Jump over the wall. "

"Buddha jumps over the wall? Good name! It's unconventional, even the Buddha will jump over the wall to taste it after hearing it. It's so wonderful." Didn't their actions just now prove the name of this dish? Can resist the deliciousness of Buddha jumping over the wall.

Even though the two still wanted to eat, they were ashamed to stay. Although they were trying the dishes, just by eating these ingredients in their mouths, they knew that the ingredients of this dish were very particular. Swimming in the water is all good, and the cost is definitely not small. It is better to wait until the opening day to bring money and then continue to taste.

After asking about the date of opening, the two old gourmets left reluctantly, and the speed was fast when they left the restaurant. We must bring these old gourmets to the restaurant.

Author's gossip: Thank you for your support, okay!

The Qijia restaurant opened smoothly, and it was full of guests on the first day, and it was very lively.

Gu Zhao and Song Ze originally wanted to add some popularity to the restaurant, but before they reached the restaurant, they saw such a lively scene. They took the wood and hurriedly slipped away. There is nothing else for them. They should not cause trouble .

This day, Qi Yunfei, as the young master, was too busy to go home, and he didn’t run into Gu Zhao and Song Ze. He didn’t meet until breakfast the next day. The two described yesterday's scene.

"Even that Mrs. Song came here yesterday, and she was very appreciative of Buddha Jumping the Wall. This magistrate's wife has a lot of background. It is said that her natal family is also a big family in the capital. She is also capable and has opened several shops in the city. One of the shops is in the dim sum business, and it goes well with eating."

Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows when he heard that, Second Brother Qi probably got in touch with Mrs. Song through the icing business, Qi Yunfei smiled and nodded to him, that's exactly the case, but it was also a surprise that Mrs. Song came to cheer in person yesterday Yes, this gave him a little more confidence in Gu Zhao's lawsuit.

The icing sugar that he got from Gu Zhao earlier was used by him to find ways, and it was because of this that he was able to break through the checkpoints in Qingling City and successfully opened the Qijia Restaurant. Thinking about it, after getting acquainted with Gu Zhao, he and Qi The family's luck has always been very good, and Qi Yunfei has become more and more fond of Gu Zhao.

"The people who went to Qinghe County today should also come back. You have two days left to take the test in the participating mansion, and everything has piled up."

"Don't be afraid, you won't be able to delay anything in a day or two." Gu Zhao said confidently.

Sure enough, around noon, a yamen servant came to send someone and asked Gu Zhao to go to the hearing. Song Ze also hurriedly put down his books and went with Gu Zhao.

Mu Mu followed Gu Zhao with a protective attitude, he wanted to protect his brother.

A lot of people had already gathered in front of the yamen. Except for some local people, some people knew that their status was not low by looking at their clothes. They should be scholars in the city, and they might be scholars. When they saw Gu Zhao appearing, the crowd automatically After making way for him, Gu Zhao and Song Ze saluted the magistrate first after entering.

"Gao Hongchang, come and identify yourself first, who among them is Gu Zhao?"

Gu Zhaochao took a look at the middle-aged man who was kneeling by the side, he looked greasy, his eyes were weak and his eyes were black and blue, needless to say, he was Mrs. Gao’s son, the master of the Gao family, and the magistrate’s intentions were also guessed for a while. point.

He was about the same age as Song Ze, and his clothes were not much different. He looked at Gao Hongchang with the same eyes, and the crowd around him were also discussing. Easy to handle.

Sure enough, Gao Hongchang's eyes kept turning back and forth on Gu Zhao and Song Ze. At the same time, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. After a while, his whole body became weaker, as if wishing to faint, and finally he gritted his teeth and pointed at the station. Song Ze on the side, because he felt that Song Ze's temperament was closer to his mother's description.

"It's him, he's Gu Zhao."

There were quite a few people present who had watched the scene that day, so they could naturally tell who was Gu Zhao and who was someone else, and there was a loud "buzz", and they even mistook the person, obviously what they said before was all nonsense. , How dare to fool the magistrate.

