Baguazhang was created in the Qing Dynasty. Zeng Lingmei naturally had never seen it before. She thought it was really good-looking and seemed very practical. She couldn't tell that Gu Yezhou could even know such a palm technique. She couldn't help but have a stronger look in her eyes and said with a smile: "Mr. Hu praised it. Mr. Gu's martial arts are much higher than mine. He is indeed one of the best among the escort masters. My father said that you are the number one customer of our escort agency, so naturally he wants to send the best escort master to help you guard the house."

Hu Wanghai was even more happy and grinned and laughed happily: "That's great, Lingzun! With you two guards, my family can rest assured."

One of the children ran over, pulled Gu Yezhou's clothes, and said, "Sir, can you teach me how to practice boxing and feet? I also want to practice your palm techniques."

Hu Wanghai hurriedly scolded: "Yu'er can't mess around! The sir is busy, so how can I teach you?"

The child pouted and returned to his mother.

Zeng Lingmei said: "I will take Mr. Gu to walk around. From now on, he will be responsible for the safety of the granary."

"As soon as I have sex!" Hu Wanghai smiled and held his fists and bowed.

Zeng Lingmei took Gu Yezhou around the inner house, then left the outer house, and finally arrived at the granary. Because Hu Wanghai was a rice merchant selling rice, there was a special grain warehouse. In addition to Gu Yezhou, there were more than a dozen servants guarding the mansion. Zeng Lingmei brought Gu Yezhou to come. These servants were very surprised to see that they were gentle scholars, but they didn't dare to underestimate them and went up to see each other.

Along the way, Zeng Lingmei told Gu Yezhou some lip lyrics that often used to guard the house, that is, slandering, and some skills to deal with thieves. Gu Yezhou had no experience in this area before, and he wrote them one by one in his heart.

After the explanation, Zeng Lingmei went to the inner house.

Gu Yezhou walked the entire Mi Cang and saw that nothing was wrong, so he entered the room on duty. According to Zeng Lingmei's instructions, the guards did not need to patrol all night, they just needed to arrange a warning, and others could sleep. So he called the dozen servants and arranged a group of three people to take turns on duty, and he could investigate at any time.

That night, because it was the first time he was a guard, Gu Yezhou was a little nervous and slept very little. He got up several times to inspect, but there was no movement. He was peaceful all night. The next morning, the escort in charge of the daytime duty of the escort agency came to replace him, and he and Zeng Lingmei returned to the escort agency together.

On the way, Zeng Lingmei and Gu Yezhou still didn't say anything, and Zeng Lingmei didn't ask them how they were last night. She just returned to the escort agency silently.

Ning Sanmei had already gotten up and was sitting on a stool beside the bed in the room, lowering her head, her big dark braid hanging on her chest, her plain hands twisting the ends of her hair, her eyes looked at the ground, and she was thinking about her mind. She heard the sound and looked up quickly. When she saw Gu Yezhou coming in, she quickly threw the braid and stood up: "Sir, are you back? Is it okay?"

"Everything is fine." Gu Yezhou looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong with you? Why are you worried?"

"I had a nightmare last night, dreaming that my mother and the others had no food to eat..." Ning Sanmei's eyes turned red as she said that.

Gu Yezhou said: "You are too worried about your family. Why don't I accompany you to see them?"

A spark of joy flashed in Ning Sanmei's eyes: "Really? Can we go out?"

"Of course, I am an escort, not a servant. As long as I do my job well, I usually have freedom of entry and exit. I have already said this yesterday. You are my maid, not an escort agency, and you can also have freedom of entry and exit."

"Okay, then let's go!"

"Wait! Wait until breakfast is on. Let's see your parents. They are hungry and they always have to give them some food. Just give them breakfast."

Ning Sanmei nodded gratefully, her little nose turned slightly red, and she choked and said, "Thank you sir..."

After a while, the cloud board rang and the time for breakfast was up. The two of them arrived at the canteen. The breakfast was made of white flour steamed buns and pickles. The two of them told the cook that they wanted to get back to eat, but the cook didn't say anything, and gave them two steamed buns each.

The two of them came out, put them in their arms, and went straight to the gate. They said to the gatekeeper, and then went out to the Chenghuang Temple. Their escort agency was not too far from the Chenghuang Temple and could walk.

Along the way, they saw begging victims on both sides of the street, most of whom were unable to beg for food, so they sat there crying with hunger. Ning Sanmei couldn't bear to watch and walked forward with her head down.

Finally arrived at the Chenghuang Temple. The villagers of Gong'e Village were still concentrated in a corner of the temple. Ning Sanmei soon saw her parents and sat in a disheartened state.

When Ning's mother saw her coming, she immediately smiled and asked in a hoarse voice: "Three sister! Are you here? Are you eating? Mom is almost starving to death."

Ning Sanmei quickly took out her two white flour steamed buns, and was snatched by Ning's mother. She opened her mouth wide and swallowed half of them in one bite. With the other hand, she also grabbed the other white flour steamed bun tightly, holding it tightly, and was about to pinch the steamed buns flat.

