A lucky wife born again from a farm family

In the living room in the front yard, the government officials guarding Lao Gu's house were eating and drinking.

Ma Yamen was drinking and eating meat while saying: "You don't know how good Gu Jin'an is in life. He gave the brothers thirty taels of silver as a wedding gift. When the brothers returned to the Yamen, his servants also brought them with them The guys from Futailou brought us three tables of banquets. One table was given to the three team leaders, one table was given to the brothers from Qingdao, and the other table was given to us."

This Ma Yamen is Xiao Ma Yamen, a clan brother of Ma Bantou. He helped in the ceremony room during the government examination, and came back to guard the old Gu family after the government examination.

Previously, he was not guarding the old Gu family, but guarding the Tongzhifu. However, Zhang Sanjin had recently made great achievements. The prefect looked at him with admiration and gave Zhang Sanjin the good job of guarding the Tongzhifu. So he was transferred to guard the old Gu family. .

Therefore, after receiving the wedding money, Ma Yamen laughed at Zhang Sanjin: "Zhang Sanjin is so envious of me that he secretly sent a young man to find out how much wedding money I got? Oh, I just slapped the money on the table, thirty taels , did you see clearly! Xiao Qiangzi was so shocked that his eyes widened."

"Hahaha, Brother Ma is very lucky. One trip is worth a year's salary." The government servants who followed Ma Yamen to guard the house said, complimenting Ma Yamen.

Ma Yamen felt very comfortable, but his clan brother told him that recently Zhang Sanjin learned that the master of the government valued him and asked him not to go too far. Ma Yamen took out two taels of silver and asked someone to order an ordinary banquet and send it to the prefect to Zhang Sanjin and the others.

"Let them also be happy, don't say that I am stingy." Ma Yamen said.

"Hey, I'll do it right away." After a young government servant took the money, he left the house to order a banquet.

"Brother Ma is forthright and generous," said the government servants at the same table.

Ma Yamen was in a good mood and was even happier after hearing the good words. But before he was happy for a long time, a woman hurriedly ran over and said, "Master Chao, Master Chao is not good!"

Ma Yamen frowned and said, "Why are you panicking? Master Cha, I'm very fine. What happened? But those crazy people in the old Gu family are making trouble again?"

The mother-in-law said: "Yes, it's Gu Chengxian. He, he, he hit the wall and was lying on the ground motionless. He is probably dead."

The mother-in-law was responsible for keeping an eye on Gu Chengxian, Gu Youlu, Qian Guangzong and his son, the prisoners suffering from the disease. When she wandered to Gu Chengxian's yard, she just shouted twice into the house when she heard a bang and something hit the wall. On.

The mother-in-law was startled, thinking that Gu Chengxian had fallen, and continued to shout into the house, but Gu Chengxian never responded.

The mother-in-law felt something was wrong and hurriedly opened the window. Looking through the window, she saw Gu Chengxian lying in a pool of blood.

"There's so much blood, it's almost flowing into a river." The old woman said fearfully, urging Ma Yamen and the others: "Everyone, please go and have a look. I'll find a burlap bag for you to collect the body."

The mother-in-law believed that Gu Chengxian was dead, so she went to find the burlap bag.

"Unlucky! Can't the old Gu family just calm down? I've only eaten half of the banquet." Ma Yamen was so angry that he cursed, but if Gu Chengxian died, they couldn't ignore it. They could only get up and greet the Yamen: " Come on, let’s go take a look. If he’s dead, report him to the prefect. If he’s not dead, let him live for a few more days.”

Felons like Gu Chengxian who were suffering from serious diseases were just dawdling around. It didn't matter whether they lived or died, so the government officials were not nervous.

But they didn't know that it was all Gu Chengxian's pretense.

Gu Chengxian contracted a serious disease, and bribed Lin Laoba and Gu Changfa to stuff the food into the dry food tested by the prefecture. He knew that the prefect Gu would not let him go. Since he was destined to die, he must do it before he died. The government officials were buried with him.

During this period of time, he had received a lot of bad breath from the government officials, and he had to take this tone.

When Ma Yamen and the others came to the yard where Gu Chengxian was imprisoned, they did not go in rashly. Instead, they asked a Yamen Yamen to put on old clothes and a sack, wrap them tightly, and go in to see if Gu Chengxian was dead.

"Seventeen, be careful. Just poke him with a stick to see if he's dead. Don't touch him. He's been smelling bad these past few days. The disease is obviously serious." Ma Yamen told Liu Seventeen.

"Hey, Uncle Ma, don't worry, I understand." Liu Shiqi is not very old. He is a junior yamen servant who just came in last year. He does some of the hard work.

After he entered the house, he did not approach Gu Chengxian. He poked him with a stick. When he saw that he didn't move, he gritted his teeth and reached out to Gu Chengxian's nose. He was afraid of being infected, so he quickly retracted his hand and said: " Uncle Ma, he, he seems to be really dead."

"What does it mean?" Ma Yamen frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Let's check again."

But Liu Shiqi was afraid. He had just gotten married and didn't even have a son yet. What would he do if he contracted the disease?

But Liu Shiqi was even more afraid of losing his job, so he had to use his hands to check Gu Chengxian's breath again. When he saw that there was no breath coming out, he said happily: "Uncle Ma, we found out clearly. He is really dead. You can come in and collect the body."

However, Liu Shiqi didn't know that Gu Chengxian was not dead at all, he was just holding his breath and pretending to be out of breath.

After hearing this, Ma Yamen was relieved.

"Master, here comes the sack." The old lady found a big sack and handed it to Ma Yamen.

The yamen officer Ma gave the sack to the yamen officer next to him: "You go in with the sack and get Gu Chengxian to the yard with the 17th gang. After the prefect gives the order, we will probably burn him in the yard."

Hualiu disease cannot be moved to other places, it is best to burn it on the spot.

"Yes." After the yamen servant put on his old clothes and wrapped himself like a rice dumpling, he took the sack and entered the house. After struggling with Liu Shiqi for a while, he lifted Gu Chengxian onto the sack and pulled the sack. Four Corners dragged him out of the house and placed him in the yard.

But as soon as Gu Chengxian was dragged into the yard, he suddenly became violent and kept spitting at the government officials.

When the woman saw her earlier, she rolled and rushed to the courtyard door: "Run away quickly, this bastard is not dead, he is just pretending, he wants to make us sick!"

Ma Yamen shouted hurriedly: "Back off, back off, don't let his spit spit on us."

He reached out and grabbed Liu Shiqi and another yamen servant who were closest to Gu Chengxian, and dragged them straight back.

Gu Chengxian's face was covered with blood, he stared at the government officials with ferocious eyes, and continued to spit at them.

After seeing that the saliva could not be sprayed on them, he simply rushed towards the Ma Yamen and laughed loudly: "You bunch of low-class dog slaves, I made you look down on me and made you laugh at me for having Hualiu disease. Today I want you." Taste the taste of this disease!"

Gu Chengxian's crazy look of dying together frightened all the government officials.

Ma Yamen was very frightened, but he was the boss of this group of Yamen. At the critical moment, he pulled out the knife and slashed at Gu Chengxian who was rushing towards him.

With a click, Gu Chengxian was cut down to the ground with one knife.
