After selling couplets for three days in a row, the villagers in the next village all came to watch Xiao Xiao's performance, and bought a pair of cheap couplets by the way.

In the past few days, Gu Huai and the others have earned nearly six yuan, which is more than Gu Zhongyi's salary in a month.

The Gu family was very happy, Huang Cuicui even touted Gu Huai to the sky, but some people were very unhappy.

That is Yuan Qi, who originally wrote the couplet.

He was known as a scholar, the most educated in the village, having studied in high school.

Originally, writing couplets was his business, and it was also the time when he made the most money in a year, but now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, no one has come to ask him to write couplets.

When he asked, it turned out that it was a few hairy boys from the next village who robbed his business!

Can he bear this?

Absolutely not!

So he went to the door of Gu's house, and then saw the big tiger who was stuffed into an iron bucket and cried.

He has heard of this kid Big Tiger, a famous young man in ten miles and eight towns, and his strength is surprisingly great, and ordinary adults may not be as strong as him when they wrench their wrists.

Why was he actually beaten?

He lifted the weeping tiger out of the bucket:

"Big Tiger, what's wrong?"

How could a big tiger tell an outsider such a shameful thing? He wiped his tears fiercely and said to the scholar:

"Nothing, what are you doing here?"

As we all know, in addition to writing, scholars are very lazy, and they don't like to go out regardless of rain or shine.

Is the sun coming out of the west today? How did he run such a long way?

Of course, the scholar would not tell Xiaohu that he came here for a few money, he thought for a moment and said to Dahu: "I am here to find Gu Huai, he has a bad character, I plan to teach him well." ”

It is true that the original owner is misbehaving, but he has been misbehaving for so long, and he has not seen the scholar have the idea of teaching him. Why do you suddenly have to teach him now?

The big tiger thought about it carefully and knew the reason.

It's just that before he could say anything to the scholar, Gu Huai had already walked back with Xiao Xiao in tow.

Seeing an unfamiliar face, and being able to smell the sour smell on his body from ten meters away, Gu Huai knew who he was.

He knew that the scholar would be impatient to come to the door and be waiting for him.

Gu Huai's expression of no surprise at all surprised the scholar, and even more surprise was yet to come.

Gu Huai said to him: "Come, come in and have two cups of tea?" ”

The scholar hesitated a little.

Gu Huai, a bad boy, won't give himself a laxative, right? You're not going to go in and beat yourself up, are you? No......

Gu Huai: "What?" Don't have the courage to do that? What kind of literati should you be. ”

There is no description of the scholar at all in the original book. However, Gu Huai could see at a glance what kind of character the scholar was.

Just looking at his outfit and dress, as well as the complex and tangled emotions written on his face, you know that this kind of person is best fooled by agitation.

Sure enough, the scholar immediately followed Gu Huai into the dilapidated house.

Dahu didn't want to go in, he waited at the door, waiting for the scholar to come out.

The scholar began to regret when he entered the room, he shouldn't have come in so easily, he should have stood outside and let Gu Huai speak. In case Gu Huai made a move on him, he would immediately shout at the top of his throat, and he would not be beaten.

Now he's out of the way.

The more the scholar thought about it, the more he regretted it, and sat on the bench according to Gu Huai's intentions, and took the boiled water he handed over.

Gu Huai: "You are Yuan Qi, a scholar from the next village?" ”

Yuan Qi didn't dare to nod.

Gu Huai: "As soon as I saw that you had the light of Wenqu Xing, you must be the scholar next door, I heard that your talent has been around for a long time, Xiao Xiao, come here, this is the scholar you have admired for a long time!" ”

Xiao Xiao was confused.

No? When did she worship scholars?

However, the obedience on weekdays still asked her to come over, but looking at the scholar's eyes was really not admiration.

But Yuan Qi couldn't see it.

Since Gu Huai praised him like this, then it must be like this, the little girl in front of him definitely worships herself to death.

Thinking of this, Yuan Qi raised his face slightly.

Xiao Xiao begged for help and looked at Gu Huai: Ah Gu, does this person have a neck pain? Should she be taken to the hospital?

Gu Huai: "Don't you really want scholars to teach you how to write?" If you ask for advice, I won't bother you. ”

After Gu Huai finished speaking, he slipped away.

The scholar is here to find Xiao Xiao who robbed him of his business, and not Gu Huai who is looking for money, so of course Xiao Xiao greeted him, is there anything wrong?

Xiao Xiao coped with the enthusiastic scholars for an afternoon, and lay on the kang exhausted in the evening.

She couldn't figure out what Gu Huai wanted to do.

Could it be his new trick?

Want to make yourself scared of this home, and then sell yourself as a matter of course?

The more Xiao Xiao thought about it, the more likely it became, the more reasonable he became, and he felt that he should be more careful.

However, since she has seen through Gu Huai's tricks, she will definitely not be fooled!

The couplet's business went smoothly, and the scholars not only did not obstruct it, but also vigorously encouraged them to steal their own business.

Because Gu Huai said to him: "In the past, there was Tao Qian, and now there is Yuan Qi, a scholar and a talent, how can he bend his waist for a few cents?" ”

The scholar felt that he was boasting, no, he was right.

He's not a layman, he's a genius, and although he didn't get into college, it's just a small mistake, and besides, so far, there hasn't been a single college student in their village!

With Gu Huai's praise, the scholar didn't earn a penny, but he was happy and satisfied.

Gu Huai also got happiness and satisfaction, as well as eleven yuan.

Huang Cuicui got two pieces and was satisfied, and let Gu Huai keep the flowers for himself.

Gu Huai took a few little girls to the provincial capital and ate the big meat patty that Gu Xiaoliu had in mind, as well as the big meat bun and mutton soup......

After walking around, Gu Xiaoliu felt that Brother Gu was simply inhumane, he was the god in her mind, while Gu Xiaowu only felt that his brother was a loser.

Of course, the big meatloaf is really delicious, the big meat bun is not enough to eat, and the mutton soup really tastes good.

After this lap, Gu Huai only had five yuan left in his pocket.

Looking at the broken shoes on his feet and the torn clothes on his body, Gu Huai felt that the second step was to replace this body.

Compared to Gu Xiaowu and Gu Xiaoliu's excitement, Xiao Xiao couldn't get excited at all.

As she ate her second patty, she wondered, is this the last meal? She's going to be sold soon? Thinking about it, she ate two more large meat buns.

It was only in the evening that they went home together.

Along the way, Gu Huai didn't mention the matter of selling her.

When he got home, Xiao Xiao thought to himself, could it be that he had misunderstood, Gu Huai really didn't plan to sell himself?

So why did he invite himself to eat?

How much is the money?

Xiao Xiao thought about it, it seems that there has been a lot of money recently......

Xiao Xiao's heart, until Gu Huai came to her before going to bed at night, mentioned the highest point.

Gu Huai asked her, "Is the big meat bun delicious?" ”
