At this moment, Zhang Ke heard these words, as if he had a sugar in his mouth, with a grin on the corner of his mouth.

Gu Xiaoqing watched Zhang Ke's reaction calmly. She didn't want to give Zhang Ke hope, but behind the hope was disappointment.

Gu Xiaoqing was no longer in the mood to go grocery shopping anymore, her eyes drifted far away to the direction of the city center, Ling Zihao was living a happy life now, and she felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.

"Gu Xiaoqing, don't you want to go shopping?" Zhang Ke stood in front of Gu Xiaoqing and blocked her way.

Gu Xiaoqing glanced at Zhang Ke calmly, and said leisurely: "Zhang Ke, you can call me Miss Xiaoqing from now on, it will be more kind."

Zhang Ke shook his head reluctantly. He didn't really want to recognize Gu Xiaoqing as his sister, so he looked at her in a dilemma.

Gu Xiaoqing glared at Zhang Ke, this matter was not discussed.

Zhang Ke pursed his lips, and shouted helplessly: "Sister Xiaoqing."

Zhang Ke felt that it was awkward to shout like this, and felt uncomfortable. Gu Xiaoqing curled up her lips and smiled in satisfaction, patted his shoulder and walked towards home.

Gu Xiaoqing saw a group of people outside her house from a distance, she squinted her eyes and looked at them coldly.

Zhang Ke also saw the group of people, and was startled. He pointed in the direction of the house and said doubtfully, "Sister Xiaoqing, why are all those people surrounded there?"

Gu Xiaoqing frowned, pursed her thin lips, and quickened her pace: "You'll know when you go back and have a look."

A bad premonition rose in Gu Xiaoqing's mind, and now she can only take one step at a time.

Zhang Ke nodded heavily, and followed Gu Xiaoqing's pace towards the house.

Gu Xiaoqing put Duoduo on the ground, and walked to the middle of the group of people with brisk steps. The people around were in a mess, and when they saw her coming, they immediately fell silent.

"May I ask you what's the matter." Gu Xiaoqing said unceremoniously. She was protected by others before, but now it's her turn to protect her. What she wants is to be able to be alone.

The village chief looked at Gu Xiaoqing coldly with snake-like eyes, his eyes were full of malice and anger, and he snorted displeasedly: "Are you the owner of this house?"

Gu Xiaoqing remained silent, nodding her head as a tacit consent.

A sly smile appeared on the corner of the township chief's mouth, and he said coldly: "Since you admit it, it's fine, here is the contract, please take a look."

The fear in Gu Xiaoqing's heart was magnified, she took the contract, and opened the yellowed contract with her slender fingers.

Gu Xiaoqing looked at it slowly, her pupils constricted, and she looked at the mayor with puzzled eyes: "This is signed by the owner of the previous house. I don't know what the mayor means?"

The mayor stared at Gu Xiaoqing with disdain, and said in shock: "Don't you understand what I mean? It means that you have to pay back the money for the previous person."

The mayor pointed to the people behind him, and a group of people behind him murmured loudly about paying back the money. Gu Xiaoqing crossed her arms impatiently.

Gu Xiaoqing glanced at the head of the township with cold eyes, it turned out that he was the one who made the old man in the temple look like a human and ghost, a nameless anger rose in her heart.

"I think the mayor has seen it clearly. It's someone else who clearly signed it, not me, Gu Xiaoqing. Then why should I be taken advantage of?"

Gu Xiaoqing clenched her fists angrily, did she think she was easy to bully?Or it could be that she discovered the mayor's secret, and he came here to make things difficult for her.

No matter what the possibility is, the township head has objections to her, and a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

The mayor didn't seem to expect that Gu Xiaoqing was an eloquent person, his expression was dull, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said unhurriedly: "That's what I said, but there is also a treaty in this contract. , you can take a closer look."

