It was almost noon when officials Bai Jingping and others came late.

Of course, Gu Chengrui is a third-rank official after all, so he didn't go to welcome the guests.

Instead, he and his father and uncle Gu helped the patriarch entertain guests near the ancestral hall.

Under the leadership of Gu Chengxi, when Bai Jingping arrived, he came over to salute and said, "My subordinate Bai Jingping (Tian Jingzhong...), I have met Mr. Gu."

"Please hurry up, both of you, we have really shared weal and woe, you don't need to be so polite." Gu Chengrui stepped forward and said.

Then he cupped his fists and said, "Little brother, I haven't congratulated the two Gao Sheng yet."

"Congratulations, congratulations, how long do you plan to stay when you come back this time, let's get together when you have time?" Bai Jingping said.

"It's easy to say, my brother will take time to go to the county seat some other day, and let's have a good get together at the Hongyun Building in the county seat." Gu Chengrui replied.

"Then we'll just wait." Bai Jingping said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he greeted Gu Chengye politely, and then went to find today's protagonist, Gu Chengsi.

At this moment, Gu Chengrui walked up to Zhang Butou and said, "Hi brother-in-law."

"Okay, I heard that my brother and sister are pregnant, congratulations."

"Tongxi, we weren't there when you got married, so let's sit at home after you finish your work in the afternoon."

"No problem, we don't plan to go back today, we have plenty of time."

"Alright, let their siblings get together and talk more, otherwise it won't be easy to see each other again in the future."

"That's the reason."

Just at this moment, the village chief brought several nearby village chiefs over to salute.

Then he invited them to sit down and said, "Everyone, sit down and have a cup of tea."

After finishing talking, I wanted to pick up the teapot on the table.

"Third brother, let me do it." After Feng Chun finished speaking, he took the kettle from his hand.

The village chief saw that he still had no official airs at all, so he smiled and asked, "Chengrui will stay for a few days when he comes back this time."

"When Chengsi is gone, I'm about to go back. Grandpa Qian, would you like to go with me to the capital to see the prosperity of the capital?" Gu Chengrui said with a smile.

The village head quickly shook his head and said, "No, I'm an old bone. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back after I go to the capital."

Gu Chengrui took a look at him, and saw that his complexion was really not very good, no wonder I didn't see him yesterday.

Then he asked: "Grandpa Qian is not feeling well, do you want me to take a look for you?"

"It's okay, but I always feel that this old bone is useless, and I'm panting after walking a long way." After the village chief finished speaking, he coughed twice, then took a sip of tea, and then handed him his hand .

Gu Chengrui took his pulse seriously and said, "It's not a big problem. I'll eat more yams, jujubes, and wolfberries in the future. It's still caused by lack of energy and blood."

What he didn't say is that he is almost at the point where his lamp is exhausted, and now he can be said to be unable to make up for it.

If you take good care of it, you can still live for two or three years, otherwise it's hard to say whether you can survive the next year.

"To put it bluntly, it was because of the disasters a few years ago, otherwise I wouldn't have lost my health." The village head replied helplessly.

"Indeed, those who got old in those few years either disappeared or got hurt. It's not easy anyway." At this time, a village chief echoed.

"Indeed, in those few years, not only did they not have enough food, but they also lacked medical care. It was really not easy to survive." Gu Chengrui said here and asked: "By the way, what kind of food are grown in the nearby villages now? ?”

"Our village mainly produces sweet potatoes, and in the second half of the year, we can plant some new corn."

"Our village is also mainly sweet potatoes, but we have found some rice seeds and plan to grow rice in a while."
