Chapter 59: Gu Cheng's Ambition
Gu Bei raised his eyebrows proudly, "How is it, it tastes good, right?" ”
"Well, it's delicious." Cheng Xiaoyi and Qing'er stuffed their mouths bulging, and nodded to indicate that it was delicious.
The two women's mouths kept on and soon a string of meat entered their stomachs, seeing Gu Bei's smug smile, the two girls couldn't help but be a little shy, it was the first time they were so eager to eat. This meat skewer does taste good, hum, it's all to blame on the brother-in-law (aunt), it makes a fool of people.
Everyone's definition of happiness is different, and for Gu Bei now, the happiest thing is that the barbecued meat is recognized by the three of them and the effort is affirmed. Seeing that they were eating, Gu Bei continued to grill the meat skewers.
"Brother-in-law, do you really believe in your cousin Gu Cheng! What if he deceives you then? With the meat skewers in hand, Cheng Xiaoyi remembered the group of splashes before and asked in a loud voice.
Gu Bei paused, and the fan scratched his itchy neck, "How is it possible, I just believe fifty percent, and the rest depends on his follow-up, even if he deceives me, so what?" I don't have anything to lose, I'm just dealing with a rich man, from the dark to the light, and I don't want to trouble Luo Shi and use the Baifu relationship. ”
Gu Bei shook the mutton skewer in his hand and winked at Cheng Xiaoyi. Cheng Xiaoyi rolled her eyes, and suddenly her charm was infinite. This brother-in-law, it is true that he is extraordinary, but sometimes he has a style of acting that makes people scratch his head, just a small landlord, as for such a big fight, a waste of time, as long as he goes to the county government to show his identity, I believe that these county lords know how to deal with it, and when the time comes, I believe that this landlord is okay and becomes something. What's more, Gu Cheng also said that this rich man secretly did a lot of things that hurt nature and reason.
Of course, Cheng Xiaoyi didn't stop her, she just thought that Gu Bei wanted to have some fun, if Gu Bei could rely on her own ability and not rely on the relationship between the government and the government to bring down this rich man, it would be not bad, she should watch a show, if it really didn't work, she wouldn't mind helping her brother-in-law.
"That brother-in-law, you have to perform this scene well, don't smash it, Xiao Yijing watched her brother-in-law turn over the clouds and rain and solve the rich man."
As she spoke, Cheng Xiaoyi smiled playfully. This brother-in-law is really a weirdo, and he deserves to be the man who makes Miss Ben's heart move.
Gu Bei shook his head, he could turn the clouds and rain, but he just didn't want the people in Gujia Village who gave birth to him and raised him to be oppressed by Gu Youqian.
The four of them sat by the bonfire in the courtyard, and at this time, several people put down their reserve and disguise, holding mutton skewers in their hands, and feasted on them. The bright moon and starry sky, in the silent courtyard, two men, two women, and a bonfire with green smoke next to it, a simple and warm picture.
Early in the morning, Gu Bei was exercising in the courtyard, propping himself on the ground and doing push-ups in the 21st century, at this time, behind Gu Bei, there was a sound of footsteps, and he said in a low voice: "Uncle, those splashes have been escorted to the county office." ”
When the words fell, a figure walked to Gu Bei's side, looking at Gu Bei's movements curiously, and I also heard that my uncle ran every day in Baifu, doing this push-up, and exercising.
"Oh, how to say it." Gu Bei propped up his body and looked back at Xiao Ran, this Xiao leader came over early in the morning, it shouldn't just be a report, something must have happened.
"It's nothing, just a little change." Xiao Ran smiled and said: "I really let my uncle guess correctly, when I escorted those splashes to the county office, the people guarding the door in front of the county government were also very lazy, and they complained at first, and refused to accept a little thing, and waited until the people under him took out the Baifu door number, and after they saw it, they were willing to accept those splashes." ”
"Hmm." Gu Bei stood up, wiped the sweat stains on his body with a towel, and nodded. I didn't expect to escort a group of murderous pimpies, and the county government actually regarded it as a trivial matter, and had to take out the Baifu door number before accepting it, which shows how corrupt these officials are, I only heard about it before, but I didn't expect to see it this time.
Whether the government is incompetent, or the collusion between officials and businessmen, Gu Bei can't manage these things, and he doesn't have the ability to manage them, he didn't want to use the Baifu relationship, but now he still uses it. If there is no Guogong Mansion, it is estimated that he Gu Bei is nothing, even if he makes a lot of money, he is still a lowly businessman at the bottom, Gu Bei shook his head self-deprecatingly.
