The fourth master's final agreement with Gu Min was that the upbringing of the little leopard would still be left to him.

Now several sons can also do errands, and the younger brothers are also doing good errands.

There was already the kind of failed education of a little lion before, coupled with the current situation of the little leopard, the fourth master felt that it was more reassuring for the younger son's knowledge to be in his own hands.

After all, what a losing mother is!!

Originally, Gu was not good at teaching children, look, if the little lion had been raised by him back then, where would he go to the West for a woman!!

Gu Min saw that his goal had been achieved, and he was also a lot more relieved.

It is better to let the fourth master raise a child than to let him indulge in Taoism.

The only thing that made Gu Min depressed was that the little leopard had a tendency to gradually turn into ice cubes, and the boss had a face.

After the Spring Festival of the fourteenth year of Yongzheng, Gu Min breathed a long sigh of relief.

The fourth master should be regarded as passing a level, right?

Although I am always angry with the little leopard now, I am full of energy, and it is no problem to live for another three or five or seven years, right?

Then do you want to think of a way to bring your youngest son back?

"Eniang, Lao Zhou's youngest son, Zhou Yude, wants to see you and says that he has something important to report to you."

One day, the big cat suddenly hurried in and said to Gu Min.

Since Gu Min came back from Nanyang, he has been able to receive gifts from Lao Zhou every year.

Those people knew that Gu Min lacked nothing, so those gifts were all on point, and they would definitely not be heavy money, but they definitely put a lot of thought into it.

However, for so many years, there has never been such a thing as a meeting, so Gu Min is quite strange.

"Didn't tell you? Actually, it's the same with you. ”

Gu Min frowned and said.

Whether it is public or private, it is more convenient to find a big cat.

"What did you tell people?"

Is there something I have to tell myself?

But over the years, I haven't been in touch anymore, have I?

"I said, I'll handle everything, but they are very insisting, Eniang, I think something must have happened in Nanyang.

However, I asked Xingde to inquire secretly, everything is too peaceful, Eniang, there won't be any problems, right? ”

The big cat was a little worried.

Gu Min shook his head when he heard this, "Dragons have dragon paths, rats have rat paths, and sometimes, the news of their businessmen is faster than the official one, which is very normal."

However, it is not convenient for me to go out now. ”

Lao Zhou's family has always been careful and well-behaved, and this request is a bit excessive, but there must be a reason for them.

So, what is it all about?

"By the way, some time ago, did Nanyang have any news with your brother?"

Gu Min felt, could it be that they had the news of the little lion?

For the past few years, Narsu has been searching the sea and asking people, but there is no news.

Gu Min was also full of confidence from the beginning, and gradually became a little disappointed.

It's just that people have been adding sesame oil to the temple, no matter life or death, they hope that the Buddha can bless him.

"E-Niang thinks it will be my brother's business?"

Although the big cat also wants his brother to survive, he also knows that this hope is actually very slim.

Before, Hongzhan had mentioned that when the time comes, he will give his two sons to the little lion, so that the little lion can receive the incense of his descendants no matter what.

It's just that there is no corpse, and everyone doesn't want to believe it.

It is difficult for Gu Min to get out of the garden, but on the other hand, it is much easier to bring the people of the Zhou family in.

Whether the big cat enters the palace or the garden, there is no obstacle, so he brought Zhou Yude in.

"Pirates? Are you sure? ”

According to Zhou Yude, there is now a group of pirates in the West, who never rob and kill people in the Qing Dynasty, but for people in the West, it is embarrassing.

According to some boat people in the Qing Dynasty, the ship looked very much like the Great Treasure Ship that sailed out of the South China Sea in the Qing Dynasty, but the ship number was different.

The most important thing is that the pirate leader is also fluent in Qing and Western dialects.

And it is said that the pirate leader should be about the same age as the lion cub, in the words of the crew, very young.

Do you think, if it were really an ordinary pirate, how to say it, there would be thirty or forty, right?

"The villain also knows that Brother Ah is...... However, in the eyes of the villain, it may be true.

Niangniang, you think, those pirates don't blink an eye when they kill people and oversell goods, why do you just let me go to the people of the Qing Dynasty?

Why has there been no news of my brother in the past few years.

Therefore, the villain recommends, did Brother have some accidents and couldn't return to China, and then wandered on the sea? ”

The reason why Zhou Yude only dared to tell Gu Min about this was mainly because of his father's instructions.

What his father meant was that the people of the royal family were extremely arrogant, and if you told someone, maybe the pirate was Brother, don't ask people if they believe it or not, and the person who said it might not be able to save his life.

But the concubine is different.

On the one hand, people's minds are different from ordinary people, and on the other hand, people are Eniang.

For a mother, as long as her son is alive, it doesn't matter if her son is a pirate or a robber, as long as her son is still alive.

But for a father or a brother and sister, it's different.

For them, brothers are competitors, and face is more important than everything.

Zhou Yude didn't dare to gamble with his own life.

What's more, isn't this uncertain yet?

Gu Min listened, and his heart was overjoyed, and he said, "What about the pirate now?" ”

As long as it is his own lion cub, he is happy.

As for whether the little lion has become a pirate, Gu Min doesn't mind this at all.

Do you think, people only rob Westerners, and don't rob Qing people, how principled are they!!

Even if it's not a lion cub, it's a thief!!

However, Gu Min felt that it must be his little lion, and it would take some time to confirm it.

You said that your son is fine, how can you become a pirate, Khan!

"Back to Niangniang, such pirates come and go without a trace, and it is really difficult to track them down.

According to the small boat people, they have encountered it once or twice a year. ”

Because of the little lion's matter, Gu Min personally wrote to the Zhou family and the Qian family at that time.

The power of the Zhou family and the Qian family on the sea is not small, and in addition, the little lion went to the West back then, and the coast of the south of the Yangtze River also knew about it.

So, the boat people are also quite interested.

After all, Xinghua Village once promised that who could help find the whereabouts of the little lion and reward a thousand gold.

There was a time when some fishermen went out looking for it, and they thought, what if they had that fortune?

It's just that after looking for a year, there is no news from everyone, and no fishermen have gone out to look for it.

The news of the pirates was also inadvertently mentioned by some fishermen, and someone in the Zhou family reported it, and Zhou Yude was concerned, so he slowly investigated.

Zhou Yude is only suspicious now, because there are too many coincidences.

And now what is in front of Gu Min is to find trustworthy people to get close to those so-called pirates.

And trustworthy people are really hard to find, first, that person must have the spirit of not being afraid of death.
