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

Chapter 4

Gu Beizhi found that Er Bao spoke more eloquently than Da Bao, and his sentences were longer. It seemed that there were some differences between the two brothers.

He kept his arms open, without showing any signs of impatience, he gave Erbao a gentle smile, Guan Zhou refused to approach, Erbao dragged him several times, but he didn't move, and couldn't help but feel anxious, "Dad, let's go together. Play, little dad!"

Guan Zhou dared to approach Gu Beizhi, not only did he not want to approach him, he also didn't want the children to approach him, so he stubbornly stood there and said nothing.

Gu Beizhi sighed inwardly, and instead of forcing him, he took the initiative to stand up and approach him.

Guan Zhou couldn't help but want to step back, but for fear of angering Gu Beizhi, he could only stand in the same place and stop the two children behind him while trembling in defense.

Gu Beizhi walked up to him and picked up Er Bao. Er Bao was lighter than Da Bao, and seemed to be a little top-heavy. Like a big-headed doll, his hair was even more withered.

Unstoppably distressed, Gu Beizhi put Erbao on his shoulders, "Come on, Erbao is also held high, hold steady."

Erbao was trembling like his little father originally, but his father's gentle voice And the warm palm made him less afraid. Sitting on Daddy's shoulder, seeing a lot of things in sight, the novelty also shifted some of his fear.

Gu Beizhi didn't do anything exciting, just put Erbao on his shoulders, walked around Guan Zhou, and then put the child down.

Seeing how Guan Zhou immediately pulled the child over, he knew that it would take a while to get the other party to trust him.

There was no unpleasantness at all, his face always had a gentle smile, "Take the children to eat eggs, eat something to cushion, and then think about what to eat for dinner later."

But he knew that the rice bowl at home was only the bottom of it. Now, there can be at most half a bowl of rice, and rice porridge is not enough.

Dabao and Erbao swallowed softly, but the two adults noticed it, and Guan Zhou felt even more self-blame in his heart.

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.

However, Gu Beizhi stopped him, "One person per person, no need to divide in half."

Guan Zhou glanced at him, and then gave Dabao a whole egg, Dabao happily took the egg and took a bite, chewing it carefully, the fragrance was fragrant. It's like eating some delicious food.

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

Gu Beizhi took the egg, and without saying a word, put it into Erbao's hand, who had been looking at Dabao with envy, "Erbao, don't look at brother, eat the egg, it won't taste good when it's cold."

"Guan Zhou, you Bring some hot water for the child, just eating eggs is a bit dry." He spoke to Guan Zhou as naturally as possible.

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

Dabao ate carefully, not a single bit of slag fell off, he took a sip of water with Guan Zhou's hand, and hurriedly stuffed an egg into his mouth, Erbao didn't eat as carefully as he did, and there were some broken eggs on his face Crumbs, but eat with particular concentration.

Gu Beizhi looked at the two children eating eggs, his eyes were sour and swollen, if he could see the original owner, he would definitely teach him a good lesson!

At the same time, the idea of ​​keeping the two children well fed took root in my heart and became an obsession.

Gu Beizhi knew what Guan Zhou was thinking when he saw that there was only one egg left in the pot, so he divided the egg in half for him, "Next time, one person per person, don't cook less."

Guan Zhou was a little surprised when he saw half an egg that could be eaten in one bite. This was the first time Gu Beizhi had offered him to eat it.

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

Guan Zhou ate half an egg silently, but his anxiety was lessened. It seemed that Gu Bei I really don't want to kill him.

It was not until the two children couldn't help feeling sleepy that they were carried back to the room by Gu Beizhi and put them on the bed to fall asleep, and the two adults had a little time to be alone.

Gu Beizhi and Guan Zhou did not speak, only silence spread, which intensified Guan Zhou's uneasiness. Gu Beizhi sighed, pointed to his head and said, "You almost killed me if you hit me this time."

Guan Zhou looked at him in panic, like a frightened rabbit that couldn't resist, trembling. .

"However, it 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 badly, asked me to apologize to you, and You live a good life, I think your parents are right."

