He Laoqiao thought of the tragic situation of He Cui'er's family after they were excommunicated, and finally became afraid: "It's my fault. Don't worry, brother, there won't be another time."

Village Chief He snorted coldly: "It won't matter next time. I can just open an ancestral hall and make your whole family a clan. This will save me the trouble of going to the Gu family to apologize to your family."

He Laoqiao's face turned pale when he heard this, and he quickly knelt down and said, "Brother, please help me. I really know I was wrong."

Village Chief He looked at He Laoqiao kneeling down, thinking that he had really realized his mistake, and sighed: "Xiao Shisi, you used to be loyal and honest, and you didn't know these twists and turns. What's wrong now? What's the matter? Well, people have become bad?”

He Laoqiao was told to lower his head.

Village Chief He said: "Xiao Shisi, you know very well how our He family was poor before and how we were bullied. We should cherish our blessings."

He added: "It's true that you want to marry your granddaughter, but you have to use the right method and don't plot against others. You can't plot against others, so why bother?"

He Laoqiao: "I know I was wrong. Brother, please help my family."

Village Chief He did not agree immediately, but remained silent for a cup of tea before saying: "Go and kneel outside the ancestral hall. Kneel until dark before going home. The Qin family and the Gu family must see it, otherwise I will go and give it to you." Even if your family intercedes, their two families won’t accept it.”

He Laoqiao had no choice but to do as he was told.

Gu Dewang quickly told Gu Jinli about He Laoqiao going to kneel at the ancestral hall: "Sister Xiaoyu, the old woodcutter is kneeling outside the He family ancestral hall. His eldest son and several grandsons are also kneeling there. It seems that he knows wrong."

After Gu Defa finished cutting the aphids at home, he also came to help collect the grass. Hearing this, he said: "Brother is wrong. He doesn't know he is wrong, he is afraid of pain."

Gu Jinli smiled and said, "Brother Fa is smart and right. But as long as they know it hurts, that's enough."

Fear of pain can restrain people more than knowing their mistakes.

Gu Dewang glared at Gu Defa: "You talk a lot, hurry up and get to work."

After hearing this, Gu Defa kept playing with the aphids and said to Gu Dewang: "Brother, I didn't help you bake the aphids today."

Then he said: "Mom will be back soon."

One sentence made Gu Dewang jump up and rush home. If I come home and see that his work is not done, I will beat him to death

Gu Jinli looked at Gu Defa and said, "You are a bad student."

Gu Defa said: "My brother is too lazy, so I can let him go home and work."

Gu Jinli: "If you are smart, I will reward you with a pack of roasted chestnuts."

Gu Defa smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Thank you, Sister Xiaoyu."

Mountain chestnuts are sweet and delicious. He likes to eat them most. Hearing this made him work harder.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Gu Jinli and the others finally finished their work and said to Gu Defa: "Go to the entrance of the village and see if the madman has left?"

Gu Defa said: "No, I heard from Haozi's mother on the way here that the lunatic said that he wanted to watch the sunset, and that he had to wait until dark to light a bonfire in the grass and play the harp."

Then he asked Gu Jinli: "Sister Xiaoyu, what is the konghou?"

Gu Jinli: "A musical instrument."

But I was speechless in my heart, that Mr. Zhan was so capable.

Brother Cheng said from the side: "Second sister, why don't we go see him? I'm worried that he will die suddenly."

Staying up until now without sleeping all day and night would really kill someone.

Gu Jinli said: "It's okay to go and have a look, but you can't go see him, and you can't give him medicine, lest he sees you and wants to come to our house."

Brother Cheng said: "What should we do if he dies?"

Gu Jinli: "Lang Nang, who told him to do this?"

Qin Sanlang heard that they always talked about the one named Zhan, so he said to Gu Jinli: "Xiaoyu, it's time to go home and grill the fish."

The sun is going down. If I don't make grilled fish, I won't be able to eat it today.

"Yes, I also want to cook grilled fish for Brother Qin." Gu Jinli told Brother Cheng: "If you are worried, you can take a large group or a small group to see him, but you cannot see him."

After saying that, he cleaned up the account books and took back the remaining money, and then said to Qin Sanlang: "Let's go home and cook grilled fish for you."

Qin Sanlang smiled, took the booklet in her hand and said, "I'll get it for you."

Nowadays, her business is getting bigger and bigger, and she has to read the account books at night.

"Yeah." Gu Jinli responded, taking Xiao Ji and following Qin Sanlang home.

Brother Cheng took a large group and a small group to the entrance of the village.

Gu Defa also followed. Although he was a Buddhist, he also wanted to see what a madman looked like.

As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the village, we saw the lunatic sitting on an oxcart without a hood, singing hymns to the sunset and playing the harp as he sang.

Gu Defa nodded, yes, he was indeed a qualified lunatic, and he did not disappoint.

Brother Cheng's little face twisted together at the sight, but he could still sing poems and play the harp, so he thought he might not die for a while.

Just as he was thinking this, Zhan Er's body suddenly shook and rolled down from the bullock cart.

"Master!" Zhan Er's two young men rushed over to support him and kept shouting.

After cutting the grass in the village, the woman who was about to go home to cook saw her. She was so excited that she almost jumped up and shouted anxiously: "The madman is dead! The madman at the entrance of the village is dead. He sang himself to death." !”

After hearing this, Zhan Er's servant shouted angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? My young master is fine, but he fainted due to fever."

The women in the village retorted: "They all fainted and are still running a high fever. They might die soon."

Brother Cheng: "..."

The second sister is right, these old women in the village are really powerful.

He Dayuan knew that Zhan Er was a guest of Mr. Xia's family, and was afraid that Zhan Er would die at the entrance of the village. He immediately called a few young people, and then drove the village chief's mule cart to send Zhan Er to Xuanhufang for medical treatment in the town.

This Zhan Er seemed to be a rich and noble man, and he must be able to afford a mule cart, but he came in an ox cart. The oxcart was too slow, and He Dayuan was afraid that the man would die before he was delivered to the town, so he had to use the village chief's mule cart to transport him to the town.

However, Zhan Er's vitality was tenacious and he did not die.

After seeing it to him, Dr. Wu said he just had a cold or fever and that he would be fine after taking medicine for a few days.

He Dayuan came back and told Gu Jinli about this: "The young man was not awake when I came back, but his uncle is here..."

Speaking of this, He Dayuan's face twitched: "That uncle of his is also a loser. His nephew fainted from high fever. He actually said that my nephew has my style and I will go there tomorrow." Look at the aphids."

He Dayuan felt that all the family members were sick, his nephew was crazy, and his uncle was even crazier than his nephew.

After hearing this, Gu Jinli nodded and didn't want to pay attention to the Zhan family's affairs: "It's good that he's not dead. Uncle Dayuan, go home quickly. You can take these two grilled fish back to eat. You've worked hard today."

He Dayuan was very happy. After taking the grilled fish, he went home.

Qin Sanlang accompanied Gu Jinli out to see He Dayuan and was unhappy when he saw her giving the grilled fish to He Dayuan.

This grilled fish was originally brought back to him.

Gu Jinli looked at his face and saw that he looked unhappy, so he smiled and said, "Why, do you feel sorry for your grilled fish?"

Qin Sanlang nodded: "Yes. You baked it for me, it's mine."

Gu Jinli smiled: "Look at how stingy you are. Come on, I'll bake a few more for you."
