Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 49
Naturally, Mrs. Gu didn't notice Mrs. Yuan beside her. As soon as she entered the study, she was thrown a bomb by her own son, and her expression was a little dazed.

Yang Chunjun supported Gu Shi's shoulders with both hands, looked at Gu Shi with his innocent eyes, and asked seriously, "Mother, do you know Gu Cong?"

Yang Chunjun came back with Yang Chunming, but his face was a little pale in the past two days, and he seemed to have something in his heart. Gu only thought that her son hadn't adapted to the life of a farmer, and thought it would be fine in two days. Unexpectedly, today Yang Chunjun pulled her into the study with a look of urgency on his face. Before Gu's side realized what happened, he was stunned by Yang Chunjun's words.

"What? Brother Jun'er, who are you talking about? Say it again?" Gu pushed away Yang Chunjun's hands on her shoulders like a conditioned reflex, and clasped Yang Chunjun's shoulders with his backhand, his tone a little flustered.

Yang Chunjun stared blankly at Gu Shi, who was close in front of him, and looked at Gu Shi's gaze that seemed to pierce his body, lowered his head and whispered, "Gu... Cong"

After Yang Chunjun finished speaking, he felt the power controlling his shoulders suddenly disappear. Before he let go of his hanging heart, he only heard a "boom". Go, Mrs. Gu was standing not far away, next to a stool that fell on the ground. It turned out that Mrs. Gu accidentally knocked over the stool on the side when she retreated.

Gu Shi's face is terribly pale now, there is no trace of blood on the corners of her lips, the sound of the stool directly brought Gu Shi back to her senses, and a voice in her heart has been warning her, no!She can't lose her composure, otherwise what will her son do?
Mrs. Gu pondered, looked up at the bewildered son in front of her, quietly reached out to support the bookshelf beside her, and braced her body to prevent herself from falling down. She said in a somewhat unnatural tone, "What are you talking about, Jun'er? Mother may I was a little excited when I heard the errands. My mother didn’t leave the house this day, and she just stayed in our Yangjia Village. How did I know the Gu Cong you mentioned?" Gu tried to behave as normal as possible when talking, so that Yang Chunjun would not So suspicious.

Yang Chunjun bit his lips unconsciously after hearing Gu Shi's words, feeling a little guilty in his heart, he secretly raised his eyes to look at Gu Shi and said in a low voice, "Mother, but he said he was my cousin and his father was my uncle, Their family lives in the town, and they let me go to his house when I have time." Yang Chunjun is very familiar with Gu Shi, and the series of unnatural movements of Gu Shi before Yang Chunjun is the same as not pretending to be self-inflicted. It's recovered perfectly now.

Yang Chunjun already believed in what the person named Gu Cong said, because the person said everything about his family's situation and his grandma's family's situation clearly.What's more, that person even waited for him at the gate of the school for three days in a row, and his attitude was also very good, not all bad guys like what her mother said.

After hearing Yang Chunjun's words, Mrs. Gu suddenly lost her composure, and shouted excitedly, "No, no, brother Jun'er can't go." Mrs. Gu heard that the other party not only went to find her son, but also asked her son to go to his house when he had time. So what's the matter, doesn't she know about her beastly brother?This must be another conspiracy, yes!It must not be a good thing, not to mention that Gu Cong still has the same virtues as her elder brother, let alone a good person.So Gu didn't even think about it, and directly refused.

Seeing that his mother lost her composure again, Yang Chunjun blurted out to Gu Shi, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" He was even more sure that what Gu Cong said was right.

Gu came back to her senses and looked at her nervous son, and quickly reached out to hold the other's shoulder, and said anxiously, "Jun'er, I heard from mother that they are not good people. Why did mother tell you to come here before? They are just animals." Animals, things that are not as good as pigs and dogs." Gu scolded here, and spit at the side, "Juner, even if you don't believe your mother, don't you know what happened to your grandma after so many years? Think again It looks like your grandma lives alone, or if you think about your cousin who just married last year, this family is really not a good person? Promise mother, don't believe them know?" Gu Shi said at the end that he was a little bit demonic, and his expression was a little crazy , the hands on Yang Chunjun's shoulders became tighter and tighter, making Yang Chunjun frown.

