Chapter 389 Huai 46
Mr. Qin knew that they had co all night and must be very concerned about this matter. Without delay, he told them how he found out that Mr. Lu was a runaway slave and what happened back then.
What was Mr. Lus na when he was painting the boat in Linglong? Gu Jinli asked.
Mr. Lu has two nas. He used to be called Lu Zhudan. After he beca rich, he changed his na to Lu Xiangfu. But they didnt know what na he used when he was painting boats in Linglong. Mr. Xue didnt say it in the letter.
Mr. Xue thought for a while and said: "He doesn't have a na. He is just a handyman. All the handyn in Linglong Huafang all start with the character Huai and use numbers as their nas. His na is easier to rember. He is called Huai Shiliu. I heard my master call him Huai Si Liu."
Gu Jinli asked again: "Then what was his na before he sold himself to Linglong Boating? Do you know?"
Mr. Xue shook his head: "I'm not sure. I just know that Huai Siliu was a beggar in the city before he entered Linglong Huafang. After living in the city for a few months, he sold himself to Linglong Huafang without asking for a penny. "
"Many of the servants on Linglong Huafang are here like this, and Huafang will not investigate them in depth. Mr. Lu is a very inconspicuous person in Linglong Huafang. He just does odd jobs, flatters the guests, and sotis gives him free gifts. When guests return ho, they sotis swim to please them in exchange for rewards.
He added: "Servants like Huai Siliu and the others are indispensable little people in Linglong Huafang. It is difficult to rember them."
Gu Jinli frowned when he heard this: "It would be too easy for a person like this to escape when Linglong Huafang encounters a disaster."
She thought of sothing and imdiately asked Mr. Xue: "Grandpa Xue, you said that Mr. Lu and his friends would swim for the guests. Didn't many people drown while swimming for the guests' pleasure?"
Mr. Xue nodded: "Indeed, those who do this must swim according to the requirents of the guests. Those guests are all children of wealthy families. They are obsessed with life and do not pay much attention to human life. Many guests will let them swim. People holding their breath in the water are used to make bets to see whether the swimming ti you bet will be longer or the swimming ti I bet will be longer. Because of this kind of competition, the handyman in the painting boat will die every month Two or three more.
After listening to this, Gu Jinli had already guessed Mr. Lu's thod of escape.
Finally, she looked at Mr. Xue and said, "Grandpa Xue, we need witnesses. Please co with us to the county governnt office so that you can identify Mr. Lu."
Mr. Xue didn't want to go, but Gu Jinli had helped him and was very kind to him. After hesitating for a mont, he finally agreed: "You guys wait a minute. I want to go back to see the young master and arrange things at ho before I can go." Co with you."
Gu Jinli and the others naturally would not stop him and said hurriedly: "As always, please do as you please, we are waiting for you."
Mr. Xue nodded and went to the backyard.
And Gu Jinli told Gu Jinan his guess: "Mr. Lu set up a trap when he first went to Linglong Painting Boat. He did not use his real na. Instead, he first beca a beggar and then used a false na to enter Linglong Painting Boat. And When Linglong Huafang was in trouble, he must have escaped by swimming. He was just a dispensable servant. Even if he escaped by swimming, the officers and soldiers would not bother to investigate and would just treat him as drowned."
Mr. Qin nodded when he heard this: "Xiaoyu's words make sense...this Mr. Lu is not simple. He thinks far and is thoughtful, so he is difficult to deal with."
Gu Jinan asked Gu Jinli: "Xiaoyu, are you telling this because...?"
Gu Jinli said: "Mr. Lu's matter will definitely be heard in court. I am a girl and it is not convenient for to go to court. If necessary, I have to go alone, brother."
Mr. Qin will definitely not go to court because of the secrets he carries.
Mr. Lu is very tricky and difficult to deal with, and he will definitely deny it at all costs. All you have to do is kill him, use a fake na, sell yourself into the exquisite boat, and then swim away.
"If he denies it, he will definitely use the excuse that he can't swim..." Gu Jinli laughed: "Then let the county magistrate try him on the spot. When he is dying, Mr. Lu will instinctively swim even if he doesn't want to admit it. Water saves itself.
Mr. Lu is a ruthless person and may even die to save the Lu family.
But when a person is dying, his body's instinct will be higher than his brain's thinking. At that ti, as long as Mr. Lu swims, his lies will be self-defeating. Gu Jinan nodded when he heard this: "Don't worry, Xiaoyu, brother will rember it."
Mr. Qin had been listening beside him. When he heard this, he glanced at Gu Jinli. This girl is very smart. Sotis she is not as smart as a half-grown child... Erlang hates Xiaoyu very much. He thinks Xiaoyu will harm Sanlang and make Sanlang lose his wife and family. s help.
But Saburo's reply was very tough, and he also liked Saburo's reply very much.
For those of the wife family and not the wife family, it depends on who you marry. If you marry an ungrateful person or a fool, it is better to marry a smart and capable country girl.
Two quarters of an hour later, Mr. Xue returned to the main room in the front yard and said to them: "Let's go."
A group of four people took a mule cart again and ran towards the county seat.
It was already dark now, and there was a curfew in the county. Fortunately, Shang Xiucai had followed Jiang County Lieutenant to find Magistrate Xu, and inford Magistrate Xu that Mr. Lu was a runaway slave.
Magistrate Xu was overjoyed after hearing this. He felt that the Gu family was really a lucky general. Ever since he t them, these achievents had been piled on his head one by one.
Xu County Magistrate imdiately asked Master Tian to go to the city gate to pick up the person with his handwritten letter.
Shang Xiucai also ca with Yang Bantou and Luo Wu. On the tower, he saw a mule cart approaching and imdiately asked, "But An Ge'er?"
Gu Jinan heard Shang Xiucai's voice and said happily: "Sir, he is a student."
Shang Xiucai was overjoyed and imdiately inford Master Tian.
Master Tian asked the soldiers guarding the gate to open the city gate, and Gu Jinan and the others were able to enter the city.
As soon as the mule cart stopped, Master Tian asked, "Did you bring Xue Mingyu?" This was a witness, and nothing could be done without him.
Gu Jinan bowed to Master Tian and said, "Master Tian, Grandpa Xue is in the car."
"Okay." Master Tian said, "Let's go to the Yan now."
It was not easy for a girl in Gu Jinli to go to the Yan. When passing by Jiang Mansion, she was sent to Jiang Mansion to rest.
Mrs. Jiang knew that she had not eaten, so she called her to her yard and had a al.
While they were eating, Gu Jinan and the others had already arrived at the county governnt office and t County Magistrate Xu.
When County Magistrate Xu saw Gu Jinan, he laughed and said, "You are the youngster of the Gu family. You are not bad. You are a talented person, with the beauty of magnolia and green bamboo."
Gu Jinan quickly bowed to the county magistrate and said respectfully: "Students pay homage to the county magistrate. The county magistrate was very complintary."
Magistrate Xu was very happy to see that he was not only good-looking, but also knowledgeable, and had a humble attitude. Such a young man was very rare, but it was a pity that his background was so poor, and his family was full of mud-legs for several generations. Otherwise, he really wanted to recruit Gu Jin'an as his wife's son-in-law.
