Gu Yunshu and Gu Yunke were also a little reluctant to part with Aunt Ke.
When they first got into the carriage, they were still a little tired.
After walking out of the city gate for a while, they finally became energetic.
The two little ones sat in the carriage for the first time. The cushion under their buttocks was soft, and there were doors blocking them on all sides. Once the curtains were lowered, the sun would not be able to reach them, and they would not be able to see them.
“Eldest Sister.” Gu Yunshu leaned against the window and looked out for a long time before turning his head. His face was red as he said, “Is Yongfu Village very far? Are there many people? Where are we going to live? Are we going to build a house?”
“Why do you have so many questions?” Gu Yundong smiled.
Gu Yunshu chuckled. “Eldest Sister definitely doesn’t know either. It’s fine.
We’ll know everything when we get there.”
Gu Yundong had already leaned into Gu Yundong’s arms. He held the peanuts that Aunt Ke had given him and ate them in small bites like a hamster.
Madam Yang was carrying a huge bag in her arms. There were clothes for the family of four, several new and old sets, shoes made by Auntie Ke, and a large bag of pastries.
There were also two baskets in the carriage that contained some things they had bought in the prefectural city a few days ago. Although there were not many, they were all neatly arranged.
Gu Yundong looked at the scenery outside the window, which was moving backward bit by bit. She was also looking forward to it and excited.
Finally, she was going to have a new home.
The carriage was not very fast. In addition, there were two children in the carriage, so it was comfortable.
Hence, after traveling for a day, they were only about to reach Fengkai County. Fortunately, they entered the city before the city gate closed.
It was already late. Gu Yundong brought the few of them to stay at an inn for the night. They only set off for Yongfu Village the next day when the city gate opened.
Nie Cong had indeed found a good village for them. Yongfu Village was almost four hours away from the county city. It would take two hours to reach the town, and three days to reach the prefectural city. This was only the time to walk. It would definitely be faster to take the carriage or an ox cart.
Therefore, it was still early when they set off from the county city and arrived at Yongfu Village in a carriage.
At this moment, many people had already been busy in the field for a while. Almost every family was busy making breakfast.
The children in the village were also gathered at the entrance of the village in twos and threes to play. When they suddenly saw a large carriage coming over, they immediately ran up chattering.
There were only two families in the village who had ox carts. The carriages were very expensive. They could not even afford to ride them, let alone buy them.
Now that they saw the energetic and tall horse, they immediately surrounded it curiously. Who was this? Why did he come to their village in a carriage? What was even more strange was that there was a pushcart dragged behind the carriage.
The coachman slowed down. Gu Yundong opened the curtains and saw a child walking to the side.
She waved at him and handed him a candy. “Do you know how to get to the village chief’s house?” she asked.
The child looked to be about the same size as Gu Yunshu. When he saw the sweets, his eyes lit up and he was about to drool. Their village was not very rich, so they did not have many chances to eat sweets. Children like them could only have a bite during the new year.
He nodded hurriedly. “I know, 1 know. I’ll bring you there.”
He stuffed the candy into his mouth and ran to lead the way.
The other children were envious. If they had known earlier, they would have run faster and been the first to speak.
Only then did Gu Yundong put down the curtains. However, the next moment, she suddenly lifted the curtains and looked at the figure that flashed past not far away. She felt that it was… familiar..
