When Zhang Liulang heard that he still had to eat, he immediately felt his stomach bulging, covered his stomach and said weakly: Are you still eating?

Gu Jingyun raised his eyebrows, I heard that the food at the roadside stalls is also good, I plan to choose some good ones to try.

Zhang Liulang's saliva came down, and he wanted to eat, but what should he do if his stomach is full?

His stomach suddenly growled, Zhang Liulang's complexion changed, he clutched his stomach and said, Oops, I have to go to the toilet!

He looked at Gu Jingyun with a flushed face, and said anxiously: I want to go to the toilet, what should you do?

Gu Jingyun waved his hand indifferently and said: You go on your own, are we going to lose ourselves?

Then you are not allowed to go too far, it is on this street, Zhang Liulang still remembered the advice of the adults, and repeatedly told Gu Jingyun, You must not go too far, or I will not find you.

Gu Jingyun nodded perfunctorily, Zhang Liulang skipped him and looked at Li Baolu, insisting: Baolu, you have to be obedient, you are not allowed to go too far, you know?

Brother Liulang, don't worry, we'll just play on this street.

Zhang Liulang let out a breath, turned around and ran towards the toilet.

It's really long-winded, Gu Jingyun pouted, dragged Li Baolu and went to the stall, Go and see if there's anything special, we'll bring some for uncle and the others.

Qianmen Street is the busiest street in the county, and it is enough for them to stroll here, neither Li Baolu nor Gu Jingyun thought of turning to other streets.

There are everything sold on the street, such as bamboo dragonflies and windmills, exquisite hairpins, and well-made bronze mirrors...

There are also all kinds of tea and food that I have never seen before.

Gu Jingyun first took Li Baolu to look at the children's toys, and asked her, What do you like?

Li Baolu asked back, What about you?

Gu Jingyun glanced at the stalls with sparkling eyes, and finally picked out a wooden horse that could be assembled, a bamboo dragonfly that was braided vividly, and finally asked for a small basket.

Li Baolu chose a windmill.

Only then did Gu Jingyun pay with satisfaction.

Having bought all the toys he wanted, Gu Jingyun dragged Li Baolu to see the tea leaves contentedly.

Uncle likes to drink tea. When the capital sends us money, there are some tea leaves in between, but after all, there are not enough tea leaves. No matter how much you save, uncle can't drink enough. Let's see what good tea is here and bring some for uncle.

Gu Jingyun pulled Li Baolu straight to several stalls selling tea, his eyes casually glanced at the stalls next to him, and he couldn't help but pause when he saw the jade biscuits on the stall next to him.

Li Baolu also saw that piece of jade, which was clear and green, shiny and delicate, even if she didn't know jade, she knew it was a good thing, let alone Gu Jingyun?

When the Qin family was exiled, they brought very few things with them, but Qin Wenyin brought a lot of things with them, besides calligraphy and painting, jade was the most.

And all those jade wares are fine works, Gu Jingyun has played with them since he was a child and was taught by his uncle and aunt, how could he not recognize this piece of jade?

Gu Jingyun pulled Li Baolu forward, pointed to the jade bi and asked the stall owner, Can I have a look at it?

The stall owner's eyes lit up, and he was a little disappointed when he saw that the two children were asking, he waved his hand and said, Just look at it, but don't damage it, this jade is precious, you can't afford it.

Gu Jingyun picked up the jade bi, and it was cold in his hands, and the coldness penetrated into his heart, but after holding it in his hand for a while, the jade bi gradually warmed up.

Looking at the appearance of the jade bi, it is clear and emerald green, shiny and delicate, obviously well maintained, this is by no means maintained by a peddler who would put it together with other jade for sale.

Gu Jingyun asked: Where did this piece of jade come from?

The stall owner glanced at it, and said: It was collected from someone else. If you want me, the little guest officer, I will give you a cheaper price. This is a good jade, and there may not be some in the shop.

oh?

The stall owner immediately said: I didn't lie to you, this jade was bought from a prisoner, and those criminals hid it privately, do you think it is a good thing? If you buy it, the little guest officer will definitely not lose money.

Gu Jingyun turned the jade bi in his hand and said nothing, Li Baolu said in a childish voice: Uncle lied, the sin village does not allow shopkeepers to enter, how do you accept the goods?

Hey, why am I lying to you? My aunt's niece married into the criminal village. She collected the things and sold them to me. Is it fake? I have bought someone, and I specifically ordered him to be tormented, he can’t come out, and he can’t bear the hardships, naturally these good things can only be sold to other people at a low price, so if the little guest officer wants it, this is a good time.”

The peddler's eyes were also sharp, and he saw that the two children in front of him were not short of money, so he said with all his might, The little guest officer is also very lucky, I just happened to have one here, otherwise I would go to the store to look for it, and I couldn't find such a good one. Not only that, but it’s also expensive! This is something you can’t come across.”

Li Baolu blinked and asked, How much?

The peddler was about to make an eight when he saw Li Baolu staring at him with wide eyes, feeling guilty, he took advantage of the situation and made a six and said with a painful face: Six taels of silver, if it weren't for the little girl Cute, there is no such price.

A big smile spread across Li Baolu's face.

Gu Jingyun couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and happily gave him six taels of silver.

Gu Jingyun put the jade bi in his arms, pulled Li Baolu and left.

The stall owner took the money, and happily waved to the two of them, The two guest officials are good to go.

Wait a minute, a half-grown boy hurried over to stop the two of them, glanced at the two of them carefully to make sure he had never seen them, and then raised his chin arrogantly and said: It's you who came from the booth. Did you buy jade biscuits?

Gu Jingyun held Li Baolu's hand tightly, looked at the boy expressionlessly, and asked, Who are you? What right do you have to ask me?

