270. Persuasion

The prodigal son said: "I invested a lot of money, and when I saw Steward Zhou, he also felt that you couldn't be blamed for that incident." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Gu Xiang was so aggrieved that she was about to cry. Who would have thought that the grandmothers in the back house would invite a mountain bear child to treat the disease? What's more, that bear child was very trusted in a short period of time, and now he has to pick up dung and grow vegetables for him!

The prodigal son took advantage of the situation and hugged Gu Xiang and said, "It's okay, Steward Zhou has promised to let you go back to the city." ”

Gu Xiang even forgot to break free when she heard this, raised her face and asked, "Really?" ”

The prodigal son hugged Gu Xiang tightly, pecked her face, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it's true!" I gave him my life savings before I asked him to nod his head and promise. ”

Gu Xiang's face was flushed, and she said softly: "Then sister, I want to reward you well." ”

The prodigal son laughed, wishing that he would accomplish good things with the sky as a curtain and the earth as a seat. However, he remembered the purpose of his visit, and forcibly endured the evil fire in his heart, so he said: "But Steward Zhou can't swallow Xu Xiaole's breath, and he doesn't accept your grandmother's indiscriminate favoritism towards outsiders." ”

Gu Xiang's body stiffened: "What if you don't accept it?" "There seems to be some foreboding.

The prodigal son said, "Just kill him." He still had a smile on his face, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Gu Xiang was startled and broke free from the arms of the floating prodigal son: "What did you say! Can you do such a thing as murder? ”

The prodigal son looked disapproving, and said: "Killing, hehe, what's the difference between killing pigs and dogs?" Some people are not as good as pigs and dogs. He saw that Gu Xiang looked frightened, and said, "Okay, don't worry, Steward Zhou has a bigger relationship in this matter, he has a belly case, is there still less people to do?" If I hadn't spent the money, I wouldn't have been able to find a way out if you wanted to submit this petition. ”

Gu Xiang's face was entangled, and this clearly meant that if she didn't submit this nomination, Manager Zhou would not transfer her back.

She recalled the days spent in the mountains, which seemed to others to be nothing more than the life of an ordinary peasant woman, and there was no cruelty, but for her it was the most painful time in her memory. I don't know how many nights, she fell asleep with tears in her eyes, and would rather go back to Gusu City to dig dung pits and wash the latrine.

But killing ......

Gu Xiang shook his head heavily: "I can't get that hand!" ”

The floating prodigal son pressed Gu Xiang's shoulder and grinned: "After all, people are stronger than pigs and dogs, we don't need knives to kill people." ”

Gu Xiang still shook his head heavily: "Then I can't do it!" ”

The prodigal son sighed and said, "If I can go in, I can't wait to help you do it." It's very simple, and it's not just a small 'oversight'. ”

Gu Xiang was stunned: "What negligence?" I'm a girl from a house, no matter what negligence happens, it's impossible to kill someone. ”

The prodigal son said: "Yes, yes. ”

Gu Xiang was very puzzled, and said: "Don't talk about me, everything enters the second gate, and the people inside have to be checked and disposed of again, and there is no negligence like you said." ”

The prodigal son raised his head and laughed twice: "If you are willing to do it, the job that Steward Zhou has obtained for you is to be responsible for delivering wine." ”

Gu Xiang thought for a while: "Yes, the drinks in the inner house are sent in from the outer house, but how can I 'negate' the law?" ”

When the prodigal son heard Gu Xiang ask this, he knew that Gu Xiang had loosened the "shackles" in his heart. In the end, there is a huge difference between "negligence" causing death and murder. In order to be able to go back, although Gu Xiang can't take the initiative to kill, it is still acceptable to be "negligent".

The floating prodigal son said in a low voice: "You don't know the time on the mountain, the New Year is coming soon, don't the Gu family eat New Year's wine?" ”

"Eat." Gu Xiang replied casually, still puzzled in her heart.

The prodigal son looked at Gu Xiang teasingly and whetted her appetite.

The New Year's wine that Suzhou people say is what people often call Tusu wine. Because the name "Tu Su" is a bit unlucky, most people in Suzhou like to say "New Year's wine". In fact, Tu Su has nothing to do with slaughter, but the Han Dynasty used Tu Su to refer to Caolu, and the so-called Tu Su wine is a kind of medicinal wine passed down from Caolu.

As a legend, the grass house naturally needed an owner, so it was put on Hua Tuo's head. Legend has it that this miracle doctor used a variety of herbs to make wine before the end of the year, and then let everyone drink this medicinal wine on New Year's Day to achieve the effect of strengthening the body and driving away evil spirits. It is said that if you drink Tusu wine, you will not suffer from the plague for a whole year.

Because of Sun Simiao's promotion, this trend spread in the land of China, so that in the north, south, east and west, there is a custom of drinking Tusu wine on New Year's Day. This is true in Beijing, Nanjing, and Suzhou is no exception.

Gu Xiang couldn't think of anything to do with the old wine, so he couldn't help but urge: "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”

Only then did the prodigal son say leisurely: "What kind of medicinal materials are used in the New Year's wine, do you know how to cut it?" ”

Gu Xiang shook his head: "I saw them wrapping a big bag in gauze and dipping it in wine, who knows what's inside?" ”

The prodigal son said: "Your job this time is to open the medicine bag and take a look, dial it, and then say, 'Okay, you can soak in wine'." If something goes wrong in the future, you confess your negligence, and who can do anything to you. ”

Gu Xiang hesitated: "But I don't know medicine, how can you send me to this position." ”

The floating prodigal son hugged Gu Xiang's waist: "This is the silver money to open the way." According to me, this is really not risky, if you are smarter, even negligence is justified: the medicine was sent from Changchun Hall, and the doctors and pharmacists over there are all veterans, who would have thought that it would go wrong? ”

Gu Xiang secretly said in his heart: It seems that the person who started it was in Changchun Hall.

She couldn't help but ask, "Who are you trying to poison by mixing poison in the wine?" ”

The prodigal son said: "On New Year's Day this year, the ancestor of the Gu family wants to receive Xu Xiaole, so naturally he will kill him." ”

Gu Xiang was puzzled: "That's not right, who knows who this wine is for?" ”

The prodigal son smiled: "You are embarrassed to say that you have done things in a big family, let me ask you: How to drink New Year's wine?" ”

"It's just that everyone gets together, starting from the young...... Gu Xiang suddenly woke up: "Yes, Xu Xiaole is the youngest, and he must be the first to drink." As soon as he drank it, he was poisoned, and the people behind him naturally wouldn't drink it. ”

The prodigal son smiled and groaned: "Do you think this method is foolproof? ”

Gu Xiang showed a hint of hatred in her eyes, and said, "If that's the case, I don't mind 'walking away' once." ”

The prodigal son smiled in his heart: this stupid woman really took the bait. The boss said it well, if she bluntly said that she wanted to kill Brother Bao'er, she would definitely refuse. tricked her into poisoning Xu Xiaole, and she didn't have so much resistance in her heart.
