After being dressed as a scumbag, I was dismissed? !

Gu Beizhi found that Erbao spoke more quickly than Dabao, and his sentences were longer. It seems that there are still some differences between the two brothers.

He kept his arms open, without any sign of impatience, and exuded a gentle smile at Erbao. Guan Zhou refused to approach, and Erbao pulled him several times, but he just didn't move, and he couldn't help feeling a little anxious, "Daddy, let's go together!" Play, Daddy!"

How could Guan Zhou dare to approach Gu Beizhi? Not only did he not want to approach him, but he also didn't want the children to approach him, so he stubbornly stood there without saying a word.

Gu Beizhi sighed inwardly, and instead of forcing him, stood up and approached him.

Guan Zhou couldn't help but wanted to retreat, but he was afraid of angering Gu Beizhi, so he could only stand on the spot and stop the two children behind him while trembling on guard.

Gu Beizhi walked up to him and hugged Er Bao. Er Bao was lighter than Da Bao, and looked a little top-heavy, like a big-headed doll, with more withered and yellow hair.

Unable to stop feeling distressed, Gu Beizhi put Erbao on his shoulders, "Come on, Erbao is also held high, hold on firmly."

Erbao was trembling like his little dad at first, but his dad's gentle voice and warm palms made him not so scared. Sitting on his daddy's shoulder, he saw a lot of things in his sight, and the novelty also shifted a little. His fear.

Gu Beizhi didn't make any exciting moves, he just put Erbao on his shoulder, walked around Guan Zhou, and then put the child down.

Seeing how Guan Zhou immediately pulled the child over, he knew that he would have to work harder for the other party to trust him.

There was no discomfort at all, and he always had a gentle smile on his face, "Take the children to eat eggs, eat something to eat, and come back later to figure out what to eat for dinner."

He knew that there was only bottom left in the rice tank at home, at most half a bowl of rice, not enough for rice porridge.

Dabao and Erbao didn't swallow their saliva loudly, but both adults noticed it, and Guan Zhou blamed himself to death.

So he mustered up his courage, led the two children into the kitchen, peeled the eggs, and broke half of them for Dabao and Erbao.

Gu Beizhi stopped him, "One for each person, no need to divide in half."

Guan Zhou glanced at him, then gave Dabao a whole egg, and Dabao happily took the egg and took a bite, chewing carefully, it was as delicious as if he had eaten some delicacy.

Seeing that Gu Beizhi didn't seem to lose his temper, Guan Zhou fished out another egg from the pot, peeled the shell and handed it to him, wanting him to eat first.

Gu Beizhi took the egg, and stuffed it into the hands of Erbao who had been looking at Dabao enviously without saying a word, "Don't look at your brother, Erbao, eat the egg quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."

"Guan Zhou, bring the child some hot water, it's a bit dry to eat eggs alone." He talked to Guan Zhou as naturally as possible.

Guan Zhou pursed his lips, obediently found a bowl, took a bowl of hot water from the boiling pot, blew it to the right temperature, and handed it to the child.

Dabao ate carefully, without any crumbs falling off, took a sip of water from Guan Zhou's hand, and quickly stuffed eggs into his mouth. Erbao was not as careful as he ate, and there were some broken eggs on his face. Crumbs, but eating very attentively.

Looking at the two children eating eggs, Gu Beizhi's eyes couldn't help being sour and swollen. If he could see the original owner, he would definitely teach him a lesson!

At the same time, the idea of ​​wanting to feed the two children took root in my heart and became an obsession.

When Gu Beizhi saw that there was only one egg left in the pot, he knew what Guan Zhou was thinking, so he divided the egg in half and gave it to him, "Next time, each person will have one, so don't cook too little."

Guan Zhou looked at the half egg that could be eaten in one bite, and was a little surprised. This was the first time Gu Beizhi offered him something to eat.

Gu Beizhi settled his share in one gulp, and urged Guan Zhou, "Eat quickly, or it will be cold."

Guan Zhou silently ate half of the egg, but felt less uneasy. It seemed that Gu Beizhi really didn't intend to beat him to death.

It wasn't until the two children couldn't help being sleepy that they were carried back to the house by Gu Beizhi and fell asleep on the bed, then the two adults had a little time to spend alone.

Gu Beizhi and Guan Zhou didn't speak, only the silence spread, exacerbating Guan Zhou's uneasiness.Gu Beizhi sighed, pointed to his head and said, "You almost killed me by hitting this one."

Guan Zhou looked at him in panic, trembling like a frightened rabbit unable to resist.

"However, they didn't kill me, but woke me up." Gu Beizhi immediately continued, "I saw my parents when I was in a coma, and they scolded me and asked me to apologize to you, and Live your life well, I think my parents are right."

"I will never go drinking again, and I will never do anything to you or your child again. I swear, if I break this oath, I will die a terrible death." Gu Beizhi held up three fingers together and said very solemnly.

The ancients were all superstitious, and this poisonous oath cannot be made. Guan Zhou was a little anxious, "Bah! Bah! Bah! It doesn't count! Don't talk nonsense!"

Gu Beizhi smiled, "Do you care about me?"

Guan Zhou didn't speak again, just looked at him with uneasy eyes.

