Chapter 371: It's hard to protect yourself

The county magistrate turned his head and asked Gu Mingzhu, "Is what this old man said true?" ”

Master Gu stared at Gu Mingzhu nervously, hoping that she could say yes for the sake of her ancestors and grandchildren. So he can get away with it

How could Gu Mingzhu get his wish? She has endured them long enough, and if she doesn't give some punishment to the people in the old house, they will never learn to be good.

"Back to the county magistrate, whether what my grandfather said is true, just ask my grandmother, presumably in front of the county magistrate, grandmother will not lie, even if grandmother lies, there are so many onlookers, they can also testify." Gu Mingzhu said unhurriedly.

When Mrs. Gu heard that she was going to come out to speak, she was even more frightened and shrank back, and hurriedly shook her head and said, "I don't know, I didn't say anything......." ”

Gu Jinkang glanced at Mrs. Gu with a complicated expression, Mrs. Gu was ugly, and he was not happy in his heart, but this incident alarmed the government, and there was no room for turning around.

The county magistrate shouted at Mrs. Gu, "You woman, you really have bad intentions, otherwise, what are you weak in?" If you want to fool your own official, I'm afraid it's not that easy. You don't say yes, do you! Someone! Give me a slap in the face until she's willing to speak. ”

The two servants stepped forward viciously to drag Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu has always been high and pampered at home, and she is used to being pampered, so after seeing this meeting, she was so ashamed that she was going to be slapped in front of so many people, she was so ashamed that she was going to be beaten, and her old face was lost.

When the two officials held her, they were already panicked, and shouted at Master Gu, "Master save me, I don't want to be beaten!" ”

But Gu Lao himself is difficult to protect, and he has the ability to save her.

could only watch the two officials slap her mouth, and before Mrs. Gu could react, some officials pressed her to the ground and slapped her face fiercely

Mrs. Gu screamed, and the servant's hand became heavier, and Mrs. Gu's teeth were knocked down along with the blood.

Mrs. Gu is really scared, if she continues to fight, her old life will be confessed here, and she hasn't enjoyed the glory of Gu Minghui yet?

"Lord Prefectural Order...... Other...... Stop it. I said, I'll confess. "I knew that the county order would punish Master Gu after the confession, but at this time, Mrs. Gu couldn't care so much.

"Stop, let her speak." The county commander waved his hand and signaled the two officials to stop fighting, he just wanted to teach this old woman a lesson, at the old woman's age, if she was really going to die, he would not be able to deal with him.

As soon as the two officials let go, Mrs. Gu sat on the ground, telling the old Gu family how they wanted to take the store for themselves, pouring beans from the bamboo tube, and saying it all in one go, and they didn't dare to hide it at all.

After Mrs. Gu finished speaking, the county order pointed at Mr. Gu with an angry face, "Come on!" Give the official his mouth to see if he dares to talk nonsense in the future. ”

This old man Gu is really hateful, he lied to his face, is he really a fool?

In fact, the county order didn't know, the old Gu family had become accustomed to slandering Gu Mingzhu, and everything was said to the side that was beneficial to him, and in the face of the county order, Master Gu didn't think to change his words for a while, so he said it so naturally.

No one confronted him before, and Gu Mingzhu didn't dare to argue with his grandfather, the head of his family, what he said?

Now in front of the county order, it's not up to him to have the final say, even if he wants to change his words, it's too late.

So, like Mrs. Gu, Master Gu was also pressed to the ground and slapped more than a dozen times by the servants, and his old face didn't know whether he was beaten or ashamed, and it was so red that it was dripping blood.

The county order saw that the fight was almost over, so people stopped, and reprimanded, "If you commit it again next time, you will be severely punished." ”

Poor Master Gu is a lot older, not to mention being beaten, he has to kowtow obediently, "The grass people won't dare next time." ”

After this fight, the county order also ordered the old Gu family to compensate twenty taels of silver, which was counted as a loss to the store, because Gu Mingzhu said that they had affected the business of the store.

The old Gu family came to the town this time to lose their wives and soldiers, and when they went back, they were all cowardly, which was in stark contrast to the high-spirited when they came.

Presumably, after going back this time, I will never dare to make waves again.

After the crowd dispersed, the county commander ran to Gu Mingzhu, "The young lady is still satisfied with the case of the lower official." ”

Gu Mingzhu smiled, "The adult acts impartially, the little woman is naturally satisfied, I will tell the general that the adult is worthy of this parental official." ”

When the county order heard this, his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, "Then bother the young lady to say a few more kind words in front of the general on behalf of the lower official, and the lower official is grateful, and if the young lady has a place to get the lower official in the future, just open her mouth." ”

Gu Mingzhu smiled and didn't make a sound.

This officialdom is just a matter of mutual benefit.

The county magistrate said goodbye to Gu Mingzhu, and went back to the county office with a group of people.

After the county order, the people who were jealous of Gu Mingzhu's good business and wanted to make some small moves to make trouble all stopped thinking about it, this little girl's backstage was a little hard, otherwise how could this little matter come in person.

And Gu Mingzhu insisted that Yunchi call the county order, which also contained the meaning of using the hand of the county order to deter others.

After dealing with the affairs of the store, looking at the little vegetables left in the store, Gu Mingzhu shook his head with a wry smile If there was no one from the old Gu family to make trouble, these vegetables would have been sold long ago, and it seems that they can only be sold tomorrow. I'm afraid there is no business anymore.

"Let's go when the store is closed!" Gu Mingzhu said to Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ling looked at the remaining vegetables, and was very angry that the old Gu family was unreasonable.

Living in the same village, I only knew that Gu Mingzhu was often beaten and scolded by Mrs. Gu, but I didn't expect them to be so excessive, and now in the town, they all treat Gu Mingzhu like this, scolding when they say they say they will scold them, and they will beat them when they say they will beat them, so if they are at home, maybe how can they torture her?

Seeing Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu being beaten today, I deserved it in my heart!

I pity Gu Mingzhu very much in my heart, how much grievance has she suffered?

After locking the door of the store, Gu Mingzhu took a few people and walked towards Gu Jinkang's ox cart, which delivered vegetables in the morning and carried people back in the evening, so it was bought in time.

Gu Jinkang liked this new ox cart very much, every time he cleaned the ox cart, and the cattle were well fed, he hurried up to throw off his hooves and ran straight, which was not much slower than the carriage.

Gu Jinkang lost his previous interest in driving the cart today, and sat in front of the ox cart with the whip in his hand pumping one after another.

Li Yanpin looked at him worriedly, although Mrs. Gu and Master Gu were contemptuous of their second room, but today Mrs. Gu and Master Gu were beaten, Gu Jinkang was very distressed in his heart, after all, blood is thicker than water.

Gu Mingzhu looked at Gu Jinkang, and sighed in his heart, some things have to be figured out by himself, and he really can't help himself?
