14 Repayment

Gu Jiao finally understood why the original owner and Gu Xiaoshun could play together. Their IQs were basically in the same level.

What Gu Jiao made today was stewed with mushrooms from pheasant. Although the pheasant tasted delicious, the meat was tighter than that of poultry. She stewed it in a large iron pot for two hours before it was stewed.

She also made a refreshing cold fungus, shredded white radish, and the main food was white rice and corn flour pancakes baked in an iron pot.

Although Xiao Liulang only took the final exam, Gu Jiao still attached great importance to it, so she killed all the chickens to celebrate with Xiao Liulang. But she didn't say this.

"Go and call your brother-in-law to have a meal." She took off the baked pancake and said to Gu Xiaoshun.

"Hey!" Gu Xiaoshun went there happily.

Xiao Liulang just finished copying a book.

Some outstanding candidates who pass the imperial examination or Jinshi will borrow books and notes with their own annotations and sell them to other candidates after being admitted. This kind of book is more expensive than ordinary books, but many candidates still flock to it.

Xiao Liulang's calligraphy is pleasing to the eye, and the books he copied are the best sellers.

"Brother-in-law! It's time to eat!" Gu Xiaoshun poked into a small head through the crack in the door.

It’s better to be thick-skinned. It’s obvious that I bullied someone a few days ago, but now I feel so intimate like that.

Xiao Liulang's expression was as cold as ever, and he did not show any surprise because of Gu Xiaoshun's change in attitude. Of course, he did not show any shame to Gu Xiaoshun with his past ignorance.

Gu Xiaoshun suddenly raised it and was quite comfortable with his brother-in-law.

The three of them sat down to have a meal.

Gu Xiaoshun first picked up a piece of mushroom. In my impression, his sister doesn’t cook, so it was the first time he tasted his sister’s skills, but he didn’t expect it to be so delicious!

He picked up another piece of chicken.

sky!

He was so delicious that he was about to cry!

Gu Jiao scooped out two big chicken legs, one of Xiao Liulang and one of Gu Xiaoshun.

The chicken legs were also stewed to taste, and the gravy was full. After biting it, Gu Xiaoshun felt that he was about to ascend to heaven.

Xiao Liulang was very calm.

But if Gu Jiao knew his former appetite, she would probably not think so.

The two of them quickly finished a bowl of rice. Gu Xiaoshun went to serve the rice. He saw that Xiao Liulang's bowl was empty and said, "Brother-in-law, please serve you a bowl too!"

"Yes." Xiao Liulang did not refuse.

It is unknown whether he did not reject his kindness or his brother-in-law.

Gu Xiaoshun went to serve the rice in a casual manner.

This is the most comfortable meal Gu Xiaoshun has ever eaten. It tastes good and the atmosphere at the dinner table is also good. Although his sister and brother-in-law don’t talk, he can speak! The three of them were having a great time!

After dinner, Xiao Liulang helped Gu Jiao clean up the dishes and Gu Xiaoshun went to the backyard to chop firewood.

After entering the stove, Xiao Liulang suddenly put a wallet at Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao looked at him strangely.

"Home use," he said.

Xiao Liulang gave Gu Jiao two taels of silver, which he earned from copying books for more than a month, and he only had a dozen coins left. However, the book he had almost finished copying, and he should be able to get it to the town in two days to exchange for money.

Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows and looked at the purse on the stove, took it over and took it away.

After packing the stove, Gu Jiao went to the entrance of the village to fetch water. Gu Xiaoshun took off her shoulder pole: "Sister, rest, I'll do such a rough job!"

He carried the shoulder pole and left, but Gu Jiao couldn't stop him even if she wanted to stop him.

At this moment, everyone was eating in the room, and no one came out to fetch water. He occupied the ancient well alone, and was fetching water. Two mighty men rode their horses toward this side, and stopped beside Gu Xiaoshun without saying a word.

The two of them turned over and dismounted.

Gu Xiaoshun felt a bitter murderous aura.

He was a little villain in the village. He saw that the other party had practiced martial arts. All the villains in the village were not matched by any of them.

"Are you from this village?" asked one of the strong men.

"Uh...yes, are you doing something?" Gu Xiaoshun asked blankly.

