Mr. Zhou is a typical image of a landlord and a wealthy man. After taking off his coat with a big belly, he is as fat as a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
Seeing his housekeeper barging in, Mr. Zhou glanced at his wives and concubines, feeling a little displeased.
"Old Li Tou, what's wrong with you? You stayed up in the middle of the night and broke into my room."
"Don't you see that the master is getting ready to do business?"
"The sky won't fall. Why can't I say tomorrow? Do you have to choose a time like this? It's not eye-catching!"
Normally, Butler Li would have wised up and backed down.
But today, instead of leaving, he grabbed Mr. Zhou's arm even more anxiously. He was almost dying of anxiety, "Master, please go out with me and have a look. It is said that the hurtful boy did not hurt you at all." Take it seriously!"
"What? Hurt someone?"
As soon as he heard that someone was injured, Mr. Zhou's face became a little ugly, "Who is it? He has the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard!"
"You dare to hurt even my people, you are so brave!"
"Take me to see what's going on!"
Master Zhou walked out behind Butler Li, and his wives and concubines also followed closely.
I want to watch the excitement.
The rest of the servants and maids gathered around in circles, and when they saw Mr. Zhou approaching, they all moved out of the way.
In the middle of the crowd, two people were kneeling. One had his hand wrapped in linen, and a doctor was applying medicine to him.
The other man was not injured, but his face was filled with fear and he was clearly frightened.
Mr. Zhou’s eyebrows furrowed, “Aren’t these the two sons of Lao Li Tou?”
"Why are you injured for no apparent reason and why are you kneeling here?"
"Tell me, what happened?"
Li Da was already very weak and speechless, so he glanced at Li Er hurriedly.
Li Er trembled, as if he was still afraid of what Gu Long had done. He nodded quickly and said, "Mr. Zhou, this is what happened..."
After listening to Li Er's narration, Mr. Zhou threw the crutch in his hand to the ground with a bang, and said angrily: "How unreasonable, how unreasonable! This idiot named Gu Long actually dares to eat my fish?"
"It's okay to eat my fish, but I'll chop you two up like this!"
"Crazy! I think he is really crazy!"
Mr. Zhou was furious to the extreme, his beard was stretched with anger, and his eyes were full of anger.
It seemed that he wanted to skin Gu Long alive.
Seeing that Mr. Zhou was really angry, Li Er hurriedly added jealousy and said: "Mr. Zhou, you don't know how arrogant that kid is!"
"We told him that if he dares to steal your fish, he will definitely pay the price with blood! But guess what he said?"
Mr. Zhou's eyes were gloomy and he asked with a dark face: "What did he say?"
Li Er put on an exaggerated gesture and shouted: "He said, let alone Master Zhou sending a few servants over, he didn't take it seriously. Even if Master Zhou went to trouble him in person, he still wanted to kill him." You, I’ll kill you!”
"In his eyes, you are just a dog. You can use it however you want, but you don't dare to bite him!"
Although he knew that Li Er was probably adding fuel to his jealousy, Mr. Zhou's expression became extremely ugly.
After all, the servants around him were all looking at him.
As a master, what if he loses face in front of the servants?
Zhou Zhengguang gritted his teeth and said, "Tomorrow, take more than thirty servants with you, master, and I to find that boy!"
"I want to see if this kid is a god from heaven. How dare he be so arrogant and domineering!"
"I will never let him go until his skin is peeled off!"
Seeing that Zhou Zhengguang was furious, Li Da and Li Er looked at each other and saw the hint of success in each other's eyes.
Gu Long, you boy, just wait to die!
Early the next morning.
Zhou Zhengguang led a large group of people and set off in a large formation, sitting in sedan chairs.
As a small landowner, his sedan chair was made of ordinary wood, which was not as good as those of people with status in the government.
But this scene also attracted many farmers to follow, wanting to see the excitement.
The other side.
Gu Long and others had just woken up when a little girl from next door ran over with a very frightened expression.
"Qing'er, come out, come out quickly!"
Liu Qing'er walked out bleary-eyed and limping, with a confused look on her face, "Bao'er, what's wrong with you?"
"What are you calling me for so early in the morning?"
Bao'er is the youngest concubine of the man next door. She is only eighteen years old. She looks very cute. Her eyes are like Liu Qing'er's. Just standing there without saying a word will inevitably make people pity her.
She played very well with Liu Qing'er. When Liu Qing'er couldn't afford to eat, she would secretly take out the dried carrots, pickled cabbage and rice at home so that Liu Qing'er could eat.
So, hurry up and report the news today.
"Someone from the village came back and said that you ate the fish from Mr. Zhou's house!"
"Li Da and Li Er went to tell Master Zhou about this. Master Zhou took the two of them and more than thirty servants and rushed towards our village in full swing!"
"Just wait and see, they will arrive when the sun is about to set, so run quickly!"
As soon as Liu Qing'er heard this, her expression became very ugly, and her little face was filled with panic, "What should I do!"
"Once Mr. Zhou brings someone here, he will definitely punish us to death."
"I...where can we run?"
Bao'er's eyes were complicated, and he sighed and said: "Dafeng's road guide system is to prevent us common people from wandering around. Without the road guide given by the village chief, if you go to any village, you will be arrested by the locals. "
"Either go to jail or do corvee service."
"All in all, the end is tragic... Qing'er, now you can only run into the deep mountains and wild forests, hide in them, and try to survive! This is the only way out!"
Liu Qing'er was almost dying of anxiety. As soon as she turned around, she bumped into Gu Long who was coming towards her.
Next to Gu Long was Liu Qingqiu, who was also in a complicated mood.
Seeing Gu Long, Bao'er did not hide the disgust on his face and stared at Gu Long coldly, "Are you awake too? It seems that you must have heard what I just said to Qing'er."
"Huh, now that you heard it, why don't you take them and escape into the deep mountains and forests?"
"Only by escaping into such a deserted place can you have a chance to survive. Otherwise, you can only wait to die!"
Gu Long touched his chin in confusion, "Run away? Why should I run away?"
"Isn't he just a wealthy landlord? Isn't he just thirty servants? What is there to be afraid of?"
"Girl Bao'er, just keep your heart in your stomach. Not only was I able to take them to eat fish yesterday, but I also want to eat fish today! How tender and juicy is the taste of fish soup and fish meat? Why do you have to go hungry? Where to eat?”
Bao'er looked at Gu Long as if he were a dead man, and pushed Liu Qing'er hard, "Qing'er, your man is really crazy!"
"Hurry up and pack your bags. I'll go home and prepare some dry food for you two to eat on the road."
"I know there is a mountain nearby that is not inhabited. You..."
Gu Long stopped in front of Bao'er and said with a smile: "Just go back to your home and watch your excitement."
"Don't talk about one Zhou Zhengguang coming, there are ten of them. I think it would be easy to destroy them."
The whole courtyard was in dead silence!
The three women stared at Gu Long blankly, as if they had seen a madman.