"Slowly!" Ning Sanmei said anxiously: "Be careful to choke!"

Ning's mother was really choking because she was afraid that others would snatch it away, so she used her hands to stuff the remaining steamed buns into her mouth. As a result, she couldn't swallow them. She rolled her eyes and raised her neck, but she was still trying hard to swallow the whole steamed bun. She could not breathe and was sucking cold air.

Gu Yezhou hurriedly grabbed her hand, and pinched her cheeks with the other hand so that she could not close her mouth. He said to Ning Sanmei: "Hurry! Cut out all the steamed buns in her mouth, otherwise she would be suffocated to death if she couldn't breathe!"

Ning Sanmei and her father hurriedly helped pick the steamed buns in her mouth. The crumbs fell in front of her. Ning's mother shook her head in a hurry, trying to get rid of Gu Yezhou's control, but she couldn't.

The two finally picked out all the steamed buns from Ning's mother's mouth. Ning's father quickly took a dirty gourd, pulled out the plug, and sent it to Ning's mother's mouth: "Drink water! Don't choke!"

Ning's mother quickly grabbed the gourd, drank a few large sips of cold water, pushed the gourd away, and stuffed the broken buns on the ground into her mouth.

Ning Sanmei kept crying when she saw her mother like this. She looked at her pitiful father who was looking at the steamed bun in her mother's hand, and then said to her mother: "Mom, please give another steamed bun for dad to eat?"

Ning's mother didn't care about the broken steamed buns on the ground, and immediately put the steamed buns tightly in her other hand into her mouth. Ning Sanmei grabbed them and snatched them from her: "Mom! Give him some food to her father, he is also very hungry..."

Both mothers and daughters fought hard for the steamed bun. Ning's mother was old and hungry for a long time, and her strength was not as strong as Ning Sanmei. Seeing that the steamed bun was about to be snatched away by her daughter, Ning's mother suddenly raised her hand and scratched Ning Sanmei's simple hand! Suddenly, several blood grooves immediately appeared on Ning Sanmei's smooth back!

Ning Sanmei screamed in surprise and let go of her hand. Ning's mother took advantage of the opportunity to grab the steamed bun, turned around, threw it on the ground, broke off half, stuffed it into her mouth and pressed the other half tightly with her thin body. She kept chewing her mouth with difficulty.

Ning Sanmei did not rob her mother anymore. She covered her hot hands and looked at her mother who was crawling on the ground and swallowing steamed buns, tears rustled down.

Gu Yezhou sighed, took out a steamed bun from his arms and handed it to Ning's father.

Ning's father was stunned for a moment, his eyes immediately shone and he took it with trembling: "Thank you..." He did not rush to put it into his mouth, but just broke off a small half, ate it slowly, and put the remaining steamed buns in his arms.

Ning Sanmei said, "Dad, you eat it."

"The rest is left for your elder brother and second brother. They went out to find food, but I don't know if they found it. If they can't find it, they have to leave some for them."

Gu Yezhou was about to say that there was another one in his arms, but at this moment, a village woman ran over in panic and knelt in front of Gu Yezhou with a gurgle: "Sir! You are here! Save my son..." Dongdong kowtowed.

Gu Yezhou didn't have to look at her face, but just her thin body, and knew that she was the daughter-in-law Luo Jiacai who had once crawled into his quilt to cover her daughter stealing her food. He hurriedly said, "What's wrong? Sister-in-law, get up and talk!"

The village was not aware of her quilt from Gu Yezhou, except Mo Huaixiang, and no one else knew about her, including Ning Sanmei. Seeing her pitiful, she was forced to quilt from Gu Yezhou because of her life, it was understandable, so Gu Yezhou was still very polite.

Jiacai's wife cried and said, "My son can't pull out the shit when he eats bran and vegetables. He has a stomachache and is almost dying! We sent him to the hospital because he has no money and was driven out. You treat my man's legs very well, so you can treat it and save my son."

Gu Yezhou said in a deep voice: "Where is your son?"

Jiacai's wife turned around and pointed: "It's there."

"take me!"

Jiacai's wife quickly got up, kept saying thank you, and took Gu Yezhou and Ning Sanmei to a corner. She saw a three or four-year-old child, curled up like a shrimp, rolling on the ground in a constant state, and moaning hoarsely. It was the youngest child of the Luo Family who came to his stilt house to ask for food. Luo Jiacai, who had broken legs, lay on a torn quilt, looking helplessly at his painful son.

The half-girl of the Luo Family Cai family sat next to her brother, comforting him constantly, but there was nothing she could do. When she saw Gu Yezhou coming, she was surprised without any need. She quickly stood up and walked aside.

Gu Yezhou squatted down and asked the child: "Where is uncomfortable?"

"Stomach hurts..., it hurts..." Then he opened his mouth to retreat, but couldn't vomit anything.

“When did it start to hurt?”
