Chapter 307
307 What do you think?
“What kind of person do you think I am?” Gu shouxin laughed.
Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment before he laughed.”Hahahaha, second uncle’s words are really interesting. It’s getting more and more interesting. In the past, I had eyes but did not recognize Mt. Tai and did not know that second Shu had hidden it deeply. In the future, please second Shu give me more guidance.”
Gu shouxin smiled. Seeing that the carriage was about to enter the town, he didn’t answer.
The distance between the crossroads Village and the Zhou town was not far. It was closer than going to Taoyuan County. If you went in the direction of the Zhou town, you would reach the capital of Qingzhou. However, it would take about eight hours to get there by carriage. Therefore, the people of the Crossroads Village would not go to the capital if there was nothing important.
Zhou town was named after the Zhou family, and the Zhou family’s house was quite big. When Gu shouxin followed Lu Zheng in, he couldn’t help but think of his former self.
In the past, he had lived alone in such a large house.
Thinking about it, old master Zhou was quite pitiful. His wife was not accompanying her, his daughter was gone, and his grandson was by his side, but he could not tell anyone.
“Yuanyuan, you’re back! This must be shouxin’s nephew! Quickly come in and sit!” Old Zhou was a fair and chubby old man. When he saw the two of them, he had a smile on his face.
Gu shouxin thought,”you called your nephew just like that?” Aren’t you afraid I’ll ask my mother? Then, aunt Xiao would be angry that you exposed your relationship and come to town to Cut You Down?
“Old Zhou.” Gu shouxin complained in his heart, but his performance was still normal.
“Why are you calling me master? I’m about the same age as your parents, so you can just call me uncle. Yuanyuan lives with his grandmother at the three-way junction and you guys have been taking care of her. Aren’t you being too polite by calling him uncle?” The White and chubby old man was very cute when he pretended to be angry.
“Alright, uncle Zhou.” Gu shouxin laughed.
“That’s more like it! Sit, sit, have some tea and snacks first. You must be tired from the journey.” Old master Zhou instantly smiled and warmly invited Gu shouxin to drink tea.
Gu shouxin: ” uncle Zhou, our village is actually quite close to the town. It’ll only take half an hour.
It couldn’t be considered as hurrying.
Lord Zhou nodded in agreement.”Don’t you need half an hour? How nice it would be if I was in the town, or in other words, how nice it would be if I was in your village! Half an hour! Half an hour!”
Lu Zheng’s mouth twitched. He could tell that his grandfather did not think that the village at the crossroads was far from the Zhou family town, but he felt that he was far from his grandmother.
He didn’t understand. His grandmother used to live in Taoyuan County, which was further away from the Zhou clan town. How did he endure it for more than ten years?
Gu shouxin didn’t know how to reply, so he could only take a cup of tea and drink some water to cover up his embarrassment.
It was said that this fat old man had a good relationship with his cheap parents when they were young. Because of Lu Zheng’s mother, aunt Xiao left the Zhou family, and the fat old man did not dare to look for his cheap parents.
He couldn’t imagine what it was like when this rich and fat old man was with his father, a noble and upright old man from the countryside. What did they talk about?
“Granduncle, these are the potatoes that second uncle and aunt Lian’s family grew. Take a look.” Lu Zheng placed the basket of potatoes in front of old Zhou and interrupted his melancholy.
“I really planted it! Aiyo, this head isn’t small. I think it will grow bigger.” Lord Zhou came back to his senses and asked in surprise.
He didn’t expect the second son of the Gu family to be good at studying in the past. Now that he had stopped studying, he could even farm!
