Gu Tingcheng: ...... No! Not me! It has nothing to do with me!

This major event, which caused a sensation in the entire Heyin County and was enough to be recorded in the county annals, was indeed not done by Gu Tingcheng himself.

However, it is not in line with the facts to say that there is no slightest connection.

What really caused the "trouble" was the Huo Martial Arts Hall.

When Han Jiaojiao left, the house on the west side changed to a neighbor, which is the Huo family.

The old man of the Huo family is a retired veteran, and he has no other specialties except for his kung fu of killing.

So, he opened a martial arts gym to make a living.

Gu Tingcheng invested all the five hundred taels of silver he earned from the sale of the medicine shop into the Huo Martial Arts Pavilion.

Everyone in the county said that Gu Niangzi had been deceived, and the five hundred taels of silver would definitely be lost.

The words of the people, and the suspicion of saying cool words, also have a certain degree of foresight.

It's true that the business of the martial arts hall is not very good.

In the huge martial arts hall, except for Zhao Qingsong and a few men from the Zhao family and the Gu family, there were no other students at all.

At that time, Gu Tingcheng stupidly suggested, "Why don't you do something else?" ”

Something else?

What can a group of people who dance knives and guns do?

Coincidentally, just after Gu Qingcheng finished saying this sentence that was not constructive, there was news in the market again-

The bandits of Shuangtou Mountain have tied up a wealthy profiteer in the next county.

Old man Huo has a fiery temper, he has been in the army for more than 20 years, and when he heard such evil things, his first reaction was to suppress this group of mountain bandits.

Zhao Qingsong said, "The people of our martial arts hall can be dart masters!" ”

Zhao Qingsong originally wanted to be a wealthy businessman.

was coaxed by his mother and learned martial arts.

And the reason why his mother coaxed him at the beginning was: when he goes out to do business, it is easy to be robbed.

There is a double-headed mountain outside the city, and there are always bloody examples, and Zhao Qingsong is more and more convinced of his mother's words.

This time, hearing that other wealthy businessmen had been tied up, Zhao Qingsong thought of his mother's suggestion a few days ago - increase his side business and become a dart master!

Only then did Old Man Huo realize that he was no longer an officer or soldier of the imperial court, but a retired old man.

He was a little excited, waved his hand, and asked the juniors to do it.

The two grandsons of the Huo family, Huo Qilang and Huo Twelvelang, one is seventeen years old and the other is fourteen years old, both of whom are hot-blooded years.

They hit it off with twelve-year-old Zhao Qingsong-

These three small ones not only increased the business of walking darts, but also secretly rubbed their own darts.

Without any accidents, fourteen-year-old Huo Twelve Lang was robbed by the bandits of Shuangtou Mountain when he was walking a dart!

The person is fine, the goods are lost.

Instead of making money, he had to lose a lot of money.

Old Man Huo couldn't bear it anymore, and early in the morning, he took a group of powerful half-sized sons and killed Shuangtou Mountain.

Then, Twin Heads became history.

The huge cottage, nearly 100 bandits, the dead died, the fleeing, and the caught.

Zhao Qingsong and a few other teenagers pulled the bandits who were tied up into a string of bandits in high spirits, entered the city gate, swaggered through the city, and the entire county was a sensation.

Xinzhi County almost "cried with joy".

stepped on the mother, the day after he arrived, he received the filial piety of Shuangtou Mountain.

Thousands of taels of silver a year, just, just step on the mother so gone.

The key is that he can't be angry yet, and he has to praise these "little heroes".

Huo's martial arts hall became famous in a battle, and Zhao Qingsong also broke through the shadow of his demonic eldest brother and became a heroic boy praised by everyone.

And Zhao Qingsong, who succeeded in suppressing bandits, took the lead and killed thieves bravely when fighting.

The first one rushed into the cottage!

That hearty, that feeling of happy killing, really stimulated Zhao Qingsong.

"A-Niang, I don't want to be a rich businessman, I want to be a general!"

Zhao Qingsong is a young man, and his bright big eyes are full of blood and passion!

Gu Qingcheng pretended to be surprised, but smiled with satisfaction in his heart.

And in the palm of her hand, she held a piece of stationery.

The content of the letter paper is only one sentence: "Gu Niangzi, the life-saving grace of ten taels of silver, a certain repayment!" ”

Who would have thought that the strong man who sold knives back then would fall into the grass.

No one thought that today, a few years later, in order to repay his kindness, he secretly protected Zhao Qingsong and made him famous!

Although Old Man Huo has "retired", he still has a lot of robes in the army.

So, Zhao Qingsong, as well as the two grandsons of the Huo family, all served as soldiers under his arrangement.

Gu Qingcheng asked Zhao Qingsong to go to Zhaojiazhuang and Gujia Village.

Twelve-year-old Zhao Qingsong is no longer a transparent person hiding under the aura of his brother.

He began to show his edge in front of the people of Zhaojiazhuang.

In these years, it is indeed important to pay attention to "good men do not fight soldiers".

However, it also depends on the situation.

Zhao Qingsong is obviously a person with "backers", and his going to serve as a soldier is different from being forcibly conscripted into military service by the government.

In Zhaojiazhuang, there are always more sons, and there are always those who want their sons to earn a future.

Therefore, when Zhao Qingsong left Zhaojiazhuang, he was followed by more than a dozen clan brothers.