Gu Xiaoqing glanced at the township head's proud eyes, and secretly shouted that it was not good. She read the document carefully, and found a contract under the last page: the unpaid money will be compensated by the person who lives in the house.

Gu Xiaoqing squeezed her fingers tightly, and looked at the elder sister in the crowd: "Elder sister, I remember you didn't mention this to me at the beginning, right?"

Gu Xiaoqing seemed to have fallen into a trap, and this sense of restraint made her very uncomfortable.

The elder sister came out obediently, looking at Gu Xiaoqing helplessly: "Xiaoqing, I..."

"Sister, I don't blame you, I'll have a good talk with the village head." Gu Xiaoqing tried her best to use a calm tone so as not to let herself go berserk.

Gu Xiaoqing suppressed her anger, and if someone wanted to find fault with her, she would accept it. She was not a soft persimmon, who could be flattened and rounded by others.

Gu Xiaoqing guarded her eldest sister behind her, and looked at the head of the village with indifferent eyes: "Head of the township, I am a foreigner. If you had made it clear, I would not have come here at all. But now, you want to force me Pay back the money?"

The mayor cleared his throat, looked at Gu Xiaoqing with cloudy old eyes, and sneered from the bottom of his heart, it was this woman who discovered his secret, and she must never keep it.

The mayor snorted coldly, pointed at the crowd, and said coldly: "I won't force you, but you have to give the villagers an explanation."

The township head looked at Gu Xiaoqing with complacent eyes. He would definitely not be able to defeat her alone, but with the villagers gathered together, he was not afraid of her at all. She was like a clown.

"Explanation? The explanation is that I don't admit this matter at all." Gu Xiaoqing stared at the village chief with a sinister gaze. She thought that the village chief was a good person, but now it seems that it is not worth mentioning.

Gu Xiaoqing is firm in her position and will never admit this matter.

Zhang Ke stood aside and watched for a long time before he realized what was going on.

"Major, it's clear that you are the one who spouted blood. We don't know about it at all. Why do you want us to pay back the money for the previous person? Do you think we have been taken advantage of?"

Zhang Keyi was filled with indignation, his chest was full of anger and said angrily, he used his generous body to block the petite Gu Xiaoqing, her nose was sore.

Zhang Ke looked at the mayor coldly. He would never compromise on this matter, and the worst would be a lawsuit.

"You are Gu Xiaoqing's younger brother, right? It's just you. I'm not forcing you, but the folks behind me need money. You see, Aunt Zhang's family is the only one supporting her. She needs money... "

The mayor's face was full of regret, and he held Aunt Zhang's hand distressedly, and the corners of his eyes were slightly moist, as if he was really thinking about them.

Gu Xiaoqing couldn't help applauding, and with a faint smile on her lips, she walked around to Zhang Ke: "The township chief, it's a pity not to award you an Oscar."

Gu Xiaoqing shook her head regretfully. The mayor's performance was so good that she couldn't help applauding him.

The mayor glared at Gu Xiaoqing angrily. He didn't understand what Gu Xiaoqing meant, but it must be something bad. "Gu Xiaoqing, let me ask you, whether you still haven't paid back the money."

Gu Xiaoqing straightened her back, with a smile on her brows, and said softly: "Mayor, can I talk to the villagers?"

The mayor looked at Gu Xiaoqing suspiciously, not knowing what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd, he nodded suspiciously, agreeing, anyway, she couldn't afford to make any big waves.

Gu Xiaoqing walked to the middle of the villagers, and was held by Zhang Ke's arm: "Sister Xiaoqing, let me go and talk."

Gu Xiaoqing looked at Zhang Ke with unsure eyes, can he do this?
Zhang Ke slapped his chest swearingly, and said loudly: "I can do it, trust me."

Gu Xiaoqing didn't speak, her eyes wandered around Zhang Ke's body, making way for him.

Zhang Ke walked up to the villagers with heavy steps, glanced at them coldly, and said softly: "Everyone be quiet, I want to ask you a question. If it were you, would you be willing to replace a Does the stranger pay back the money?"