Some scholars also asked the people around them: "Which of the two is Gu Zhao?"

"Ha, the one next to him who looks a bit childish is Gu Zhao. He even admitted that he was wrong, and he dared to say that it was because Gu Zhao offended him that he let the servants take revenge."

"Oh, there really isn't a word of truth."

Gao Jiang Hongchang also heard the reactions of the people around him. He swayed and his face turned pale. He gritted his teeth again and said, "I just missed it. It's him! The one next to him is Gu Zhao!"

The magistrate slapped Jingmu angrily: "What a Gao Hongchang, how dare to fool and deceive me under my nose, come here, and serve me with great punishment!"

"No, I really confessed to the wrong person, my lord, please forgive me, I will pay the money, I will pay him the money, the little one will never dare again."

"Play the top ten boards first!"

The guard stripped off Gao Hongchang's trousers on the spot, and the people around him pointed at the gaudy butt and made a lot of discussion. In fact, Gu Zhao didn't expect Gao's family to be honest. Compared with the magistrate, they were obviously less Dare to offend the Hou Mansion in Beijing, and that Hou Mansion is their reliance, and it is obviously more beneficial to keep the reliance than to offend them.

Sure enough, after hitting the board, Gao Hongchang didn't reveal anything substantive, so he killed Gu Zhao, who didn't like his eyes, and pushed him on the servant. He just asked the servant to teach Gu Zhao a little, but the servant If a person wants to cut off his hands and feet on his own initiative, his master doesn't know anything, and the servants are too scared to push on the master.

The onlookers were in an uproar, and few of them believed his statement, and the magistrate actually didn't believe it either, but he couldn't figure out what contradictions and entanglements there were.

Gao Hongchang obviously didn't recognize Gu Zhao, and it was obviously the first time Gu Zhao saw Gao Hongchang. After investigation, the guards who went to Qinghe County also confirmed what Gu Zhao said. No matter how you look at it, there is no chance of contacting the Gao family and causing conflicts, but the Gao family really wanted to ruin Gu Zhao's future. Even the fact that Gu Zhao had a bad stomach and was unable to participate in the county examination two years ago was revealed , Mr. Zhifu suspected that he really had a bad stomach that time?

But in the end, he could only be put in prison and continue the review. Some people present comforted Gu Zhao, telling him not to worry about such villains, and to prepare well for the government examination two days later, so as to pass the examination in one go. Scholars fame.

Gu Zhao was grateful again and again, and he was very humble in front of these scholars, which made people feel good. These people remembered him and Song Ze, the case leader of the Qinghe County Examination.

After returning to each house, the county magistrate of Qinghe County had a headache. The officials of the government office went to question and arrest people. Of course, the county government needed the cooperation of the county government. The county magistrate of Qinghe County did not expect such a thing to happen under his rule, and even exposed it to the city. , I wish I could call all the Gao family over to reprimand me, what are the Gao family doing.

The magistrate is also very troubled. Now that this matter has spread among scholars, he will be affected if he does not handle it well.

Although Mrs. Song didn't come to the scene, she asked her servants to come back and describe it to her. She said to Mr. Song: "In my opinion, this Gao family is not a good one. The master just needs to handle it fairly."

Master Song sighed: "Where is it? The people who went to Qinghe County brought back a message. There are people in the capital behind the Gao family."

"Tsk tsk, there are no people in the capital, and my wife and I also have people in the capital."

Mr. Song was amused and said: "From what they said, it seems that it is the Hou's Mansion in Beijing. They asked me to let Gao's family go, and let this matter go lightly."

"Bah! There are several Marquis houses in Beijing, and I don't know which Marquis house it is. Maybe I know it too. If there are such unlucky relatives, it's better to get rid of them as soon as possible."

"I don't know yet. If the relationship is really that good, maybe a letter will arrive in a few days."

"Master, there is a letter from Jingli."

The husband and wife looked at each other and said that Cao Cao would be here. The letter came so quickly. Could it be that the relationship is really strong?

Master Song hurriedly called people in, took the letter and opened it to read. After reading it, he still had an expression of disbelief.

