Chapter 182

"I don't know." Shen Kuo gnawed on Gu Jiujiu's lips, "The county magistrate has just sent your fifth aunt to prison, and has not yet been tried in court, but your fifth aunt murdered Brother Zhuang with yellow medicine. Life, this crime is not a small one, it is estimated that your fifth aunt will be imprisoned in the prison of the county magistrate for a few years at least."

After listening to Shen Kuo's words, Gu Jiujiu secretly thought that it would be good if brother Zhuang was fine, but if there was something wrong with brother Zhuang, it would be better for her if her fifth aunt had only been imprisoned for a few years.

Shen Kuo looked at Gu Jiujiu's thoughtful appearance, gently rubbed her little head and smiled, "Okay, it's getting late, let's sleep." After speaking, he got up and went to the room The oil lamp was blown out.

The room suddenly became dark, and Gu Jiujiu didn't continue to think about Brother Zhuang. She lay on the bed and pulled the quilt, then closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The next day, when Shen Kuo went to the yamen, Gu Jiujiu's father came over from the old house.

Although Yan Shi didn't like her father-in-law in her heart, he was still Gu Yuanbao's father after all. Seeing Father Gu walk into the courtyard, Yan Shi hurriedly asked him to sit in the main room.

After taking a look at Yan Shi, Father Gu walked slowly to the main room.

After Papa Gu sat down, Yan made a cup of hot tea and put it in front of him, "Father, drink tea."

Old man Gu casually took a sip of the hot tea on the table, seeing a pack of dim sum bought in the market on the table in the main room, he took another piece to eat.

Yan knew that her father-in-law could not just come to sit with her for a while, and he might come here to ask for the tea given to him the day before yesterday.

Sure enough, just as Yan was thinking about it, Father Gu put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Yan and said slowly, "Daughter-in-law, I am eating the tea that Yuan Bao sent you back from Cangyi Kingdom, and I think it tastes good. , it is much more delicious than the crude tea eaten by our farmers, I wonder how many cans of tea do you have left, eldest daughter-in-law?"

"Father, Yuan Bao sent us two tins of tea. We ate one tin and gave you another tin, but now they are gone." If Papa Gu knew about the pot of tea, he would definitely take all of them away.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, is this the one you left behind?" After Yan Shi finished speaking, Old Gu looked at the can of tea leaves on the table in the main room and asked indifferently.

"Not bad." Yan looked at the can of tea in Old Gu's hand and nodded, "We've been eating this tea every day for the past few days, and we've eaten more than half of it."

Old man Gu casually opened the can of tea leaves in his hand and took a look. He found that there were still some tea leaves left in it. He was overjoyed. These tea leaves were enough for him to eat for half a month. He covered the can of tea leaves again. , while looking at Yan Shi said: "Eldest daughter-in-law, I will take the jar of tea leaves you left behind. This tea leaves were sent back from Cangyi Kingdom by Yuan Bao, so I should take them away."

When Yan Shi heard this, her face froze. She knew that her father-in-law was someone who liked to take everything into her hands, but she never thought that the tea they had already eaten would make Father Gu even open his mouth. take away.

Gu Lao didn't wait for Yan Shi to speak, took the tea in his hand, got up and walked out of the main room.
