Rudonghai

Chapter 157 Arrest
If the tenants were changed in this way, who knows where there are such good farmers, it might affect Gu's income.

Especially these days, Gu Yunyan's extravagant spending has made Gu's family unable to make ends meet in a blink of an eye. Fortunately, the land rent can be collected in time, so it can be slowed down.

If this goes on like this, how can the Gu family hold on?
The lady in charge is worried, Mrs. Gu doesn't care about things now, Mr. Gu never cares about it, and the young mistress also avoids it. She is really in trouble.

Gu Yunyan was upset, and gave Qingya a wink. The latter understood, and scolded: "It's just one or two disobedient tenants. If you drive them out, how can the others show embarrassment to the Gu family? Since you don't want to stay Now, just drive them all away, I don’t believe it, there are no other good farmers to be tenants, I think they are a few pounds and a few taels, and they want to threaten the second girl? The lady in charge is also, is she from the Gu family? My heart is biased towards outsiders, so it’s not because I’ve received some benefits from them, right?”

The woman in charge blushed when she heard this, and felt humiliated: "What nonsense, the two tenants are only suspended for a month, and they didn't say that they would not pay the land rent. It's just that the child in the family is very ill, so they are kicked out like this. Or they will be imprisoned in the prison of the government government. If the illness is delayed, I am afraid that they will die. Second girl, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda..."

"Okay, if you want to be a good person, then go for it. It's just that the Gu family can't keep you as a good person, please go ahead." Gu Yunyan interrupted her impatiently, she didn't like to listen to the management at all. The lady preached.

This is Gu's mansion, her home, she can do whatever she wants, where does she need a servant to point and teach others how to do it?
The lady in charge's face was gloomy, she never thought that after working hard for the Gu family for more than ten years, she would be kicked out by the master's family in the end, without thinking about the old relationship.

The most important thing is that if Gu Yunyan insists on going her own way, she may really anger the tenants and even cause death.

She had been favored by Mrs. Gu before, so she gritted her teeth and went to Zhen Guohou's mansion after she left the mansion.

The third girl is reasonable, after hearing this, she might be able to dissuade the second girl.

Gu Yunxiao didn't expect that the lady in charge of the Gu family would beg to come to him, so she fell silent and didn't speak for a long time.

The lady in charge suddenly became uneasy, thinking how reckless she was.

It's not that she doesn't know that the third girl of the Gu family is not favored in the mansion, and her daily life is not as good as that of Gu Yunyan.

Now that Gu Yunxiao had a falling out with Gu's mansion, and was taken to Zhen Guohou's mansion, life was so pleasant, so naturally he didn't want to get involved in the mess of Gu's mansion.

It's just that no matter what, the lady in charge always wants to try, it's better than giving up, she will have a bad conscience for the rest of her life.

"You said that my sister wants to drive away the tenants, so what do you want me to do? I have already left Gu's house, and my father probably won't want me to go back and meddle in Gu's family affairs. Madam in charge, you are begging the wrong person, how about Go back and ask your father, maybe he will persuade your sister."

What Gu Yunxiao said would make the lady in charge suffer. If Master Gu would dissuade Gu Yunyan, why would she have the audacity to come to Zhen Guohou's mansion?
"These tenants have worked hard in farming, and their income has doubled in the past ten years. There is no credit but hard work. Now the children of the two families are sick and cannot pay the land rent for the time being. The second girl sent them to the government office. The two children I'm afraid I won't be able to endure it." The words of the lady in charge are very clear, if someone dies, the Gu family may have to bear the responsibility, which is not good for Gu Yunxiao who is about to get married.

Gu Yunxiao couldn't write two Gu characters in one stroke, and Gu Yunxiao stood by, and he would be implicated in the end.

Gu Yunxiao raised his eyebrows, shook his head and said: "If I make a move, I'm afraid my sister will not only not restrain herself, but will intensify it, and harm those tenants."

Gu Yunyan saw that she was not pleasing to the eye, and wished to tear herself apart.If Gu Yunxiao helped those tenants, I'm afraid their fate would only be worse.

The lady in charge didn't know where, she was frowning, and she was helpless.

"Well, I was about to buy land, but I was watching alone. If you are willing to sign a contract and stay by my side to help, you will take over all the tenants who were driven out and send them to the new land to cultivate. It's just Whether they are willing to come or not depends on your skillful words, whether you can persuade these tenants." Gu Yunxiao thought that he had the bank note that Xiao Xilin sent before, and it was enough to buy a large piece of land .

It's just that this matter should be mentioned to Xiao Xilin, after all, it was bought with his money, and the owner of the land should be Master Taifu, and it has nothing to do with her.

The lady in charge hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "I am so appreciated by the girl, the servant is willing to stay. Back then, she received the favor from Mrs. Gu, and she only said that she would stay to repay the Gu family. Now following the girl is not a violation of the original principle." oath."

Back then, it was said that it was to repay, and it was also to do things for the Gu family.Gu Yunxiao's surname is also Gu, so it's naturally not a backlash.

There are too few people around Gu Yunxiao who can be used. The lady in charge is a savvy woman, and it is rare that she is kind-hearted and still retains the heart of a child.

