The big man took his brother and disappeared in front of Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng.

The little beggar was beaten very badly. The clothes on his body were torn, old and dirty. Now that he had been beaten so badly, the clothes on his body were torn in many places.

The arms and calves exposed to the air were covered with bruises and abrasions.

But anyone who sees his pitiful appearance will feel very heartbroken.

Although Su Xiaomu was not a very warm-hearted person, he was a little nervous because of his miserable situation in front of him.

Su Xiaomu took out some copper coins from his purse and gave them to the little beggar. Although there were only twenty or thirty coins, it was enough for him to have a full meal today, or go to the fabric store to buy some rags to mend his clothes.

Although Su Xiaomu loved him very much and felt sorry for his ill-fated fate, he definitely had no intention of giving him money.

"Hold this, remember to be smart next time, don't get close to people like just now, you are lucky to meet us today, but if you are unlucky, you will be beaten to death."

Su Xiaomu didn't dislike the dirty little beggar, and gently stuffed all the copper coins into his hand.

The little beggar has grown so big, and has met many different people.

I have also seen many well-dressed people like Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng.

But it was the first time that someone did not dislike him so much, was willing to give him money, and was willing to touch his hand.

He looked at Su Xiaomu very gratefully, then opened his mouth, his voice was a little crying: "Thank you Ma'am..."

"You're welcome, just remember to pay attention to yourself in the future."

Su Xiaomu patted his head caringly, and then left with Gu Ruonan.

Gu Ruonan and Su Xiaomu were walking on the road in the capital, she was not dazzled by the bustling market in the capital that she saw at this time.

Instead, he hurriedly asked Su Xiaomu: "I think the third aunt is like me, and she also has a heart that wants to uphold justice in the world, but why can't I usually feel that the third aunt is such a kind person? The third aunt is like many ordinary people, she only cares about her own family, and occasionally she is willing to give a little bit of kindness to others."

"It's interesting what you said. Who in this world is not like this? How many people can have great love, just like you said, you hope to uphold justice and help others, but if your relatives and a stranger have an accident at the same time, and you There is only one antidote in your hand that can save them, what would you choose?"

The little girl was still a little dazed, or her idea was too idealistic.

Su Xiaomu doesn't mind teaching her a little while taking a walk.

"I will choose to save my family, so if this is the case, can I not be a hero?"

Gu Ruonan became sad: "If you can't be a hero, you have to marry like your sister."

"Why do you reject marriage so much? Marriage is not as scary as you imagined, and being a hero is not as happy as you imagined. This time you stay with me and take a good look at it. What is the difference between those wandering around the rivers and lakes and those you call husbands and children."

Su Xiaomu really wanted to see this little girl, what would she do when she found that there was a huge gap between what she imagined and the reality?

"The capital...is it considered a river or a lake?"

"Where there are people is the rivers and lakes."

After separating from Su Xiaomu, Gu Jingcheng went to Master Wan's residence in the capital.

The county magistrate was with Mr. Wan, and Gu Jingcheng happened to be able to meet the two of them this time.

Master Wan's house is very elegant, and the layout of it can be said to be unique in this capital.

Gu Jingcheng entered the gate, and there was a building not far away.

As he approached slowly, he could hear the melodious sound of silk and bamboo coming from the distance between the terraces, and the echoes of the singing of birds among the lush trees.

Gu Jingcheng could still smell the fragrance of flowers and plants in the air, which made people feel refreshed and happy at this moment.

Walking past the building and walking through a winding path among the flowers and trees, Gu Jingcheng could see the green trees on both sides, the grass under the trees, the wild flowers dotted among them, the dewdrops rolling on the long leaves of the grass, shining in the shadow of the sun. Dazzling light.

Gu Jingcheng had never seen such a house before.

Master Wan drank tea with the county magistrate in the pavilion at the end of the path.

After they saw Gu Jingcheng, they happily asked him to come over, and then asked about other imperial examination matters.

"You really live up to your expectations, and you have lived up to the effort I have put into you. As soon as the good news of your being the No. If we leave Fucheng, we will miss it."

Master Wan looked at Gu Jingcheng with satisfaction in his eyes, and his close disciple really gave him credit.

Master Wan met many friends when he came back this time, but whenever he mentioned that the champion of the new department was his close disciple, everyone's eyes were more or less mixed with envy and jealousy.

Like Master Wan, a great Confucian who has retired a long time ago is lucky to be able to get a top student in a new discipline as a closed disciple.

"It's a bit of a coincidence, but it's natural to go back to congratulate my parents on such a happy event. I haven't thanked my lord for what happened last time. If it wasn't for the letter my lord wrote for me at that time, and the kindness of my wife Zhou Xuan, I am afraid that I would not be able to live here Get out of this incident."

Gu Jingcheng remembered the kindness they gave him, and he would remember those who were kind to him, and he was willing to repay them.

"It's just some trivial matters, why worry about it so much? In the future, the two of us will work together in Beijing, and we will be regarded as colleagues. You don't have to be so estranged. You can call me Uncle He from now on."

The county magistrate was originally named He Shufu.

"From then on, Uncle Lao He will take care of his nephew."

In Fucheng, He Shufu helped Gu Jingcheng a lot, and they were indeed considered as fellow travelers.

"In the future, the two of you will be in the capital together, and you really need to help each other. Today happens to be a meeting. When you go with us in Jingcheng later, it's like getting to know some colleagues in advance."

Master Wan invited Gu Jingcheng to go out together at night, and Gu Jingcheng also knew that the two of them were introducing contacts to him, so naturally he would not refuse such kindness, so he expressed his thanks.

"Yes, thank you Master and Uncle He."

Su Xiaomu sent Gu Ruonan home first, and then went to the shop by himself.

She has a lot of things to do today, and it is inconvenient to walk around with a little girl.

After sending Gu Ruonan to Gu Jingcheng's rented house in the capital, Su Xiaomu went to her Xiyue Pavilion. As soon as he went up to the second floor, Su Xiaomu saw a familiar face, Mrs. Wu Dinghou Lu Nianyou.

"Why is Madam here? If a big client like Madam wants to have a beauty treatment, they can directly ask our people to come to the door. Why do you need to come out in person?"
