I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 60 Killing three birds with one stone

The patriarch and the villagers all stared at the little guy in front of him dumbfounded, and Xia Ying was so frightened that her little heart jumped wildly.

How wise and close to a monster, is this the child you are talking about?

He was only eight years old, yet he was able to calmly say a way to deal with this matter - and this way was indeed much better than what the old patriarch said!
If he followed the patriarch's method, he would not only break up with Lizheng, but also forge troubles with Youyi Furniture.Even if the two parties can't fight because of the size of Gu's Village, it's okay to make a little stumbling block to the people in Gu's Village in the future.

But Gu Yuanlong made such an arrangement...

To throw people directly at the gate of Youyi Furniture Store is to slap shopkeeper Hu in the face severely in public.Shopkeeper Hu watched helplessly as the person he sent out did not say anything, and now he was sent back with a broken leg. This was definitely a great humiliation for him!

But what can he do?In the end, he just knocked his teeth down and swallowed it in his stomach, because he couldn't talk about what he had done!
Then the patriarch turned his head and gave Li Zheng a copy of the confession, which was to use this advantage to seal Li Zheng's mouth.It must be exactly the kind of thing they don't like when they do things like breaking people's legs and dragging them to town and throwing them away.But the patriarch immediately went to Lizheng and said that after they did this, they would cancel the deal with shopkeeper Hu, and the two sides settled!Li Zheng couldn't say anything more.

In addition to this confession... In fact, Lizheng and shopkeeper Hu must not have a perfect cooperative relationship, they are mutually checks and balances.Lizheng holds an extra copy of shopkeeper Hu's crimes in his hand, so it will be easier for him to summon shopkeeper Hu in the future!
Therefore, for the sake of this confession, not only will Lizheng not blame Gu Family Village, but because of the endless benefits he will get from Shopkeeper Hu, he must also help suppress Shopkeeper Hu and not allow him to Then attack the Gu family village.

In this way, they killed three birds with one stone: they avenged themselves, flattered Li Zheng, and made shopkeeper Hu's life less comfortable in the future.A delicate balance has been reached among the three parties, and everyone will no longer have any quarrels because of this matter.

Such a brilliant method, if it was said by an adult, it would be surprising, but it still comes from the mouth of a child who is less than ten years old!
How can this not surprise everyone?

The patriarch was stunned for a long while before he nodded. "You're right, that's what you should do!"

Gu Yuanlong nodded. "Then, the next thing will be left to the second uncle. My parents are back, and we are going home for dinner!"

"Okay, okay, go back quickly!" The patriarch waved his hands blankly.

Gu Yuanlong pulled Gu Tuo on. "Father, you're home."

Xia Ying hurriedly hugged Fu and took Xiao Qi, Gu Yuanhao was still pulling one side of her skirt, the four of them followed Gu Yuanlong, Gu Tuo and his son back home together.

After entering the house, Xia Ying's eyes could not help but wander between Gu Tuo and Gu Yuanlong.

Gu Yuanlong frowned. "What are you looking at?"

"I was thinking, maybe you are not his own?" Xia Ying said.

After all, the IQs of the father and son are so different that it can be said that one is in the sky and the other is in the ground.If these two people are father and son, there are only two possibilities - first, Gu Yuanlong's mother is definitely an extremely intelligent and strange woman; second, there is smoke from the grave of their old Gu family ancestors, and there is still a big puff of smoke !
Gu Yuanlong glared at her directly. "I think you have nothing to do, and you're talking nonsense again! Now that you're back, hurry up and cook, we haven't eaten since last night!"

"Wait a while, I'll change your father's medicine first." Xia Ying said hurriedly.

The expressions of the little guys changed immediately.

"Dad hurt?"

After seeing the bloody scars on Gu Tuo's back, Gu Yuanlong and Gu Yuanhao's face turned livid with anger.

"I'll beat them to death!" Gu Yuanhao was about to rush out, waving his small fists.

It took Xia Ying a lot of effort to drag him back, but Gu Yuanlong also had a cold face. "I knew this earlier, those few were too cheap just now! I should let the second uncle break their two legs!"

"If both legs are broken, it will appear that we are too harsh. It's fine now, let them give them a warning first. They will have a long time to pay off their debts in the future!" Xia Ying sneered.

She went to fetch a basin of water, wiped off the residue of the medicinal juice and the blood that oozed from Gu Tuo's back, and then reapplied the medicine and bandaged him.

During this process, both Gu Yuanlong and Gu Yuanhao came over silently, one helping to change the water and the other picking up medicinal materials. The two brothers cooperated very tacitly.

After tidying up the wound for Gu Tuo, Xia Ying washed her hands again, and she said, "Okay, your father is injured, so you should rest at home for a few days! Now, you and Brother Long are here Looking at Sister Fu, let’s talk about what happened to each other in the past two days, Brother Hao, Xiao Qi and I went to the kitchen to communicate.”

"It's not too late to communicate with each other during dinner later. Now I'll help you too." Gu Yuanlong said.

This little guy actually offered to help in the kitchen?
Xia Ying was taken aback.It should be noted that when she arranged things for the little ones before, Gu Yuanlong insisted that "a gentleman stays away from the kitchen" and refused to agree!So he took the wrong medicine this time?

Facing her surprised gaze, Gu Yuanlong curled his mouth angrily: "Looking at you, I know that you must have suffered a lot outside. If it weren't for the fact that I was so hungry, I wouldn't be here right now. Forcing you to cook—in fact, you also need to eat, don’t you? But you are too tired, you only need to take care of the spoon, and we will do the rest.”

This little guy is feeling sorry for her!
It's just that his temperament is a bit too arrogant, and he expressed his intentions so awkwardly.From now on, his sweetheart will suffer a lot!
But now, Xia Ying felt warm in her heart, she nodded quickly. "Well, I can enjoy the work that Mr. Gu is doing for me today!"

Gu Yuanlong hummed silently, and took the initiative to step into the kitchen.

Xia Ying was indeed extremely tired, but her stomach was also empty and hungry.

So now she kept everything simple, scooped out a large basin of noodles, made a large piece of puff pastry after kneading the noodles, brushed a layer of sweet sauce on top, and fried an egg for the whole family, and added a large Bowl of vegetable soup.Simple and convenient, but exceptionally filling.

When the food was on the table, everyone quickly reached out to grab the pancakes, and then devoured them hungrily.

Xia Ying didn't think about asking Gu Yuanlong until she was full. "It's okay if we don't have the conditions to eat outside. Why are you all so hungry in the village? Could it be that your second uncle and grandpa will lose your food?"

"Hey, Second Uncle Grandpa asked us to eat, but his cooking is too oily, it's not good!" Gu Yuanhao blurted out the truth.

"Gu Changwu's is too vegetarian. It's just boiled vegetables in plain water. It has no taste at all. We can't even eat it."

To put it bluntly, the tongues of these little guys were all taken by her, and now they almost can't eat as long as they taste it!
