Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

Ziluo remained silent with a pale face, Gu Jingyun looked at her indifferently, his eyes gradually became sharper, the coercion was pressing on her like a boulder, Ziluo's face was pale, and she prostrated herself on the ground.

Even the purple shirt on the side was crushed and knelt on the ground with a "plop". She said in a trembling voice: "This, this is all passed down to the world in private. When the servants saw that Mrs. Biao disappeared suddenly, they were fascinated for a while. That's why I thought Mrs. Biao was taken away by demons and goblins."

"Then what rumors do you have privately?"

Zishan hesitated, she seemed to take a look at Ziluo, but she didn't dare to turn her eyes under the watchful eyes of Mr. Biao, and finally she could only say helplessly: "Some people say that the main house has been built for more than 800 years, I don't know how to send it here. No matter how many masters go, there are always those who are unwilling to reincarnate. In the past, there were people living in the main house, and guests came and went, full of yang energy. Even if they were unwilling, those grieving ghosts did not dare to make trouble. But now the main house has been abandoned for many years. The fifth master and the fifth grandma also only dare to live in the southwest corner adjacent to the outside world."

Zi Shan said with a trembling voice: "Before, the maidservant was cutting the lanterns. When she took the scissors, Mrs. Biao was obviously still sitting on the soft couch, and Zi Luo was picking up snacks in the small kitchen. The door of the kitchen is facing this way. If someone goes out She must have seen it. But just a short while after I was cutting the lanterns, Mrs. Kung Fu Watch disappeared, and Ziluo said that she didn't see anyone going out, and when she entered, she only felt a gust of wind blowing over her face."

Touching her tears, she said, "The wind only blows in from the outside of the door, how can it blow from the inside? And Biao's wife's shoes are still on the ground, so, that's why we mistakenly thought that Biao's wife was taken away."

Gu Jingyun looked down at the embroidered shoes on the ground, Li Baolu shrank her feet and hid her dirty little feet under her skirt, as if the person who ran out with bare feet was not her.

Seeing that Zi Shan had said everything, Ziluo continued, "The servants made a fuss about this, which frightened Biao Gongzi and Biao wife, and the slaves are willing to accept the punishment."

Zishan pouted, why are they scary? Obviously Mrs. Biao was scaring them, but when did Mrs. Biao run out? Why didn't she and Ziluo notice it?

"Is the rumor of the resentful ghost only spread among the servants of your Second Household, or is it spread among the servants of the entire Qin Family Village?"

Ziluo couldn't help clenching her fists, she shook her lips, and under Gu Jingyun's gaze, she still couldn't help lowering her head and said: "The whole Qin Family Village is spreading the word."

"Did no one pass it to the master's ears?"

Zishan also felt that something was wrong, she shrank her neck and dared not speak.

Seeing that Ziluo's face was pale and crumbling, Li Baolu coughed lightly and asked softly, "Will someone be punished for spreading these rumors?"

"Yes," Ziluo said in a low voice, "every house has servants who have been punished, and even the second house has been attacked several times. Although the rumors have been suppressed a bit, everyone will still spread them in private. When the weather is cloudy and rainy, everyone always feels that the main house is gloomy, as if someone is crying inside. That's why the patriarch decided to open up the big garden, let the people of Qinjia Village go to play, increase some yang energy, and keep those ghosts from coming out Scary."

Gu Jingyun said meaningfully: "As long as the yang energy is enough?"

Ziluo and Zishan nodded repeatedly, and said: "Yes, as long as there is enough yang energy, it is said that ghosts are most afraid of people's yang energy, and they dare not appear in places with many people."

Gu Jingyun got up, flicked his robe with some disappointment, and said, "You're having fun, I'm going to the study."

Li Baolu waved to him, "Goodbye!"

Gu Jingyun ignored her and left.

Ziluo and Zishan were dumbfounded, not knowing what the words Mrs. Biao meant with this action, Li Baolu didn't explain, but jumped off the soft couch and helped them up, "Get up quickly, don't you just run out for a while Well, it scares you."

Ziluo lowered her head and did not speak. Compared to being afraid of ghosts, she was more afraid of Biaogong, because ghosts might not kill her, but if they offended Biaogong, thinking of Biaogong's indifferent gaze just now, Ziluo I couldn't help but shudder.

Zishan was also afraid of Gu Jingyun, but she was more nervous. Seeing that Gu Jingyun was gone and Li Baolu had a gentle personality, she quickly recovered. As soon as she recovered, she saw Li Baolu's bare feet. She said "Oh" and hurriedly pushed Li Baolu onto the couch, "Mrs. Cousin, how can you walk on the ground with bare feet? It's winter now."

Ziluo also quickly came back to her senses, turned around and ran out, "My servant is going to fetch hot water to wash your feet."

The two girls circled around Li Baolu, while in the study, Gu Jingyun was sizing up Mo Wang and Qin Bin.

When they saw Gu Jingyun enter the door, they both knelt on the ground, and they didn't get up until Gu Jingyun sat down in the upper seat and called them.

