Although Li Jiushao felt a little unhappy that he was rejected, when he heard what Mei Xiaotong meant, did he feel that he was a person who did great things? Immediately happy again.

Gu Zikai glanced at Mei Xiaotong's unintentional compliment, and was so stupid that he was afraid of Li Jiushao, who didn't know what his surname was, "Gu Mou knows, this is Brother Song's family matter, and it is inconvenient for us to interfere!" However, Brother Song and I are neighbors at first sight, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. We have such a fate, we are both classmates and neighbors, so we don't talk about outsiders! ”

"If you need help, just ask! Not to mention anything else, it's still okay to clean up this profiteer! ”

An Huahao felt that he didn't drive these two people out, it was really an eyesore at the moment, just such a little thing, it was when he brushed his good impression in front of his own wife and mother-in-law, and when he set up an image, he came to steal the show one by one, what does it mean? Originally, her own lady was so strong, and before she could act, she would solve half of the matter first, and she would still grab the rest of the things?

Do you really think you're a soft persimmon?

At that moment, Pi smiled and said: "Thank you Brother Gu for your kindness!" It's just a little thing, not enough to worry about, so I won't work Brother Gu and Jiu Shao-"

Li Jiushao was immersed in his character of being a person who did big things and couldn't extricate himself, so he said casually: "Okay, you can deal with these little things, in case there is anything that can't be solved, come to me again." Don't worry, as long as I open my mouth and don't say anything else, in this Qingzhou Mansion, his Tian family won't want to have a business to do! ”

Anwar Hao knotted.

Gritted his teeth: "It's not too early, shouldn't the two of you go back-" Directly opened his mouth to drive away the guests.

Li Jiushao originally wanted to say that he had come here, but he didn't even leave food? In the end, although the hot tea is not hot at the moment, when the wind blows, it is wet against the thighs, which is really uncomfortable.

He is also a cleanliness habit, although he really wants to stay in the Song family for a while, but he really can't hold back, so he stands up and wants to leave.

Not only that, but he also scooped up Gu Zikai: "Then we will say goodbye first, and tell us if we have something!" ”

Gu Zikai's always gentle smile almost didn't collapse, and he silently recited it three times in his heart, this is a fool! I reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said goodbye politely and kindly.

Out of the courtyard door, Li Jiushao jumped up with cracked teeth: "Oh, it's scalding me, hurry up, show me-"

On the other hand, he lifted his robe and asked Gu Zikai to show him the injury.

Gu Zikai's face couldn't bear it: "You are enough!" I'm not your old mother, you have to see for yourself! ”

Li Jiushao was not angry, but came over with a provocative smile: "What, I pulled you out and ruined your good deeds again?" I tell you, what I can't get, you don't want to get! Not only today, but tomorrow, and in the future, I'm staring at you anyway—"

Gu Zikai faded away from his usual gentleness at this moment, revealing a hint of fierceness, and was about to speak.

Li Jiushao said very familiarly: "Oh, let's."

Brothers, after more than ten years of friendship, do you really care about this with me? Take me back to your house, I'm going to change my clothes, it's so wet and uncomfortable—"

Gu Zikai glanced at Li Jiushao warningly, and finally turned his head to lead the way.

took Li Jiushao back to his room, took out a robe from the cabinet and threw it to him: "Let's change it, this is this year's clothes sent from the capital just a few days ago, and I haven't put it on yet." ”

He knew that Li Jiushao had a habit of cleanliness and never used things that others had used, so he specially explained a few words.

Li Jiushao took the clothes and untied his robe, only to find that the hot tea just now really burned his legs.

What else can Gu Zikai do? Really can't do it?

I had to go out to find Wolf Hao's mother-in-law, Mrs. Li, to ask for burn ointment.

When he came back with the ointment, he saw Li Jiushao sitting on the kang, with his head down and not knowing what he was looking at.

Throw the ointment on the kang: "The ointment is here, apply it yourself, I have already asked someone to notify Wangcai, and someone will come to pick you up after a while!" ”

As he spoke, he walked to the side and took a book and sat down to read it.

