In fact, what Gu Zhong didn't say was that even if Gao Boyi wanted to do something, he couldn't do it blatantly.

People in the imperial capital would not want to see Gao Boyi living a good life here.

So, at least on the surface, they have to farm the land honestly.

As for private...

Gu Zhong thought of some of the things Gao Boyi had ordered before, and his eyes flashed.

If the master wanted to talk, he would have taken the initiative to tell his wife.

He should stop talking.

However, just because Gu Zhong didn't say it didn't mean that Bu Yao couldn't think of it.

She just thought about it after asking.

Gao Boyi's situation is indeed nothing to think about.

At least on the surface.

Bu Yao did not think deeply, but nodded understandingly.

Then he said, "I have heard people say before that the climate in Ningguta is harsh and the living environment is difficult. As the saying goes, a single tree cannot make a forest, but there are advantages to having more people."

"Also, I don't know what my husband has planned. I have some plans myself. After arriving at that place, I planned to do something and need people."

Gu Zhong was even more confused now. He couldn't figure out what Bu Yao could do and what he wanted to do.
He wanted to ask.

But Bu Yao didn't intend to say too much. Before he spoke, he added, "Anyone who is secretive is probably due to lack of confidence or lack of ability. Zhong, let me tell the truth. If it weren't for your brothers, and those secret Wei Zai, I won’t do that.”

Gu Zhong felt Bu Yao's trust from her words.

He straightened his expression and said, "Madam, I understand."

He picked up the bookcase, bent down and picked up two large piles of firewood and put them under his left armpit. He also picked up a large pile in his right hand and turned around to go back.

Bu Yao was not in a hurry to go back, but stayed where she was.

After a while, Gu Zhong came back again, followed by Ning Ning, Liu Yu, He Mo and several female relatives of the Liu family. They all looked surprised when they saw so much firewood on the ground.

"Sister Bu, how come there are so many firewood..." Ning Ning asked with joy.

Liu Yu raised her hand and gently pulled Ning Ning's hand, silently stopping her from speaking.

"Mrs. Gao, thank you." Liu Yu sincerely thanked Bu Yao.

These people, who have the most contact with Bu Yao on weekdays, all see something unusual about Bu Yao, or in other words, know that she has a secret.

However, they also saw that Bu Yao did not intend to hide it completely, but she also did not intend to make it clear.

Everyone is smart, and they all chose to keep it secret tacitly.

Ning Ning was so surprised just now that she almost didn't keep her mouth shut, but now she realized what she was doing.

She quickly followed Liu Yu to thank Bu Yao.

Bu Yao said, "Hurry up and get the things in first. This will save someone else from following you."

After hearing this, several people did not dare to delay any more and started moving firewood one after another.

There were so many people coming back this time, but they all moved away in one visit.

Buyao followed them.

Sure enough, on the way, I met someone who was following me out to look for firewood.

What a coincidence, there are also "old acquaintances" among them - Ning Ning's three aunts.

"Sister-in-law! Look, there is really firewood!" Ningning's second aunt Lu said excitedly, grabbing Meng's arm.

After being exiled for two months, Lu's originally fair skin had darkened a lot, and her originally good appearance had also been worn away, except for her lips, which were still thin when speaking. Yeah, yeah, it makes people feel mean and disgusting just looking at it.

Montessori's body was originally relatively strong, but unfortunately, along the way, he lost a lot of flesh, which made his frame look thicker. His whole body was quite thin, but his thinness made him look extremely ugly.

Meng's eyes were shining brightly, staring straight at the firewood in Ning Ning's hand.

A few steps away from the two of them stood the quiet Ruan family. The other party almost didn't recognize her. Her face was still the same round one, but she was made to look a little buried, like a beggar.

No wonder the other two were so far away from her.

The other party was also looking at the firewood in the hands of Ning Ning and the others. His eyes were not as greedy as Meng's, but rather filled with doubts.

Bu Yao noticed Ruan's subtle reaction and smiled.

Speaking of Ningning's three aunts, this third aunt behaved the quietest. Except for defrauding Ningning people last time and allowing the Ning family to occupy their cart and other packages, she had done almost nothing. Things against them.

She looks more like a little follower of her two sisters-in-law. She does whatever her sisters-in-law do. Occasionally, she will silently obey the instructions given by her sisters-in-law.