"Master, what's the matter? Which Marquis Mansion is it?"

"It's the Yongninghou Mansion in the capital city. Yongninghou himself wrote a letter, claiming that the old lady of the Gao family is the old man of the Houfu. I hope I will take care of you." Mr. Song didn't expect to be alarmed by Yongninghou himself to write a letter in person.

"This..." Mrs. Song also couldn't figure it out, "I have never heard Mrs. Yongning Hou mention any old relatives here."

"Madam, tell me, how should I handle this matter?" Mr. Song's head hurt even more.

Mrs. Song also felt that it was difficult to handle. After all, it was Yongninghou himself who wrote the letter, so she must give the face, but she also sympathized with the examinee who escaped the catastrophe. The facts of what they have done are hard to see, and it is really annoying to let them go like this.

Besides, Qi Yunfei, who has business dealings with her, mentioned her younger brother Gu Zhao in front of her yesterday. Mrs. Song understood what he meant and wanted to entrust her to Guan Zhao. She thought it was a trivial matter, but now she knows Involving the Marquis of Yongning in the capital, what she promised might be difficult to handle. "

Her dim sum shop is not only in Qingling City, but also in Beijing. Qi Yunfei's icing is very fancy, and she wants to continue to get icing from Qi Yunfei, so it's not good to be too biased against the Gao family.

"Master, it's not as good as this..."

Mr. Song pondered for a while after hearing this, and he could only do this: "Let's talk about it after Gu Zhao finishes the government exam, so as not to affect him before the exam."

"It's up to the master."

Gu Zhao didn't know about all this, and his mind was on the upcoming government exam. Qi Yunfei and Mu Mu were nervously preparing the exam baskets for Gu Zhao and Song Ze to bring into the exam room. Two candidates serve.

Mu Mu is very unfamiliar with these things, but he works hard to learn from Qi Yunfei, and checks over and over again when he is ready. After hearing Qi Yunfei say a lot of situations where he might be framed, Mu Mu is afraid that Gu Zhao will be framed again. Is the Gao family waiting? Who knows if the magistrate will deal with it fairly.

If the magistrate dares not to uphold justice for his brother, Mu Muxin said that he would have to add another person to his death list, and that would be the magistrate.

Mr. Song, who was dealing with official business, suddenly felt his neck go cold, but he didn't know why.

It was finally the day of entering the examination room. In order to prevent further accidents, Qi Yunfei took Li Wen and two other servants with him, and personally sent Gu Zhao and Song Ze into the examination room in a carriage, so that Li Wen and two other servants must keep their eyes on them And Kaolan, we must keep an eye on it. Of course, in front of Gu Zhao and Song Ze, he told them to relax and enter the examination room, saying that there is everything outside, so there is no need to worry.

Author's gossip: Thank you for your support, okay!

The government examination consists of three consecutive exams, which are divided into post scriptures, essays, and policy theory. The first two are one day each, and the third policy theory is a serious crime. You need to stay in the examination room for two days and one night. Even if you have passed all kinds of modern exams Gu Zhao, who is extremely experienced, also felt that this ancient scientific research was too inhumane.

Gu Zhao sighed, the exams in the future will only become more difficult, so in order to avoid suffering, he must try to pass each exam in the future.

During the exam, he found that the magistrate Mr. Song still stayed in front of him for a while, Gu Zhao was as steady as an old dog, he just looked at it, and he didn't grow much meat, so he could do whatever he wanted.

Master Song watched it for a while, and continued to inspect Gu Zhao with a faint admiration in his heart. Although Yongning Hou Mansion suppressed him, he didn't want Gu Zhao to cut off his future because he knew very well that a farm boy wanted to pass the exam. How difficult is it to get ahead in the imperial examination? Gu Zhao is burdened with the expectations of the entire family, so he thinks that when he completes the entrustment of Yongninghou, he can also protect Gu Zhao's interests to the greatest extent so that he can continue the scientific examination.

