1278 Fan Daqu

Ah Zuo's eyes were still fixed on Gu Xiaowan's back, and his hands were raised, as if he planned to help the girl who might fall off the ridge later.

Ah Mo was the last one carrying the bag, and seeing Ah Zuo's careful look behind him, he felt amused, since the girl had no problem carrying water and walking along the field ridges when she was a child.

Gu Xiaowan walked steadily across the field ridge road, and when she came to the spacious road, Ah Zuo behind her took a long breath, just now she was afraid that the girl would fall down!

Everyone continued to walk forward, bypassing a forest, and there were farmhouses in twos and threes.

The farmhouses are all simple adobe houses, and some walls have collapsed, revealing the dark houses inside. The simple fence surrounded by branches looks very simple.

Liu Dazhuang's wife led them around almost all the houses, and went straight to the innermost house.

Like the previous houses, this house is also made of adobe, one of which is large and the other is small.

There is a chimney on top of the small adobe house, presumably this small house is a kitchen.

The house is surrounded by some tree branches to form a small courtyard. There is a bamboo pole in the middle of the original road, on which there are black and gray gowns to dry, and some bamboo strips. Although simple, the inside is very clean and tidy.

In the yard, although there are firewood, bamboo strips, and vegetable fields, they are all neatly arranged, and the ground is also clean. Come to think of it, the owner of this house is also a clean person.

In the middle of the courtyard was a half-made bamboo basket and a small stool. It seemed that someone had weaved bamboo baskets here just now.

Liu Dazhuang's wife called inside: "Uncle Fan, are you home?"

Just after shouting, there was a voice from inside.

The voice was very old. Presumably, it should be Fan Ling's father.

Sure enough, an old man walked out of it after a short while, his hair was completely white, and the gift of time and wind and frost could still be seen on his face.

His eyes were cloudy, his face was covered with rain, snow and wind, and he had deep wrinkles.

Fan Ling seems to be only 20 years old now. Logically speaking, his father is no more than 40 years old, but seeing this old man, he looks about 50 years old, and his body is thin. Presumably, in order to take care of his two The child, the old man, suffered a lot.

Fan Daqu came out, and was a little surprised when he saw Liu Dazhuang's wife: "Dazhuang's family, why are you here again?"

After asking, he glanced at the person next to Liu Dazhuang's wife, his cloudy eyes widened.

After watching for a long time, he said in disbelief, "Master, why are you here?"

Gu Xiaowan smiled and said, "Uncle Fan, I came to see you for business!"

While talking, Fan Daqu stepped forward, hurriedly opened the courtyard door, invited them in, and blamed himself while talking: "Boss, why did you come here? My place is simple, you just call someone to come, I will just go!"

It seems that Fan Daqu didn't know the purpose of Gu Xiaowan's visit.

There was only one small stool in the yard, which he sat on when weaving the bamboo baskets just now. It was low and narrow, and it must have been uncomfortable for his master to sit on. The spacious and easy-to-sit chair ran out immediately, afraid that Gu Xiaowan would wait too long.

When moving the stool in front of Gu Xiaowan, he kept wiping it with his sleeve, presumably to tell Gu Xiaowan that his stool is clean and has been wiped.

Seeing his busy appearance, Gu Xiaowan hurriedly smiled and said, "Uncle Fan, don't be so polite, this chair is clean, don't need to wipe it!"

After finishing speaking, under Fan Daqu's earnest eyes, he sat down without hesitation, and the whole person sat down.

Fan Daqu saw that Gu Xiaowan sat down, and she didn't dislike her at all, so the sincerity and fear in her heart got better.

Liu Dazhuang's wife helped him bring out a few stools, which were also placed in the courtyard.

Fan Daqu rubbed his hands, his weather-beaten face was a little embarrassed, he was too embarrassed to raise his head to speak in front of Gu Xiaowan: "Boss, sit down, I'll fetch water!"

After rubbing his hands for a long time, he remembered that the Anping county lord was here, and he was about to drink tea when he sat down.

There is no tea at home, but there is water. I am going to pour water for the Anping County Lord.

After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to go to the kitchen. Liu Dazhuang's wife quickly stopped him: "Uncle Fan, don't be too busy. This time the county magistrate is here to ask you to do something! You sit down first!"

Ah Mo and Ah Zuo were not there, standing not far behind Gu Xiaowan, Fan Daqu glanced at Gu Xiaowan, Gu Xiaowan smiled all over her face, pointed to the stool next to him and said, "Uncle Fan, sit down first, Aunt Liu is not Wrong, I came to see you on business!"

something?