As soon as he sat down, he heard Li Jiushao's voice, with an indescribable strangeness: "What is this?" ”

Gu Zikai's heart jumped, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Li Jiushao's face unconfident and angry, and what he pointed to was a small hole exposed on the kang wall.

Gu Zikai was silent, but just squeezed the book in his hand.

Li Jiushao lowered his voice, "What's going on with this hole?" Are you actually peeping? Gu Zikai, you are a scholar in vain, how can you do such an insulting thing? Who the hell are you spying on? Mrs. Wang? Gu Zikai, you also call yourself a gentleman, a fair lady, a gentleman! Even if you can't ask for it, you can't do such a bad thing, right? You...... You ......"

Gu Zikai looked at Li Jiushao calmly: "Are you finished?" ”

Li Jiushao suddenly exploded: "I found out all this, the human and material evidence are all there, you still think there is no such thing?" Gu Zikai, how did you become like this? ”

Gu Zikai calmed down, sat down with a touch of robe, and sneered: "Can you put away the little love between men and women in your mind?" You can't hold anything else in your head but that? ”

Li Jiu Shao didn't sprinkle, and immediately realized that something was wrong: "What do you mean?" Are you suspicious of Anhua Hao? You're spying on them—"

Gu Zikai nodded and shook his head: "At first, I was also suspicious of them, but now—"

Li Jiushao's face was also difficult to look at: "They still refuse to let you go?" “

Gu Zikai sneered: "If you are willing to let it go, why should I avoid coming to this Jing County?" But they don't dare to go too far, and they know that it's all those means, and it's best to put a few people around me, and it's best to bring me down, that's the best, it's not that I'm not motivated, and it has nothing to do with them-"

Li Jiushao suddenly patted the edge of the kang: "Then the joy you showed."

Huan Wang's lady, isn't she also pretending? You just want to use this name to spy on the Song family, yes or no? ”

Gu Zikai did not deny it or admit it.

His family is complicated, and in order to hide from his leisure, he didn't want to get involved in it, so he hid in Jing County, which is thousands of miles away.

Afraid that others would arrange manpower, he rented this small courtyard by himself to a trustworthy Chinese person who was found by his teacher, and at that time he also heard from the Chinese that this courtyard was originally owned by a wealthy merchant, but later went bankrupt and was bought by a small couple, and the front yard was rented, and the backyard should be kept and said that he could not live by himself.

I also heard from the side that the Chinese said that the young couple was from the township below, but they had a little savings on hand and were not very rich.

It didn't sound like anything was wrong, so I rented it.

It was quiet and quiet, and the days passed peacefully.

It wasn't until the owner of this courtyard moved in that he was a little suspicious when he saw An Huahao, whose reading show was not polite and gentle.

But this An Huahao's tendons and flesh all over his body, and his forever black face, are not a talent at first glance, but like a martial artist.

So there was vigilance at that time.

Especially when he saw Mei Xiaotong, at that moment, he couldn't help but feel that she had a kind face, so he was happy, and his irrepressible good feelings arose.

Gu Zikai has never had such a situation with a strange woman, he couldn't control his eyes looking at Mei Xiaotong on the one hand, but on the other hand, he frantically warned himself in his heart that these two people were dangerous, and they couldn't be said to be here for him.

After that, he and An Huahao naturally became classmates, going to the academy together every day, and going home together, in the eyes of outsiders, naturally the relationship between the two was good, and he also made a look of the two at first sight.

But in his heart, he was always on guard.

Especially the friends who grew up together since childhood, the appearance of Li Jiushao made him more and more jealous of An Huahao and Mei Xiaotong.

He didn't believe that a country girl would be involved in the business of the Li family, and he didn't believe that a country man born in Orion could also be admitted to Xiucai?

There must be someone behind them!

Not to mention, Mei Xiaotong and Mrs. Zhang later said that they were the mute who moved to the small courtyard of the Song family after returning to the countryside to sweep the tomb and not coming back.

In the eyes of others, the mute was just an ordinary man, but he could see that this mute was definitely not an ordinary person, but a bit of a ranger.