Seeing that Gu Zhao was not affected by the lawsuit at all, and unlike other candidates who would panic because of his appearance, Gu Zhao has always been very calm. If his grades are not bad, he will definitely have a good future in the future. It would be a pity to ruin it. .

But there is still a problem that he can't figure out. Neither the old lady Wang nor Gao Hongchang, including the letter from the Marquis of Yongning later, did not explain why the Gao family took action against a farm boy. I turned everything upside down, but I didn't find any clues that might have something to do with the Gao family, but since the Gao family made a move, and not once or twice, there must be a reason behind it, but because of Yongninghou's face, he wanted I'm afraid it will be difficult to pry the Gao family's mouth open.

Mr. Song didn't expect to be connected with the Yongning Hou Mansion for a while. After all, one is the noble mansion in the capital, and the other is a farmer's family in a small mountain village. No matter how you look at it, there is a difference of hundreds of thousands of miles, so there is no possibility of any involvement. .

In Shuiyun Village, the old man and the old lady of the Gu family, whose tofu business is doing more and more prosperous, have often been distracted these days, and even the copper coins that they have always loved to count can't get their attention back. When eating, the old man almost sent the rice into his nostrils After being reminded by the eldest son, he simply put down his chopsticks and muttered again: "I don't know how your third brother is doing now."

Because I made tofu in the old house, I basically ate with the elders during the day, and Gu Zhao was not at home, so it was impossible for the elder Gu who had benefited from him to let go of his parents.

When the old man mentioned the third child again, the elder Gu was also very worried, but he had to cheer up and comfort the second elder: "The third brother is more sensible now, and he has arranged the house in an orderly manner, and the third brother went with Song Ze from the Song family. , and the young master of the Qi family will take care of him on the way, father and mother will wait for the good news of the third brother."

Xiao Zhao also echoed: "The child's father is right. I heard that if he passes this test, the third brother will be a child. After passing the test in July, he will be a scholar."

Little Zhao's expectations for Gu Zhao, his uncle, have also become higher. If Gu Zhao gets the honor of being a scholar, not to mention other benefits, the tax exemption alone will bring a lot of income to the family invisibly.

Now the tofu shop has only been open for a month, but the income is very considerable. Xiao Zhao often wakes up with a smile, and she can't wait to break a penny into two halves. She is sincerely grateful to Gu Zhao for this. My brother-in-law, so I sincerely hope that my brother-in-law can get the honor of a scholar, even if there are no such benefits.

The old lady became happy when she heard it, but said in her mouth: "He is a child, my old lady only expects him to come back safely after traveling so far."

The last exam was over, Gu Zhao and Song Ze met halfway and went out of the exam room together. They saw Mu Mu and Qi Yunfei staying outside at a glance. They also stared at the exit of the exam room. When they saw these two people appearing, they quickly waved their hands , and ran over to help them get into the carriage waiting on the side.

Gu Zhao couldn't laugh or cry, and shook them off: "Where is it so exaggerated, I will do it myself."

Song Ze was also embarrassed, and climbed into the carriage with Gu Zhao.

"Brother, hurry up and drink the stewed chicken soup, brother must be hungry." Mu Mu circled around Gu Zhao, Qi Yunfei couldn't intervene at all, so he had to turn his enthusiasm to Song Ze.

Gu Zhao enjoyed Mu Mu's service very comfortably. Although Mu Mu's origin is a bit troublesome, but seeing that he is serving him attentively now, Gu Zhao feels that it is not wrong to keep this child by his side. He has chicken soup to drink and snacks and fruits to eat , Gu Zhaomei was bubbling.

Song Ze felt it was funny to see Gu Zhao enjoying the feeding of the wood with peace of mind, but he was overwhelmed by Qi Ershao's enthusiasm.

After arriving at home, I took a bath with the hot water I prepared, cleaned myself from head to toe, and then ate a delicious bowl of chicken noodle soup. The two climbed into bed and fell asleep. I didn’t care about everything, and shut up in the examination room for two days. In fact, it’s okay, but my spirit is tortured, and I can’t sleep well at night, so I need to catch up on sleep after I come out.

