curling smoke

"Outside, why is there so much commotion?" Gu Qiu stayed in the room looking at the baby, not knowing what happened outside without going out.

"I bought a carriage and brought it back for Hanwen and the others to use on the road." Lin Dashan said in earnest. Originally, he thought that Gu Qiu would have a big reaction, but Gu Qiu just said "hmm" and clicked. Nodding his head, his attitude was extremely calm.

"Why don't you ask me about specific things?" Lin Dashan approached Gu Qiu and asked curiously.

Lin Dashan's breath sprayed on Gu Qiu's neck, making him feel a little itchy. Gu Qiu gently pushed Lin Dashan's head away with his hands, and said with a smile: "What's your question? You have always done things properly. , I don’t worry. And it’s good to prepare a carriage for Brother Yu’er and the others, I will be entangled like those stingy brothers.”

Hearing Gu Qiu's words, Lin Dashan laughed out loud. He really married a good brother. Lin Dashan couldn't help but pounced on Gu Qiu's face and kissed him firmly, "My Ah Qiu is really sensible. My good brother..."

Gu Qiu laughed and cursed: "Look at your crazy appearance." But he didn't push Lin Dashan away, but cuddled with Lin Dashan tightly.

In mid-March, the weather got warmer, and it was time for Wang Hanwen and Lin Yuer to go out.

Fearing that they would have a bad time along the way, Gu Qiu and Lin Dashan prepared many things for them.In addition to all kinds of clothes, Gu Qiu also brought a lot of food in the car, including the bacon, dried vegetables, dried mushrooms, flour, and even a small pot that he and Lin Yuer made before, which made Wang Hanwen dumbfounded .

"We will always find inns to stay on the way, and we won't really eat Lulu, so we don't need to prepare so many things." Wang Hanwen said with a smile.

Gu Qiu shook his head resolutely and said: "That being said, it's better to prepare it. As the saying goes, if you don't be afraid of [-], you are just in case. In case you can't catch up with the inn along the way, you also have hot meals, don't you? Take them all with you. , take them all." He said and put the things on the carriage.

Lin Yu'er knew that she couldn't evade it, so she smiled and said, "Then let's take it, it's all Gu Qiu's wish, and what Gu Qiu said is right, just in case?"

"Yes, yes, bring them all, anyway, there are plenty at home." Gu Qiu said while continuing to put things on the car, until it filled more than half of the car and couldn't hold any more.

"It's almost time, we should start." Wang Hanwen said after packing up the things on the horse.

Lin Yu'er probed into the room, her eyes full of reluctance: "Is Bao'er asleep? I won't be able to see you for several months."

Gu Qiu turned to Lin Dashan who was standing behind him and said, "Dashan, go and take Bao'er out."

Lin Dashan entered the room and took out the still sleeping Bao'er and handed it to Lin Yu'er. Lin Yu'er hugged the little Bao'er and kissed him gently on the face several times before he still wanted to Returning the baby to Lin Dashan's arms contentedly, "It's such a cold day, let's take the baby back as soon as possible, so as not to catch a cold."

Lin Yu'er looked at Gu Dong and said, "Xiaodong, you have to listen to your brother and master, and study medicine hard, you know?"

"Also, Xiaoqi, Hanwen and I will come back as soon as possible, don't be sad." Lin Yuer looked at Xiaoqi who was about to cry, and gently persuaded her.

Xiaoqi really wanted to go with Wang Hanwen, Lin Yuer and the others, but considering the bumpy journey and Xiaoqi's age was too young, Wang Hanwen had no choice but to let Xiaoqi stay.

Wang Hanwen touched Xiaoqi's head, smiled and said to him, "I'll bring you Hucheng's special products when I come back. Don't be sad. Do you know how to be obedient at home?"

Gu Dong on the other side patted his chest and said, "Brother Hanwen, I will play with Xiaoqi and won't make him cry, don't worry."

Xiaoqi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes fiercely with his hands, and said angrily: "I won't cry, brother, you don't have to worry about me, I will be good."

Wang Hanwen smiled gratifiedly, stretched out his arms to hug him, and patted his back lightly, "What a good boy."

After explaining to a few young people, the sun has risen high and is hanging obliquely in the east.

"Okay, it's time for us to go. Dashan, Gu Qiu, I will take good care of Yu'er." Wang Hanwen shook Lin Yu'er's hand and said.

