The Epic Revenge Chapter 973: Stay Alive
Chapter 973
The incident of "Goddess Burning People" started with a bang, but afterward it seemed like a knife across the water without a trace.
Like that fire, it was terrifying to burn, but the fire was extinguished, the ashes were buried in the ground, and the smoke dissipated, leaving only an incomprehensible trace.
No one said anything in the countryside, everyone kept it a secret, for fear of punishment from the gods; no one said it in the city, because the newspapers had no interest in this matter, and soon new gossip filled their lives, making them forget their relationship with Little things that don't matter.
Gu Qingzhou met Gouzi's sister Si Ya.
Si Ya was deceived by the protector and was going to make her a concubine.
Gouzi's parents were fascinated by the Goddess Sect at the time, and they really donated their daughter for free, and they didn't allow Gouzi to make trouble.
It can be seen how terrible it is for cults to deceive people!
Now that she's awake, Gouzi's parents hugged their daughter and cried, but Si Ya didn't want to pay attention to her parents.
Si Ya knelt at Gu Qingzhou's feet: "Madam, give me a bowl of rice, I don't want to go home anymore."
Gouzi is extremely loyal to Gu Qingzhou, and his sister is just as simple and honest as him.
Gu Qingzhou asked Gouzi's parents: "The children stay in my house to work, do you rest assured? I haven't been in Taiyuan for a long time. Next year or the year after, they can find other ways to make a living. I don't think so. will treat your children badly."
Gouzi's parents hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Goddess, you are willing to give them a bowl of rice, that is their creation!"
They are willing to keep their children with Gu Qingzhou.
Gu Qingzhou is very clear that no parent wants to be separated from their children, but not everyone has a way to survive in the countryside. They always have to feed their children.
So Gouzi and his sister Si Ya worked on Gu Qingzhou's side.
"Don't call it a goddess, that's all a lie. I'll call it my wife in the future." Gu Qingzhou said.
The siblings said yes.
Gu Qingzhou called Mrs. Xin, the steward, and asked her to take the two children down. The wages were the same as ordinary servants, and she bought them two winter clothes at the same time.
After finishing the family affairs, Gu Qingzhou went to the city again.
An inn in the city has been contracted by Gu Qingzhou.
The people who live in this inn are the troupe. Although the inn is simple, it has a warm kang, hot dishes and hot meals, and the doors and windows are not ventilated, which is much better than a broken temple.
Gu Qingzhou went to see the class teacher.
She gave the troupe a sum of money and said, "Everyone in the troupe belongs to you, and I won't interfere. You arrange people to do things for me, and I can only thank you.
This money is given to you, you can rent a small theater by yourself, or you can get rid of these people, and live a happy life for a few years, whatever you want. "
After all, Gu Qingzhou pushed five small yellow croakers to him.
The class leader's hand trembled, almost unable to hold the gold bar.
This young lady is really generous.
The actors are all low-key, and the class leader never imagined that after the success of the matter, he could really get the gratitude of the nobles, and such a huge sum of money.
He thought that the money he had given before, the rented inn, was all the kindness.
The class leader doesn't complain, which is good.
They did nothing but untied the man, stole it from the door panel under the firewood pile, put the dead pig on it, and hid behind and cried.
Really, it's just a simple and extreme trick.
The smoke looked strong, but it was caused by wet wood, and the fire wasn't really strong.
"Young Mistress...No no, goddess, you are truly a living Buddha!" The class leader was grateful.
Gu Qingzhou said: "Don't call the goddess, let's call it the young lady, I'm happy to hear it."
The class leader quickly said yes.
After Gu Qingzhou left, he was not afraid that others would find the troupe. After all, the people who burned to death at the time had nothing to do with them. Even if they recruited them, what would happen if they couldn't find any witnesses?
For those who were "burned to death", their families received a large sum of money, and they refused to hand them over. Anyone who dares to find someone will surely be beaten to death.
Gu Qingzhou does not believe in money, but knows the meaning of such bitter and cold weather, a bowl of hot soup, and a warm kang to people.
Without Gu Qingzhou's money, they wouldn't even be able to provide enough food and clothing.
Ordinary people are kind, all they want is to fill their stomachs and not freeze to death.
Gu Qingzhou gave the class leader money and did not interfere in the troupe, but she was also curious about where the class leader would spend her money.
So she sent someone to watch from a distance.
"...Just to see where they go. No matter what they do or where they go, don't stop them." Gu Qingzhou said.
The lieutenant said yes.
Three days later, the adjutant told Gu Qingzhou: "The class teacher has made new cotton-padded clothes and shoes for the whole class, rented a large yard, and rented a theater."
Gu Qingzhou smiled.
In this world, the vast majority of ordinary people are kind.
Like the head of the troupe, he can give the actors a few dollars to make a living, and he takes the rest of the money, enough to live happily ever after.
But he didn't.
He knew very well that those orphaned actors would not be able to make a living without him, and they would starve to death.
Knowing that Liyuan's current business loses a lot of money, and knowing that running the troupe is hard and not profitable, the troupe still bears his responsibility.
He didn't dismiss the poor.
The troupe has been re-run, and everyone will have a meal in the future.
The troupe no longer has the opportunity to live a luxurious life, but the troupe of more than a dozen people will not be reduced to the streets. They have a home.
When beating and scolding the disciples, the class leader is never merciful; when criticizing their income, the class leader also looks hideous. But when there is a way to survive, the class leader will not abandon them.
Gu Qingzhou often thinks that people are very complicated, and it is difficult to describe the situation just by distinguishing between good and bad.
"A few people are arranged to go to the theatre every month to give a performance and a few dollars." Gu Qingzhou said to the adjutant.
The adjutant didn't know the reason, and asked: "Sneak it, or..."
"Secretly, they are ordinary guests." Gu Qingzhou smiled, "If there is a good song, remember to tell me, and I will also go to the show."
The lieutenant said yes.
Gu Qingzhou stretched.
The matter of the goddess religion is completely over; the reform of Buddhism and Taoism has not yet begun.
But these have nothing to do with Gu Qingzhou, and she distanced herself from it.
Gu Qingzhou is starting to prepare for the Chinese New Year.
The first New Year in Taiyuan Mansion was also the first New Year after she and Si Xingpei got married. Gu Qingzhou needed a grand occasion.
She didn't handle it before, so she went to ask Ye Shan for advice.
"Why don't you come to our house for the New Year?" Ye Shan said, "It's so crowded."
"You have enough family members, and there is no shortage of us." Gu Qingzhou smiled, "Just tell me what I need to prepare."
Ye Shan nodded.
Gu Qingzhou got the list from Ye Shan, and his heart settled down.
She sent a telegram to Pingcheng, reporting safety like Si Xingpei, and also wrote a long letter telling Si Xingpei the whole story.
On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, she received a telegram from Si Xingpei: "I want to hear from you."
Half an hour later, the adjutant came in and said that the division's plane was parked at the racetrack and came to pick up Gu Qingzhou to Pingcheng.
