After dressing as a widow

"Huh—" The huge broad knife appeared in Gu Lin's hand at some point, only an inch away from the old lady Gu's neck.

The old lady Gu's face was tense and trembling. She didn't expect that Gu Lin would do anything to her. After all, she is also Gu Lin's grandmother.

Just like Gu Da back then, she never felt that there was anything wrong with what she did, it just popped out of her stomach, even if she killed him, he wouldn't have any complaints.

But Gu Da's filth is too ruthless, she brought people to look for it several times, but she didn't take advantage of it, and the second son who was on the cusp of her heart was chopped off by Gu Da, so the old lady didn't care. Dare to find Gu Da.

It wasn't until Gu Da died that she felt that the opportunity had come, and she couldn't wait to bring the rest of the Gu family to come again.

She thought well, once Gu Day died, the bewitching Lin Zhen had nothing to fear, as long as he handled Gu Shuanzi, no one else would dare to say anything.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhen, who looks unreliable on weekdays, is really a secretive person. He didn't let her take advantage of it, and even pulled the old woman from the village head's house, so that he couldn't even enter the door of everyone Gu.

The old woman Gu was frightened by the knife in front of her eyes, her teeth chattered, and she said, "You, what are you in charge of? I don't know. My grandson is a scholar. If it wasn't for the drought this year, he couldn't go to the town to take the exam. He would have been a child." , I will be a high official in the future!"

"If there is something wrong with me, I will have good fruit for you in the future!"

Gu Lin expressionless: "I'll wait."

"roll."

The huge broad knife was withdrawn, and the blade that had killed countless people was so sharp that it cut off the hair around Old Lady Gu's ears.

The old lady Gu let out a scream, touched her head that was still intact on her neck, and ran away like shit.

Gu Lin walked to the window, found the two pieces of wooden strips that had been dismantled, and nailed them again. He looked at the house he had lived in for seven or eight years, and said to Zhang Tie behind him, "Go, go and visit me. leave on father's grave."

Gu Da's tomb was really desolate, the weeds were taller than most of the common people, and Gu Da's tombstone could not be seen at all.

The huge broad knife in Gu Lin's hand opened the way ahead, cleared the tombstone and the weeds on the grave, and piled them aside, while Zhang Tie and the others cleaned out the surrounding area.

There are also thumb-sized saplings coming out of the roots. Although they are small now, in two years they will be as thick as wrists, which is difficult to deal with.

Standing in front of Gu Da's tombstone, Gu Lin looked at the years of wind and rain, the tombstone had already had blurred handwriting, there was a line of small characters on it, Zi, Gu Shuanzi, and another line, Wife, Lin Zhen.

He knelt in front of Gu Da's grave and kowtowed three times.

"Let's go." Gu Lin stood up and left Datianzi Village with Zhang Tie and others.

After the village chief who summoned the villagers of Datianzi Village notified the news that the refugee army had been wiped out, Aunt Lan had a surprised expression on her face, "So those people we met at the entrance of the village just now were Gu Shuanzi and the others?"

"Gu Shuanzi? Has he become an official?"

"That's right, leading several people, it's extremely majestic."

"Does the old lady Gu's family still dare to attack the house left by Gu Da? I saw her sneaking up in Gu Da's house a few days ago."

"Old lady Gu? I met her on the road just now, and she looked so frightened that she lost her soul."

People in Datianzi Village are very curious about Gu Shuanzi. After all, Gu Shuanzi's situation back then, when his father died and he had an unscrupulous stepfather, everyone would shake their heads when they saw it. This child might be in trouble. , I can't stand up to the Gu family's family.

Who would have thought that seven or eight years later, she would grow up and be promising.

Even officials the size of sesame seeds and mung beans who are only in charge of a few people are different from them.

Gu Lin doesn't know about these anymore, and even if she knew, she wouldn't take it to heart.

Before dark, he, Zhang Tie and others rushed to Liyu Village. Standing outside the yard, they could see the green and fuzzy things in the row of wooden barrels by the wall. It was very comfortable when there was yellow everywhere.

He knocked on the door, and soon heard a familiar voice from inside: "Here we come."

"Squeak—" the door opened, and Lin Zhen stood inside, looking up at him slightly, "Gu Lin, are you done with your work?"

Gu Lin said: "Follow the order of the inspection, and go to each village to inform the news that the refugee army has been wiped out by the imperial officers and soldiers. I just came from Datianzi Village."

Hearing what he said about the refugee army wiped out by the court officers and soldiers, Lin Zhen frowned. Looking at the expressions of Zhang Tie and others behind him, there was nothing he didn't understand. Someone came to pick their fruits.

Lin Zhen stepped aside and asked them to come in: "It's just that they are cooking, you are resting here tonight, and you will go to other places tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Lin Zhen yelled at Eldest Sister Lin who was cooking in the house, "Eldest Sister-in-Law and Second Sister-in-Law, let's raise the sorghum rice, Gu Lin and the others are here."

The people in the room heard the sound, and several people came out, Wang Qin, Huang Yuwen, Zhong Yan, Lin Zhuzi, Lin Shitou, and other members of the Lin family.

