Du Yanbo saw Gu Yanchuan and stepped forward quickly, "Le'an, what happened?"

Seeing that Du Yanbo was very guilty, Gu Yanchuan thought that he would inform Du Yanbo after the house was finished and moved out. At this time, he didn't expect to meet Du Yanbo here, he hesitated and couldn't explain why.

Du Yanbo didn't want any estrangement between the two of them, so he decided to change the topic, "I heard that Le'an has already found a house?"

Gu Yanchuan's eyes became round instantly, and he stammered and asked, "Senior brother, senior brother, do you know?"

"When you come to the government office to do business, if there is something impenetrable, if someone knows you, they will naturally tell me."

"Brother, I wanted to wait until the house was finished before I would tell you. But you still found out."

The carpenter who stood aside and was ignored by the two interrupted their conversation, "I said Boss Gu, are you going to take off this plaque or not?"

"You take me to see."

Du Yanbo pulled Gu Yanchuan aside and asked, "Did you encounter any problems?"

Gu Yanchuan nodded and explained: "When the carpenter was about to take off the plaque, a mother and daughter came, crying that this is their house. If they took off the plaque, they were going to smash their heads on the outer wall to death. I'm going to have a look .”

"I'm with you!"

Just as Gu Yanchuan was about to refuse, Du Yanbo immediately said, "Le'an, don't be strangers to me."

Hearing this, Gu Yanchuan couldn't refuse, and took Du Yanbo to Zhu's house together.

When we arrived, there was a pair of mother and daughter sitting at the door. The old mother was crying, while the daughter was silently wiping away her tears.

"Damn it! You actually sold our house! Damn it! It's a terrible death!! Oh, how will this old woman and my daughter live?!" The old woman cried and patted her legs. , old tears.

Gu Yanchuan got out of the carriage, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, "Old mother, don't cry, you go into the room and tell me what happened."

The old woman looked at Gu Yanchuan and stopped crying, "Are you the one who bought the house?"

"Yes. I bought it."

The old woman slapped her legs and muttered: "Then you are not a good person! Ah, the bad guys are in power!"

Gu Yanchuan thought he was well-bred, but he had never seen such a fight before, it was unreasonable.It was Du Yanbo who was at the side who couldn't stand it anymore, stepped forward and said: "Old mother, I will judge for you whether it is true or not. Sitting here is useless, why don't you sit down and make it clear?"

"You, you are an official?" The old woman hugged Du Yanbo's leg and shouted: "My lord! You must be the master of the women!"

Under Du Yanbo's persuasion, everyone finally entered the house and settled down in the hall.

The old woman's daughter seemed to be terrified of being afraid, and kept hiding behind the old woman.And the woman was chattering about the ins and outs of the matter.

It turns out that this house is indeed Li Yuan's male owner, but he is married to Zhu's family.So this plaque says "Zhu Mansion".

When the old man of the Zhu family was alive, he was also a businessman. He traveled the streets and alleys, and saved his life's money to buy a Zhuangzi and a house.It's a pity that Mrs. Zhu failed to give birth to a son for Mr. Zhu.Mrs. Zhu also asked Mr. Zhu to take a concubine, but the couple had a very good relationship, and Mr. Zhu didn't want to take a concubine, so they finally decided to find a son-in-law for the only daughter.

At that time, Mr. Zhu's family was still good. It seems that after looking around, he chose Li Yuan, who passed the exam as a scholar.Li Yuan's family background is average, but he has high eyesight and low hands. He always thinks that he is so talented that he will hit the sky sooner or later.Mr. Zhu was not very satisfied with Li Yuan at first, but Li Yuan was a good-looking person with a sweet mouth. Miss Zhu's family who hadn't communicated with foreigners much, couldn't resist it.Mr. Zhu had no choice but to compromise and agree.