Lin Yu'er's eyes were reddened uncontrollably, but he controlled his tears from streaming down.After boarding the carriage, Lin Yuer smiled and waved to them.

Wang Hanwen waved the horsewhip in his hand, and the carriage gradually went away. Lin Yuer looked at the family members who were getting smaller and smaller until they disappeared. Wang Hanwen, who was driving in front of the carriage, looked at his tall back, and the missing piece in his heart was finally full again.

Lin Dashan and Gu Qiu stood at the door and watched the two of them leave, until the carriage left their realization, both of them were still reluctant to look away.

A gust of cold wind blew, and Lin Dashan shivered, "Let's go inside, the wind is strong, so as not to catch a cold."

Gu Qiu nodded, took Gu Dong with one hand, and Xiaoqi with the other, and went into the house.

In the few days after Lin Yuer and Wang Hanwen left, the whole family missed them very much, and they were not used to it. When eating, there was no one on the table and they always felt that their appetite was much smaller. Gu Qiu would often subconsciously call out "Yuer "Brother" or "Hanwen", Xiaoqi sometimes secretly wipes tears when he thinks of Wang Hanwen.

But as the saying goes, time is the best medicine, although occasionally they will talk about where they are now, but slowly this strong emotion calms down, no longer sad but only deep thoughts.

After spring plowing, Lin Dashan began his plan to clean up the back mountain.

There are more than 200 mu of land in the back mountain. The bigness of the land is not a big deal. The important thing is that there are many trees on the mountain, which are very thick and have deep roots. It will take a lot of effort to clean them up.

The work of cleaning up the back mountain cannot be done by myself, and it must be done by asking someone to help. Lin Dashan said that he wants to ask someone to clean up the back mountain. The salary is ten yuan per person per day. After the deep-rooted tree and the news of a penny, people came to Lin Dashan in an endless stream, and people came to recommend him every day.

Although they are all villagers who don't look up and look down, they can't agree to all because of face. After all, I really don't need so many people in the back mountain, and not all the people who come to the door are honest and capable, and there are many who have always been able to do it. Stealing and cheating, Lin Dashan finally left eleven men to help him clean up the back mountain. In addition, he also hired a few children from the village to help clean up small rocks, each for four yuan a day.

Since Wang Hanwen left, the children in the village couldn't read well, so Gu Qiu came up with an idea to let these children come to the back mountain to pull weeds. First, it would find something for the children in the village to do, and second, it could save their own labor.

Gu Dong and Xiaoqi also happily joined the ranks, and even became the captain and vice-captain of the boy scouts. Lin Dashan took the men up the mountain to clean up the back mountain every day, and Gu Qiu was busy at home with the children, doing During the meal, the whole family was very busy.

This scene has also become a hot topic in the village. Everyone is discussing such a big move by Lin Dashan's family, so it's not really going to be published.

One of the men who came to work together asked Lin Dashan sincerely: "Dashan, do you really plan to plant fruit trees all over the mountain behind your house?" There was a hint of worry in the words.

Lin Dashan nodded generously: "Yes, that's my plan. Anyway, it's better to plant something if the back mountain is deserted."

"Yes, is it used to make preserved fruit and sell it? I heard that it is very profitable."

Lin Dashan shook his head with a smile and said: "It's okay, let's plant it first, the worst is to eat the fruit by yourself, hehe, I guess I will have to invite everyone to help pick the fruit at that time?"

Hearing this, the man was very happy, he would have more work and money, so he didn't bother Lin Dashan to ask questions, and he let go to cut trees.

In September, a group of people driving cars came to Jiangjia Village. They were mighty and mighty, which attracted the attention of many people. The villagers were a little curious and a little scared. After all, these people didn't look like Kong Wu. It's easy to mess with.

A group of people inquired all the way, and arrived at Lin Dashan's house. At that time, Lin Dashan and Gu Qiu were discussing the matter of selling fish at Jiang Tao's house with their three children.This year they put more fish fry in the paddy fields, almost [-] fish per mu, which is several times that of last year. This year the number of fish will be more, and the family will earn more money.

It wasn't until someone came to tell him that he ran home in shock.Gu Qiu was anxious and wanted to go back, but Lin Dashan hurriedly held him down, "You stay here with the child, don't go out casually."

Gu Qiu looked at the child with a puzzled look on his face, but it was Jin Yun who held Gu Qiu back: "It's in my own village, if there is any big problem, we won't be able to help if we go there, so don't make trouble."

