Halfway through the journey, there was a faint light of torches at the entrance of the village chief's house. The sky was still slightly dark, and even without the light of the torches, one could still see a little bit of the route clearly.

But in order to prevent Dahua from stepping on unnecessary things, Xuyuan still put torches around the cart and held the torches in his hands, making everything bright.

It happened that Village Chief Gu was driving a ox cart out of the courtyard and met Xu Yuan.

"Village Chief Gu, what are you doing?"

Village Chief Gu was still rubbing his eyes and yawning at this time. He was startled by the sudden sound and the bright firelight, but he did not show it.

"Hurry up, little brat." He patted his chest calmly and looked into the house.

I just went to bed not long ago, and I couldn't get enough of the bowl of snails I brought back last night, paired with a little wine.

I saw Xu Yuan driving a cart with a basket full of sprouts on it. It was still dark. Although Xu Yuan was dressed as a man, she was a girl after all. I still felt a little uneasy when I saw her.

He glanced at the cart behind him, his sleepy eyelids suddenly widened, and his eyes rolled as he had an idea.

"Wish girl, why are you going to the county town so early this time? It would be safer if you wait until it's a little light. Stop for a moment, I want to discuss something with you."

"There are still some things to do at home, so the sooner you go, the sooner you can come back. Tell me what it is." Xu Yuan stopped the ox cart and looked at the sleepy-looking Village Chief Gu in the light of the fire.

When making a wish, you have Xiaojiu's golden finger, which can detect dangers around you. You don't have to be afraid. You can go early and come back early and catch up on some sleep.

"Girl, aren't you going to the county town? Why don't you give Gu Qinghan and Li Junyong a ride? I'll give you my big cart. With this one, you won't have to worry about not having enough space for your stuff. I've bought another one, so you won't need this one anymore."

When Xu Yuan heard what Village Chief Gu said, and then compared the cart behind him with that behind Village Chief Gu, he felt that the cart was nothing compared to the one behind him.

Anyway, it's a good trip and I can get a bigger cart for free, so I'm more than willing to make the wish.

"Sure, thank you, Village Chief. I'm on my way anyway."

"Okay, then take down the cart on your side first. Gu Qinghan will be out soon, and Li Junyong hasn't arrived yet, so wait a moment."

"Uncle Gu, make a wish, I'm here, what are you doing?" Li Junyong, holding a torch, just ran over and looked at the two people dismantling the cart in confusion.

"Boy, you're just in time. Take these two big carts to the wishing girl's place, and move the sprout on the small cart over here. You can take the wishing cart to the county town later."

"Ah, how can this be possible?" Li Junyong was very surprised. How could two grown men sit together with a woman?

After taking a glance at Xu Yuan, she understood what Village Chief Gu was thinking. The girl was on her way to the county town before daybreak, so since she had met him, she had to take good care of him.

But seeing that Xuyuan was dressed as a man and the cart was surrounded by torches, I secretly praised Xuyuan for being quite clever.

"Come, make a wish, I'll help you." Li Junyong put the bag hanging in front of his chest on his back and began to help dismantle it. Village Chief Gu had already dismantled his own large cart.

Xu Yuan took down all the torches on the cart, and the world suddenly became much darker. With the help of Li Junyong, the large cart was quickly replaced.

The three of them slowly moved the sprouts on the small cart to the big cart. "Hey, Xuyuan, there are quite a lot of sprouts this time. Where are you sending them to? If it's still early, I can help you send them this time."

Oh my god, how much money does this make?

Li Junyong was secretly shocked.

"No, it's very convenient to have a bullock cart. It won't delay your trip to the academy."

Village Chief Gu looked back into the house again, "Why is this kid so slow?"

Gu Qinghan had just packed his things and came out, still sleepy. There was nothing he could do, as Gu Qingming had been in a bad mood last night and insisted on getting up early the next morning to take the bus to the county town.

how can that be possible.

Gu Qinghan did not respond. Gu Qingming just made a fuss on the side, but he did not go to show his temper in front of his parents. After all, Gu Qingming knew that his parents would never agree. Only his eldest brother might agree if he made a fuss.

It was so annoying. Gu Qinghan's hands were really itching at that time, but the noise in the middle of the night was really disturbing, so Gu Qinghan couldn't do it.

I could only perfunctorily promise to wake him up when I get up.

Seeing that his elder brother agreed, the little boy was so excited that he couldn't sleep and forced Gu Qinghan to tell him a story.

As a result, Gu Qinghan fell asleep in the middle of the talk, and Gu Qingming had to wake him up by force.

Gu Qinghan was so angry.

After pulling and tugging for a long time, the little guy finally fell asleep.

Of course, Gu Qinghan couldn't fall asleep. It took him a long time to fall asleep. Not long after he fell asleep, he was woken up by his mother.

As for Gu Qingming, Gu Qinghan certainly wouldn't call him.

At this moment, the little figure had rolled to Gu Qinghan's feet, curled up and sleeping soundly.

"Boy, you finally got out. If it takes a little longer, you can walk to the county town by yourself."

"Something delayed me for a while, but it wasn't for long, Dad."

"Father, what's going on? Aren't you going to send us there?"

Gu Qinghan looked at the scene in front of him and looked at the yawning Village Chief Gu in confusion.

"Yes, I asked Xuyuan to give it to you. We have a new cart at home, so I'll give the replaced one to Xuyuan."

Village Chief Gu was carrying the sprouts to the car while talking. Gu Qinghan quickly took them over and said, "Dad, if you're tired, go back to sleep. I'll take care of this."

"That's fine, arrange these sprouts nicely for making wishes."

"Girl, you can do whatever you want with these two boys. I'll go back to the house first."

Village Chief Gu greeted Xu Yuan, and was confident that his son could handle these things, so he stopped and went back into the house.

At this time, Xu Qing just walked out of the yard and saw Xu Yuan there. He went back to the house again. Soon, two hot pancakes were handed to Xu Yuan and Li Junyong.

"Be careful on the road. Put the biscuits here so you can eat them when you get hungry on the road."

The two nodded and thanked him.

······

The ox cart was moving slowly along the mountain path. Li Junyong was reluctant to let a girl pull two grown men, so he let Xu Yuan sit behind the cart.

He rolled his eyes at Gu Qinghan who was getting into the car.

There was just enough space at the back of the cart for two people to sit on, one on the left and one on the right.

Gu Qinghan had already closed his eyes and fell asleep quietly.

Xu Yuan sat on the right, with the backpack behind him. There was just enough space in between, so he didn't have to sit next to anyone. He felt very comfortable. He leaned his head on the back of the backpack and was infected by the sleepiness of the person next to him, so he slowly closed his eyes.

It's just right that someone is catching the bus, and I can also catch up on some sleep.

"Wish, where are you going to send these sprouts? Tell me, I won't tell anyone nonsense. I keep my mouth shut."

"Gu Qinghan, after we get to the main road, you can help me catch some of the way. I also need to take a nap."

It was extremely quiet all around, and Li Junyong was very bored, so he started talking.

By this time the sky was already bright and the road conditions were obviously much better than walking in the dark, and we quickly passed through a winding section of the road.

After waiting for a while and seeing no response, he turned around and looked.