How can a good country talent have anything to do with the rangers?

At this time, who else can afford to raise a ranger, except for a handful of families?

It can't be said that it is a pretense to send such an eyeliner to stare at yourself.

Gu Zikai was silent on the surface, but he became more and more vigilant in his heart.

Later, I thought, since An Huahao and the mute are staring at him, why can't he spy on them?

He found an opportunity to enter the courtyard of the Song family and roughly determined the direction

In the corner of the Song family, there are a few flower trees, and now they are luxuriant, just enough to block them.

Gu Zikai secretly dug a small hole in the wall at night under the pretext of not disturbing people, and pasted the paper into mud, blocking the hole during the day, and no one could find out.

At night, when everyone was asleep, he blew out the lights and secretly observed the movement in the backyard.

It's just that for so long, he didn't find the flaws in An Huahao and Mei Xiaotong, especially after Mei Xiaotong's mother was sick, watching Mei Xiaotong and An Huahao for Mrs. Zhang, that really can do anything, the best doctor, the best medicine, and specially hired two mothers-in-law to serve them.

Not only that, Mei Xiaotong also didn't even want a business with a monthly income of almost a few thousand silver for Mrs. Zhang's sake, and concentrated on accompanying Mrs. Zhang at home, and said that she would take her around to have a look.

An Huahao, the son-in-law, also has no complaints, and treats Mrs. Zhang as a mother-in-law.

Whether it's acting or not, of course he can see it.

So after knowing that Mrs. Zhang was sick, he hesitated for a while, and then asked Wolf Hao to send a bunch of good medicinal materials to the backyard.

These medicinal materials were originally sent to him at home, for fear that if he had something outside, the medicinal materials he bought would not be as good as those at home.

I didn't expect it to be cheaper for the Song family.

Gu Zikai actually knew in his heart that he was afraid that An Huahao and Mei Xiaotong's family really didn't come to stare at his eyeliner.

But he got into the habit of lying on the kang every day, blowing out the lights, and listening to the movements in the backyard.

Sometimes it's An Huahao and Mei Xiaotong's occasional bickering.

Sometimes it's Mrs. Zhang's loud voice.

More often, it was Mei Xiaotong coaxing Mrs. Zhang's sweet words.

……

At this moment, he was discovered by Li Jiushao, and he was not worried that this matter would be exposed by Li Jiushao.

Li Jiushao is a person, he knows best, he will explode when he looks at his temper, he has no city government, and he is very arrogant, he is a person who can't hide his heart.

But the two of them grew up together, who doesn't know who?

Outsiders say that the two don't like each other when they are young, and they pinch each other when they meet, just like the enemies in their previous lives.

In fact, no one knows that the two do have a lifelong friendship, and they are also the people who know each other's true colors best.

Li Jiushao knew that he was not a gentle scholar on the surface, but the most suspicious and indifferent person in his heart.

He also knew that Li Jiu Shao actually had the city government in his heart, and his arrogant temper was explosive, but it was just a side he wanted to see.

The two cherish each other, they have a tacit understanding with each other, and when they meet in front of outsiders, they must be incompatible, and when there is no one, they can relax with each other and be their true selves for a while.

Li Jiu Shao naturally knew that his friend, who looked gentle, was actually the most stubborn, and the things that he had decided in his heart would not change easily.

Therefore, he only sighed: "The origin of the Wang family, our family has already investigated seventeen or eighteen times, otherwise."

Why is my family so relieved to do business with her? It was indeed from the countryside that started her family, and it was the sudden changes in the family that forced her to come out as a girl and carry a family. What's more, Wang Niangzi can rely on the dyeing formula in her hand to worry about food and clothing, and she can do such a thing? ”

"Besides, I don't want to think about it, An Huahao's guy is a talent, I asked someone to check, he really got admitted by himself, and he does have a little talent in his stomach! A person who can be admitted to Xiucai has a great future, and he can use his self-destructive future to be used as a dog's leg to monitor others? I think I have been harmed a lot by those people in the capital, and now the grass and trees are all in the news, and everyone is like a vital victim! ”

"I didn't say it! is so suspicious and sick, it really has to be converged and converged! Don't believe in grandfather, don't believe in father? They are such a precious son, and they will not let anything happen if they try their best! Not to mention, the relationship between the dean of this academy and his grandfather's family can cause an accident in Jingxian County? "That proves you're blind!

