A misty rain painting the hometown

Wang Yiwei looked at the head of the bed, his anger was like gossamer, there was still black blood at the corner of his mouth.

"Someone come and carry it away."

"Hundred taels of silver to carry the corpse back, your Excellency is not afraid of bad luck, besides, your official slave has just stained my subordinate with blood, he has rarely seen the world, and he is still in shock, so I'm afraid we can't just let it go."

Wang Yiwei watched Gu Ji shake off the bloody coat in his hand.

"How are you going to end it?"

"My subordinates are very noble. I'm afraid that this kind of bad luck can't be said in one or two sentences. If you don't take good care of the officials and slaves you own, the master will take half of the crimes. Either you leave these two officials and slaves who committed crimes." The deed of selling one's body, you can either keep the silver ten thousand taels, or meet the official, you choose one."

"you!"

Wang Yiwei looked at Gu Liang again, he is only the son of a grain and oil workshop, where can he collect ten thousand taels of silver.

"I see that you are not a rich man, so leave a deed of sale, and I will give you another five hundred silver taels, which should be used to buy two disaster bags for my subordinates."

"My lord, make it, make it!"

Wang Yiwei followed the attendant to attach the ear canal. After a long time, Wang Yiwei Fang took out two sales contracts from his bosom and handed them to Gu Ji. Gu Ji counted out five hundred silver notes to him.

"It's good to leave."

As soon as the group left the house, Gu Ji yelled at Wang Yan.

"Hurry up and take this money to the doctor! The rest of the money is also in charge of the three guest rooms next to it."

Wang Yan took the silver and wiped his face and hurried out.

"The three of you come here. I am so good at serving people, I will rush to Caoying County."

Gu Ji also greeted the shopkeeper, left a hundred taels of silver on the account of the fourth room, and drove to the Caoying county government office in a carriage.

In the afternoon, the Caoying County Government found Cheng Xiujin, and at this time Cheng Xiujin was also in a state of desperation.It has been a while since Gu Qiao'er was sold into the Jiaofang, and the emperor didn't know why the emperor went crazy, Yu Xuan waiter made a mistake two years later and only pursued the punishment.Gu Jin was adopted by his elder brother Gu You and his concubine, Gu Yu, suffered miserably.

"Find me?"

"Yes, he said to find the county magistrate."

"Please come in."

Seeing the ordinary youth, Cheng Xiujin didn't think much about it.

"What's the use of finding a knowledge book?"

Guji sat in front of him, staring at Rendao.

"Gu Jin's family has been reduced to official slaves, can Zhishu tell us where he is going?"

"What do you mean?"

"Don't get me wrong, I met Gu Liang, a fugitive slave in Lijin County, and saw that he was of good character, so I wanted to gather this family so that I could have someone to take care of me."

Cheng Xiujin choked up for a moment, turned around and took the file, opened it and read.

"Fanggu works as a cook in Shanxingtang in Caoying County, Gu Jin feeds horses in Yang's Mansion in Caoying County, Aunt Qin does cleaning in Yun's Mansion, and only Gu Qiaoer works in Ziyan Pavilion Teaching Workshop in Lijin County."

"I'll go to Ziyan Pavilion first."

In Ziyan Pavilion, Gu Qiaoer is practicing dancing, and the dancer is hitting her with her right hand with a ruler.Gu Ji coughed softly, the dancer moved the ruler, and Gu Qiaoer looked back at Gu Ji.Momo has climbed upstairs with the box.

"Stop talking nonsense, sell your life."

The mother of Jiaofang was also quick, and handed over the deed of prostitution to Guji.Gu Ji took her three thousand taels of silver and dragged Qiaoer back to Beifu Inn.

"Qiaoer, don't be afraid. Your elder brother Gu Liang lives in the compartment. Tomorrow I will bring back your aunt, father and aunt. You should eat some food first, and then go to sleep. You will be the young lady again tomorrow morning."

Gu Ji was also a little uneasy, and his brother still hasn't woken up yet.Gu Yan said that the person fell off a cliff, and there might be something wrong with the viscera, but the doctor said that it can be cured, but it will not move for half a month.

