As for strangers, especially foreigners with red hair and green eyes, they were so scared that they hid themselves.
Alas, too inferior and too ignorant.
Hans was filled with compassion.
At this moment, Hans was pleasantly surprised to find that a woman had voluntarily walked into the church.
The woman's face was covered in bruises, as if she was disfigured.
But she held her head high and chest out, exuding confidence and elegance from the inside out.
The most important point is that she doesn’t have bound feet, and her walking posture is very normal and beautiful!
"Ma'am, how can I help you?"
Hans couldn't help but be very polite to Gu Qingcheng, without any of the arrogance of a foreigner who looked down on and oppressed ordinary people.
Gu Qingcheng raised her eyebrows: Oh wow, this foreign monk can speak Mandarin.
The tone is a little strange.
Gu Qingcheng bowed slightly, "Father, hello. Can you teach me how to read?"
As she spoke, Gu Qingcheng took out a foreign book from her bag.
She bought this book from a bookstore at a high price.
I heard there are only a few copies in the entire county.
The words on it were so tortuous that Gu Qingcheng couldn't understand them at all.
"Can you read?"
Hans was even more surprised.
He glanced at the book in Gu Qingcheng's hand. Well, it was a collection of English poems.
"You want to learn English? Actually, we are also good at Chinese."
Hans is a traditional German, and he is proud of his Germanic nation.
The key point is that his English is only at the elementary level, and he is best at Chinese.
"Dwen?"
Gu Qingcheng's eyes flashed. The waiter at the inn had said that there were many people from D country in the provincial capital.
Moreover, the D country also built a railway station and a cathedral in the provincial capital, so it should have a relatively high status in the provincial capital.
Gu Qingcheng firmly believes in the principle of "capture the leader first" and she is very good at grasping the key points.
"Father, please take a look at these other books I bought. Do you think there are any pornographic ones?"
Gu Qingcheng took out two or three more books from her bag and showed them to Hans one by one.
Hans took a quick look and found that everything was in English.
However, Hans was not discouraged. He smiled and said, "I have D documents here. Besides, I can also teach you to speak D."
"Thanks!"
Gu Qingcheng bowed.
She sincerely respects anyone who can impart her knowledge.
Hans was in a very good mood when he saw Gu Qingcheng's sincerity and felt her respect.
It is such a wonderful feeling to be a teacher.
As a "teacher", I was extremely excited to meet a very smart student who could apply what he learned to other situations.
"Ms. Gu, you are really outstanding!"
In just a few days, Gu Qingcheng mastered simple D language and could also carry out some daily communication.
Hans couldn't help but give a thumbs-up repeatedly.
Gu Qingcheng smiled slightly, "It's all thanks to your good teaching, Mr. Hans!"
After spending a few days together, the two sides became familiar with each other.
Gu Qingcheng did not politely call the other person "Father", but called him by his name.
"Are you going to the provincial capital?"
After becoming friends, Hans also knew some of Gu Qingcheng's situation -
Divorced and living alone with the children.
Although she received some "alimony", in the feudal and conservative Republic of China, people like Ms. Gu were easily discriminated against and bullied.
Hans suddenly remembered something and asked hurriedly, "I heard someone was giving you trouble yesterday? Is the matter resolved? Do you need my help?"
A book-reading app recommended to me by a book friend of ten years, Huanyuan App! It's so damn useful! I use it to pass the time reading aloud and listening to books while driving or before bed. You can download it here.
"It's been resolved, thank you, Mr. Hans."
Gu Qingcheng felt Hans' kindness and knew that he really wanted to help, so she thanked him sincerely.
She couldn't help but recall last night's farce in her mind.
Gu Qingcheng was right in her guess. Li Jiye "regretted" it and was unwilling to let Gu Qingcheng go.
However, Li Jiye was a man of some brains, and many people had seen the scene of Gu Qingcheng and Ma Yong having a pleasant conversation in the bookstore that day.
Rumors began to spread in the county town, saying that Commander Ma had taken a fancy to Gu and was helping her to seize the family property.
Some people also said that Gu was Pan Jinlian, who colluded with an adulterer outside to harm her own husband.
No matter how ugly the rumors are, they all reveal one fact - Gu is related to Ma Yong!
Believing that Gu had relied on Ma Yong, Li Jiye didn't dare to go to Gu in person.
But he did not give up. Nine-tenths of his family property was lost because of that bitch Gu.
In addition to resentment, Li Jiye also wanted to take back some property from the Gu family.
He originally gave half of his property to Li Yaozong.
Now that the Li family has fallen on hard times and has no money, it wouldn't be too much to ask for the property given to their son back.
Li Jiye had an idea, but was afraid of the gun in Ma Yong's hand, so he simply sent someone to Gu's house.
Gu is not an orphan without parents. She has a biological father and a stepmother.
Gu's biological father, Juren Gu, was notoriously rigid and conservative...
