Chapter 96: Lu San comes to visit

Chapter 96 Lu San comes to visit

 Gu Jinli was very satisfied with what He San Leizi said, but she still raised the wooden stick, and in He San Leizi's frightened eyes, she banged it and knocked He San Leizi unconscious.

After He San Lezi was knocked unconscious, Qin Sanlang untied him and threw him in the kitchen.

Gu Jinli picked up the old hen that had been plucked by He Sanshengzi, and ran with Qin Sanlang toward the old house at the end of the village.

 When the two came back, several families were still discussing things at Gu Jinli's house, all of them looking gloomy.

Seeing Qin Sanlang and Gu Jinli coming in, carrying an old hairless hen in their hands, he was startled and asked, "Where have you been? Where did the old hen come from?"

  None of their families raised chickens.

"He San Lezi is filial." Gu Jinli smiled and gave the old hen to Cui and said to her, "Mom, we are hungry. Go and stew this old hen, and let's have a bowl of soup."

  Anyway, the old hen was stolen by He Sanshengzi and had nothing to do with her.

Mrs. Cui was so frightened that she took the old hen. When Gu Jinan heard that something was wrong, he quickly asked: "He Sanshengzi is filial? Did you go to see He Sanshengzi?"

 Everyone was frightened when they heard it.

The third grandma ran up and looked at Gu Jinli. After seeing no injuries on her body, she said happily: "You are too courageous. How can you go to He Sanshengzi? He is a bastard. What if something happens?" What to do?”

Gu Jinli took two small stools, handed one to Qin Sanlang, and sat down with the other stool. Unfortunately, after they sat on straw mats for half a month, they finally had stools at home.

“Third grandmother, don’t worry, He San Leizi couldn’t beat us, and we beat him up.” Gu Jinli told everyone that they had found He San Leizi.

The family members were frightened when they heard this. Mrs. Chu asked worriedly: "Won't Mr. He San bring the gangsters from the village to come to us to settle accounts?"

Qin Sanlang said: "Don't worry, Aunt Luo, He Sanshengzi is so frightened that he doesn't dare to mess with us again."

He San Leizi is the kind of **** who bullies the weak the most and only dares to bully those who are weak. Xiaoyu threatened him with his life. Even if he hated them, he did not dare to risk his own life.

Hearing this, Mr. Chu felt relieved.

Gu Jinli said: "He Sanleizi said that the county magistrate has a grudge against the county captain, that the county magistrate is related to the Lu family, and that the Lu family and the county magistrate want our prescription, so let's go to the county captain. This recipe Even if the son is given to the county captain for nothing, the Lu family and Zou Xiancheng will never get it!"

Chen heard this and shouted: "Why give it to the county captain? What kind of official is the county captain? Isn't the county magistrate the most important person in this county? Why don't we ask for the county magistrate?"

Mr. Qin knew some of the official system of Da Chu and said: "The county magistrate is the chief official and changes every three years. We have settled in Tianfu County and will live here for more than three years. The county magistrate and the county lieutenant are the assistant officials, and the court governs them." If it is not strict, but if it is done well, it can last a lifetime and even be passed on to promising descendants in the family. So it is better to find a county captain than to find a county magistrate."

Father Luo nodded: "Xiaoyu and Mr. Qin are right. It is better for us to ask the county captain for this matter. The county captain has a grudge against the county magistrate. Maybe because of this grudge, the county captain is willing to protect him." Follow us."

Gu Dafu was a little worried: "We are just a group of victims fleeing famine. Will the county captain help us?"

Luo's father said: "We have a tofu recipe in our hands. It is a fresh food. If we give the recipe to the county captain, the county captain should be willing to protect us."

Chen's heart ached terribly: "The tofu recipe is our livelihood, do we really want to give it away? Can't we give it away?"

Third Grandpa sighed: "If the county magistrate really wants to rob it, we can't keep this recipe. We might as well give it to the county magistrate's enemies in exchange for shelter."

