Chapter 202 Not going back

"Jingcheng and Madam Su are good, and you yourself are not bad either. If you don't coordinate things properly later on, it will be useless to just rely on their opinions. There will always be someone to take charge of the overall situation."

Master Wan was in a good mood at the moment, so he couldn't help but say a few more words and drink a few more sips of tea.

"I plan to invite the two of them to dinner tomorrow. You can bring your wife with you. This time she and Zhuo Jing have done a lot of good things, including giving porridge and rescuing people."

Master Wan was not the kind of person who only worried about Master Wan at home. She took the initiative to take the servants of the Wan family and did a lot of good things.

"Then I'll tell him when I get back. Over in Jingcheng, it's up to you to deliver the letter yourself."

"This must be what I want to do. You can just come tomorrow."

It was the county magistrate who wanted to thank Gu Jingcheng and Su Xiaomu, so of course he was asked to send the greeting cards.

So, Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng, together with Wan Fuzi's family and the county magistrate's family, had a sumptuous meal at the largest restaurant in Fucheng.

During the banquet, there was a lot of drinking. Gu Jingcheng couldn't drink because of his leg injury, so Su Xiaomu drank a few drinks for him.

But after all, everyone thought she was a woman and didn't do much to persuade her. When the two of them came out of the restaurant, they were all sober. Su Xiaomu didn't even need to blow the air, his head was clear.

"I received a letter today."

Gu Jingcheng took a folded letter from his arms to Su Xiaomu, his tone was full of gratitude, and when he turned his head to look at Su Xiaomu, he was still grateful.

"Mom said... they listened to your words and bought a lot of things according to your wishes. In this way, everything was fine during the snowstorm a few days ago. They had food, drink, quilts and charcoal, and they didn't suffer at all.

.”

"You don't need to thank me. I also hope that my family can be safe. Besides, these are all things I can do and it doesn't take much effort. You must write the letter well and convey all my instructions."

Su Xiaomu continued to push him forward.

Now, if it had been in the past, it would have been the busiest time of night.

Not because of the snowstorm, there were not many shops open for activities at night.

There were only two of them on this road. Gu Jingcheng was sitting in a wheelchair and holding a lantern in his hand.

He didn't feel terror in his heart, nor was he afraid of the dark night. He only felt that the way they looked now was infinitely warm and made people happy.

"Thank you anyway."

Gu Jingcheng murmured softly.

He grasped the bamboo handle of the lantern tightly and squeezed it hard.

And Su Xiaomu was behind Gu Jingcheng, feeling happy for the Gu family.

There are so many children in the family, so it would be best if they don’t suffer at all.

There wasn't much she could do for the Gu family. Now that they were far apart, many things were beyond her reach. Now it was the simplest thing to just give them some food, some prevention and control strategies, and some money.

The two walked home one after another, the moonlight lengthening their shadows as they walked neck-to-neck on the ground.

——

After the snowstorm has passed and everything has settled, it is already the twelfth lunar month.

The injuries on Gu Jingcheng's legs and knees have all healed. Now he is just waiting for the inside to slowly recover to see if he can walk normally again.

In the twelfth lunar month, every household began to prepare for the New Year. Master Wan gave Zhou Lin a holiday and allowed him to go home early for the New Year. He also asked him to bring many books to Gu Jingcheng so that Gu Jingcheng could read them when he was bored.

"It's already the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and it's time for me to go back and prepare for the New Year. You told me last time that whether or not to return will be discussed later. So what's your answer now?"

Gu Jingcheng was sitting in a wheelchair. He raised his thin chin and looked at Su Xiaomu without blinking. There was no lack of expectation in his eyes: "If we are going back, we can almost start preparations."

Su Xiaomu looked at his expectant eyes and felt that her eyes and heart were burning.

She didn't dare to meet his eyes and turned her eyes away abruptly. She suddenly felt that her throat was a little dry. She wanted to agree to him, but felt that she really couldn't do it.

If she wanted to go back... she would naturally have millions of objections.

If she doesn't go back...it will really be her wish.

When she stayed in Fucheng, she didn't feel lonely even if she was alone. She was guarding her own business and living her own little life. She was happy no matter what.

What's more, she can't be alone, there will be so many people accompanying her.

"Don't go back..." Su Xiaomu tentatively said, "I'll help you prepare the New Year's goods. Then you can go back by yourself. I will arrange the carriage and things for you... If there is anything else you need later, you can also

You can tell me everything and I will make arrangements for you."

Su Xiaomu was a little embarrassed at first, or it was difficult to say it, but everything was difficult at the beginning. By the end of the story, she was able to raise her head and look at him.

With a faint smile on her face: "Happy New Year!"

"Then your legs...how are you going to explain it? They were fine when you came out, but you will be in a wheelchair when you go back. I'm afraid they will worry a lot about you."

Su Xiaomu suddenly felt that it was a bit too miserable for Gu Jingcheng to confuse him to this point.

After all, his legs... may not be able to stand up even after this New Year.

Even if he could stand up, he would be unable to walk with a limp.

Such a handsome face...with such flaws, really makes people feel...that everything in the world is not perfect.

"I told them when I wrote last time that I accidentally sprained my bones and injured my bones, so the recovery will be slower, but it's nothing serious. I told them not to worry."

Gu Jingcheng was already able to walk a long time ago, he just wanted to hide it from Su Xiaomu.

If she doesn't go back with her, there's no need for him to hide it in front of his parents, and it doesn't matter whether they worry or not.

Just the thought... that he and Su Xiaomu were going to be separated. After so long, he still hadn't completely warmed her heart.

She thought wholeheartedly about breaking up with him, but after all, he had done a lot of useless work here.

Gu Jingcheng's disappointment was visible to the naked eye, and it was also visible to the naked eye that Su Xiaomu didn't dare to look at him.

Su Xiaomu still has no idea of ​​living a good life with him.

Since there is no way to give him hope, and since you don't like him, you shouldn't give him any unnecessary hope.

If Gu Jingcheng could let go of her earlier, he would be able to live with other women in the future.

The two of them went their separate ways, and she only had to wait until Gu Jingcheng's spring and then be liberated.

The two of them went back together, but no one spoke to anyone along the way.

In the next few days, Su Xiaomu has been planning to buy new year's goods.

Gu Jingcheng followed her to live in Fucheng, in a small hot spring courtyard. There were many things placed on both sides, and it took a while to put them away so cleanly.