Lin Dashan and Jiang Tao ran back home and found a group of travel-worn people surrounding his house. When Lin Dashan saw the saplings on their car, he felt relieved.

He tugged on Jiang Tao's sleeve and said, "It's okay, it should be someone from the bodyguard bureau, Taozi, you go and call Gu Qiu back first, and let Jin Yun take a look at the child first."

Lin Dashan walked towards the person who seemed to be the leader among the group of people: "This brother..."

Before Lin Dashan could finish his sentence, the man asked, "Are you Lin Dashan? King Hanwen of Hucheng entrusted us with something from the Escort Bureau."

Lin Dashan nodded hurriedly and said, "I am Lin Dashan."

As soon as the man heard that he had found the right person, he ordered his brothers to unload the saplings and put them in Lin Dashan's yard, while complaining to Lin Dashan, "Brother, your saplings are too troublesome, and you have to water them along the way." Water or something..." He took out a letter and handed it to Lin Dashan.

Lin Dashan took the letter and listened to it with a smile. After unloading the things, he enthusiastically welcomed the person into his home.

When Gu Qiu returned home, he found a group of strangers with big arms and round waists sitting in the room. He grabbed Lin Dashan and asked quietly, "Dashan, who are they?"

"It's from the Escort Bureau, here to send the saplings." Lin Dashan pointed to the saplings piled up in the front and back yards and said, "Go and call Xiaoyun to help cook a meal, you must be too busy alone, and we I don’t have much home food, let’s see if I can buy it in the village. I’m in charge of greeting the family members.”

Gu Qiu nodded knowingly, and immediately did it.

After killing chickens and rabbits, they took out good wine and entertained the big men of the escort agency. After sending these men away, Lin Dashan and Gu Qiu had the time to take a closer look at their saplings.

These saplings are bright green in color, and there are a few leaves on the branches. They look very good. Each type of saplings is opened separately. There are more than a dozen kinds of fruit trees. It can be seen that this is Wang Hanwen and Lin Yuer. They really care.

Although the saplings are important, what Gu Qiu and Lin Dashan care about most now is not the saplings all over the ground but the letter.However, neither of them could read, so they had to wait for Gu Qiu and Xiaoqi to come back from Jiang Tao's house so that they could read the letter.

Back home, Gu Dong hurriedly opened the envelope and looked at it, then smiled and said to Lin Dashan who had been staring at him: "Brother Wang Hanwen said that he and Brother Yuer have found his relatives, and the journey went smoothly. , but they still have some things to do in Lake City, and they won't be back until some time later."

When Gu Qiu and Lin Dashan heard this, their faces were full of smiles. Finally, there was news. Even if they didn't come back now, at least they had confidence in their hearts. Master...Madam...Eldest Young Master..." or something.

The saplings sent couldn't be stored for too long. Although it wasn't spring, Lin Dashan hurriedly hired someone to dig a hole and plant all the saplings.

Seeing the changed back mountain, Gu Qiu stood on the top of the mountain looking at his little home, smiled and said to Lin Dashan standing beside him: "That's great, when Yu'er and Hanwen come back, they will be very happy too." like."

Lin Dashan didn't speak, but hugged him forcefully into his arms.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Compared with last year, there are two fewer people in the family, and it is really deserted. But fortunately, there are many children in the family, and it is quite lively.

Gu Qiu was busy making New Year's dishes in the kitchen, while Lin Dashan helped him.While Gu Qiu was looking at the pig's trotter soup stewed in the pot, it was wrapped with cabbage and pork dumplings, while Lin Dashan was burning the fire while peeling chestnut shells. Gu Qiu will make chestnut chicken later.

"I don't know how Hanwen and Brother Yu'er are doing? I remember that Brother Yu'er used to like to eat frozen pig's feet." Gu Qiu couldn't help but smell the strong aroma of pig's feet soup.

Lin Dashan stuffed the peeled chestnuts into Gu Qiu's mouth, "Don't worry about it, the two adults won't wrong me. Are the chestnuts delicious?"

Gu Qiu smiled and nodded, "Try it yourself..."

The two were talking in the small kitchen full of fragrance. What they didn't expect was that a carriage was slowly driving into Jiangjia Village. Lin Yu'er poked her head out and looked to the southeast. The place where the smoke was rising was their home.
