Chapter 345 Promise to Give Him
Chapter 345 Promise to Give Him
......
After a long time.
The two began to calm down slowly.
An Yue pursed her lips and asked, "What can it change?"
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said, "This matter involves a lot. I can't guarantee how it will change the entire Yongchuan County. But I will try my best to maximize its usefulness."
An Yue asked, "Are you going to take this thing with you to the capital?"
"Yes, my father is the prefectural magistrate, and his official rank is the sixth grade."
"Last time you were at the Zhao residence, you probably heard what my uncle Zhao Zhubu told you. At that time, the imperial court sent people to thoroughly investigate the local tax situation. At that time, my father was assigned to assist the special envoy to visit the tax collection points in the towns of Yongchuan County."
"After arriving in Yongchuan County, they finally found out the local tax situation after many investigations. They had planned to take the results of the investigation back to Beijing to report, but in the end they were framed."
Gu Mingchuan took a deep breath and continued, "I came here this time hoping that Miss An Yue would hand it over to me."
"Once I get this, I will go to the capital and present it to the emperor, hoping to clear my father's name."
An Yue looked at Gu Mingchuan's determined eyes. She didn't say anything else, but fell into deep thought.
She thought about it carefully and realized that with his father being a sixth-rank official, he should have had a better future.
Now his family is broken and he is one of the pitiful people in the final analysis.
An Yue often thought about the pendant in her spare time.
She just couldn't understand why the original owner's father was so determined to guard it.
For Yu Anyue at the moment, the pendant is of no use to her. She just needs to make sure it doesn't fall into the hands of thieves.
Gu Mingchuan wanted to get it many times, and the pendant was indeed of great significance to him.
Furthermore, if those people who were secretly searching for it knew that the thing was still in his hands, he might be in danger of being killed.
Also, after spending many times together, An Yue discovered that Gu Mingchuan was not a very kind person, but at least he was not a bad person.
It was just now that An Yue remembered the shocked look on his face when he looked at her after she rescued him on the road and brought him home.
I think at that moment he recognized himself as the person he was looking for.
Later, he deliberately stayed and appeared several times, which meant he was approaching intentionally, and his main purpose of approaching was to get the pendant.
Thinking of this, An Yue felt extremely uncomfortable.
She folded her arms in front of her and asked Gu Mingchuan seriously, "Can I trust you?"
Gu Mingchuan answered sincerely: "In a sense, we are all relatives of the victims, poor people whose families have been destroyed because of this, and we also have a common enemy."
As he said, if this pendant is given to him, it will help him to eradicate those corrupt officials and thieves, get rid of harm to the people, and avenge his parents, so it should naturally be given to him.
An Yue looked up at him and said with a firm look in her eyes: "Are you sure you can hand it over to the emperor in person?"
Gu Mingchuan nodded solemnly: "Believe me."
An Yue nodded slightly and said, "I can give you that thing, but... I have something else that I would like to ask for your help."
When Gu Mingchuan heard that An Yue agreed to give it to him, his expression became excited.
He asked quickly: "Just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it without hesitation."
"Here I have a letter from all nations, and I hope you can hand it over to the emperor personally."
Gu Mingchuan scratched his head and asked, "Book of All Cities?"
"That's right. This book of all nations does not conflict with that thing. In fact, it can even prove the facts proved by that thing."
After hearing what An Yue said, Gu Mingchuan naturally understood the contents of the Book of All Peoples.
"Sure, no problem."
After the deal was settled, Gu Mingchuan followed closely behind An Yue, and the two of them walked towards the west end of the village, carrying baskets on their backs.
Starting from the east end of the village, An Yue and Gu Mingchuan didn't speak to each other along the way.
On the way, they met many villagers who were farming. When the villagers saw An Yue, they all took the initiative to say hello.
Just then, Li Wu's wife was sowing seeds in the field beside the road. When she saw An Yue, she immediately called out, "Girl Yue, how come you have time to come to the west end of the village today?"
"Aunt, I came here to ask all the uncles and grandpas for some vegetable seeds. Now that the drought is over, it's time to plant some vegetables in the fields!"
Li Wu's wife smiled and waved at An Yue, saying, "Come, come, come to my aunt."
An Yue walked towards her, while Gu Mingchuan stood on the road waiting for An Yue.
Li Wu's wife walked to the edge of the field, took out a few small bamboo tubes and walked up to An Yue, preparing to give some of the various vegetable seeds to An Yue.
She smiled and said, "Yueyue, Auntie has some water spinach, cabbage, and winter melon seeds. I'll give you some!"
An Yue ran to a nearby place, picked up a dry bamboo, cut it into pieces with a "clang clang", and made a few simple bamboo tubes.
Li Wu's wife gave some seeds of various vegetables. After An Yue collected the seeds, she used bamboo leaves to tightly block the mouth of the bamboo tube.
An Yuexi smiled and thanked him: "Okay, okay, thank you very much, Auntie."
"Well! Take it and plant it quickly! Yueyue, don't be polite to your aunt! If you want to thank someone, it should be your aunt who should thank Yueyue."
"Then I'll take it back and plant it, so I won't bother you while you work."
"Okay, okay, if Yueyue doesn't have enough, just come to my house and get some. I have some left over."
"Okay, okay!" An Yue waved to Li Wu's wife, then walked towards the main road.
An Yue and Gu Mingchuan were cutting grass for pigs as they walked towards the east end of the village.
Gu Mingchuan said: "I didn't expect you to be so popular in the village!"
An Yue smiled complacently: "Of course."
After this natural disaster, Anyue also underwent subtle changes in the villagers' hearts.
The two came to a wasteland beside the road. An Yue put down the backpack and squatted down to cut grass for the pigs.
Gu Mingchuan at the side also picked up the sickle and learned to cut grass for the pigs like An Yue.
The two of them were busy all the time, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
An Yue asked tentatively: "When are you going to leave?"
"Let's go early tomorrow morning!"
"it is good."
"That...maybe..."
"What's wrong?"
Gu Mingchuan paused: "No, nothing."
What he meant was that this time, they would be separated by life and death, and it was possible that they would never see each other again.
At this time, under the blue sky and white clouds, the withered weeds in the wasteland swayed gently in the breeze.
Pig grass is really hard to find after the drought, but fortunately a lot of tender grass has grown recently.
It was almost noon.
An Yue and Gu Mingchuan finally filled the two backpacks. They carried the backpacks and prepared to go home.
The scorching sun was shining overhead at noon, and a light breeze brought a slight coolness.
The two returned home and put the basket under the eaves.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw my sister-in-law Meng Xiuer and grandmother preparing lunch in the kitchen.
