Chapter 123: Notice Li Xiaoyu wants to run away
"northwest?"
"Well," Li Fugui said, "My master's ancestral home is over there. After I talked to you last time, I went to ask for his resignation. He also saw that I had no interest in his daughter, but he thought I was very talented."
"He really wanted to take me in as his apprentice, but he finally put forward a condition."
Hearing this, Li Xiaoyu probably guessed something in his mind.
She asked, "Are you going to the northwest?"
Li Fugui nodded seriously: "They fled from there to our place back then. It's very stable there now, but he is too old to walk anymore."
"My daughter is not in good health, and they can't go back, so they hope I can go back in their place."
This is also equivalent to a heritage.
As he said this, Fugui grinned and said indifferently: "You also know that my only relative left in this world is my grandma. Once she is gone, it doesn't matter where I live."
"So I agreed, and my grandma agreed too."
northwest...
Li Fugui continued to speak, and Li Xiaoyu tilted his head to look towards the room, thinking about the pros and cons in his mind.
Given Gu Fei's character, if he says he won't be killed, then he really won't do it.
There are about three months left before the six months he mentioned when he was sleepwalking. As long as we live in peace with him during the next period of time, we can send him away.
My life is completely saved.
But as soon as he left, the people behind Li Wu would definitely investigate. He would just go out and hide for a year or two, and the place was in a neighboring country, so they wouldn't be that easy to him.
This is also a solution.
Thinking of Gu Fei being in the room, and his sense of inspiration, her eyes dimmed a little.
This cannot be known to anyone...
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Li Fugui gently pushed her shoulder and said, "Xiao Yu, do you want to go? The name of that village is the same as ours."
Recovering her thoughts, she also laughed and said, "Your last name is Li?"
"Yes, isn't it a coincidence?"
Li Xiaoyu laughed and said, "It's quite a coincidence, but I don't plan to go."
She stood up and walked towards the kitchen. The tall man exclaimed, then followed her, "Why don't you go? Gu Fei is not feeling well, let's go together, I can still take care of you."
Li Xiaoyu couldn't tell Fugui the reason.
She scooped some water into the pot and changed the subject: "Sit down for a while, I'll boil some water and make you a cup of tea."
When Li Fugui heard that there was tea to drink, he suddenly became interested. In addition to pastries, he also liked to drink tea, but he had never had much money.
I can't even bear to have the worst drink in the city.
Every time he passed by a teahouse, he would stand outside and smell it for a while before leaving.
"You got rich? You even bought tea."
Li Xiaoyu chuckled twice, "What kind of fortune? I helped someone by accident last time, and he gave it to me as a gift."
The fewer people who know Gu Fei's identity, the better.
I can only lie to hide my wealth.
Li Fugui was also a persistent person. After Li Xiaoyu changed the subject, he waited for him to remember and brought the subject back, "Xiaoyu, you haven't told me why you don't want to go to the northwest."
She threw the firewood in her hand into the stove, and seeing how persistent he was, she sighed in her heart.
Why are all of you so stubborn?
She made up an excuse: "Gu Fei has difficulty walking, and he will have to cross mountains and rivers to get there. He is not in good health, what if he dies on the road?"
Seeing that Li Fugui was thinking seriously, she continued to add fuel to the fire.
"Once he dies, I'll be a widow. What's the point of going to the northwest then? Don't you think so?"
Li Xiaoyu is very good at using rhetorical questions.
Li Fugui was really confused by her. He scratched the back of his head and said, "You are right. I originally wanted to lead you to live a good life. If you torture him to death, how can we live a good life then?"
"That's right, Fugui, just go. When you're settled, ask someone to send a letter back to let me know that you're safe."
When the water boiled, she took a bowl and put the tea leaves in it and mixed it with the boiling water.
He and Li Fugui went to the main hall one after another.
As soon as the two sat down, Gu Fei came out of the room, his lazy eyes without a trace of expression.
Li Xiaoyu could tell at a glance that he was pretending to be blind, so he just let him go.
Placing one of the tea bowls on the spot where Gu Fei usually sat, she said softly, "Husband, you're awake."
"Hmm," a low word, without any emotion.
Li Fugui greeted him, and the man sitting on the bench smiled and nodded, then moved his thin lips: "Brother Li, I just heard something in the room. You are going to the neighboring country in the future."
He used an affirmative sentence. Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoyu was suddenly shocked.
Suddenly, a feeling of panic lingered in my heart.
The three of them were sitting in different positions, and couldn't pull Li Fugui's sleeve, so she kicked to the left with her toes.
I hope Li Fugui can have some tacit understanding and reveal less information.
Li Fugui looked confused after being kicked. He tilted his head to look at the smiling woman and scratched the back of his head in confusion.
From this we can see that the two of them have some tacit understanding, but it's not much.
I really don't understand what the little fish means.
He replied honestly: "Yeah."
Gu Fei watched the interaction between the two of them. He placed his hand across the table and rubbed his thumb cap twice with his index finger without making any expression.
Pretending to be a gentleman, he smiled and said, "Although I am not in good health now, I used to travel between several countries. I don't know where Brother Li is going. Maybe I have been there before and can tell you about the local customs and practices."
Just one sentence burned Li Xiaoyu's hand.
She quickly took her hands away from the bowl and let them hang at her sides, trying to pretend nothing had happened.
In fact, he was so nervous that he crumpled the corners of his clothes into a ball with both hands.
Gu Fei looked like an educated person. Li Fugui first glanced at his good friend, who was staring at the tea in the bowl with her head down, looking as if she had given up hope.
He looked again at the man opposite him who had a refined temperament and gentle manners.
He changed what he wanted to say and said, "My master only said that there is a village with the surname Li, but I don't know exactly where or which village it is."
"I will tell Brother Gu when Master tells me later."
Hearing this, Gu Fei caught a glimpse of the woman sitting in the main seat, who looked slightly relieved.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Li Fugui with a faint smile on his face: "Okay."
The three of them chatted for a while.
After drinking tea, Li Fugui wanted to go back. Li Xiaoyu went to see him off. Watching them leave the house, the smile on Gu Fei's face gradually disappeared.
He stood at the door of the main room, watching the figure of the woman disappearing outside the dilapidated wall.
His face gradually became gloomy.
I just want to run.
Not knowing that Gu Fei had noticed her intention, Li Xiaoyu accompanied her friend and the two walked to a very far distance. She only stopped when she was sure that Gu Fei could not hear her.
Then he whispered to Li Fugui about the people in the northwest.
Seeing this, Li Fugui was surprised and asked, "Aren't you... not going to go?"