What's the matter?

Fan Daqu was a little puzzled by Monk Zhang Er.

What's the matter with the owner looking for himself as a tenant farmer?

Fan Daqu didn't know what to do, and he was a little flustered, but seeing the smiling face of his boss, it shouldn't be a bad thing after all.

But what will happen?

Fan Daqu is a straight man, he couldn't think of those twists and turns, so he could only ask: "Boss, you...you came to see the little one, what's the matter?"

Seeing how cramped he was, Gu Xiaowan felt very uneasy, so she hurriedly said, "Uncle Fan, don't worry, I'm back for a happy event!"

happy event?

Fan Daqu was a little dazed!

The big strong daughter-in-law came yesterday, and she talked about a happy event.

But……

Xiaoling has made it very clear!

Just as Fan Daqu was about to say something, he saw Liu Dazhuang's daughter-in-law stand up and said with a smile: "Uncle Fan, the county lord is here today because of the marriage I told you about yesterday!"

"But, Xiaoling has already refused! I can't say anything!" Fan Daqu said, as if I couldn't sit her master, obviously just listening to my daughter!

Gu Xiaowan was really curious, this Fan Daqu was really a good father.

In ancient times, many men believed that women were men's accessories, whether wives or daughters, women were their objects.

A wife is a machine for managing the family and having children, and a daughter is a machine for making money. Throughout the ages, they can be found everywhere.

At the first glance, Fan Daqu actually took his daughter's wishes as his purpose, and what the daughter said was what she said.

Some people might say that such a person has no ideas, but in Gu Xiaowan's or Fan Ling's view, such a father is a truly loving father.

What my daughter thinks is right, I respect her choice.

Logically speaking, a good family like the Zhang family and a family like the Fan family should be happy and even more satisfied, but...

The Fan family actually refused.

"Da Zhuang's family, you also know that when you came yesterday, Miss Ling already told you very clearly!" Fan Daqu still said the same thing.

Gu Xiaowan took a careful look at him, her expression was very natural, without any resignation.

"Uncle Fan, think about it, that child from the Zhang family is an honest and hardworking child, and what kind of family is the Zhang family? Go enjoy the blessings! If you don’t agree, there will be no such shop after passing this village! It will be too late for you to regret it!” Liu Dazhuang’s wife said, persuading Fan Daqu.

Gu Xiaowan didn't speak at the side, she was smiling all the time, now it's Liu Dazhuang's daughter-in-law who said it, if she really can't be persuaded, she will come.

Fan Daqu sighed, sat on the stool, hooked his head, and couldn't see his expression: "Da Zhuang's family, you don't know the situation in my family, I am just such a girl, and I have no mother to take care of me since I was a child. My life! I promised her that her marriage will be decided by her. Hello Zhang, I know, and I know what kind of good life Xiaoling will live when she gets married, but if she doesn't agree, I can't force her !"

Fan Daqu knew that the Zhang family was a wealthy family and had a relationship with Gu Xiaowan. If Xiaoling married, Guo's life would be...

Fan Daqu didn't even dare to think about it.

He also wanted Xiaoling to marry and live a good life instead of living with his poor father, who was full and hungry. However, if the girl refuses to agree, he can't force her either!

Liu Dazhuang's daughter-in-law had already said that, but Fan Daqu still didn't let go.

She could only helplessly spread her hands towards Gu Xiaowan, expressing that she had tried her best.

"County lord, look, I've tried my best, but..." Liu Dazhuang's daughter-in-law looked determined to win when she came, but seeing that Fan Daqu's oil and salt refused to enter, she had no choice but to bow down.

Fan Daqu's stubbornness, as well as the stubbornness of the two children of the Fan family, are well known in this village.

When Fan Daqu heard her name the county master, he was startled at first, and immediately thought of the meaning of the master's visit. Hearing this, could it be that...

Fan Daqu didn't even dare to think about it.

The Fan family, from the outside, looks clean but clean. I haven't seen the inside yet. Presumably, it must be a desolate family. The family is very poor. Gu Xiaowan is very familiar and curious. This Fan family really has a character.

What has been decided cannot be changed.

Fan Daqu saw Gu Xiaowan looked up and looked around the house, then looked at the two attendants behind her, and caught sight of the two picks under the attendant's feet, both of which were half covered with red silk, but from the protruding place, about You can also see what is inside!

Could it be...
