"There are so many places to spend money on a daily basis. It's not easy for you to take care of your younger brothers and sisters, so you have to be frugal." Aunt Tao reminded.

Although he said this, he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.

Gu Lingze knew that Aunt Tao meant well, so he nodded and agreed.

She took out the cloth she had bought earlier and asked Aunt Tao to find a few ladies with good craftsmanship to make a few sets of clothes for everyone.

Seeing that he had bought everything, Aunt Tao just said "you kid" and then put the cloth away.

Of course, the things bought for the study were given to Xu Mingyan, and when they were handed to him, Xu Mingyan did not refuse.

In order to pay for his medical treatment in the past few years, his family has become penniless, and he also needs these things. Xu Mingyan just remembers this friendship and the life-saving grace in his heart.

At this time, Xu Mingyan didn't know that Gu Lingze had put three hundred taels in the box. If he knew, he wouldn't know what expression he would have.

Jinzi and Lingzi have been eating and sleeping well these past two days, and their complexions are no longer as pale and skinny as before, like pickled radishes.

They asked Aunt Tao to help boil some hot water for them to take a bath and change into new clothes. Jinzi and Lingzi felt happier than in previous Chinese New Year celebrations.

Finally, after arranging everything he had to buy, Gu Lingze let out a deep breath and felt very happy.

Aunt Tao wanted to pass on the gifts to other people who had also taken care of the three siblings, and went out happily with the gifts.

Uncle Xu went to return the ox cart. Xu Mingyan would take Jinzi to school later. Gu Lingze also asked him to teach Lingzi to read. Xu Mingyan did not have any decadent ideas, so he agreed.

Everyone has something to do, so it's time for me to get busy too.

Taking the medicinal herbs bought in the morning, Gu Lingze left the Xu family, making the excuse that he had to go back to the thatched cottage to pack up.

When there was no one on the road, he put the herbs back into his space and walked towards the back mountain.

He cast a Qingfeng Talisman on himself, and soon he was in front of Shen Si's tomb again.

Taking out the soul gathering talisman buried in the soil, Gu Lingze cast another soul summoning talisman.

After a while, Shen Si appeared. He looked the same when he died and now as a ghost. The blood from his neck kept flowing down, but there was no trace of him on the ground.

Gu Lingze had a rather complicated feeling towards Shen Si, which could be summed up as feeling sorry for his misfortune and angry at his lack of resistance.

In desperation, he chose to commit suicide without thinking that after his death, his two young children would be left alone and how would they survive.

But the situation at that time did not leave Shen Si any choice. If the butcher had not threatened to kill himself that day, he would probably have sold Jinzi and Lingzi.

Now the man and the ghost just stared at each other in silence.

Shen Si didn't know why after his death, the stupid dog in the village was no longer stupid and even had the ability to help him condense his soul.

Gu Lingze didn't have much to say, and summoned Shen Si on the one hand to deal with the butcher.

On the one hand, he is Jin Zi Lingzi's father, and he can't just be a wandering ghost because of this resentment. After he vents his anger, Gu Lingze will help him reincarnate.

Gu Lingze looked at him and said, “Si Shen, just do whatever you want to do.”

Shen Si didn't figure out why Gu Lingze had changed so much, but this was not what he should be thinking about now.

Shen Si bowed to him and floated towards the butcher's house.

After resolving the matter, Gu Lingze returned to Aunt Tao's house. As soon as he entered the door, he saw several people laughing together. Even Xu Mingyan had a look of happiness on his face.

"What happened to you? You're so happy. Tell me about it so I can be happy too." Gu Lingze said with a smile.

Aunt Tao poured him a cup of hot water on the table and told him the story with a smile.

It turns out that the fat grandson of the village head has been wetting the bed whenever he falls asleep these past two days and is particularly sleepy. The yard of the village head's house is now full of quilts and mattresses.

It's early winter weather and the items are thick, so it's not easy to dry them.

So just now, after all the bedding for the whole family was gone, the headman's wife had no choice but to go out and borrow some with a thick face.

The fat grandson of the headman? Gu Lingze remembered that it was the fat boy from that day. This was a lucky coincidence.

When Shen Si died and such a big incident happened, Uncle Xu and his men were going to go to the county to file a complaint.

After the village head learned about this, he gathered all the people in the village together and said something that was half threatening and half intimidating.

The general meaning is that if anyone dares to report to the police, he or she should also consider the consequences.

Although this county magistrate did not desperately squeeze the people's wealth, he was still a man who could only be seen with money.

The word "official" has two mouths, upper and lower. Don't go in if you don't have money.

If you want to go to the county government office to complain, you can, but you must first bring 100 taels of silver. If you don't have it, not only will you not be able to seek justice, you will also be beaten with a stick.

Then he said, now that Shen Si is dead, if the matter is made a big deal, other villages will know about it.

I must drive Jinzi and Lingzi out of the village and let them fend for themselves, and those who are willing to follow me will also leave.

He also repeatedly emphasized that Shen Si died because of these two children.

This set of lies made Aunt Tao and the others who had helped Jinzi Lingzi in the past very angry.

But the village chief was not talking nonsense. At least what the county magistrate said was true.

There was nothing I could do for the moment and I could only think of ways to take care of the two little ones first.

Gu Lingze just heard the whole story and sneered.

"The chief here is really good at confusing right and wrong. Since you are so protective of your brother-in-law, why don't you go and live together in the county jail so that you can keep each other company." Gu Lingze said with a sneer.

Before, Aunt Tao and the others were helpless, but now Gu Lingze is no longer stupid and has great abilities.

They have been carrying this matter in their hearts, and feel more guilty every time they think about it.

Now hearing that Gu Lingze meant to deal with the headman's family, how could he not be happy, but he also reminded him to protect himself first and not to take risks.

Gu Lingze knew that they were concerned about him, so he agreed with a smile.

Gu Lingze asked Jinzi and Lingzi to go out and play first, and he said to the three people: "The butcher's retribution will come tonight, I have asked Shen Si to find him."

I was afraid of scaring them if I said too much, so I just gave a brief explanation.

The three were not afraid after hearing this. After all, as long as they had done nothing wrong, they had nothing to fear from ghosts knocking on their doors.

People in the countryside go to bed early. After dinner, they sit together and chat, then tidy up and get ready for bed.

Butcher Sun Gui had good business today and was a little proud of himself, so he drank a little more wine at dinner.

Looking at the wife he had just married, who was making the bed with her butt sticking out, he suddenly became distracted.

After blowing out the lights, he was getting up and preparing to do something good.

Suddenly I felt something cold dripping on the back of my neck.

He reached out and grabbed the back of his neck twice, but didn't care and prepared to continue.

"Sun Gui, I'm a man of my words. I'm here to find you."

The sound came from above his head, which immediately frightened the things under Sun Gui and made his mind clearer.
