Su Qi's purpose in doing this was simply to prevent Gu Jingru from absorbing more luck. As the little koi's luck grew, so did their strength. How could they possibly be her opponent then?
We must stop her on the road to exile. It would be best if her little koi halo had no place to be used.
When they arrived at Jinyang Prefecture, they lived separately.
Who cares who the little koi is?
She just wanted to buy land and hire people to do business, and be a rich and free person.
Gu Beiheng and his group came out.
Old Huang followed behind Gu Beiheng, and he looked at Gu Beiheng as if he was a dying man.
What a coincidence.
Su Qi followed Old Huang with the same gaze. After counting on her fingers, she realized that Old Huang would not survive past midnight tonight.
I just don’t know what kind of valuables Old Huang has?
Su Qi stretched out his left hand and touched his chin. Silver bills and silver ingots appeared before his eyes. He couldn't help but let out a sly smile.
Su Qi smiled and thought about it. Old Huang's attitude towards Gu Beiheng was not bad before. If there was any slight change, it was in the past few days.
He must have received benefits from others at the post station.
I have to say, Su Qi's truth is revealed.
Every official was in a bad mood. They had just buried their colleague, so naturally they had a bad attitude towards the exiled people.
The officer with the mole on his mouth roughly shackled Gu Beiheng, tying several extra ropes in his hand. "Gu Beiheng, be smart. Don't try to get yourself killed."
The man approached Gu Beiheng and whispered, raising the hilt of the knife in his hand and shaking it.
"Behave yourself, old man."
Gu Beiheng's eyes flickered, but he remained silent. His burned hands clenched into fists, trying to conceal his inner anger. He wondered how Ying Yi and the others were doing.
I can't let myself be bullied like this. I have to collect some interest.
No one mentioned the missing people.
The dead rest here, and the living continue on their journey.
After walking for about half an hour, it started raining again.
Su Qi covered the backpack with oilcloth. She took out a straw raincoat and straw hat for Gu Beiheng to wear, and then put them on herself.
Dressed like this, the two of them looked just like the fisherman and his wife in the painting.
The others also took straw raincoats and umbrellas.
Those who had nothing could only pull up some straw from the roadside, tie it up temporarily and drape it over their bodies.
Old Huang was riding on his horse, looking coldly at the Gu family members who were still stumbling forward.
The whip in his hand swept directly towards the person next to him, making a harsh sound in the air.
Gu Beichen hunched his shoulders and tried to walk, but he was suddenly whipped on the back. He frowned and cried out in pain, not daring to stop. He could only grit his teeth and endure the pain and continue forward.
"Let's go. Let's go even if it rains today. If anyone gives me bad ideas again, I'll kill him." The old yellow man spat a mouthful of phlegm at everyone, and there seemed to be double vision in front of his eyes.
He frowned and shook his head slightly, then reached out to touch the back of his head.
I was a little confused and thought about seeing a doctor when I got to Yueyang County tomorrow.
Old Huang gave the order to leave, and no one else dared to say anything.
The bearded man kept his hand on the hilt of the knife, his cold eyes scanning Gu Beiheng and Old Huangtou. His expressionless face was furrowed in a frown.
Everyone in the group had their own thoughts.
No one dared to speak, and no one dared to complain.
Everyone knew that the usually smiling old man was on the verge of a rage. How much more so was the burly man with the charcoal-like beard walking around? His eagle eyes scrutinized passersby, his hand on the hilt, ready to draw his machete and start slashing.
It was three quarters past midnight.
Only then were we allowed to take a break and drink some rain water.
There was no post station, no towns or villages along the way. There was no place to buy anything, so everyone could only drink water to fill their stomachs.
Su Qi gave Dabao and Erbao a meat bun each, and the two little guys each held a milk bottle and drank milk.
Anyway, I was sitting in the backpack, covered by the oilcloth, so no one could see what I was eating.
Gu Beiheng devoured three meat buns and drank a full bag of eight-treasure porridge. Su Qi also gave him some old wine to drive away the cold.
Compared to the other people who looked pale, Su Qi's family looked relatively good.
At least I got enough nutrition and didn’t go hungry.
It means walking a lot.
Wearing rain boots on a rainy day, I'm afraid my feet have a few blisters. Walking is not very comfortable. Su Qi secretly regrets that she should have killed Old Huang earlier.
