Gu Wen placed the grapes into a basket and gave it to Song Zhixiao. Following that, he also handed over a horse's reins.

He spent four hours a day practicing horse techniques, and this horse was directly given to him as a reward. Gu Wu even urged him to name the horses, but he really couldn't come up with any good names, Gu Wen's horses were called Lightning, and Gu Wu's horses were called Chasing Wind. After thinking about it, he named his own horse Treading the Moon.

He couldn't say for sure either, but he felt that he should just choose the correct style.

Gu Wu had yet to say anything, but Gu Xin shouted first, patting him on the shoulder and telling him: "I hope that one day you will really be able to step on the moon and travel across the clouds, and accomplish some things."

Since Gu Xin said it like that, Song Zhixiao felt that this name must be good.

Just by practicing his horse, he had already used half a month's time, and the number of times he was thrown off was too many to count. In those few days, Song Zhixiao himself felt like he was about to be smashed into pieces, and almost gave up.

When Song Zhixiao had just received it from Gu Wen, it had spat all over his face. Fortunately, it didn't throw the person down.

After bidding farewell to his brothers, Song Zhixiao rode on his horse the moment he left the Gu household's gate. On the way, he met people who he had to greet.

Most of the people in this village were surnamed Gu, and were all clansmen of their young master. Even if they weren't extremely respectful, they still had to treat them with respect.

Walking out of the Gu Village, Song Zhixiao subconsciously looked back at the dignified and spacious courtyard house, and his heart couldn't help but be a little grateful.

He had originally wanted to draw a clear line between himself and this Young Master Gu and not cling onto him, but in the end, he had to seek his help.

This place was closer to his sister's home, so he decided to go straight to Plum Blossom Village.

Mian Niang rarely stayed at home, so in these two days she was free to do as tofu hyacinth instructed. She washed the cotton clothes and changed it into a new set of clothes, but when she saw that she was about to come to New Autumn, he did not fear the cotton clothes growing moldy or anything like that. When she heard the sound of hooves at the courtyard's entrance, her first reaction was that it was possible that Gu Xin had come again. It wasn't until she saw her brother enter the courtyard that she understood what had happened.

He felt relieved, and put down the sewing in his hands. He walked out and called out 'Brother'.

Song Zhixiao tied his horse to the outside of the courtyard and walked in with his basket. Looking at his sister, he smiled slightly, even if he was studying martial arts and wearing the same clothes as the Gu family's guard, he still could not change his silly look.

When he asked the tofu hyacinth if she was there, she was his mother-in-law. When she came, he wanted to pay his respects.

"I went to visit her, I'm not at home."

Mian Niang looked at her brother. Within this month, not mentioning how much she had learnt, she already felt that there was something different about him. Although it was still dark, she was brimming with energy from inside to outside.

The spirit that the young people in the crop yard do not have.

Gu Wen really did dress up well. He took out half of a basket of grapes and handed it over to his sister as if he was offering a treasure.

"Young Master told me to bring it back, I'll leave these for you guys, and leave the rest for Abba and Mama and Wu Niang to taste."

Mian Niang frowned, it seemed like she was afraid of being rejected. She knew what that person was looking for, but he could not let him have her way, and the more she took advantage of her, the more she felt guilty.

This isn't right, this really isn't right.

Mian Niang secretly thought that Song Zhixiao was still muttering to herself about the matters that happened after she entered the Gu Estate.

It was not like he didn't know that Gu Yue treated him with special respect. He had been talking to his brothers on a daily basis, and they all envied him for obtaining the young master's green eyes and personally teaching them martial arts. He also had Gu Wen teach him how to read, so even this horse had chosen the best one for him.

He had also refused before, and had suggested to Gu Xin that he couldn't carry these things. Without that good fortune, Gu Xin didn't take his words to heart. What should he do, he still said those words.

"You'll repay me if you come up with a future."

After a while, he came to understand that if he couldn't reject the offer, he could only accept it. He felt that if he lost the bet, he would work hard to learn all of his abilities and use this ability to repay the young master in the future.

Hearing his brother's words, Mian Niang's brows did not relax at all. "Brother, if you do this, will you be excluded from that place?"

This was not an impossible matter. Humans were born to bully others, but someone with no one to rely on suddenly appeared. Not only did he receive the same wages as everyone else, but he was also favored by his master. Some people would definitely be jealous.

"What are you thinking about?"

Song Zhixiao laughed at his little sister's thoughtlessness. "We are all good brothers, who would reject me?"

Mian Niang looked at her elder brother worriedly, not knowing what to say.

The two siblings did not know which of the guards were the easiest. If Gu Xin had not warned them personally, Song Zhixiao would have been dealt with long ago.