After a good night's sleep, Gu Zhao was alive and well the next morning. He did morning exercises in the yard as usual. Song Ze also joined in. He found that the examination room after squatting for two days really needs a good body, because the next exam needs to be in the examination room. The time will be longer.

After the exam, the two of them didn't discuss the exam content and how they did. They completely put aside the government exam. Gu Zhao first took Song Ze to visit Qi's restaurant. The young and old gourmets came to order the dish of Buddha jumping over the wall, and the two of them brought the wood and went in to eat a bowl and other delicacies.

After two days of relaxation, Gu Zhao and Song Ze continued to hold on to the book together. The government examination was over, and the hospital examination was still far away. At the same time, Gu Zhao was also very concerned about the news outside. It is a good place to collect information. If you mention it to Brother Qi, Brother Qi will not let go of such benefits. People who do business are very aware of the importance of news.

During this period, Gu Zhao also did a very important thing, that is, he wrote a letter from his family seriously and went back to report to the elders that he was safe, and at the same time mentioned the situation between him and the Gao family. So as not to worry the elders too much.

Whenever possible, Gu Zhao doesn't want the second elder to experience twists and turns at such an old age, he just hopes that the second elder can enjoy happiness with him all the way in peace, but the old lady of the Gao family has repeatedly attacked to let him know that this is an indeterminate star. The bomb, it’s not that he can avoid the explosion by dodging, and the two elders will also be implicated. The end of the two elders in the book "Little Wife" is very miserable, and they will be ridiculed by the heroine in the book, saying that they They deserved this kind of fate, who told them to prefer Gu Zhao, this uncle.

Anyway, if you don't deal with the heroine, everything in the book will not end well.

Because of him, Qinghe County must be spreading the rumors between him and the Gao family. Guji Tofu Shop must be open now, the business will definitely not be bad, and the number of people coming and going will increase. Sooner or later, they will learn from other people. This lawsuit between him and the Gao family, rather than letting them know from other people, it is better for him to make it clear, otherwise the two elders are afraid that they will not be able to eat and sleep, and they may even pack their bags and come to Fucheng immediately I'm looking for him.

After the letter was written, Gu Zhao asked members of Qi's family to deliver the letter to his parents as soon as possible.

As Gu Zhao expected, the restaurants and teahouses in Qinghe County, the streets and alleys are all gossip about Gu Zhao and Gao's family. Many people just hear the rumors, but they say it as if they saw it with their own eyes.

"It can't be fake, what kind of family is the Gao family, the person surnamed Gu seems to be a farm boy from what you said, can the Gao family make a move to deal with a farm boy?"

"Bah! What's wrong, but it's his Gao family's hand. Even the Gao family master was taken away by the officials from the Fucheng. Many people saw it with their own eyes. Could it be that the Fucheng officials invited the Gao family's master as a guest?" Do you still remember the joke that Tian Shan made before? I heard that Tian Shan was bought by the Gao family to attack Gu Shusheng, but he didn’t want to be put in prison and squatting .”

"Yes, yes, my sister-in-law's third uncle's nephew told me that when Tian Shan was arrested that day, he actually found a cheat sheet on him. You said that Tian Shan is a bastard who doesn't know Chinese characters, so what is he doing with the cheat sheet? He didn't want to frame the scholar who took the exam that day, he didn't understand who he wanted to frame at that time, but now it's not clear, he just wanted to frame Gu Shusheng."

"But the Gao family is a wealthy family, why would you go out and harm a scholar born in a peasant family?"

"Who knows what this rich man thinks? Let me tell you, this Mr. Gao has a favored concubine who is pregnant. Haha, when the child is born, I don't know whether to call him Mr. Gao's father or grandfather." .”

This topic became even more explosive, and those who passed by couldn't help but stop and join in the gossip. In the end, the rumors changed in nature, and the common people spontaneously added a lot of eclectic topics, and finally they even walked in front of the Gao family's mansion. All the people couldn't help but look around the Gao's house, and everyone who came out of the Gao's house had to point and point.

