Chapter 189 Getting Ready To Return To Beijing
Chapter 189 Getting Ready To Return To Beijing
Gu Chen and others came to a cloth shop not far from the street, selected a few pieces of cloth with good color and texture, and then gave them to the shop owner to make the clothes as soon as possible.
Because the money given by Gu Chen was enough, the boss immediately took the cloth to the tailor in the store and drove the clothes out. In less than two hours, both pieces of clothing were ready.
The moment he saw the new clothes, Coyotito clearly couldn't move his eyes, staring straight at them with surprise and love that he couldn't hide.
Seeing the surprised look on Coyotito's face, Gu Chen lowered his head and asked, "Do you like it?"
Coyotito did not remain polite this time, nodded implicitly, and whispered: "Hi, I like it..."
The sound was soft and about the size of a mosquito.
After that, Gu Chen gave Erya another piece of clothing, "Here, this one is for you."
Erya sucked her lower lip, carefully took the new clothes, and said with a slightly nervous expression: "Thank you, thank you."
After buying clothes, Gu Chen took a few people to stroll around the city, occasionally buying something to eat.
Both Coyotito and Erya are farmers. Although they occasionally visit the city, they rarely spend money to buy food. Even simple snacks such as candied haws, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and shortbread are rarely eaten by them.
Although this girl, Coyotito, always says she doesn't want to spend Gu Chen's money, she still enjoys eating when the things are bought and brought to her.
Suddenly, Gu Chen stopped and turned to look at Erya who was eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake, "By the way, Erya! Do you want to stay in Tanjiang Village or come with me?"
Erya was not a farmer in Tanjiang Village, but he had something to do and left him in the care of the old village chief.
After all, she can only be regarded as an outsider in Tanjiang Village.
And she has no other relatives or friends except her grandfather who died before.
She is only thirteen or fourteen years old now. The old village chief cannot support her forever. Maybe he will marry her off in a year or two.
These are very realistic things.
If Erya doesn't want to stay in Tanjiang Village, he can take her to Kyoto, so the affairs of several people in the house won't have much impact on her. But if she is willing to stay in Tanjiang Village, Gu Chen will naturally respect the other party's choice.
Hearing Gu Chen's question, Erya was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
"Sister Erya, do you want to go with my brother?"
At this time, Coyotito also looked at Erya with his eyes wide open, full of curiosity.
Looking at the little dog in front of him, Erya hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Gu Chen and said, "Sir, I want to stay in Tanjiang Village."
Grandpa is now buried in the village. If she leaves, no one will be able to visit his grave every year during the Qingming Festival. Moreover, the old village chief was very kind to her and did not look down on her because she was an outsider.
so....
If possible, she still hoped that she could continue to stay here to accompany the old village chief and Coyotito.
Hearing that Erya wanted to stay in Tanjiang Village, Gu Chen smiled, and then handed a money bag to the other party, "There is some broken silver in it, you can keep it yourself, and you can live a good life in the old village chief's house from now on. "
Erya quickly refused, "No, no need, you have already helped me a lot, I can't take any more of your money."
Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Gu Chen immediately acted a little harder and put the money bag directly into the other party's hand, "Take it! This little money is nothing to me. You may not be able to use it in the future." superior."
Erya and the old village chief are both farmers, so giving them something too valuable may actually harm them.
There was nothing valuable in the money bag, just some scraps of silver. These scraps of silver could help them deal with emergencies when needed.
Moreover, Erya is still an outsider living in the old village head's house. With this money, she can have more confidence.
"Thank you, thank you."
Seeing that she couldn't shirk it, Erya took the money bag that Gu Chen gave to her and bowed gratefully.
The group of people wandered around for a while, and then Zhang Erniu said goodbye to Gu Chen, and left the county with Xiao Wuzhi and Erya.
"I can't see that Prince Zhuang is kind at times!"
Looking at the backs of the three people leaving, Nangong Yue said jokingly.
She really didn't expect that the king of the village had a gentle side to people. Not only did he buy clothes for the farmer's girl, he also took the initiative to give him money.
This was completely inconsistent with the cold prince in his impression.
Gu Chen looked back at her, "What do you want to express?"
Nangong Yue shrugged his shoulders and said casually: "It's nothing."
He smiled at the two little girls just now, but turned around to talk to himself with a cold face.
Logically speaking, I should not have provoked him during this period, and even helped him a lot.
Isn't this treatment a bit too different?
However, complaints are complaints, and she can understand it.
After all, Prince Zhuang's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion were in a constant state of conflict, so the other party didn't directly kill him, which was already considered a great honor.
At this time, Nangong Yue became interested and looked at Gu Chen with a smile, "Prince Zhuang, you bought clothes for those two little girls just now. I have helped you so much this time, why don't you also give me some clothes?" I’ll buy two!”
Gu Chen said: "Don't you have money? Can't you just buy it yourself?"
Nangong Yue still smiled and said: "Is Mr. Zhuang so reluctant to part with these few taels of silver?! Or is it that Princess Zhuang is worried that the head of the family will find out about it and she will be angry!"
"You don't have to provoke me, my Yue'er is very generous."
"It's like this, then why can't you buy me one? The clothes here are not expensive. I was able to catch Zhou Zhi this time, and I helped a lot. It's reasonable and reasonable, so this request I made is also Don’t go too far!”
Gu Chen snorted coldly, "Haha, you can ask Lao Shisan to buy it for you, but don't give up on my idea here."
He knew that this woman Nangong Yue was really deliberately provoking him, even a bit of a prank.
It seems that after returning to Kyoto, I have to meet with Lao Shisan when I have time and let him take good care of his woman.
Seeing how ruthless the other party was, Nangong Yue also saw that there was no chance and stopped entangled.
....
Two days passed by, and Gu Chen sent someone to pack his things and prepare to leave the city and return to Beijing.
"I can finally go back!"
Nangong Yue was so happy that she immediately ordered her men to pack their things and get into the car.
At the same time, Gu Chen's men had also arrived at the gate of the county government office and planned to leave.
Seeing that Gu Chen was about to leave, Wang Bailing, the newly promoted county captain, immediately went out to see Gu Chen off, "My lord, take care of yourself along the way!"
Gu Chen said: "Manage Qingshui County well."
"Please keep this in mind, Your Majesty, please feel free to do so."
"Um."
Gu Chen nodded, then ordered his men to drive out of the county.