Such a person can be kept and used, and there is no need to worry about stabbing a knife in the back.

The deed of sale in Zhen Guohou's mansion was ready-made, Gu Yunxiao changed it a little, and the lady in charge stamped her handprint without hesitation, and immediately went to discuss with the tenant.

Those tenants had been warned by the people sent by the Gu family, and they were very angry.Many people have already prepared their burdens and planned to leave the Gu family's land.

If he didn't leave, he might be kicked out by the Gu family like a bereaved dog.

The two families who did not pay the land rent felt guilty and apologized to the others repeatedly.

When the lady in charge arrived, everyone was packing up the ox cart, piled up all the valuables, and planned to leave with the whole family.

She said what she wanted to do, and the tenant nodded after discussing for a while.Rather than being chased and killed by the Gu family, it would be better to follow the new master.

They don't know what kind of person Gu Yunxiao is, but everyone has dealt with the lady in charge for several years, and they know her character well.

Since the lady in charge is already Gu Yunxiao's close friend, naturally this master is trustworthy.

When Gu Yunyan thought about it and sent someone to arrest the two families who did not call Shang Tianzu and send them to the government office, she found that they had gone to Loukong, and she was very angry.Especially when I heard that Gu Yunxiao and the lady in charge jointly took him away, I hated him even more.

"Qingya went to the government office and said that Gu Yunxiao had cheated all the tenants away and owed the land rent. She has no land to cultivate at all, and it is likely that she sold the tenants without authorization."

Gu Yunyan bit her nails and sneered.

Except for the official Yazi, everyone in the Qing Dynasty who secretly trafficked people would be arrested and arrested.

Qing Ya was terrified when she heard this, and knew in her heart that if she went to the government office to file a complaint, even with the protection of Zhen Guohou and Xiao Taifu, Gu Yunxiao might not be able to escape: "Miss, will it make people feel that you are not close?" Favor?"

Even her own sister can kill someone with the knife of the government, I'm afraid that Gu Yunyan's reputation of being cruel and merciless will not be able to escape.

"I'm killing my relatives righteously. Do I just want to watch the third girl go astray?" She eased her brows and comforted the panic-stricken maid and said, "Don't worry, with Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Zhen Guohou here, who would dare to let her go astray?" Sister suffers the crime of Ling Chi? I'm afraid it's just a beating and suffering."

Hearing this, Qing Ya breathed a sigh of relief, thinking of Mrs. Zhen Guohou's joy for Gu Yunxiao, she was afraid that she would have to be careful about everything she said: "The servants will go to the government office now, but those tenants, let them leave like this ?"

The crops on the land were not yet ripe, and people ran away. There was no one to take care of them for a few days, and they were afraid they would die.Not to mention the cost of the seeds, even if it is re-sowed, it may be too late for this season, and it will be wasted in vain, and Qingya feels distressed when she looks at it.

"Invite someone over, are there only those who know how to serve the land?" Gu Yunyan snorted coldly, directly using the grapes, ignoring those tenants at all.

Qing Ya responded, and left the mansion wrapped in a cloak.It's just that she didn't rush to the government office immediately, but went to the backyard of an inn. In the alley, she met a woman who was also tightly wrapped in a cloak, and stuffed a medicine bag.

She trembled and almost dropped the medicine bag on the ground. The other party sneered and said, "Why, are you starting to be afraid now? You are so loyal to your girl that you don't even care about your own brother's life?"

Qing Ya hurriedly said: "I have already promised, please don't hurt my brother."

"Don't worry, if you do your job well, that boy won't die. But it's not my master who protects you. Your brother has already died hundreds of times. Even daring to touch a local snake's woman is simply asking for death." The man said coldly. With a cold smile, he turned around and left, too lazy to talk to Qing Ya.

Anyway, if it is done properly, that kid can live a few more days, otherwise he owes favors in vain, who will clean up the mess for him?
Qing Ya clenched the medicine bag tightly, and was so frightened that she almost jumped up, and quickly hid herself next to her body.

She saw that there was no one else around, and then sneaked straight to the government office through the corner door in the backyard.

Hearing this, the government officials looked at each other, finally gritted their teeth, and came to the Zhenguohou's mansion. They bowed their hands politely to the ugly Zhenguohou's mansion and said: "It's the duty, please forgive me, Lord Hou."

Mrs. Zhen Guohou sneered: "When did my nephew and daughter-in-law commit a crime and let the adults catch her and bring her to the Hou's mansion?"

Fu Yin had a bitter face, but with so many tenants being taken away, and how many eyes were staring at him, he couldn't help but ask, at least he also explained to the outside world: "Madam, please calm down, the humble minister came to the door, and I am also willing to give Gu San Miss Still a clean one."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhen Guohou snorted coldly and said: "Third girl is obviously innocent, you are chasing rumors and making trouble at the door, and those who don't know think that San girl has committed something, how can you go out to meet people in the future?"

"Yeah, I want to ask, what happened to my wife who hasn't been married yet?" Xiao Xilin, dressed in a black brocade robe, walked in slowly from the door.
