"I've never seen such a stupid child, and others will follow him as soon as they are deceived."

"You know she's just a kid." Gu Jiu looked at Old Man Gu, and his eyes gradually became cold.

But the other party didn't care about this, but looked at Gu Jiu with contempt and a little smugness, and asked, "She regrets it?" ”

"What?"

"Didn't she regret letting you come back and ask me?" Old Man Gu asked proudly.

Why do you say proud, because Gu Jiu can't accurately describe that face in words.

It was a complacent, disgusting, contemptuous, self-conceived see-through, and an image of superiority that he had imposed on himself in an attempt to conceal his own despicability.

That complicated expression is just a smug expression for the time being.

"It's not."

In Old Man Gu's expression of "I don't believe it, you must have lied", Gu Jiu continued: "She doesn't remember you, why do you regret it?" ”

"Impossible! She received my gift, it's impossible not to remember me! ”

"Gifts?"

"That's right!" Old Man Gu's cloudy eyes showed a bit of tenderness, but in an instant, they turned into disgust: "I exchanged all the food for her for a gift, and she forgot about it?" ”

All the food?

"At that time, the plague and atrocities were almost to the point of cannibalism, and you ...... And a lot of food? ”

"Potatoes. It was the most precious food of the time! ”

Yes?

"That's the only food I have left, and my mother left me! Since she didn't want to marry me, why did she accept my things? ”

Gu Jiu: ...... You really have a problem with your brain, who told you that you can change a daughter-in-law if you give a potato? Besides, people have come all the way to save people, and if you give a potato, people think it is a thank you from the local people.

Looking at the person in front of him, the more Gu Jiu looked at it, the more disgusted he became, and he wanted to kick him to death.

"So you know my mother's true identity from the beginning."

Hum. Old Man Gu sneered, the facts speak for themselves.

Gu Jiu got up and opened the door, and when he left, he turned around and asked, "Don't you think you owe her an apology?" She was supposed to be innocent and carefree. ”

"Apologize? Old man, I lack her to eat or lack her to drink! She ......"

Without waiting for Old Man Gu to finish speaking, Gu Jiu slammed the door shut.

Outside the door, Gu Wensheng had already been beaten half to death.

"Why is it so miserable all of a sudden?" Gu Jiu looked at Shao Baisi and asked in a low voice.

"After that person was told to you, he also felt stupid, and he was reluctant to attack himself, so he could only beat him."

Gu Jiu: ......

She reviewed her family village today for a total of two purposes, the first purpose was to explore whether Old Man Gu was involved in the events of the year, and try to understand the truth of the year; The second is to deal with the scum of the time.

"I thought you were going to kill someone." When Gu Jiu passed by Shao Baisi's side, he heard the other party whisper.

"The world is not a land of bliss, and it is easier to suffer when you are alive."

"You stay and watch Gu Wensheng." When he was about to open the door, Gu Jiu said.

Gu Wensheng is a possible threat to her, she has to ensure that he can't escape, and there is no possibility of rising.

"Okay." Shao Baisi simply responded, anyway, he looked at Shi Xuyao very unpleasantly now, and he stayed and said that he might be able to find a chance to take revenge again.

When he went out, the villagers outside immediately surrounded him.

"Xiao Jiu, did you get those things that your eldest aunt had before this?"

"Yes, yes, Xiao Jiu, you also know that the villagers have had a hard time in the past two years."

Hearing this, Gu Jiu nodded, and said with the happy eyes of several villagers: "It really has to be exchanged, after all, it is not easy for anyone." ”

"Yes, yes, it's not easy for anyone these days!"

"But you have to find my grandfather for this, and I can't do anything to find me."