When Mr. Zhu was alive, Li Yuan was still doing very well. He also greeted Ms. Zhu with care, and gradually everyone relaxed, and some family financial matters were left to Li Yuan.Now that Li Yuan had money in his hands, he didn't put his mind on the imperial examinations any more. Instead, he ate, drank and had fun with those idle boys and buddies, but he didn't dare to be too bold at this time.

But who would have thought that after Mr. Zhu's death, Li Yuan would get worse.And Ms. Zhu couldn't control her husband, she shed tears every day.It's fine for Li Yuan to eat, drink and have fun, but recently he has become addicted to gambling.

Gambling was a matter of ten games and nine losses. In the end, Li Yuan owed a large sum of money outside, and the old lady Zhu raised a large sum of money and finally paid it off. It can be said that the family's wealth was exhausted, leaving only this house and a manor.Fortunately, Mr. Zhu was on guard against Li Yuan and did not tell Li Yuan about the manor.So it is estimated that this time Li Yuan owed a large amount of money outside again, so he put his thoughts on the house.After getting the money from the house, he thought that he had got all the money that should be taken, so he ran away.

After listening to Mrs. Zhu's words, Gu Yanchuan felt uncomfortable. He bought this house with his own money. Although the procedures were carried out according to the normal procedures, the house indeed belonged to him. But when he saw the mother and daughter, he never From a moral point of view, it is not good to own the house.Du Yanbo took a look at Gu Yanchuan's dilemma, and comforted him: "Old Madam Zhu, don't be in a hurry. I will send someone to chase after Li Yuan and his money, and the specific matters will be determined after Li Yuan is arrested and brought to justice."

Min Jingguan, upon hearing Du Yanbo's words, Mrs. Zhu jumped off the chair, knelt down in front of Du Yanbo, and kowtowed her thanks.

If it wasn't for Gu Yanchuan, these civil disputes should not have been handled by Du Yanbo, but since it involved Le'an, Du Yanbo would never stand idly by.

Due to Du Yanbo's urging, the efficiency of the officials in charge of public security in the government office has suddenly increased a lot.Li Yuan's portrait was posted at the gate of the city and at the pier, and the subordinate counties and districts cooperated with each other.Within a few days, Li Yuan, who was about to escape by boat, and his concubine raised outside were caught at the wharf of a county town under the Sanqing Mansion.

Du Yanbo asked the Yacha to bring Mrs. Zhu's mother and daughter to the Yamen, and notified Gu Yanchuan to come and listen together.

When Mrs. Zhu saw Li Yuan kneeling on the ground, regardless of etiquette, she rushed forward and beat Li Yuan vigorously, "You kill a thousand swords! How could you do such a beast? You sold the house, and it's up to me!" Where are you and Huaner!"

Li Yuan is not a kind person, he couldn't help Mrs. Zhu beat her, pushed her away, and roared: "Don't I have my share in that house? Why can't I sell it!" Then he pointed at Miss Zhu , "And you!! I'm in my thirties, and I don't have a daughter! I'm not allowed to take a concubine! Do you want me to have no children or grandchildren?"

Hearing these words, Mrs. Zhu was trembling with anger, "You, you bastard! Ever since you married Huan'er, what did you eat, wear, and study? Didn't my Zhu family bring it out? Ben Just marrying into my Zhu family, how can I give birth to someone with a different surname to inherit my family's wealth!"

After finishing speaking, the two cursed at each other.

Fortunately, Du Yanbo came in time to stop this farce.

"Old Madam Zhu, 500 taels of silver were found from Li Yuan, and they have already spent the remaining 100 taels. I have also discussed with Boss Gu. If you want money, you can make up the remaining taels with You, if you still insist on wanting the house, then return the silver." Du Yanbo had already sought Gu Yanchuan's opinion in advance, and Gu Yanchuan put forward this opinion out of moral responsibility.

Mrs. Zhu knelt on the ground and kowtowed, pointing at Li Yuan tremblingly, "Master Du, I just want to ask, how is this bastard sentenced?"

"Old Madam Zhu, Li Yuan will be imprisoned for three years and will return the money he spent afterward."