Some people may think that this Ruan family is very opinionated and mediocre.

However, Buyao doesn't think so.

She felt that among the three sisters-in-law, Ruan was actually the smartest.

Or, behind the scenes that others don't know, many of the behaviors of Meng and Lu were probably instigated by Ruan.

Of course, besides them, there were others who came, but presumably it was because the men were all shackled and had difficulty moving, so the only ones who came were women and young men.

They are all thin and pitiful, with different looks.

Some are as greedy as the Meng family, some are as calculating as the Lu family, and some are entangled. Some have already moved their eyes away from the firewood and landed on Bu Yao's face, begging silently. .

Bu Yao's face was cold and her eyes were indifferent, as if she didn't care about the group of people in front of her at all.

A woman asked in a low voice, "Where did you find these firewood? We just looked around and found these things, but we didn't see them."

Gu Zhong did not answer her question and said, "We are going over, please give way."

The group of people standing in front of me look at me and I look at you.

Some sighed and wanted to get out of the way, while others were reluctant to move.

Others have a fierce look on their faces, and their attitude of refusal can be described as vividly expressed.

Ning Ning's eldest aunt and second aunt were the last ones with a fierce look on their faces.

"What to give in to?" Mengshi said fiercely with a straight face, "You didn't bring these firewood here. Although you found them, everyone who saw them has a share. Since we all bumped into each other, we have nothing to do with it. Part of it belongs to us!”

Mrs. Lu helped, "That's right. This is the firewood in the ruined temple. It doesn't belong to you alone! If you know what it's like, put it down quickly."

Some of the others wanted to rob someone who was too embarrassed to rob them. When they saw someone stepping forward to take the lead, they immediately started to join in with Lu.

"That's right, this thing is from the ruined temple, and it must belong to everyone. If we didn't see it, forget it. Since we all saw it, we can't let you take it away."

"Yes, yes. They are all exiled prisoners, and they are all people who have been exposed to the rain. They can't be so cruel and don't care about the life and death of others at all!" "That's right! You still have carts here, and everyone has not been arrested. It’s raining! It’s just that we are more comfortable than us on weekdays, but today we have to fight for this firewood, and we are too greedy!”

"Aren't they just greedy? Look at their faces. If we hadn't brought it up just now, they would have regarded this firewood as their own!"

"Stop talking nonsense, put your things down quickly!" Amidst the voices of a group of ladies, a young man fired a gun. He looked 13 years old. He was not very good-looking. His face was very tanned, but his expression was very fierce. , while speaking, he also twirled his sleeves, revealing several whip marks on his arms.

At first glance, the whip marks were caused by Jie Jian.

Bu Yao had seen this young man being beaten before. The way he looked at Jie Chai was like a mouse meeting a cat.

At this moment, it didn't look like a mouse hiding at all, but more like a cat seeing a mouse.

Tsk, at such a young age, you bully the weak and fear the strong.

Bu Yao shook her head secretly and couldn't help but let out a laugh.

The women on the opposite side heard Buyao's laughter and looked over.

Mengshi still remembered Bu Yao's previous hatred of bullying his own son, and took the lead in attacking Bu Yao, "Why are you laughing? Those who hum are humming, those who know are you humming, those who don't know think you are the one in the willow alleys of the flower street... …”

"Bold!"

Before Meng Shi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Zhong's sharp rebuke.

Looking at Gu Zhong's gloomy expression and his imposing aura, Mengshi's heart trembled uncontrollably. He gritted his teeth and swallowed back the rest of his words.

However, swallowing it back means swallowing it back, and it does not prevent others from hearing what she wants to express.

Bu Yao naturally heard it.

She didn't feel angry. Instead, she slowly raised the corners of her lips and raised her hands to applaud.

He looked at her with a smile and said, "Suddenly I felt that being exiled was quite interesting. Otherwise, how could I have the opportunity to see the female family members of the once dignified and polite officials turn out to be so vulgar and foul-mouthed?"

These words were so scolding that he completely lost face to the other party.

Bu Yao obviously didn't name anyone, but everyone knew who she was scolding.

Montessori was so angry that his face turned red.

She breathed heavily, rushed forward, and reached out to grab the firewood in Ning Ning's hand.

