Everyone followed Liu Tingyi into the former county magistrate's private house. This house was indeed big enough, and it was particularly conspicuous among a group of second-entry courtyards. The area was more than twice as wide.

The entrance is a spacious screen wall, a curved corridor, and then go inside, there are living springs, small bridges, and flowing water.

"This house is not bad." Gu Yuzhu nodded.

If the two dilapidated ones next door are rebuilt and used as a medium-sized school, it should be more than enough.

Ancient times are just that good.

In an unprosperous county like this, the population loss is serious, and many dilapidated houses are owned by the yamen. It is a legitimate way for the county magistrate to use it as a development county, which is protected by law and does not need to pay money.

"It's just that there is a small problem." Liu Tingzhi stretched out two fingers and compared them to the size of a fingernail, with an inexplicable guilty conscience on his face.

This expression... Gu Yuzhu's heart skipped a beat.

It always feels familiar, yet unsettling.

She squeezed out a cold smile: "You say."

Liu Ting rubbed his hands together, and said in embarrassment: "The people of the Li family took a fancy to this house before, and asked the lower officials to keep it for them..."

Facing Gu Yuzhu's cannibalistic gaze, he gradually lost his ability to speak.

He didn't know that the newly appointed county magistrate and his wife would dislike the Li family so much.

"Then you should go and inform the Li family and ask them if they want this house. After all, they are doing things for the people. It would be great if the master of the Li family could contribute money to support it." Gu Yuzhu was very excited. Comprehendingly, he thought of a compromise.

If you want a house, no problem, just give me money.

But Liu Tingzhi, who heard her subtext, was about to cry, and asked anxiously, "Go down to the government?"

Can't we go with someone else?

Gu Yuzhu said earnestly: "You can be regarded as the second-in-command in the county government anyway. Besides the county magistrate, you have the highest position. Letting you go is also a kind of respect for everyone."

Liu Tingzhi was speechless and choked.

Before, he didn't see how much the couple attached importance to the Li family, but now he pretended it.

Before he could refuse, Gu Yuzhu waved his hand boldly: "Okay, since the master of the Li family has taken a fancy to this house, we can't be stingy, so let's continue to look at the following."

Tsk, she is really generous.

Liu Ting responded sullenly.

Next, they went to see several other places. Whether it should be said or not, Liu Ting's professional ability is quite strong, and the few places selected in a short period of time are very suitable for being used as schools, but there are different places in each place. the benefits of.

Not only did Gu Yuzhu let go of the noble mansion, but he was still looking forward to it in his heart, and he didn't know when the Li family would send the money.

Liu Tingzhi, who walked to the door, inexplicably felt a chill behind his back. He subconsciously touched his neck, and finally protested softly: "My lord, madam, I don't know, I wonder if I can talk to someone else at Li's house?"

You husband and wife want to mess with the Li family, don't take me with you!

He is timid and can't stand it, so scary.

But as soon as the words fell, a roar broke in directly: "I said that we are a medical clinic here, and our doctors also need to eat. You come to credit again and again, and we haven't asked you for money yet." , you are here again, get out! If you don’t get out, don’t blame me for being rude!”

The roar was like thunder, and instantly attracted the attention of the whole family.

Gu Yuzhu tilted his head curiously, "What happened?"

In her bones, she also liked to watch the excitement a little bit, and unconsciously took a few steps forward, and even the big treasure in her hand followed.

Niu Niu, who was being held by Song Chengye, and Er Bao, who was being held by Su Ziyi, were naturally not far behind, urging them to look forward.

The whole family went to the front neatly to watch the excitement, leaving behind Liu Tingzhi, who was lonely and desolate, petrified in the wind.

The accident happened at the entrance of a medical clinic, and the person who pointed at people and scolded was a young brother. Gu Yuzhu could smell the strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine on his body from a long distance away.

Presumably the other party was either a doctor, or a handyman in the medical clinic.

The man who was pointed at his nose and scolded was even more interesting. Judging by his appearance alone, he was probably only in his 30s, but his hair was mixed with white silk, which made him look very vicissitudes of life, and he was wearing a long robe.

These days, most common people do not wear robes at home, because it is inconvenient to do things, only officials, merchants, or scholars.

Gu Yuzhu guessed that he should be the last type, because the robe on the other party's body has been washed white, and the corners are even fuzzy, and his family does not look very wealthy.

At this time, the people in the medical hall pointed their noses at the scholar and scolded the scholar, but they didn't even speak back, just kowtowed: "I beg you, please give me another dose of medicine, please..."

The onlookers on the side of the road shook their heads and sighed when they saw this, and occasionally there were only a few sighs of emotion.

"What a crime."

"It's not all because of his own fault, otherwise, he is also a scholar anyway, and it is easier to make money than ordinary people like us."

"You can't say that. It's not Hou Xiucai's fault in the first place. It's human nature for him to say a few more words as a teacher. Whoever knows it will be kicked on the iron plate."

"That's right, that's the young master of a rich family, how can we mediocre people afford to provoke him."

Gu Yuzhu was confused, and couldn't help asking: "This person is a scholar after all, who has offended him, and turned into such a miserable situation?"

Now everyone is watching a good show, and when she heard her question, no one turned around to look at her more, and everyone started to gossip.

"I heard it's the young master of the Li family."

"It's not the young master of the Li family, it's the lackey next to the young master of the Li family. It's from the Jiang family. I heard that Jiang Er is studying in Xiangyun Academy. He usually has no teacher. Hou Xiucai is a good teacher. I said a few more words, who knows It offends people."

"Yeah, it's all like this, Jiang Er still refuses to let Hou Xiucai go, and deliberately spread rumors, saying that Hou Xiucai deliberately made it difficult for students, and the teacher's morality is corrupt, so that other schools cannot hire Hou Xiucai. If only he However, there is the second young master of the Li family behind him, so Hou Xiucai can only spend time at home."

Gu Yuzhu was thoughtful: "Then this medical clinic doesn't pay on credit because it's afraid of the Li family?"

"Hey, who's to say it's not? It's said that the doctors are benevolent, but the people in these clinics are the most responsive."

Some people shook their heads and cursed, looking down on the people inside.

"If you ask me, Hou Xiucai is also stubborn. Back then, it was enough to apologize. Unlike now, no one accepts an apology." Someone said with emotion.

Gu Yuzhu finally understood the ins and outs, and frowned deeply.

This Li family is simply a cancer.