After listening to what Zhang Ke said, the villagers bowed their heads and began to discuss in whispers, shaking their heads while looking at the village chief.

"My sister and I came here from other places. The folk customs here are simple and honest, and then we came here. Now you are forcing us to pay back the money. Who will dare to come here in the future." Zhang Ke said sadly.

Gu Xiaoqing silently praised Zhang Ke. He used empathy to impress them. This method is also a good way.

Seeing that something was wrong, the mayor winked at one of the people in the crowd. He squeezed his fingers tightly, determined to bring Gu Xiaoqing down.

"You're right, but we need money." A young boy said loudly, Zhang Ke's face collapsed instantly, it was clearly here to tear down the stage.

Gu Xiaoqing held Zhang Keyu's hand that was about to explode, and her eyeballs moved.

Zhang Ke held his stomach full of anger and had nowhere to explode, staring viciously at the proud young man.

"That's right, it's clearly written in the contract, and we just followed the contract." The villagers clamored, and Gu Xiaoqing was bound to make a choice.

Gu Xiaoqing glanced at the head of the township with her cold eyes, and the head of the township innocently touched his nose and smiled mischievously.

The villagers walked step by step, forcing Gu Xiaoqing and the others to push them to the door. She looked at the group of people sullenly, and shouted loudly: "I will compensate you."

Zhang Ke held Gu Xiaoqing's hand in disbelief, took her aside, and asked in disbelief: "We have so much money from there, but that's fifty thousand, we have so much money there."

There was fine sweat on Zhang Ke's forehead, and even a thin layer of sweat from the palms of his hands, because they didn't have so much money at all.

There was a helpless smile on the corner of Gu Xiaoqing's mouth: "Otherwise, what else can I do, let them demolish this house?"

Gu Xiaoqing never considered the idea of ​​escaping because she knew it was impossible.

Gu Xiaoqing looked at Zhang Ke with firm eyes, and smiled softly: "Trust me, I have a way."

Zhang Ke let go of Gu Xiaoqing's hand helplessly, and watched Gu Xiaoqing walk upstairs, but he was helpless.

Gu Xiaoqing opened the box and found a bracelet from the inside. With tears in her eyes, she stroked it with her hands. Brother Long bought it for her. She didn't know it until she found it in her pocket when she was flipping through her clothes. of.

"I will redeem you back at that time." Gu Xiaoqing looked at the bracelet firmly, her eyes filled with reluctance and distress.

Until there was a knock on the door outside, Gu Xiaoqing wiped away her tears, held it in her hand and walked out slowly.

Gu Xiaoqing walked outside the door and spread her hands. The jewelry on the bracelet exuded a soft light, and the township chief looked at the things in her hands greedily.

"It's all inlaid with diamonds. It's worth far more than 5 yuan. I hope you can keep it. I will bring cash to redeem it." Gu Xiaoqing said loudly, her cold gaze look at everyone.

The head of the township snorted coldly: "You want to fool us with this broken stone? At least one thing must be produced before we can trust you, otherwise the villagers will not be convinced."

Gu Xiaoqing tightly clenched the bracelet in her hand, staring at the village head angrily.The folks talked a lot, and it was the guy who took the lead again.

Zhang Ke suppressed the excited Gu Xiaoqing, walked into the room and took out something - a guitar.

"Zhang Ke, what are you doing, I don't allow it, put it back." Gu Xiaoqing saw Zhang Ke walking out with his most precious guitar.

Zhang Ke ignored Gu Xiaoqing, took out the guitar directly, and said leisurely to the folks: "This is the guitar I have always carried with me, and it is also the most valuable thing on me, but I will leave it to you guys." I have one condition, that is, I can't be him."

The mayor's lustful eyeballs have been fixed on these two things, wishing to snatch them immediately and keep them as his own.