Hearing Gu Jiu's words, one of them immediately sighed: "Gu Jiu, your uncle doesn't like to hear what you say." That thing came into your house, and whatever you say, it was stained. You see that you are so well dressed, and you want to live well in the city, so you don't have to get all this light! ”

"No, no." Gu Jiu stopped, looked at the man who spoke, and continued: "But I don't want to help people who don't know how to be grateful. Uncle, if I remember correctly, if I hadn't provided food and water, you would have died twice. ”

"As for the help of the imperial court you mentioned, I haven't enjoyed it, and naturally I haven't repaid it." Laughing to death, the original owner lived that hard life, and still ate emergency food? Not to mention eating, I haven't seen it.

"Haha, what are you talking nonsense about!" Seeing that the situation was not good, one of them immediately stabbed the man who had just spoken: "Xiao Jiu is our benefactor, besides, didn't we come today to ask if there is a solution?" I'm not here to ask for something! ”

Joke, his daughter-in-law is still smoking silk to earn Gu Jiu's silver, what if she is annoyed and doesn't let them do it? Isn't that a big loss?

Gu Jiu knew the intentions of several people, and he didn't say anything, so he turned around and provoked another topic: "Do any of you know who went with Gu Zhiqi or staggered the time to go to the old Gu Temple?" ”

When the words fell, the faces of several people changed, and they all shook their heads.

They want to pick up benefits, but it doesn't mean that they are stupid, what to say, and what to say is easy to be excluded or can be distinguished.

"In this case, then you can pay attention to the information, and if you have definite evidence, you can come to me at any time with evidence."

"Once it is verified, a reward of twenty taels of silver will be awarded, which will be valid for a long time."

Twenty taels!

As soon as they heard the silver, the eyes of several people widened smoothly.

"Xiao Jiu, are you serious, do you really have twenty taels of silver?"

Gu Jiu nodded: "Yes!" I'm going to go to the village chief's house now, and I hope the village chief can help inform everyone about this. ”

"It's valid for a long time, so can you find evidence at any time?"

"Everything."

"Really?"

"If I lie, the whole village will not come together to crusade against me."

Hearing this, several people nodded thoughtfully, and two of them glanced at each other and quietly moved away from each other. Gu Jiu saw it in his eyes, but didn't say anything.

"Xiao Jiu, the person who was found in this way may not be the person at the time, and there is no evidence to guarantee the absolute correctness of this thing except for the victim's identification or arrest on the spot."

"The girl at the time...... It's gone, there is no one to identify, and there is no way to catch it on the spot. Therefore, in the end, it can only be a pure waste of time. ”

In the village chief's house, after listening to Gu Jiu's thoughts, the village chief analyzed.

Gu Jiu nodded: "I know." ”

"Huh? So what do you mean by that? ”

"It makes more sense to stop this from happening again than to eradicate the mistakes of the past. I really can't find exactly who was at the time, but this reward can motivate people to stop new mistakes. ”

The village chief was taken aback, he didn't expect Gu Jiu to have this idea at all.

"But there is a downside to this approach." Gu Jiu continued: "That is, there will be people who deliberately frame some people for the sake of silver, so some punishments need to be added to these rewards. ”

"For example: recover the silver taels at all costs, and expel the lying family from Gujia Village."

The village chief looked at Gu Jiu, and his eyes were incredible.

"Good! I'm going to get all the villagers together and talk about it. ”

"Hmm."

When Gu Jiu left, he noticed that Gu Cheng hadn't come back yet, and after thinking about it, he didn't say anything after all.

……

"He's ......"

"Oh, he wants to run, I think Shi Xuyao can't even look at himself, and when he said a few words, Xu Yao couldn't stand it and discounted his legs. It's also good, even if you run, you won't be able to run far. As he spoke, Shao Baisi leaned into Gu Jiu's ear and said softly, "You don't have to worry about him having a chance to turn over." ”

The court stipulates that those who have obtained meritorious service must be perfect, indispensable, disabled, and congenitally deficient.

"Awesome! What about that? Gu Jiu raised his chin and pointed at Gu Ba and asked.

