Chapter 299: Portrait
"Yes." Gu Youzhi was a little nervous and excited, even if he was sitting, his hands were clenched all the time, but his words were at least very clear, "Lord Hui, Caomin's younger brother should be seven years old this year, he was abducted two years ago, when he was five years old, in Gu Bao Village. ”
"Gu Bao Village is far away from Jinshui Town, and it is relatively remote, mainly relying on Gu Baoshan, usually there are no outsiders to go, and the neighboring villages are not close, there are few people who don't know each other to come to the village, the day my brother was lost, I was not at home, and after finding that no one was there, I asked door to door, only to know that there were outsiders that day, and no one in the village had ever seen a couple, about forty years old, saying that they were looking for distant relatives."
"The people in the village saw them coming, but when they left, there were a few people when they left, no one noticed, but they were the most suspicious, I heard the description of the people in the village, and briefly described the portraits of the two of them, and asked all the places I could go in the past two years, but no one recognized them." Gu Youzhi's words were full of frustration.
"That's a portrait of both of them." Gu Youzhi opened the long bamboo tube of calligraphy and painting in his hand, took out the rolled picture quality and opened it.
"I revised this several times, and showed it to the villagers who had seen two people in the village to confirm it repeatedly, and finally settled on it." Gu Youzhi explained.
"This is a portrait of the grass man's younger brother, he was five years old, and I don't know if it has grown any now." Gu Youzhi explained that he was afraid of forgetting his younger brother's appearance, so he really painted when he was free, and painted when he was free, and he was most satisfied with this one.
The moment he saw the portrait, Qi Jiuli was a little surprised, because the painting was very good, and the character sketch was very upright.
"You've learned to draw before?" Xia Lunhai was also surprised.
"Nope." Gu Youzhi shook his head, "Maybe it's too much to draw." ”
Qi Jiuli felt a little sour in his heart, how many times did he have to draw this repeatedly before he could paint like this.
"You're doing a great job." Xia Lunhai originally thought that there was little hope, but Gu Youzhi was able to come up with such a portrait, it was a great help, and the hope of finding it was also great, if he could successfully catch the person with the portrait, it would be a rich sum of merit.
"I'll take the portrait first, and I'll let Chen Dade identify it tomorrow, and if there is news, I will definitely send it to the Qiuwei restaurant as soon as possible." Xia Lunhai said with a smile.
Gu Youzhi was very moved when he heard this, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and his voice was choked, "Thank you, my lord, the grass people will retreat first, and my lord, please try the signature dishes of our autumn restaurant." ”
"Okay, okay." Xia Lunhai didn't leave Gu Youzhi to eat, and he was not in the mood to think about it.
After Gu Youzhi left, the atmosphere in the room changed to eating, and with Yan Chengtao's invitation, everyone's eyes also turned to the two tables that were placed.
Eight cold dishes have been placed on the table in the private room, all the drinks in the Qiuwei restaurant have been served, Yan Chengtao poured wine for Xia Lunhai and his party, and Qi Jiuli got sweet soup.
With Xia Lunhai, who would let Qi Jiuli drink.
"Jiuli, is Master Guo okay?" Xia Lunhai looked at Qi Jiuli with a smile and asked.
"The body is very tough." Qi Jiuli said with a smile, "The people in Guo Mansion are very kind, we didn't do anything, they took good care of us, and we went to Fucheng last time thanks to Guo Mansion's help." ”
When Xia Lunhai went back last time, he asked people to go to Fucheng to inquire about the situation of Qi Jiuli's family and Guo Mansion, although they are peasant families, but his brother is only fifteen years old and has already won Xiucai, and he is still the top of the list, and his future is limitless.
I didn't inquire about the intersection between their family and Guo Mansion, but when they were in Fucheng, Guo Mansion and Wei Mansion inquired about their dealings with them, and it can be said that they were really very close.
also heard about the matter between Wu Yaozu and Qi Zhai, Guo Fu directly came forward to settle it, Xia Lunhai was happy when he thought about it, although Wu Yaozu responded in time, but it is difficult to say whether he can be promoted.
"Jiuli, come, I will give you a drink." Xia Lunhai raised his glass to Qi Jiuli, and Qi Jiuli hurriedly stood up.
"Eh, it's just a meal like your own family, why don't you pay so much attention, sit down." Xia Lunhai put one hand on Qi Jiuli's shoulder and pressed the person into position.
"This cup is to thank you for catching Chen Dade, I don't know how many people have been saved." Xia Lunhai said sincerely, "On behalf of Huaijin County, I would like to express my deep gratitude to you. ”
Qi Jiuli didn't know who Chen Dade was, but when he heard the words behind him, he knew what to expect, and the flower boy opened his mouth to explain, "The kid happened to be passing by, and the kid said that he didn't know him, so he took care of it." ”
"Well done." Xia Lunhai praised, "Not everyone has the courage to meddle with this matter, that Chen Dade is tall and strong, where is his opponent in ordinary people, I didn't expect you to be young and kung fu in Jiuli." ”
Xia Lunhai originally listened to Qi Jiuli's words and felt that others had made a big effort, but when he interrogated Chen Dade before, he knew that it was Qi Jiuli who subdued him, and he only used three moves.
"Actually, it's a trick." Qi Jiuli said embarrassedly, "The kid knows some superficial acupuncture points, and pressing them is more effective than ordinary moves, otherwise where is the kid's little arms and legs...... Chen Dade's opponent. ”
"Oh, I didn't expect Jiuli to understand medicine?" Xia Lunhai was more and more surprised.
"I don't understand." Qi Jiuli waved his hand and vetoed, "I just know a few acupuncture points, and hitting or pressing harder will make my hands and feet paralyzed for a short time." ”
"Which acupuncture points?" Qi Jiuli heard the sound and looked at Gangzi, who was sitting opposite him, and asked, "I am very interested in martial arts, and I have practiced diligently, but I can't guarantee that I will win Chen Dade within three moves, I don't know if the little master of Jiuli can give me some advice." ”
Qi Jiuli raised his right eyebrow slightly and said, "Now? ”
Gangzi reacted and hurriedly got up and hugged his fist towards Qi Jiuli, "It's me who is abrupt, little master Jiuli, please eat first." ”
"Well, I don't mind if I eat or not now, if Uncle Xia and you think it's feasible, anyway, it's just a few tricks, I don't care." Qi Jiuli looked at Xia Lunhai and said with a smile.
Xia Lunhai's eyes brightened more and more as he looked at Qi Jiuli, if this kid takes a career in office, he should be able to play at ease in the officialdom in the future, he is too good at doing things, and he also knows who the most face-giving person at the table is.
"Jiuli, I'm sorry, my subordinate hardly speaks on weekdays, only in martial arts, if it's convenient for you, you can point him out." Xia Lunhai values Gangzi the most, he got up and asked Qi Jiuli for advice, he really can't bear to ignore it as a chief.
"I can't talk about pointing, I just know a few tricks to protect myself." Qi Jiuli looked at Gangzi after speaking, "We're in the house?" ”
"Done." Gangzi nodded.