Yang Chunjun felt uncomfortable at this time, looking at Gu Shi who looked like a lunatic in front of him, he couldn't help feeling frightened, and his tone was comforting, "Mother, can you let go of me first, my shoulder hurts"

"Shoulders hurt? Son, what's wrong? Is it because mother's hands are heavy?" When Gu heard Yang Chunjun said that his shoulders hurt, he immediately let go of the hands that were imprisoned on both sides of his shoulders as if he had been electrocuted, and then stared at him nervously. He watched Yang Chunjun, afraid that his son would be hurt by his careless mistake.

"It's okay, mother, don't get excited." Yang Chunjun took Gu's cold hand and smiled indifferently.

"That's good, that's good..." After hearing that, Mrs. Gu kept rejoicing, her face was a little loose.

"Mother, don't get excited, I just ignore him, don't worry, now my son is on vacation, and he doesn't go to town, so he won't meet him." Yang Chunjun thought for a while, and still felt that it was more important to appease Gu Shi first. As for Gu Cong This cousin, let's talk about it when he goes back in September.

"Really? Jun'er is right to think so. We can't talk to him. They are all bad guys. They must be thinking of some tricky way to hurt people?" Mrs. Gu didn't know what her son was thinking now, All I know is that her son has agreed not to see Gu Cong now, which temporarily relieves Gu, thinking that whenever she has time, she must go to her good brother and sister-in-law to talk. For the sake of her son's future, Gu will not allow it. Anyone can do damage from it.

"By the way, Jun'er, how did you recognize Gu Cong?" Only then did Yuan Shi realize that Yang Chunjun had never seen her cheap nephew.

Just like when Mrs. Gu came to their Yang family to borrow money before, Yang Chunjun, as the son of Gu, naturally knew Gu's mother. It can be said that they are very familiar, but for Gu Daxing, the eldest brother of the Gu family, Yang Chunjun and the others have never met since birth, let alone Gu Cong, his nephew.Even if Gu Cong is by Gu Shi's side, Gu Shi might not recognize him.

Why?This starts with Gu's marriage, because Gu's eldest brother, Gu Daxing, is a gambler, and he is also very addicted to gambling. Basically, he loses nine times out of ten. It's all bad.

The Gu family belongs to the marriage by prostitution, that is, they directly treat the Gu family as a commodity, and even the Gu family's life is their own. Next are the Gu family's younger sisters. The sisters are not good, and they are dead. Running and running, now only Gu and the fourth child are left, because of this incident, the fourth child never goes home to take care of the old lady.

Gu Daxing's gambling addiction can't be quit. In order to prevent his enemies from coming to his door, after the sisters were all married, he and her sister-in-law moved to a certain place in the town. I will not come back during the holidays.By the way, Gu Daxing had an arm broken because of gambling.

This is the reason why Yang Chunjun and the others only knew that they had an uncle and a cousin whom they had never met for so many years since Gu's family returned home, but they did not know what they looked like.

In order to prevent her gambler brother from harming her son, Mrs. Gu often spoke ill of him in front of Yang Chunjun and the others, and even told Yang Chunjun and the others to run away when they saw the man who claimed to be his uncle.

After Yang Chunjun saw that his mother was back to normal, he no longer had the cautiousness before, and directly told Gu Shi the whole process of meeting Gu Cong, "It wasn't my son who recognized him, but he came to our school and waited for me, Brother Minger." I also know that my son didn't believe it at first, but he persisted for three days, and he talked about our family and grandma's family every day, and what he said was not bad at all, so my son believed him..."

"That means he knows that you are studying with Master Li?" Gu's tone was harsh, and he was even more shocked after speaking. What are they planning to do by doing this?

"I know, and he told me that he is also studying at Mr. Zhang not far away, saying that his son can ask each other for any knowledge he doesn't know." As soon as the words fell, I saw that Mrs. Gu had already laughed out loud. Yang Chunjun was a little curious, and then asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?"

"Hahaha..." Mrs. Gu couldn't stop laughing, she burst into tears, looking at her son's unclear face, she didn't know how to explain it?How dare she still have the face to tell her son that she was really laughing out loud, as far as Gu Cong's virtue is concerned, hmph, he is not worthy to carry his son's shoes.

"Son, don't believe what he said, what he said is fart, and he still asks questions? Heh, I guess he doesn't even remember where the school door opens." Gu sneered, her good nephew, who was not before Almost sued?How is it possible to read?This is really a joke.

"Mother, what you said is wrong. The master said, learn from time to time..." Yang Chunjun disapproved of her mother's real ridicule of others. He was about to say a few words about Confucius and Mencius when he was interrupted by Gu. Yang Chunjun was surprised , Mrs. Gu looked at her son and said helplessly, "Jun'er, your cousin is just as virtuous as your uncle. You can't eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. You're the one who foolishly believes it. Don't be fooled by them." "Ms. Gu was really worried that her son would be scammed around by the other party, who sold him and returned the money to others.

