238 Chapter 2 Picking up the treasure ([-])
"Of course not. The county magistrate has the final say." The Tan family and the Wang family shook their heads hastily. If they failed to help Tan Liu and Wang Da, they might not have been sent to prison by themselves.

The village head nodded, and looked at Bai Qingli: "Master Bai, it's already dawn, look, did you let everyone go away?"

"Okay." Bai Qingli smiled slightly, turned around and said to everyone, "Everyone has worked hard all night, so go back and rest quickly."

"Finally I can go back, I'm so sleepy I can't keep my eyes open!"

"That's right, but now that this matter has been clarified, we can all sleep in peace."

"Why do you sleep? You have to go to the ground to plant rice seedlings after you go back to eat. You can't be late for planting rice seedlings, otherwise the crops will be less harvested."

"Yeah, hurry up and go to the field. My family has an extra two acres of land today. I can't do it if I don't plant it sooner!"

"Oh, don't worry, my family will help you after planting. Just like in previous years, we helped each other in previous years. It was because of some misunderstandings about some small things last year that we have not communicated with each other. Now this matter is over. Now that the explanation is clear, we will have more contacts in the future as before."

"You're right. I have to thank Mr. Bai for this matter. If he hadn't said that he would write it into the script, I wouldn't want to express the resentment in my heart. Mr. Bai, it is a blessing for our village!"

The villagers left the courtyard of Gu Xiaobei's house while discussing, and went home. After eating and resting for a while, they all went to the ground one after another, and everything returned to the orderly life of yesterday.

Although there are two more dark circles under the eyes, everyone has a bright smile on their faces, because the knots in their hearts have been untied, and the villagers get along more harmoniously.

Seeing that the villagers had left one after another, Gu Datian heaved a sigh of relief, and asked Gu Sanlin with some doubts: "Sanlin, how did you go to the city last night? You didn't drive a carriage, did you? It's very important, but you can't go in vain, otherwise the gain will outweigh the loss."

Bai Qingli told him last night that Gu Sanlin went to the city to report the crime overnight, but there were so many people at that time, he hadn't had time to ask how Gu Sanlin got to the city, but he kept thinking about it .Since the car crash happened last year, Gu Datian has never let his brothers and sisters drive a carriage at night. This time he thought that Gu Sanlin was going to drive a carriage, so he asked, if Gu Sanlin answered yes, he would definitely Teach him a lesson.

"No, I went on foot." Gu Sanlin saw that his elder brother was almost furious, and immediately shook his head and explained: "I lit the lamp and went with Ling Muchen."

"Then why didn't Brother Ling come back with you?" Gu Xiaobei asked suspiciously, when Gu Sanlin and the people from the county government came in just now, there was no sign of Ling Muchen.

"It was almost dawn when we arrived in the city. I went to the yamen to report the case myself, and then asked Ling Muchen to go to the restaurant to tell Brother Nuomi that we would go to the restaurant sooner or later and let them open it first. Later Ling Mu Chen lived directly in the restaurant, and I came back with the people from the yamen alone." Gu Sanlin said.

"You guys are very thoughtful!" Gu Xiaobei praised.

"Okay, we've been tired all night, and we're hungry. Let's make something to eat before cleaning up the house." He smiled and said to his younger brothers and sisters, and then said to Bai Qingli: " Thanks to today's matter, otherwise it would not have gone so smoothly."

"This is what it should be. Your business is my business." Bai Qingli smiled slightly.

Everyone laughed tacitly.

Gu Xiaobei touched his nose, and said to Gu Datian, "I'll go see if Xiaobao is awake?"

"Go ahead, brother is going to cook breakfast first." Gu Datian nodded, and then asked Bai Qingli: "Do you want to stay and have breakfast together before going back?"

"Okay." Bai Qingli nodded.

Gu Xiaobei ran back to her room in no time. When she returned to the room, she was a little surprised to see Xiaobao still asleep. This little treasure is really easy to raise. Last night, there was so much noise outside that he could sleep like this. fragrant.

She was not in a hurry to wake up Xiaobao, she tidied up the things in the room a little, then went out, walked into the kitchen and said to Gu Datian: "Brother, it's too late today, so don't cook porridge or rice, just go down." The noodles are ready, the next noodles are coming soon."

"Okay, I didn't think of doing this unless you said it." Gu Datian had just started the fire, and when he heard Gu Xiaobei say this, he immediately agreed, and put the pot on the stove to boil water.

Gu Xiaobei walked in and saw that Gu Datian didn't see anyone else, so he couldn't help asking, "Where are my second and third brothers and Bai Qingli?"

"Your second brother and third brother both went to take a shower, and Master Bai also went back to wash up." Gu Datian replied while lighting a fire on the nearby stove.

"Where's my sister-in-law? Are you still up?" Gu Xiaobei asked again.

After all, Mu Caixia was more likely to get sleepy when she was pregnant, so even though she was still worried last night, she still couldn't beat the drowsiness and fell asleep. It was Gu Datian who carried her back to the room to sleep.

"I don't know. I haven't returned to my room yet. I don't know if I've thought about it." Gu Datian shook his head.

"It's good to let her sleep more. Pregnant women need to take good care of themselves." Gu Xiaobei said while lifting a clean wooden bucket.

Gu Datian turned his head and saw her going out with a wooden bucket, so he asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I also want to take a shower, so I brought up the water first, and then I can take a shower when the third brother and the others are done." Gu Xiaobei turned around with a smile.

"Put it down, don't go, let your third brother come out and ask them to help, and you can't take a cold shower. Although it's March, it's still quite cold. Be careful to get sick from the cold, your third brother They have rough skin and thick flesh and are not afraid of the cold, you can’t do it, your health is not good, you can’t take cold water.” While muttering, Gu Datian rushed over and snatched the wooden barrel from Gu Xiaobei’s hand.

"But I feel like my whole body is smelly if I don't take a bath from last night to now, and I dare not approach people." Gu Xiaobei frowned. I feel uncomfortable all over, not to mention it was raining last night. Although I changed clothes, I still feel uncomfortable.

"It's okay, I'm heating hot water for you, you can wash it after a while." Gu Datian said with a smile.

"Brother is right, why does our little sister stink? Even if you don't take a bath for three days, it still smells good!" Gu Erye came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, heard what they said in the yard, and immediately interjected.

"Second brother! You don't feel ashamed when you say this, I feel ashamed." Gu Xiaobei walked out of the kitchen, chased after Gu Erye and slapped her.