The next day, I went to Shanxingtang to buy Fanggu with 50 taels of silver, took Fanggu and went to Yang’s Mansion to buy a bad old man with 200 taels of silver, and finally Aunt Qin, in addition to jewelry, wrapped in a headscarf, which added a touch of elegance , It took [-] taels of silver to buy back the man, and Gu Ji took the three of them back to the Laifu Inn.

Bought good clothes and jewelry.The family of five settled down for the time being, and Gu Jinfang approached Gu Ji to thank him for saving him.

"You're welcome, it's easy to meet by chance."

On another five days, Gu Liang woke up and wanted to sit up.

"The doctor said you can't move within a month, you can get better faster by lying down."

Gu Jin's family of five reminisced about the past, and then Gu Ji asked Gu Yanyuan why the Gu county magistrate's family was like this.Gu Yan elaborated on the matter of the emperor chasing and punishing Gu Xuan's attendant for murdering the prince.Gu Liang's closest relatives and uncle's family had been beheaded, and his relatives and offshoots had also been reduced to official slaves.

Heh, if one person is angry, someone has to pay for it with his life. When will the heavens open their eyes.

"It's okay, go get busy."

In the past few days, Gu Ji taught Mao Yixi three people how to read and write.Fang Ru and Aunt Qin teach Qiaoer embroidery.Gu Jin reads books, Gu Yan guards his young master Gu Liang.

Most of the month has passed.Gu Liang was able to get out of bed.Half a month later, Gu Jitian sold a new carriage, and Gu Yan drove his masters, a group of ten people set off from Lijin County and returned to the northern ancient courtyard.

Every day I went to the inn in the county town to rest, and hurried on my way. On the way, I picked up two more beggars, cleaned them up, and threw them into the car.

At the end of September, a group of 11 people arrived at the ancient courtyard before noon, and had lunch in the dining hall. Yuan Fei drove away the five beggars, and Gu Ji took Gu Jin's family into the third gate of the ancient courtyard.Arrange for Gu Qiaoer to live in Xianlang Pavilion, Gu Liang and Gu Yan to live in Feiquan Pavilion, Fang Ru to live in Changsong Pavilion, Aunt Qin to live in Yunxiang Pavilion, and Gu Jin to live in Heyin Pavilion.

Then I went to Xiyi Youyuan to pick six girls aged seven to nine, and divided them into five pavilions to serve five people, and three boys aged six to ten were Gu, Fang and Qin's servants.Nine men and girls are also official slaves, they are not allowed to enter private schools, and they mostly work in the workshop. Now they only eat, get up at night, do laundry, and clean up.

After hearing the letter, Qingqiu rushed back from the restaurant to the ancient courtyard. When seeing the five people, she held Qiaoer and cried again.

"The owner of the ancient courtyard is Gu Ji, Guzhong Village, Jianan County. He is the adopted grandson of the ninety-year-old Guli. Qiulai made an introduction. Two years ago, Qingqiu was brought into the ancient courtyard as a beggar, and now he is the owner of Qingqiu Wangu Restaurant, but Qingqiu has always been the son of the ancient family in Caoying County, and he dare not forget the masters What everyone has seen is not the real face of Guji. Guji has been traveling on the north-south trade road all year round, and he has no choice but to do so. He will come to see the masters and sons later. Qingqiu will introduce everyone to the ancient courtyard. Please come with Qingqiu. "

The Gentleman's Courtyard has been put in order, and Ye Kang is leading people to cultivate flowers, plants and trees. After seeing it, Gu Ji walked slowly back to the big kitchen, picked out the ingredients, and went to Xiaoyao Pavilion to cook the meal.How to revoke the family's slave status has been the biggest concern of Gu Ji's mind for two months.

The unitary meal is placed in Heyin Pavilion.

"Jiutong is in the outside room, and this happens to be a table for eight people. Qingqiu has returned, and I think he knows Guji's origin. This is Guji's true face. What do you think?"

Gu Ji took a sand hat, dressed in red and white, like plum branches sprinkled with snow, the heat is full of three points of coldness, gorgeous and noble.

"Small……"

"Stop, wake up, don't be dazed again."

Guji patted Qingqiu's cheek beside him.Hearing this, the whole family looked at each other and took a breath.Although there is a gap of several years, this Guji is like the same person as the 14-year-old Guji, only one older and one younger. It is no wonder that Qingqiu is like this.

