Chapter 32: Embrace

Chapter 32 Embrace

Gu Jiao had never shared a bed with someone in her previous life, even a female roommate. She thought she would be a little awake, but she fell asleep in that reassuring breath after a while.

She went to see Zhou Gong, but Xiao Liulang did not fall asleep so quickly.

He looked at Gu Jiao who was lying beside him. The thin snow light fell on her face through the window paper. She was lying on her side, the half of her face with the birthmark was pressed underneath.

She is really afraid of the cold, her small face is flushed with cold, her eyelashes are very long, her facial features are exquisite, if there is no birthmark, she should be a beautiful and refined girl.

Inexplicably, Xiao Liulang's heart flashed with regret.

But soon, he frowned again, wiping this emotion from the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Liulang's sleeping phase was excellent, and he was almost motionless all night.

Gu Jiao is also pretty good. Apart from getting closer and closer to Xiao Liulang, he hugs Xiao Liulang with his hands and feet together, and his small head rests on Xiao Liulang's shoulders. There really is nothing else.

Gu Jiao fell asleep until dawn, and when she woke up, Xiao Liulang was already up and was sitting by the window reading a book.

The sun shines through the window paper, reflecting his jade-like handsome face. I don't know if it is Gu Jiao's illusion, it feels like he blushes a little.

"You are awake." Xiao Liulang greeted Gu Jiao solemnly, but did not look at Gu Jiao on the bed.

"Well, awake, early." Gu Jiao rubbed her eyes and gave a small yawn. She had just woke up, she was still dazed, and she unconsciously had a lazy little milky voice.

Early in the morning, who is a normal man who can stand this?

Xiao Liulang only felt his chest rise, and he almost stood up: "I'm going to buy breakfast!"

After she said, she opened the door and went out, leaving only Gu Jiao scratching her head with a bewildered expression.

The snow stopped in the middle of the night, and the sun is particularly good today.

Because the college was closed today, after breakfast, the two hired a mule to return to the village.

When passing by the village entrance, I heard the folks who were fetching water by the ancient well talking: It snowed suddenly yesterday, and several people who returned to the village at night were injured. There were also people in the next village who dumped the mule cart into the gutter. Half-life fell.

Xiao Liulang thought of hiring a car to return to the village last night. If she hadn’t offered to stay at the inn for one night, maybe they had also suffered an accident.

Xiao Liulang has no idea what to say in this meeting.

After all...this is the third time that she has avoided a catastrophe.

The two returned home.

The old lady got up and was sitting in the main room sulking.

Yesterday Gu Jiao thought that the matter would end very early, and she and Xiao Liulang could rush back before the snowfall, so they only left a lunch in the pot. Unexpectedly, the masters of the academy would be so involved and pester Xiao Liulang. Asked about the heavy snow.

In order to avoid the bad luck in the dream, she had to drag Xiao Liulang to stay overnight in the town.

The old lady doesn’t know how to burn. It was cold steamed buns that I ate last night, and it was cold steamed buns that I ate this morning. My teeth are almost broken!

Gu Jiao was quite puzzled, you said that you are a poor old lady, why can't you burn? Are you the old lady of a big family, or a queen mother?

Gu Jiao silently took out a pack of candied fruit and a box of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes: "Allow you to eat two more today."

Old lady: "No way! Five!"

Gu Jiao: "Three."

Old lady: "Deal!"

The old lady held the candied fruit and the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, turned her back, and started eating.

The arrest of Gu Dashun and Zhou’s Liu’s had already spread in the village, and even the neighboring village had come to watch the show. They didn’t know how this matter had anything to do with Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao, so they all ran to Gu’s house. The old house inquires about news.

At noon, the two catchers came to the door. They were here to find Gu Jiao.

It turned out that after Zhou and Liu were arrested and sent to the yamen, they honestly explained the origin of the silver under severe interrogation: it fell from the person who fought with the little fool, and they became greedy for a while before the little fool came back. I went back to the village with money before.

"Ah, it turned out to be like this. I said why I didn't see the two aunts' people when I returned." Gu Jiao said with a daze.

Catching quickly looked at him: "Why are you fighting?"

Gu Jiao said coldly: "He hit me! Bullied me! He even scolded me!"

I was hit or scolded by someone, so I chased people with a sickle and chopped down a few streets. Girl, you are a hero.

For someone else to do this, the arresters are afraid that they will doubt it, but they have learned from Zhou and Liu that Gu Jiao is a fool, and the behavior of a fool cannot be judged by common sense.

Therefore, even when they got here, no one suspected that Gu Jiao had deliberately squatted there and waited for the rabbit, and deliberately drove the thief away, leaving the money for the Zhou family to greedy. Even Zhou and Liu thought that everything was just an accident.

Only Xiao Liulang, who vaguely felt that everything was a coincidence.

"That person may be a thief, what happened to him in the end?" Catch fast.

"He ran away." Gu Jiao spread her hands.

"Do you remember his appearance?" Chakuai asked again.

"He looks... um..." Gu Jiao recalled and gestured. Another painter who was arresting Yamen, he drew the thief's appearance, "Is that right?"

"Well..." Gu Jiao frowned.

At this time, Xiao Liulang came out with a portrait.

Gu Jiao’s eyes lit up: "Yes! This is the person!"

Quickly exchanged an awkward little look with the painter. Suddenly the dignified Yamen painter could not paint a student. Is there a feeling that his job has been smashed?

After getting the portrait, Yamen quickly solved the case.

However, Zhou and Liu were not immediately released by the Yamen, because when the Yamen arrested them quickly to the Gu family and asked them where the money came from, they vowed to insist that they were selling mountain products by themselves.

The huge amount, coupled with lying and refusing to pay, properly constituted the crime of embezzlement, and one person was fined twenty taels of silver and beaten up to thirty dollars.

As for Gu Dashun, his wife and second aunt made such a scandal, and his family style was not correct, and he was also nailed to the pillar of shame.
