Chapter 331 Search
Gu Chengyu has a headache, let's do this!In fact, the person in charge is considered innocent, but who told him to take care of everything on the ship?If they got off the boat, where would they go to get the money back from the owner of the boat?Therefore, pestering the steward is also normal.

Sun Xian and Ye Zhiqiu didn't want to talk about it either, but it was impossible to ignore them, the boat passengers had already surrounded them.

"Everyone! Please listen to the next sentence!" Among them, Sun Xian is the oldest, and he is quite smooth in life.So when he saw Gu Chengyu staring at the sky speechlessly, he could only stand up.It would definitely not work to count on Ye Zhiqiu. Ye Zhiqiu is so shy, how could he mediate?
Sun Xian analyzed the current situation and asked the steward to promise to return everyone's money when they arrive at Jingyuan Mansion.As for compensation for the loss, forget it!After all, no one was injured. In fact, he was embarrassed to say that those who hid in the house and refused to come out screamed the loudest.

If you are in danger, you will hide, and if you have money, you will jump out and provoke everyone to make trouble.

For those who are injured, let the steward go to the town to ask the doctor to take a look.In addition, send a letter to the host family as soon as possible, and ask the host family to take out the money for the compensation.The boat will stay here for a few more days. Although the deceased were taken away by the government office, their family members have to be notified to collect the corpses and get the money for compensation by the way.

Finally, those who want to get off the boat here, wait for the owner of the boat to send the silver, and then come to get it, anyway, the boat will not leave.After a lot of talking, everyone gradually calmed down.

Even Gu Chengyu gave Sun Xian a thumbs up quietly, and Sun Xian couldn't laugh or cry.In fact, Gu Chengyu just didn't care about it, he found it annoying.

In front of everyone, Gu Chengyu took out 300 taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to the steward.

"This time we encountered Jiang bandits, and those who sacrificed are worthy of our admiration. For the money here, please give some of the money to their families, it can be regarded as a meager effort."

Seeing this, the steward was also a little moved. Gu Chengyu is a master of Juren, but he is different from them.To be able to take out 300 taels of silver to support family members is also a person of high moral character.

"Gu Juren is righteous, I thank Gu Juren on their behalf."

Don't underestimate the 300 taels. Take the boatman as an example, it's only about two taels of silver a month.Each of these dead boatmen can pay about 20 taels of silver, which is the kindness of the master.If the master is mean, it is very common to only give a dozen or so.

After all, being a boatman is a dangerous job, and it was agreed before boarding the boat.This work is very tiring, and he has to be a thug at the same time, and the risks on the river are also unpredictable.It wasn't the boatman's fault that he encountered Jiang Bandits. According to the previous Chang Gong's contract, if he could give 20 taels, it would be the best.

Why are there so many people doing such a dangerous job?There is so much silver in the moon!Going to the wharf to fight against the package, you can only get a dozen yuan a day, and only three or four hundred yuan a month. This is still the case when there is work every day.Although the boat is dangerous, the two taels of silver every month is really tempting!

In the past, the ships would deal with Jiang bandits, so the danger was actually not that great.This time, after all, it was an accident.

Although the person in charge was envious of the 300 taels of silver, he knew that the money must not be taken.Many people on the boat saw it, and he couldn't swallow it even if he wanted to.Besides, he didn't want to do this either, it would really be a thunderbolt if he took the money.

"As expected of Juren! It's 300 taels for every shot!" Some people looked jealous, but they just talked about it, they just envied Master Juren for having money!
"Would Master Juren have no money? You can tell by his clothes that he has money! He must be the son of a rich family!"

Yao Mengxian was sitting by the bed doing embroidery work, she just ordered two guards to take Gao Mama out to buy some things, and she invited a doctor to come and see Lian Xin and Uncle Li.It's just that it's noisy outside right now, and I don't know what happened?

"Girl! Don't embroider, do embroidery work on the boat to save your eyes!" Lian Xin came in with a tray, which contained the rice porridge made by Gao Mama in the morning, some side dishes, a plate of steamed stuffed buns, a plate of snacks,

"Lian Xin? Why are you up? Didn't you tell you to rest on the boat for a few days?" Yao Mengxian frowned. Lian Xin was kicked in the heart by Jiang Bandit before, and she didn't know if she was injured internally.

"My servant feels very energetic and has strength all over her body. Engong's pills are really extraordinary, so why do you need to invite a doctor? It's fine to lie on the bed." Lian Xin put the breakfast in her hand on the table one by one. Put it right, in the words, there is admiration for Gu Chengyu.

Lian Xin had heard from Mama Gao about the previous incident, and after knowing that Gu Chengyu had killed the Jiang bandit and saved her girl, she felt very benevolent and brave.Especially after knowing that Gu Chengyu is still Jieyuan in this year's township examination, I admire him even more.

"Be careful when you're injured! Since you can't lie down on the bed, you can just come down and take a walk. You don't have to come to serve so early." Yao Mengxian said with a smile.

Qingdai on the side watched the interaction between the master and servant, and bit her lip.Since that day, the girl has treated her worse than before.

In the past, she was often asked to inquire about news, but now she is only asked to serve by her side, and she is not easily allowed to go out.It's normal to serve only close, after all, Lian Xin was injured, she is the only girl here.However, she always felt that the girl seemed to be very cold towards her. Although she was smiling, she didn't smile so warmly towards Lian Xin.

"Didn't Madam Gao come back? When the servants came over from there, I heard that they are not allowed to go out at the moment." Lian Xin didn't see Mama Gao in the room, and felt a little strange.

"What's going on?" Yao Mengxian asked suspiciously after hearing the words.

"The servants don't know either, maybe it's related to the Jiang bandits on the original boat." Lian Xin shook her head, went forward to clean up the sewing basket, fetched water for the master to wash her hands, and prepared to eat.

Yao Mengxian thought about it carefully, and then she felt relieved.It may be that Jiang Bandit's matter is too big, and these low-level officials can't make decisions when they report it.Maybe I have to check on the ship, and I can't go out, it's just temporary.

Gao Mama hurried into the house, "Girl! Those officials want to come in and search, what should I do?"

At this time, there was already a knock on the door outside, and it was not far from here.

Upon hearing this, Yao Mengxian turned around and found a post from the cage she was carrying.

"Mother Gao shows them father's post, and they will know." No matter how she is the legitimate daughter of the Duke's mansion, how can those officials enter her house?

"Hey! I'm going now, old slave!" Uncle Li's leg was hurt and it was difficult for him to walk, so she could only do it.

Gu Chengyu asked Mingmo and the others to pack the boxes and packages, and prepare to leave early.

"My lord, do you want to read this post?" An official sent the post to Mr. Tian, ​​and after taking a look at it, Mr. Tian was overwhelmed with surprise. Didn't expect there were family members of the Duke's Mansion on board?

 Thank you Dream Chaser for your reward!There will be a blast tonight!
