The winter night is long, and the evening breeze is cold, but Guo Jia Ganning, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, and the four tigers of the Xiao family drank heavily on the bow of the boat.

Gan Ning and Zhou Tai don't know each other, the two have similar spleens and surnames, and they are like-minded, and they only take the wine and talk as confidants for a while.

"Brother Youping, like you, from a humble background, since he was a child, he was looked down upon by the big families of the Shi clan, and he is determined to benefit the people, so that people from poor backgrounds like a certain can be fed and clothed. If Brother Youping also has this intention, why don't you go? Gan Ning held Zhou Tai's arm, his words were sincere, and his expression was sincere.

Zhou Tai patted the case, held Gan Ning's hand, and said eagerly: "Xingba, Xingba, those who know me, Xingba." I won't tell you the truth, I, Zhou Tai, have long been unable to bear the bullying of the people, and corrupt officials and corrupt officials are powerful. But now there is no way to serve the country, and there is no way to reassure the people. Gongyi and I had no choice but to rob the rich and help the poor on this river, first, to do some modest efforts for the people, and second, if there is a Ming Lord to find, we will devote ourselves to retribution. ”

Jiang Qin interjected and asked, "Could it be that Xingba has already found the master of the Ming Dynasty and wants to go to work?" ”

Gan Ning shook his head and sighed: "Since he Fengxiao left Yizhou, he has not seen a master who can rule the world in a peaceful world. However, after this trip to Yangzhou, a certain two people wanted to go north and go to Xuzhou to have a look. ”

After hearing this, Jiang Qin was slightly disappointed, Guo Jia saw his expression, and empathized with him, the children of the poor family have never met a talent, and they have a lot of volume, and when the master comes to find it, I don't know what year and month.

Raising his glass to Jiang Qinyi, Guo Jia said: "Brother Gongyi, at this extraordinary time, you must know that not only the king chooses the minister, but also the minister chooses the king, as the so-called good bird chooses the wood to perch, and the virtuous minister chooses the lord and serves. ”

Jiang Qin was excited, obviously moved, but after thinking about it, he still shook his head and said: "Youping can go with you, I still have hundreds of brothers to take care of, if I really find the master and pass the message to me, I will take my brothers to serve." ”

Guo Jia nodded, this Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's water thieves are not comparable to the Jinfan thieves, the Jinfan thieves are a group of young rangers gathered together, the number of people is not as good as the water thieves in the river, the water thieves are overwhelming, if no one leads them, good and evil are all in one thought.

Early the next morning, Zhou Tai took a few changes of clothes and said goodbye to the brothers, and went along the Jiangdong with Guo Jiaganning and his party.

Two days later, Guo Jia and his entourage went ashore in Lujiang County, changed horses and turned north, aiming at Xuzhou.

Walking to the vicinity of Anhui County, they suddenly saw a group of robbers looting the village, Guo Jia and the others naturally did not sit idly by, pulled out their swords and dismounted to kill.

Several people parted ways to chase and kill the robbers, and the sword was merciless, knowing the truth of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.

When the thieves were killed all the way, Guo Jia suddenly heard the cry of grief and the silver laughter of the robbers from a manor, and knew that something was wrong, so he rushed into the garden and found that the two robbers of the five big and three thick were dragging a girl in a white dress and a skirt towards the house.

Guo Jia, who was furious, shouted, and before the two thieves could react, he picked his sword at the neck, and the robber fell to the ground and died.

At this time, Guo Jia took a closer look at the two women, and saw two girls who were only twelve or thirteen years old pounced on the corpse of an old man in the garden and wept incessantly, but the appearance of the two of them made Guo Jia feel in a trance.

Beautiful as a jewel, light as a cloud of smoke. The eyebrows are like spring mountains, and the eyes are the same as autumn water. Tears wet and fragrant cheeks, but like pear blossoms with rain.

Guo Jia slowly walked to the two girls, took out a handkerchief from his body and handed it over, comforting: "The deceased is gone, the two girls should mourn and change." ”

One of the dignified and dignified girls between her eyebrows raised her head, took the handkerchief handed by Guo Jia, and wept: "Thank you for the grace of Gongzi for saving your life, if Gongzi didn't come to the rescue, my two sisters would be in the tiger's mouth." The little woman Da Qiao has seen Childe, this is my sister Xiao Qiao. ”

Guo Jia was dumbfounded: Da Qiao? Joe?

Looking at the cold old man with several knives in his body, could it be that he is Qiao Gong?

Calculate the time, this little Joe is only in his early tens, but how can he become an orphan?

Guo Jia felt a little guilty in his heart, he knew that this was the butterfly effect, the Taiping Dao chaos was originally a separate battle, but it became a desperate gamble after he offered a plan, and inadvertently, maybe the major events will not change, but the impact of the side details, he can't count it, and he doesn't bother to think about it.

Lying on his father's corpse, the grief-stricken little Qiao cried non-stop, suddenly shook his head, cried and fainted, Guo Jia's eyes were quick, and he reached out to hold it, but unexpectedly Xiao Qiao grabbed his clothes, Guo Jia couldn't break it, so he had to let her lie in his arms, and Da Qiao on the side saw his sister lying in the bad of the strange son, but he didn't see the son taking the opportunity to be light, so he put his mind at ease, returned to the house and took the straw mat to cover his father's body, and then introduced Guo Jia into the house.