Ning Ning was originally shocked and angry because of what Mengshi said about Bu Yao. If Gu Zhong hadn't spoken out faster, she would have rushed forward and covered her mouth.

What she didn't expect was that her eldest aunt would come directly to snatch what she had in hand!
Ning Ning was indeed caught off guard, but she couldn't bear her strength.

Mengshi even grabbed the firewood in her hand and dragged it away.

Ning Ning stretched out one hand to grab it and pulled it in her direction. Mengshi, who had run out for a few steps, was immediately pulled back.

"Auntie, return the firewood to me quickly!"

All Ning Ning wanted was firewood, and while Meng's body was still unstable, she successfully snatched the firewood back, and then quickly moved her body to the side to avoid it.

Liu Yu and others behind her also quickly avoided.

Everyone was extremely agile, and like a disaster-avoiding star, they avoided Montessori's body that turned upside down due to inertia.

This also led to Montessori finally falling heavily to the ground.

"Ouch!" The back of Montessori's head hit the ground, causing her to scream in pain.

"Oh, sister-in-law!"

When Mengshi fell to the ground, Lushi reacted a few beats later, screamed in surprise, and ran over.

Meng sat up with Lu's help, reached out to touch the back of his head, and clearly felt a bulge.

Montessori's whole body is in bad shape.

She turned her head and stared at Ning Ning, with that look as if she wanted to kill her.

Ning Ning grasped the firewood in her hand tightly, lowered her head slightly, and said innocently, "Auntie, it was not me who pushed you down. Why are you staring at me?"

You didn’t push it, you pulled it!

Mengshi was furious, she really didn't expect that just how long ago, that little girl who had been afraid of them since she was a child would dare to treat her like this!
Damn girl, do you think you can ignore them by getting together with Buyao, Gao Boyi and the others? !

Humph, without her family by her side, she wanted to see how the grandparents and grandchildren could survive. When they came to ask for help, she would definitely want them to look good!
Mengshi hopes that day will come soon.

At the same time, he has no intention of letting Ning Ning off the hook for causing him to fall just now!
She gritted her teeth and stood up, stretched out her hand to support her waist, and walked towards Ning Ning with Lu's help.

When Ning Ning saw her approaching her again, she immediately took a few steps back.

"Auntie, these firewood belong to Sister Bu, not the original ones in the ruined temple. You can't be unreasonable, let alone steal it, otherwise what's the difference between you and a robber?"

Mengshi said angrily, "Bad girl, have you forgotten where we are now? We are on the way to exile! We have become exiles, do you still care if we become robbers?"

As she spoke, she turned back and glared at the others angrily, "What are you still doing stupidly? There is so much firewood, if you don't grab it, are you really going to give it to them?"

With this tone, those who didn't know could really misunderstand that the firewood originally belonged to them.

After hearing Meng's words, those people were like enlightened, and they rushed forward to grab it.

They all knew that Ning Ning was very strong. After all, Ning Ning could push a cart with three people on it by herself before.

You might not be able to compete with her.

It is even more impossible for Gu Zhong and the others to rob him. This is Gao Boyi's person. He is a man. Not only is he strong, but the key is that he is skilled in martial arts. There is no way he can rob him.

Bu Yao had nothing on him, and there was nothing to grab.

After such a selection, wouldn't it be that Liu Yu, the Liu family's female family members, and He Mo, who is still a young man, are the most competitive?

Of course, He Mo was still a child, and it was hard for women to rob him. The main reason was that the bully child led other children to rob him.

The group of people robbed him hard, and Bu Yao and the others were naturally not happy to be robbed, so they tried their best to protect the firewood.

Some had no share and couldn't compete with Liu Yu and the others, so they simply went for Gu Zhong and Ning Ning's.

Fortunately for Ning Ning, she is a woman and physical contact with women is nothing.

However, Gu Zhong was concerned that the other party was a weak woman, and he was afraid that he would hurt someone if he really used his strength, so he had many concerns.

For a moment, everything behind was in chaos.

"Why are you making such a fuss!"

At this moment, an angry shout rang out.

Everyone's movements stopped abruptly.

Everyone followed the sound and looked over, only to find Liu Mulin coming over and staring at them with a serious face.