Gu Liang's face turned pale. At first he only thought it was just the same name, but then he expected that even the appearance was so similar.

"Let's eat, it's all home-cooked food. Guji has no attendants, and he has to take care of his own food and clothing all year round. He has learned some dishes and cooked some by himself. Let Qingqiu and his young master make a break." , always being used as a stand-in, Guji is also very annoying. Second, it can be regarded as taking over the dust for you on behalf of Qingqiu. Third, people have to look back when they live, and life can and will always get better. In my eyes, Guji , there is no distinction between high and low, but it depends on the depth of fate. You wait and live in this three-in-one courtyard. If you are bored, you can go outside the courtyard. The ancient courtyard has nearly nine thousand acres of land and countless workshops. Qingqiu is Steward."

Youfan is very rich, but also very quiet.Qiao'er's temperament is still naive, she looked at Guji for a long time before picking up her chopsticks to eat.Guji told Qingqiu the ins and outs of meeting this big family.Gu Yan also interrupted with a smile.

"If it weren't for the basin of water, I don't know what would happen to the masters now. This is fate. Mao Yixi's stupid appearance that day, I will never forget it."

Guji laughed.

"I just changed into new clothes, and Shang told him to take care of them. I have been a beggar for ten years, and I am timid and afraid of getting into trouble. You scared him silly. When the shop boy ran over, he was still stretching his neck. Stubbornly."

After speaking, he tilted his head and looked at Gu Liang carefully.When Gu Liang looked at him, he had already looked at Qiaoer.Qiaoer is 13 years old.It looks really good-looking, I don't know who will be cheaper in a few years.

The nine children in the outer room were blushing, and it was much more delicious than the big kitchen. There were twenty dishes and one soup for a table, and they ate everything.After resting for a while, the nine men cleaned up the outer room together, and stood by the inner door, listening to the masters chatting and eating.

"Youlan was beaten into a cold official, and Gu Yu was bestowed to death."

"Isn't the ancient Zongfu affected?"

"It's not all. Gu Ran, although Gu Jun was a Jinshi, he was only a magistrate from another county, and only Gu Yun entered the Imperial Academy. Gu Liang was influenced by Gu Yu and was sent back to Cao Ying."

"It's just a battle for the heir. Marquis Huguo has a way to protect himself, but Zuo is just sacrificing a side branch."

He knows everything.Jiutong evacuated the dining table early, and the rest went to rest too.Gu Ji and Gu Jinshang were chatting in the study of Heyin Pavilion.Seeing the gradual sinking and roundness, Gu Ji stood up and said goodbye.

"It's getting late, Gu Ji rests, and Gu Ji bids farewell."

The next day, Guji sent war slaves to deliver Maofan from Zhuyuan to the three entrances and five pavilions.He had eaten early in the morning and crossed the river to Dayu Mountain.

After Qingqiu asked the fifth master to take care of himself, he went back to Qingqiu Restaurant to take care of it.

Gu Qiaoer couldn't stay idle, and ran out of the ancient courtyard with the two maids, while Gu Liang wandered around with Gu Yan.Gu Jin went to see the workshop with Fanggu and Qin Keyun.For several days, everyone in the ancient courtyard knew that these people were different from everyone else in the ancient courtyard, and some even suspected that they were the rightful masters of the ancient courtyard.

Chickens fly, cows crow, and horses crow.There are rumors from time to time in the forest, most of them are being chased away, and the fruit melons are harvested for the last time of the year.Mountains, forests.There was an endless stream of figures.Picking, delivering, passing, loading, transporting, and receiving are in order.On the ridge of the field, on the heavy branch, Gu Liang picked a large tangerine. He peeled and tasted a petal, and the sweetness brightened his eyes. Then he knew that the Yuan's Fresh Fruit Shop in Caoying County came from before him, and immediately divided most of it with ancient rock.

"Freshly picked, fresh and sweet!"

Gu Yan twitched the corners of his mouth, and finished eating with two or three bites.

"Unfortunately, he is not the young master."

Gu Liang didn't make a sound, and walked all the way down to the thatched shed, there were nearly a thousand calves and big cows.Even a pen full of pigs can't see the end of the shed.All kinds of carriages and carts are neatly arranged in the parking yard, almost full.
