"Something? What's wrong with my brother! Gu Changning's brain "buzzed" when he heard this, and he was stunned, subconsciously remembering that his brother's body in his previous life gradually lost its temperature, and when he was lying there cold and stiff, his face instantly turned pale, and his lips also lost color, and he looked at the person in a panic and asked in a trembling voice.

Her reaction was too strong, not only the few people sitting next to her were frightened, but even the aunt who passed the message was also startled, stunned for two seconds, and then patted her thigh and said: "Wrong, wrong, I said wrong, it's not your brother who has an accident, it's the school that your brother is studying that has an accident!" ”

Gu Changning's violently beating heart gradually slowed down, and her cold fingertips slowly recovered their temperature, she blinked, and asked in a daze, "Something happened to the school my brother is studying?" ”

"Isn't there something wrong with the school!"

"What about my brother?" Gu Changning hurriedly asked.

"Your brother is fine, it's another student who has something."

Gu Changning breathed a sigh of relief, and her face looked a little better than just now, but her hands were still a little trembling.

The other people were a little worried when they saw her appearance, Chen Shuang took her arm and comforted her gently: "Ning Ning, your brother is fine, you don't have to be nervous." ”

“…… Well. Gu Changning swallowed his dry throat, nodded slowly, remembered what this aunt said, and reluctantly raised his spirit and asked, "Aunt Liu, you just said that something happened in the school, what happened?" ”

"I heard that it seems that a student fainted in the school yesterday, and their family has been passed down for three generations, and the student's parents and clansmen have gone to the school to ask for an explanation, I didn't just learn the news, and I saw you again, and remembered that your brother happened to be studying in this school, so I quickly told you." Aunt Liu sneered, "Who knows that your mouth is too fast, so you will leak it, and you will misunderstand." ”

Gu Changning touched the cold sweat on his forehead and reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth.

She wasn't in the mood to worry about that now, she just wanted to know if the student's people would make trouble and if it would affect her brother.

I'm afraid that the other party will be too angry at that time, and I will move my hands regardless of it, and my fists will be eyeless, what if I hurt someone?

Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still, and wanted to go to the town immediately to find out the situation.

As soon as the thought arose, she saw a familiar figure walking on the other side of the village road, the young man was tall and thin, neatly dressed, and his hair was tied up exactly as it had been when he had left the house in the morning, without the slightest abnormality.

If it weren't for Aunt Liu's words, no one would have thought about the accident in the school at all.

Gu Changning hurriedly put down the sewing basket, got up and walked towards him quickly.

"Brother, are you okay?" Gu Changning pulled Gu Huai'an's sleeve and looked around him up and down, left and right, back and forth, wanting to see if he was injured.

Seeing Gu Changning's performance, Gu Huai'an knew that his sister already knew about the school, and after a glance, he saw that Aunt Liu was here, and he knew who said it, so he had to smile and said, "I'm fine, Master He saw that the matter was too big, and gave us five days off, and then quickly let us leave through the back door of the school, and all the students were fine." ”

As soon as the words fell, before Gu Changning could say anything, Aunt Liu couldn't wait to take the lead, "Ouch, Brother An, it's great that you're okay, I heard that your new master asked the students to clean the yard at noon in the hottest day, and one of the weaker students fainted, but is there such a thing?" ”

There are three points of concern in the tone, and seven points of excitement.

As soon as Aunt Liu's words were finished, Gu Huai'an's heart jumped suddenly, and he secretly screamed that it was not good, and he wanted to cover up the matter and smiled: "Actually, it's okay, it's also the duty of a student to share his worries for Mr......."

Seeing his brother's unnatural expression, Gu Changning squinted, and suddenly flashed in his mind that something was wrong with his brother in the past few days, and suddenly figured out the key, looking at his brother with a small face, and anger grew.

No wonder my brother came back later than before these days, and he told himself that the master was strict, so he stayed in the school and worked harder.

Now it seems that I am afraid that the master left them behind to be the envoy of the people!

It is appropriate for students to work for their husbands, but they also have to be divided into the severity of the situation, and most of the jobs that are originally done by subordinates will not be let students do them, unless they are students whose families cannot afford to be restrained.

She knew that some students who couldn't afford to be bound would stay at the master's house to do some chores to offset it, usually saying that after a few years, the husband would take care of food and housing, and give out a few sets of clothes throughout the year, but there was no salary, just like a subordinate who bought a lifelong contract.

But such students do not include my brother, and their family has never owed the school a penny!

Even in order to hand over the bundle first, Daddy and Auntie would rather postpone building a house for a few years!

Gu Huai'an's face turned red when he saw his sister's anger, and he subconsciously explained, "It's not that you need to clean the yard at noon every day." ”

"It's not noon, but what about after school?" Gu Changning glared at his brother and asked, "You have come back a month and a half later than usual these days, does my brother want to say that you have stayed in the school hall to memorize and copy books for half an hour?!" ”

Gu Huai'an was speechless by her question, and he couldn't say anything that he had originally wanted to comfort her.

"Ning Ning ......" Seeing Gu Changning so angry, Chen Shuang and the others looked at each other and froze in place, looking at a loss.

They wanted to comfort her, but they didn't know what they could say, so they all stood stupidly and looked at her.

