Gu Chao's slender arms were hanging down by his side, his hands were clenched into fists because of anger, trembling slightly, even though he was so small standing in front of those men, he was so weak, but he still had to come out Fight for Chu Ming.

"Brother Chao, what are you doing..." Among the people in the room, the village head, Gu Cheng, was the first to react, but he hadn't finished speaking, and Gu Chao couldn't care about the respect of the elders and the inferiors. Yes, he released the words that were suppressed in his heart all at once.

"You said that Chu Ming made up the fact that he saw the wild wolf on purpose, but did you see the wound on his back? The three cuts that are so long and deep, couldn't they be caught by the wild wolf or by himself? You say that he doesn’t like you married couples, deliberately wants you to have a home so that you can’t sleep, and forces you to go out to patrol, then I want to ask you, you people only get your turn once every three days, but what about Chu Ming, Is he there every night? He has done more than you and worked harder than you, which can be seen by a discerning eye! Even so, you still slander him for lying, are you blind?"

Gu Chao's fair little face was flushed red, and he spoke in a hurry, with almost no time for sentence breaks or respite.

The group of gentlemen heard that, a handsome seven-foot-tall man, was actually stabbed in the back by a little brother, who scolded him so harshly, naturally couldn't get off his face, and his eyes were red with anger.

"Who are you? Why do you rush in when we're talking, and keep trying to help Chu Ming? You can't be better off with Chu Ming, right?" One of the fathers gave Gu Chao a sideways look shamelessly, He said in a contemptuous tone: "Have you heard about what happened at the entrance of the village today? You still protect such a provocative man. If you become a broken shoe, who else dares to take you as a little brother!"

"Am I with him..."

Gu Chao wanted to say something, but Chu Ming held his hand.

"Brother Chao, don't talk about it." Chu Ming shook his head at Gu Chao. These were all his affairs, but Gu Chao's reputation was ruined. He felt that it was not worth it and he was not willing to part with it.

Chu Ming's pull also transferred Gu Chao's anger from those masters to Chu Ming.

"What are you arresting me for? Why are you shaking your head? I haven't said anything about you yet. You fool, you just keep silent when you encounter a problem. If you don't say anything, the problem can be solved. When others slander you like this, you don't open your mouth. If you don’t think for yourself, who else can help you?”

Anger flickered in Gu Chao's dark eyes, like two small flames, which kept flickering.

Chu Ming seemed to be bewitched by something, he couldn't move his eyes from looking at Gu Chao like this, the missing corner in his heart seemed to be filled up, it was warm.

Seeing that Chu Ming was still silent, Gu Chao stabilized his mood and let out a long and helpless sigh.

"Chu Ming, whether you want to talk about it or not, today's matter must be explained one by one, thoroughly! No one has no temper, and no one can be bullied like this casually!" Gu Chao said coldly He glanced at the group of fathers with different faces, and finally turned his gaze back to Chu Ming, "I ask, you answer, there is a sentence to say."

"Did you meet a wild wolf on the mountain and get scratched by it?"

"Yes."

"Did you go up the mountain during the day to look for traces of wild wolves, and follow them to patrol the village at night?"

"Yes." Although Chu Ming didn't know how Gu Chao knew, what Gu Chao said was exactly what he did.

"Uncle Cheng, even if Chu Ming didn't find traces of the wolf on his body, he still can't confirm that the wolf doesn't exist or has left, can he?" Gu Chao's next question was thrown to Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng thought for a while, and said: "Yes, animals like wolves are more cunning than ordinary beasts by nature, especially these days, the snow is so heavy, we really shouldn't let our guard down so early."

"Uncle Lian Cheng said so, do you still have any doubts?" Gu Chao took a step forward in the direction of the group of masters, and the aura accumulated in the workplace in his previous life suddenly dissipated.

The group of gentlemen seemed to be frightened, they looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to refute Gu Chao.

"Since you don't open your mouth, then you don't have it. Whether you want to continue the patrol or not depends on Uncle Cheng." Gu Chao turned around and faced Chu Ming again.

"Then let's talk about the incident at the entrance of the village today. Is the little brother that the grandfather who came today called Chu Rui?"

"Yes." Chu Ming replied again.

"What's the relationship between Chu Rui and you?"

This time, Chu Ming didn't answer Gu Chao's question quickly, but stared at Gu Chao's face with his dark eyes for a while, and saw that he was still determined, so he said, "Brother Rui It was my little brother whom my parents betrothed for me when I was young."