Gu Beizhi always felt that those eyes were familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw them, and he was anxious to make Guan Zhou believe him, so he said solemnly, "I'm not talking nonsense, I really swear that I will change If you have a bad problem, you will work hard to make money to support your family in the future, so that you and your children can have enough food and clothing.”

When Guan Zhou heard this, he believed it in his heart.

It's not that he's stupid, but that Gu Beizhi doesn't need to lie to him.

Even if Gu Beizhi beat him and scolded him, as long as he didn't die, no one would care.

Guan Zhou tried his best to make himself look less afraid of Gu Beizhi, "I believe in you, no need to swear."

Gu Beizhi didn't force Guan Zhou to believe him right away, but said another thing, "I always drink, and I don't have any money at home. That's all. See how much food I can buy. It may be possible in half a month." Just work harder, and the monthly payment will be fine next month."

He handed over the remaining scraps of silver, which were less than two taels, to Guan Zhou, thinking that this amount of money would not last half a month, and he might have to borrow money.

Unexpectedly, Guan Zhou stuffed the money back into his hands, "This money cannot be moved, it has to be returned to the gambling house."

Gu Beizhi felt like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and his voice was a little raised, "What?"

Guan Zhou shivered for a moment, pursed his lips, moved his eyes from side to side, and said tremblingly, "You came home from drinking too much the day before yesterday, and you came home to get money, and you lost the bet..."

At this time, some fragmented memories suddenly broke into Gu Beizhi's mind, all of which were memories of him going to the casino to gamble with others after he was drunk.

It's only in the last three or four months.

The person who took him to gamble was the gangster Wang Ergou from the same village.Wang Ergou really did all the tricks, and was almost sent to prison by the village. For some reason, he followed Gu Beizhi five months ago.

The original owner didn't bother to take care of Wang Ergou when he was sober, but when he was drunk, he would be fooled by Wang Ergou and went to the casino.

I don't know if the original owner was stingy enough and lucky enough. Even if he bet casually, he didn't lose much. Of course, he only bet a few copper coins every time, and he couldn't win much.

It's just that the original owner drank too much again three days ago, and after being taken to the casino, he lost all his copper coins. He was also tempted to borrow [-] copper coins from the casino. The original owner was only willing to borrow so much, even though Wang Ergou kept agitating He, he didn't agree, and he lost all the two hundred Wen without accident.

He said that he came home to get the money, and the money in the casino was a usury, so he doubled it in one night, and in the three days of delay, the original [-] copper coins had become [-] copper coins.

When Gu Beizhi returned home, he only said that he had lost the money, but he didn’t say how much he had lost. Guan Zhou thought he had lost everything, so he naturally didn’t want him to take all the money away. There is still half a month left, and the family has no money at all. , The food is almost bottomed out, how will the three of them live?

There is the scene of being beaten and fighting back.

The more Gu Beizhi thought about it, the more he felt that this was a trap, but the person who set the trap seemed to be very patient, bit by bit grinding the original owner into a waste. If he didn't pass through, what would the original owner become?

Probably a bastard who loves to drink and gamble, and in the end he even lost his reputation as a scholar.

Gu Beizhi knew that the repayment of the casino money could not be delayed, once the debt was delayed, it would be endless, and it would never be paid off.He took a tael of silver, and gave the rest to Guan Zhou, "The casino can't delay, I'll go and pay back the money first, and you can use the rest of the money to buy some food first, as much as you can buy, Let's discuss it when I get back."

Guan Zhou accepted the money, no matter what, only with money can he have confidence.With this money, enough food for a month.

Gu Beizhi didn't know much about the prices here. He just felt that there was not much money, but he didn't know that the peasants' expenditure of two taels of silver throughout the year was enough.

After explaining to Guan Zhou, he took the money and hurried to the town.

If he didn't go today, he would have another two hundred coppers in debt tomorrow, so he should go now.So he left the house in a hurry and went straight to the town.

Fortunately, he has the memory of the original owner, otherwise he would have to find someone to take him there, and it would be a waste of time.

What he didn't know was that as soon as he left the house, Guan Zhou took the money and ran to his second uncle's house. His second uncle was so devoted to farming, paid the land tax, and still had a surplus of food.

"Second Uncle, Second Aunt." Guan Zhou was afraid that the two children would wake up and be afraid of seeing him, so he looked anxious.

They were misunderstood by the honest Uncle Guan and his wife, who thought it was Gu Beizhi who didn't mean anything, so they beat him again when they got home. Uncle Guan picked up the big broom for sweeping the yard, "Don't be afraid, Xiaozhou, Uncle Let's find someone surnamed Gu to settle the score!"

In the farce at the village chief's place before, Guan Zhou had already been taken away by Gu Beizhi when Uncle Guan and his wife rushed over.

Second Aunt Guan dragged Guan Zhou to let him into the house, and asked him why he didn't bring the two children with him. She and his man had discussed it just now. Three fathers and sons live here, this year's harvest is good, and they are not afraid of being unable to afford food.

Guan Zhou hurriedly stopped his second uncle, explained it, and took out the money to show the second uncle and aunt, only to convince the two of them.

"Second Uncle, I came here to buy some food, but there is no food at home."
