Chapter 22 The great kindness of the child, the little woman will repay it in the next life
Damn, this work is so tiring!
Gu Ming finally stopped, and unconsciously raised his hand to wipe his sweat.
After all, the level is a little lower, and it is indeed a bit exhausting to write so many words by continuously casting skills.
After a while, the jujube tree finally stopped shaking.
At the same time, the female ghost was pleasantly surprised, and her body slowly floated into the air.
"Thank you, Childe, the little girl can finally leave...... The great kindness of the child, the little girl will repay ...... in the next life"
The words still echoed in his ears, but the figure turned into a wisp of mist and disappeared into the night sky.
"Plop~"
He Yongliang's spirit was relaxed, and he sat on the ground with a hook.
"It's really unproductive, I read so many sage books in vain, and I have so little courage."
Gu Ming was overjoyed, but he didn't forget to say a word of contempt to He Yongliang.
"Don't talk, let me ...... alone"
"Okay, you want to be quiet here alone, I'll go back first."
"Hmm...... What? You can't leave me alone......"
Although the female ghost had left, He Yongliang still didn't dare to stay alone, so he got up and chased after him.
"Hahaha!"
In the night sky, a string of hearty laughter was left.
……
[Mission Accomplished]
[20 points earned]
As soon as he got home, the first thing Gu Ming did was to submit the task.
With the points, I quickly clicked on the mall and looked at it......
Level 2 Charms to improve skills cost 50 points and are currently unavailable, requiring characters to reach level Xiucai.
Although Gu Ming is a talent now, he has nothing to do with the system level.
Level 2 Charms to improve skills cost 20 points and are currently available.
Let's have one.
Gu Mingnian bought a talisman with a move, and without a trace of hesitation, he used it to improve his calligraphy first.
After all, for a scholar, it is understandable that he can't play the piano or paint, and if the calligraphy is not good, it will make people laugh.
[Congratulations, calligraphy has been upgraded to level 2]
The feeling of an instant upgrade is really sour.
However, whether it is a mule or a horse has to be pulled out and slipped.
Gu Ming found a pen and paper, and hung the pen with a stroke......
"Lying ......"
It's a stroke of genius.
It is no exaggeration to say that the results were completely immediate.
The words written are much more beautiful than before, and there is a faint style of a famous calligrapher in Guobei County.
At the same time, the writing speed is a bit faster than before.
Excited for a moment, Gu Ming immediately sat down and continued to concentrate on "creating" the West Chamber.
I can't stop writing.
It wasn't until dawn that I stopped writing and started washing.
After finishing eating something on the street, I went to call He Yongliang to come to the tavern to find the shopkeeper, saying that he had decided to rent the courtyard.
The shopkeeper was a little surprised, and kindly reminded: "Don't tell the two of you that there was a girl ring hanged in that yard......"
"It's okay, we're readers, don't believe this."
"That being the case, then I don't have much more to say. However, the two of them need to pay a year's rent first. ”
Gu Ming smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, can you find the landlord to come and talk face-to-face, I plan to rent for a few more years, and if the negotiation is completed, I can pay the rent for a few years at once." ”
Gu Ming also did this to prevent extraneous branches, so as to save the other party from regretting it when the time came.
"That's right...... It's okay, anyway, the shopkeeper lives not far from the city, and I'll send someone to inform you immediately, and you can come back in the afternoon. ”
"Thank you!"
Gu Ming thanked him, and then went to the county office alone.
……
"Such a big yard, only eight taels of silver a year?"
Hearing Gu Mingyi's words, Nie Xiaoqian was suddenly interested and wanted to follow along to have a look.
So, prepare the silver taels, and take Yu'er to Zhaobei Street together.
He Yongliang was bored walking around the neighborhood alone, and when he saw Gu Ming actually taking Ermei with him, his eyes turned red at the moment, and he ran over.
"This must be Miss Nie, right?"
Without waiting for Gu Ming to open his mouth, he first asked with a salivating face.
"That's right......"
Gu Ming introduced each other, and then walked into the tavern again.
"Shopkeeper, please open the door again, we still want to enter the courtyard to have a look."
"Okay!"
The shopkeeper answered, and immediately asked the man to open the door.
This time, Gu Ming prepared a fire fold.
"Xiaoqian, this used to be a pharmacy, and the furniture and everything are still there, but they will have to be moved out when the time comes......"
"This is the inner hall, where you can store calligraphy and paintings, and you can also rest ...... temporarily"
When he came to the courtyard, He Yongliang couldn't help but glance at the jujube tree, and said in a trembling voice: "Wen Xing, this tree...... There's no more moths, right? ”
Yu'er glanced over suspiciously: "What kind of moth will a tree make?" ”
"Huh?" He Yongliang was stunned: "Wen Xing, didn't you tell them?" ”
At this moment, even Nie Xiaoqian was a little strange, glanced at Gu Ming and asked, "Gu Gongzi, what's going on?" ”
Gu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I didn't want to tell you, for fear of scaring you and Yu'er." ”
As soon as she heard this, Yu'er's face was frightened first, and she subconsciously pulled the young lady's skirt and stammered: "What, what's the matter?" ”
"I'll tell you ......"
He Yongliang volunteered to tell the story of last night's experience.
"You say weird, don't you? The...... cough, Wen Xing didn't know where to learn the trick, read a few sentences, and at the same time scribbled with a brush, it was really effective......"
"Little, miss, I'...... We'd better hurry back ......."
Yu'er was frightened, with a pitiful expression.
Nie Xiaoqian was calm and comforted: "Don't be afraid, hasn't Gu Gongzi already solved it?" ”
Having said that, Yu'er was still a little frightened, and as she walked, she cautiously peeked around......
After a long circle, Gu Ming went straight to the point and said: "Xiaoqian, since the rent is so cheap, I want to pay the rent for five years at a time, so that I will save a lot of worry in the future." ”
After all, the silver was paid by Nie Xiaoqian, so he naturally had to ask for the other party's opinion.
"Well, it depends on you."
Nie Xiaoqian did not hesitate at all, and immediately agreed.
After leaving the courtyard, taking advantage of the fact that the time was still early and the opportunity was rare, Gu Ming took Nie Xiaoqian to Persimmon Lane and found the temporary residence of Wu's second sister-in-law's family.
A family of seven, old and young, were crammed into a low, dilapidated house in the alley.
"I'm sorry, there's no place for you to sit ......"
Uncle Wu rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said apologetically.
"It's okay, just stand for a while."
After chatting a few words, Gu Ming took out a tael of silver and a hundred copper coins from his body and stuffed them.
"Uncle Wu, there's not much money, you take it first."
"No, no, no, I can't really take your money. If you hadn't helped our family fight the lawsuit, you wouldn't have ......."
"Uncle Wu, there is no need to mention the past, you all have to eat."
After a while, Uncle Wu finally took it in tears.
"Alas!" Gu Ming couldn't help sighing, and glanced at the second sister-in-law Wu who was dumbfounded: "It's okay to persuade her more, maybe one day the case will be overturned, and her illness will be cured." ”
Uncle Wu shook his head with a wry smile, and it seemed that he had completely lost hope in overturning the case.
Before leaving, Nie Xiaoqian quietly left a tael of silver in the house.
The Wu family didn't pay attention, but Gu Ming saw it, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in his heart......