After Chu Ming said, Gu Chao glanced over the group of masters again, and saw the surprised expression on their faces.

In this world, because of the scarcity of younger brothers, few parents are willing to betroth their precious younger brothers when they were young. Some of them are married, so naturally they know that they want a younger brother. It's not easy, but this poor and white Chu Ming already has a younger brother who is engaged to be married.

"You have also heard that Chu Rui is engaged to Chu Ming, and his parents forced him to marry Chu Ming in order to fulfill the original engagement. It is not the dark and dirty thing you people think. reason!"

After Gu Chao said this sentence, the smoky things that were stuck in his heart finally dissipated slowly.

The other people in the study room had been shocked by Gu Chao's eloquence, and they all dared to glance at Gu Chao secretly from the corner of their eyes. Now that Gu Chao had finished expressing his anger, he stopped talking, and the study room was in a state of depression. There was an awkward silence.

"Brother Chao, Uncle Cheng knows what you said, and he will handle it well."

Gu Cheng, who was still the oldest and had seen the most scenes, spoke first, and he looked at brother Chao with complicated eyes, mixed with surprise, amazement and worry.

This child looks more and more like Gu An, is it luck or misfortune...

"Uncle Cheng, I was indeed rude in this matter today. Now that the matter has been clarified, Uncle Cheng has to work hard for the rest." Gu Chao arched his body towards Gu Cheng before turning and leaving the study.

When Gu Chao walked out of the study, he saw Qu Hua and Gu Huai standing beside the door, both pairs of eyes were looking at him worriedly.

Although there was no anger on his face, his tone of voice was still a little stiff.

"Auntie, I'll go back today and come to see you when I have time." Gu Chao stepped forward to take Gu Huai's hand and led him home together.

Qu Hua was at the door of the study room. Although he only heard most of it, he also guessed that it was probably because of some accident. Like the people inside, he was a little stunned by Gu Chao, who suddenly became strong and aggressive. Huicai turned back to God, and hurriedly said: "Okay, walk slowly, the road is slippery."

Gu Chao led Gu Huai out of Gu Cheng's house. He couldn't help shivering when he was blown by the cold east wind. He reflexively looked down at Gu Huai, and then squatted down to straighten the neckline of his cotton coat for Gu Huai.

"Is brother angry? You spoke so loudly just now." Gu Hua blinked his eyes, his tone and eyes were not as timid as those before.

"Yes, my brother is angry. Because those people talk nonsense, many things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. We have to see with our eyes, feel with our hearts, and more importantly, we have to speak out. Let others know Your feelings, your thoughts, and the truth. Xiao Huai, do you understand?" Gu Chao also took this opportunity to teach Gu Huai some things.

"Understood! It's like my shoes were wet before, but I didn't tell my brother, so my brother was very angry."

"Yes, Xiao Huai is really smart. I hope that some people can be like Xiao Huai. My brother will teach me once, and he will understand."

"Brother, I have something to say now."

"Okay, you say."

"Xiao Huai wants to pee, but I was too embarrassed to say it at Auntie's house before."

"... Then let's go home quickly."

┄┅┄┅┄┅┄┅┄

How this matter ended afterwards, Gu Chao didn't know, after he returned home, he still did what he should do as usual, and then cooked, washed, and took care of Gu Huai. Under the quilt, played backgammon for a while, then lay down, Gu Chao told Gu Hua the story in One Thousand and One Nights, and then slowly fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Gu Chao woke up suddenly, the moonlight was good tonight, it was clear and bright, and it came in from the window.

After Gu Chao woke up, he stared blankly at the roof, the wooden beams and columns... He suddenly remembered that the last memory of his previous life seemed to be the roof too. He was looking at the ceiling of the room, and then fell asleep in a daze. After passing through the past and waking up again, you are already in this body.

If he was looking at the roof of the loess house now, where would he be when he fell asleep and opened his eyes tomorrow?

Thinking about it, Gu Chao's drowsiness disappeared all at once. In the quiet night, he could hear the whirring of cold wind pouring into the house through the cracks, and then the sound of someone's footsteps passing by outside the door.

On this cold winter night, the only people who would walk outside were the patrol team.

Gu Chao pondered for a while, then let go of Gu Huai who was held in his arms as a stove, put on a thick cotton coat and trousers, got up, opened the door, and the cold wind with snowflakes was blowing towards his face.

Gu Chao squinted his eyes due to the cold wind, and looked out through a small slit.

Outside the fence of his house, there was a man, holding a lantern, walking slowly through the snow.