As for the Gu family, there is nothing to say.

The Gu family is full of five big and three rough men, although Gu Tingcheng has made the craft of plowing pigs, but not every child and grandchild can learn it.

Gu Butcher's six sons, more than a dozen grandchildren, and great-grandchildren also began to spring up.

There are also more than N grandchildren.

Gu Butcher believed in Zhao Qingyun, and even had a certain trust in Zhao Qingsong.

So, with a wave of his hand, there were ten people from the Gu family.

plus some "relatives" of the Huo family.

The three teenagers actually pulled up a team of thirty people and went directly to the northwest.

Gu Tingcheng cried and sent away his youngest son, the poor "widowed mother", only himself, and N nieces and nephews who served him.

The Huo family on the west side, the huge courtyard, also seemed empty.

"Fifteen-year-old lifter, twelve-year-old little hero! The two sons of the Zhao family, one literate and one martial, will definitely be able to prosper in the future. ”

“…… Wait another three years, if Zhao Qingyun can be admitted to the Jinshi, it will be a good alternative! ”

Old Man Huo, who should have been lonely, did not have the loneliness of his grandson leaving.

He sat under the porch, looked in the direction of the east side, and whispered to his wife.

"It's still shallow. However, the little master's body—"

Yang Niangzi was somewhat unwilling.

But when she thought of some "reality", she had to sigh lowly.

……

It's been another three years.

Zheng Wanjun, who has become a parent, is fighting the best, opening a shop, and giving birth to children, and is very busy.

Ji Keji was not in a hurry to participate in the Spring Festival.

He knew in his heart that he was too late in school, and it was already a miracle that he was able to pass the examination to show talent and lift people.

In the dark, there seems to be such a magical power.

Let him always perform beyond the norm in the examination room.

At the end of the exam, he went back to read the articles he had written, and he felt "amazing" -

Is this an article I made?

The ghost sent God, he followed the same proposition, tried to solve the question again, and then wrote, and the article he wrote was not at the same grade as the article in the examination room!

Ji Keji knows that this should be his true level.

And in the examination room, he was more like he was sheltered by a certain aura, so it went smoothly!

As for that aura—

Ji Keji subconsciously looked in the direction of Zhao Qingyun's house.

Yes, not next door.

After marrying Zheng Wanjun, Ji Keji moved out of the Zheng family.

Relying on his dividends in the printing shop, as well as the "gift money" of some families after the middle lift, Ji Keji bought a small house with two entrances on the front street of the academy.

He is not a son-in-law, let alone an incompetent man who relies on his wife's dowry.

He is grateful for the care of his husband and father-in-law, and he also respects his capable wife, but he always remembers that his surname is Ji, not Zheng!

became a family and moved, but Ji Keji continued to study with Mr. Zheng.

He realized his problem and worked harder.

He took out the energy of working and reading while working in the bookstore, and devoted all his time to studying.

Twelve hours a day, and only two hours of sleep.

Every day is his own house, the academy and the Zheng family, three points and one line.

The affairs of the family, his parents, younger siblings and a group of best in the old mansion, he threw them all to Zheng Wanjun.

If you change to another woman, you may have pressure and emotions.

But, Zheng Wanjun won't!

She is a strong and independent woman, and since she was a child, she has seen her mother Wan Niangzi grasp her outside the house.

Therefore, these things at home are not troubles for her, but challenges.

"No! You have already spent more of your monthly expenses for this month, and you can't advance for the next month. ”

Zheng Wanjun is already very housewife.

The little uncle who is not a weapon, under her strength, does not dare to be a demon.

"Daddy, Auntie, don't secretly stuff money to Xiao Qilang. The monthly case of two taels of silver per month can be worth half a year's expenses of ordinary people, but Xiao Qilang spent it in less than a few days. ”

The Ji family is not a wealthy family, let alone a gentleman.

Besides, what the Ji family was originally like, Zheng Wanjun knew better than anyone else.

Hmph, if it weren't for the Zheng family, would the Ji family be able to live a good life like this now, making slaves call maids and silver for two or two months?

Fortunately, although the in-laws were confused, they were obedient.

The sister-in-law also has some superb, and Zheng Wanjun can easily handle it.

In general, Zheng Wanjun is still very satisfied with her family status and her status at home.

Now just wait for the spring of next year, Xianggong High School is the top three, and she, the heroine of the imperial examination, can become a real winner in life.

After teaching the brother-in-law a lesson and "persuading" her in-laws, Zheng Wanjun held her waist and slowly walked to her main house.

She didn't see that behind her, the brother-in-law and in-laws all showed resentful eyes.

"Auntie, sister-in-law is too domineering!"

"Yes, the eldest brother did rely on Mr. Zheng to get to where he is today, but my sister-in-law is already married to the eldest brother."

"That is, since she married into the Ji family, she is the daughter-in-law of the Ji family. Which daughter-in-law is so disrespectful to her in-laws and mean to her uncle and sister-in-law? ”

Ji Xiaodi and Ji Xiaomei, one left and one right, complained in the ears of Ji Sanlang and his wife.

"No nonsense! In the future, you have to listen to your sister-in-law! ”

Ji Saburo was also aggrieved in his heart, but he knew that his son had not yet been admitted to the Jinshi and had not yet become an official.

Their Ji family still needs to rely on the big tree of the Zheng family......