"Thank you, my lord, for making decisions for the people!" After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhu took Miss Zhu and kowtowed three times, and then said: "Master Du, I want to discuss some matters with Boss Gu alone, I wonder if it is possible?"

Du Yanbo nodded, and signaled his subordinates to lead them into the inner hall.

Mrs. Zhu walked up to Gu Yanchuan, bent down and bowed.Gu Yanchuan hurriedly helped her up, "Old madam, I can't bear your courtesy."

"How can Mr. Gu not afford it? I know what Mr. Du proposed, so it's your intention." Mrs. Zhu was able to create such a large family business with Mr. Zhu, what an old lady waiting for nothing.Then she went on to say, "Actually, I have already discovered that the beast has such thoughts, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. In fact, before the old man passed away, he also left us a house in the country. This time, I brought my little daughter Go check the situation, the family members over there are still there, and they are still taking care of them."

"What does the old lady mean?"

"I think that since this house has been sold to Mr. Gu, it means that this house is destined for you. The little girl is introverted. I plan to take the little girl to live in the countryside."

"Thank you, old lady, for making it happen." Gu Yanchuan admired the old lady's foresight.

Just as Gu Yanchuan was about to surrender, Mrs. Zhu stretched out her hand to hold Gu Yanchuan's gift, "But I still have an unsolicited request. I don't know if Mr. Gu needs the manor? Or if Mr. Gu's friends do. The manor is too far away from the old house. It’s easy to manage. I’m going to sell it together, get some silver and go to the countryside to buy a few more acres of land, collect some rent, and live.”

When Gu Yanchuan heard that there was still a manor, it seemed that his winemaking business could be carried out, and his eyes seemed to be blinded, but he still held back the joy in his heart, and asked in a steady voice: "I don't know where the manor is? Can you take it with you?" I'll go and have a look, if it's possible, I'm very willing."

"That would be great! There are too many things to do today, is Mr. Gu free tomorrow?"

"it is good!"

Although this episode brought some troubles to Gu Yanchuan, thanks to Du Yanbo's help, the matter was resolved satisfactorily, and there was such an unexpected joy.So overjoyed, Gu Yanchuan invited Du Yanbo to a restaurant for a meal.

The dinner table.

Gu Yanchuan picked up the wine glass, "Brother, thank you for your help this time, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do. I respect you by doing first!" After finishing speaking, he drank it down in one gulp.

"Le'an, why do you and I say such polite words? Could it be that if I encounter this problem, you will just stand by and watch?" Du Yanbo rubbed his glass, and just took a shallow taste of the wine.

Gu Yanchuan became more courageous after drinking, and said excitedly: "If senior brother is in trouble, as long as he can help senior brother, even if I have my skin and bones peeled off, I won't cry out for pain!"

Du Yanbo looked at the passionate Gu Yanchuan, lowered his head and smiled, "I only hope that the friendship between Le'an and me can be as it is today."

The two of them ate happily this time. Although the wine at this time was brewed and the alcohol content was not high, Gu Yanchuan was not good at wine. After a few glasses, he was already groggy and talking nonsense.

Du Yanbo patted Gu Yanchuan's face, and called softly: "Le'an, Le'an."

"Huh? Uh, hehe, it's Senior Brother Du!"

It looked like he was drunk, Du Yanbo shook his head helplessly, pulled, hugged, and carried Gu Yanchuan on his back.

Listening to Gu Yanchuan nagging in my ear, "Brother, we, we want to be good brothers for a lifetime! Let's travel together and eat delicious food together. Hehehe..."

Du Yanbo's heart was full of emotions, Gu Yanchuan's youthful heart was pure and innocent, which he could not understand best, but because of his father's few words, he alienated him, hurt himself and hurt Le'an.

Du Yanbo supported Gu Yanchuan, and slowly said to Gu Yanchuan who was already in a coma, "Le'an, if there is peace in the world and the people live and work in peace and contentment, I will let go of everything and fight the sword with you."