"It's only a few months before the autumn test, if you still put your mind on this, you really hit their plan, and when the autumn test fails, I'm afraid it will be as they want!"

Li Jiushao's words were sincere persuasion to Gu Zikai.

He knew Gu Zikai's family, looking at the flowers, a harmonious atmosphere, in fact, in such a person's back, where is not bloody? Gu Zikai grew up in such an environment since he was a child, and in addition to his parents, it is normal for outsiders to be extremely wary.

But like Gu Zikai, it is not a good thing to be tense all the time like this, and half of your mind is on this.

He still remembered that his master had said that Gu Zikai's talent was extraordinary, and now he is only half of his heart, far beyond others, if he studies wholeheartedly, he is afraid that he will become a genius who will move the world.

As a friend, he really couldn't bear to let Gu Zikai fall into those senseless battles and calculations all his life.

He persuaded Gu Zikai many times to say this, but Gu Zikai was always silent.

But after saying this today, Gu Zikai was silent for a while, and then let out a sigh: "I'll try my best——"

When Li Jiushao heard this, he was overjoyed and jumped up: "Really? I said nerd, why did you suddenly open your mind? After all these years, when have I not talked about it once or twice? It's like the stones in that pit, smelly and hard! What's going on today? ”

Gu Zikai's face darkened, and he glared at Li Jiushao angrily: "Get out of me when you change your clothes!" It's time for Wangcai to bring someone to pick it up in a while! ”

Li Jiushao's face immediately collapsed: "Is it a good brother or not?" I'm bent on it, and you're going to push me back to the wolf's den again? Gu Zikai sneered: "What did you say about persuading me?" Good brother, you are dedicated to me, and I naturally can't delay you, right? If you stay with me longer, won't you be afraid of suspicion? Now that you have made a decision, why don't you go back quickly, get more money, get more contacts, and lest it be difficult to make ends meet when you are swept out of the house in the future! ”

"I can tell you, I won't have the money to help me then

Yours! Just wait for the northwest wind to drink! Or just hug your father's thigh, wag his tail and beg for mercy, and obediently listen to him."

"Bah, Gu Zikai, can you speak? What does it mean to wag your tail and beg for mercy? What does it mean that labor and management will drink the northwest wind in the future? Tell you! Don't look at the master like this now, the master has a thick purse" Li Jiushao immediately fried the pot.

You can say he's not beautiful! That proves you're blind!

But if he says he has no money! Bah! Jiu Shao can immediately take out the silver and stone you to death!

Having said that, both of them know each other in their hearts that they are both for each other's good.

Therefore, without mentioning Fang Cai's words tacitly, the two of them used the ridicule just now to scold each other, half-truths and half-truths.

When Wangcai came to pick up his young master with his guards, he heard that his young master was so angry that he didn't even care about the image of one of the four beauties in the capital.

"Master, I wear your clothes, I can afford you! You don't charge the master with a big tail wolf! What are you to teach me? Isn't it just a set of clothes? Master bought it! ”

Seeing Wangcai, he immediately shook his head: "Wangcai, give money!" This set of clothes on your young master, I bought it! ”

Wangcai looked at Li Jiushao with an embarrassed face, knowing that his young master's stubborn temper had come up again.

exchanged glances with a few guards, and had to step forward, facing Gu Zikai, who had always had a gentle temper and was so angry that his face changed at the moment: "Young Master of the Gu family, look, how much is your set of clothes?" ”

Gu Zikai sneered: "Although my Gu family is not as rich as the Li family, it is not so stingy that I can't give up a set of clothes!" For the sake of the friendship between the Li family and the Gu family, even if I give this dress to your young master! Alright, send-off! ”