The young man frowned and said displeasedly: My uncle is the magistrate, who do you think I am? Hurry up and hand over the jade bi.

Gu Jingyun pulled Li Baolu behind him, and asked slowly: So the county magistrate's nephew is going to rob me in the street?

The boy blushed and said, Who said I'm going to rob you? I bought it from you.

After finishing speaking, he took out a dime of silver from his pocket and threw it on Gu Jingyun, and said arrogantly: Hurry up and hand over the jade bi.

Gu Jingyun took a serious look at the silver that rolled down at his feet. Although he had never weighed it, and the silver was not a whole piece, he could estimate that it was only about two taels.

With a sneer on his face, he said, You want to buy it, but I don't sell it, how do you treat it?

The young man was taken aback, he didn't expect this child to be so courageous, he dared to fight against him even after he showed his identity.

Thinking of his uncle's birthday, he pointed to this piece of jade to please him, otherwise he might not get a good job when he grows up.

The young man's eyes darkened, and his evil turned to courage. He stretched out his hand and pushed Gu Jingyun, and said viciously: You are so courageous, you even dare to steal my jade, hand it over quickly, or I will let the yamen guard take you away. Caught in prison and eaten in prison.

Gu Jingyun's eyes widened slightly, apparently it was the first time he saw such a shameless person.

Li Baolu has already started to turn her head to look for the tools at hand.

The peddler at the side was stunned, and couldn't help but speak for the two children, Master, they bought their jade from my stall, and I still have a lot of jade at my stall, why don't you pick it up?

The boy kicked towards the peddler's stall angrily, Get out, I see that you and these two thieves are in the same group. If they steal something, they will hand it over to you for sale, right?

Gu Jingyun \u0026 Li Baolu: ...

Hawker: ...

Onlookers: ...

Young man, we all know that there is a saying, If you want to commit a crime, there is no reason to worry about it, but you have to be more beautiful. The silver you used to buy jade with other children is still on the ground, and you turn around and say that he stole it. Your jade bi, is this really good?

But the young man thought he had found a good solution, looked at Gu Jingyun arrogantly and said, Are you going to pay or not?

Gu Jingyun took a deep breath, feeling that talking to such an idiot would be an insult to his IQ, so he turned around and pulled Li Baolu away.

The young man didn't expect Gu Jingyun to ignore him like this, his blood surged up, and a mystery called reason in his brain broke instantly, he took two quick steps angrily, and kicked Gu Jingyun's lower back with one kick.

Li Baolu, who had been paying attention to him all the time, saw his movements, her expression changed, and she ruthlessly pulled Gu Jingyun aside, the boy's feet landed on Gu Jingyun's shoulders, kicking him to the ground.

Gu Jingyun rolled when he fell to the ground, and quickly got up while clutching his shoulders.

After the beating incident, Gu Jingyun had developed a conditioned reflex, and immediately looked for the best escape route. When his eyes swept over the onlookers, his expression changed, and he hurried to find Li Baolu.

He had been holding her hand just now, but where is she now?

Li Baolu fell to the ground when Gu Jingyun was kicked away, but she didn't fall hard, got up immediately, probably because she was younger and she was a girl, the boy's eyes didn't stay on her for a moment.

Li Baolu, who stood up, saw Gu Jingyun rolled twice on the spot before getting up, so she knew that he was not seriously injured, so she immediately turned around and ran to get the weapon she had hoped for earlier - a pole!

Li Baolu was small, and she couldn't see it once she got into the crowd. That's why Gu Jingyun's face turned pale in panic, and he shouted in panic, Baolu!

No one answered.

Gu Jingyun staggered, almost unable to stand, he cried out with a crying voice, Where are you, Baolu?

The young man sneered, stepped forward with his fists clenched and said, I'll ask you again, do you want to hand over this jade bi?

Gu Jingyun looked at the young man with red eyes, full of hatred.

The young man only felt a chill in his heart, and realized that he was being intimidated by a child. Annoyed, he was about to beat him up. Suddenly, the back of his head hurt sharply. He looked back in bewilderment, and saw a chubby girl with short hands and feet full of Holding a pole with a fierce face.

The boy rubbed the back of his head and blushed furiously, but before he could react, the girl grabbed the pole and hit him in the face like a shower, hitting him on the nose with a blow to the head, and he felt a pain in his nose It was hot, and the nosebleeds rushed down. He covered his nose, and the second stick hit his forehead and eyes...

The boy let out a roar, put his hands on his head, and was about to step up to grab her against the pole, but the girl hit Huanglong directly with the third stick, hitting his thigh hard.

The young man let out a miserable howl, and couldn't help covering his lower body and knelt on the ground...

Li Baolu's eyes flashed fiercely, his small hands trembled, but he still held up the shoulder pole and slapped him hard on the back of the head...

The boy rolled his eyes and lay down on the ground, motionless.

Li Baolu threw down her pole and ran forward to grab Gu Jingyun, and the two children squeezed into the crowd and disappeared after a while.

Onlookers: ...It happened too fast, they didn't see it clearly, can you do it again?

From the first time Li Baolu hit the boy on the back of the head with a shoulder pole to when she dragged Gu Jingyun away, it took only about ten breaths of time. The onlookers were too shocked to react.

It took a while before someone whispered: Is this young man all right, do you want to call the doctor?

The crowd dispersed in a rush, and all the onlookers knew how shameless this young man was. He dared to rob him in the street by relying on the power of the county magistrate. What if he was bitten back after saving him?

Everyone ran as far as they could, and the vendors who set up stalls nearby immediately packed up their things and left, as if they couldn't see the people on the ground.

In the end, the yamen servant who heard the sound brought the boy back to the county yamen, but at that time there was no one around him, and everyone was far away, so the yamen servant couldn't even find any witnesses.
