"That's right."

"At that time, we were all panicking. How can we still pay off the robbery of this batch of goods? I was afraid that the Guo family belonged to Marshal Yuan Ping Xuyuan, but the result was unexpected. These days, everything is peaceful, and there is no news in Wusu City. "

Liu Qiwa came closer and whispered: "The third brother is a smart man, so he naturally knows that what the Guo family is doing is not serious business. I later found out that this has something to do with foreigners and Fengpan City..."

Of course Bao Guowei understands.

What the Guo family did, smuggling arms, was just to make money. It not only oppressed the poor people, but also harmed the interests of the entire current situation. This kind of people are not human anymore.

"Then what is the God-given wealth that brother mentioned?"

"My spies in the city have heard that the Guo family still has a batch of goods going to Fengpan City. The Guo family attaches great importance to it, which shows that this batch of goods is not simple."

"And I think that Marshal Lin from Fengpan City seems a little uneasy, and the friction with the former Marshal in Wu Sucheng is also heating up..."

Liu Qiwa stopped at the right time without saying anything. Bao Guowei naturally knew what he meant.

He had long heard that Marshal Lin in Fengpan City had a "backer" behind him, and if this "backer" came to the fore, only the vast number of poor people in Long Kingdom would suffer.

Although Yuan Pingxu usually pays little attention to military affairs, he has a resolutely negative attitude towards foreigners. It is better to have him as a check and balance than to let Marshal Lin and his family dominate.

Bao Guowei drummed in his heart. His ideal was just to work hard to make money, get ahead, and make a career in the Republic of China.

But now the world is difficult, and all he sees is endless cruelty.

If Lao Bao has him, Bao Guowei, he will naturally protect Lao Bao for the rest of his life. Then who will protect the other people living in other places?

Seeing Bao Guowei's hesitation, Liu Qiwa knew that she was talking too much and had put Bao Guowei in a difficult position.

At this moment, Liu Liumei brought the hot food and drinks.

"Haha. Third brother, I'm happy today, let's not talk about this! Come on, drink!"

Bao Guowei waved his hand and said, "I won't drink anymore. I'm a little tired. Let's drink some tea."

"Yes! This is meat wine. Drinking too much will hurt your stomach. Let Brother Guowei drink some hot tea to warm up!"

Liu Liumei's voice, as soft as a bell, made the tight strings in their hearts relax.

"Haha! Sixth sister, why are you turning your elbows outward! Why aren't you facing your brother?"

"Brother Guowei, that's my brother too!"

"Now that I have a new brother, I don't want my old brother anymore. If I have a sweetheart in the future, why don't I just kick me out!"

Liu Liumei got angry, raised her eyebrows and pouted her mouth.

"Brother! Brother Guowei is here, what are you talking about?"

Liu Qiwa looked at Liu Liumei's shy look. After so many years, he naturally understood this sister. Who wouldn't be confused after seeing Bao Guowei's young hero?

"Hey! You can't say that. How about I match you two? You and Brother Guowei are not outsiders, so that's all you can say!"

"Liu Qiwa! You are not allowed to say any more."

Liu Liumei suddenly blushed with embarrassment, her face was as plump as a pink cherry.

Seeing this, Bao Guowei picked up the wine bowl and drank half of it. Originally, he didn't want to drink, but Liu Liumei looked a bit like "Liu Liumei", which made people mouth-watering, beautiful and delicious, and was just the right drink.

"Brother, you are joking." Bao Guowei said with a bitter smile.

"Liu Mei! Your brother Guowei is going down the mountain tomorrow." Liu Qiwa looked at Liu Mei and naturally knew what she was thinking, so she wanted to give her a push.

"Ah?" When Liu Liumei heard this, she exclaimed. She subconsciously grabbed Bao Guowei's arm and asked, "You are leaving so soon? Don't you want to stay for a few more days?"

Bao Guowei saw her face glowing red. He was a little drunk himself and didn't dare to look at her anymore.

Liu Liumei let go of her hand.

Bao Guowei said helplessly: "If I have the chance, I will definitely come again!"

"Okay." Liu Liumei turned away and stopped looking at him.

"Sixth sister! If you have anything to say, just say it. Tian Erwa and I are in charge of the house on Housu Mountain. You have nothing to do with us. You don't have to worry about us..."

Bao Guowei heard that there was something in Liu Qiwa's words, but he didn't think much about it.

Liu Liumei was startled, and after a moment, she seemed to have made up her mind.

"Brother Guowei! Take me with you, I want to study, I want to go to school!"

Bao Guowei was stunned and confused for a moment.

"Haha! Liu Liumei has not liked female celebrities since she was a child, and has always liked reading and writing. But since Grandpa Liu passed away, the mountains are full of rough people. Where can I read?" Liu Qiwa explained.

"But……"

The words came to Bao Guowei's lips and he didn't know how to speak.

After hearing this, Liu Liumei burst into tears. The pear blossoms were raining, and I felt pity for her.

"But, brother! You can rest assured when you entrust Sixth Sister to me?"

"Why can't you worry? She's upset if she follows me. Why don't I go out with you and have some adventures? Don't tell me! Even if you ask Sixth Sister to bring you foot-washing water, I'm afraid she will be willing to do it!"

Liu Liumei wiped away her tears and gave Liu Qiwa a blank look.

"Brother Guowei! As long as you can take me to school and let me stay with you, I will do anything!"

These words were spoken with such sincerity that Bao Guowei thought it was a confession just from the tone of his voice.

He couldn't bear it, but he also knew that his desire to study could not be eradicated.

"Okay. It's just that you follow me to the school. The world outside is not as simple as on Housuan Mountain. The so-called rivers and lakes are not about fighting and killing, but about human nature. You need to understand that the world is dangerous."

Liu Liumei burst into tears and laughed.

"Okay! As long as I stay with brother Guowei, I'm not afraid of anything!"

As soon as these words came out, although they were spoken with emotion, whether they were placed in the ears of Bao Guowei or Liu Qiwa, they felt a bit strange...

After sending Liu Liumei away, Bao Guowei and Liu Qiwa both made a tacit understanding and did not mention the "God-given wealth".

Fierce!

Bao Guowei realized something.

"Hey! Brother Liu, what is the origin of the Guo family in Wu Sucheng that you mentioned?"

"What's the meaning?"

"What is the name of the young master of the Guo family in Wu Sucheng?!"

Seeing Bao Guowei's sudden excitement, Liu Qiwa did not dare to joke or be careless.

He pondered for a moment and said: "It seems to be, what is it called...pure or something."

"Guo Chun?" Bao Guowei asked tentatively.

"Yes! It's Guo Chun!"

Bao Guowei was stunned, pondered for a moment, and replied firmly: "Master Liu, in this case, I have to join in this deal!"



The next day, fish belly white appeared in the east.

The weather today is good, not windy, and the sun is shining. It is a rare good weather, and it is a good day to cross the river.

Liu Qiwa and Tian Erwa repeatedly tried to persuade Bao Guowei to stay, but Bao Guowei had already decided to leave. When they saw this, they stopped trying to stay.

Liu Liumei had packed her luggage early and was waiting for Bao Guowei. When she left Housuan Mountain this time, not only was she not at all sad, but she was smiling like a flower, for fear that others would not know the joy in her heart.

When Liu Qiwa saw this, she couldn't help but hold her forehead.

"This little girl, when she has a sweetheart, she completely forgets about her brother!"