Gu Yue's warning was simple and clear: "His sister is this lord's savior. If you dare to bully her, it'll be slapping this lord's face. I'll do as you see."

After saying so, who would dare to act rashly? After earning some money and learning from his master, who would dare to touch his savior's brother? Wasn't this courting death? Especially since the other party was a commoner who knew nothing, unlike them who were all practitioners.

What was there to be unconvinced about? Just hold it in and wait for the other party to master his martial arts. After all, it was still possible for him to compete in martial arts.

However, even if they were to make a move, it would have to be done in broad daylight.

As the two siblings were talking, tofu hyacinth came back with a walking stick.

Her legs and legs were much better now, but she could not leave her crutches or do much work.

Mian Niang understood the principle of breaking one's bones and wounding one's muscles for a hundred days. This was how his own mother served him, so naturally, she would not throw away her face just because tofu hyacinth was not able to work.

After the Elementary Scholar left, tofu hyacinth did not have such a temper towards Mian Niang.

Since the Elementary Scholar was not at home, there was no longer any conflict between them.

Although she did not say anything, she was an expert at it. Mian Niang had finished the work at home before she could even think of it.

There were a lot of tofu for sale, the work on the ground was not thrown away, and there was a pile of firewood at home. Although some were thick and some were thin and thick, they were all the same size as the one Song Youfu delivered them last time, they were all placed there obediently. There was hay in the yard, left to feed the donkeys in the winter, and enough grass in the shed. The greens on the chicken coop were already half dried and were left to feed the chickens in the winter.

If he really wanted to find fault with it, then the food that was cooked would really be very tasty. Even though tofu hyacinth stared at her as she seasoned, the food that was made would still taste the same.

tofu hyacinth always wanted to get angry, but when he saw the cold eyes looking at him, he changed his mind.

She was a little afraid of the two of them being the only two people left in this family. As for what she was afraid of, she couldn't say.

However, even if he couldn't find anything wrong with it, it didn't mean that he didn't have anything to complain about. He couldn't say it at home, so he just opened his mouth and said it when he was outside.

tofu hyacinth's heart was thumping loudly. In the future, when he had enough money, he would definitely do it, but his son's reputation would not be ruined.

If she didn't want to ruin her son's reputation, then she could only ruin his reputation and let everyone in the village know that this daughter-in-law wasn't as good as she looked on the surface.

If her reputation as an unfilial and ungrateful person were to spread out, others would definitely not say anything about it. If that were to happen, her reputation as an Elementary Scholar would definitely not be bad.

It was just that she did not expect her plans to be good, but other than Aunt Wang and a few others, no one believed what she said. She would even persuade her to say some good things about Mian Niang, and warn her not to be dissatisfied.

How could she not be satisfied? Such a big character and yet she didn't even know how to read a few words? Was he unworthy of her son?

Today was no exception. tofu hyacinth had been scolded, and the one who scolded her was none other than the patriarch's wife. She was going to call him Aunt.

The moment she opened her mouth, she did not stop, reprimanding her on the well in front of everyone. It seemed as if he had come prepared.

Backup and fame were all there, not to mention the tofu hyacinth, even in the whole village no one would dare talk back to the patriarch's wife.

tofu hyacinth refuted a few words before being reprimanded even more fiercely. Before he left, he even exhorted "Do your best!"

She was planning for the best in the future.

tofu hyacinth was filled with dissatisfaction, but he could only return with a pale face.

She didn't expect to see someone that bothered her even more the moment she got home.

In particular, he had a basket on his arm. Although the basket looked pretty, and was completely different from the one his family used, tofu hyacinth still despised it, as if he despised this pair of siblings from the bottom of his heart. It was as if they were his family.

"Why are you back?"

She casually asked with a tone of contempt that had already seeped into her bones.

tofu hyacinth understood this logic in his heart. With such a tense situation in front of him, he could still train them in his head, but in front of him, they could still do it on the surface.

The two siblings didn't expect her to speak in an amiable manner. If that really happened, they would have to wonder if she was up to something again.

Her mother-in-law was not difficult for her sister, and not difficult for her family. Song Zhixiao was still very respectful to her, after all, he was an elder.

After greeting him, he stated his purpose for coming here.

tofu hyacinth had to ask about the Gu family's situation, and Song Zhixiao did not hide it from them and told them everything.

Hearing that Song Zhixiao had brought the silver back, tofu hyacinth turned his eyes and laughed: "Your family is still the best, both of us can earn money, and in our family, Han Lin has gone to study, so what if I want to go out and earn money? I also have the same situation, and even if I want to make money, I can't do it, so I want to let Mian Niang rest, but I really can't.
