Chapter 726728. Fun
He had read in biographies before that all the bandits were extremely vicious and not only robbed people of their belongings, but also took their lives.
But these people in front of him were even worse than the beggars in the capital.
Not only are their clothes full of patches, but they are also skinny and bony. Look at what's on the soles of their feet, they must be shoes woven out of straw.
They dare to call themselves bandits. Are they sure they can steal things this way?
Gu Benluo's gaze was too scorching, making Boss Yu and the others feel a little uncomfortable.
"Is there something you forgot to bring from the village? If you're not in a hurry, we can bring it to you when we come here to sell goods tomorrow." Boss Yu tried to keep his tone as steady as possible.
If it had been the day before, he might not have had the courage to face so many noble people.
"No," Gu Lehuan seldom communicated with Boss Yu and the others on weekdays, so he felt a little uncomfortable this time. He could only look at his younger brothers beside him for help.
Gu Leping walked over and bowed to Boss Yu, "My brother has been taken care of by you over the years, but we will be leaving in a few days.
This is some food my eldest brother bought, and it is also a little gift from him. Thank you for your care over the years.
But the road we took to reach your village yesterday was too narrow, and the ox carts couldn't get in at all.
I want to ask you, if it is convenient, can you help carry them into the village?"
Boss Yu looked at the ox carts parked nearby, all of which were piled with food, and was a little surprised. "Are these all for us?"
He looked at Gu Letian in disbelief. Among these people, he was the most familiar with Letian.
Wu Xiaoliu and the others on the side were almost envious. With these grains, Boss Yu and the others could live a good life in the future. At least they wouldn't have to worry about food before the autumn harvest.
Gu Benluo looked at the envious people behind them with a ghostly look, and stuck his head out to say, "If others are willing to help, we can also pay them some compensation."
Since he wanted to help, he might as well be generous. Seeing that these people were not having an easy life, he did good deeds every day and gave his money for the sake of justice.
"Lolo," Gu Leshun pulled him back, "You are planning to use your private money again. When you go back, let's see how you will explain it to Aunt Seven."
Gu Benluo hissed, "Brother Leshun, what are you talking about?
I have so many older brothers, how could a child like me have to pay for money?
I remember that when you guys went out, you carried more money than I did. Do you really have the heart to exploit your lovely little cousin like me?"
Gu Leshun: "..."
Gu Lexi tapped his head lightly and said, "Come back to your senses. This isn't the first time you've gone out with him. Haven't you learned your lesson yet?"
Then he turned to look at Gu Benluo and said, "Luolu, don't always take advantage of your brothers. If you don't believe me, just touch their wallets and you will see they are getting emptier and emptier."
Gu Benluo glanced at Gu Lexi's waist and said, "My brothers all have banknotes on them, how can they not be beaten?
My brother's purse is full, but they are just copper coins taking up space. It's really incomparable."
Gu Lexi reached out and tapped his forehead, "You little rascal."
Looking at Lai San and the others, he said, "Since my brother has already asked for it, let's see if you are willing to earn this salary."
Of course there must be one. Lai San didn't even care about the boss standing in front of him and nodded vigorously.
They had thought of doing odd jobs in the county before, but there were too few people who needed odd jobs in the county. Even if they needed them, they would look for people they knew. It was too difficult for them to earn some money to supplement their family income.
Now the opportunity is in front of me. If I can earn a little more, I can at least buy some salt, bowls and other things to supplement the household expenses.
Seeing that they had brought prey this time, Gu Leping said, "Send these over first. I'll wait for you here."
Only then did Boss Yu and the others remember the important event of going into the city today. They bowed awkwardly to the Gu brothers and hurried to the restaurant.
Gu Letian said to the Gu brothers, "I'm sorry to bother you because of my eldest brother's matter.
I will pay you the wages later, even if it is what my brother owes you. I will definitely pay you back in the future."
Gu Leping, "Brother, are you humiliating us?
We brothers asked others to help us with the work just because we wanted to be lazy, so how could we ask your eldest brother to pay for it?
Besides, we are all brothers, it would not be nice to make such clear distinctions.
I still remember that when my eldest brother went up the mountain to chop firewood, he would always bring us some wild fruits. In the village, if we were bullied by others, my eldest brother would also stand up for us.
What? You are allowed to help us, but we are not allowed to give anything in return."
Gu Letian was touched when he heard this, but he was tongue-tied, "Big, big brother, I didn't mean that. I just don't want you to spend too much money."
The clothes he was wearing were all bought for him by his brothers yesterday. He had never worn anything so decent before.
Gu Leshun touched his head and said, "Brother, I am young and have forgotten what it tasted like when you picked wild fruits for me. If you see them again in the future, can you bring me some more?"
Gu Benluo quickly raised his hands and jumped in front of Gu Leshun, "And me, and me, I have never eaten it before.
Next time someone bullies me, can you help me fight back, big brother?"
Gu Letian: "...Okay, okay!"
"Brother, don't be fooled by this kid," Gu Lekai grabbed Gu Benluo by the back of his shirt and dragged him a few steps back. "Generally speaking, if he asks you to help him, you can't help him easily. It may not be others bullying him, but he may be tossing others."
"That's right. Do you think it's fake that Uncle Qi arranged people around him? Anyway, if this kid comes to you, you must not agree." Gu Leping added with a smile.
Gu Benluo wailed, "My brothers are bullying me. How could I, such a kind-hearted child, do such a thing?
How dare you slander my reputation in front of my elder brother? You really don't care about me, your younger brother."
Gu Letian, who had never seen this scene before, was a little anxious, "Lolo is still young, we have to help him."
"Brother, don't say that too early. Wait until you spend some time with him before drawing any conclusions." Gu Leshun also added, "This is the lesson learned by your brothers through blood and tears."
Gu Letian: "..."
Soon he was amused by the rich expressions on Gu Benluo's face. The boy was grinning and sneering at this moment, invisibly verifying that what others said was true.
Gu Letian's heart was filled with emotion at this moment. It was great that he could finally get his reward after all the hard work. It would be great if he could stay with his family for a long time in the future!
Pushing several carts of food, they were busy until the sun set, and then they returned to the inn.
This time of food can be regarded as the end of his relationship with Xinsheng Village. The chance of meeting again in the future is very slim, so this is already good enough.
