Chapter 575 Mrs. Xia

After hearing this, Qin Erlang, in order to get rid of Luo Huiniang, had no choice but to go out to meet her, and even pulled Qin Sanlang into her, lest the local girl of the Luo family plot against him and ask him to marry her, and Sanlang was there to prove it.

Luo Huiniang was very happy to see him come out, and hurriedly handed him the gift she had prepared: "Second Brother Qin, this is the practice ceremony I made for you, take it...and come back safely."

Qin Erlang didn't pick it up, but asked with a sneer, "What did you send? A purse or a handkerchief?"

If these things are really given away, it can only show that Luo Huiniang is a bitch who wants to climb high.

Luo Huiniang said: "No, it's a pair of leather palm protectors, which can protect the palms and prevent the handle of the knife from scratching the palms."

She stayed up late and worked for two days, and her hands were full of needle holes.

Qin Erlang didn't believe it, and said, "Open the bag."

Luo Huiniang hurriedly opened the bag, holding the mouth of the bag to show him: "Here, look clearly, there are really only a pair of leather palm protectors, and this piece of sheepskin cost me half a tael of my own money, which is very expensive."

After hearing this, Qin Erlang grabbed the bag and walked away.

But after walking a few steps, he stopped again, turned his head and said to Luo Huiniang, "I hate you... a peasant girl like you should find a peasant man to marry, this is your destiny, Gao Zhi is not so easy to climb of."

When Luo Huiniang heard his words, she cried angrily, and shouted at Qin Erlang: "Second brother Qin, you are sick, I just thank you for saving me, I didn't think of anything else, you are too bullying!"

After speaking, he ran away crying.

Qin Erlang looked at the back of her running away, turned around and went back to the house, and thought... did he think too much?Or maybe I shouldn't have said such hurtful things... Although the Luo family girl is not good enough for him, she is a good girl.

Gu Jinli waved at Qin Sanlang as a greeting, and immediately ran after Luo Huiniang.

Luo Huiniang didn't cry for a long time. When Gu Jinli caught up, she had already wiped away her tears and said, "Xiaoyu, you are right. There are many ways to repay your kindness. I will not be good to Second Brother Qin. When he dies, I will come back again." Go save him and repay your kindness."

He hurriedly poohed a few more times, and said: "No, no, pretend I didn't say it, Second Brother Qin must be well and don't die... I will work hard to make money, and when I earn enough money, I will give him the money as a life-saving gift." the reward of kindness."

Gu Jinli laughed when he heard that: "Okay, you work hard to make money, and when you save enough ten taels of silver, send it to him and buy out your life-saving grace."

Luo Huiniang: "Ten taels? Is it too little?"

Gu Jinli took her by the hand and walked home: "It's too much, you can only buy a servant for three taels of silver. Our Hui Niang is not a servant, so give him three times more money, he should be smiling."

No matter how much she gave, she was still feeding the wolf, and even ten taels made her feel distressed.

"Where did you two go at night? Hurry up and go back to sleep." Gu Jinan came out to look for someone with a torch, and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw them, and said to Gu Jinli: "If you don't go back, your parents will have to worry again."

Gu Jinli smiled and said: "We'll go back now." He took Luo Huiniang into the house and went to bed.

The next day, several families got up earlier than usual, they got up when it was still dark, went to Qin's house to see Qin Erlang off, and after sending Qin Erlang away, they went home, busy with morning chores.

The third grandma was very reluctant to part with Qin Erlang, she wiped her tears and said: "Let's just leave like this. I heard that Zhongzhou is not as peaceful as ours. Erlang won't encounter any danger when he goes there, right?"

The third grandfather scolded: "You old woman, can't you say something auspicious? What are you talking about?"

After hearing this, the third grandmother hurriedly said a few more words to let God bless Qin Erlang.

After sending Qin Erlang away, Qin Sanlang will also return to the Sibing Station, and he will spend less time at home in the future.

Gu Jinli made a lot of delicious food and asked him to take them to the military station. Qin Sanlang accepted them all, and revealed a message to her: "Uncle Jiang Qi may become a county captain."

Gu Jinli was surprised when he heard that: "What about County Captain Jiang?"

Qin Sanlang said: "The matter of the water bandit case made the people above feel that the official system of the county lieutenant and the county magistrate is very problematic. It is estimated that in the future it will not be like the previous dynasty, and it will be like the county magistrate. Once changed, County Captain Jiang wanted to pass on the position of County Captain to Uncle Jiang Qi before the imperial court was formally restructured. With Uncle Jiang Qi as County Captain, he can continue to protect everyone."

Otherwise, a new county lieutenant, who doesn't know his temperament, will be unfavorable to them and it will be over.

He comforted Gu Jinli again: "Don't worry, County Captain Jiang has already planned this matter. If there is no water bandit case, he will also write a letter to pass the position to Uncle Jiang Qi in a few years, but now it's only a few years in advance. .”

Gu Jinli nodded, "That's fine."

Then he asked about the new county magistrate: "Zou Xiancheng has been arrested, when will the new county magistrate come?"

Qin Sanlang shook his head: "I don't know very well. Now the higher-ups are very cautious about the appointment of the county magistrate. If they don't send someone from the official department again, they will transfer one from several nearby counties. But no matter who comes, they won't If you dare to use power for personal gain again, all eyes will be on you, so you don’t have the guts to do it.”

The matter of Zou Xiancheng has harmed all the county magistrates. The county magistrates in various places in Dachu have scolded Zou Xiancheng to the point of blood, wishing to catch him and cut him to pieces.

After hearing this, Gu Jinli felt relieved, after sending Qin Sanlang away, the family started busy sending Brother Cheng to school.

Gu Jinli doesn't like Mr. Xia, but his family respects Mr. Xia very much.

"Master Juren, it's a blessing for Brother Cheng to be able to teach us Cheng, you must study hard." The third grandfather explained to Brother Cheng.

Brother Cheng smiled and nodded: "Well, Brother Cheng must study hard and not waste the family's money."

Mr. Xia didn't want the Gu family to know his purpose, so he taught Brother Cheng that he had to restrain himself, and the charge was quite expensive, ten taels of silver a year.

Now the life of Gu Jinli's family is going well. Shu Xiu, who is ten taels of silver a year, is nothing to her family, so she readily took it out.

Gu Dashan made a special trip to the county town, bought a bundle of six rituals, and took Cheng Geer, An Geer, and Gu Jinli to Xia's house in the town before dawn the next day.

Brother Cheng carried the small cloth bag made by Gu Jinxiu on his back, put on a new dress, and went to Xia's house in a mule cart.

Surprisingly, when they arrived at Xia's house, they found out that Mrs. Xia had arrived.

Mrs. Xia liked them very much. After seeing the three brothers and sisters, her eyes turned red. She looked at them again and again and asked, "I heard that you have a big sister?"

Gu Jinli nodded: "Yes."

Seeing that she didn't talk much, Mrs. Xia had no choice but to say to herself: "I heard that she is good at embroidery."

Gu Jinli smiled: "Madam knows a lot about my family."

Mrs. Xia smiled gently: "I also heard from Brother An."

Then I asked the maid to bring a booklet and handed it to Gu Jinli: "I have a booklet here, and I want your eldest sister to help you embroider a piece of embroidery according to what is written on it."

Afraid that Gu Jinli would refuse, she added: "I will pay for the embroidery, and I won't let your elder sister's work go to waste."
