Xie's family has come up to welcome them now, and Gu Yundong looked at the family of four.
Xie Xi still had well-drilling tools at his feet, obviously planning to send Wei Shi away to work in a neighboring village.
Standing beside him was a boy in his teens, who should be Xie Zhi's younger brother. This was the first time Gu Yundong saw him.
Wei Shi came over carrying two sacks, with a bit of embarrassment on his face, "Mrs. Shao, I have a lot of things. No, it's rare to go back to my mother's house, and I prepared so much without knowing it."
"It's okay, after all, it's my aunt's filial piety." Gu Yundong said, and greeted Tong Shuitao, "You can help aunt carry the burden."
Wei Shi was astonished, and quickly backed away, "No, no, I can do it myself. I also picked it when I went back to the mountains before. Don't worry, I will definitely not hold back and delay your time."
But immediately afterwards, she frowned again. Strange, even if she asks a servant to help her, she should find a strong man. Why did Mrs. Shao ask the servant girl to come instead?
Seeing Wei's refusal, Gu Yundong didn't force it, "That's fine, if Auntie feels tired, just let me know, there are too many of us, so we can help you in exchange."
Wei Shi just smiled and didn't answer.
A group of people bid farewell to the Xie family, as well as the village head Xie and the third uncle who followed, and then began to advance into the mountain.
As soon as he entered the mountain, there was no one around, so Duan Qian asked Wei as he walked, "Auntie Xie, do you know if there is a family in Gaotan Mountain that moved here two years ago?"
"Is this the family you are looking for?"
Duan Qian nodded, but Wei Shi frowned and shook his head, "Then I don't know. I went back to my mother's house three years ago. I really don't know how many families there are in the mountains in the past three years."
Duan Qian felt a little regretful after listening.
Wei said, "But it doesn't matter. Let's go all the way inside and look for it all the way. When we get to my natal family, I will ask my two elder brothers. If there are more people in the nearby mountains, they will know."
"Then I will trouble Auntie."
Wei Shi smiled, "My lord, you don't have to be so polite."
Everyone didn't say any more, and continued to walk forward.
The mountain road is difficult to walk. Fortunately, they are all people with a foundation in martial arts, and their balance, agility, and physical fitness are not bad.
Wei Shi carried the burden and led the way, looking back from time to time, for fear that they would not be able to keep up, or their hands and feet would be tired.
Who knew that Mrs. Shao, who looked at the frail Mrs. Shao, and Mr. Duan, who looked like an aristocrat, were walking steadily without any confusion in their tone, which surprised her for a while.
Are the young masters and ladies in the city already so powerful now? Walking on the mountain road is like walking on bluestone slabs, not only at a steady speed, but also not slow at all.
On the contrary, she almost got into a fight because she was carrying two sacks that got in the way, and because her mind was on the people behind her.
"Pause."
Wei Shi was feeling emotional in his heart, but there was a sudden stop in his ear.
Wei quickly stood up, turned his head and asked, "What's the matter? Are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?" Although he only walked for a quarter of an hour.
It was Duan Qian's guard who called to stop. The guard was at the back, but now he looked back with vigilant eyes.
With a vigilant expression on his face, he whispered, "There are people following us."
"Is someone following?" Duan Qian frowned, and the others immediately stopped all movements and listened carefully to the voice behind. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