If the other officers made any unusual moves, the worst that could happen was that Gu Beiheng would snap their necks.
Once you reach a lawless area, the worst that can happen is that you become a mountain king.
It was more than half past the You hour before I could vaguely see the sign of the post station.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Huang took a deep breath and exhaled a puff of turbid air. He had to get to the post station early and write a letter to have it delivered early tomorrow morning.
"Hurry up. I'll give you a snack tonight." Old Huang was in a good mood, with white silver floating in front of his eyes.
This one vote would make him rich, and when he returned to the capital, he could resign and return to the countryside to buy a large house with three entrances and several servants. He could also buy three to five hundred acres of farmland and a few skinny horses from the south of the Yangtze River and live a happy life.
Think of this.
Old Huang's teeth were showing when he laughed.
He dismounted and handed the horse to the post station attendant. He casually threw a few large coins over and said, "I'll get you some wine."
The servant bowed and thanked him.
"Thank you for the reward, sir."
Gu Beiheng still asked for a single room, paid the rent, took the wooden shackles, and returned to the room with Su Qi and the child.
Fang Xiaoya's family, Gu Wushen, Zhang Yunyu and others lived next door to Su Qi's family.
Gu Beihan came over with a wooden shackle in his hand and knocked on the door with a stern look on his face, "Gu Beiheng, Su Qi. Open the door for me."
The door was slammed with a loud bang.
"Brother, what's the matter?" Gu Beiheng was about to open the door to fetch water when he heard someone banging on the door.
"Why did your wife target Xiaoya? Xiaoya is such a nice person, but she was frightened by your tigress and was crying the whole way.
Gu Beiheng, if you don't take care of your tigress, don't blame me for being rude." Gu Beihan's face was gloomy. Thinking of Fang Xiaoya's delicate face and her suppressed crying, he wanted to pull Su Qi's hair and make her kneel in front of Fang Xiaoya and beg for mercy.
"How do you want to be rude?" Gu Beiheng asked disdainfully: "Want to fight with me?
My Qiqi is kind-hearted and honest. If it makes my sister-in-law uncomfortable, please bear with it. If you really can't bear it, just bear with it."
Su Qi burst out laughing in the room, making a pig-like sound.
Gu Beiheng, this rough guy, has such a lovely side. I almost want to become his sworn brother.
"Gu Beiheng, are you protecting someone?"
"If you want to protect me, then do it. If you don't want to protect me, why are you knocking on my door? When did our relationship become so good that I would let you, the eldest son, visit my place." Gu Beiheng refused to give in.
The subordinate pushed Gu Beihan away with force.
"If you have that much time, hurry up and line up to get your steamed bread. As a man, you have to shoulder your responsibilities." Gu Beiheng almost pointed at him and scolded him for being a coward who always let women do the work.
Fang Xiaoya is used to doing bad things behind people's backs.
"You, I'm your big brother." Gu Beihan yelled, jumping up and down. He clenched his fists and then unclenched them. He didn't have the courage to fight Gu Beiheng in a one-on-one fight.
"I know you're my eldest brother. In my eyes, you're not as important as the concierge."
Gu Beiheng replied rudely, turned around and went to the front yard to find the official to buy hot water.
Gu Beihan was left staring at Su Qi's door with a sinister look. Su Qi came out of the room and poured a basin of dirty water on his feet.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Dabao's uncle, I thought there was a thief outside." Su Qi smiled slyly in her smart eyes.
She was almost saying that the one I threw the splash at was you.
...What can you do to me?
Even if you don't like it, you have to bear it with me.
"Beiheng is not in the room. I was scared when I saw a sneaky shadow. I never thought it was you." Su Qi put the basin in the corner and patted his chest in fear.
Gu Beihan: ...Which thief is this from the post station? I suspect you did it on purpose, although I have no evidence.
"We are all sisters-in-law, don't bully my Xiaoya."
Su Qi sneered:
"Who bullied your Xiaoya? Who bullied her?"
Half leaning against the door, Su Qi deliberately mocked loudly when she saw Fang Xiaoya and Zhang Yunyu appear from the side.
"Bullying your Xiaoya? I did, what do you say? I just love bullying people, and if you can't stand it, ask my Beiheng's fist, will you agree?"
