Chapter 156 The Lin Family Comes to Thank You

Gu Yan held Gu Qingzhi's hand and talked as they walked, while Gu Lin walked on the other side of Gu Qingzhi.

Gu Qingzhi was puzzled. Why didn't he say half and keep the other half? "Brother, where is the rest?"

“The other 20% is used to support rural schools.

The last 20% is mainly used to pay the wages of the standing committee members and support the armed group.

In addition, some funds must be reserved for the township’s public expenses.”

"What specific aspects does public expenses include?" Gu Qingzhi was full of curiosity.

After all, this fee had never been set up before.

It turns out that the so-called public expenses can be used for projects such as building bridges and roads.

Moreover, if the village has sufficient funds, it can also build a village meeting hall specifically for centralized discussion of affairs.

In this way, everyone no longer has to go to each family’s ancestral hall to discuss matters.

"Yes! Why didn't I think of this?" Gu Qingzhi suddenly realized, "Who came up with this brilliant idea? This person is really amazing!"

Gu Yan chuckled.

Gu Lin looked at her speechlessly, "Who else could it be? Of course it must be your brother."

After hearing this, Gu Qingzhi immediately turned sideways and praised Gu Yan generously: "Wow! Brother is so amazing! You can actually come up with such an idea..."

As she spoke, her gaze fell directly on Gu Yan, and a very obvious smile flashed in her eyes.

Faced with such straightforward praise from his sister, Gu Yan did not hide it, but frankly admitted: "Actually, this idea is not original to me..."

"Oh? How did that come about?" Gu Qingzhi blinked and asked curiously.

Gu Yan pursed his lips, his thoughts gradually drifting back to the time when he followed his mentor to study abroad in his early years.

What he saw and heard at that time is still unforgettable to him, and this idea originated from an experience during that period.

“I see… But brother is still amazing!

After all, other people haven’t traveled to study like my brother has!”

After listening to this, Gu Qingzhi still spared no effort to flatter her brother.

Gu Lin, who was standing by, was completely speechless upon seeing this.

He rolled his eyes and thought, this girl is really a "brainless braggart"!

Looking at Gu Yan's slightly upturned mouth corners, it was obvious that he was a little flattered by his sister's praise.

Well, now I have nothing to do!

Before the three of them reached home, they saw from afar what seemed to be a simple carriage slowly driving away from their home.

The three of them looked at each other, all of them feeling a little confused.

Needless to say, this carriage should be the one that the guests who came to visit today took.

Gu Yan and Gu Qingzhi were completely confused about this mysterious visitor, but Gu Lin had some vague guesses in his mind.

However, this incident happened so long ago, and it is a bit too late for the other party to come to my door now...

After arriving home, Gu Yan and others saw at a glance that there were many things placed on the table in the front hall.

Gu Qingzhi came forward to take a closer look and found items such as rice, flour, sugar, icing sugar, tea, wine, and even cloth.

Moreover, the cloth looked quite expensive. In addition, there was a pig and a sheep, both of which had been slaughtered. Gu Qingzhi was puzzled. Could it be that these were all sent by the guests just now?

But what kind of customer is so generous? And the most surprising thing is that my father actually accepted it!

Seeing Gu Qingzhi looking at the fabrics, Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with a smile: "Qing'er, do you like these fabrics? The colors are fresh and tender, which is most suitable for young ladies to wear. Ask your mother to make some winter clothes for you and Shuijie'er."

Gu Qingzhi's eyes turned away immediately: "Father, have you forgotten that your daughter can make her own clothes now?"

"Haha, it's Dad's fault for forgetting for a moment!

Take a look at the ones you like and put them back in your room to make them when you have time."

Gu Qingzhi curled her lips and said, "Let's talk about this later!"

She turned her attention to another issue.

"By the way, Dad, who sent these things?"

What she was most curious about was that her father actually accepted such generous gifts.

Could it be that someone came to become my disciple?

However, since my father left the school, few people have come to visit.

If he wants to be his disciple, the gifts he is giving are too mixed and obviously not something that will please him.

Gu Cheng asked brothers Gu Lin and Gu Yan to sit down in front of the tea table as well.

Gu Cheng raised his hand and began to make tea skillfully.

When the tea was boiling, he carefully filled a cup for each person, and then he spoke slowly: "These tea leaves were given to me by others!"

He seemed to know what Gu Qingzhi was going to ask, and before she could open her mouth, he immediately said, "Qing'er, do you still remember that last time Dad went to his uncle's house and came back late?

Actually, my father came back late because he saved a few people on the road and was delayed for a few days.

Look, they came to my house to express their gratitude and gave me some gifts, so I accepted them.”

After hearing this, Gu Qingzhi suddenly felt flustered.

Could it be... She tried to calm herself down and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Dad, are they also from our county?"

Gu Cheng answered nonchalantly while brewing tea: "Yes, he is the old man of the Lin family, a wealthy family in the county."

Sure enough!

Gu Qingzhi's face turned pale instantly, and she could hardly hold the teacup in her hand.

Gu Yan, who was standing by, was the first to notice her abnormality and asked with concern, "Qingqing, what's wrong with you? You look so bad." Gu Qingzhi forced a smile and said weakly, "My brother... I'm a little tired. I want to go back to the room and lie down for a while."

Gu Cheng nodded and agreed quickly: "Okay, go back to your room and have a rest. I'll call you for dinner."

Gu Qingzhi forced a smile, but at this moment she felt weak all over, as if all her strength had been drained away.

Gu Yan looked at her worriedly, half hugged her and brought her back to the room, and asked with concern: "Qingqing, are you okay?

How about I ask Doctor Li to come and take a look at you?"

"Brother, it's okay..." Gu Qingzhi pulled the corners of her lips uncomfortably. Her mind was in a mess at the moment, and she said weakly: "Brother, it's okay, I just lie down for a while."

Gu Yan was still a little worried, but Qingqing kept insisting and he had no other good ideas, so he had to compromise and said, "Okay, if you feel uncomfortable anywhere, you must tell your brother."

Gu Qingzhi responded softly and closed her eyes.

After Gu Yan finished speaking, he left Gu Qingzhi's room, looking back every few steps.

Since he rescued his sister from a trap on the mountain last month, the two have been together and have never seen each other.