Seeing that it was Gu Lin, Wang Qin and Huang Yuwen couldn't mention how excited they were. These days, they already knew from the Lin family that Gu Lin had also recuperated here before, but they left the second day after they came and didn't meet them. .

The same is true for Zhong Yan, but he experienced the death of his mother, and he was hit too hard. He couldn't hide the haggardness on his face, and just bowed his hands to Gu Lin from a distance.

"Gu Lin!"

"We finally met!"

Wang Qin is a bully in front of outsiders, but he can't be a bully here with Gu Lin. He put his arms around Gu Lin's shoulders, and couldn't help but blushed: "We parted in a hurry that day, and we thought we never met again. It's that day."

Huang Yuwen was much gentler, he still had a thin smile on his face: "You don't know him, besides talking about Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang these days, it's you, I heard that you led people to kill the refugee army , gearing up to go too.”

Wang Qin put his arms around Gu Lin's shoulders: "You can take me with you this time, as you saw on the road before, my fists and feet are not weak, and I can swing a sword twice, and I also killed a few refugee soldiers."

Gu Lin was embraced by him without taking his hand off, and said calmly: "The refugee army has been wiped out by the court officers and soldiers. We came to the village this time to tell the villages not to worry about the harassment of the refugee army anymore, and to live as before."

Wang Qin looked puzzled: "The refugee army that the imperial officers and soldiers wiped out?"

"But Uncle Lin said that you..." Wang Qin has been studying for so many years, so there is still something he doesn't understand.

He angrily said, "These people are real!"

"Okay, let's go in and talk." Lin Zhen closed the courtyard door and let them go in first.

Lin Zhuzi, Lin Shitou, Lin Xingxiang, Lin Huaixiang and the others also greeted Gu Lin. The whole family could not sit in the house, so they took chairs and sat under the eaves in front of the house.

Wang Qin couldn't wait to pat Gu Lin's arm, telling him to talk quickly.

In front of the Lin family and them, Gu Lin didn't say anything about those scenes, but told them in detail about the fact that they wiped out the refugee army and returned to the town, but all the commanders and envoys went.

Finally said: "" This time I led the people of the tenth small flag to come to the villages to inform everyone, and the other is to go deep into the mountains to bring back the original people in the town as much as possible. "

Wang Qin and Huang Yuwen, who still had an angry expression on their faces, were excited and flustered when they heard that he was going to the mountains to find the people in the town.

Wang Qin's hands were trembling, and he looked at Gu Lin: "Can I go with you? You also know that my parents and Yuwen's parents have retreated to the mountains under your cover. I want to follow you Go find them."

Huang Yuwen next to Wang Qin also looked at Gu Lin, and said with a tight voice, "Gu Lin, I also want to go with you."

The bodies of the two of them have improved a lot after these days of self-cultivation, at least they don't look like they will collapse when the wind blows. The fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy recovers quickly after eating and drinking.

Gu Lin looked at them and said, "Yes."

The refugee army in the left and right mountains has been wiped out by them, even if there are a few leftovers, they can deal with them. Wang Qin and Huang Yuwen don't need their back or support, so they are not a burden.

Wang Qin and Huang Yuwen knew Gu Lin's temper, so he nodded, then it's all right.

The two of them hugged Gu Lin's shoulders at once, so excited that they didn't even call Gu Lin's name, and they took one bite at a time.

Lin Zhen watched happily from the side, and said, "You guys are chatting, I'll go see how the food is going."

He got up and went to the stove, Lin Xiaoyao was just grabbing dried fungus from his pocket and putting them in a basin, soaking them in water.

Mrs. Lin hurriedly washed the sorghum rice because of Gu Lin and the others who came suddenly. Before the steam in the wooden bucket came out, she added water to the pot on the other stove, and put the freshly washed sorghum rice into the pot. Pour it in.

Lin Zhen looked at it and said, "I'm going to pull some cabbage, the first ones can be eaten."

Lin Xiaoyao pressed down the fungus with chopsticks and raised her head: "It's only as high as your finger, it's a pity to eat it."

It’s not easy to see some green now, the vegetables planted in those wooden pots and barrels are very expensive, and his third brother is very careful to watch them on weekdays, even if a tree is wilted, it will be very distressing, if you wait another half a month, it will be great dishes.

Lin Zhen picked up a pot casually: "It's a pity, eat it and sow new seeds, and there will be more seeds in ten days or so."

"We've been eating dried vegetables for more than half a year, so try some fresh ones."

As soon as he said it, Lin Zhen became hungry.

It’s been a long time since I ate fresh vegetables. I didn’t eat anything good in the last two months in Fucheng. It’s lucky that I didn’t starve to death on the way back. Dried bamboo shoots, fungus, salt, and dried vegetables are mixed, and sometimes these dried vegetables are not even available. A bowl of sorghum buckwheat rice, a bowl of light salt water, and salt water for dinner.

Lin Xiaoyao and sister-in-law Lin also swallowed their saliva. They looked at the buckets of cabbage and radish seedlings in the yard every day, and took great care of them. Not a drop of used water was wasted, and they were all watered.

Lin Zhen realized that he was not alone, so he smiled and went out with the basin.
