"Did you hear that? Martha's family came to the official yesterday, saying that their family had obtained ill-gotten gains, and this investigation was really found to have a lot of silver. ”

"Yes, I also heard about it, I look at the ill-gotten wealth and I'm afraid that it was given to them by his niece, I heard that their niece left her daughter behind, who told them not to take people back!"

"I heard that their son, who was preparing for the township exam, was also investigated, saying that he was misbehaving, and he couldn't take the exam this year, and I'm afraid it will take another three years."

"Their family is all black-hearted, and now they will be punished!"

Two or three women were squatting by the river, wringing their clothes, gossiping about the past few days.

The weather is just right today, although there is sunshine, it is not too sunny, so Luo Qing took Gu Huai to Qiaotou Village to pack up his clothes.

In fact, she doesn't really want those things in the past, but if she can save it, she can save it, and the previous clothes are still good, and they can be worn for a long time.

Besides, there are two hairpins of hers in it, which are all her jewelry, and they can also be used as some silver when the time comes.

It's just that she didn't expect to hear the news of her grandfather's family accident as soon as she arrived in Qiaotou Village, and she was really unhappy!

After packing up the things, Luo Qing was about to follow Gu Huai back to Qingquan Village without hesitation, but as soon as she arrived at the door, she met someone who came to give her something.

Luo Qing was shocked, it turned out to be his brother's friend Lin Dianshi.

"The Martha family has explained, this is the silver left by your mother, and now it should be returned to the original owner. As for Ma Da and his wife, it is not easy to convict, just lock them up for a few days and let them obey. ”

Luo Qing only came back to her senses at this time, she only told her brother about this matter, but she didn't think that he not only wrote it down, but also sought justice for herself.

It turns out that it's not that some wicked person has his own evil retribution, but someone is fighting for him.

She glanced back at Gu Huai, and saw that he was still smiling at the corner of his mouth, so she secretly suppressed the warm waves in her heart, and turned her head to thank Lin Dianshi: "Thank you, Lord Lin, for making the decision for me." ”

Lin Dianshi shook his head: "Don't mind, I'm not an adult, as for Xie, I'm just doing it, it's your brother who runs errands, and everything is investigated." ”

Gu Huai hugged his fists and saluted: "Thank you, Brother Lin." ”

Lin Dianshi replied to Gu Huai: "Brother Gu just needs to make me a pot of tea." ”

Gu Huai shook his head helplessly: "This thing can't be passed, right?" No hindrance, cooking tea and tea, looking forward to it. ”

After the matter was solved, Luo Qing went back with Gu Huai, and as for the silver, as soon as he returned to the hut in the forest, Luo Qing pushed it all in front of Gu Huai.

"If it's yours, you take it."

"But we are a family, I am only eleven years old, and my brother is older than me, so naturally my brother should be in charge of money."

If you can do this, Luo Qing really doesn't want it, but she still has to live, and her brother still has to live, and this silver is also a lot, if they save some money, it will be enough for them to live for several years.

Where did Gu Huai not know Luo Qing's thoughts? I only feel ironed in my heart. Sincerity is the most rare, thinking that I just took her in, but I can be treated by her with full eyes, and it is really worth it.

He didn't say much, only replied with the word "good", and said in his heart, it would be good to prepare more dowry for her in the future.

But ......, "If you regard me as your own brother, then I must teach you as well." ”

Luo Qing was sitting precariously: "Brother, you say." ”

Gu Huai was amused when he heard Luo Qing's serious tone like a little adult, but now that the atmosphere has been created, it would be a little inappropriate for him to laugh again, so he had to hold back.

"I taught you before, it's my own, don't let go no matter what, you have to fight for what you should fight, and now I can be regarded as teaching you by doing. However, to do what you can, you must first have your life to fight, and you can only lie dormant before you have absolute strength. ”

Gu Huai picked up the folding fan and gently tapped on his palm.

"Remember, sometimes you have to come forward yourself for unnecessary trouble, just a little push in the back."

Luo Qing didn't seem to understand, but he still nodded and said, "Qingqing remembers." ”

Gu Huai also knew that it was useless to teach too much, so he didn't say these empty words anymore, just wait until the next time he encountered something. The child is only eleven years old, and he can only talk about kissing at the age of fifteen, and he can stay by his side for at least four years.

Thinking of this, he was a little melancholy, but his face was not obvious, and he only said: "Just remember, follow me to learn to read and write after a while." Will it? ”

Luo Qing's eyes stared at Gu Huai for a moment, but his hands under the table poked his clothes for a moment.

"I learned a little bit with my younger brother, not much, in fact, the main thing is for me to look at my younger brother, my mother said that it is useless for girls to read so many books, and women are virtuous if they are not talented."

At the mention of this, her interest was significantly lowered.

Gu Huaixian extremely disagreed with these words: "That's all bluffing, if you really don't use those young ladies to read, what are you doing?" ”

As he spoke, he laughed again: "Brother hopes that you will read more books, and if you see more, you will not be deceived by someone else's pastry, otherwise my brother will be so sad at that time." ”

Luo Qing pouted and retorted in a low voice: "No." I don't know if my brother is talking about Qingqing or himself. ”

Luo Qing has always been very sensible, for fear of adding the slightest trouble to Gu Huai, but it was the first time he had seen such a coquettish Luo Qing, which made him laugh, and he couldn't help but beg for mercy.

That's a good start, he thought.

After a while, Aunt Zhong made the food and sent it over, Luo Qing took the food box and said goodbye, Aunt Zhong went back to the house to arrange the meals one by one, and according to Gu Huai's intentions, she took out the silver needle and tried the poison of the food one by one.

"Brother, it's okay, you can eat."

My brother's eyes are not good, he tried it with a silver needle and couldn't see clearly whether the silver needle has changed color, but fortunately, the eyes are not good, the ears, nose and mouth are very good, and the silver needle will act on poison to produce a very light smell, he only needs to get it to sniff before the nose to know.

It's not that he doesn't believe Aunt Zhong, it's just that some people just can't prevent it and take advantage of loopholes to poison them.

These are all things that my brother told her.

Only then did she understand why he didn't eat the roasted sweet potatoes she had brought him.

She doesn't understand, isn't her brother tired of living like this? Guard against this person and against that person, but......

"Brother, your eyes ...... Why is this happening......"

Gu Huai's movement of picking up chopsticks stopped for a moment, but it returned to normal in an instant.

"As Qingqing thought, someone poisoned the food. In fact, there are many poisons in the silver needle that cannot be prevented, but it is just to give yourself a comfort. ”

"Brother......" Luo Qing asked tentatively again, "Have you offended a lot of people?" Are there a lot of people who want to hurt my brother? ”

"yes." Gu Huai stretched out his hand and patted Luo Qing's head, and said intimidatingly, "So Qingqing should be careful, it is dangerous to follow my brother." ”

Luo Qing picked up the chopsticks and put a chopstick dish into his mouth: "Don't be afraid!" ”

After a while, she said again: "Brother, I want to study medicine!" ”

This was the first time she had such a strong desire, to cure her brother's eyes, to identify poison and medicine for him, and to protect his peace.

Gu Huai's action of picking up vegetables paused, and then continued, only to hear him say gently: "Okay." ”
