56 Apologize

The two sides were at a stalemate for a long time, and the guys in the Rejuvenation Hall were all attracted to it.

There are only three people in the Rejuvenation Hall who know Gu Jiao's medical skills: the second owner, the shopkeeper Wang, and the old doctor.

Although the rest of the people often come to Gu Jiao, they only regard her as a family member of the patient.

The second owner and the shopkeeper Wang treated her very politely, and everyone only thought that her husband was a student of Tianxiang Academy.

Don't underestimate any scholar, the future squires, non-staff, and magistrates are likely to be them.

I just didn't expect her to do such a thing.

"I can't see that a person who is usually honest is a habitual thief."

"Yes, I stole other people's jade pendants, and I also stole other people's jade wrenches."

"I'll just say, she didn't come today, and she didn't need to take medicine, why did she enter the Rejuvenation Hall? You're eyeing that daughter, right? It's the one who chased in and stole something! ”

"She's not afraid of jeopardizing her father-in-law's reputation."

"Isn't it? It's really unlucky enough to have such a wicked woman in the scholar's stall! ”

Everyone present was afraid that except for the second owner, no one believed that Gu Jiao was innocent.

Isn't that obvious? She is so poor, how can she have such a good jade pendant?

"Miss, take the jade pendant." The little maid said, bowed down and hung the jade pendant on the girl's waist.

Gu Jiao reached out to take it.

"Bold!" The little girl's eyes were cold, and she raised her hand and gave Gu Jiao a slap.

However, before her slap landed on Gu Jiao's face, she was beaten down by Gu Jiao's backhand and ear scraper.

Everyone didn't know how Gu Jiao made a move, and when she reacted, the little girl was already lying on the ground, her cheeks swollen.

The girl was also stunned.

Gu Jiao stretched out her little hand, which was scarred by years of hard work, opened the girl's curtain, and pulled the jade pendant hanging from her waist.

During the whole process, Gu Jiao held her breath and didn't smell the incense powder on her body.

The girl looked at her with round eyes: "You...... Licentious! ”

A village girl in the countryside actually touched her with her hand!

After Gu Jiao took back the jade pendant, she didn't rush to put it into her purse, but took out a clean handkerchief from her arms and wiped the jade pendant up and down.

The girl's breath was stagnant.

This village girl...... Is it disgusting that she is dirty?

If Gu Jiao wants to respond to people, it must be all-round without dead ends.

The girl felt that her chest was blocked all of a sudden, and she was about to lose her breath.

The girl gritted her teeth and said angrily: "Report to me!" ”

"Who's going to report to the police?"

With a majestic but cold man's voice, the dean walked over with a stern expression.

There was another one that was not easy to mess with, and the guys of the Rejuvenation Hall gave way one after another.

The dean entered the house, looked at the girl who was so angry that she was smoking, and then looked at the maid who was lying on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up, and came to Gu Jiao's side as usual.

His position was evident from where he stood.

He turned around and looked at the girl without humility or arrogance: "Is this girl going to report to the official?" I don't know what happened to make the girl so angry? ”

His words were polite, but his tone was unkind.

The girl frowned and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The dean said, "I am the dean of Tianxiang Academy. ”

Girl: "Dean Li? ”

Dean: "Exactly. ”

Dean Li's name is thunderous in the capital, of course the girl can't have heard of it, don't look at Dean Li's retreat to the town to become a teacher, but his influence in the capital is still there.

The girl was polite to him, looked at Gu Jiao, and said, "She stole our family's things and didn't give them back to me." ”

"I didn't steal it, the jade pendant is mine." Gu Jiao can no longer care about the girl's opinion, but she cares about the dean's opinion, she is Xiao Liulang's wife, and she doesn't want to leave a stain on the dean's heart.

"What do you say about the jade wrench?" The girl asked.

"I accidentally fell into my sleeve pocket, and I found out when I got home." Gu Jiao told the truth.

The maid said angrily: "You didn't say that, you admit that you stole it!" ”

Look, that's why Gu Jiao is reluctant to explain to them, because they won't listen well at all.

"Show me the jade pendant." Dean Li said to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao handed him the jade pendant.

Dean Li remembered that the teacher also had an identical jade pendant, and remembered that the teacher had given Gu Xiaoshun a New Year's gift, and he probably understood what was going on.

This jade pendant was given by the teacher, as for whether it was given to Gu Jiao herself, or to Gu Xiaoshun, and Gu Xiaoshun was transferred to Gu Jiao, it didn't matter.

The important thing is that Gu Jiao definitely did not steal.

The teacher went into hiding, not wanting people to know where he was, so he naturally wouldn't move the teacher out.

He smiled faintly and said to the girl: "The girl is mistaken, this jade pendant is not yours, it was given to me by my teacher, and then I gave it to her husband." ”

She ...... Messire? The girl looked Gu Jiao up and down.

"She is my personal disciple." Dean Li unilaterally declared the sovereignty of the apprentice.

That said, it all makes sense.

Dean Li's mentor is the old sacrificial wine of the Guozijian, and he was deeply valued by His Majesty before he went into hiding, so it is not surprising that he will have palace things in his hands.

But the girl is still a little incredible, how many people in the capital want to worship Dean Li as a teacher, but they are all rejected by Dean Li, this little village girl is so poor and sour, she should be married to a poor boy from the countryside, how did she fall into Dean Li's eyes?

Just when the girl was suspicious, a guy from the Rejuvenation Hall ran over panting: "Found it!" ”

"Ahh Gu Jiao smelled the scent of fragrant powder on the jade pendant, and couldn't help sneezing.

The jade pendant was found in the grass, and there was the same fragrance on it as the girl's, compared to Gu Jiao's jade pendant, this piece was obviously more like hers.

"Is the truth now revealed?" Gu Jiao asked.

"Even if you didn't steal the jade pendant, the jade wrench is always stolen by you." The maid muttered quietly.

"Say no more, Yuru." The girl stopped her, glanced at Gu Jiao with a complicated expression, stepped forward, owed, and said, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood the girl." ”

"Miss!" The maid was shocked!

Her young lady is the daughter of a dignified marquis, how can she whisper to a lowly little village girl?

Even if she is wronged, what's wrong with her, isn't it okay to return her innocence? Why apologize?

The girl said to the maid, "You also quickly apologize to this girl." ”

"But ......"

"Apologies!"

The girl's tone instantly became stern, and the maid didn't dare to be disobedient, and apologized to Gu Jiao with a black face.

The girl turned to the second owner and said, "I hope this incident will not affect the treatment of my brother in the Rejuvenation Hall." ”

The second proprietor glanced at Gu Jiao quietly, and seeing that she had no objection, he nodded to the girl with a smile: "What did Miss Gu say?" We will not delay the treatment of patients because of personal matters. ”

"Thank you." The girl bowed her head and left with the maid with a blue nose and swollen face.

Dean Li looked at her back and said thoughtfully, "Gu family? Is that Gu family in the capital? ”

The second owner sighed with emotion: "In addition to the Gu family in the capital, who else can raise such a daughter of Huai Jin Zhuyu?" ”

No man is born wise or learned? But being able to admit his mistakes and repent in time, and sincerely apologize to a village girl with a humble status, shows that her character is noble and Huai Jin holds Yu.

What Dean Li didn't say was that the daughter's name was really Gu Jinyu.
