Chapter 25 Master
At this moment, Gu Jiao walked over from the backyard with a small back basket on her back.
”It took so long to go to the latrine!” Feng Lin muttered softly.
Xiao Liulang's gaze fell on Gu Jiao, and when she approached, she asked her: ”What is uncomfortable, let the doctor take a look.”
”No, let's go.” Gu Jiao said.
It really didn’t look like she was sick. Xiao Liulang went to get the medicinal materials. When paying the bill, he found that the medicine package for half a month was less than one or two silver: ”Is it a mistake?”
”No, it's the price.” Dude said.
”I told you earlier, their business is not good, and the price is lowering.” Feng Lin whispered in his ear.
But it also dropped...too ridiculous.
But apart from this, Xiao Liulang couldn't think of any other reasons. There would never be any noble person secretly helping him.
A group of people left the Huichuntang.
Er Dongjia personally sent people to the door, and when she passed Gu Jiao, Er Dongjia smiled and stretched out five fingers at Gu Jiao.
Medicine fee, fifty taels of silver, first booked it.
Gu Jiao gave him a domineering little look, which was...buckle!
By the way, Er Dongjia hasn’t asked her to see someone else, and they don’t know what kind of business they will give her.
”Brother Xiao, I will take you back.” Feng Lin said.
Xiao Liulang said without refusal: ”No, Second Uncle Luo's bullock cart is there. You can go back to the academy and study carefully. You will end next year.”
When it comes to this, Feng Lin has a big head. His knowledge is actually not very good. The master always said that his essays are too rigid and not sufficiently innovative. It failed the list properly.
Feng Lin sighed: ”Okay, I'll go to the academy first. Be careful on your way.”
After that, he glared at Gu Jiao again, as if he was worried that Gu Jiao would get Xiao Liulang into trouble again. However, since Xiao Liulang said that she had a name, he hadn't called her little wicked woman anymore.
After Feng Lin left, Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang did not return to the village immediately, but first went to the shop to buy something.
Gu Jiao bought some candied fruit and peanut seeds. She found that the old lady was very nice. As long as she was given something to eat, she could stay in the house all day long.
Xiao Liulang bought some brown sugar. Last time he borrowed brown sugar from Aunt Zhang’s house, but he has not returned it to her.
When the two carried things into the ox cart, Ershu Luo smiled: ”What about the New Year goods? It's time to do it too, it will be closed soon.”
The two were stunned at the same time.
Suddenly realized that the new year was approaching.
In fact, the two of them are not living in a muddle-headed way, but they have no habits and plans for the New Year in their hearts. Ten thousand lights, the reunion of the family on New Year's Eve, will always be the loneliest day for them.
Gu Jiao left home at the age of eight in her previous life and lived in the organization’s experimental base. Once the organization was on New Year’s Eve, it would take a group holiday. In the end, she was the only one left in the empty base.
Xiao Liulang's situation Gu Jiao didn't know much about it. Maybe he had been lively before, but it was all gone afterwards.
She is a lonely soul in another world, he is a lonely guest in a foreign land.
Uncle Luo's words made the two of them feel at a loss.
But the two said nothing, just silently got into the bullock cart with the things in their hands.
The ox cart walked slowly, and when it arrived in the village, the sky was already dark.
Second Uncle Luo drove the bullock cart back to her home. Gu Jiao threw everything into her small back basket and walked towards her home with Xiao Liulang.
As soon as he walked halfway, he saw from a distance that something went wrong at his door, surrounded by a group of people, three floors inside and three floors outside, the water was blocked, and there was a faint scolding inside.
Aunt Zhang, who was unable to leave because she was feeding her two grandchildren at the door, shouted at the two: ”Oh, Rokuro, why did you come back? Something happened to your house!”
”What's the matter, Aunt Zhang?” Xiao Liulang asked.