Everyone gossips about the Gao family's affairs, of course, avoiding the people involved in the Gao family. As a result, when the Gao family knows the situation outside, all kinds of rumors and rumors are flying in the sky, and everyone can't care about having fun outside. The old lady asked for advice.

When people from the government office came to inquire and took Master Gao away that day, Mrs. Gao was not very worried about other things. She just asked people to send a letter to the capital quickly, leaving only concern for her son. Nothing will happen, but my son's trip to the government office is better than not being at home.

In front of the government officials, Mrs. Gao moved out the Yongning Hou Mansion in the capital. In her opinion, with the Yongning Hou Mansion as a backer, even the prefect of Fucheng would not dare to treat the Gao family. Quan Dang should go out to play, what annoyed her was that the Gu family boy escaped from her once or twice, not only escaped, but also dared to bring the matter to the government, and made the Gao family lose face after all.

This kid from the Gu family doesn't know what's good and what's wrong, do you really think his family's peasant boy can get ahead through the imperial examination?he dreams.

Author's gossip: Thank you for your support, okay!

Although I don't know why the niece in the capital knew of Gu Zhao's existence, and why she was made to keep an eye on Gu Zhao to prevent him from getting ahead, but Mrs. Gao looked down on Gu Zhao, a farm boy, and didn't care too much. He took him seriously, thinking that what his niece asked her to do was easy.

Ever since she married into the Gao family in Qinghe County, she has dreamed of returning to the prosperous capital and the most affluent place in the world every day. It is a pity that except for her son, the Gao family is all concubine daughters, and the only son is not As a person who strives to make progress, she can only pin her hopes on her grandchildren.

This son lived up to her expectations. All the smelly and smelly things were brought into the house, making the old lady have many grandchildren. In her opinion, one of these grandchildren can always be picked out to help her. To realize the dream of returning to the capital, because with the idea of ​​cultivating grandchildren, he took the smart and clever grandson Gao Jinheng to his side to raise him since he was a child, and pinned all the hopes of the Gao family on him.

Thinking about her grandson living in the capital and relying on the Yongning Hou Mansion, Mrs. Gao squinted her eyes happily. Her precious grandson will definitely have a great future, and she said to the servants around her: "The weather is going to be hotter." Let the mansion add a few summer shirts to Heng'er, send them to Heng'er sometime, and bring some silver taels, it's hard to get anywhere in the rich and powerful place in the capital without money."

Just as he was nagging, the Gao family rushed in.

"Old lady, it's not good."

"Grandmother, people outside are talking about our house and that poor scholar, and they say, and they say..." They were too embarrassed to say that their son was getting married with his father's concubine.

"Old lady, everyone in the county is talking about our family, what should we do, old lady?"

The old lady thumped the table next to her angrily: "Damn it, who is ruining the reputation of our Gao family? Send a message to the county magistrate, these untouchables are too shameful."

"Old lady, it's not just those untouchables who are talking about it, even the girls and benefactors of Yihong Courtyard are talking about our family." Good guy, this Gao family just came out of Yihong Courtyard. During the day, I ran to Yihong Courtyard.

"What are you afraid of when the magistrate of the county speaks out? I see that after the magistrate of the county comes forward, who else would dare to criticize our Gao family's affairs!"

"Yes, grandma, grandson will go to the magistrate right now."

The old lady didn't know that the words outside were getting worse and worse, but she also knew that it was a cheap thing for her Gao family to deal with a poor scholar, and her old lady still wanted this face.

The county magistrate was very happy when he heard the news from Gao's family. Even the government office has intervened in this matter. Is he, the county magistrate, able to manage it?However, he also pretended to dissuade people outside from talking about it, so it was almost impossible to hear people talking about it in public places, but in private, the more your officials prevented them from talking about it, the harder it was.

The county magistrate is actually also angry. Now it is found that the trouble that almost happened on the day of the county examination was caused by the Gao family. If a cheating candidate is caught, what face will he have as a county magistrate?In addition, he also hoped that under his rule, there would be a few more scholars who had achieved fame. He relied on this to achieve political achievements, but the Gao family was against him.

