"Filial piety? It has also been castrated by later generations."
Hearing Huoshui's complaints, Gu Qingcheng, a pure ancient person, said, "We value the kindness of fathers and the filial piety of sons. If the father is not kind, the son can also be unfilial!"
The ancients were also reasonable, instead of simply encouraging people to be blindly filial and loyal.
"Repay evil with kindness, how can you repay kindness? It's all the same principle!"
Gu Qingcheng said something to Huoshui casually.
Then, she found two soldiers borrowed from Ma Yong, gave them a silver dollar, and asked them to send Mr. Gu back to the Gu family.
She asked the soldier for help, which had two implications:
First of all, it is naturally a literal help, carrying someone.
The second is "the fox borrows the tiger's power to bully others".
Mr. Gu only had the courage to come and shout because he relied on the so-called "patriarchal power".
Gu Qingcheng didn't buy it and even mobilized the soldiers with guns.
When Mr. Gu wakes up, he will know what to do.
He is not a man of integrity. If he really has the integrity of a scholar, he would not allow others to bully his children in the name of etiquette and law!
Why didn't he dare go to his in-laws to make decisions for his legitimate daughter?
Isn’t it because the legitimate daughter’s father-in-law is the head of the village, and he has more than 20 guards at home and three or four guns?
People like Mr. Gu talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in fact they bully the weak and fear the strong, and are shameless and despicable.
When he was scolded by Gu Qingcheng until he fainted and was sent back by the soldiers, he would realize that the little concubine who once let him control her was no longer a ruthless person he could afford to offend.
From then on, even if Li Jiye went to deceive people again, Gu Juren would not dare to come again.
"We still have to leave here!"
Although Mr. Gu was scolded unconscious, the troubles in the small county town will still arise.
Li Jiye will probably continue to cause trouble.
And the silver and money in her hand are too eye-catching.
Ma Yong has already sold the shops and fertile land he acquired in the county town one after another.
In a few days, he should be able to leave with his troops.
Once Ma Yong leaves, if Gu Qingcheng stays in the county, she will definitely be plotted against.
Although she was reluctant to leave Hans, don't get her wrong, she didn't have a good impression of these red-haired, green-eyed barbarians.
It's simply because I don't want to give up the knowledge that others have.
Gu Qingcheng discovered that Hans could not only teach her D language, but was also proficient in pharmacology.
It is said that before he became a monk, he was a top student at some medical college.
Western medicine seems to have surpassed traditional Chinese medicine.
Gu Qingcheng will not underestimate herself, but she will not be blindly arrogant either.
Every person and every country has something to learn.
Gu Qingcheng is very clear-headed. Once she realizes her shortcomings, she will try her best to catch up.
"Forget it, safety is more important."
Gu Qingcheng thought for a long time and finally made a choice.
"Besides, there are bigger churches in the provincial capital, and there should be more foreigners there."
Gu Qingcheng could completely "follow suit" and learn from the foreign monks in the provincial capital.
"Ms. Gu, this is your share!"
That day, Ma Yong came to the inn carrying a box.
When the lid of the box was opened, envelopes of silver dollars were revealed.
One hundred yuan per letter, and there are five letters in total.
"Five hundred dollars, count it!"
Ma Yong was very generous. Instead of deducting any money this time, he gave Gu Qingcheng a little more to make the amount even.
"No need to count, I trust the general!"
Gu Qingcheng always addressed Ma Yong as General, not Commander.
This made Ma Yong feel both curious and useful.
It was as if he was not some random warlord, but an orthodox general.
"I'm leaving tomorrow, Ms. Gu, do you want to come with me?"
Ma Yong habitually avoided Gu Qingcheng's face.
Ahem, it wasn't that he really disliked it, he just couldn't stand the bruises and redness.
Although these few days have passed, the scars on Gu Qingcheng's face are slowly fading away.
But the first impression was too deep. Whenever Ma Yong saw Gu Qingcheng, he would think of her swollen pig-like head.
"Then I'll trouble you, General!"
Of course she had to go to the provincial capital with Ma Yong, it would be much safer that way.
It also saves the money of hiring a bodyguard.
"Okay! Meet at the county train station at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
Ma Yong brought three hundred people to requisition food and wages. After getting the money, Ma Yong generously chartered a train car.
"Okay, thank you, General."
Gu Qingcheng also wanted to take a train to see if this horseless vehicle was really as fast and convenient as described in the newspapers.

After coming out of the inn and returning to his temporary residence, Ma Yong saw his adjutant running in before he could sit down and drink some tea.
"Commander! The Overseer is calling!"
Ma Yong didn't even reach out his hand. What was he looking at? He didn't know who it was.
"read!"
Ma Yong gave the order directly.
"yes!"
The adjutant read a few words of the telegram, then hesitated and said, "Well, the governor also said that he wants to be a matchmaker for you."
"The girl is the daughter of a textile factory worker in the provincial capital. I heard she even studied abroad. She's a real foreign student."
