1854 Chapter 1854-sudden situation
Apart from Grandpa Gu, grandma Gu, Gu Xin, and Cheng huaijin were all experts, so there was nothing to be afraid of if they didn’t bring anyone with them.
The four of them took one carriage, while the other carriage contained Cheng Huaiyu’s urn and some blankets and pillows for the road.
It was almost July, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Fortunately, they knew how to make ice. They had placed an ice basin in the carriage, so it was quite cool.
It used to take half a month to travel from kuncheng to Qingzhou. Now that the road was repaired, it would only take nine days at most.
It was the 7th of July when they arrived at the Qing government office. It was Gu Nian’s birthday.
“Grandpa, grandma, I forgot to ask. Sister is turning twenty today. Has she set a wedding date with second brother Xue yet?” Gu Xin asked after the carriage entered the city.
“It’s set. It’s set for the twelfth lunar month of this year. Your uncle Xue and Aunt Xue have already returned to the capital to prepare.” Grandpa Gu said with a smile.
In the past, he thought that the two children would get married in kun city, but now it seemed that there was no need. Gu shouxin had completed the task given to him by the Emperor in advance. Their family was about to return to the capital, so after a discussion, the two families simply set the wedding date to be in the twelfth lunar month.
“Layue, there’s less than half a year left. Fortunately, I asked. I have to prepare gifts for my sister and second brother Xue!” Gu Xin smacked her head and said.
“Grandpa, be careful!” The carriage suddenly jolted, and Cheng huaijin supported grandfather Gu.
Gu Xinyue opened the curtains and looked outside, ” “Uncle Zhang, what’s going on?”
The coachman’s surname was Zhang, and the Gu family called him old Zhang. The younger generation would call him uncle. He had retired from the battlefield after being injured. He used to work for the Peng family, but Grandpa Peng introduced him to drive a carriage for Grandpa Gu. He was better at driving carriages.
Old Zhang replied,”a woman suddenly fell down in front of us. She rushed over too quickly, so she stumbled.”
“Oh, it’s fine. I’ll go down and take a look.” Gu Xin said as she turned around to her grandparents and jumped out of the car.
In front of the carriage, a middle-aged woman in a brocade robe with her hair combed neatly and without any accessories was lying on the ground.
Gu Xin went up to help her up and felt her pulse. She heaved a sigh of relief and asked the people around her, ” “Everyone, do you recognize this aunt?”
A kind person said,”miss, this is the Li family’s second Madam. She often scares the horses on the streets.” There’s a problem with her here, so you can just take her to the Li family restaurant to find big Miss Li.”
The kind-hearted man pointed to his head.
Gu Xin was stunned and asked again,’the Li family? But that Yingluo …”
“Shh!” The kind person raised his finger and stopped Gu Xin from saying anything. that’s right, it’s the Li family. Second Madam li was sent back from the capital and has been taken care of by eldest young lady Li. The Li family restaurant is a straight road from this Street, and then it’s a taxi.”
How could Gu Xin not know where the Li family restaurant was?
She picked up Madam li and looked around. No one came forward, so she carried Madam li into the carriage.
She did not recognize Mrs. Li as Mrs. Li had aged a lot compared to a few years ago. Her face was pale and her eyes were closed, so Gu Xin did not recognize her immediately.
“It’s Yusheng, right?” Grandma Gu looked at Mrs. Li and sighed.
“Yes.” Gu Xin nodded her head and asked grandma Gu to help her lie down. She then poked her head out to show old Zhang the way.
“Eh?” Suddenly, Mrs. Li sat up and saw Grandpa Gu and grandma Gu. uncle ye, aunt Gu? ” she asked.
“Aunt Luo, you recognized my grandparents? Then take a look at me, do you still recognize me?” Gu Xin sat beside Mrs. Li and said excitedly.
