Okay. Gu Jinli responded, took Erqing away, and returned to the big house in the middle of Zhuangzi.
Xiaoji had already boiled the water. Seeing that Gu Jinli was back, he hurriedly added the hot water to lukewarm temperature. After testing the water temperature, he said to Gu Jinli: "Little boss, hurry up and wash up. After washing, we have to go home."
"Yeah." Gu Jinli responded, went to the next room to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, and took Xiaoji and the others home.
While passing by Qingfu Town, I heard a gossip that Dou Shaodongs house had been robbed.
"Do you know Dou Shaodong's family? He is the boy who spent a hundred taels of silver to buy a basket of wild fruits. Hey, I heard that he was robbed by a group of gangsters on his way back to the county seat and was even beaten. Her nose is bruised and her face is swollen, and the good looks of Mr. Yu are gone, but that girl Eryu is so distressed that she cried straight after hearing the news."
Eryu is a girl from a family in the town. After meeting Dou Shaodong's family, she fell in love with Dou Shaodong's family and wanted to marry him as a concubine. However, Dou Shaodong's family was not interested in her at all and said she was ugly, fat and buck-toothed.
Eryu's parents were so angry that every time they heard that Dou Shaodong's family was coming to town, they would lock Eryu up and prevent her from running to Dou Shaodong's family. They also cursed Dou Shaodong's family, saying that he was too monster-looking. How can he get married after he has caused trouble to his own girl?
Dou Shaodong's family also understood that Eryu's reputation would be ruined after he said that he would marry him as a concubine. It would be difficult to marry into a good family in the future... Well, actually, just like Eryu, it would be difficult to marry into a good family without a bad reputation. of.
But Dou Shaodong's family was rich, and he felt uncomfortable without spending money for a day, so he asked his servants to give three hundred taels of silver notes to Eryu's family, saying that it was a dowry for Eryu, so that she could marry into a good family.
As soon as this happened, Eryu's whole family went crazy. They stopped scolding him and kept saying good things about him. They begged him to take Eryu away, saying that it would be fine if he didn't want to be a concubine, but just a maid. Serve him.
After all, it is three hundred taels of silver, which is enough to feed and clothe a farmer for a lifetime.
Dou Shaodong's family was very depressed. He gave the money to Eryu to stop pestering him, but it had the opposite effect. Now not only Eryu likes him more, but Eryu's whole family loves him to death.
After hearing that he had been beaten, Eryu's family rushed to the county town in tears to beat the drums to complain and report him to the official. Fortunately, Dou Shaodong's family found out quickly and stopped him.
When Gu Jinli heard that Dou Shaodong's house had been robbed, he laughed. He smiled very sweetly. It must have been done by Brother Qin. Brother Qin said that he would help her get revenge... He dared to say that he fell in love at first sight with her. This was considered a big deal in ancient times. If she didn't give Dou Shaodong a lesson for being frivolous, he would have thought that she and Brother Qin were vegetarians.
"Dou Shaodong's house was robbed. Does that mean that bandits came to our Tianfu County? I heard that there was a bandit trouble in Hukang County some time ago. Could it be that the bandits from Hukang County escaped to our Tianfu County? Hey, if this is really the case, what should we do?" Mrs. Cai from the town was very worried. She hugged her little grandson and asked her good sister Mrs. Xu.
Xu Erpo said: "How is it possible that there are so many powerful people in Qin Baihu that they can let the bandits in Hukang County escape? The bandits have long been captured and sent to Fucheng. Dou Sancaihui was robbed, and it was all him The old lady doesn't take money seriously. She keeps giving away money day by day. The money arouses people's bad intentions. Who would she rob if she didn't rob her? If she wasn't afraid of sitting down, she would take a kitchen knife to rob him. Too rich Money!
Dou Sancai is another nickname given to Dou Shaodong's family by the women in the town. Don't tell me, it suits him very well.
Mrs. Cai agreed very much with Mrs. Xu's words and said: "Dou Sancai is really in need of robbing, but we are good citizens and we can't rob him... Hey, you said, why don't we learn from Eryu? You cried and shouted. If you become Dou Sancai's concubine, you might be able to get Dou Sancai's three hundred taels of silver for free."
The two old ladies were talking and talked about how to defraud Dou Shaodong's family of their money.
Xiao Ji was very interested in hearing this and said to Gu Jinli: "My dear boss, Mrs. Cai is really smart. She has thought of such an idea. I'm afraid the Cai family will make a fortune." Will it harm their family? Do you really think Dou is that stupid?"
Xiaoji: "But Dou Shaodong's family is really not smart. He looks pretty good, and he looks smart when doing business, but when it comes to these grannies, he is very stupid."
Gu Jinli:
It seems that Dou Shaodong's family bought a basket of wild fruits with a hundred taels of silver notes, which gave everyone the impression that he is a fool. But Dou is so good at business, how could he be a fool? I like to give away money. I guess I gave it out of kindness after seeing how poor everyone was living.
"Er Qing, let's go." Gu Jinli already knew about Brother Qin's revenge for her, so he didn't stay any longer and let Er Qing drive the mule cart home.
Dou Shaodong's family is indeed not stupid. Although he was beaten with a black nose and a swollen face, he was very happy, knowing that it was Qin Sanlang who was teaching him a lesson.
The reason why he was happy was very simple, because the group of people who beat him gave him a sentence: "Don't meddle in other people's business. No matter what difficulties other people encounter, others can solve them by themselves. You are not needed. Don't bother." Its not helpful, otherwise youll be stuffed into the stove and burned.
Most people wouldnt think much about this sentence, but Dou Shaodongs family recognized it. Mr. Qin Xiaohou specially asked someone to say this sentence to him.
The meaning is that his help is not needed at the moment. If he helps at this time, it will be a disservice and will harm him.
Just wait to be stuffed into the stove and burned. This is the key point.
The name of Dou Shaodongs family is Dou Ke. Qin Xiaohou and his playmates like to call him Dou Ke. Bean shells are used for burning. When they were children, they often said that they would throw Dou Ke into the stove and burn them.
Dou Shaodong's family was very happy, almost crying with joy. Mr. Qin Xiaohou was not dead, he was still alive, and he was found by himself!
"The compensation of ten thousand taels is a bit small. I should pay fifty thousand taels. If there is a chance in the future, I can kneel down and apologize again." Dou Shaodong's family muttered, don't think he is talking crazy, he is serious.
Dou Shaodong's family has always respected Mr. Qin Xiaohou. In addition to the fact that Mr. Qin once helped him and indirectly saved his life so that his stepmother could not kill him, it was also because of his class.
Qin Xiaohou's family is a hereditary noble family, but his family is just an imperial merchant. Although they are rich, they are looked down upon in the capital.
In such an environment, Dou Shaodong's parents knew from an early age that when seeing such noble people, they should be polite and avoid them and not offend them. Therefore, although he became friends with Mr. Qin Xiaohou, he still felt that Mr. Qin was much superior to him. He must respect Mr. Qin and his future wife.
"Shaodongjia, please go out and meet the Liu family. Liu Eryu said he wanted to jump into the well." Dou Zhi was helpless. Liu Eryu was too infatuated with Shaodongjia and she really couldn't deal with it.
