Chapter 756: Chapter 756 Grat.i.tude Banquet (1)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When it was almost noon, Bai Jingping and the other officials were finally here.
Of course, Gu Chengrui was a third-grade official, after all, so he did not go to welcome the guests.
Instead, he, Mr. Gu, and Second Uncle Gu helped the patriarch entertain the guests near the ancestral hall.
Bai Jingping and the others were led in by Gu Chengxi. After arriving, he immediately came over and bowed, “I am Bai Jingping (Tian Jingzhong). Greetings, Lord Gu.”
“The two of you, please get up. We have really gone through thick and thin together. Everyone, there’s no need to be so polite.” Gu Chengrui stepped forward and greeted them.
“Also, I haven’t congratulated the two of you for your promotion.”
“Same here, same here. How long do you plan to stay this time? Let’s meet up when you’re free?” Bai Jingping suggested.
“No problem. I’ll go to the county town when I have time. Let’s have a good gathering at Hongyun Restaurant.” Gu Chengrui replied.
“We’ll be waiting.” Bai Jingping laughed.
After saying that, he politely greeted Gu Chengye and went to look for Gu
Chengsi, the main character of the day.
“h.e.l.lo, Brother-in-law.” Gu Chengrui walked up to Constable Zhang.
“h.e.l.lo. I heard that Sister-in-law is pregnant. Congratulations.”
“Same to you. We weren’t around when you got married. Come to our house after you’re done with your work in the afternoon.”
“No problem. We don’t plan to go back today and have plenty of time.”
“That’s good. Let’s gather around and talk. Otherwise, meeting each other again in the future won’t be easy.”
“That’s right.”
At this moment, the village chief walked over with a few other village chiefs nearby and bowed.
Then, he invited them to sit down and said, “Everyone, sit down and have a cup of tea.”
“Third brother, let me do it.” After Feng Chun finished speaking, he took the kettle from his hand.
The village chief saw that Gu Chengrui did not put on any air. He smiled and asked, “Chengrui, you’re back. How many days can you stay?”
“After Chengsi leaves, I’ll be going back too. Grandpa Qian, do you want to go to the capital with me to see how prosperous the capital is?” Gu Chengrui smiled.
The village chief quickly shook his head. “No, I’m old. I’m afraid I won’t be able to return here after a trip to the capital.”
Gu Chengrui sized him up and saw that his expression was not too good. No wonder he did not see him yesterday.
“Grandpa Qian, are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to take a look at you?” she asked.
“That will be great. I just feel that these old bones are getting useless. I’m panting after walking a distance.” After the village chief finished speaking, he coughed twice and took a sip of tea before handing his hand to him.
Gu Chengrui took his pulse and said, “It’s not a big problem. In the future, eat more Chinese yam, jujube, and wolfberries. Basically, your weakness is caused by insufficient blood and energy.”
He didn’t say that Grandpa Qian was almost at the end of his rope, which was why the weakness and malnourished look.
He could still live for two or three years if he cared for his body well. Otherwise, it was hard to say if he could even live past the following year.
“To put it bluntly, it was because of the disaster a few years ago. Otherwise, I wouldn’t suffer such a blow to my health.” The village chief replied helplessly.
“Indeed. Those elderly in those years were either dead or injured. It wasn’t easy.” At this moment, a village chief echoed.
“Yeah. In those few years, not only did the elderly not eat well, but they also lacked medical care. It was not easy for anyone to survive. Oh, right, what kind of crops are planted in the nearby villages?” Gu Chengrui asked.
“Our village mainly produces sweet potatoes. In half a year, we can also plant some corn.”
“Our village also mainly plants sweet potatoes. We also found some rice seeds and plan to plant them in the future..”
