Chapter 464

Boss Gu looked down at the younger sister, and when he looked up again, the group of people standing in the distance disappeared.

The coachman's cattle were killed, but he died without a cause. The sad coachman also entered the Fucheng with everyone, and he had no means to go back.

The sky is bright.

The closed city gate was pushed open by the soldiers, and the hungry people who stayed around rushed up, trying to squeeze into the city, but they were stopped by the soldiers standing at the gate with cold weapons.

"From now on, each person who enters the city must pay two taels of entry fee to enter the city. Anyone who violates the rules will be expelled for two miles."

As soon as the words of the soldiers came out, all the hungry people trembled in their hearts. The rich could not wait to take out the money and hand it to the soldiers guarding the door. After confirming that it was correct, they could be put into the city. Among them, he was directly forked out by the soldiers, which was really ruthless.

When Boss Gu saw this, he touched the empty purse on his body, showing embarrassment, he couldn't even find a penny on him.

A few days ago, when I had to go out, I naturally didn't bring a penny with me. Now when it's time to spend the money, I just remembered that I don't have any money.

"Little sister, big brother is too shy..."

Tian Bao looked helplessly at her elder brother with a somewhat shy expression. Perhaps her elder brother would never have imagined that she herself was a walking mountain of gold and silver. It's different now, she originally thought Qiuniang and her daughter were good-natured people.

Looking at it now, it is different. Qiuniang's enthusiasm for her elder brother made her have to be vigilant. Whether it was her thinking too much or planning ahead, she had to guard against it.

"Aunt Qiu, do you have any money? It's okay to borrow money from Tianbao. When I enter the city and find a job, I will return the money to you very quickly! It's true!"

With a begging look on her face, Tianbao looked at Qiuniang expectantly, hoping that the other party would give a response, even if it was only a few perfunctory sentences, it would be good.

As soon as she finished speaking, she clearly saw Qiuniang take a small step back, she was still a weak woman as usual, full of embarrassment, she looked down at her daughter who was snuggling beside her, she was extremely delicate.

"Tianbao, Auntie wants to help you too, but...Auntie's money is just enough for two people..." Qiuniang looked at the two brothers and sisters in front of her in great difficulty, her eyes fixed on the tall body for a long time, In the end, he continued cruelly to the two brothers and sisters: "There is nothing the slave family can do!"

Qiu Niang lowered her head, quickly led Cui Lian'er away from here, and walked quickly towards the city gate.

Cui Lian'er was led away, and she was a little at a loss and turned around to look at the two brothers and sisters who were going away, and then whispered to her mother: "Mother, aren't you rich? Why can't sister Tianbao Come with us?"

Cui Lian'er raised her small face, her eyes were a bit puzzled, she obviously had a lot of money, she had seen it before.

When Qiuniang heard this, her heart trembled. After seeing her daughter's serious eyes, her heart sank, and she lied: "It's okay, Tianbao and the others want to go to the city later, let's go first, your uncle might be waiting for us!"

She hurriedly took her daughter to the city gate to line up, and after paying the money, she entered the city gate smoothly.

Boss Gu was not surprised by Qiuniang's reaction, but he looked at the younger sister with some worry, and looked at the lowered appearance of the other party, thinking that she was sad, so he couldn't help but feel relieved: "Little sister, don't be sad, Brother will quietly take you in at night."

He is very good at lightness kung fu, but there are many hungry people around, so naturally it takes a lot of effort to fly in, and it's not easy for people to see him.

Tian Bao, who counted the money with her head down, looked up at her elder brother in a daze. Don't be sad when she heard something just now?Who is sad?
Tian Bao raised his head, Gu Boss still wanted to say a few words of relief, but after looking at the thick stack of banknotes in the younger sister's hand, he swallowed back the words that hadn't come out of his mouth.

After all, he was thinking too much.

Tianbao managed to dig out four or two pieces of silver from the many banknotes. After a lot of effort, she was sweating a little. After handing over the silver in her hand to her elder brother, the two of them waited for a while before going in.

She didn't want to go into the city with Qiuniang, if they met, she didn't want to see each other.

Although her pancakes were not worth much, in the current predicament, even a tael of silver could not buy any grain, let alone white flour, which was even more difficult to buy.

Speaking of it, her pancakes are also worth tens of taels, not to mention they can still be eaten in the stomach.

Compared with those few taels of silver, there is really nothing comparable.

Fortunately, it was a reason to give the other party a reason to leave.

The scorching sun in the cold winter is not so warm, but when it shines on people, it is still warm.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the two brothers and sisters entered the city gate.

Fucheng is still bustling, people are floating on the street, street vendors are hawking enthusiastically, and beggars are shuttled around the streets and alleys, with tattered bodies and dazed expressions, and it is no longer possible to tell whether they are beggars or homeless hungry people.

The two brothers and sisters walked quickly, passing through the bustling streets, and came to the house they bought before.

The door was locked, and there was dust everywhere in front of the door. With a fingertip, there was a thick pile of dust.

It looks like it has been idle for a long time and no one lives there.

Tian Bao frowned, she clearly remembered that when the mansion returned to the city, there were also a few servants who cleaned the mansion, how could there be such a scene today?

Before he had time to think about it, he saw Boss Gu take out the key from his pocket, open the door, and lead the younger sister straight to each courtyard.

Fortunately, there were still some quilts in the yard, so they released Mrs. Gu and others one by one.

Mr. Gu and the others were still under the drug, and Tian Bao gave them the antidote before turning around and going to the mother's yard.

I am a little worried about how I will justify myself.

Others are okay, but old man Gu is very shrewd. Naturally, such a big clue can't be concealed.

Tianbao came to the outside of her parents' yard, and before she entered, she heard her father's voice.

"Ma'am, it is indeed the meal you served for my husband. It is sweet and delicious, and I slept very well. Look, my surroundings have changed after I woke up! Huh?"

Old Master Gu's rich voice came from inside the house to the outside, and jumped directly into Tian Bao's ears, making her feel a little ashamed, and she didn't dare to move her footsteps.

Ugh.

She lowered her head helplessly, walked into the room, and when she raised her head, she met her ruddy father, who was full of energy, but had no other symptoms of discomfort. A pair of dark eyes were staring at her brightly, which made her a little nervous. do not adapt.

In the next second, those swarthy eyes were filled with tears, big tears slipped from the corners of the eyes, and fell directly into the white skirt.

Mr. Gu never imagined that after he just fell asleep, how could the world be turned upside down after waking up, how could the girl whom he had always held dear in his hand...

He can't believe it!
