Chapter 88: Confession with Master

As soon as these words came out, the room was much quieter, and they were all anxiously waiting for Xu Ling's answer.

It is not a good reputation to be arrested and imprisoned by the government these years.

Fortunately, the Gu family kept the secret for Xu Ling, so everyone in the township knew about it.

That time, Gu Daliang came back and planned to sell the land to raise money, and the reason for saying it to the outside world was that Xu Ling had made a lot of money outside, and he needed to use the money for a while and a half.

Some people in the village were suspicious, but Gu Daliang pretended to be decent, and the two families colluded, and no one said anything about it.

Even when someone from Li Cuicui's mother's family asked, Li Cuicui said that she had a body and didn't worry about these things.

Therefore, everyone in the village guessed that Xu Ling was making money outside, and he wanted to take Gu Daliang to make money too.

But for the people of the Xu family and the Gu family, they pretended to have smiling faces outside, and they were anxious when they came back.

Especially Gu Zhen came back with Xu Ping and Xu An and told them that Xu Ling was released from prison. How he got out of prison is also very clear.

When Gu Litian came back from his conscription, he was always worried about it, and he didn't know when Xu Ling would come back.

Now that Xu Lingpan is back, these things should always be made clear.

Xu Ling also understands what his father-in-law means, and the people sitting in this room are all people who can be trusted.

He didn't hide it from everyone, but told everyone what happened in prison that day.

Only then did everyone know that Xu Ling was stained with the light of bandits, and even the county magistrate was killed, and Xu Ling, the wronged prisoners, ran away, and no one thought about arresting Xu Ling for a while.

"Then you're not going to get caught again, are you?" Gu Litian was worried.

Xu Ling reassured his father-in-law, "I returned to Lingbao Town that day and did business there again, it's been almost a month, and I haven't seen anyone know that I escaped." ”

"Besides, I haven't done those bad things in the first place, and I'm not afraid of shadows."

Xu Shi hurriedly said: "Yes! My son won't kill anyone! It's all those people who wronged him, and if you want me to say that it's still the one named Wang Zhu who should be arrested! ”

Liu also agreed, agreeing with her.

Gu Litian reluctantly accepted this explanation, "The matter has not yet been settled, even if we worry, it is useless, you still have to be careful, don't offend people, provoke some insiders to expose you." ”

The heart of guarding against people is indispensable, Gu Litian has seen more than Xu Ling, and he can't help but mention him a few words.

Xu Ling said yes again and again, and talked about a piece of good news, "I have made enough money, and I will go to the Wang family tomorrow to repay the money." I still want to build a new house, but I don't know where to find someone? ”

When it came to building a house, Xu Ling told Gu Litian last time he came back, and he also promised to help Xu Ling find good wood.

Who knew that something went wrong halfway, and Gu Litian delayed the matter.

"There are people in our village who can build houses, and tomorrow I will go to the village below to find someone to ask."

Gu Daliang's wife, Li Cuicui, interjected: "One of my aunts married to Youping Village, their village is at the foot of the mountain, there are many trees, and someone must sell them." ”

There is great power in numbers, and in a short time, everyone will finalize what they will do tomorrow.

Liu pulled Xu to get up and said: "Ah Ling finally came back, I will go to the village to buy a few fish, and then come back with a pot of wine, and you will have a good drink tonight!" ”

Xu Ling hurriedly got up and called Xu Ping over, "Mother-in-law, just ask Xu Ping and Xu An to go, you can rest." ”

gave Xu Ping and Xu An 200 yuan, and Xu Ling said again: "Go to our house when you come back, there is an old man at home, you invite him to dinner." ”

"Remember to buy some fish, and bring any meat and vegetables that can be drunk in the car at home."

Xu Ping Xu An took the order and ran away quickly with the money.

Gu Zhen said: "Where is the old man at home?" ”

The eldest girl also looked up at her father curiously.

Xu Ling explained: "It was the master I invited to Xu Ping and Xu An, a scholar. ”

Xu Shi was surprised: "Why do you still invite a master back!" Where is this going to let him live? ”

You must know that the Xu family only has two rooms.

Xu Ling said with a smile: "He is not picky about where to sleep, even if he sleeps in the firewood room, when the new house is built, there will be a place to rest." ”

Gu Dahao said curiously: "Isn't it okay to send Xu Ping to a private school?" Why do you still invite a master to come home? ”

Gu Yu's eyes flickered, as if he thought of something.

Gu Litian snorted and said, "I'm afraid that the person who ran out with him will be kind enough to pick them up." ”

Xu Ling was seen through by his father-in-law, and couldn't help touching his head, and said with a smile: "He has read books, and he has never harmed anyone, and he is an unlucky ghost like me." When I saw that he was homeless, I thought about taking him to my house, and it would cost a lot of money to invite him to a western seat outside, so we could just give him food and take care of him. ”

"When the children of my brother and sister-in-law are born, won't there be a master to teach them to read?"

When Xu Ling said this, the Gu family had no objections. Gu Daliang's mouth is almost grinning behind his ears, his son can read! That's a great thing!

Gu Litian was a pessimist, shook his head and said: "I don't know if I have the brain to read, if I can really read the name like the Zhao family, maybe I can help you." ”

Since ancient times, officials and businessmen have not been separated.

Xu Ling said seriously: "There are a lot of children in our family, Xu Ping Xu An, the eldest girl and the child in the womb of my sister-in-law, I will have children with me in the future, and a master can teach many children in our family, no loss." ”

Fan Shiqing squatted at the bottom of the cart and suddenly sneezed, he didn't know that his fate had been arranged by Xu Ling.

I waited in the courtyard for a long time, but I didn't see Xu Ling come back.

As he was muttering, he suddenly saw two children running quickly towards the yard.

Xu Ping Xu An saw that there was an old man in the family as the eldest brother said, and asked in unison, "Who are you?" Why did you come home with my eldest brother? ”

Along the way, Fan Shiqing listened to Xu Ling talk about his two younger brothers and sisters, and looked the two children in front of him up and down at this time.

I saw that the two children looked a little similar to Xu Ling, the boy was taller, with good facial features, long hands and long legs, but there was a look of not being very smart in his eyes.

The girl was shorter and delicate, with her head tilted across her waist, her eyes dripping, and her palm-sized face full of wit.

Fan Shiqing touched his beard and smiled, knowing that Xu Ling wanted him to teach this man and a woman two children at the same time, and he had the intention to test them.

So he lied and said, "I'm a stinky beggar for food, and when your eldest brother saw that I was pitiful, he brought me back." From now on, I will live in your house, and I will eat your food, and I will eat anything delicious. ”

When Xu Ping heard it, this is okay! Just wanted to scold him for being a stinky and shameless person, and then thought that the person was brought back by the eldest brother, and the words stuck in his throat.

"You ......" for a long time, his face was flushed, "You must be a liar, what did the eldest brother do when he picked up a meal and came back?" ”

Xu An ran over with a grin and pulled Fan Shiqing who was sitting there up, "Grandpa, you must be lying to us, stop playing, come to dinner with us!" ”