Besides, he also found out that although this Gu Zhao is a poor scholar, he has a very good relationship with Qi Ershao of the Qi family, and he also went to Fucheng with Qi Ershao. His wife robbed the business, and the county magistrate didn't want to offend the Qi family, after all, the eldest and young master of the Qi family was an official in the capital.

In such an environment, it was hard not to hear such news for Gu Erer and Gu Zhen who were in the county seat.

Gu Lao Er has always been a timid person. This time he dared to take his whole family to move to the county, which was because of his courage. Besides, his desire to stand out and impress others was too strong, so he took this step. After hearing the rumors outside that he had something to do with Gu Zhao, he immediately ran back to discuss with Gu Zhen.

Because of the peach pollen business, Gu Laoer also has a certain understanding of the big families in the county. The Gao family in the rumors is amazing. I heard that there are people in Beijing, and the golden grandson of the Gao family is now here. In Beijing, if Gu Zhao offends the Gao family, how can he end well?It doesn't matter if Gu Zhao didn't end well, he was worried that his family would be involved, and the Gao family would also yell at their second wife.

"Zhen'er, what do you think we should do now? Damn your uncle, he came to the county to take the exam, and he would offend the Gao family. He is a poor boy who can afford to offend the Gao family? It's all your grandma." Spoiled him, and I don't know how serious it is when I go outside, I knew that Dad should have broken his legs in the first place, so that he can't come out and offend others!"

Gu Laoer was furious, and he didn't have a good word for Gu Zhao. He didn't remember that Gu Zhao was his younger brother. He only knew that Gu Zhao had caused him a lot of trouble. He and Gu Zhen's business in the county was doing well. His money is as good as his life.

Gu Zhen was not surprised by this incident at all, but she was a little strange. In her previous life, did the affairs of Gu Zhao and Gao's family cause such troubles all over the city?And why did you only hear about the quarrel between the Gao family and Gu Zhao, but why didn't you hear about Gu Zhao's injury and return?

"Father, don't worry. This Gao family has made it clear that it is aimed at my uncle alone, and it hasn't hurt the rest of the Gu family until now? The Gao family also knows that one person does things and one person is in charge, which is different from the uncle. Listen, dad." I said, there are rumors about the Gao family and my uncle, Dad, please tell me carefully."

Gu Zhen thought, maybe it's because she stayed in the village at this time in her previous life and never came to the county town, so she didn't know anything about what happened in the county town, maybe the same thing happened in her previous life.

"Okay, okay, Dad said." Gu Erniu told the rumors related to Gu Zhao. For example, Gu Zhao caught the Gao family's wife and reported it to the Yamen, and the government sent officials to the Gao family in Qinghe County to inquire about the case. He took the master of the Gao family away again, and wait, anyway, in Gu Erniu's opinion, this matter must be Gu Zhao's fault, otherwise, why would the Gao family deal with Gu Zhao if they are so big?It's not that Gu Zhao himself is too ostentatious.

Gu Zhen was dumbfounded, and quickly grabbed her father's arm: "Father, you mean that Gu Zhao is in Fucheng now, and he ran to the yamen to sue people without losing his limbs?"

This is not right. In his previous life, there was no such thing as suing the yamen. Even Gu Zhao didn’t even know who ordered people to beat him to be disabled. It’s just because he became disabled and couldn’t take the imperial examination anymore. He has been decadent for a long time. She should be back by now. She was busy opening a shop and didn't take care of it for a while. Besides, in her opinion, it's something that won't change, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't care about it.

How could it not happen?

"Father, how do you think Gu Zhao went to Fucheng?" She didn't even call her uncle, and called him by his first name, but Gu Erniu didn't feel any problem.

"I heard that he went to Fucheng with the Qi family's convoy, but I didn't hear that he lost his limbs." No matter how much Gu Erniu hated this younger brother, he didn't want to see him lose his limbs, he wanted It was Gu Zhao who was getting worse and worse, and then seeing his life getting better and better, seeing Gu Zhao envious of currying favor with him.