"I will never drink again in the future, and I will never do anything to you and your children. I swear, if I violate this oath, I will not die." Gu Bei Zhi put up three fingers together, speaking very solemnly.

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

Gu Beizhi laughed, "You care about me?"

Guan Zhou stopped talking again. , just a pair of eyes looked at him with unease.

Gu Beizhi always felt that these eyes were very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it, and he was anxious to make Guan Zhou believe him, so he said solemnly, "I'm not talking nonsense, I really swear, I will change it. If you suffer from bad problems, you will work hard to make money to support your family in the future, so that you and your children can be fed and clothed."

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

It's not that he is stupid, but that Gu Beizhi has no need to lie to him.

Even if Gu Beizhi beat him or 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 you, no need to swear."

Gu Beizhi didn't force Guan Zhou to believe him immediately, but talked about another thing, "I always drink, The family has no money, and this is the only thing left, you can see how much food you can buy, it may be a little harder in the past two weeks, and the monthly payment will be fine next month."

He put the only remaining, already less than two taels. The broken silver was handed over to Guan Zhou, thinking that this amount of money would not last for half a month, maybe I would have to borrow money.

Unexpectedly, Guan Zhou put the money back into his hand, "This money can't be moved, it has to be returned to the person in the casino."

Gu Beizhi felt like a thunderbolt from the blue, and his voice was

a little high, "What?" Guan Zhou shuddered. He pursed his lips, his eyes wandered left and right, and he said with a trembling, "You went home after drinking too much the day before yesterday. You came here to get money, and you lost your gambling..."

At this moment, some fragmented memories broke in. Gu Beizhi's mind was full of memories of him going to the casino to gamble with people after he was drunk.

It's only been 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 had really done stealing chickens and dogs, and he was almost sent to prison by the village. I don't know why, but he set his sights on Gu Beizhi five months ago.

When the original owner was sober, he disdained to take care of Wang Ergou, but when he was drunk, he would be fooled by Wang Ergou and go to the casino.

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

It's just that the original owner drank too much three days ago. After being taken to the casino, he lost all his coins. He was also tempted to borrow 200 coins from the casino. The original owner was only willing to borrow so much, even though Wang Ergou kept encouraging him. He, he didn't agree either, and the 200 wen was lost without any accident.

He said that he came home to get the money. The money in the casino was loan sharks. He doubled it in one night. After three days of delay, the original 200 coins had become 800 coins.

When Gu Beizhi came home, he only said that he had lost money, but he didn't say how much he lost. Guan Zhou thought he had lost all of it, and naturally he didn't want him to take all the money. , the food is almost bottomed out, how do the three of them live?

There was the scene of being beaten and counterattacked.

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

It is estimated that he is a bastard who likes to drink and gamble, and in the end he even lost his reputation as a scholar.

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

Guan Zhou accepted the money, no matter what, only money can be confident. With this money, enough to eat for a month.

Gu Beizhi didn't know much about the prices here, but he felt that there was not much money, but he didn't know that it would be impossible for a farmer to spend two taels of silver year-round.

After explaining it to Guan Zhou, he hurried to the town with the money.

If he doesn't go today, he'll have to go now if he has another 200 copper in debt tomorrow. So he hurriedly left the house and ran straight to the town.

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

What he didn't know was that as soon as he went out, Guan Zhou took the money and ran to his second uncle's house.

"Second uncle, second aunt." Guan Zhou was afraid that the two children would wake up, so he looked worried.

They were misunderstood by the honest second uncle Guan and his wife. They thought it was Gu Beizhi who said nothing, so he beat him again when he got home. Uncle Guan picked up the big broom sweeping the yard and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiaozhou, second uncle. Just find the guy named Gu to settle the account!"

In the farce at the village chief's place, when Uncle Guan and his wife rushed over, Guan Zhou had already been taken away by Gu Beizhi. Annoyed, just didn't go.

Second Aunt Guan pulled Guan Zhou to let him into the house, and asked him why he didn't bring the two children too. She and his man had discussed it just now. Although the family didn't have much money, if they squeezed together, they could make Xiao Zhou. The three of the father and son live here, the harvest is good this year, 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 second aunt, only to convince the two of them.

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