Gu Jinli said: "We only know that the county magistrate has a grudge against the county captain. We still don't know what kind of person the county captain is. We have to check first. If he is a good character, we can work with him to make a living in tofu. If his character is not good, we will find other ways to deal with the county magistrate."

She didn’t want to kill the wolf and attract another tiger.

Mrs. Chen was still worried: "If the county captain doesn't help us, and the county magistrate takes away our tofu recipe, what should we do?" He added: "We are victims of famine and cannot change our household registration within three years. , if we don’t have the tofu recipe, we won’t be able to leave, and we will be bullied to death. Hey, why are these days so sad?”

The more Chen talked, the angrier he became. He jumped up and scolded the Lu family and the county magistrate's family.

Gu Dagui grabbed her and scolded: "Why are you howling in the middle of the night? You are still trying to think of something to do. What depressing words did you say?"

Gu Jinli knew that this matter had made several families very upset, so he said: "Don't worry, even if we can't make this tofu, we can still make other things to sell. I will make more than just tofu."

And she won't let this tofu business fail and want to **** things from her hands. Yes, you can trade your life for it!

Mrs. Chen's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she hurriedly asked her: "Xiaoyu, are you telling the truth? What other good things can you do? Please tell my aunt."

Third Grandpa interrupted Chen: "Okay, let's talk about this later. Let's discuss what we need to do tomorrow first."

 Finally, after some discussion, Third Grandpa and Mr. Qin decided to divide their men into four teams.

One team will continue to set up a stall tomorrow; the other team will continue to make tofu at home and look after the house; Qin Sanlang and Mr. Qin will go to the county seat to inquire about the county captain; the third grandfather will take Gu Jinan with the post given by the old doctor Wu. Go to Shangjia Village and visit Shang Xiucai.

Even though they are in trouble now, Gu Jinan still has to go to school.

 After the several families discussed it, it was already Haishi. After everyone drank a bowl of old hen soup cooked by Cui and a bean dregs cake, they went home.

The next day, before they went out, a woman in her fifties with squinty eyes and a sharp mouth came to Gu Jinli's house, patted the door of Gu Jinli's house, and shouted into the yard: "Gu, our third master has something to do with you. Let your head come out and follow the old lady to see the third master."

 Qin Sanlang and Mr. Qin were packing their things and planned to go to the county to inquire about the news. When they heard the mother-in-law's words, they put down their things and stood in their yard to watch.

After a while, they saw the third grandma and the third grandpa coming out to open the door and talking quietly to the woman.

After the woman heard what the third grandma and the third grandpa said, she was furious. She pointed at the two of them and said, "Don't be so shameless. Go to the village and ask about who the third grandpa wants to see. Who dares not to go?" "

The third grandma frowned and said firmly: "We still have work to do at home, and we don't have time to see your third master. We'll go after we finish our work."

"Go after you finish your work?" The mother-in-law sneered: "What kind of work do you have to do? Make tofu, but don't do it. From now on, it will be our Lu family's property."

These words are very excessive, which shows how arrogant the Lu family is at ordinary times. Even a servant dares to speak loudly about trying to seize other people's property.

Gu Jinli took a broom and beat the woman all over her body: "Get out of here, don't stop me from sweeping the floor in my house."

“Hey, you stinky girl, where are you going to sweep?” The old lady hurriedly backed away, avoiding Gu Jinli’s broom. After she exited the yard, Gu Jinli slammed the door and closed it.

The mother-in-law was so angry that she put one hand on her waist and pointed at the Gu family's mud yard with the other and cursed: "A group of beggars who have fled from famine, you are so arrogant, just wait, the third master will not let you go!"

 If they offend the Lu family, they will not be able to survive in this village.

 The mother-in-law left angrily.

Family members all ran to Gu Jinli's house to ask about what happened just now. They thought the Lu family would send someone again, so they didn't dare to leave. They all gathered at Gu Jinli's house and waited.

 But they didn't wait for the Lu family's servants to come, but they did wait for Lu Laosan.