"Mother, it's not what you thought..." Yang Chunjun quickly explained, but he didn't think about it, and before he explained half of it, he was interrupted by Gu again, "Jun'er, let's not talk about this, okay, it's almost noon, and you'll be in the morning." I haven’t eaten, you should be hungry by now.” After Gu’s finished speaking, she continued, “Mother made you your favorite rabbit meat, and your father caught it from the mountains. Come, come, sit on the stool. Just wait for mother to come back, and mother will take it for you, you can go to study quickly." Mrs. Gu directly pushed Yang Chunjun back on the stool, pressed Yang Chunjun down again, and turned over the book he hadn't finished reading before. On the page I was reading, after finishing everything, I ran out without waiting for Yang Chunjun to say anything...

"Mother..." Yang Chunjun looked at Gu Shi who had disappeared, and lowered his head tiredly. What did her mother mean by this!Forget it, Yang Chunjun thought about it for a while, and waited for him to have time to observe and observe by himself. He is already so old that he can't just listen to her mother's one-sided words.However, when Gu Cong really tricked Yang Chunjun later, Yang Chunjun regretted not listening to Gu's words, but it was too late by then, and he was powerless.

Gu's ran out in a hurry, and then rushed back with the rabbit meat. Yang Chunjun almost vomited under her mother's loving gaze, so he escaped Gu's loving lunch.

Under Gu's more loving gaze, Yang Chunjun had no choice but to resign himself to picking up the "Book of Rites" that he had read for three days. The ancient Four Books and Five Classics are the necessary foundation for students' imperial examinations.

Satisfied, Mrs. Gu quietly closed the door with the emptied plate, turned around and left...

"Ah..." With another sigh, Yang Chunjun had to put down the brush in his hand, looked at the messy big characters on the rice paper, grabbed the rice paper and threw it into a paper tube aside. He had been studying all afternoon, and the result Without even writing a big character, Yang Chunjun was so irritable that he would lie on the table and pretend to be dead, and then decided to go out to relax.

It was halfway through, and the sun was just right.

Yang Chunjun pushed open the door, raised his head and squinted his eyes to feel the warmth of the sun, which dispelled all the repressed emotions in his heart. Yang Chunjun opened his eyes, stretched his waist and stretched his body like a cat that stole the smell .Yang Chunjun looks more like Yang Weimin, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, honest and honest.

The pear tree in the yard has long been full of fruits, and emerald green pears are dotted one by one, which looks very attractive. I heard old man Yang said that because of the extra rain this year, the pears at home are not as sweet as before. .

This time should be around two o'clock in the modern afternoon, and normal people should be sleeping in the house.Yang Chunjun didn't think about who he would meet when he came out. As a result, opposite his study, there was a child sorting out the things in the fan.

Yang Chunjun was a little curious, so he quickened his pace and walked over. Yang Chunjun looked down and saw that it was Chunqiu of the second room. "Third sister, what are you doing?"

At this time, Chunqiu is busy turning over the newly dug treasure Fu Ling. After all, it needs to be heated evenly so that the efficacy of the medicine will not be lost.Hearing the person behind him, Chunqiu turned his head to look, and greeted with a smile, "Ah? It's Big Brother."

"It's me, third sister is this?" Yang Chunjun just squatted down, imitating the movements of Chunqiu before, and rolled over in a decent manner.

"This, it's Fuling, a Chinese herbal medicine, which Grandpa Zhou told me about." Chunqiu pointed to the slightly elongated Fuling in Yang Chunjun's hand.

"It turns out that this thing that looks like a sweet potato is Poria cocos. I once read a description of it in a herbal medicine book. It is said that it has the effect of clearing away heat and removing fire. I didn't expect to see it today." I am very interested in the things in it, combined with a miscellaneous journal I have read before, the tone is a little excited.

"That's right, that's right, Poria cocos has many functions, but I only know how to pick it. As for the other things, Grandpa Zhou is the best," Chunqiu said with a smile.

"Picking this kind of Chinese herbal medicine is very troublesome. The third sister knows so many things at a young age, and she knows how to pick it, which is really amazing." Yang Chunjun shook his head indifferently at Chunqiu's modest words, and asked him to say, His third sister is really good, even if this is what Dr. Zhou of the herbal medicine hall told her, it is still a skill. After all, no one Yang Chunjun knows can recognize so many Chinese herbal medicines.Except his third sister.