"Before I came, my uncle gave me a list of people who intended to return back then, and your two names were in it. It's just that I have been in Qinjia Village for a while, and I even publicized my uncle's redress. Come on, you didn't come to the door until today, I thought you didn't want to come back. After all, being a slave is not as good as being a good citizen."

The two of them immediately knelt down again, pleading guilty and explaining: "The servant wanted to come to visit the young master on the day he entered the village, but every intersection in the village was guarded, so it was impossible to go to the main house. There are also people following, so..."

Gu Jingyun asked indifferently, "So the people from the Qin family stopped you from seeing me?"

Qin Bin said: "Not all of them, most of them were done by people who used to run the fields and shops. The rest of the people were either out of respect or didn't want to go into this muddy water so they turned a blind eye."

"Then how did you come to the main house today?"

"The little one heard that the patriarch was going to call everyone to discuss the candidate for the successor. Everyone's attention was diverted, and the inspection of passing people and vehicles was not so strict. The little one and Mo Wang bought a vegetable delivery to the second room. The same clan, secretly hid in the vegetable basket and sneaked in."

Qin Bin is not a slave, but a member of the Qin clan, but he is a side branch, and his life is very poor. I don't know why. His family's descendants are obviously very prosperous, and they don't have bad habits. . The land left by his ancestors was all spent in his father's generation. There was no other way. The family could only rent out the land for farming.

But life is difficult when they have fields and land, let alone when they have no fields.

Fortunately, ethnology is free for the clansmen. Although you need to buy books, paper, ink, pens and inkstones yourself, at least you don’t need to study, and even include daily lunch.

If the grades are good, you can get the top ranking and bonus in each final exam.

And a poor family like Qin Bin will subsidize some every year. He relied on these subsidies and people to buy second-hand enlightenment books to study ethnology.

Apart from having more fields, the Qin family has more books. Almost every household has enlightenment books. It is easy to buy a second-hand set of enlightenment books.

And Qin Bin is still very hardworking and clever. When he was in school, he would secretly help rich classmates who didn't like studying with their homework in exchange for some pocket money.

It's a pity that the further you go, the more money you spend on studying. After studying for four years, he has read all the characters and learned some practical arithmetic, so he doesn't go to school.

The direct branch is different from the collateral branch.

The descendants of the side branches are abundant, and it is not enough to hand over the property of the family to the children and grandchildren of the family, so how can they use the same clan?

But the direct line has been passed down for several generations, and the huge family business is supported by only one person. Although the servants are useful, there are some businesses and things that the servants are not easy to come forward to, so they are needed.

Many descendants from poor families like him love to go to the direct branch to find jobs. If they do well, the direct branch will release some property to them when they are old, which is a reward for their hard work over the years.

Qin Bin ran for these things.

The Qin clan is indeed a prominent family in Runing, but there are also poor people among the prominent clans. The situation of the second bedroom has improved when the second wife's wife Jiang married in, so she never takes these poor Qin clan members seriously.

But she didn't know that the most well-informed were these Ming masters, who were of good status but poor and had to rely on their fellow clansmen who delivered food, game, and planted trees and flowers to each house.

Qin Bin learned from these fellow clansmen that the clan was going to discuss which stepson to choose for the first line, and even bribed the clan brother Qin Laizi who delivered food to the second room, and sneaked in.

Qin Bin glanced at Gu Jingyun carefully, and said in a low voice: "I heard that the clan elders plan to select ten children under the age of ten, and send them to the capital after the spring. School them, if they are satisfied, they can adopt after a year or two."

Gu Jingyun said meaningfully: "You are well informed."

Qin Bin said: "Because the adoption of the first line is a major event, it is not the second family or which family can have the final say, so all clan members with school-age children have been notified, and it is not difficult to find out the news."

Gu Jingyun nodded lightly, and asked, "Then you have made up your mind to come to me?"

Gu Jingyun looked at them and said: "You should know that betrayal is the most unacceptable thing in the direct branch, and my uncle will not return to Runing in a short time, you can only fight against these people in Runing by yourself. I don't need to repeat how difficult it is Well, let me just say one thing, after the property is in your hands, I can’t help you. If you lose money, you know the rules of my direct branch. If you make money,” Gu Jingyun stared at them and said, “I can’t give you any other promises. Qin Bin, when you are old and old, I can give you an estate, or let your grandson study in Beijing. Don’t forget, it’s impossible for you to sign a sell-off contract to redeem yourself, but I can also promise to give you Your grandson has a chance, if they really have the ability to pass the imperial examination, I don’t mind helping the leader, but if they don’t have the ability, I can also give him a piece of property.”

Qin Bin and Mo Wang's eyes were shining brightly, and they knelt down on the ground excitedly and said, "I am willing to serve the master, and I am willing to die for the son!"

They came here at the risk, firstly because of love, and secondly because of the direct branch's emphasis on love, righteousness and generous rewards?

But they didn't expect Mr. Biao to be so generous, and he promised to give their grandson a career in the sky. If their grandson can really pass the Juren examination, then wouldn't their family also be able to change their families and honor their ancestors?

Especially Mo Wang, he was so excited that he almost shed tears. He is a servant of the world, counting up to seven generations. If his grandson can really become an official...
