Under the guidance of Guo Nanxing, they took a carriage and headed west after leaving Fangshi.
They were about to leave the city, but Guo Nanxing still had no intention of stopping the carriage.
Lin Xu was still as steady as a rock, but Xia Dahai couldn't hold himself back any longer: "Mr. Guo, may I ask where your family lives? You are leaving the city soon, why haven't you arrived yet?"
"The houses in the city are too expensive and we can't afford them, so we have to rent a few thatched cottages outside the city..."
Guo Nanxing said awkwardly.
"Ah? Your home is outside the city? Then you didn't tell me earlier!"
Xia Dahai was a little angry, the sky was already dark, and he had to leave the city, so the risk factor would be greatly increased!
"Haidai, just sit there, why are you in a hurry?"
As Lin Xu spoke, he handed him an orange: "Try it, it tastes pretty good."
"..."
Xia Dahai was speechless and took the orange. Seeing Lin Xu's calm look, he really realized what "the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is in a hurry"!
"Brother Guo, you also want to try one."
Lin Xu picked up another orange and handed it to Guo Nanxing.
"Mr. Lin, I'm really worried. If Xu Nianmin finds out that you both gave me money and came to visit my mother, it will be detrimental to you..."
Guo Nanxing took the orange and said in a very frustrated mood.
"Haha, didn't Brother Guo say that he came to me because he knew I was not afraid of Xu Nianmin's authority?"
Lin Xu said with a hint of teasing.
"This...actually I had no intention of finding a husband. It was just that today in Yahang, I put a sign and planned to sell myself to save my mother. However, after squatting in Yahang for a whole day, no one cared about me at all.
!Seeing that it was already getting late, I left Yaxing in despair, thinking of my seriously ill bedridden mother and my wife and daughter who were suffering from hunger, and I was too embarrassed to go home! Just when I was desperate, I suddenly saw Mr. Lin, and my mind went crazy for a moment.
It was hot, so I followed behind Mr...."
Speaking of this, Guo Nanxing couldn't help but shook his head and said sadly: "Afterwards, thinking about it, my move was really too much! If I put you in a crisis, I would be really guilty!"
Seeing that Guo Nanxing was indeed extremely remorseful and definitely not pretending, Lin Xu reached out and patted his arm, comforting him: "Brother Guo, you don't have to be like this! In fact, you are right, I am indeed not afraid of Xu Nianmin's authority, let him know
It doesn’t matter!”
"Anyway, I was too abrupt in this matter..."
"hehe......"
Lin Xu smiled lightly and said nothing more.
Guo Nanxing felt ashamed of himself, which was a good thing for his future plans.
After about another stick of incense, the carriage finally stopped.
Xia Dahai was the first to jump off the carriage, holding a steel knife in hand. He looked around and found nothing unusual, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Guo, is this your home?"
Lin Xu was very surprised when he looked at the few thatched houses in front of him with no village in front and no store in the back!
"The humble house is so shabby, it makes Mr. Lin laugh."
Guo Nanxing said awkwardly.
These thatched houses are very dilapidated, and there are several holes visible on the roof. It must be rainy weather, it must be heavy rain from the sky, and light rain inside the house.
In addition, it was already dusk at this time, but not a single lamp was lit in the room, nor was there any smoke.
At this time, a girl with patches on her clothes walked out of the thatched house, leaning on a wooden stick. The cheekbones on her face were clearly visible, and her body was as thin as firewood...
"father......"
Seeing Guo Nanxing, the girl screamed weakly.
"This is my eldest girl." This chapter has been completed!
