Chapter 52 Uncle Ma
Gu Zhang hurried forward to greet Uncle Ma. After they chatted for a few words, Gu Zhang raised his voice and said to everyone, "Uncle Ma is the guide I hired. He will go with us to the south this time."
"Uncle Ma was a bodyguard when he was young and has rich experience. Everyone should listen to Uncle Ma's command along the way. Walk when he tells you to walk, stop when he tells you to stop, eat when he tells you to eat, and sleep when he tells you to sleep."
"Let me be frank. Although everyone here is friends and relatives, if anyone doesn't listen to the greetings, then go on your own and don't drag everyone down."
The village chief was the first to express his opinion, "Of course, there are so many people here, so there must be someone in charge. Otherwise, if you want to go east and he wants to go west, then we can't go."
Old Zhang also said, "Second Brother Gu, this is needless to say. If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't follow you to leave your hometown."
Mother Shanzi said even louder, "Second Brother Gu, just rest assured, my mother and I will definitely not drag you down."
The rest are all family members.
Gu Zhang nodded, "Okay, everyone should drink water, we'll set off now."
Gu Fei found a water bag from Gu Sanlang's carriage, which contained water that Gu Sanlang bought in the city. He boiled it last night and filled all ten water bags.
Gu Fei wrapped a red string around the lid of the water bag, then took it and drank a few sips.
Uncle Ma glanced at it. Was there any special purpose for marking the water bag?
Or was it simply to distinguish it from others?
After drinking, Gu Fei put the water bag back on the carriage and called Gu Sanlang, "Brother San, my water bag is wrapped with red string, don't let anyone take my water."
Everyone took a short rest at the city gate, then went out of the city gate and onto the official road.
Not long after getting on the official road, Qian called out to Xing'er, "Carry your brother on your back, he won't walk."
Xing'er didn't say anything, but bent down and carried Bao'er on her back. Xing'er was thin, and Bao'er was stronger than other children because she ate well at home. She lay on Xing'er, bending the little girl's waist.
After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, Bao'er didn't come down. Gu Fei followed them and saw that Xing'er's calves were trembling with every step she took.
Gu Fei frowned and caught up with them in a few steps, "Bao'er, come down and walk by yourself, you see Hu Zi walks by himself!"
Bao'er rolled her eyes, "No, I want my sister to carry me."
Xing'er turned around, looked at Gu Fei with a complicated look, and lifted Bao'er's buttocks up with both hands.
Gu Fei glared at Xing'er: "Are you stupid? You can't even walk, but you're still carrying him!"
Xing'er pursed her lips and whispered: "My mother asked me to carry her, what can I do?"
Gu Fei rolled her eyes and shouted to the front, "Hu Zi, come here."
Hu Zi shook off his mother's hand and ran over.
Gu Fei took out a candy, "Hu Zi is the best, he knows how to walk, sister will reward you with a candy."
Hu Zi was so happy, "Sister, I walk by myself every day, can you give me candy every day?"
Gu Fei touched Hu Zi's head, "Okay, as long as Hu Zi is good, sister will give you candy every day."
At this time, Baoer got off Xing'er's back and stared at Gu Fei, "I want candy too!"
Gu Fei stuffed the candy in her hand into Hu Zi's mouth, "Hu Zi's candy is my reward for walking by himself, you didn't walk by yourself, this candy can't be given to you."
Baoer shouted angrily, "Isn't it okay for me to walk by myself? Give me candy!"
Gu Fei frowned, "Then you have to go first, and when Uncle Ma lets you rest later, I will give you a candy."
