I feel so good after dressing up as a peasant girl
Chapter 93: Leading the Cow Home
Bai Jingzhou chuckled, "I know. But those people are not important to me."
Rather than slapping in the face those insignificant people, he would rather repay those who have shown kindness to him through his unremitting efforts when the opportunity is right.
Gu Wenxuan smiled at him and said, "It really doesn't matter."
Bai Jingzhou's eyes were gentle, "Let's go back to the village tonight. I want to solve the horse issue first."
Gu Wenxuan nodded, "Then let's go to the county town with the village head tomorrow."
They have money now, and taking advantage of the chaos in the world and low prices, the two plan to buy more fixed assets such as farms, shops, and mansions.
Bai Jingzhou said "hmm", "Shall we take two cows back with us?"
Gu Wenxuan nodded, "Okay, it's just right for our two families to go one by one."
With the cow, the family can save a lot of effort during the autumn harvest.
After discussing what to do next, the two stopped talking. Gu Wenxuan moved to the seat behind Bai Jingzhou and sat down next to him.
Bai Jingzhou's back stiffened for a moment, and he subconsciously tightened the whip, allowing himself to slowly relax.
The carriage was moving very fast. Before the sun set, Bai Jingzhou drove the carriage back to the yard they rented in Liulin Town.
Because the four cows were living creatures, they did not take them to the hidden valley, but left them there for the women to help take care of them.
The two men picked out two strong bulls that were suitable for use, tied them to the back of the carriage, and took them back to Baijia Village.
As soon as the carriage entered the village, the villagers who saw it immediately gathered around and asked Bai Jingzhou and Gu Wenxuan where they got the horses and cows.
Bai Jingzhou had expected this, and when someone asked him about it, he said, "The cow was given by our master, and the carriage was just lent to us for use. We will return it tomorrow."
Everyone was filled with envy when they heard this. Where on earth did these two kids find such a good master? Not only did he teach them skills, he even gave them cows!
When other families' children become apprentices, their families first have to find connections by stealing holes in doors and then eagerly give gifts to the master, and finally beg the master to accept their children as apprentices. Whether the master will teach them real skills or not depends on his mood.
There are those unlucky ones who have been working as free long-term laborers in their master's home for more than ten years, but have not learned any real skills. Unlike Bai Jingzhou and Gu Wenxuan, they have not only learned real skills, but also come back to their home almost every day.
Without them saying anything, everyone could guess that their master definitely did not treat them as free labor to be ordered around.
Gu Wenxuan and Bai Jingzhou didn't care what these people thought. Bai Jingzhou first drove the carriage to take Gu Wenxuan and the cow allocated to her family back to Gu's family at the end of the village. He greeted the Gu family across the fence, and then turned the carriage around and drove it back to his own home.
Li and other female relatives were cooking in the kitchen, while Mr. Gu and others walked out of the house one after another and came to Gu Wenxuan and the cow.
"Where did this cow come from?" Gu Yongming asked Gu Wenxuan with a puzzled look while staring at the cow.
Gu Wenxuan handed the reins to her father, "My master gave it to me. Jingzhou also has one."
"What?" Mr. Gu was stunned. "Your master..."
Gu Wenxuan had already discussed this with Bai Jingzhou. She said, "She said that she wanted to thank us for giving the Ganoderma Lucidum to my master and my grandfather."
Old Master Gu frowned, "That person helped us sell the Ganoderma. If it weren't for your master and his wife, would you and Jingzhou, two half-grown children, have been able to exchange that thing for such a large sum of money smoothly?"
"That's what I said, too." Gu Wenxuan gave Old Man Gu a thumbs up, "But my master and grandmaster insisted on giving it to me, saying something like 'a gift from an elder cannot be refused', and they insisted that Jingzhou and I keep it."
Gu Yongming sighed, "Your master and grandmaster are too particular."
They gave the Lingzhi to the other party to thank him for teaching their children and selling Lingzhi. Now they received two cows as a gift. This is really...
Gu Wenxuan nodded in agreement, "Dad is right, they are just too polite, but Jingzhou and I are the younger generation, we can't talk back to Master, so we can only find a way to repay them later."
Gu Yongming touched the horn lovingly, "Okay, then we'll find a way to thank your master and grandmaster later."
Only with give and take can the relationship between them as master and disciple gradually warm up and get better and better.
Gu Wenxuan smiled, "Then let's go home first. I still have some hot meat buns in my backpack."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Gu subconsciously asked, "Did your master give it to you as well?"
Gu Wenxuan shook her head, "Jingzhou and I bought it ourselves."
Mr. Gu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."
Gu Wenxuan always used to bring delicious food home in the name of her master. After so many times, the Gu family members felt a psychological burden.
Fortunately, everyone has now seen Gu Wenxuan's abilities. Even if she takes out money to improve her family's meals, her family will not worry that her money comes from illegal sources.
Because Gu Wenxuan brought the cows home, the four boys who were directly excluded from the outer circle by their elders finally got the chance to get close to Gu Wenxuan.
The four little ones surrounded her and chattered, and Gu Wenxuan patiently responded to them one by one.
Jia Guizhi freed her hands and walked out curiously to see what was going on. Gu Wenxuan just happened to hand her the meat buns she had bought.
Jia Guizhi only glanced at the cow quickly and had to go into the kitchen again, "Mom, sister-in-law, Wenxuan brought back a cow, why don't you go take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Li immediately covered the pot and said, "Oh, I have to go take a look then."
Lin Shuzhen smiled, "Then I'll stay and watch the fire."
The porridge was cooking in the pot and it was almost boiling. She and Li couldn't leave together at this time.
Jia Guizhi washed her hands and put the meat buns that Gu Wenxuan bought into the clean basket. "This girl is so ruthless when buying anything."
There are eleven people in their family, and this girl bought thirty meat buns. How could they finish them?
Gu Wenxuan: They are just thirty meat buns. Even if they eat them all in one meal, no one in their family will feel full.
Of course, this was just Gu Wenxuan's idea. The three Li mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were used to being frugal, only gave everyone one meat bun in the end.
The Li mother-in-law and daughter-in-law planned to save the remaining nineteen and heat them up for everyone tomorrow morning.
Gu Wenxuan was quite speechless about this, but everyone else in the family was very happy to have big meat buns for two consecutive meals.
The children cheered and the adults surrounded the cow with bright looks of joy on their faces.
Seeing this scene, what else can Gu Wenxuan say?
Whether she could eat one more meat bun in the evening didn’t seem so important now. As long as everyone in her family was happy, she felt as if she had drunk honey and her heart was sweet.
