Chapter 897 Little Gu Xiao looks at the village
"Uncle Fan." Gu Xiao continued, "You said my father has done so many things, why do people still scold him? I say that my father is a murderer without blinking. I think someone outside says bad things about my father, but the people in the village live a very happy life."
"The head of the family is a person who doesn't care about other people's words." Fan Jian said, "Don't care too much, little master."
Although Gu Xiao was only five years old and mentally immature, Fan Jian could see that the child was good at observing details. Some small details at home could not escape the little ghost's eyes. For example, the lock on the warehouse door would be noticed by him as long as it moved a little.
"I'm just very angry." Xiao Gu Xiao said, "My father has allowed so many people to live a good life and allowed so many people to study, but there are still so many people pointing fingers at my father and criticizing my father behind their backs!"
"Little Master, do you know what happened to the head of the family when he was young?" Fan Jian said again, "When the head of the family was criticized by thousands of people when he was young, he could not count the number of times he was impeached! The people in Chang'an were excited and the troubles made the court criticized by thousands of people, but the head of the family still did not kill them."
"Why?" Gu Xiao was curious.
Fan Jian squatted down while tightening his clothes for Gu Xiao, then patted Gu Xiao's heart and said, "Because he has no guilt, no matter how outsiders evaluate or scold him, the head of the family is worthless and unscrupulous, and ashamed of heaven and earth."
"snort!"
Hearing this, Xiao Gu Xiao turned his head proudly, "That guy either fishes or sits at home to read books all day. I won't live like him in the future."
Fan Jian smiled suddenly and walked down the mountain with Xiao Gu Xiao. He could see Xiao Gu Xiao grow up with a very wonderful pride in his heart. He remembered what the head of the family said to him, and you will still have to grow up with my children in the future. Looking at Xiao Gu Xiao's back, you can vaguely see Gu Qing, who was so energetic that he dared to challenge the kings, princes, generals and ministers.
Gu Xiao was walking in the village. Yang Sheng's daughter Yang Xin saw Gu Xiao carrying a stick and said to him in a neat clothes, "Why are you so clean all day long?"
Looking up and down at Yang Xin, who was covered in dust, Gu Xiao said, "Sister Yang, are you going to fight again?"
"Hmph! Only children fight." Ten-year-old Yang Xin raised her chin and said, "I'm a fight. Do you know whether you know the fight?"
Gu Xiaojing said, "Is Sister Yang a child either?"
"You! I'm..." Yang Xin said with a suffocation and then looked like an adult, "I'll know when you grow up."
"Oh." Gu Xiao nodded ignorantly.
After walking around the village, Fan Jian accompanied Gu Xiao to the Hai Trade Department, "My master, do you want to go in and have a look?"
"I won't go anymore. They are so busy, so it's better not to bother them." Gu Xiao said.
"Gu Xiao!" Li Zhi saw this little figure from the Haimai Department Building and greeted him, "Why are you here? Come! Come up and sit down."
Gu Xiao, who was about to leave here, had to walk into it and see that the people here were very busy. Zhao Rui was thinking about how to deal with the candidates for the Hai Trade. He was hesitant. Seeing Fan Jian from Gu Qing's family coming with a child, he didn't care much about doing his own thing.
Walking to the second floor, Gu Xiao saluted Li Zhi, "Uncle King of Jin."
"Sit down."
Fan Jian knew that Li Zhi had always been very good to Gu Xiao. Gu Qing watched Li Zhi grow up, while Li Zhi watched Gu Xiao grow up, and he treated Gu Xiao and Li Zhi as if he was his younger brother.
"Why did you come to my place today? Your father didn't ask you to do the test?" Li Zhi brought Gu Xiao a candy and fried chestnut, "Eat it, this is made by my brother Wei himself, and the taste is a bit different from yours."
"Yes." Gu Xiao obediently ate the candy fried chestnuts, "Uncle King of Jin is so busy here, I was afraid of disturbing me."
"If you don't disturb me, you won't be too busy with me." Li Zhi said with a smile, "You sit here for a while, and I'll go and ask my subordinates to do their business first."
After Li Zhi left, Gu Xiao jumped out of the chair and said to Fan Jian, "Uncle Fan, let's go back."
"Yes." Fan Jian nodded.
Gu Xiao left the Haimao and walked home all the way. Gu Qing was talking to Zhang Yugong and saw his son coming back and saying, "Come here."
"Oh." Gu Xiao was a little reluctant.
Gu Qing spoke to his son and said, "This person is called Zhang Yugong. From now on, he will be your guard. He can also teach some self-defense skills. Are you willing to learn it?"
"Uh..." Gu Xiao hesitated a little, remembering the dirty look of Sister Yang just now, learning martial arts? Gu Xiao was still a little disgusted, "Father, the child's question has not been finished yet."
After saying that, Gu Xiao walked back home, as if hiding. Fan Jian replied, "The little master went to the Hai Trade Department to take a look, then he came back after a look."
Gu Qing nodded slightly and said to Zhang Yugong, "I will leave my child's safety to you in the future."
"Don't worry, lord!" Zhang Yugong knelt on one knee and said loudly.
"You don't have to do this." Gu Qing helped him up and continued, "You will live in the village from now on. You don't have to work too hard to protect Gu Xiao. And your brothers will be the escorts in the village in the future. I will discuss with that person so that he can allow me to form my own escorts in the village."
"Thank you lord!" Zhang Yugong knelt on one knee again.
"Why are you kneeling down again? Get up quickly?" Gu Qing helped him up again.
Becoming a guard in the village means that you don’t have to do things in the dark in the future. Many things are shameful. Zhang Yugong has been doing those dirty and tiring work with his brothers for so many years. I am really afraid that sometimes I will not be able to hold on. I heard Gu Qing say that he can become a guard in the village means that he and his brothers can see the light of day again and walk in the sun.
After so many years, Zhang Yugong never thought that he could have this day. He thought that he might live incognito in the future, and perhaps he would hide for the rest of his life. Zhang Yugong was excited about the ending of this moment and was relieved at once! From then on, he could also be an ordinary person.
"I will give you and your brothers a place in the village." Gu Qing said to Zhang Yugong, "The village is so big and there is always someone to take care of. In addition to believing that I can't find anyone else, I will also give you wages."
"Thank you lord." Zhang Yugong's words were a little choked.