"Brother, don't praise me, I'm sorry." Although Chunqiu agreed with Yang Chunjun's words in her heart, she still wanted to show her face. Being praised by her brother like this, even if Chunqiu knew it, she would blush a little.

Chunqiu looked at Yang Chunjun who was upside down and wondered why her eldest brother came out, so she asked, Chunqiu said directly, "Brother, what are you doing out here? Aren't you studying in the study? Where's the auntie? These two days Chunhua Sister is not happy." Chunqiu said in a low voice, you must know that in the past few days when her eldest brother came back, her uncle gave him extra meals in different ways every day, because her second sister cried several times because of this, but Whether her aunt should give it to her or not, she doesn't care whether Chunhua lives or dies.

"Mother went back to the house to rest. I felt uncomfortable after staying in the study for a long time, so my elder brother came out to rest and read in a different mood." He learns better, every day is not big fish and big meat, or big fish and big meat, which makes him eat or not, just like his sister Chunhua, who has cried so many times, but he just wanted to give it to him. , was immediately discovered by Gu, and not only did the meat fail, but Chunhua was also beaten up by his mother.

"Hey, my uncle loves you. There is nothing wrong with Chunhua, just cry for a while." Chunqiu didn't know what to say, she Chunhua is a foodie, and only eats, and no one can stop her live.

"It's okay." Yang Chunjun said while flipping through Fu Ling, and his tone paused after he finished speaking. Yang Chunjun looked at Chunqiu at the side, endured it, and asked curiously, "Sister, do you think you should understand a person in many ways?" Understand, you can't just listen to one person"

"Huh?" Chunqiu was looking at her baby Fuling, and when she heard Yang Chunjun's words suddenly, she was a little puzzled, "Brother, it depends on what's going on, shouldn't you just listen to one person, that's too one-sided." Chunqiu thought for a while , well, it is true.

"Really? Third sister thinks the same as me. My mother has been complaining about uncle. I don't think uncle is that kind of person. Since third sister also agrees with what I said, then I will judge for myself. Okay, third sister, Big Brother, I’ll go back first, take your time.” Yang Chunjun was not confident at first, and never thought that Chunqiu accidentally said what was in his heart, so he put down Poria cocos at that time, and hurried back to the house to continue studying. Yes, of course we must hurry up and study.

"..." Chunqiu watched Yang Chunjun run away without a trace, but in his heart he growled and wanted to curse, wait, big brother, what did she say!She didn't say anything, what uncle, what uncle, she didn't know, Chunqiu waved Erkang's hand in his heart!
Really tired, Chunqiu hangs her head down in frustration, she just said in passing, what is wrong with her big brother, if her auntie finds out, she won't be blamed, the more she thinks about it, the more frightening she is, Chunqiu quickly throws it down Fuling, she decided to go to her elder brother to explain, it wasn't that she was making a big fuss, it was that her uncle's fighting power was truly terrifying, she was still a child, and she couldn't bear such great pressure!

Thinking of the final result, Chunqiu shook his trembling body and hurriedly chased after him, no way!She's going to explain it!
Yang Chunjun's study was pushed over, Chunqiu panted heavily, looked at Yang Chunjun who was sitting behind the table in surprise, Chunqiu touched his face, and began to try his best to get rid of himself, Yang Chunjun looked I understand, then nodded cooperatively, What do you know! ! !Chunqiu roars in his heart
"Brother, I mean you have to listen to one more person, after all, my aunt can't lie to you, right?" Chunqiu was a little tired, but he still had to repeat what he said before.

Yang Chunjun thought that Chunqiu was worried about being discovered by her mother, so he kept comforting Chunqiu, "Okay, okay, I understand, third sister, let's go play."

Chunqiu looked at his brother's appearance, and said weakly, "Brother, what I said is true, my uncle's words are very reliable."

"I know, I know, Qiu'er, let's go play." Yang Chunjun looked at Chunqiu with a look of understanding and nodding in response.

"..." Chunqiu: I don't care!

Just like that, Chunqiu left Yang Chunjun's study with a tired heart. Forget it, anyway, she had already finished speaking. As for what her elder brother thought, she still didn't care about it, and it wasn't her fault.

Thinking of this, Chunqiu ran back again, after all, her precious Fu Ling hadn't finished drying yet.As for her elder brother, anyway, she has tried her best...