After carrying Xiao Qiao into the boudoir of the two sisters, Guo Jia put Xiao Qiao on the couch, but still couldn't let her go, if she used force, she was worried that she would be hurt, so she smiled bitterly and said to Da Qiao: "If the girl is relieved, I will accompany Xiao Qiao here, and when she wakes up, I will leave." ”

"Childe has the grace to save my sister's life, and he is a humble gentleman, and he will not do anything wrong to my sister, so I will bother Childe for a moment." Although Da Qiao still has a sad look on his face, he is generally knowledgeable, polite and courteous, and he is even more intelligent to give Guo Jia a gentleman's high hat.

Guo Jia knew that Da Qiao was still wary of him at the moment, but he was helpless, after all, the two sisters were helpless.

After killing the robbers, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and the four tigers of the Xiao family searched for Guo Jia everywhere, and finally found traces in Qiao's house, so they entered Qiao's house, and after throwing the robber's body into the wilderness, they helped Da Qiao bury his father.

And Guo Jia, who was guarding in front of Xiao Qiao's window, could only support his head with one hand, staring thoughtfully at Xiao Qiao in his sleep.

Although the two sisters are still young, they already have the face of the country, and they will be the best in the world in the future.

And Da Qiao is dignified and elegant, Xiao Qiao is gentle and delicate, the country is fragrant, and each has its own strengths.

After driving for a long time and killing the robbers, Guo Jia was also a little tired, and unconsciously turned his head to sleep.

When he woke up and opened his eyes, he found a pair of eyes staring at him, looking at each other, Xiao Qiao turned his face away, and Sai Xue's skin appeared red.

"Girl, are you awake? Oh, in Xia Guo Jia, I didn't mean to be a beautiful woman, but there was a reason for it, please forgive me. Guo Jia must explain, otherwise people will misunderstand that he is a prodigal son, then it will be troublesome, and other reputations can be wanted, but Guo Jia doesn't want others to think that he is a shameless person, a man, you can be lustful, but you can't be lewd.

"Thank you, Childe, my sister has told me what happened, and it was I who caused Son's grievances." Xiao Qiao hurriedly let go of the hand holding Guo Jia's clothes, she had already woken up, but she only let go of her hand at this time.

After Guo Jia stood up and stretched his muscles, he looked at Xiao Qiao lying on the bed with a smile, and said gently: "Girl, your sister's father has passed away, please mourn and change, if there is anything you can help, but please speak up, Jia Li can do what he can, and he will never shirk." Say goodbye first, and you have a good rest. ”

Before leaving, Guo Jia personally pulled the quilt for Xiao Qiao, this action made Xiao Qiao cover himself with the quilt, turned around and faced inside, Guo Jia secretly blamed himself: Why do you always naturally regard the current relationship between men and women as the future generation? It's okay to pull a quilt for others, this must be a misunderstanding again!

When he walked out of the door, Guo Jia looked at Da Qiao, who had been standing outside the door for a long time, and then looked inside the house, knowing that Da Qiao was not at ease with himself, and said with some embarrassment: "Girl, just now I was just concerned about it, not intentionally frivolous, please forgive me." ”

Da Qiao shook his head slightly, and said with red eyes: "I have heard that you are the little prince of Yingchuan, Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, you treat the people well, and educate the children of the Han family, my sister has also heard of it in Yangzhou, the son is a benevolent and virtuous gentleman, and my sister can be saved by the son, it is a blessing." ”

Guo Jia and Da Qiao walked outside the house and asked with some emotion: "Girl, do your sisters still have relatives?" ”

Da Qiao shook his head in despair, then raised his head to look at Guo Jia and said in a low voice: "If the son doesn't dislike it, just call my sister's name." Now that my father has passed away, my sister is no longer related by blood. ”

Guo Jia hesitated for a moment and said, "Da Qiao, the world is uneasy, your two sisters are lonely, how should you face this difficult situation in the future?" ”

Da Qiao still shook his head and said in a low voice: "I plan to keep filial piety for my father, and after that, let's make plans." Da Qiao has a request, and he hopes that Childe will agree. ”

"Please." Guo Jia blurted out that he is a person who does what he says, but he will not shirk what he can do.

"Please take Xiao Qiao away from this place, if Gongzi does not give up, please be sure to protect Xiao Qiao for the rest of his life. Da Qiao is grateful, and he can't repay him, and every time he prays for his son, may God bless him with a long life. After Da Qiao finished speaking, he raised his face and looked at Guo Jia, his autumn eyes were like water, and he was sincere.

Guo Jia sighed and asked rhetorically, "Da Qiao, what about you?" ”

"Filial piety for my father, after three years, I will find a reunion with my sisters." Da Qiao's tone was resolute.

"No, sister, I will keep filial piety with you, I only have my sister left, and I will never be separated from my sister."

Xiao Qiao rushed out of the house, threw himself in front of Da Qiao, hugged her with tears streaming down his face, Da Qiao looked sad, but stroked his sister's hair and said softly: "Be obedient, leave with Guo Gongzi, he can protect you and will not let you be wronged." ”

Little Joe just shook his head, tears wetting Big Joe's shoulders.

When Guo Jia saw this scene, he stepped forward and persuaded: "Da Qiao, I know that you want to do your filial piety." I can assert that if I take men out of this place, and within half a month, you will be in trouble, and your two sisters will have the countenance of a country and a city, and if you are helpless, you will make evil intentions in the hearts of the wicked, and do you have the power to protect yourself? No. What should you do when disaster strikes? was succeeded by a gangster, and the happiness of your life was ruined, and you killed yourself to preserve your chastity? No matter what the result is, this is not what your father wants to see under the Nine Springs, although I am young, I also know that a father's greatest wish is the happiness of his children, not the difficulty of sitting in front of the grave. ”

"Childe, don't say it, don't say it" Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao hugged each other tightly, crying silently.