"She?" Shao Baisi looked at Gu Ba with undisguised boredom in his eyes: "She said that she is the life of the rich and noble, and she and I are a match made in heaven." Like a madman, she always tried to pounce on me, and kept nagging me to save her, but I was so impatient that I knocked her unconscious. ”

Save? Why is this word spoken? Gu Jiu didn't speak, and walked over to look at Gu Ba. But before he could squat down, Zhao pounced.

"Xiao Jiu, second aunt begs you, you take Xiaoba away! She's still so young, she can't go to someone's funeral! ”

Zhao was crying breathlessly, and Gu Jiu barely pieced together the matter intermittently: "The son of Zhao Yuanwai in the town died, and he wanted to marry a daughter-in-law to accompany him, so he went to find Gu Ba one after another." ”

"There is nothing that can be done." Gu Jiu took a step back and avoided the Zhao clan. She doesn't think she's a good person, and she can't repay her grievances with virtue.

"Let's go."

"That's it?"

"They can't afford to make waves." Gu Jiu looked at Shi Xuyao and sighed slightly: "As for him, I think he will choose to stay here." ”

The scars caused by love are the hardest to recover, and Shi Xuyao was moved by Shi Yuyan a long time ago.

Gu Jiu and Shao Baisi returned to the town, asking Xiao Er to help them change into a new rope so that they could compare prices and return to Cloud City comfortably.

"Second uncle, what do you think I should do with you? I remember when I was a kid, you slapped me and beat me with a stick. ”

Gu Jiu entered the door and sat next to Gu Youcai and asked with a smile.

"This ...... This, Xiao Jiu, the second uncle asked you to change it back! Yes, we'll be cleared up if you change it back. ”

"I don't like this solution, it's naïve. I'd better sell you, after all, when you were a child, you liked to use this reason to force me to do something. ”

Gu Youcai lay on the ground and looked at Gu Jiu in disbelief: "Xiao Jiu, what are you talking about." The second uncle is a man, and the people who buy and sell are all women. ”

"Little guy." Gu Jiu said seriously: "Second Uncle doesn't know, there are many people in Cloud City who like to be confined." Like the second uncle, although it is not pleasing, it is resistant to badness, and it is also an advantage to use it for a long time. ”

So saying, he instructed the coachman to drag him to the carriage.

"Xiao Jiu, the second uncle was playing with you when he was a child!"

"Xiao Jiu, don't you remember the delicious ones that the second uncle bought for you before?"

"Xiao Jiu, before your grandfather wanted to beat you or the second uncle stopped you!"

"Koku......"

On the carriage, Gu Jiu listened indifferently to the lies made up by Gu Youcai.

Shao Baisi looked at Gu Youcai, who was extremely noisy, and then looked at Gu Jiu, who had not reacted in the slightest, and immediately understood what was going on.

The car drove away from the town quickly, looking at the town farther and farther away, Gu Youcai wanted to jump out of the car several times. At first, Shao Baisi was a little worried about whether he would really get down, but later he found that the worry was completely unnecessary, and he didn't have the courage at all.

The car continued to drive, and when Gu Youcai almost shouted at the top of his voice, Gu Jiu finally opened his mouth.

"Second Uncle doesn't want to go like that?"

"Uh-huh!" Gu Youcai guaranteed that he had never nodded so hard in his life!

"What then? I can't do it and forget it. Gu Jiu said distressedly.

"Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu!" Gu Youcai moved his bound body and moved closer in the direction where Gu Jiu was.

"Xiao Jiu, what do you say you want the second uncle to do? As long as you open your mouth for a long time, the second uncle can also do it for you! Gu Youcai swore solemnly.

"I'm short of money."

Hearing this, Gu Youcai immediately wilted. Who is not short of silver? He also lacks it, but is there anything that can be done? What should not be or what is not.

"Can't the second uncle do it?" Gu Jiu asked.

Gu Youcai smiled awkwardly: "Xiao Jiu, this, this...... How much do you want? ”

"Three or five thousand taels, not much."

Gu Youcai!! You see my life is worth so much silver, don't you?