Seeing that there were still so many people here, Gu Huai'an hurriedly gestured to Gu Changning, then turned to face Aunt Liu, and said very politely: "Thank you aunt for your concern, Huai'an is fine, so I won't bother my aunt to work." ”

"Whereever, I'm just a matter of mouth, not a bother." Aunt Liu said with some embarrassment, "Since you are safe and sound, my aunt remembers that there are still some things to do at home, so I will leave first." ”

She didn't expect Gu Huai'an to be left in the school by Mr. at the moment, and she only felt hot at this time, and she couldn't wait to leave immediately.

"Auntie go slowly." Gu Huai'an still spoke to her politely, straightened up after sending her away, and said softly to Gu Changning, "I will tell you in detail about this matter after I go back, but I have to hide it from A-Niang, otherwise I'm afraid she will be in a hurry." ”

“…… Do you still need to use your brother, I'll naturally pay attention! Gu Changning said in an unkind tone, "It's my brother, if it weren't for such a big thing happening in the school, how long would you be going to hide it?" ”

"......" Gu Huai'an coughed and said, "How long can you hide it, you have to believe in your brother, my brother can solve this matter." ”

Gu Changning's eyes were full of disbelief, but she didn't say anything, reluctantly said "um", and let him go home first.

After Gu Huai'an left, Xing'er saw Gu Changning walking towards them, and said quickly: "Ningning, aren't you going back?" ”

"What are you going back for, isn't the embroidery work still unfinished?" Gu Changning said casually, "Let's finish today's embroidery first." ”

"Oh."

Everyone sat back in their original positions silently, but the atmosphere was not as warm as before, as if they were frozen by 10,000 years of frost, revealing an eerie quiet.

Gu Changning seemed to be unaware of this, and still calmly pointed out the problems with the needle on his face, and directly changed the topic, and the atmosphere gradually returned to its original state.

At the end of Shen Shi, when it was time to make dinner, Chen Shuang and Gu Changning parted under the tree and went home.

Gu Changning also walked home with his sewing basket.

Along the way, when she met villagers returning home from work in the fields, she would also smile and say hello to people, but as soon as the people left, the smile on her face instantly put down, and her expression was very serious.

Although the elder brother said that the master did not require the yard to be cleaned at noon every day, it was summer, and it would be the hottest time of the year in just over a month.

At that time, the sun was scorching, and people were easily dizzy and confused after standing under the sun for a long time, and even suffered from heat stroke (the name of the disease in traditional Chinese medicine), which can kill people!

As soon as he thought of this, Gu Changning was afraid for a while, if something happened to his brother, A-Niang would definitely collapse!

In this way, isn't it a return to the old path of the previous life? So what's the point of her rebirth!

Gu Changning returned home in silence.

The yard at home was very quiet, Gu Changning slowly walked back to his house, put down the sewing basket, and then silently went to the backyard vegetable garden to pick a few vegetables, ready to go to the stove house to cook.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Gu Huai'an appear around the corner, looking at her a little nervously.

Gu Changning lowered his eyes, passed him without saying anything, and his face was full of the words "I am in a bad mood", and he was busy cooking.

Gu Huai'an touched his nose, knowing that his sister was angry, he hurriedly chased to the stove room, and consciously looked at his sister's face carefully while helping to cook, and considered what to say.

For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly felt that the identities of the two seemed to be reversed, he became a younger brother, and Ning Ning became a sister.

As if he didn't know what he was looking at, Gu Changning took the chopping board and started chopping vegetables.

Gu Huai'an took the fire, lit it and put it in the stove, and then added some thin branches to the stove to increase the flames, and then cleared his throat and said, "Brother knows that he is wrong, Ning Ning, don't be angry." ”

The knife for cutting vegetables suddenly stopped, and Gu Changning was silent for two seconds before he spoke, "What's wrong." ”

“…… I shouldn't have kept it a secret from you. Gu Huai'an blinked, feeling that Ning Ning's momentum was almost comparable to that of A-Niang when she was angry.

At that moment, Gu Huai'an had an inexplicable illusion, feeling that the person questioning him was not Ning Ning but A-Niang.

Gu Changning fell silent again, and said for a long time: "Brother, A-Niang and I really hope that you can be lifted, so that we can rely on us and will not be easily bullied, but if it is compared to your life, we can do without these." ”

Gu Huai'an looked at the flames reflecting red light in the stove, stared silently and speechlessly, and then replied in a low voice: "Well, I know." ”

Gu Changning suddenly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said very abruptly: "If that master wants to continue teaching in the academy, why don't you change the academy?" ”

"Another one?" Gu Huai'an was stunned, "Where to change?" ”

The school near here belongs to He Fuzi's most powerful learning.

"Now, this man, you have to have a goal! What if you are not careful? Gu Changning raised the kitchen knife, looked up at the air in front of him, and said with a deep gaze, "For example, the academy in the state capital, do you have any ideas, brother?" ”

"Academy?" Gu Huai'an opened his mouth and looked at his sister blankly, not knowing what to say.

The academy is less than ten taels of starts, the masters there are all knowledgeable, famous literati and ink writers, I don't know how many times better than the school, the students who study in it are basically the young masters of the rich and noble, but I can't think of a place!