"Uncle, I also think that Miss Xiaoyi is right, there is no need to rack her brains for a rich man, since there is evidence of these crimes, as long as the Guogong Mansion comes forward, it can still be found out after a check." Xiao Ran didn't understand his uncle, he obviously had the power but didn't use it, he preferred to check it himself, is this the bad taste of the big guy?
"Moreover, uncle, you only rely on that Gu Cheng to secretly find out the news, how long will it take, five days? Half a month? Or even a month? You also stayed in Gujia Village for a few days, and when you left, it was not the people of Gujia Village who suffered. Since it has been done, then hit the snake and hit seven inches, and I can't give him time to breathe, of course, the small ones are some of my own opinions, and the most important thing is that you decide, uncle. Xiao Ran said unhappily.
After listening to Xiao Ran's words, Gu Bei didn't reply, and fell into deep thought, was it really wrong? What Xiao Ran said was not wrong, if Gu Youqian's matter could not be resolved in the past few days, he would return to Fucheng at that time, so far away from Gujia Village, he would not be able to take care of what happened.
It is estimated that now Gu Youqian already knows that the splashes were escorted to the county office, and a few splashes are harmless to him, as long as he has money, he is afraid that no one will be there, but he just tells Gu Bei that this Gu Youqian is not so simple.
It stands to reason that a rich man in the countryside who has never seen the world will not have such a means, do things without leakage, and can pick himself cleanly, it seems that the key problem is still on this housekeeper, as long as this housekeeper can confess, it is estimated that this Gu Youqian will not be able to make any big waves.
I just don't know if Gu Cheng can say that this housekeeper has spoken.
Forget it, don't think about it, Gu Bei stretched his waist, smelled the fragrance of breakfast, felt hungry, smiled at Xiao Ran next to him, and said: "Old Xiao, I understand these, you and the brothers have worked hard, come early in the morning, I guess we haven't had breakfast yet, let's go, let's have breakfast together." ”
The two of them came to the old table of the Eight Immortals and sat down, and the table was full of sumptuous breakfasts, all of which were made by the cook who had brought them.
Gu Bei beckoned Xiao Ran and Qing'er to eat, as for Cheng Xiaoyi, it is estimated that he is still asleep in his dreamland? The Cheng brothers received a letter from home and asked them to rush back, and after entrusting their sister-in-law to him early in the morning, they hurried home without saying hello to Xiaoyi.
What else did Brother Gu say, they were relieved and so on, and I heard Gu Bei and I smiled bitterly and shook my head.
When the group of three was quietly eating breakfast, a voice came in from outside the courtyard.
"Brother Bei, my brother is here, hey, you are having breakfast! It just so happened that I didn't eat it, but I ate it, hehe..."Walking into the courtyard, Gu Cheng saw two men and a woman eating breakfast, smiled and said hello, and picked up the fritters on the table and took a bite without slowness.
Gu Cheng was eating fritters, his eyes rolled, and he looked curiously at the beautiful girl next to him, it was not the woman who was yesterday, seeing this girl dressed up, he muttered secretly, I haven't seen him for two or three months, what did this northern brother do, not only was there a guard around him, not to mention the woman yesterday, even the maid who followed was so beautiful, could it be that the northern brother really became the son-in-law of a powerful family? Look at this girl's eating posture is so elegant and calm, it is even more like a young lady than the daughter of the rich man Jia in the county, no, no, it is estimated that the daughter of the rich man Jia is not as good as the maid next to Brother Bei.
"Brother Bei..."
Gu Cheng smiled at the maid who looked at him curiously, and just as he was about to speak, he stopped his words with Gu Bei's eyes. Secretly surprised in his heart, he has only seen him for a few months, this northern brother has changed really much, just skimming his eyes, with a majesty, this majesty He was still fortunate to follow Gu Youqian to the county office, and he saw it in those officials. In his heart, he was even more determined that he must do a good job of what Gu Bei explained this time, and hugged his cousin's big thick legs, so that he would not have to stay in Gujia Village, where birds don't, in the future.
Unexpectedly, after eating a meal, Gu Cheng's mood changed, from his previous desire to build a house with Gu Bei's 1,000 taels of silver to marry his daughter-in-law.
