Zhou Qing couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him, "The jade ring you picked up in the river belongs to that water puppet.
The reason why something happened to you this time is because the water puppet has been pestering you, trying to take back the jade ring. "
Xu Gao suddenly realized that he finally remembered the jade ring he picked up.
He subconsciously reached for his chest.
He looked stunned, why is it gone?
Seeing that he didn't know anything, Zhou Qing had no choice but to continue explaining, "The jade finger and the water puppet were taken away by the Taoist nun.
If the master hadn't hired that Taoist nun for you, your life would really have been decided. "
Although he heard Zhou Qing's explanation, Xu Gao still looked in disbelief. The water puppet wanted his life just because he picked up the jade ring?
Why doesn't he believe it so much?
Seeing the suspicious look on Xu Gao's face, not to mention his eldest brother, even the guards couldn't help but want to beat him up.
Xu Gao didn't want to believe it at first, but seeing everyone looking at him with blame, he had to believe it even if he didn't believe it.
Brother Xu Gao calmed down, but still couldn't help the anger in his heart.
"Let me ask you, if there is nothing missing from you at home, why do you fall in love with that jade ring?"
Brother Xu Gao got really angry the more he thought about it, the jade ring was just an ordinary item, not a valuable thing.
He really couldn't understand why his second brother, who had been accustomed to seeing good things since he was a child, supposedly couldn't get enough of the ring ring, kept wearing it every day.
This time, he was lucky, and the Taoist nun that Master Ning hired for him was very capable, so she was saved.
But if the person invited doesn't have much ability, his life will really be at stake.
If word of this got out, their Xu family would be so short-sighted that they would lose their lives for such a worthless broken finger.
Then their Xu family would be really embarrassed.
Seeing that his eldest brother was so angry, Xu Gao realized that he had indeed done something wrong.
"I know the ring is worthless, and I didn't pick it up because of its price."
On the contrary, he saw that the jade ring was worthless, so he kept it without any psychological burden.
But he didn't expect that it would be such a worthless broken finger that almost killed him.
After a pause, Xu Gao couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he saw everyone waiting for him to explain.
"I saw that Suqin was going to give birth in a month, and I thought that she would definitely have a baby boy. The jade finger ring had a good luster, so I thought about wearing it for a while until the baby was born. I'll let him play with it.
The thumb ring is worthless, so even if it is lost or broken, it won't hurt. "
The guards were all speechless after hearing his explanation.
They thought of many reasons, but they never thought that Xu Gao left the jade ring as a toy for his unborn son.
If they remembered correctly, Xu Gao's wife Liu Suqin was only three months pregnant, right?
He actually thought of preparing toys for his children at this moment?
By treating a jade ring as a toy, is this because you want to raise your son to be a playboy from a young age?
These guards all thought that Xu Gao was acting like a dandy, but Xu Gao's eldest brother was not surprised.
This is all because Xu Gao liked to play with jade finger rings, jade pendants and other accessories at home when he was young.
When he was a child, he was not sensible and did not know that those things were valuable and had no importance when playing with them, so he lost and broke a lot of things.
The Xu family is a distinguished family with many good things. But no matter how many things he had, he couldn't help Xu Gao from playing like that.
After the elders in the family scolded him, they put those things away.
But Xu Gao was young and didn't understand the value of those things at all.
The more his family doesn't let him play, the more he will secretly find it and play with it.
For this reason, he was often scolded when he was a child.
Xu Gao must have remembered these experiences when he was a child, and then he thought of keeping the jade ring finger he picked up and giving it to his son to play with in the future.
The thing was picked up and not valuable. Even if it was broken, he wouldn't feel bad and his son wouldn't have to be scolded.
What Xu Gao didn't expect was that the owner of the jade ring had become a puppet soul, and he almost died because of the ring.
Knowing that the resentful spirit was caused by him, Xu Gao would be so ruined that his intestines would turn green.
The anger was gone, and Yanba chided, "Brother, you are right, I was wrong, I shouldn't take other people's things as my own.
When I feel better, I will go to Xiangu and make amends with that ghost. "
Seeing that he realized his mistake, Brother Xu Gao no longer pressed on about the matter. I believe that after this incident, this kid will definitely remember this lesson and will not do anything wrong again in the future.
After the doctor prescribed medicine to recuperate his body, Brother Xu Gao took him back to Xu Mansion to recuperate.
Xu Gao was saved this time, so he must thank Miss Ling.
Brother Xu Gao did not look down upon Lingchu just because she was a young girl.
Although when he first saw her, he didn't believe that such a young girl could have any real abilities.
But when he knew that Ling Chu was specially invited by Ning Chuyi for Xu Gao, he removed the doubts in his heart.
Brother Xu Gao knew that the commander of the Jin Yiwei was not a simple person.
At such a young age, Ning Chuyi was able to hold the position of commander in the wolf-like Jin Yiwei, not because of the emperor's favor, but because he climbed up step by step based on his true ability.
Such a killing god would never be noticed by him if he didn't have real abilities.
Although Miss Ling is young, the fact that she was invited by Ning Chuyi shows that she is a person of real ability.
When Xu Gao, the eldest brother, knew that Zhou Qing had asked Ling Chu to save his second brother, he promised him a hundred gold coins and did not complain at all.
Although one hundred gold was a lot of money, it was nothing compared to the life of the second son of the Xu family.
Besides, that Miss Ling was a truly capable person, and she was injured in order to save Xu Gao.
That hundred gold was spent without any loss.
In order to thank Ling Chu for saving Xu Gao, his eldest brother not only asked the housekeeper to send the hundred gold to Ling's house, but also prepared a generous gift.
The Xu family did not blame Zhou Qingxu for paying a high price. Instead, they thanked him for not sitting idly by and sent thank-you gifts to the Zhou family and the guards.
The Xu family was very considerate and even sent thank-you gifts to the guards, so Ning Chuyi would not be missed.
Brother Xu Gao prepared a generous gift and personally delivered it to Duke Ning's mansion.
After Ling Chu finished handling Xu Gao's affairs, he returned to Ling's Mansion with all his strength, and immediately started to deal with his injuries. After boiling the medicine and taking it, he fell into a deep sleep.
In the main hall, the second lady curled her lips and said in a weird manner, "Sister-in-law, Sister Chu is really getting more and more unruly. She just hangs out with those unscrupulous people all day long. I don't know what she will do when she comes back." Come and say hello to mother..."
