Chapter 79 Follow Gao Yaofu
Gao Yu did not speak anymore, but just lowered his head to ponder.
Gao Xiaomei’s intuition is indeed very keen. A yamen who has never shorted money suddenly borrowed money from her sister, and there is definitely something wrong with it.
With Gao Yaofu's status in the Gao family, even if Gao Yu comes back, he will not be able to lose his money.
He even said that if he really had no money, he could tell Gao Qiu. As long as he explained the purpose, I believe Gao Qiu would not lose his. After all, Gao Yaofu had passed the exam and had to save the exam. He might become the only person who came from the imperial examination under Gao Qiu.
Although Gao Qiu's brother Gao Shan became a Jinshi, he was separated by a layer after all.
Moreover, for a wealthy family, the weight of a Jinshi is far from enough.
Gao Shen's youngest son Gao Lian is two or three years younger than Gao Yu and is already preparing for the imperial examination three years later.
If Gao Yaofu succeeds this time, he will definitely become the first person in the second generation of Gaofu to pass the Jinshi exam, which is of great significance.
Just for this, Gao Qiu would not treat Gao Yaofu badly.
But Gao Yaofu would rather borrow money from his younger sister than speak to Gao Qiu.
This is a problem... It means that the place where he spends money cannot be seen, otherwise how could he not go to Gao Qiu?
"Fourth Brother!"
Seeing that Gao Yu didn't speak, Gao Xiaomei couldn't help but urge him.
Gao Yu sighed, looked up at Gao Xiaomei, and said softly: "Little sister, how do you know that I will help my third brother?
Since I returned home, my third brother has been deeply hostile to me.
I have been embarrassed several times, but I have all resolved it... In this case, why should I help him?"
"But, but..."
Gao Xiaomei was a little anxious and her eyes were rosy.
"Fourth brother, although there is something wrong with the third brother, he is the third brother after all.
Please don’t hold grudges from the fourth brother. No matter what, we are all a family after all. Even if we are not in harmony, we should help each other when we encounter problems. The third brother is about to save the trial, and I really don’t want him to have another accident at this time.”
This is also the reason why Gao Xiaomei didn’t go to find Gao Qiu.
She was worried that if things got bigger, it might delay Gao Yaofu's future.
Gao Yu thought about it, stood up, and rubbed Gao Xiaomei's head.
"Okay, I understand this."
"That……"
"Don't ask about this anymore, I'll investigate it.
However, I will make it clear first. If things go beyond my ability, I will still report to my father to know."
"That's certain."
Gao Xiaomei burst into tears and nodded.
The eldest and second brothers were not at home, and she really couldn't find anyone else.
If Lu Qi is there, she can investigate through Lu Qi, but now, Lu Qi cleans up the mess in Dongping Mansion.
So, she had to ask Gao Yu for help.
She couldn't tell the reason, but she just felt that Gao Yu should be able to solve the problem.
In her eyes, Gao Yu can be regarded as a legendary figure. He was lost since childhood and wandered around with an old Taoist priest. Then, because the old Taoist priest was killed, he fled from Hangzhou and almost died in Xucheng... but as a result, he showed his power in Xucheng again.
People outside say that the victory of Xucheng lies in Cheng Lin's strategy and Gao Jie's courage and carefulness.
But Gao Xiaomei knew that Gao Yu was the key figure in that great victory.
Now, since Gao Yu agreed to intervene in this matter, I think he will definitely solve the problem. If Gao Yu can't solve it, it's not too late to let Gao Qiu come forward... Anyway, Gao Xiaomei is much more at ease and her smile becomes brighter.

That night, Gao Yaofu did not go home.
However, in Gao Qiu's opinion, this is also normal. Gao Yaofu had a precedent for not returning home at night.
Gao Yu didn't know where Gao Yaofu went. Bianliang was so big that he couldn't find it. So he didn't rush and just waited at home. The next night, Gao Yaofu appeared in Gao's mansion. He looked not very good, his eyes were black, his face was a little pale, and his steps seemed very floating. He looked like he was overly indulging in lust... At the same time, Gao Yu saw that he looked very bad.
"Brother Third, where are you playing? Why are you so tired?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
"It's not that there's nothing to do, it's just that I'm bored. If my brother has a good place to go, I want to play."
Gao Yu said, deliberately revealing the money in the Baina bag.
"Go away, play and go by myself, and I also have to go to study."
Gao Yaofu pushed Gao Yu away and left angrily.
Gao Yu looked at his back, stood with his hands behind his back, and a soft arc was drawn from the corner of his mouth.
There is a problem, there is definitely a problem!
When Gao Yu talked to Gao Yaofu, he could clearly feel that Gao Yaofu was absent-minded. He was very worried and a little panicked. When Gao Yu asked him "where to play", his eyes were even more wandering.
Afterwards, Gao Yu showed his money, and Gao Yaofu's eyes showed a look of desire.
This shows that he is short of money!
At the same time, it also proves that Gao Yaofu must have caused trouble.
Gao Yu has taken the initiative to show his favor, and he can borrow money from Gao Yu with the flow.
But he didn't, maybe it was because of his arrogance, maybe it was because of his condemnation, maybe it was because he looked down on Gao Yu... Maybe he was afraid of disturbing Gao Qiu?
Gao Yu felt that the last possibility was the greatest.
"Fourth brother, what's the situation?"
“There’s a problem.”
Gao Yu said, took out a stack of money and handed it to Gao Xiaomei.
"Fourth brother, what are you doing?"
"If I guess well and my third brother is short of money, he will definitely borrow money from you.
If you give him the money, it will be your last little savings. Then, don’t worry, wait for my news at home.”
Gao Xiaomei suddenly became nervous, "Fourth brother, third brother..."
"Don't worry, I'll check it out.
The third brother is so proud, so he refuses to bow to me. But he can't write two high words in one stroke. No matter how deep the conflict between us is, it's our business. I can bully him, but others can't... So, I will definitely find out."
"Then, please give me the fourth brother!"
Gao Xiaomei nodded repeatedly and turned around and left.
The next day, Gao Yu got up early in the morning.
He habitually opened the full image map in the garden and activated the speeding skill.
"Fourth brother, you guessed it right. Third brother borrowed money from me last night."
Gao Xiaomei ran in from outside, looking panicked.
Gao Yu was sweating heavily, panting and put away the map, and whispered: "What about him now? Are he still at home?"
"I just left the house."
"very good!"
After washing up, Gao Yu called Ma Dazhuang and left Gao Mansion.
This time he did not ride a horse, but walked slowly.
After entering the Bianliang city gate, he took Ma Dazhuang to a street-side shop next to the Zhouqiao.
The shop has a small face, and the steamer at the door is filled with steamed buns.
Steamed buns are also called steamed buns. It is recorded in "Yan Ji Yimou Lu" that in today's customary world, fermenting noodles, with either filling or without filling, are all called steamed buns.
Huang Tingjian's "Fu Weng's Miscellaneous Thoughts" states: Raw rubber cakes, today's steamed buns.
However, it is called steamed buns in Bianliang and cooked cakes in Shandong. The same thing is called differently depending on the region.
The small shop, called Yuyang Mantou, is very famous in the Zhouqiao area.
Gao Yu asked for ten hot steamed buns and leaned against the bridge with Ma Dazhuang, eating while watching the street scenery.
After a while, Chang Xiaoliu came hurriedly.
