Chapter 42 Did something happen?
Gu Nanming came back to his senses, forced a smile, and shook his head: "It's okay, it's okay."
He thought that there were so many people here, even one of them would not dare to act recklessly.
Several people came to the two brothers, Gu Dongming greeted them a few words, and gave each of them a few chestnuts.
After eating, these people nodded, bought a bowl each, and left chatting and laughing.
Seeing them leave, Gu Nanming let out a deep breath, guessing that the man might not have recognized him.
As a result, after a while, the man who attacked them that day came back stealthily.
When he saw this man coming back, Gu Nanming's heart was in his throat.
"Brother, my name is Hazai. I'm sorry for what happened that day. We only do this for money. But don't worry, our Cleaver Gang won't take on that kid's affairs again.
Moreover, our eldest brother has also said that no one is allowed to disrupt the stall set up by you brothers and sisters.
Please say a few good words to Master Chen when the time comes. Our boss will also thank you." Ha Zai said this while looking towards the entrance of the alley not far away.
There were a few people standing at the entrance of the alley. The leader was beaten so badly that his face was bruised and swollen that he was unrecognizable.
hehe……
A row of idiots, showing their uneven teeth, two of whom had their front teeth knocked out when fighting with Gu Xiaoxi.
hehe……
Gu Nanming could only wave his hand friendly as a greeting to them.
When the leader of the Cleaver Gang saw people smiling at him, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
They thought they had taken on an easy business that day, but not only did they fail to complete the business and almost didn't receive the money, their brother was also beaten.
That was not the case. That night, he was invited by the Chen family. When he got there, he found out that they were so blind that they actually attacked the third son of the Chen family.
Fortunately, the third son of the Chen family was easy to talk to, otherwise, he would have been dead long ago.
When he came back, he immediately told his men that if they met the two siblings setting up stalls again, they should not pick a fight with them but should be friendly towards them.
When Hazai saw that his brother had forgiven them, he took out a basin and said, "Here, fill it up for me, your brother."
Hey hey hey…
Gu Nanming nodded in agreement, thinking to himself, are these guys trying to show goodwill just to get their chestnuts for free?
However, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, so even so, he could only admit defeat.
Who would have thought that when the basin was full, Yawn not only gave the money, but also gave a few more cents.
"Let's go, brothers. See you next time." After saying goodbye, Hazi took the basin and went to find his boss.
A group of fools went into the alley while eating chestnuts and never came out again.
Gu Dongming didn't think these people were good people. After they left, he asked seriously, "Tell me, what happened before?"
Gu Nanming knew that he couldn't hide it, so he told his elder brother everything that happened the day before yesterday.
After listening to this, Gu Dongming finally understood why his sister wanted to teach them martial arts. He never thought the city was so chaotic.
"Or, if we're sold out today, we won't come at all," he said dejectedly.
“That won’t do, my sister said that even without this famine, we still have to eat.
Nowadays, no matter where it is peaceful, it's the same everywhere. Rich people hire people to protect them, so they are not afraid. As long as we work hard, we can also become rich people. "Gu Nanming repeated the bold words his sister taught him to his eldest brother.
Gu Dongming...
That seems to be the case.
"If that's the case, then we must learn skills from our sister so that we can protect her." He said with a serious face.
hehe……
Gu Nanming laughed after hearing this.
"What are you laughing at, little brat?" Gu Dongming glared at him.
"Brother, you didn't see it. That day, my sister beat five people alone and knocked them all down. My sister said she didn't need our protection, we can protect ourselves." Gu Nanming said with admiration.
Gu Dongming couldn't believe what he heard. His sister used to have a bad temper, but she was always the one bullied in fights. He didn't expect her to be so powerful now.
It seems that my sister suffered too much in the Tao family, which enabled her to practice kung fu through hardship.
He must study hard, just like his sister said, at least he should be able to protect himself when he goes out.
Gu Xiaoxi on the other side was also busy. Although not a lot of people came at once, there were people coming one after another.
Before noon, Gu Dongming came back.
"Why did you come back alone?" Gu Xiaoxi asked curiously.
"There's only a little bit left over there, and the third brother said he can do it himself, so he asked me to come over here and help you." Gu Dongming said truthfully.
Today, he finally saw his brother's business skills and realized that he had really underestimated him.
"It's sold out so quickly?" Gu Xiaoxi was surprised.
Um!
Gu Dongming nodded, sat down, and told Gu Xiaoxi what had just happened.
Gu Xiaoxi couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and then said, "No fight, no acquaintance. Just forget it if they don't fight anymore."
However, she remembered Chen Qinian's kindness in her heart.
After waiting for a while, the gate of the academy opened and a group of scholars rushed in.
Gu Xiaoxi and his sister started to get busy, and Brother Tan and his wife also got busy.
Gu Xiaoxi glanced over there and found that the owner of the stall over there was not there today. A stranger was watching over the stall.
There was no one at the stall, but there were flies flying around.
After being busy for a while, I didn't see Chen Qinian come out, but I saw a few scholars with Chen Qinian.
"Mr. Lu, isn't Mr. Chen here today?" she asked.
"Miss, someone in my third brother's family is sick, so he went back yesterday afternoon and hasn't come since." Mr. Lu replied.
"Relatives? Is it serious?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.
Mr. Lu ate a chestnut and replied in a low voice, "It's his second brother. I don't know what the specific illness is."
Gu Xiaoxi frowned after hearing this. Just when she was about to ask something else, Chen Qinian suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Third brother, please sit down." Master Lu saw his best friend coming over and pulled a stool over.
Chen Qinian looked in a very bad mood. He glanced at his follower Chen Er, who placed the basket he brought in front of Gu Xiaoxi.
Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Gu Xiaoxi filled his glass directly.
Chen Er wanted to pay the money, but she stopped him: "No need to pay, I said, I will take care of his chestnuts from now on, I keep my word."
"Sister Xiaoxi, I was just joking with you. It's not easy for you to do business, so keep it!" Chen Qinian no longer called her "sister", he changed his address.
Gu Xiaoxi said seriously, "I don't care. I keep my word."
Seeing that Sister Xiaoxi was determined, Chen Qinian did not insist anymore, for fear that he would be considered as looking down on her.
Seeing Chen Qinian's depressed look, Gu Xiaoxi asked, "Did something happen? You seem to be in a bad mood."
