Chapter 697: Tuo Gu
Qian Gui's heart was in turmoil at this time, his temples were beating and his brain was in a mess.
She reluctantly said to Hu Kui: "You go down, beckon the brothers to be cautious, and be vigilant tonight." Let me think about what we should do next. ”
Hu Kui was ordered to withdraw, and Qian Gui ordered Biwu to clean his face, changed out of his blood-stained shirt, and put on a half-used cloud brocade curtain with pine flowers and yellow, and then sat down on the Hu bed again.
After being silent for a long time, Qian Guifang asked the old housekeeper: "You just said that the two brothers were sent to Guangxi with the other men in the clan, when will they leave?"
The tears on the old housekeeper's face never dried, and he bowed his head and answered: "The old slave heard that he set off at the beginning of April, counting the time, and now he is about halfway through the trip." Poor two brothers have been honored and noble since they were children, how can they withstand this kind of tribulation, and they don't know that others in the clan may take care of them a little?"
Qian Gui sighed heavily: "It's better to ask for others than for yourself, the clan is the icing on the cake, how many of them can send charcoal in the snow? ”
Although she is a pampered daughter, Qian Gui is extremely transparent about human feelings, and does not report any hope to the clan, but has been trying to find ways to save herself.
She continued to say to the old housekeeper: "The two major crimes of the old man's greed for military salaries and participation in the rebellion are all conclusive evidence, and once he has confessed his guilt, he cannot be reversed. The Millennium Sect is now at the end of its power, Gu Chenxiao will not let them survive, and it is even more foolish to expect them to conquer the Gusu Imperial City. The facts that should be accepted must be accepted, with a few of us, we can't save the old lady at all, don't report those useless thoughts. ”
The door was heavily locked, and several people were relatively speechless, but they had to admit that Qian Gui's words were reasonable. The old housekeeper kept wiping his tears with his sleeve, knowing that none of what Qian Gui said was false, and the Qian family had been completely destroyed.
Seeing that there was only one man in the room, the old butler straightened his chest and asked, "If Miss has any ideas, you just have to give orders, and we will plan and plan." ”
Seeing that Tsing Yi had already brought the snow back, Qian Gui was in a state of confusion, leaned over to pick it up, and said calmly: "You all go down to rest now, let me think about it carefully, and we will discuss it tomorrow." ”
Lying on the cold and hard kang at night, Qian Gui thought about it and naturally had no sleep all night. When the sky was about to dawn, she made her final plans.
On that day, his father pinned all the hopes of the Qian family on himself, and now he must continue the incense of the Qian family no matter what, so as to live up to the burden given by his father that day.
Qian Gui opened the box and counted all his savings. Together with the ten gold bars that Biwu brought back this time, they barely made up the number of two hundred.
The huge Qian family is rich and rivals the country, and now the tree is falling and scattered, and these 200 gold bars are all the savings.
If it was left behind, this little thing was not enough for her mother to give her private house, how could she go to great lengths to worry about just 200 gold bars?
Qian Gui gritted his teeth, took five of them and put them away, divided the silver into three parts, and invited the old housekeeper, Biwu, Tsing Yi and Hu Kui to come in and talk together.
All the belongings were in front of him, and Qian Gui first pushed two of them in front of the old housekeeper, and gave the old housekeeper a deep blessing, so panicked that the old housekeeper hurriedly avoided it, and said again and again: "Miss, what are you doing? ”
Qian Gui said: "Old housekeeper, this money is not all for you. You, Biwu and Tsing Yi each have 10 sticks, which will be counted as early payment for the following months. Now that we only have so many people left, we still have to continue the Qian family. The three of you will leave for Guangxi tomorrow, take these gold bars, be sure to redeem the two brothers, divide the rest of the money equally among them, and take them to live a good life. ”
The old butler nodded in agreement, and put away the gold bars. Biwu and Tsing Yi were reluctant, and stepped forward to cry: "Girl, we are all gone, who will stay with you to serve?"
Qian Gui said calmly: "You two have been with me for many years, and they are all my confidants, don't you know which is more important now? I can't live without you? There are still two newly bought little girls outside, and there is no problem with serving my diet and daily life." ”
Biwu and Tsing Yi tearfully agreed, and retreated behind with the old housekeeper.
After handing over the last one to Hu Kui, Qian Gui said seriously: "Commander Hu, these sixty gold bars will be counted as my reward for you and your brothers in advance. You don't have to protect me now, but you have to protect the old butler, Biwu and Tsing Yi, help them redeem the two brothers together, and treat the two brothers as your new masters. ”
Although Qian Weizhen regards money as his life, he is extremely generous to his subordinates. Hu Kui has followed Qian Weizhen for many years, and he is naturally loyal. He glanced at the gold bars pushed by Qian Zhuo, only took a few of them, and put the rest back in their original places: "The Qian family is in danger, how dare the subordinates draw their salaries at this time? ”
Qian Gui smiled faintly, still pushed the rest of the gold bars to his hand, and said sincerely: "Commander Hu, they are all old and weak, women and children, and there will be more places to rely on you in the future." If you're willing to put it all away, I'll feel at ease. ”
Hu Kui's face was miserable, he knelt on the ground, raised his right hand and swore: "I, Hu Kui, will obey the girl's orders, and try my best to assist the two little masters for the rest of my life. ”
Qian Gui bowed with tears, helped him up, and said in a choked voice: "Why did Commander Hu make such a heavy oath, if I don't believe you, how dare I entrust you with all my heart, please hurry up, we have something to say later." ”
Hu Kui also wiped a handful of tears, put away the gold bars, and waited for Qian Gui to continue.
Tsing Yi burst into tears, and asked reluctantly, "When will that girl go to Guangxi to join us?"
Qian Gui muttered: "Not necessarily, I still have a small amount of money in my hand, and I still want to go east to Fusang according to our previous plan." Now that I'm alone, if I'm settled there, I'll be in touch with you. When the time comes, you take the two brothers to Fusang, and we can settle for once. ”
The old housekeeper, Biwu and Tsing Yi nodded frequently and obeyed her orders. Seeing Qian Gui's treatment like this, Hu Kui already understood that she was going to abandon her pawn to protect the handsome, sacrifice herself desperately, and save the two descendants of Qian Mansion.
Needless to say, she and her brothers protected each other all the way, and she couldn't go east to Fusang, and now she was the only one left to deal with the Millennial Sect. If she had a way to cross to Fusang in the east, she would have gotten rid of the bitter entanglement of the millennial sect.
Hu Kui felt sad, but he pretended not to see it, so he only patted his chest and replied loudly: "Don't worry, girl, I, Hu Kui, promise a thousand gold, and what I promised the girl will definitely be done." The safety of these people is on me and my brethren. ”
