Chapter Ninety-Eight: Soft Grinding and Hard Bubbles
Money can make ghosts grind, although as soon as the big tree of the Gu family fell, a group of monkeys ran all over the ground. Fortunately, Steward Zhou has been walking outside for many years, and with a mouth that can speak, everyone has posted a lot of benefits, and finally sealed everyone's ashes on the altar, just waiting to watch the time go up the mountain.
Although the young people who are willing to go out of the mountain early in the morning, especially those who carry so many ashes, anyone who thinks about it will be hairy. Fortunately, there are also the four King Kongs of Zhou Wu, Zhou Yin, Afu and Acai, barely counting Mr. Hu and Nanshan, as well as Sanshunzi, which can make up enough people.
Thinking that after dawn, the matter would be over, and he would leave Yunluo Village as promised. Ran Ran didn't have any regrets, she just felt that these days were like a dream, a dream longer than her previous twenty years.
Ran Ran walked up to Steward Zhou and smiled at him, everything the Zhou family has done these days, Ran Ran has seen it in her eyes. Their feelings for the Gu family are either fake, or she, the nominal daughter-in-law of the Gu family, will be lazy, but each of them is like being beaten with chicken blood, and they just hate it.
However, the more this is the case, the greater the doubts in Ranran's heart. "Steward Zhou, can I talk to you?"
Steward Zhou hurriedly put down the matter in his hand, got up and gave Ran Ran, "The lady has something to do, just give orders." Like Ranran, Steward Zhou has long been impressed by the girl in front of him, and now every word of Ranran, he is respectful and dutiful, and he does not dare to slack off.
Ran Ran handed a few yellowed pieces of paper in his hand to Steward Zhou, seeing that his expression was solemn, and the corners of his mouth were unconsciously curved: "Here are a few deeds of sale, which belong to your family and Sanshunzi, and I will hand them over to you." ”
"Lady, what do you mean by that?"
Steward Zhou naturally didn't dare to reach out to pick it up, he looked at Ran Ran suspiciously, not understanding the meaning of this move. The Zhou family has been the son of the Gu family for several generations, how can this deed of sale be said to be given, it is inevitably too arbitrary.
Ran Ran didn't think so, in her opinion, a piece of paper has to bind a person for a lifetime, which is simply incredible. "The Gu family is gone, and I can't care about your eating and drinking if I leave you here, so I'll just let you go. I have burned everyone else's to them, hoping that they will be able to vote for a rich family in the next life. ”
Steward Zhou took a step back tremblingly, and refused: "The lady has a lot of compassion, but I can't ask for this." The ancestors of our Zhou family have been serving the master of the Gu family for four generations, and to put it bluntly, we have long regarded the Gu family as our own home. As the saying goes, dogs don't think their families are poor, and sons don't think their mothers are ugly, and we won't leave because of the trouble of the Gu family. ”
The first time she heard someone who would rather be a slave than be free, Ran Ran couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
However, she just wanted to sell her favor to Steward Zhou. Ran Ran knew in her heart that the current Gu family couldn't restrain anyone, even if it was a child like Steward Zhou, if he really wanted to leave, she would be helpless. It's better to take the initiative to sell personal favors, and if you let him do something in the future, it will be smoother.
Ran Ran stuffed the deed of sale into Steward Zhou's hand, and said with a sincere expression: "I didn't ask you to leave, I just let you be more open-minded, return your free body, and it is convenient to walk outside." ”
"But ......" Looking at the yellowed white paper in his hand, Steward Zhou couldn't believe it, but his hands couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and he trembled slightly.
Seeing that he didn't push it back, Ran Ran also breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Since you regard the Gu family as your own home, I also treat you as an elder, since you are a family, there is no such etiquette, and there will be a lot of things that will trouble you in the future." ”
With a pop, Steward Zhou suddenly knelt on his feet and knocked his head with all his might, startling Ran. "The great kindness of the lady, I am unforgettable."
"Uncle Zhou, it's okay to call me Ranran in the future." Ran Ran hurriedly helped him up, seeing that he was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes, she rolled her eyes and said softly: "By the way, Uncle Zhou, you should know who the Gu family has offended." ”
Steward Zhou wiped his tears for a moment, glanced at Ran Ran from the corner of his eyes, was shocked, and muttered in a low voice: "How would I know." ”
Ran Ran didn't miss his slight consternation, and deliberately asked: "Since the Zhou family has served the Gu family for so long, don't you know why grandmother moved to Yunluo Village in the first place?" "Every time Ran Ran said a word, Steward Zhou's body was stalemate, and the sweat behind him was like rain." And what kind of forces can make the county government dare not interfere, does the county master not even know the identity of the master, or is the identity of the other party much higher. ”
knew that Ran Ran couldn't let him go so easily, but thinking that Ran Ran actually saluted first and then soldiers, and used the deed of sale as bait, which made Steward Zhou a little dilemma.
He secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead in an attempt to get by. "Lady, this kind of thing is not something that I can know so much as a subordinate."
Ran Ran raised her eyebrows, her tone was full of complaints, she took such a big risk, not just to whet the appetite of this old fox. Although there is no guarantee that Steward Zhou will definitely buy her account, he can't let him be so fooled.
"Uncle Zhou, you just said that you would treat the Gu family as your own, and now it's not good to say this. When the Gu family encounters such a big thing, you really plan to sit idly by. In case Zhou Wu or Zhou Yin met with the master, you didn't think about avenging them? Ran Ran paused deliberately, and then sneered: "In other words, the enmity of the family is far less important than his name." ”
Steward Zhou sighed heavily, he knew that he was not so easy to fool the past this time, but he still said sincerely: "Lady, you don't have to force me, I can understand your feelings, but this matter is really not something that you and I can solve." ”
Listening to the tone a little loose, Ran Ran hurriedly chased after it: "So you still know something?" ”
"Yes." Steward Zhou had no choice but to nodded, "I promised the old lady that I would never mention these things again, since the old lady didn't want to tell you, I could only keep it a secret." ”
Finally, the big fish was willing to bite the hook, how could she let go casually, "How do you know that grandmother doesn't want to say it, maybe she just thinks I'm too young, maybe she really wants to say it, and it turned out to be like this." Uncle Zhou, if you still recognize me as a lady, then what are you going to hide from me, if you don't trust each other, I won't force it, and when this matter is over, your Zhou family can leave at any time. ”
Steward Zhou smiled bitterly, looking at Ranran's innocent and immature face, in fact, he also had a lot of reluctance and partiality: "Ranran lady, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that you could have lived a peaceful life in this paradise, why bother to know so much, there are not many places like Yunshan now." ”
However, these words made Ran Ran even more restless, and she finally got a helpless voice from Steward Zhou: "Since you insist on asking, I will tell you." ”
