Traveling through ancient times

Gu Da, Gu San and Liu Li, panting, climbed up the mountain where Gu Wenzhi and the others were. When they got close, he smiled, bent forward slightly, and bowed to Old Man Ma, saying, "Uncle Ma, I'm sorry. I just heard from my third brother that you and the others worked hard to dig the land. My father asked the three of us to come over first to help. Please don't blame me for being late!"

He turned to Gu Wenzhi and said, "Wenzhi, this is your fault. Uncle Ma was embarrassed to inform us. We are a family, didn't you know to inform him in advance?" Although he was smiling, his voice was cold!

Gu Wenzhi didn't say anything. Liu Daqiang rushed over and explained the situation. Everyone already knew what was going on! But looking at Gu Da's expression, Gu Dalian couldn't help but sneered, "Uncle, why did you do this right away? Even if I tell you, do you think you can do the work, or your third uncle can do the work, or your fourth uncle can help? I'm kind enough to let you rest, but it's my second brother's fault!"

Gu Dalian knew that as long as this family knew about it, they would definitely get involved. In fact, she was not avoiding them on purpose, but she just didn't want to see them and let them take advantage of it. It was already great enough for her to be able to get a few big sweet potatoes!

Gu Da was a little annoyed when he heard what Gu Dalian said: "My niece, you are becoming more and more unruly. Although your parents are gone, the elders in the family are still here. They still have to teach you the rules. When the elders are talking, how can you interrupt them casually?"

Gu Dalian was so angry that she forgot about it. Before she could say anything, she heard her second brother say coldly, "Uncle, I know I am not good at talking. What I say is what I say!"

Gu Da was a little speechless, thinking about the fact that he still had to deal with Old Man Ma, so he smiled and said to Old Man Ma: "Uncle Ma, we are late. I see that a lot of things have been dug up from the land. I used to be an accountant in the rice shop in town, so I have no problem with estimating and counting. How about I help count?"

Having said that, he turned around and said to Gu San and Liu Li, "If you two have some strength, come and help carry it to the edge of the field!" Gu San nodded and walked towards a basket covered with sweet potato leaves!

Liu Li was really embarrassed. No matter how he explained it, it was too unkind. So he stood there, not knowing whether to leave or stay. He kept regretting that he should have been tougher and not come!

Everyone watched Gu Da perform a one-man show, and they all remained silent. The atmosphere seemed to be frozen!

Old man Ma had a blank expression on his face. He rubbed his hands and looked at Ma Xiaolian next to him. Ma Xiaolian understood and stepped back. He whispered something to one of the men, and that man left!

Ma Mingli thought for a moment, then walked to Gu Da and said with a distant smile: "Brother Gu, some things are of great importance, but since you have come up to me, I will kindly remind you that some things should be avoided! Brother Gu, you should take your family to rest in the cave for two days. We will set off in two days!"

Gu Da was stunned when he heard this. He looked around and his heart trembled. He became alert. It seemed that he had offended someone he shouldn't have offended! Thinking of this, his smile became even brighter. He clasped his fists and bowed deeply: "Brother Ma is right. I was reckless. Please forgive me!"

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Zhou, supported by Qin and Yao, hurried over here, stiffening her neck and yelling, "You damn Gu Wenzhi, you found a good thing and shared it with outsiders. Do you want to let the whole Gu family starve to death?"

After that, he shook off Qin and Yao who were supporting him and continued to curse: "You black-hearted, conscienceless thing, I raised you to this age, and you are going to let you be an ungrateful wolf? You are a member of my old Gu family, and the things you find naturally belong to the old Gu family!"

After saying this in one breath, she rushed to the edge of the field, sat down on the ground, slapped her thigh and yelled, cursing so hard that everyone was stunned: This old bitch, her cursing is really flowery!

Old lady Zhou sat on the ground and cursed. Behind her, Gu Meihua, along with her three sisters Gu Damei and Liu Meili, followed and walked to the edge of the field to help their mother up.

Suddenly there was a chaos and everyone was thrown to the ground. The birds and beasts around were frightened and flew around in panic!

At this moment, Mr. and Mrs. Gu supported old man Gu over, and the two young boys followed obediently behind!

However, when Gu Bufan arrived at the end of the field and saw the big red things there, his eyes lit up and he ran over first, not caring whether it was dirty or not. He picked up a big sweet potato with both hands, sat on the sand, put the big sweet potato on his legs, hooked his sleeve with his right hand, rubbed it twice, wiped off the sand on the sweet potato, then picked it up and bit it. The crisp sound and sweet taste made the boy forget the noise around him!

Old Man Gu looked at his old wife in front of him, then turned his head to look at Old Man Ma, and slowly walked forward with his walking stick. Before Gu Da could explain the situation, he poked the ground twice and shouted, "Old Third Family of the Old First Family, why don't you help your mother up quickly? What's the matter? Can't you talk it out nicely?"

Gu Dalian looked at Old Man Gu's performance coldly, snorted lightly, and thought to herself, "Please continue your performance. Let me see that you are frantically rubbing against the edge of death!"

Old Mrs. Zhou was still patting her thighs: "You old fool, do you think they will listen if you talk nicely? You see, this is food, life-saving food, it was found by our Gu family, so it belongs to our Gu family. What else is there to discuss? At most, we can be kind and give them some!"

When the people around heard this, they felt like they had seen a ghost in broad daylight. What was this old woman saying?

Although Gu San didn't understand what his eldest brother and Old Man Ma said just now, he also realized that something was wrong. He walked behind his mother, bent down, put his hands around his mother's waist and hugged her tightly, saying, "My dear mother, get up and discuss it!"

Old Mrs. Zhou saw that she had almost made enough noise, so she let Qin and Yao brush the dust off her body while she was yelling. She took the time to look at Old Man Gu, and when she saw that Old Man Gu went up to talk to her, she just stood there cursing and didn't move!

Seeing that his wife had almost calmed down, Old Man Gu bowed to Old Man Ma and said apologetically: "Brother Ma, I'm really sorry. My wife has had a hard life. As soon as she heard that the food was found by Wenzhi, she came running here. She was also scared of being hungry. I hope you will bear with me, brother!" After saying this, he sighed repeatedly. People who didn't know would really be fooled by this old man!

Gu Da looked embarrassed and gave a dry laugh towards Old Man Ma and his group. He quickly took a few steps to Old Man Ma and whispered in his ear. He saw that Old Man Ma's face turned blue and purple, and Gu Dalian looked at him with amusement!

Gu Si, who was standing by, naturally heard what Gu Da said. He didn't show it on his face, but his heart was in turmoil: I always thought this group of people were of some importance, but now it seems that these people are even more important than I thought! I must not offend them. Maintaining a good relationship with them will be of great help to my career in the future! Even if they are useless, I can't make enemies!

Thinking of this, he turned to Old Man Gu and said, "Dad, since we have already stopped my mother, let's not affect Uncle Ma and the others in their work. Let's all go back first!"

Seeing that his son had given him a way out, Old Man Gu said to Old Lady Zhou, "You damned old woman, you keep making up your mind. No one can stop you. Why don't you go back and let others laugh at you!"

After saying that, he smiled and bowed to old man Ma, saying: "Brother Ma, please be busy. I will take my old woman back right away!" He winked at old woman Zhou, and Gu Si and his wife went back first. Gu Shaoqi held little Wang's hand on the side, and followed steadily like an old scholar!

Old lady Zhou was speechless, and she cursed at Gu Wenzhi and his two sisters, "White-eyed wolves!" She did not want Qin and Yao to support her, and went down the mountain with Gu Meihua who came to greet her! The women behind her also followed her down the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow!