"We are here to find someone!" The strong man showed off a broken umbrella and asked fiercely, "Have you seen this umbrella?"

Why haven’t you seen it before? That’s his sister’s umbrella!

Gu Xiaoshun was in a bad mood.

"Have you seen it?" The strong man narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"I...I, I..." Gu Xiaoshun stuttered. What did his sister do? How could such a terrible person come to her?

"Boy." The strong man poked out his thick big hand and gently pressed Gu Xiaoshun's shoulder, "I advise you to tell the truth, otherwise I will ask someone else..."

This man is so strong that he can't move half of his body!

Gu Xiaoshun gritted his teeth: "It's mine!"

The strong man was stunned.

Exchanged a look with his companion.

The strong man withdrew his hand and asked suspiciously: "Your umbrella? Are you sure?"

Gu Xiaoshun's calves had actually begun to become weak, but he said stubbornly: "Of course I'm sure of my own umbrella! There is a mark on the umbrella handle, and the word "small" was written, and I engraved it with my own hands!"

The next few sentences were true. He was bored at that time and engraved his name on the handle of his sister's fan, but he could only write a small word.

Of course, the strong men knew that there were words on the umbrella handle, so as soon as he spoke, the strong men believed most of them.

"So, you were the one who went to the back mountain that day?"

"It's me!"

"It's you who stepped on our master's face?"

"……yes!"

"You made our master's arm?"

“…yes! They are all!”

"You also pierced the needle hole on your butt?"

Gu Xiaoshun almost staggered and fell down. Sister, my dear sister, why are you running to pierce someone’s butt and playing?

Gu Xiaoshun took a deep breath and closed his eyes: "Yes, yes, yes! All! If you don't believe me, go and ask, who else can do such a thing except me, Gu Xiaoshun?"

Gu Xiaoshun felt that he was going to be beaten to death here today, but the imagined pain did not come. He opened his eyes carefully and saw the two strong men taking a big step back and bowing deeply to him!

"My benefactor! We finally found you!"

Gu Xiaoshun: “…”

"Sister! Sister!" Gu Xiaoshun ran into the stove like a reincarnation, "I seem to have been in trouble!"

"Speak softly, your brother-in-law is studying." Gu Jiao made a booing gesture at him.

Gu Xiaoshun cried and told Gu Jiao all the things about the village entrance: "...Sister, what are you doing now? What kind of benefactor? Have they cheated me?"

"So that's how it is." Gu Jiao nodded thoughtfully when she remembered what happened on the mountain that day, "Didn't you ask who they are?"

Gu Xiaoshun drooped his little head: "I forgot to ask."

"Have they left?" Gu Jiao said.

"Not yet." Gu Xiaoshun cried.

Gu Jiao put down her broom: "Okay, you're waiting for me here."

"Sister, don't go!" Gu Xiaoshun grabbed her.

"It's okay." Gu Jiao smiled and headed towards the entrance of the village.

Gu Xiaoshun didn't know what his sister said to the two of them, but in short, they left obediently.

As soon as dawn the next day, a carriage drove into the village and stopped outside the Gu family gate.

An elegant middle-aged man walked down the carriage.

Today I am cooking in the big room, and Zhou and Zhou Yue'e got up early.

Zhou Yue'e carried a basket on her back and went to the field to cut pig grass. When she opened the door, she saw a middle-aged man who was about to knock on their door and a carriage behind her.

Zhou Yue'e had never seen this posture before and was stunned.

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "May I ask, is this Gu Lizheng's home?"

Zhou Yue'e turned around and ran into the house: "...Mom, mom! Someone is looking for grandpa!"

The one who came out was Gu Changhai.

Gu Changhai is the eldest son of Mr. Gu. He occasionally follows Mr. Gu to the yamen to do business, which is more knowledgeable than most people in the village.

The other party saw that it was quite famous.

Gu Changhai said politely: "My father is washing up, you are..."

The middle-aged man bowed and smiled: "I am the manager of Tianxiang Academy. I came here to send admission documents to Mr. Gu today."

Don’t you get the admission documents from the town by yourself? Can you still deliver them from the people from the academy in person?

Did Dashun do the exam too well?

Gu Changhai felt that his waist was straighter, so he proudly called into the house: "Dashun, the academy has sent you the admission documents!"