Gu Zhen's mind suddenly buzzed, how could this happen?In her previous life, she had never heard that Gu Zhao had such a close relationship with the Qi family, and even took them with her when she went to Fucheng. Why is it like this?Where exactly has it changed?

Gu Erniu yelled a few times before waking Gu Zhen up. Gu Zhen waved her hand with a headache: "Father, let me go out and have a look first. If we are afraid that the Gao family will deal with us, then we must not talk about our relationship with Gu Zhao outside." , anyway, we have left Shuiyun Village now."

"Yes, girl Zhen, you are smart, if I don't tell you, who knows our relationship with the Gu family in Shuiyun Village." Gu Erniu deceived himself.

Gu Zhen was disdainful in her heart, but she didn't correct Gu Erniu's words. She hurried out to the market, wanting to know what other people were talking about, wanting to know more.

She didn't come back until dark, but she didn't find out the news she wanted. Although she added a lot of things, they didn't differ too much from what her father said. Gu Zhaozhen was in Fucheng and left with the second young master of the Qi family It was very close. As for the amputation of hands and feet, some villains wanted to do it. Unfortunately, Gu Zhao caught him on the spot and sent him to the Yamen. Only then did he find out that the instigator behind it was a servant of the Gao family.

When Gu Zhen came back, two younger sisters, Gu Laidi and Gu Zhaodi, one was ordered by Liu to make dinner and the other was ordered by Liu to wash clothes. Their lives here are not much better, they undertake all the housework in the family, and they have to be ordered around by Mrs. Liu, so they can't be idle all day long, which is much different from the life they originally thought.

They also wanted to wear beautiful skirts like their eldest sister, but they were scolded bloody by their mothers after only mentioning it once. , the eldest sister can get the attention of parents, maybe they don't have the ability to earn money as the eldest sister.

As soon as Gu Zhen came back, she locked herself in the room and didn't even come out to eat dinner. When she went out the next day, she became firm again. She didn't believe that Gu Zhao could really beat the Gao family. As for the more powerful people, officials and officials protect each other, how can Gu Zhao jump out of the Wuzhi Mountain of others?

So it's still the same sentence, Gu Zhao doesn't have this life, she just waits for Gu Zhao to fall down and then go to make fun of him.

After all, the news of Shuiyun Village was a bit closed. Although Gu Daniu and his wife often went to the town to deliver tofu, the people discussing this in the town did not connect Gu Ji Tofu Square with the rumored Gu Shusheng.

The old man and the old lady received the letter that Gu Zhao asked the Qi family to send back. The letter was read by Gu Ren, Gu Yi and Gu Zhen together. I understand the content of the letter.

After the three juniors finished reading the letter together, the old lady asked with confused eyes: "What does Zhaoer mean? What is the Gao family in this letter?"

"Mother, how do I feel that this Gao family is not good for our uncle, Yao'er, mother, did you understand correctly?"

Gu Ren nodded: "Mom, you understand correctly. In the letter, my uncle just mentioned the conflict between him and the Gao family. The Gao family didn't want my uncle to pass the scientific examination smoothly, and they thought badly about his future. How can this Gao family So abominable? Fortunately, my uncle also said in the letter that after he sued the yamen, the Gao family dared not do it again, because the scholars in the county and prefecture would not let the Gao family go, and the Gao family’s doing this would have too bad an impact.”

"Really?" The old man finally had a voice, "You read this letter to me again, and I will listen carefully."

Author's gossip: Thank you for your support, okay!

When reading the letter for the second time, San Xiao became much more fluent, and could roughly guess the meaning of unfamiliar words. The old man listened more carefully, and at the same time, a deep imprint was made in the middle of his brow.

After reading it, the old lady became even more flustered: "Old man, why don't we go to Fucheng to bring Zhao'er back?"

No matter how important the scientific examination is, it is not as important as the life of the old son. Outsiders are going to cut off the hands and feet of the old son, so let's go home quickly to keep safe.

The old man shook his head: "No, Zhao'er wrote this letter to remind us
