengzong said this morning that Mrs. Liu had been pointed out by the villagers for many years, so he hurriedly picked up chopsticks to pick up vegetables.

At the same time, he did not forget to tell the two children: "Eat more, both of you, don't let your aunt be talked about again."

The siblings were also starving, and when they heard what their father said, they picked up the steamed buns in front of them and gnawed them.

They are not greedy, they only eat the few dishes in front of them.

A yard of people were talking and laughing when there was the sound of hurried footsteps at the door.

The eldest son of the village chief rushed in running and jolting, his face full of panic.

　Thank you for your support. Seeing how happy you are smiling in the comments, I suddenly feel that the years are quiet.

　　And those book friends who voted for rewards, thank you for your encouragement, which made me more confident to write, so...

　　Short~

　　Vote for me~(￣▽￣～)~
