After being transformed into the cannon fodder of a villain, I counterattacked and became the protag

The door creaked open, and a little head poked out.

"Uncle Village Chief, what do you want from me?" the young man asked timidly.

"I'm not looking for you, this adult is looking for you." The village chief said gently.

Li Shengkai then looked behind the village chief. He saw a thin old man wearing a crimson official robe. He was not tall and he had never seen him before.

Li Shengkai looked at Yang Wanli with a blank expression.

The surrounding houses quietly opened a crack to observe the situation here.

"I have something to ask you. Can I go in and talk?" Yang Wanli said. He still had a very good attitude towards this young man who might be the son of a good friend.

"Oh, okay, sir, please come in."

The door of Li's house was wide open, and when people came in, it was quickly closed again.

In the room, Li Shengkai sat cautiously.

The Li family's mud house looks dilapidated from the outside. Once inside, it feels even more like a dilapidated house. The house is empty, with only a bed and a table.

The village chief originally wanted to help make a cup of tea to entertain the guests, but found that there was no tea at home, so he had to give up.

Yang Wanli waved his hand to signal the village chief to stop working. He was here to find someone, not to drink tea. Moreover, he drank tea at the village chief's house before coming and was not thirsty at all now.

"Shengkai, Mr. Yang has something to ask you. You can answer whatever he asks later. You have to tell the truth, you know?" the village chief said.

Li Shengkai nodded.

The village chief stepped aside and Yang Wanli asked, "Can you tell me about your mother?"

"My mother, she is a gentle woman and she is very kind to me. However, she fell ill a few years ago, and the family had no money to hire a doctor. My mother kept enduring it, and finally she couldn't bear it anymore..." Li Shengkai said At this point, my eyes were red and I couldn't speak any more.

"I heard that you and your mother came from out of town. Do you still remember where you lived before?"

Li Shengkai thought for a while, "I don't know the specific place. I just remember that the place where I lived when I was a child had red walls and blue tiles, with mountains, water, and flowers planted."

After speaking, he looked at Yang Wanli carefully.

After asking some more questions, Li Shengkai's answers made Yang Wanli feel more and more like Li Shengkai was the son of his good friend.

But I also want to check out the other two companies. Although the possibility is unlikely, what if?

Moreover, the "maid" who appeared inexplicably before made him feel like he was being plotted, and he did not dare to draw conclusions easily.

The next one was Liu Dayou's home. A few people came out not long after entering. Liu Dayou and his father were almost carved out of the same mold. To outsiders, they were biological father and son.

Moreover, the Liu family was originally from Qingzhou, but they just moved from one village to another.

Finally, there is Gu Yuncheng's family.

Gu Yuncheng was reading books at home when he heard a knock on the door.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

"Yuncheng, I am your uncle, the village chief. Someone is looking for you?"

village head?

What is he here for?

Gu's mother was cooking in the kitchen. She was about to open the door when she heard the sound. When she saw Gu Yuncheng going out, she turned around and returned to the kitchen.

"Village Chief, what do you want from me?" Gu Yuncheng's face appeared behind the door.

"I'm not looking for you, this adult is looking for you for something." The village chief said.

Gu Yuncheng glanced at Yang Wanli and felt that he looked familiar. He looked at it again and remembered. Isn’t this the examiner of his college examination?

Little did he know that Yang Wanli was also surprised when he saw him. Gu Yuncheng was very similar to his good friend Qi Rong.

Gu Yuncheng opened the door and invited people in respectfully.

"Master Yang, please have tea."

Gu Yuncheng made tea and brought it over, and reluctantly poured a cup for the village chief.

"You know me?" Yang Wanli raised his eyebrows.

"Of course, you are the chief examiner of our college examination. I was lucky enough to meet you when the results were announced." Gu Yuncheng said without saying a word.

"Oh? Did you take part in this college examination?" Yang Wanli was concerned about his studies: "Then how did you do in the examination?"

"The student is not talented, but he got into the exam by luck." Gu Yuncheng said respectfully.

When Yang Wanli heard this, he glanced at the village chief. Didn't he say that this family was a hunter? It seems that the village chief is not telling the truth.

"Isn't your father here?" Yang Wanli asked.

"My father is away all the time, but my mother is at home, boiling water and cooking in the kitchen." Gu Yuncheng said: "Since the teacher is here, it is better to have a simple meal at the student's home before leaving."

"Since you kindly invited me, I will be disrespectful." Yang Wanli did not refuse. He had originally wanted to meet Gu's mother, but the more he looked at her, the more he felt that Gu Yuncheng's features resembled his good friend Qi Rong.

At first glance, there was only a six-point resemblance, but upon closer inspection, there was an eight-point similarity.

Still the same question: "I heard that you and your mother came from out of town, do you still remember where you lived before?"

Gu Yuncheng thought for a while and said, "I lived in Suzhou before, but something happened to my family, so I moved to Qingzhou."

He vaguely remembered moving several times, but the alleys in Suzhou were the places that impressed him the most. At that time, my father and brother were still there, and their family lived together. My mother would pick him and his brother up from school every day.

"Really?" Yang Wanli was a little disappointed when he heard this. Gu Yuncheng was quite popular with him, but he lived in Suzhou before, so it didn't seem to be the case.

Gu's mother also prepared food and brought it over, "Is this Mr. Yang? There is no good food at home, so I asked you to make do with it."

After putting the food away, Mother Gu looked up, her hands trembled and she almost knocked over the food.

"Aunt Gu, please be careful with your men. If this happens to me and my clothes are soiled, can you afford to pay for it?" The village chief took the opportunity to accuse Gu's mother.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Gu's mother apologized quickly.

"It's okay." Yang Wanli said, looking at her one more time.

Gu Yuncheng helped Gu's mother bring out the food and greeted Mr. Yang and the village chief to eat. As for Gu's mother, no one was seen behind them.

Because everything was settled yesterday, with one hand paying the money and the other hand handing over the house, and going to the government office to exchange the deed, Zhang Jinyue went home without stopping.

It was already afternoon when she got home, and the gossip about the Qiu family had changed again.

"Did you know? That boy from the Qiu family is back."

"Qiu Qingquan? Did he pass the exam? Where did he get in the exam?"

"Well, I passed the exam, but my ranking wasn't very high, one hundred and fifty."

"Ah? I thought he got the first place in the exam. Didn't he say that the official came to find him? If the one hundred and fifty are worth looking for, then the first one hundred and forty-nine should also be looked for. How busy is the official?"

"Your gossip is outdated. That official didn't come here because of Qiu Qingquan's knowledge."

"Ah, then why is the official looking for him?"

"I heard it's because Qiu Qingquan is the son of Mr. Guan who was left behind."
