Ah Mao cursed the mule and jumped out of the cart.
The person who fell to the ground was a child. He didn’t look very old and was carrying a bundle of firewood on his back. It was a little heavy. At this moment, he fell to the ground with the firewood.
Actually, the mule cart did not hit him, but he was frightened. Coupled with the firewood, he fell to the ground and could not get up for a long time.
Cat ttttt frowned and lifted him up. “Are you okay?”
The child shook his head. Seeing that he was frowning unhappily, he quickly hid his hand that had been scratched by the stone. “It’s okay. I wasn’t paying attention. I’m sorry. Don’t hit me. I’ll be very careful when I walk next time, really.”
Ah Mao was dumbfounded. Was he that scary?
“Alright, alright. I’m not going to hit you. Be careful when you walk.”
Of course, he had also seen the kid’s hidden hand. Having been on the streets for a long time, he still had this bit of discernment.
However, this child was like a frightened bird, looking like he wanted to leave quickly. He could only pretend not to see it and let him leave.
The child struggled to carry the firewood on his back and did not dare to look back. He staggered in his tattered shoes as if he would fall at any moment.
Ah Shu also got out of the cart. He looked at the child and said, “That child is carrying such heavy firewood on his back? What are his family members thinking?”
“Maybe his family is poor, or his family doesn’t treat him well.” Ah Mao shook his head. “Let’s go.”
He was a beggar. Even his meals were not guaranteed. How could he have extra sympathy for others?
There were not many people in Gu village now. Ah Shu asked about his cousin’s husband along the way.
When she saw Ah Shu, the cousin was stunned.
However, she was quickly attracted by his clothes and the mule cart. Seeing that Ah Shu looked rich, she immediately smiled and invited him in. “I haven’t seen you in a long time. Where have you been? Are you rich now?”
Ah Shu raised his chin slightly. “I went to the prefectural city and didn’t achieve anything. I just came back and planned to find a place to settle down. You know that my village doesn’t get along with me. I heard that Gu village is not bad, so I came over to ask.”
“That’s right. There are no good people in your village. When your family was in trouble back then, they all hit you when you were down. It’s better if you don’t go. Our Gu village is not bad. If you want to settle down here, I am here too. I can take care of you. You’re young. When you need to get married later, my cousin can help you find a good girl.”
How could this good-for-nothing afford a mule cart, wear good clothes, walk with the wind, and speak with confidence? Back then, Ah Shu was not like this at all.
Ah Shu nodded. “Then do we have to look for the chief of Gu village? Where is his house? Will he agree to let me settle down?”
“Yes, why not? He’ll be very happy.”
Because of this disaster, Gu village had lost many people, and there were only few in the neighboring village. Now, the two villages had become one. Actually, there were many outsiders in Gu village, and now, the Gu family took up at most half of the village.
Ah Shu let his cousin lead the way. He and Ah Mao went straight to the chief’s house.
After Ah Shu went in, Ah Mao said impatiently, “I’m going out for a walk. It’s stuffy here.”
“Alright, go ahead.”
After Ah Mao left, he wandered around the village for a while and found out about Gu Chuanzong’s house.
He stood at the entrance of the courtyard and glanced inside, but he did not expect to meet the eyes of the child who had almost bumped into him just
now..
