Chapter 526 Hilltop
Gu Jinli: "..." Finished.
However, Qin Erlang hates the countryside so much that he will definitely find a way to leave here as soon as possible. Even if Hui Niang has any thoughts, she will not be able to chase Qin Erlang.
As long as she doesn't see Qin Erlang again, Huiniang will be able to escape from this bloody pit.
Qin Sanlang stood in his yard and looked at the yard of Gu Jinli's house. He didn't see Gu Jinli's sister and brother coming back for a long time, so he walked towards Gu Jinli's house.
Halfway through, he stopped after seeing Gu Jinli talking to Luo Huiniang.
Not long after, Gu Jinli finished talking to Luo Huiniang and took Brother Cheng home.
After Qin Sanlang watched her enter the house, he turned back home, went to the kitchen, took out the bean dregs cake and sweet potato porridge from the pot, and called Mr. Qin to eat.
Although there was Songhua wine and two bowls of meat and vegetables sent from Gu Jinli's family, Mr. Qin only took a few bites before putting down his chopsticks.
Qin Sanlang knew that he was worried about his second brother, so he advised: "Grandpa, you should fill your stomach before waiting for someone else. Second brother will definitely wait until late at night before going home."
Mr. Qin sighed, not wanting Qin Sanlang to worry about him, so he picked up the chopsticks and ate his dinner.
Qin Sanlang cleaned up the dishes, did a set of boxing in the yard, took a shower, prepared two bean dregs cakes and a pot of hot water for Mr. Qin, lit mosquito coils for him, and went back to the house to sleep.
Qin Erlang did not return home until late at night.
Mr. Qin was very angry after waiting. It was Qin Erlang who scolded him as soon as he entered the main room: "Kneel down!"
Qin Erlang didn't argue and knelt down honestly.
Mr. Qin took out the cane and hit Qin Erlang hard, thirty times, until Qin Erlang's back was bleeding: "I'm going to beat you today to let you know that you can't do anything at will." People have murderous intentions. If you can even have murderous intentions for a girl who cares about you, then you are truly cruel and cruel! This will kill you and make you live among the dead in the future."
Qin Erlang sneered at this and said with a smile: "A soldier is also a blade. He is in charge of matters of life and death, and he sleeps in the place where corpses sleep. Isn't it a bit ridiculous that you always tell me that you can't be cruel and unkind? Isn't it ridiculous to be in charge of soldiers? Cruelty, how can you fight your way out of a dead place? Benevolence and righteousness? Oh, are you waiting to be killed by the enemy?"
His family is so benevolent that they ended up like this!
Besides, do you think he can't see Luo Huiniang's little thoughts? She just wanted to take the opportunity to get ahold of him. This kind of method has been used by various noble ladies on him since he was thirteen years old. Do you really think he will be fooled?
A humble peasant girl dared to miss him. Luo Huiniang was simply shameless.
After hearing this, Mr. Qin shook the hand holding the cane. He respected Qin Erlang and kicked him down. He pointed at him and cursed: "If I hear what you said, I will definitely I will never die with my eyes in peace.”
Qin Erlang endured the pain, propped up his body, and continued to kneel: "If I can't avenge my family, he will die in peace."
Seeing that Qin Erlang couldn't explain it, Mr. Qin threw away the cane, found a stick, and beat Qin Erlang so hard that his skin and flesh were torn and he vomited blood.
Qin Erlang endured it and did not fight back. He told himself in his heart that if he endured it a little longer, he would be able to leave this bad place soon, and Mr. Qin would no longer be able to control him in the future.
Qin Sanlang heard what was going on in the hall, and he already knew Qin Erlang's determination in his heart. He also guessed what Qin Erlang would do and leave this place... It seemed that he also wanted to do something, and he couldn't let Erlang do it. Brother has implicated several families.
…
The Qin family's affairs are unknown to the rest of the family. Everyone is busy counting the family's savings and waiting to go to the county to buy the Zou family's property.
Early the next morning, several families got up before dawn and brought the prepared money and household registration to the men who were going to the county town.
Because Uncle Tian was illiterate, Aunt Tian was afraid that Uncle Tian would not be able to understand the land deeds, so she asked Tian Erqiang to follow him to the county seat, and also asked Tian Erqiang to take the opportunity to go to the county seat to have a look and gain insight.
Brothers Gu Damu and Gu Dalin also took Gu Qingliang and Gu Qingtian with them.
Gu Dalin said: "Our two children are getting older. We need to take them out to see the world more before they can make a difference in the future. Look at Sanlang Erlang, An Ge'er, and Wu Ge'er. They have seen a lot more outside. All of them are promising, but they don’t look like us farm kids.”
Even Gu Dexing was better than his two children. Gu Dalin was very anxious when he saw it, so he wanted to take them out to see more.
Gu Qingliang and Gu Qingtian were very happy. They did not go to private school. They worked in the workshop every day, that is, they went to the workshop in the evening to learn how to read, and listened to Brother Kang Ping and Brother Kang Ming talk about some things in Fucheng. I yearn for a prosperous place like the county seat.
After the Tian family, Lao Yan's family, Gu Dagui's family, and Qi's family prepared their things, they gathered at Gu Jinli's house. After Gu Dashan and the others finished their morning work from the workshop, they all went straight to the county town.
Because there were so many people, and Gu Jinli and Gu Daya wanted to go, the Gu Dashan family's mule cart couldn't fit in. Uncle Tian and the others walked to the town, rented a mule cart, and then Gu Dalin drove to the county seat.
The person who went to the Qin family was Qin Sanlang. He drove Gu Jinli's mule cart and waited for Gu Dalin and others, and then ran towards the county town together.
In the yamen, Luo Wu heard that they were coming and went to pick them up in person. He took them to the official room and met the scribe who specialized in handling confiscated family property.
The clerk's surname was Shi. He had already heard from County Magistrate Xu. Seeing that Luo Wu had brought the people, he directly took out a large booklet and handed it to them: "This is the Zou family's property in Tianfu County. They can all be sold to you." Yes, you can see for yourself what you want to buy, and then tell me when you’re done.”
Anything that cannot be sold to them is not recorded in this book, but in the book held by Master Tian.
He added: "Don't worry, you can take your time and read it. If you don't understand, just ask me."
The county magistrate attaches great importance to these families. I heard that a boy from these families is now in Jinling Mansion and has friendship with the eldest son of the Zheng family and the Shangguan family. This kind of people, even if they are mud-legged, he has to take good care of them.
The several families were very happy. They gathered around the brochure and were so excited that the third grandfather said: "Xiaoyu also wants to buy some property, let her see it first."
Several families were able to have money to buy real estate, all thanks to Gu Jinli. Hearing this, he nodded in agreement: "Xiaoyu will look first."
After Gu Jinli took the book, he read it quickly and was very happy to see that there were not only houses, shops, villages, fields, but also hills on it.
After drinking tea, she came to Secretary Shi with a brochure, pointed to two hills and a village very close to Qingfu Town, and asked: "Uncle, what is the price of these two hills and a village? How valuable is it?" ?”
Cheaper!
She knew that there were many pine trees planted on these two hills. People in the town said that they were used to produce pine oil. They could make a lot of money every year just from cutting pine oil.
If she buys these two hills, she can not only make money cutting pine oil, but also grow medicinal materials in the mountains, which is a very good deal.
Moreover, these two hills are connected with Zhuangzi, so they are easy to take care of and worth buying.
