Chapter 68: Night Talk

In the dark room, an oil lamp emitted a faint light to light up the surroundings, Gu Bei sat on a stool, holding a thread-bound book in his hand, motionless... I don't know where to fly in my thoughts, I see Qing'er next to me laughing for a while, and I don't know what my uncle is thinking, and I don't even know if I take the book backwards...

Qing'er stood aside and looked at her uncle in a daze, smirking, remembering the scene when her uncle sent him flowers, a burst of sweetness surged in her heart, and she muttered, it turns out that her uncle is not a wooden mile...

In the silent room, a man and a woman, sitting and standing, each thinking about their own thoughts. I don't know how long it took, the oil light became weaker and weaker, Qing'er first came back to her senses, saw that her uncle was still thinking, cautiously walked into the table, fiddled with the flames, and saw that after the fire was lit, she didn't bother her uncle, and quietly took the door and went out.

After a while, a burst of footsteps mixed with noise came from far and near, Gu Bei woke up from his contemplation, put down the book in his hand, opened the door, and asked Qing'er who had just come out of the room, "Qing'er, what happened?" ”

After Qing'er came out of her uncle's room, she told her family not to let people disturb her uncle. Unexpectedly, not long after returning to the room, she heard a noise outside the courtyard gate, she was afraid of disturbing her uncle, so she hurriedly opened the door and prepared to go out to investigate, seeing that her uncle was also outside the door, she said apologetically: "I don't know what happened, uncle, I disturbed you to read, and the maid will go and see."

"It doesn't matter, how many times have I told you, don't call yourself a servant, we are a family." Gu Bei touched Qing'er's little head and said dotingly.

Qing'er's pretty face was slightly red when she was touched by Gu Bei, and she saluted her uncle and retreated.

Qing'er came to the gate of the courtyard and saw that Gu Cheng was arguing with a general, and asked another guard, "What happened?" I didn't tell you, my uncle is reading, don't let people disturb me. ”

The family general saw that it was the personal maid in front of the uncle, but he knew that this Qing'er was not only strong in martial arts, but also the eldest lady and the aunt treated her as a sister, and politely hugged her fists and said: "Miss Qing'er, this cousin of the uncle came to see the uncle late at night, and I will follow your instructions and not let him go to disturb the uncle, but this young master has been making a lot of noise and insisting on seeing the uncle, and there is something important to say that he will not leave, we are afraid of disturbing the uncle... So just..."

After listening to the ins and outs, Qing'er smiled at this famous general, what a big deal it is, and said with a smile: "You go and ask your uncle and cousin to come over!" ”

Seeing that Qing'er was so easy to speak, the family general smiled at him, this smile was really like a hundred flowers blooming, and the old face was red and cramped: "Yes, yes..."

After a while, Gu Cheng was brought to the front, Qing'er looked at Gu Cheng with beautiful eyes, she knew that this splashy person also teased Miss Xiaoyi yesterday, and she didn't have a good face for him, thinking that if it wasn't for her uncle who still used him, she would have asked the family to kick him out.

"What's the matter with your uncle? Tell me about it! I'll convey it to my uncle for you. Qing'er spoke lightly, unable to hear joy and anger.

Gu Cheng saw that Qing'er was looking at him, his eyes didn't dare to look around, he lowered his head, bowed his head and said politely: "Madam... Ah, no, Miss Qing'er, I have something important to meet Brother Bei in person, please help inform me. ”

Madam? She's old? Whose Lady is it?

Qing'er's eyes froze, she stared at him tightly, her red lips opened lightly, and she said, "What did you just call me?" ”

Gu Cheng raised his head and quickly glanced at Qing'er, lowered his head and replied honestly, "Miss Qing'er." ”

"Previous."

"Husband... Madame, is that a sentence? ”

"Why do you call me Madame? Am I old? ”

Gu Cheng stood with his head down, did not speak, and said in his heart, what are you pretending, she is not going to warm the bed for Brother Bei in the future, thinking so in her heart, she doesn't dare to show up, in case she goes to Brother Bei's to blow the pillow wind, it will be bad.

"What, can't you answer?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Qing'er asked reluctantly, if you don't tell me, don't want to see your uncle today.

Seeing that she was pressing step by step, Gu Cheng decided to let it go, laughed dryly, and said, "Miss Qing'er, you will be my northern brother's person in the future anyway, this... Isn't this a title in advance ... After finishing speaking, he secretly observed out of the corner of his eye, and saw that Qing'er was not angry, and finally let go of his heart.

Will they all be uncle's people in the future?

Calling in advance?

Am I that obvious? I actually saw it all, could it be that my uncle also meant this when he sent her flowers? However, Madame... This advance call is very... Meaning, Qing'er thought shyly.

Qing'er smiled at the corner of her eyes, looked at Gu Cheng again, and felt that this splash was not too bad, she actually knew how to call her in advance, and knew that she was her uncle's pillow... The personal maid, knowing that pleasing her is not useless, no wonder his uncle wants him to do things.

Do you want him to scream a few more times? Forget it, let's keep it for later! Can't let her uncle wait for a long time, Qing'er turned around and walked towards the courtyard.

What's going on? Is this angry? Just left, Gu Cheng was dumbfounded.

Qing'er walked a few steps, saw that there were no footsteps behind her, looked back, and saw that Gu Cheng was still standing in place and stunned, and said, "Why are you still stupid?" Don't hurry up yet. After speaking, he twisted his waist and went to the courtyard first.

"Oh, oh." It was the first time Gu Cheng had seen a maid, and that momentum made him think it was the eldest lady of a family, following behind with his head down, looking at his nose and nose, and looking up, he could see the graceful figure in front of him, but he didn't dare...

Beidi is a person who does great things, and since he wants to follow Beidi to do great things, he can no longer have the previous style of acting as a splash. Otherwise, following Brother Bei is not still a splash, but the level of splashing is a little higher.

Qing'er took Gu Cheng to her aunt's room, took the teapot and prepared to go out to boil water, Gu Bei stopped her: "Qing'er, I've worked hard for you, you don't need to serve here, you go to rest first, don't make tea, otherwise you won't be able to sleep again." ”

"Uncle, rest early, and the maid will go down first." Qing'er understood that her uncle had something important to say, poured two bowls of boiled water on the table, and retreated with a smile.

"Brother Bei, you are so good to your maid!" Qing'er was there, he felt uncomfortable all over, and after seeing Qing'er withdraw, he sighed to Gu Bei with a smile.

Gu Bei chuckled, "Cousin, you haven't got married yet!" There can be a marriage. ”

Gu Cheng's face darkened, he was a famous pimp in Gujia Village, he was nothing in the county seat, his family had a small dilapidated house, and his land property was also lost by him, who wanted to marry his daughter to him, a scoundrel.

"Brother Bei, my brother only wants to help you do things well now, and the rest don't want to do it for the time being, why don't you have a wife." Gu Chengxu shook his head with a fan and said.

Gu Bei was secretly funny when he heard it, you are a scoundrel and still pretend to be a reader, but the idiom is not bad. That's it, for the sake of the deceased Gu Bo, after this is over, let's arrange an errand for him.

If he can pull a handful, it will be up to him to create it himself.

"Brother Bei, the good thing you explained has been done." Gu Cheng lowered his voice and said in surprise, after speaking, he looked left and right with his eyes, took out the account book from his arms and carefully placed it on the table.

Gu Bei took the account book, turning the pages one by one, Gu Cheng stared at Gu Bei's face and the account book, without blinking, for fear that this account book was not what Gu Bei wanted.

After two cups of tea, Gu Bei finished turning the last page, his face became more and more serious, and with a "bang" sound, his palm slapped the table.

In the silent night, the gatekeeper heard the noise, thinking that something was wrong, the two glanced at each other, and hurriedly trotted towards Gu Bei's room, just about to knock on the door to ask, Qing'er appeared from the dark and stopped them.

The two generals saw Miss Qing'er, knew that it was okay, and returned to the gate of the courtyard to continue to wait.

Gu Bei rubbed his aching hands vaguely, originally he thought that this Gu Youqian was just bullying men and women, in the fish and meat village, after reading this account book, these incriminating evidence are all small and cannot be smaller.

In just a few years, there have been no less than double digits of people who have died directly or indirectly in his hands, which can be said to be really damned... robbed the people's daughter, colluded with the government, and forced the victim's family to death, which really deserves to die. Smuggling of smuggled salt, iron ingots... It can be said that everything that can be done has been done, and what cannot be done has been done... I just don't know which officials who are covering him are involved.
